Why do I still see negative comments about matchmaking? It takes me an average of 2 seconds to find and queue a match. Every game I have played in was full with 16 players on each side, none of them afking. Yet, some people seem displeased with the system.
I could only come up with two explanations.
1. I'm reading comments posted on launch day when queuing in for a match was terrible
2. Players will always find something to complain about, even if things have been significantly improved
I'd like to hope that the former is the correct assumption. |

As would we all, however the correct answer is #2, sorry contestant, the new washer and dryer to to the Bitter Vet sulking in the corner! |

What are their reasons for complaining, though? What is it that makes the matchmaking system rant worthy? I personally love it. I can't think of anything negative to say about it. |

Meh, the ++ber-l33t veterans are ****** now because of the matchmaking putting them against others with same skills, making it harder to protostomp newberries. And they're not used to that, making them cry like babies about MM and AA and HD and whatever. |

If I play with a full squad, it usually results in a pubstomp. Playing on my own I'm still losing 90% of the time regardless of how well I do. In my opinion, matchmaking is just as bad as it's ever been. |

Lol... that's just sad if that's true. Heck, I'm skilled into proto on my heavy with about 12 mil sp gained thus far, but I enjoy the matches that I play in. Things haven't really changed for me this update either. I still die frequently to Duvolles. |

are you forgetting wat matchmaking is? it isn't about putting us into a match fast and quickly. its about having 16 players vs 16 of the same skill level players. when a 6 man squad of vets losses because everybody else on their team goes 0-10, thats not good matchmaking.
FYI getting thrown into a game quickly 16 vs 16 is called a successful deployment, something EVERY game does without months of patches. |

This is true, but I also forgot to mention that I have yet to play a match that was severely one-sided. Organized squads with skilled players do help in giving any team an edge, and within the last 10 games I have played, each team seemed to be doing just that. On the occasion that I was in a squadless team, the matches still were not as one-sided as I expected them to be. Blueberries would group together and actually defend objectives and kill reds. |

actually the only thing the annoys me about matchmaking is that every now and then one of our members gets booted out when we try to play as a squad.
and scotty is an ******* for making us retry joining a battle. |

Those 0/10 people were the previous l337 murder taxi 'sploiters. Their high kdr and warpoint ratios made the system think they were better players than they were, giving the players with the actual skill a bad match because half their team was absolute garbage waste management booty juice. It seems the system learns, however, and promptly demotes them to matches with people that have their same skill level while allowing you to que into better balanced matches. |
