It is their reason/excuse for not publishing their patent. Oh & you just admitted it - they don't say what they hide, do they? Are you sure you aren't a paid employee of WG? Ofc, we won't know. No, random was not designed for competitive play, as you say. Caught you out finally ROFL What is your post count up to now? No matter. I'm sure within an hour it will be higher. I didn't think someone would waste so much time existing on a forum as your post count suggests. the patent is published.... if they hid something, we would have found out years ago and that random is not competitive play was obvious for most of us years ago, congratulations that you finally found out and I did not think that anyone could have such massive problems to understand stuff, as your posts suggest, at least you are back to typing words Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[CHEFT] ForlornSailor Players 7,374 posts 11,735 battles Report post #3983 Posted October 17, 2020 Nice little story for all the people whining about +/-2 mm and claiming, its this that makes them lose games because they are low tier: Today, in a T7 to T9 game, the Zara right next to me starts instantly bitsin about the matchmaking. He goes into reverse and afk into the map border. Thats how the match played out: - The enemy T7 cruiser (myoko) ruins my game, by slamming 10k into my DD during a radar - Enemy DDs decide the game, because I dont get the fire support the enemy DD gets from his T7 teammate - guess what would have been the perfect tool against enemy DDs? Thats right, italian SAP from the Zara. So in this tiny brains of that guy, he lost the game because he was thrown under the bus as low tier. Yet he completly doesnt get the fact, that his decision to go afk, had a huuuge impact on losing the game. Dont be the tiny brain guy. 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You lost one of the nice red ships! Not sure what to say... I've had some similar battles, but no matter what I try to keep going, sometimes a horrible team is an opportunity to do a bit of extra damage, small consolation perhaps, but grab what you can, or learn to like lemons.

[IRIS_] Steph_37210 Players 14 posts 23,640 battles Report post #3992 Posted October 18, 2020 I am puzzled to still play battles like the one I played this morning with the recurring announcement of MM improvements. Battle lasted 7:53 mins (like a coop battle). No kill, no caps versus 3 caps and 5 kills. To start: 1 radar versus 3 radars (I know they do not account for that in MM unfortunatly) But then totally off balanced in term of experience and win rate (I know they do not use that criteria in MM, again this is unfortunate). You have 2 above 50% (between 50-55%) versus, 8 above 50% with 7 above 55% and 4 above 60%..... They tell you to make the best out of it, that you can do it etc... all this BS, but this is to hide pur failure from there side. This is like playing Coop for the other team, so not fun for anyone.... Sade to see that today. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MM improvements, not player improvements. Less than 250 Base XP in a Tier IX is a bit underwhelming, especially after 7 minutes. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Enemys had 3 decent playing DDs, you had 1 afk, 1 useless and 1 decent. So enlighten us: how do you want to balance afk people? How should the system know one guy decided to be afk? Id like to know since I had one of those yesterday myself, who had a huge part in losing the game. And how do you balance the other DD beeing bad at what he does? ban him from the game?

Its them 3 alone that make the difference. What you want the matchmaker to do about it? Do you complain when they are on your side, carrying you to victory? Should the matchmaker skill-match them with another 3x super unicum division? How long do you want someone like the Grozovoi with 75% WR to wait for a match? 4 days untill the other guy with 75% WR in a DD comes online? Afterall, you would need to match class vs class right? And tier vs. tier also or not? Is a 75% WR guy in a Benson the same as a 75% WR in a Grozovoi? Or can he be matched with a 60% Grozovoi? or 65 % Grozovoi? Should super unicum players be punished for having such a high winrate in the sense, that they would have to be "balanced" by always facing the exact same number of sunper unicums on the other team? Or should they be "balanced" by having the worst 9 to 11 players of the 24 available for the game on their side, so they have to play an uphill truggle each and every single game they play? If you think so, explain why you want people to be punished for beeing good? Questions over questions. One more: why dont you just thrive to be a 75% WR player yourself? You obviously complain, that matchmaking is holding you back, so you cant win as many games as you deserve? How come others do manage? How did the Grozovoi win 3 out of 4 games? Ah well it turned into more then 1 question, looking forward to your answers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Literally all the "friendly" BBs came to our side abandoning C. If im rocking at 30k at the top of the list WTF are the rest of these potatoes doing? well, they arent being evenly distributed between the teams. thats one clear point. all results like this are the result of intrinsic, built-in and systemic failure of the matchmaker. "bug" is not a strong enough term to describe these washouts, and they are too common to not be DRIVEN by the mm itself. time, effort, investment, discussions and commitees where had, to get these results.
