... How anyone thinks matchmaking is ever going to be balanced in a system that pits a full squad of Nyain San (or similar corp) against a team of completely unsquadded randoms? Can any dev justify why there isn't a mode for solo players (predominantly being comprised of new players) can play against other solo players?
What lapse in judgment does it require to think there's any way to balance that?
For that matter, why is there often two full squads on one side of the game, and 16 randoms on the other? Is CCP so daft as to not consider squad composition the most critical part of matchmaking balance, which it is? Can it not just realize "DURRRR, I should put a squad on EACH side of the match"?
It really doesn't seem to be attempting to balance teams at all. It's not even trying. What the heck does matchmaking do anyways? It's certainly not actually making matches.

solution:grab a squad or take a 3.5mm injection of manup
As cute as your response is, the reality is, full squads in pubs are making players leave the game long before they even figure out what the squad finder is, much less join a corp.

and match making will never work right with a low player count
You cannot balance squads with solo players. And whether you like it or not, there's a massive number of players in this game playing solo matches.
In FacWar, squadded organized play is expected. But highsec/public contracts need to be squadless so players playing alone, and especially newer players, have room to play.

[quote=deepfried salad gilliam]well again not enough people to split match making and they definitly shouldnt remove squadsQuote:
Exactly, remove squads entirely from that game mode, it doesn't split matchmaking, but balances the game far better.
[quote=deepfried salad gilliam]and for the record i hardly run squads and i suck
but im okay with that
Good for you. Most people aren't, and their response is to quit the game.

Removing squads from public contracts would push a lot of tryhard squads to playing FW, which would help improve the matchmaking pool for FacWar.
