It comes aparent to me that players complain on both sides of the field.
1) One group of players complains about being put in half finished matches.
2) While the other group of players complain about players leaving the battle.
*The first group that complains about being put in half finished matches is filling up the empty Slots for the players complaining about players leaving.
As you all can see this is quite an endless cycle and just goes around on the forums. Sooo Complaining to CCP about this on the Forums will not help; due to the fact that they are most likely in the same conundrum as we all are.
Seems tricky trying to help both sides of the Playing field doesnt it ?
Instead I ask you all for suggestions on ways to help CCP fox matchmaking.

Few are so dedicated to the game, many are here to exploit for easy wins. It tends to kill the game if the devs can't do anything about the short comings of a game. At this point I think its too late to do anything, well its just me being pessimistic so who knows

how about faggots like Sedat Berat stop protostomping in one match and then immediately quitting the next! It's ALWAYS the ones you see try-harding like their life depends on it who are rage-quitting games. ALWAYS. they only want easy games.
for matchmaking to work, people need to want competitive games, but they don't, they want to have boring easy games whilst destroying the playerbase and making sure nobody else has fun.
you can't make selfish people care. |

A penalty of some sort for leaving early sounds good at first glance, however, it is not that simple to apply. It would need to also take into account the fact that there are real life issues that come up on occasion, as well as PSN / network issued outside of our control.
Logging the completed / left early stats would be a good first step, with any proposed 'punishment' applied on an incremental level over time (matches left / matches offered for the last day / week / last x# games). Maybe after x# leaves, you're booted for the day like team killers in FW.
Also, this needs to be balanced against the motivation to complete the match. I don't intentionally leave games, no matter how bad it gets, unless RL issues come up (kids come before a silly game, lol).
If people are regularly leaving, there must be reasons for it. I'm sure many people leave for kdr stats, or the perception of unfair mechanics (like the self fulfilling prophecy of the other team keeping point, all vets leave, then of course they keep the point), but I'm sure that there are also legitimate reasons that could / should be addressed.
I think a 'leave limit' should be implemented, high enough to forgive occasional leavers, low enough to avoid abuse. From my perspective, 5 leaves in a day accounts for Stat padding / abuse, so I'd say 5 leaves in a day and you're kicked for the day...

Players leaving battle is the result of the problem, not the problem itself.
Note: There is no single magic fix that will cure all of the matchmaking problems at once.
There are however things we can do to mitigate.
- Meta cap
- Incentivising the good squads to go play FW
- Rewarding players who routinely finish all battles
- etc.
These would help. They wouldn't make every battle perfectly even, but would make an improvement

I just play man. Some of yall have too much free time. I get a few matches at best a week, If nobody is on in my corp, I try squad finder, if no go I'm immediately in games solo. I don't leave battles, I go in and do what I can, or what I want to with the time and manpower allotted. Feels good coming in a game halfway over and turning it around for the blues, or if not, coming out on top of both teams. Idc about wins, losses, kd, or anything. I'm trying to enjoy my time. More ppl need to care less and play for fun more.

Matchmaking is completely unnecessary for a game with with such a small player base... Random battles with random sqwads always seemed to have full battles...
I never played another game where you could have one third the enemy team's players and then the next 2 players join the enemyteam making it EVEN MORE UNBALANCED...
HONESTLY HOW COULD THE SIMPLICITY OF 1 FOR YOU AND 1 FOR ME BE UNDER-CODED?

Randomly placing protostopmers against noobs is the problem.

Fighting better, more organized, high SP mercenaries has conditioned us to leave our noob cocoons..
Leaving noobs to fight just noobs is not the way to teach players the ins and outs of Being a successful merc.

I've started just leaving matches. Playing solo and being stuck on a team of 6 v 14 at the very beginning is just a waste of time. Even worse since my MU is so high and the other team always has two squads on it.

Being able to q-sync in pubs has been the doom of this game since beta.
If we want a truly balanced match with matchmaker remove squads and leave battle option from pubs.
If some dire emergency come's up turn your PS3 off and take care of it. If you leave battle you lose the suit anyway. |

Its one thing I want to talk to CCP about with the player base. Its not fair for high MU players to be stacked against full squads and its not fair for new players to be stuck on the high MU players team and be put against those squads either. It kills the enjoyment not only for me, but for the players going 0/16 with less then 100 WPs .

Lol, I have three fits named H3XER, a light, medium, and heavy, ready for when I see you in the killfeed. (or any other jumpy hitty splashy guys...)
One of my favorite dust moments was melee'ing you whilst you were in your melee fit.

Use my CPM platform suggestion GÇô match slots.
You get two or three and if you leave a game you have to wait until that match finishes for that slot to be available again.

