Collaborative study of MM on Eu server
Hello Captains,
Because of the recuring subject of MatchMaker "cheating" with players, we have decided to make a study of the MM on different tier (6 to 9)
We have decided to keep it simple and to record only the date of the battle, player name, ship type and name, Max and min Tier of the battle, result of the battle and time period of the day (Morning, Afternoon, Evening, Night) and if the game was played in division or Solo.
Also we have decided that we need a minimum of 1.000 records before releasing the results and a minimum of 250 battle per ship type.
Here are the results for the tier 8 games
The work is still in progress (not enough results to be accurate per ship type and time period) but we dont focus the records only on tier 8 anymore.
What we can conclude at the moment is when you hit the "battle" button with a tier 8 ship, you have 1 chance over 3 to be top tier, one over 2 to be low dog and the rest of the time you could be mid tier.
One suprise was that CA have a better chance to be top tier and DD less (not enough data on CV to be accurate).
You can find the original thread in french here
I hope it can help.
I will keep you informed of the evolution of the study

An Update of the Data collected
T9 Games
Regarding our beloved T8 Battles 1500 games have been recorded :
So we reach the 33 % for Top tier position with a 17% / 50% distribution for Mid/Low and this is what it's the most annoying in this tier according to the ship and to the line up, you are often only two or three TVIII against a majority of X and some IX.
We have a good representation of all the classes and one ship was overplayed; Graf Zeppelin! thank's toJuesty_Tylor
A second impression and that MM would take into account of the class of ship: the DD's and CV's are less often Top tier than BB's and CA's. For CV it belongs certainly of to her under representation of the class but not for the DD's ?
T7 Games
T7 is the reverse image of Tier 8 , Most of the games are top tier or Mid tier and only few as low tier. is it the good tier to improve players"s skill and to learn the game ?
T6 Games
T6 is less horrible that I was thinking, with a fair amount of games in each of the positions. But because of the small amout of data (less than 400 games recorded) Figures can change, but I feel that it give a fair image of what we can expect.
