Sicerly Yaw Corrosive Synergy No Context 974	Posted - 2015.09.04 12:37:00 - [1] - Quote so back in the day it was fairly common to join matches that were halfway over and it was a pain however since there was a big outcry against it something was done to supposedly prevent it but now I have been seeing way too many half finished matches that I am getting placed in and its getting really annoying especially because I always end up on the team that isn't even trying now a simple fix would be to allow players to choose what matches they could join but only ongoing matches that are missing people rather then forcing everyone that queues up to have to deal with it and have no choice in the matter I bring this up in GD because I am not sure if it is just me experiencing this so I would like to hear from everyone else to see how common it is as I haven't seen many people complaining about it yet click here if you are making a new account and want some free BPO's

We only have ourselves to blame for this. But most importantly, let us point our fingers at the people who leave battles. FOR SHAME! I have been trying to get alternative solutions to matchmaking out there so that perhaps one of them will be accepted enough to be added to solve the underlying issues a reinforcement option to me seems like the best plan of action click here if you are making a new account and want some free BPO's

Or that. Give us a minute to wait in the warbarge and prep for battle. people already complain about long wait times in queues, I don't think this would help anyone, and if you do want to have some barge time you can simply hop into FW or better yet organize a PC part of the problem is the lack of high level competition so a lot of PC players squad up with each other and curve stomp everyone else there needs to be a way to separate the elites and tryhards from the newbros and casuals, matchmaking helps relieve some of these issues but others still persist I would say adding another option for players to potential get high payouts would be the way to go reduce isk payouts in pubs to about a max of 200k with a base of about 75k so that veteran players cant grind pubs for isk so easily and have to use cost effective gear if they wan to profit then add a game mode intended as a higher level pub with increased isk payouts implementing the keep what you kill but only isk wise so that we don't get an influx of officer gear going around I think that would be a better way to improve match quality and in these higher skill pub match's or special contracts whatever you want to call then there could be increased barge time for organization and what not along with reinforcement options in the low pay pubs or for both players could receive an extra 100k isk if they manage to win while reinforcing to encourage veteran players to help out teams that are getting stomped I know this would take some time to build up to but I do think something like this would go a long way to improve match quality and player experience while still encouraging competition but somewhat separating the masses so casual players and hardcore players don't mix too often and I don't want to hear about dust not having enough players to fill matches because a constant 2k is enough to field plenty of matches and we're usually hovering around 3k people so that should be more then enough especially if people stop leaving every match so we don't have as many matchmaking issues click here if you are making a new account and want some free BPO's

Bonus applied to EOM results. Freshly started but short only a couple mercs: maybe 5% bonus 50% shield and/or short 3-5 mercs: 10% Shields critical/down, armour >75%: 25% Armour 75% or less: 50% (double if you actually win) Numbers, obviously, open to debate I actually prefer a flat amount something around 100k would be fair but I say only pay for the reinforcement if they mange to win rather then rewarding them for still losing and it also prevent some players from taking advantage of the system rather then having just anyone join so they can get better isk rewards I think the main point of reinforcing would be to try to win instead of just going for kills or WP or only playing to get an extra % wing or lose having a flat bonus means players are more likely to prioritize matches that they think they can win while the more skilled players can choose to play the matches that are more then halfway over to maximize the profit they can gain from reinforcing I would like to refer to one of my previous posts where I go more into improving match quality for everyone click here if you are making a new account and want some free BPO's
