Horrible matchmaking!

This has been repeated several times, te matchmasking is just too bad, how come a team with 4 marshalls and 1 field marshall, against 2 centurions, 2 knights, and 1 one marshall (me).. Be fair?! The matchmaking litteraly s*cks.You need to make it more fair, people have no chance in PvP with these useless teams against pro field marshall players..

 

LOL, try being the only Seasoned Legionair against AKotOs and up... they might as well paint a target on my back. Makes it impossiable to improve to the point where I could actually compeat.

 

I don't know why the admins never answer my questions regarding matchmaking, I just want the devs to know that the matchmaking is simply useless and bad, and they need to fix it as soon as possible, this ELO system is the worst! Please fix it, it's unpleasant to play with this matchmaking, there is no balance in teams AT ALL in 65% of the times, in a Capture the flag it's 4v5 instead of 5v5 sometimes... God pls fix it, and answer pls admins

 

The mods and admins generaly answer questions when there is an official answer, like if they knew there was an update or fix coming. Or they step in when there is an issue of people breaking the rules (Like your profile picture for instance). They generaly don't say anything about general bellyaching... for example, a post like this. They have said in that past that PVP is something that the devs want to fix, but they haven't had any details... have some patience and be glad that you have LVL 40 PVP... trying to get into PVP at LVL 45 is a nightmare.

 

Sorry guys.

In my opinnion you should not have get any "fair" arena balanced by the system.
Weak players should be defeated 100.000 times in a row.

That's fair.

Stop crying and make good PVP char from the lvl 1.

I have quite good PVP char and I'm waiting for duel 30 minutes because system hesitates to give me any oponent.

And i get one 6vs6 during all the day, because I have not barely any matching oponent on my lvl.

Is it fair ? I dont think so.

And when I get my pvp 6vs6, it's 1 vs 6, because I can solo defeat all 6 oponents + all defensive structures alone. They are so weak.

They have the same opportunity as me to make good pvp char. It's not my problem that they are one hit targets. So why should I be punished that I'm so good? Does not make any sense.

 

Your problem of long waiting time is because few people participate in PvP around your level and the matchmaking system has not changed, indeed it makes a lot of sense. Think about it, who wants to be defeated all the time? Once they see that they cannot win, surely no one will join the battle since it's not fun at all. Yea it's their chance to make good PvP character, but it's also their chance to choose joining PvP or not.

And the fact that no one's joining is very likely a problem arising from you yourself. I myself would not join a PvP that there is no chance to win

Hellamyjamgirl, please change your avatar or at least edit out the profanity to comply with board rules. (thanks Baragain)

 

This is hilarious. You are 'so good' that you have to remake your char to abuse new players ).

 

Here you complain about fighting OP opponents and having a seemingly weaker team ,and say that the ELO and matchmaking systems suck.
It was different once, a lot of matches were fair as can be and if they were not, it was usually only a slight imbalance. What did people complain about then? Long waiting times for matches to start.
So you see, if everyone complains about both 'solutions' the devs would have a hard time choosing which is best. PvP balancing is probably one of the top priorities so just do more productive things like farm and ID better items because I doubt they'll bring back the fair but slow matchmaking system any time soon.

 

Iv'e also noticed something very annoying with PvP. And before I say this, I have a really good gamer pc, and my connection to internet is perfect, I have newest Java version and I keep cleaning my files. When I'm in PvP the screen just suddenly turns dark and I'm back in the city with 15min ban, it doesn't happen often, what happens often is just lag and disconnections, and no it's not my pc, it's coming from you, it also happens to alot of friends ingame. So today I decided to stop PvP until you make some good changes, PvP is just pathetic at the moment, useless and not funny at all with your matchmaking anyway, PvP needs ALOT more focus apparently, it's really really bad.

 

There's something called "Group" and that's what most tough guys do. So why don't you invite your guildmates/friends and do the same? or just do 1v1 since you're a marshal, you should'nt be having troubles facing anyone, except those who paid 10 thousand dollars ofcourse. I find matchmaking pretty good enough, and i hope nothng changes, because all they will do is ruin pvp and waiting for a battle will be 100x longer than present.

 

Tough guys or scared guys? This is player vs player not posse vs posse. Grouping is an option but it makes it unfair for the people that have to face you, which is probably why you find matchmaking pretty good.

 

Well don't tell me if they are scared or tough it wasn't me against her besides i agree with them beeing scared and group, but that doesn't mean they have to change the whole matchmaking system.

Besides, there are hundreds of other level 40 fame players that she can group with to face the others, which will be a more challenging match.

 

Muscle, I have merged your posts. Please try to use the "edit" button at the bottom of your post if you wish to write more than your original response.

 

That is true but maybe her friends aren't as strong as yours.

 

My friends? I never said she was against my friends, i don't even play in her server
Also she can just invite any level 40 fame player and play against them, unless she's the most hated player in the whole server that no one will join her group. She's a marshal anyways, what would she gain if pvp match making system changed, she's already level 40 in fame, and i bet she even has enough for the next 5 fame levels that are coming soon(if there will be level 45 fame)


@-necromonster- Sorry, won't happen again.

 

Happened again ^

You said that you group with your friends and she should be able to do the same and present a challenge. Doesn't matter if you are fighting each other. If her friends aren't strong she can't group with them to fight strong players, but you can.

 

I only said she can group with better players, doesn't have to friends or guildmates, besides i already said i don't even know the people in her server since i don't play there. Im just saying, matchmaking system is good enough and shouldn't be changed.

 

You fail to understand my point. She can group with better players? Can she, though? Good enough to make the match fair? Probably not very often, and so matchmaking remains horrible. Just because you can group with strong players doesn't mean she can. That was my point.

 

Agreed, the system should try to match teams as evenly as possiable. For example, if there is a team of all Marshals and Field Marshals, the system should only try and match them with teams that have LVL 40 PVP also... and if there are no such players avaliable, then they should be made to wait, and wait, and wait, and wait, and wait... well you get the idea. They should be made to wait long enough that they break up their group, register as individuals, and end up on oposite well balanced teams.

If you don't like that idea, tough. Call me a jerk because I hate that it is impossiable for a High XP/Low PVP level character to do anything in PVP. And because of that, I think that just because they have high fame is no reason for them to be guaranteed a win every single fricken time, and PVP needs a fix so that they fight people their own strength. Ever heard that old phrase "Pick on someone your own size" ? It would be nice if it didn't just apply to bullys on the playground and was something that the devs enforced with a fair match making system.
