I am so tired of being roflstomped by top notch squads with top tier gear. First of all, as a noob i dont want to have to deal with this. I can tell who will win in the lobby by looking at the corps involved on each side. And even if i get paired with the good corp, im still not relevant. Its not fun, even if i win, when its clear the only reason i won is because of the the top 4 guys have 20/0. This game is so flawed. And im sure your all going to say "Look noobie just go find some 1337 corp to carry you"... oh that is so weak. I just want to play against other scrubs, in matches where my actions feel relevant. HOW HARD can it possibly to put some intelligence into your match maker? If i play an instant battle, i want to play with others around my skill level and sp level. DUH. that should be obvious to any dev. Instead im just cannon fodder, whose great idea was that? who ever it was should be fired |

Sound like a typical CCP fix, all instant battles need some intelligent matchmaking or you just get one sided match after one sided match. Reminds me of black lights lvl 10 caped noobie servers, you level past that cap so quickly its irrelevant. Better than nothing, but still not the correct solution to the issue. CCP should be looking towards gaijin and wargaming for good examples of proper matchmaking. |

HTFU Apparently, way too many people don't care about the EVE universe or some schmucks who regularly spout drivel like "HTFU" in response to decent suggestions for the game. But it's pretty likely that the lack of a proper matchmaking system and resulting pubstomps has caused so many people to turn their backs on DUST that it's already lost thousands of potential players who will probably never come back to it.
Yeah in this day and age you only get to make one impression, and with the younger crowd its absolutely true. I used to love EvE, so that keeps me around Dust longer than it would have otherwise. If this wasnt related to EvE, i would have quit after my first pubstomp. Hell, i tossed my keyboard across the room after I got deployed against the same proto-gear squad 4 times in a row.
I just dont understand these Devs that seem to put off paying attention to the most important part of a game like this: its matchmaker. I have a feeling that 90% of the people who come around to play this game that never heard of EvE, will spend the majority of their time in instant battles before ever coming around to planetary conquest.. or even joining a corp. So if your core instant battle portion of the game doesnt produce good matches, how are you ever going to get a decent playerbase? I really hope this new matchmaker for noobies gets extended well beyond the first couple of matches, or its useless.
I want a direct answer from CCP: Please explain to me how you are not dumb.

Game is still busted, the academy kicks people out way too soon. Lowbees still get pubstomped in instant matches. Also the factional battles are prone to having an entire corp join on the enemy team vs randoms. Or worse, corps putting trolls on the enemy team. Its all so damn flawed, and its flawed because they have NO matchmaker, its painful. And i've started to do better, i get 10\2 rounds with meta 1 gear, but ultimately when the entire team is rolling proto gear, it drops to 5/20 .. and there is no hope for my pug team. Its fail, how hard is it to do some simple matchmaking. Squad A skill level X , then put in another squad close to skill level X. I dont care if the wait time goes up, i want good matches.
I dont see how making a FAIR instant battle matchmaker, has anything to do with your asymmetrical pvp fail spreadsheet tab123 combat that eve offers. You'll get your sad New Eden representation when the one guy who is awake at 4am has to defend his district from 16 stomp hungry russians. |

It is far too low, thats like what 20 matches for an avg player? you are in and out of academy in a day. Then your stuck playing vs meta 4/5 squads in your meta 0/1 gears... FOR MONTHS. Yeah, if you want a large playerbase, better think of something quick, like a matchmaker for your instant battles... or a militia gear only instant battle mode... |

Bump, if your active player count dropping by 20% doesn't prove to you how badly you screwed up CCP, i dont know what else will, other than another 20%.
Matchmaker, for instant battles, asap. |
