I've always tried to push the point of tier'd match making. CCP never seemed to bite at it. |

No not really.
HOWEVER the Academy does need to be extended, DRAMATICALLY your talking at least 50 matches.
It also needs to be the last step in the tutorial not the only step.
Tiered Matchmaking doesn't solve anything it just multiplys the problem by 3.
Unless your a Computer Scientist don't tell me how Game Mechanics Work.

The big problem CCP have for matchmaking is low player numbers. The player base is already fragmented 21 groups: 7 game modes...
* Academy
* Ambush (1)
* Skirmish (1)
* Domination (1)
* Minmatar/Amarr Faction War (2)
* Caldari/Gallente Faction War (2)
* Planetary Conquest
across three regions (EU, US, AP/Oceana).
Some players combine some of those game modes, of course - (1) and (2).
Simply adding another game mode will fragment even further.
The solution, as I see it, is contract matching. Players fill in a form detailing the kinds of battles they are happy to fight in; the servers generate battles that will be acceptable to the most players.

CCP experimented with lots of options for the length of the academy, and found that if it was too long then players would get bored and quit without ever knowing what else was available.
Fully agree that a much better new-player-experience is required though. That's why I'm such a fan of adding PVE to the game, even though it probably wouldn't be something I'd do a lot of myself.

The tryhards will never have it. Would be fun to go against the supposed best using only MLT/STD gear.
I may be missing something, but I'm pretty sure that I didn't call for a tank nerf before Uprising 1.7. - Atiim

Going against new players in a tank is the Noble way to go... |

Using tanks against PRO infantry isn't fair, so what's a team composed of mostly > 1mil SP players supposed to do?

Stay in academy, train properly ...
Rather than jumping in the Ocean without knowing how to swim... Not that it'd help in the Ocean, but it'd help them last a little longer. Rather than going 1-23, they may be able to go 2-3, 4-5 or even more with some decent WP |

I'm not toeing the infantry line.
