This just happened to my squad in domination (train map) again. Second time in a row that we had an insanely lopsided match on that map. When we first loaded in, it was 12v8, and the numbers just kept dropping from there.
Nobody was put in the match to replace the mercs that left. |

Then why on earth were the two teams unbalanced to begin with?

Mashed potato is how the last match I saw you in went lol
Yup. My entire squad was lagging really badly- you shot one of them while behind a wall at one point  and everyone was blue shielding when we shot them.

Because one team's mu scores may have been higher than the other team's mu scores... so they gave the other team an advantage by allowing them to have a few more players.
And not replacing anyone who left?
The last 2 matches I've been in have been full and there has been minimal wait for battles (<1 minute). I would prefer a 2 minute wait and full match :P |

Team size seems to take a backseat to mu balance; so long as both teams have 10+ players then the match kicks off.
Both teams didn't have 10. The enemy started with 8, while we had 12. |

Yeah, it looked ok quality on my phone, but apparently it didn't translate into any other device. |

He had a tank, he got quite a few +75s from our vehicles. |

However there are still WTF moments, like my 8 million SP alt playing against the exact same players as my 45 million SP alt even though my monthly W/L ratio is .5 on it and 1.5 on my 45 million one. I have to say though that it might make sense because I am doing ok with it.
I think vets are the ones most put out by the changes. I have seen threads with vets complaining that pubs are TOO competitive now, which cracks me up and underlines the problem matchmaking was meant to fix. I think it has largely worked with the biggest remaining issue is people leaving matches. I am a vet and I never have had such bad numbers. Running solo I'm getting lopsided games against stacked squads and games that are half over and already lost. I've even qued into the defeat screen at least 3 times today alone. It's not that we don't want a challenge, I hardly ever leave a game but this 1 sided **** is for the birds.
Yup, I have pretty much stopped playing solo because I kept being put into matches where I couldn't even spawn in before I got the defeat screen. It would take at least 2-4 attempts for me to get into a fresh match running solo most nights.
I've even taken to using squad finder. Apparently the majority of people who also use it are under 13 and think voice changers are hilarious.
This match in particular did not appear to have any squads on the enemy team, however there were 3 small squads on my side.
Matchmaking had actually been really good for a few days, and I'd been having fun in really close battles, but today was constant redlining by one side or the other.
I have also noticed that my 8.something mil SP alt has been being put in battles with full proto squads, whereas this account (26mil SP) has seen much, much less proto and far fewer organised squads when I have been playing solo. |
