Whenever I run solo, I'm constantly put up against full squads of elite enemies. I reliably never have them on my own side.
I know I should be running in a squad if I want to be playing competitively, but it sure gets tedious when I can't play for fun because I know I'm the only person on my team capable of challenging the enemy. So what's the deal with this matchmaking? |

Either there is, and it judges me to be an equal threat to an entire Maphia squad (I wish), or there isn't, and I have beaten million:1 odds for bad luck in the last week. |

Matchmaking is currently based off of ELO ratings, so it's mathematically correct. There's too many variables to have this used as the only matchmaking system though (gear, squads...). |

the days of running solo seem to be way gone. especially for a scout
I ran up against a squad of Cal logis with proto AV nades and flaylocks and drove around in LLAVs.
lol. I lasted nanoseconds.

with such low numbers of players I think the match making is only placing your with available players online with good ping..
we will talk matchmaking when Dust will have more then 10 000 players.. ho no wait the record is not even 10 000 lol Current record:9,255 (2013-05-19 20:31:00) http://eve-offline.net/?server=dust unless you want to wait minutes and minutes to find a "fair" match the current "matchmaking" is still a miracle that it's finding you a game to join with such a low number of players. |

don't get me wrong. I am not hating on it. It's just part of the game.
But if you are running that set up you may as well admit you couldn't play this game without every available crutch possible. |

the reason your getting put aganst proto squads is that in the 20 seconds it searches for players to fill a game theres only so many players available for battle
in that 2 minuites the available player field who have signed up for battle may look like
30 or so solo players
2 partial squads of random gearsets
1 full proto squad
needless to say the game wont deny the proto squad games just because theres no equil playrs qued up in that minute so it puts them in a game with the partial squads and whatever decent SP solo players on the other team, then fills it with randoms
one step further it takes order into account
so proto squad ques and theres only other randoms in que
team1 6 randoms
team 2 full proto because no other option
then since the teams are balanceed when more players join the que it will put say the partial on team 1, then since the teams are imbalanced it has to put some players on team 2 to balance it out out of whoever ques in the next 30 seconds, so it starts to fill the teams.
the matchmaking is great.... its just that there arnt enough players qued up at a single time for it to make much of a difference |

You know, we try to compensate. 3 pros and 3 absolute noobs, so matchmaking count the squad as a unique average player xD anyway, no. Imo there's no matchmaking, and for the number of players playing dust everyday, is even better.
