Blue screen of the death here to …
Alway finish on a one way game with 3v5 or 4v5 …

This is so annoying. How we can play 30min if we are always disconnected, can change of team or in 1vs3 game ?
25 min that I try to play, I only played in one match. (Reconnect function doesn’t work).

There is not balancing with the matchmaking.

Evrey time ending up in 5vs1 or 2vs2 becouse players leaving.I hope i played 30 mins not fun at all when players leaving en there is a disatvantage.

[QUOTE=chippy;500026]Played 5 matches, all ended up in either 3v5 or a completely onesidede game.[/QUOTE]This was my experience too. It didn’t allow changing teams either, which may have fixed each game.

Also, not once did I get in a game where my ping was under 350… which I’m guessing just meant there weren’t many other Australian players on.

Had to press accept 10 times :smiley:

Then I had a 2v1 which turned into a 1v1 for the second round. After that I had 2 good rounds, but my team steamrolled the competition both times.

The window is 1 hour btw for people wondering.

Quick rundown of how matchmaking worked for me:

  1. I get games quick, after being harassed by the ACCEPT button a couple of times.
  2. Seems like I’m just as likely to be matched on the EU as the USA servers
  3. Leavers in every game.
  4. The skill level difference in this game is huge when it comes to completely new players and closed alpha testers / ET-players. You will need a really well done sorting algorithm to make the game enjoyable for the ‘newbies’ and players who are unfamiliar with these kind of fps games.
  5. The lobby chat isn’t working properly for me. I can input text into it but it won’t send it. But I’ve seen other players write.

I was happy to have finally played two “long” games… for nothing.
I guess I haven’t played 30 minutes in the 1 hour window :frowning:

All the abandons make it pretty uneven. Just finished a round - 1v5 :confused:

Now i’m having a tough time finding matches - keeps saying “could not find enough players”

  • Click “Accept” 50 times
  • Eventually it finds a game, but kicks back to frontend
  • Click “Accept” another 50 times
  • Eventually it finds a game, but this time it’s 5v3
  • Uneven team gets stomped or spawncamped…

[li]Hope that refilling the empty player slots during a map will be implemented, as well as switchteam thing.[/li][li]The small “connecting to a pool window” with “accept” and “cancel” buttons - accept button is highlighted but if you press “enter” it will actually cancel.[/li][li]Some people seem to disconnect right after joining the lobby, w/o any obvious reason. Perhaps they don’t itentionally do that and just get booted or dropped - a hint to this was that once actually after joining the lobby my client suddenly returned to matchmaking menu by itself.[/li][li]The constant “accept” clicking needs to go, atm it’s a bit silly. Also the intermediate message about rejoining the pool or something - it just blinks and disappears so fast that one can’t read it.[/li][li]The number of people in a humans pictogramm on connect window doesn’t correlate to the written message about how many players remaining to be found.[/li][li]Around 20:45 cet it wasn’t possible to matchmake any more - the system was always failing at one player remaining - tried many many times - and it was either timing out on one remaining or autocancelling it for some reason.[/li][/ul]

Happened to me multiple Time. End of timer = disconnected. Popup to reconnect = Error.

Had a few games, all of which were very one sided, the opposing team generally all had new players and we were vets with usually more players to boot. Much ragequitting from opponents :(.

Currently can’t get a game started at all as one of these things happens after much clicking of the ‘Accept’ button:

‘Last match failed to start server - pool rejoined’ (most common, can happen right away).
‘Timed out connecting to match server’
‘one of the matched players did not accept in time’ - this doesn’t make any sense as all but one match was a 5v4 or a 5v3. Match should just start anyway?
Or just kicked from game after lobby timer ends back to the start again :(.

1st match everyone had a +120 ping indicating the match took place on a US server (I’m in the UK).

Inability to swap teams needs fixing (even with switchTeam command), especially considering that most matches were uneven to begin with.

Had a match with all < 50 ping v all > 100 ping.

‘MATCH OVER. YOU WILL BE RETURNED TO THE FRONTEND AUTOMATICALLY’ seems to spam a bit much at end of game.

End of match results: :confused:







(.FROST.) #33

Matchmaking, seriously?!?! I clicked “Accept” like 20 times and then 20 times again, but just when there was only one more guy needed it would always terminated the frickin session.


(Ashog) #34

Oh, Kaszpir also playing?


(Violator) #35

This :frowning: Gave up after 10 mins :frowning: The one game that did get past all the hurdles and into the lobby all the oppo quit before the game started.

Also saw some Sparks playing, unless the merc removal was just for the 1 hour test window?


(Ashog) #36

That’s the point of matchmaking mini-game. You lost it!


(.FROST.) #37

Haha, exactly :smiley: I actually found a match finally. However, the funny thing is, it wouldn’t even let you play another match(aside from the 2 stopwatch matches) with the players from your current session. You’d have to do this whole matchmaking garbage all over again. Hope they won’t test this stuff for too long.

Edit: Nvm, the server list is up again, YAY!!!


(davidemo89) #38

They should copy and paste the matchmaking system from Ghost Recon Phantom. I think it’s the best user friendly matchmaking for a online fps I have ever seen.
And add some thing like “Lose X points if you exit from the game”


(BomBaKlaK) #39

Little story :

People say **** off and STFU to the bot at the end of the map saying whatever sayin stuff like you will be rederected to the main menu of thing like that
Telling them you are talking to a bot you know ? and say again : STFU !! I was just laughing to death !


(Mustang) #40

Haha, I was really surprised no-one did this during any of my games this evening.
