Is there an ETA on the fix for being dumped into matches that are effectively over?
Still happening frequently for matches that are in full-stomp, or MCC is half-dead or clone count is low.
I understand there are some problems with the algorithm but could we just use any of the following variables for a start:
Time elapsed > 7 minutes (Skirm/Dom, much less for ambush)
Either MCC has lost shields
Clone count below 50 % for either team
The new 150 WP minimum is a curse at the moment because you are dropped into an almost over match, that in many
cases is undergoing proto-stompage so you are highly likely to lose suits , not get the 150 minimum and end up with no SP
to boot. For veterans this is just annoying, for new players this is disastrous.
Once the algorithm is working as intended however, there will be one downside (or upside?). Corps who stomp pubs hard enough
to force players to leave will in the worst case scenario be running around an empty map for the remainder of the match
as no new players will come in to fill the void.

If you're a veteran and can't reach 150 WP you're a scrub and don't deserve SP, and If you're sent into a match late and get less than 150 WP wouldn't have gotten a significant amount of SP even before these changes.
As for matches which can't be joined I think it should be no less than 125 clones (on either team) and 50% MCC Shields.

I would like to not have it dump into matches which aren't worth the payout (even when you come in half way through, hit the top of your teams leaderboard, the payout is crap.)
But the main benefit would be no more"MCC destroyed during loading screen." Forced to reload the game. For this reason, it should be implemented asap with something stupid like, less than 50% MCC armour or clones, match locked. Just to put an end to the annoying bug.
But I can guess the ETA is somewhere around SoonGäó... |

I agree. Everybody should be capable of scoring 150 WP in thirty seconds including spawn time.
If you can't, you shouldn't be playing a SuperHarcoreCompetitiveFPS like DUST514 and you ought to return to Hello Kitty Island Adventures posthaste.
But in seriousness, I can barely be bothered spawning if my team's at 50% MCC; those sorts of matches are the ones where someone left because they were getting stomped so hard, and all I can achieve by spawning is losing money - not the most productive of activities.
Guys, we need to stop calling MU a 'matchmaker' when it's actually a 'teambuilder'.
And I want to play FE:A now. Damn.

Would be nice if there was a 'reinforcement bonus' for anyone who joins after a certain time and gets over 50% of the top scorers wp (or some sort of requirement to avoid random afkers joining.) |

Could be an idea. I'm just still wondering whether it will result in half-empty matches when it's implemented, but then again, it might actually teach people to temper their stomping habits .... |

I know, hence my post. Now if they could actually get it to work it would be good. But they're on chinese new year holidays so I don't think we'll see any news until next week.

I got put into mathed twice yesterday where they ended before I had even gotten to the spawn selection map. Crashed my ps3 both times.
I had never had that happen before the 'entering almost-over matches' was "fixed" |

What does that have to do with anything? Before, I used to get around 250 SP for that sprint. I was given SOMETHING for my time, rather than nothing. |
