It really sucks paling againt a tear 2 higher, SO STOP this [edited]. There is no need to play such. No atter what weird graphics there are.

PLEASE stop and make a more pleasurable game balance.

What was the threshold regarding uptiered games?

 

Playing T8 and getting T10s 4 times in a row already. With 3 of those playing against T10 CV.

 

This is getting unplayable. MM sucks bad. Real bad.

[Captain_LoveRocket]

Lost count of the matches where I've been bottom tier. T6 vs majority of T7/8 and getting ruined early doors. I don't mind being bottom tier a lot if I'm getting plenty of matches at the same tier or even T7. Yesterday, playing T6, T4 CVs got thrown into a game where there were T7 ships.

 

Hasn't been fun today and it's not often I say that even if I've had a bad day results wise.

According to some people, you need to play at least 20 games in order for that threshold to kick in.

 

Meanwhile most people will stop playing they get uptiered 4-5 times in a row. I've had situations where I had 7 games uptiered in a row.

A T4 cannot meet T7 unless it's a fail platoon.

I don't think you need to play 20 games, it's just taking 20 last games into consideration. If I'm explaining myself correctly.

 

Nevertheless, even with that "feature" it's still frustrating when you get uptiered so often, in a row, especially with a CV 2 tiers higher which harass you non-stop making you as useless as possible.

 

When there are so many players online, I don't know why we have a difference of 2 tiers constantly. So that the player won't wait an additional 10 seconds in queue? Really?

 

I don't understand this BS. For the love of god, I don't.

Needs even 2 fail divs, especially since it was a CV. Non-CV ships can get matched against a higher tier when enough time passes (CVs cant). I think its after being in queue for more than 3 minutes, like a T5 Cruiser can get replaced by a T6 DD f.e.

I lost 1.8% WR during the summer. Mainly to some personal stuff, bad performance and horrible MM. Set a couple of records for losses in a row, made a post here and kinda embarrassed myself since i wasn't in a good place. It happens :)

I cant believe that man. According to some guys here the mm is perfect. Probably you photoshoped it right? Plus according to the same guys you dont get uptiered. Maybe its all a huge misunderstanding/conspiracy against those poor programmers from WG by us.

Strange... MM is perfectly balanced and of course you never get uptiered, You photoshoped ii right? Admit it.

Ranks dont mean anything....

 

first, why would you assume every good player is playing ranked (and ranks to R1) and

second, why should every R1 player automatically be some kinda unicum? Getting R1 is mostly being persistent.

 

[Excavatus]

Holy mother of jumping drunk yamato shells!

This topic just lost PAGES because of some meaningless, very personal, pointless arguments.

Gentelmen!

Please.. Stay civil, be kind and constructive!

Thank you!

[Camperdown]

Something has to change.

Complete noobs play with unicums. It's no fun anymore.

WG please implement a skill class system where you have say 5 skill levels (noob, meh, average, good, expert) so that MM will produce teams with somewhat comparable skills.

The game will become so much more fun for everyone. PLEASE stop the madness.

[Sambor0]

Another two games this morning. Guess who won? Two weeks time I can not win almost nothing.Like @Camperdown wrote players without any skills play high tiers. Thousands of battles and still don't know basics of this game and usually they are in one team against much more experience players. If in few minutes loosing a few ships ( especially DD's and another suicide ships) no way to play and have fun from this game anymore!

Nearly 50% is almost nothing? Interesting.

Play more mid Tier and and you will win more.

[Sambor0]

As usually a few guys suicide from start of game so this ''50%'' doesn't mean nothing mate. And for  a lot of guys I think ''Random'' is just word and nothing else!

Just for the record: I am not complaining about winning or losing. My WR is now climbing steadily from a thoroughly average past. 

My complaint is the sheer stupidity of noob players or carelesness of players who simply don't care about the quality of team play. I beg for that to change by a system with differentiated skill levels for MM, so that battles are more evenely matched and more exiting. Challenging not in the sense of people with speshul challenges but challenging in terms of skills.

[GarrusBrutus]

Lo and behold, dear fellow gamers!

 

Upcoming update:

[Captain_LoveRocket]

Ok, someone doubted the veracity of my claim that MM was placing players with a 3 tier difference...

Clearly it's a fail division. His m8 the Graf Spee put him there. Same on the other side. Common enough sadly.

[Captain_LoveRocket]

Ahh, now i understand.. thanks for clarifying

[siulis13]

no improves mm is a crap for long time and no one of the develop team listen us
