....cause they can't protostomp anymore, how sad!! The insane number of squads dropping out just shows how much they don't want a fair fight. Rattati please press on with the new matchmaking, if they leave (which they won't) it will make dust a better game for others.

You are right, though I think however, that a lot of those squads leave because of members not getting into the battle. This is a serious issue, and should be top of the list for Rattati to solve. Apart from that some sort of penalty for constantly leaving battles is necessary to punish the cowards. |

poor matchmaking at its best last night, 10vs1 or other gross imbalances 16 vs 8, 12 vs 9, just encourages more people to leave too.

It happens at least 1 out of 5 battles when I play. Or the fact that you wait 5 minutes with a rf1 posted everywhere, then as soon as "waiting for deployment" pops up someone x's up.
As much as I want to see punishment for leaving battles, the last thing Dust needs is more people deploying solo to avoid getting punished for Scotty being an idiot. |

But pub-scrubs won't understand the concept of playing together so that thought never occurs to them.
Like Thor said, it may be best to have it to where it's more like X amount of times in a certain period of time. Even then, I've seen scotty **** up four times in a row with a six man squad. Best thing to do is fix scotty ASAP or kick his ass to the curb for sleeping on the job so much.

Played a bunch of battles last night. Other than most of the battles being short players, the fights were incredibly well matched and far more difficult than they were earlier this week. It seemed as if we were only going up against experienced players with similar levels of SP (i.e. high levels of SP).
I loved it. People who worry about KDR or who don't like good fights won't like it at all, I suspect. |

Within 8 matches me and a full squad of 6 went into battle never once lost someone but saw so many people dropping. I know its not because of losing teamates because it was the exact same people oh n reason battles arent now 16 vs 16 as much cuz theres more balanced matches n teams so hey better matches because there are allot of solo players and small squads. |

Last night, I had the most fun matches I've had in months. They were incredibly close and the teams were very even, even though we didn't always have the same number of people on both teams. Initially, I was frustrated because I wasn't achieving ludicrus K/D's anymore, but once I got over that and started focusing on having fun... It was great. Now that I'm not worrying about my stats like the scrub I was, I feel... free!

I started coming to that realization myself. I think you get accustomed to playing against people who just stopped licking windows long enough to fire a few rounds in your direction.
I do feel like we need to get increased payouts with this new matchmaking. Increased payouts and some type of penalty for leaving matches and I think it could generate a lot of fun. |

Maybe just increased payouts for those in the upper band? Since we're the guys that are more likely to use expensive gear.

I think more people are complaining because of games not being filled. 1 Out of roughly 15-20 games last night was filled for me. not because people left, they left after noticing the game was only half full. |

Considering that there are an extremely humongous larger amounts of complaints of the issue of people leaving rather than squaddies getting kicked out and how nobody else I talk to that does normally squad is reporting this I am hard inclined to believe this.

I have to agree. I have found that the number of challenging and fun battles have increased in number since the update. I will have to play several more matches to confirm. =)

In case you haven't encountered it, there is a crazy Scotty bug going around where he deploys you out of the blue, puts you into a battle but before you can spawn he removes the whole squad. This can go on for ages. It is currently happening in the squad I'm in. Not saying it's all from this bug because it obviously isn't.
Matchmaking is actually very good now with some awesome fights to be had!

I was wondering. I've seen you guys leave battle immediately like 14 battles in a row. |

Aha! A witness.
The last one it put us in I was there long enough to see that a battle was actually taking place so, evidently, it's not happening to everyone.

Played quite a bit this week, had 2 days off in a row. Here are some things I noticed...
1. I can't shoot. 2. Had some really good fights, and some really boring ones. 3. I'm usually deployed on the short handed team, therefore I must be OP. 4. Train map, in ambush, skirmish and dom. A lot. 5. Plasma cannons. In your face. 6. Half the squad deployed, half not, often. 7. Long queue times. Good for pee breaks and making sandwiches. 8. I die to a lot of different things now, which is good. 9. Oh look, train map again. 10. My warbarge will never be any use being able to only play once a week.
The frustration of the core balancing issues and core gameplay issues remain, but there is some fun to be had. Apparently my sub 2 kdr and inability to hit moving targets is counterbalanced by the wp siphoning I do, which still qualifies me to be put in with the big dogs. Interested in seeing where this goes.

Up until Scotty started bugging out on me (nearly an hour ago now), I've had nothing but great games (in a full squad). No late entries, no lag, very few useless blueberries, and all round intense battles, many coming right down to the wire.

There are only a few things really breaking the new match making.
Scotty/PSN - Sometimes people just do not make it into a match and most real squads are going to back out for those members. There is not a lot that can be done for this except for being sure their place gets taken which they are currently adjusting.
Squad members hitting the wrong button - See the first explanation.
The Train Map - I do not think anything needs to be said here.
W/L and K/D whores who quickly leave when they see anyone who has previously killed them. - I say we publically shame these people with a DNF leader board and call those leaves a loss automatically to hurt those stats they are trying to protect. Maybe their fear of being laughed at or not recruited thanks to being very high in the all time leader board of not finishing battles will make them think twice about this activity.
TL;DR
Give us a DNF leader board so we can point, laugh, and kick corp members who do nothing but attempt to pad their stats.

What are u talking about that there are whining. How do u expect new player to survive in a game where most of veteran player got all the better stuff. Come on man, do u not see what problem is within the game itself that u get into a lobby where other team is half full. While some of them quit in the middle of the game. No wonder the player base in this game is dead. |

I've been cussing you guys for screwing up my matches. It didn't matter though. The people on my team were so ******* worthless that virtually the entire enemy team leaving battle still ended up in stomps. |

Lifetime SP and WP?
I haven't seen a proper protostomp yet. I've seen a squad here and there, but never enough to have much of a sway against one or two protos on our team - since they are now usually backed by fully competent adv players, with only the occasional useless blueberry.

It hurts because I've had two 3-day omegas running since just before the new matchmaking kicked in. Guess I shoulda been paying attention. Oh well.
It sucks because up until Scotty started messing with me I had been having a great day on DUST. Some of the closest battles I've ever had on DUST occured today. Great matchmaking = great fights.
EDIT: YES! I didn't get "Scottied"! Get in!
