So it-¦s fun for you to play against average players 24/7? How will you improve your skills if you don-¦t shoot against better players?
It is tragic to see how many of you are born afraid. Man up and get better at shooting instead of crying over a matchmaking system. Pathetic. |

Please I don't have time for your pathetic little insults, if actually bother to read my points you will see I encourage going against better players but in a more controlled environment.
The game is about fun, that is its primary role, to be fun, engaging and enjoyable to as many people as possible. If you disagree with that statement or believe video games are about skill and prowess then stop reading, throw a few more insults and leave, this is not an argument you are aptly prepared for.
Shooting against players WAY above your skill level is not fun, if someone is significantly more skilled then you, according to physcologists, you give up more often, you switch off and never return. Meanwhile the pro gets bored with poor players and moves on seeking a better challange. You have now lost 2 more players.
Shooting against players SLIGHTLY above/below your skill level is fun. If a fight is close then both players improve slightly over time. The poorer player will think about what he did wrong, was he aware enough, does he need better gear, does he need to work on his aim? The better play happy with his victory will contemplate why it was so close, what can he do to insure a clearer margin of victory?
This is the point of matchmaking, not having matchmaking, is like throwing someone in the deep end, not everyone will be able to swim, and those that can't aren't going to want to do it again, thereby loosing you players! Matchmaking is an important part of competitive multiplayer games.
So in answer to your question
Is it more fun to shoot against average players 24/7?
Its a hell of a lot more fun than to shoot against players that vastly out perform you 24/7, yes. |

Blaming the matchmaking system for your lack of skills is ridiculous.
I thiught id leave this hear just so everyone can read how arrogant and childish this guy is. Hes probaby about 16 or 17 sitting at his mums house gauging by his tone . Id guess he is also suffering from some form of mental retardation and should be treated accordingly. With the proper help and support we might acctually make a viable citizen of him. |

Tiercide: remove tiers and at the same time, tears.
There will be minor despair and doomsaying about loss of progression, but to be honest tiercide is the best-looking alternative to this gear system which many seem to disagree with.
Matchmaking won't be necessary since everyone has the same gear (more or less). Differences will be much less pronounced than today, with customisation and specialisation leading to players having MORE OBVIOUS WEAKNESSES in addition to strengths.
Weaknesses AND strengths. This is the key to tiercide. Progression must lead to penalties as well as bonuses.
There are many threads on tiercide and to be honest, I haven't explained it so well here, but it's worth considering. |

There should still be matchmaking, at least for pubs, which at the moment is where the majority of the player base resides. PC, FW (when it becomes serious business), have at it!
