[ST-EU] OldGrandad Supertester 3,404 posts 35,711 battles Report post #7 Posted July 27, 2015 Really? You are complaining about this show of MM? Yesterday, I was in a division with 2 friends who needed to grind tier 4's, I was in the Myogi, one in a Wyoming and the other in a Kuma. Ok, press 'Battle'....... we were on TS together and collectively we all went 'what???' ended up on North against tier 7 ships, ship happens! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Elgerino Alpha Tester 967 posts 5,971 battles Report post #8 Posted July 27, 2015 Yes, the MM sucks. Yes the devs are in denial...about a lot of things. No this thread will not make them listen. What do you think this is? RUS forums? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tacomaco Players 82 posts 2,010 battles Report post #10 Posted July 27, 2015 btw there is nothing wrong on those pictures Right... First screenshot doesn't even have teams with equal numbers of ships....nothing wrong with that. That's why I don't even bother to play random battles. The PvP MM is broken every second game.

First screenshot doesn't even have teams with equal numbers of ships....nothing wrong with that. That's why I don't even bother to play random battles. The PvP MM is broken every second game. thats mostly due to fact that they were top tier platoon, platoon is "punished" here a lot also you have two capital ships, thats another "-" i suggest you to read something about matchmaking weight for each ship, it works on same basis as in wot once there will be more players here , i am 100% sure that you will see only full teams battles and since i am nice guy, i even found something to read for you https://eu.wargaming.net/support/Knowledgebase/Article/View/314/18/how-does-the-matchmaking-work-basic-information?searchresult https://eu.wargaming.net/support/Knowledgebase/Article/View/388/18/how-does-the-matchmaking-work-advanced-information?searchresult its for wot, but the principle is same Edited July 27, 2015 by von_chom Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BigFireMayhem Beta Tester 1 post Report post #14 Posted July 27, 2015 I am not entirely sure that carrier MM should allow for a)a 2 vs 1 situation and b) a tier difference. Air superiority in either form, provided the carrier players are even semi-competent, will invariably tip the game in the team's favour. Larger, more numerous and/or more powerful fighter squadrons will make quick work of the single CVs combat capabilities. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nethraniel Beta Tester 1,739 posts 1,782 battles Report post #17 Posted July 27, 2015 When I am observing my own battles, and what is shown here, I get more and more the impression, that Carrier + DD platoons can severely mess up the MM process... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sander93 Beta Tester 990 posts 3,431 battles Report post #18 Posted July 27, 2015 once there will be more players here , i am 100% sure that you will see only full teams battles Dude, there are 30.000-40.000 players. How many more do we need to get a proper matchmaking? It's a crap excuse. It's simply badly coded, there is no point denying that. WG needs to sort its stuff out. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[BOOF] Blackeon [BOOF] Players 139 posts 10,411 battles Report post #20 Posted July 27, 2015 oh you know developers intentions ? dare to enlighten us please ? no sarcasm here, srsly. no ? then please don't use phrase "working as intended" btw there is nothing wrong on those pictures Frankly if you have read any posts on WoT then you know the devs repeatedly use the the phrase "working as intended" to describe the awful thing that is MM in that game and now it seems in this one. I just cannot see why WG cannot produce a MM that actually is fair, feels fair and gives everyone at the start of the battle an equal chance to win. The truth I feel is that they could do it but simply couldn't care less, and WoWs will just become another arcade blastfest that pleases either the uber player who can turn any battle because they are just that good or the brain dead who don't notice or care when they lose ten games in a row because of the MM. I have played about ten battles tonight and would say that at least one third of those were not balanced by ships. And none of them were balanced by ability. It is really awful that WG will produce something that is close to a gaming work of art and then let their awful MM smear excrement all over it. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CactuarLOL Players 115 posts 411 battles Report post #21 Posted July 27, 2015 Had a game today with mostly teir 8/9 ships, I was in a Warspite (T6?) and not in a platoon, no idea why I was matched up but i'm guessing it was because the enemy team has a platoon with a Langley (Teir 4 carrier).. Our carrier was MassiveD in his teir 9 Essex carrier... I survived the match (Which I didn't think I would) and we won thanks to some fantastic cruiser players that stuck by me as we pushed the east flank together in unison, but it didn't feel like a fun match because or our carrier completely outclassing theirs. That being said it was their fault for making a division with two T8 ships and a T4 carrier, and not a fault of the matchmaker.. Still i'm not sure how I got dragged into the battle lol.

ArgH_ger Players 1 post 568 battles Report post #24 Posted July 28, 2015 I'd like to confirm that matchmaking seems to have some logical issues. Was in a division with two friends (we were in tier III / IV) -> We got thrown repeadetly into tier VII games, the other side lowest tier was V. Needless to say, we were so on the low end, that we got obliterated quite fast. This strange MM started after we sat in the queue for 5(+) mins without getting into a battle - before this event, everything was fine with the mm. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[FOJAX] xiaobaozha Players 5 posts 12,991 battles Report post #25 Posted July 28, 2015 "Working as intended" should be replaced with "designed to artificially control your win rate to a statistical norm". Therefore, sadly, any mm examples you post are "working as intended".... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
