Guild Wars 2

I have just been looking at the detailed information that ArenaNet has posted about how the sPvP Matchmaking now works.

Regarding the new matchmaking, I am very impressed! I am impressed with the methods, and I am impressed with the transparency they have shown in publicly showing all the details of how it works.

As they begin to adjust it and “dial it in” during this two-week testing phase, I am certain that it will get better and better at finding serious players a good, COMPETITIVE match.

BEFORE YOU COMPLAIN, understand how complex of a task this is. When you are looking for a match THERE MAY NOT BE ANYONE AVAILABLE at your skill level. Yet, you still want a short wait time. Then, if you are thrown in with better players or a premade, you complain on the forums.

DEVS: I wish there was a variable that each player could set: MAXIMUM ALLOWABLE WAIT TIME in minutes. Set it short to get fast, perhaps un-fun match. Set it longer to wait until your level of players are available, to get a more fun match.
