Match Making


Recommended Posts

As every season happens, it comes that moment when you get that 10+ losses streak and all games end up something like 500-50. May be my issue or not, but it just looks rigged. Have been doing pretty fine this season so far, more or less balanced matches, till today. What's up with Matchmaking?

I don't think I have played a pvp game that players all agreed mm was good. Imo players are the biggest variable. Whats to say someone isn't extra tired that day, their ferret decides mid match is the best time to walk on the keyboard, mom is distracting them or they spilled redbull on the keyboard. Random is random, if you throw a bunch of coins in the air its possible that several tails land together. Why is there never threads about runs of winning games?

Because they don't happen as often. As someone already stated, yea it can be the usual L2P thing, but what I am talking about is a more or less balanced amount of games, in which I've earned my rank, and then suddenly, in the same exact division, a streak of losses. I would understand the simple statistical explaination, but what doesn't feel right is the fact in all those matches we never stood a chance. So no, if I was able to decently pull my weight till where I'm now, I won't accept the "it's your fault" kitten. Those streaks feel too different from all the other matches, that's what makes me suspicious.

 

EDIT: Not to mention that most of the times, the players in the enemy group were mostly the same people, like I was constantly put against the same players over and over. And also, not to mention the fact that now that they allowed class reroll before a match, I've had quite a few matches in which I had a couple base guardians and another random class in my team, VS a team made of necros and mirages. Not cool, not cool.

Rigged? When something is rigged, someone gets screwed so someone else can benefit. The slot machines at casinos are rigged so the suckers eventually lose all their money to the casino. You think a-net has 'rigged' their match making to make sure that you specifically lose?

 

If you really lost 10+ matches in a row with scores @ 500 - 50, which is probably a rage fueled exaggeration, then you've simply just been unlucky. Nothings broken, nothing to fix. Aye, these threads come up like every day and push the other threads down.

No, this was your assumption so anything you said after that makes no sense.

 

And no, I don't believe in luck.

 

No, of course it was not 10 x games at 500-50, it was a metaphor that anyone could catch without any issue, anyone but you.

 

I simply stated a fact that at some point a lot of matches in a row stop being balanced, in every season I've participated, and I only decided to speak now because I had nothing else to do at that moment.

 

My guesses were low population or some coding issue, and I was curious.

 

What your point is, is stating it is just matter of "luck" or "L2P". The usual unload of cliches you use when you don't really know what to say but you feel the need to say something anyway. A point that cannot be proved right nor wrong, so pointless. If you have nothing constructive to say towards the thread and don't share the problem you can just walk on.

 

I also cannot comprehend why you took it so personal.

 

Conclusion: next time keep your steam blow offs for yourself.

 

EDIT: if threads like this come up everyday, there is a reason, and it is called feedback. And what should be done is look into it instead of looking the other way, like you would do. Just because you don't have a problem it doesn't mean everything is fine.

The match making system is pretty simple & straight forward dude. When you que up the system puts you in a game with 9 other people based on similar MMR and variety of class and that's all there is to it.

 

Whether you win or lose is completely up to your input and how lucky/unlucky you are with the 9 other players in the match. Like seriously what else is there to analyze here.

 

The reason im so agro is because when you and other people post the same nonsense over n over it floods the forums and makes it so when im browsin threads on my s7 i gotta go to multiple forum pages to find the interesting and valuable discussions.

 

Someone's gotta call you out for your own good brother, mine as well be me.

Not simple and not straight forward. What if there is not enough ppl of same MMR? Add some range lets say 10? Not enough ppl? Add +/- 100? What if we have 1500, 1500, 1300,1700? Can we create balanced matches? What if people in arena.net think "yes" and implement it?

 

Today i had people in my team who die faster than i can run from one point to another (im low plat), then i meet enemy necro and kill him without chances not because im so good, but because he just don't understand what is happening. Even when he was downed he feared my clones! Happens, yeah. But i killed him 2 more times this match and every time he feared my clone when i did not even plan to trick him! Obviously he is not platinum. But what rating of my teammates then???

How does not enough people being on make the match making concept any less simple and straightforward to understand? I mean you basically just explained how it works in a few sentences.

 

I think what you mean to say is that you dont like the match making system. Not liking it is very different than saying its broken or "rigged" like the OP and the other 3 million threads said on this subject.

 

And what alternative would you want to this low population when you que issue? You wanna sit in que for over an hour waiting for people close to your rating to log on?

Almost every idea has its limits. When it crosses the line it turns into absurd. Of course i don't want to wait for hours. But i don't want to play such matches either.
