Bad Matchmaking Thread

im come to the conclusion that Matchmaking is just this bad because they are purposely doing it to fuck with us. there is no other way it can be this horrible
Development might be outsourced to cheapest 3rd world country that just codes by the book and never playtests :)

But yeah it is odd how bad matchmaking is / able to adjust despite the fact that they actually rolled out some patch recently that should have improved it.

For me past 2 days = either roll over or being rolled over. Alchemist 5 + option "extra competitive" = half of the games I have at least 2 people that have 0 clue how to play the game and should be in like bot lobbies instead of my rank if rank is even taken into consideration atm...which I doubt / you still get promoted even when losing...so ranked means not much anyway :) In any case something is way off atm.
 
Quite possibly the most abhorrently unfair match for the enemy team I have ever seen, it was a slaughter. Archon 5 average vs arcanist 3 average. I was playing with my Eternus 1 buddy, my Ascendant 3 friend, as well as myself being Ascendant 3. Match ID 63500575
 
I simply want to say that after the recent update, the matchmaking has been performing terribly. The quality of games has decreased several times compared to how it was before. With each game, my desire to play diminishes further. There are newbies in the lobbies, and people who leave at the 15-minute mark—none of this used to happen before.

if I think about it too, it's not normal that they are so useless, it's as if they have no fucking idea what they are doing but at the same time their company has been making games with MM for more than 20 years, this can only be on purpose. The goal is to kill this game

yoshi, I know you have half a neuron, but I'm going to explain one thing to you to see if you understand it, I know how MM systems work and that everything is decided before the game starts, this game was clearly a loser queue, but I say one thing mr.mononeuronal, at least do it more gently, this fucking game felt like we were playing Ritualist against a team from Eternus 6, not only did I know that we were going to lose from min 1 but it is one of the most disgusting experiences you can have in a game, do you understand? (I guess not because you're mononeuronal) YOUR FUCKING GAME LEAVES A TOTALLY DISGUSTING FEELING THAT IT MAKES YOU WANT TO UNINSTALL THE FUCKING GAME, AND I GUESS IT'S NOT WHAT YOU WANT FOR YOUR FUCKING GAME RIGHT MR, MONONEURONAL? in your game it is not subtle at all, it is perfectly noticeable when it is a loser queue, a winner queue or a 50%, and both losing and winning by sweeping is not fun, you understand mr, mononeuronal? IF YOUR GOAL IS TO CREATE THE WORST FUCKING GAME IN HISTORY, YOU ARE UNDOUBTEDLY ACHIEVING IT, IT IS A TRUE SHITSHOW; SMURFS, CHEATERS, ALL IS UNBALANCED, 2 OR 3 WEEKS WITHOUT BALANCE UPDATE, I SUPPOSE YOUR GOAL IS TO KILL THE GAME BEFORE PUBLISHING IT, AND WITHOUT A DOUBT YOU ARE ON THE RIGHT PATH, at least put a fucking surrender button, so when you put us in a lobby that the system has decided in advance that we have to lose, we can do it quickly, and not lose 30 or 45 fucking minutes, okay? MR MONONEURONAL
 
if your goal is to lose all the players you gain after each update and have the worst retention in the history of a video game, you are on the right path MR MONONEURONAL, just keep it up, you have been doing it perfectly for 2 years, in a month we will have the same players again than before the update, just continue down the same path, if I were you I would screw up the MM a little more, I would give away a few more ranks or I would simply put the entire playerbase in eternus 6, I would put 6 new characters that are totally unbalanced and with so little time between one and another that simply destroys the entire balance of the game and each game is a fucking shitshow, where whoever has the most new characters wins, you guys are doing it perfectly, keep it up, and without a doubt the best part is how fast you are to put in 500 unbalanced characters at the same time but how slow you are to put in a balance patch, we have been suffering from this shitshow for 2 weeks but don't worry, if you put that in when no one plays anymore

Just had 6 game losing streak -> always unballanced and hackers. Unticked "extra competitive" -> faced Celest in line that abuse rebuttle and auto parry -> oh wait there was haze on our team with blunt aimbot :D

It was so fun to watch them duke it out but of course aimbot won us game easily.

Dude was actually trying hard and communicating calls as soon as we were about to lose the lead.

Look at both profiles in steam = filled with reports from multiple games.

Seems like Valve really does not give a fuck about hackers :( and clearly as soon as you get out of newbie lobbies Deadlock as any other popular game is filled with them :(

Basically you need to flip a coin to get equally matched teams -> then flip it again that noone is total bot on your team -> then flip again for no smurfs / hackers. I better go buy lottery ticket, win millions and never give a flying fuck about gaming :D

I am joining people who will leave the game. Sadly. This is not fun at all. 2 days of grinding, 0 games I remember enjoying :(

Plus the comms muting and low priority queues because of crybabies mass reporting. This is soooooo Overwatch. And seems like going the same way.

pls Add a report option for feeding. It doesn't need to ban them, It can just put them in low priority matches and They just need to play three games to get rid it
 
Why do we have to play against premade teams of 2 when in our team there are no premade players? Specifically talking about Eternus rank, the fact that we have to play against premade players in the highest rank really destroys the meaningful impact skill has in these type of lobbies. You will see players in Eternus with 55-60% win rate and all they do is duo stack AND a case i have been monitoring of players 3 stacking on Eternus by manipulating the hero selection in order to join the same team.

Only allow premades up to Phantom or something. This is ruining the game honestly, besides the fact that matchmaking is bad most of the times, this is the cherry on top. Many good players including streamers have had this complain since the early release of the game and still very minor adjustments if any have been done.
 
Hey @Yoshi , every time you give out a free rank boost you not only ruin games at all levels but particularly Eternus games. You are boosting people into Eternus whilst the eternus people have no where to go. The amount of losses I have on my tracker since the last adjustment because I'm getting team mates that are just straight up saying "I'm new to these types of games" , meaning the large skill gap between ascendant average lobbies and probably like E4+ lobbies. Ascendant players will just sit in base 100% of the time when rejuv pops. Ascendant players won't look for a pick by pushing opposite waves when they're down. Just some examples of skill gaps/choices that cost games.

You need to understand all it takes is one liability that doesn't belong in these games to make it unwinnable practically when you also factor in that there is no draft and you could also be getting character diffed.

I also want to point out that this latest adjustment was so bad that my alt I only use to play with a low rank buddy got boosted from low phantom to ascendant when it only has like 20 games on it. That tells me you essentially believe that a really new player with 20 games should almost be able to compete and contribute in my high eternus lobbies because they are one rank below me. What????
