Bad Matchmaking Thread

Haze and mo both soft locking/ talking about doing so in chat. Bout ready to be done with this game if valve is going to let folks openly cheat, smurf, and do whatever they please with ZERO consequences. If folks get banned, they just go play on their alt accounts. There's ZERO consequence to cheating.

holy outliers batman
one player on each team (not even carry characters) doubles player dmg of everyone else on it, not a great sign for matchmaking
 
48601342 team of new players that struggle to use a mouse and keyboard at the same time. They lost guardians in 5 minutes and went 0-30 in 15 minutes. They spent most of the game shooting the floor.
 
48616806 smurf in our game, they play the character at a level far above anyone else. they have only 2 matches played on statlocker and a steam profile that isn't set up
 
48624686 and 48623374 think im just gonna uninstall the game every match is like pulling teeth

Once again a purely miserable experience where people were performing on a sub-par level when the enemy team was just steamrolling non-stop with an unkillable Victor.

It's so beyond frustrating playing solo in this deathball meta.
 
I think the game is cooked y'all. just had a match with a Vindicta doing 4k damage from her sniper shot, in the first 3 minutes of the match. Valve does NOTHING to stop cheaters. The only way they'll fix it is if we stop playing it.

Right now there's 0 consequences to cheating, folks just go on their alt accounts if they get banned and then rinse and repeat.

It's either stop playing or join the cheaters, otherwise the experience is miserable.


I've went my entire time playing, for the last year never encountering a cheater, and suddenly after the big update recently they're EVERYWHERE

As a new Obscurus player, I've been matched with people who are way better at the game than me and relatively new players at the same time on both teams. I don't think matchmaking is working as intended, however, they get data and analytics from matches so they can improve matchmaking.

I hope matchmaking improves, though! 😄
 
Use this thread to share matchids for games that you think the matchmaker did a bad job at. If you can explain what you felt was a problem in it that would be helpful as well.

Do not post matchids for games that were within the past 24 hours from this post. Games older than that are fine and games going forward are fine.

Thanks for the help
