MatchMaking & more

I’ve gone from pb of 3208, season top of 2867 to 1987 so uninstalled as going on a 5 day losing streak is BS! We all have bad days but losing for 5 days in a row with 2-3 hours break in between losing streaks is a flawed game.

 

someone to explain to me how matchmaking works here ...

 

Okay so im at 4,300 infamy and the rest of my team mates are 3,600-3,700. We are up against a top 10 player with 5k+ infamy, followed by his second best team mate that has 4,800 infamy (500 more than what i have), then the rest of them are at the same infamy range as my 4 team mates (3,600-3,700). This doesnt look fair at all. Im not calling anyone out, its no ones fault just really bad matchmaking. See attached for details.

 

one more... five battles in a row...

 

And another one for me but this time our team had the advantage. I have +700 infamy more than the strongest opponent while the 8 other players have roughly the same infamy (3,100-3,200).

 

Lol this matchmaking is crazy. What have the developers said about this? Is there any explanation as to why this is happening. It seems that matchmaking was more fair on previous updates..

 

it is impossible to fight like this ... it is to enter a battle with a written ending

 

Yeah it takes the fun out of the game. I dont like guaranteed wins or loss.

The funny thing is i havent seen anything about how they changed the matchmaking the devs just said "they made improvements". It needs to be more specific and there clearly is NO improvement from what we are all experiencing.

 

I totally agree with you BEN, it is frustrating to enter a battle and see how the teams are armed and even more so when you do not know the criteria used by the matchmaking in that battle

 

one thinks is sure matchmaking is getting worst and worst, teams without no sens I´m over 5k and I been match all day with 3k players... so it´s a mess to play... as well fleet system at least in high level, is not working... you need to wait 10 minutes..with lucky

 

Seems almost impossible to get a decent battle these days.
Has there been any word from the devs yet regarding this new matchmaker?

 

Havent heard of anything from them yet. But I did ask on the patch note thread and apparently the devs tried to mix in MK level and I think your overall gear with infamy. It is clearly not working lol.

 

It would be a good idea to release the criteria used by matchmaking and the best opensource style, and the community of players can contribute ideas to improve it.

 

10 minutes of waiting just to play the game is not good... Devs really need to think of something soon. 3k vs 5k is not fun for both sides.

 

Yes I agree. They are always so secretive when it comes to this stuff. Like the star system no one really knows what the formula is.

 

Haha, no it's a damn mess. Hope they do something about it soon.

 

I think part of why there are no updates is because of what happened with the guild quest exploit. Now no one from Rovio is gonna say anything until they have the go signal. lol

 

I don’t think it is matchmaking, it’s loadouts. Take a look at 3 lowest dmg dealers, 1 on my team and 2 on unfriends. Those weapons are guild quest related and they certainly would not have had those pre guild quests as weapons of choice. Check the loadouts of your team on your losses and it’s probably down to poor weapon choice.

 

I do not think matchmaking balances for each team's weapons, in fact I think that would be a solution to a fairer matchmaking ...
Here is a clearer example ...
