Yeah, really? How this is considered fair is beyond me. We were actually hoping to be on the other team TBH. Yet they barely managed to kill 5 of us while our side massacred 80 of them (reg ambush).
This kind of unbalanced gameplay happens way too often.

Matches suck when it's like this. So boring!

Well that was a beatdown, the matchmaking system is like E Harmony, screws up who you go in with and you end up going to a situation that makes you lose faith in what your trying to accomplish. |

There's a new spawn system in Ambush. I haven't heard about new matchmaking though. When did that happen? |

Something along these lines, there was some experiments going on...

That is all I could find for now, but there was more. Basically it was some way to make matches more 'fair' based on player skills etc, which was supposed to make finding matches take longer.
No idea when or if they stopped it... but yeah... based on these results I doubt it's still going on, but they never said it had stopped (to my knowledge).

"today's experiment" on the 17th of last month is your source?
I'm not sure that's ongoing... |

The last I heard about it, from a CCP post on these forums somewhere, was that the matchmaking system was live for a couple-few days, but has been switched to passive learning mode for now.
I think because peeps were complaining about it so much while it was young and still learning.
So right now it isn't shuffling peeps around to build balanced rosters, but is making internal predictions which are compared to match outcomes, and presumably the model is then adjusted or adjusts itself.
Would love to hear a little bit about the predictive technology you're using here CCP. |

The match results you listed clearly shows 3 larger corporations (most likely with voice chat and all in 1 squad) that can coordinate and teach each other on one side. While the other side has a lot of single blue dots without help. That team could have better than yours, but even then they just have no way to work as a team, which is their downfall. |

I agree that teamwork gave them an edge, but the factor that made the match brutally unfair is that the side with the teams were all what I would call "leaderboard" corporations. They have players with more skill points invested and hence superior gear to most. The other side had a bunch of NPC corps with whom are likely running militia gear still.
Unlike COD or battlefield, teamwork and skill are only 50%, the rest is allocated sp and gear. Dont forget this is mmo progression. |

Matchmaking will never be a perfect science. Besides, if you want a challenge, enter these matches alone, I dare ya. |

There was also a high chance the other team didn't want to be team players. Been yelling at blue berries all day yesterday, Couldn't even kill one stupid militia tank because of the lack of coordination. |

If you are random player.
1 Go check corp standing, remember some of them..
2 If you join ambush and on opposite team you have 4 from top 10 corps and 0 on your team leave,
3 Your are mercenary not, brainless cannon fodder.. |

Matchmaking doesnt exist if you are a solo player
I play solo alot and what happens is all the solo players get put together on the same team, our enemy tho consistanly are 2 4man groups and smaller groups every game
It doesnt matter what mode you are doing its the way it is, groups always get put with other groups and mainly face against randoms and now n again maybe 1 group
So consistantly its games with lots of tanks or just redlining, id like to bring out my tank and fight the other tanks but i know i will get an OB dropped on me instead of an actual tank battle or its go to sniper rifle town |
