Bad Matchmaking Thread

[x-trem007]

I've encountered the following flow four times in a row.

I get a team that communicates and makes normal moves > I win and get a promotion, next game = people don't say a word, 0/10 after the laning phase > demotion back.

I'm starting to think that Deadlock is planning to drive me crazy.

EBMM google it, that is what happened in Apex Legends and allegedly is happening in most / all games because it generates more hate, drive to recoup the loss aka active player figures go up + generate more money overall for the company.

Sad story and thus every BR/FPS game that involves 2+ players is night and day experience when you have a set team/party or soloq (hell).

Why do some games feel like Im playing with actual bots?
Heres the most recent example: 63935943

Something that has been driving me crazy lately, mostly since the new patch came I didnt have this issue before. I will get 2 or 3 games that feel normal, everybody talks, everybody communicates, good game. And then randomly every 3rd or 4th game will be a game that feels like Im playing with literal bots. Nobody says a word, not even when spoken to, I talk to them on voice > no response. I talk to them over text > no response. They dont even do quick commands, nothing. And the players themselves will play beyond awful, very poor movement, very poor awareness, just in general an awful unfun game.

I feel like Im going crazy, like Deadlock is actually experimenting with using AI bots in their games. I need answers, because Im kinda tired of dicerolling wether or not I will get a game with actual alive players

They are not bots because same experience (more like every 2nd game is shit) AND when I use mic to call things out 9 out of 10 times first response is "stfu / stop talking / who made you the boss" (me calling out what we could do / what I will do) followed up by wave of trashtalking (I guess people are triggered these days by voice unless it is trashtalking noone seems to care really).

AND most importantly after every such game! I mean EVERY! I get temp banned in voice and/or put in low priority queue = most of my team reports me. I have been able to use my mic for like 4 days out of past 3 weeks, 2 days ago got banned for 17 days!

But that and hacking and matchmaking just clearly showed that Deadlock is not my game -> no more Deadlock for me thx, had enough, hope Valve is happy with my 5EUR spent

Again. Is this a known issue, has valve ever said anything about this? This cannot be considered normal right? I feel like we are all just screaming into the void here lol. 63946026

63959772- avg eternus 3. i am not eternus, but my team doesn't play, they just fight and die. The hero draft also turned out to be disastrous.

63982777 - Smurfing Seven, and Dynamo told us to kill ourselves.

63978777 - Enemy team all were ten times our ranks.

63663686 - Smurfs on enemy team and low ranks our team

63409061 - smurfs on enemy team and low ranks our.

you changed something about the matchmaker the last few days, the quality of matches have plummeted off a cliff these past days and it is ruining the game so much.

this match the heroes across teams just feel INCREDIBLY unbalanced. we got a team full of gun/left-click heroes versus a team with full hard cc. 64051986

64058305 enemy team was 80k over us by the end

64064207 first play of the game my graves goes in for a heavy punch and gets parried against a Calicoe, Mirage lane then farms for the entire game. Griefing haze.

Seemed like enemy team was a coordinated stack and our team was made of bots. It was just really imbalanced.

how are these players (teammates) are in this lobby? literally plays like a easy bot-- not a single teammate can able to turn back the game. one of the most worst matchmaking i had in a while. only i can kill opponents and push the objectives. please put them in the lower rank, it's ruining my chances to go rank up

Haze is using silent aimbot, on replay it is super clear that bullets just magnetize to a target. Also in the last 2 weeks he has 85% winrate, but 6m before he had 50%

 

[TheMrKaramel18]

I think youshi dont even read this page of forum. WHOLE MATCHMAKING 0 THE BIGGEST SHIT IN THE GAME. Why fucking i should get the team who always dead when the opponent got team who got 6+ wins?!?!? WHY I GOT THIS TEAM>?!?!

A 4-player premade was in my team that were all too bad for the rank they played in, they all were feeders, and did not communicate with the rest of the team. In their history I can see that they played several sub-ranks below me just 1 day ago. Fix this matchmaking already its ruining the game. Youre not respecting my time, every time its a complete dice-roll wether or not I will waste 40 minutes of my life

I can go ahaed for hours. How can you do a trash like this?? This game has no sense actually! It is worse than Overwatch and Smite. WHY ALWAYS IN MY TEAM ARE BOTS??? Other team are PRO, how is possible every game?? People have no idea how to play, just go straight to chase a kill, they think to play COD! You can throw this game in a trash, you killed it with your system! #valvestopsmokingcrack #valvewakethefckup

The spread of player skill in this match is pretty bad. The Graves for example has played the game for far longer on one character than I have played the entirety of the game - meanwhile everyone else is struggling to make any decent impact to the game because the skill gap between the top and bottom players are so wide.

I distinctly remember the Holiday being very clearly unsure of how to play and just spent the entire game stood behind the tower scared to push forward.

Definitely a clear cut case of WTF is going on here matchmaking, there was people in this match who clearly had no business being put against players who are so drastically more/less experienced than them.

Grossly disorganised, no answering to what the enemies are building or doing whatsoever, that was so poor
