Make the game fun for newbies

Hello guys,
You might have seen my previous posts about matchmaking and how it isn't fair and all that...
i'm an mk3 player now soon to be mk4 with tier 3 rares...
I've been playing for quite some time now, and I've noticed some things..
1.) The total mk of each team may be equal, give or take a few, but the match isn't fair
Why?
When i go into a match, the typical range of mk is 2-4, sometimes i see an mk1 or mk5, my health is at 2400 as a shooter, when i see an mk1, typical health is at 700-900, i obviously go for him, i can take him down in 2-3hits...
Why is this important?
I won yes...but imagine how that player felt...he died 30 secs into the game..
Please don't tell me that he should have hidden, this is battlebay not hide and seek
2.) upgrading mks take a lot of time, that time allows you to accumulate powerful weapons and duplicates, upgrade and evolve them...the difference in item slots between an mk2 and 3 or mk3 and 4 may not be that big, but the higher mk has had the time to gain more powerful weapons..
So what? The total mk is still equal...
Putting an mk5 against a team of mk2&3 (e.g 2,3,3,3,3 against 5,3,2,2,2),
Those team have equal mk's, but i can assure you, the mk5 will smoke the other team

I'm winning most of my games now, but everytime I get matched up with an mk1, i feel sorry for the guy, cos if he doesnt hide, he will die immediately, I don't think it's fun for him either way.

So with that said, i hope they make battlebay noob friendly

 

On my early days playing BB, this never happen. I could only play against 1 mk higher ship (not 2 or more mks higher ship). What happen to previous match making system devs?

 

Exactly. This is the thing the "you should be more cautious" people miss. Sure, you can do that. But if someone selected Battle Bay because they were hoping for a fun little combat game then hiding behind a rock isn't likely to tickle their fancy... particularly when they find out they are strongly penalized for their success.

I assume Rovio are not complete idiots. That means they know they've got a problem. I suspect the rub is that the real fix involves a nearly total overhaul to their economic system. As things sit, it is simply too profitable to tank.

 

It's still the same. It's just that because the game is getting older, there are more higher level players than low level players (not infamy, but captain level)