Losing money? It's a pub match! Go in with STD/MLT suit with MLT/STD/ADV gear, you have to die about 15+ times and not try to lose money dude! I'm usually running a mix of STD/MLT with maybe enhanced repper, reactive plate, or myofibs. To restock the suit is typically less than 10k, usually far less. My 'expensive' suits are closed to 20k, and those are 'special case' fits. I average 200k ISK / match. That translates to an average about 150k+ ISK profit each match for me (yes, I tend to die a lot). If we're really getting stomped, then go straight MLT / Starter fit.
If you're running Proto in pubs then you shouldn't be crying about losing ISK. Running a 200k+ setup with no real risk / gain on the backend is just plain silly. There's no Faction Pride at stake, or clone packs or districts to be lost. Pubs are simply the practice / learning / giggles grounds. Go in to have fun and grind the ISK while your at it. I love knowing I killed a Proto with my MLT / STD setup. |

Delt for CPM2... FML Its one thing I want to talk to CCP about with the player base. Its not fair for high MU players to be stacked against full squads and its not fair for new players to be stuck on the high MU players team and be put against those squads either. It kills the enjoyment not only for me, but for the players going 0/16 with less then 100 WPs . Yeah, but, you already said it. Making you one of the battle leavers imo, forever. So glad I didn't toss you a vote.
I like to think of it as a form of protest that CCP can see in the data. As I don't have an ability to talk to CCP as of right now directly this is a way to show them matchmaking doesn't work from data points.

Can we have a skunk rule? If to many players leave one side, the game gives victory to the other team.
I dont feell like waiting for a predecided battle to drag out till one MCC blows up. I try to stay in matches but 5 v 12 is not fun to play against.
Its lame people only want easy kills to pad KDR so maybe KDR should be taken away.
Starter Fit Suits are OP :-)

Idk, I've been in some 5 v 12's that were actually close battles. That, I think, shows the problem with thinking it's all about the numbers. Remember that pubs host everyone from the elite squads to the drooling noobs. Sure, it's definitely tougher when they more than double your numbers, and with half a brain they should manage to cover your points of entry reasonably well, but that also means that you (presumably, the more experienced vet) need to find more creative ways of teaching them to stay on their toes.
Flanking the noobs while they cover the obvious paths can be fun too, it doesn't have to always be the same boring 'run, shoot, hack' over and over.
When I started this game around a year ago, the big complaint was about Proto stomping in pubs. Now, it sounds like those same protostompers are leaving instead of simply playing the game.
If the game is only fun when you win, maybe you should find a different pastime. Entitlements do not, and should not, exist on the battlefield.
Really starting to sound like old protostompers crying about not getting free wins. I can tell you this much - the day this game becomes 'challenge free' will be the day I quit. Want boring, easy wins? Go play Farmville. I hear they even have a sequel (because, you know, it's so much FUN). |

Fighting better, more organized, high SP mercenaries has conditioned us to leave our noob cocoons..
Leaving noobs to fight just noobs is not the way to teach players the ins and outs of Being a successful merc.
What would life be without a challenge?
I see gamers need to be pampered nowadays, bunch of spoiled punks we are going to raise, just you watch. All I hear is "we aren't good enough for competition, so please let the 8 of us stomp on the same patch of noobs until they stop being noobs, then they can join us and stomp on all the other noobs" Because good fights are for pussies. Are you seriously trying to flip my words around? I see you are one of those pathetic wimps that bad gaming has nurtured... Ladies and Gentelclones, I present to you DUST Fiend.. A dust player who chooses to fly around the map doing loopty loops, refusing to land on the ground and help a merc out with some grunt work. INSTEAD, he will either choose one of these 2 paths: Fly a mile high or jusy leave battle when the going gets tough. Like I said, ya'll a bunch of wimps and I gauge EVERY SINGLE MERC I come across and keep a pretty clear mental record on the circumstances that lead to their eventual departure from battle. AHA! Clarification has hit me, now I know why you are flipping my words... It's because I flip your dropship like a pancake right? Lol, I have three fits named H3XER, a light, medium, and heavy, ready for when I see you in the killfeed. (or any other jumpy hitty splashy guys...) One of my favorite dust moments was melee'ing you whilst you were in your melee fit. -¬_-¬
Haha, ya you will almost never find me without a melee fit, unless I am Forging with 4 damage mods for obv OP tanks..
Devadander, you and other merc's who have landed knockout hooks on my face... you all make me soo proud!
You took notes. You learned from them. Then changed your playstyle when neccessary ( Like when I'm on Opposing Team )
Great example of a good gamer right thurrrr.

Doesn't matter if the people don't actually play once they are matched up.
This playerbase will still hide in the redline. Matchmaking just removed new players from veteran matches. This showcased the number of veteran players who sandbag match after match.
Add back in the new players and the matches would be more fun for veterans who actually shoot at people when they turn on this FPS called Dust, but you'd still have an NPE problem.
I don't think it's possible to match make with this playerbase. I think you should be able to toggle your player to ACTION mode, these players would actually play Dust.
Toggling to SPECTATOR mode would give them a small amount of ISK per day. There would be a video on a loop of a sniper sitting 500 meters away from anything.
This way the matches could be filled with players who actually want to play. |
