Guild Wars 2

When will this bad joke end? You’re forced to queue dodge in order to avoid a guaranteed bad matchup from your previous game every time, excluding maybe the prime evening hours. And don’t make the “small playerbase” excuse because I made sure more than 20 players at my rating were queueing at that time. And of course the players on both teams end up on the same sides every time, shouldn’t it be more random considering we’re all of “equal skill”?

Fix please. cant express how enraging it is to get the same kittens on my team who never touched gw2 since buying it, losing over and over and because of them.

When the people que right after they left the match, yeah the chance you meet at least one of them again is high – specially if you aren’t playing at prime time – 5 min que-dodge should be enough, maybe even less

And since you can run in the open world, i don’t see a problem

I had this issue, had 2 people ( guess they where duo Q ) and they where bad, always ended up getting them, so I dropped them quickly onto my ignore list, and waited for it to show they where in a map, then Q’d again, never got them again, and then just removed them from block list.

From my experience in platinum 2, it’s getting pretty common to play with and against players i recognise from past games. And it doesn’t seem like there’s a tendencies for players i recognise to always be on my or the other side.
It’s not only ‘in a row’, but from day to day.
I guess in my case, it’s mainly because there isn’t that many players around this mmr.

It’s something i didn’t really experienced in gold/silver (it happend like 4 or 5 times over 100-ish games)

if you are too desperate, you could wait 3-7 min before enter to queue again… they should be playing already when you get on queue…

This weekend I had a span of 4 games in gold t3 where I had pretty much the same team against pretty much the same team. Why isn’t matchmaking mixing it up a bit?

Last 2 days i lost over 200 points cause players have 0 clue about basics i mean really basic stuff, even tho im still platinium i dont feel the joy to play pvp atm , because anet cant put 10 players of equal skill in the same game.

Or maybe its you and the team lost because of you
maybe you are just a bad player who belongs in bronze and you just got lucky in placement?
see, what I did there?
so stop whining and " git good"….you should be able to carry your whole team, if you are that good………………

As long as you have mixed queues with teams of 2-5, mismatches will always exist. This has existed since solo and team queue were separated and leagues began.s Mixed queues always screws over solo queuers.

ANet NEEDS to separate queues again—no duos, no trio, no 4-man. 1-man and 5-man ONLY.

This is the main problem since alpha, the match maker try to expand your match quality and force you to paired/against others that not even or equal on your caliber level. Intended? Who knows.

Actually what bothers me a lot about current matchmaking is that 1. a lot of alt accounts/NA players on EU/season afkers taking top spots and not playing regularly which leads to 2. stacked teams of top 10-25 consistently facing teams of 1700-1800 rating (how does it even happen, blows my mind, no way those teams have nowehere near similar overall MMR, it doesn’t even attempt to mix the teams). It leads to absolutely lopsided matches (how the hell am i supposed to win games with people zerging 4v1 vs teams consisting of pro league players?) and even if you manage to win vs those top 10 you gain almost nothing. It happens over and over and over again and is beyond discouraging and demotivating. Would you queue if you knew you are guaranteed to lose?

I guess a leftover from the Season 2 system where it paired people with similar MMR on one team.

I had a game like this during NA prime today. I was 1670 MMR I wanted to see how NA prime was so i queued up. First match, vs toker’s alt + 2 other pro league players + the other 2 whom I knew were on the leaderboard somewhere.

My team? Half were gold and maybe 1 guy was on the leaderboard.

I lost -8 but that’s just dumb it was legit a 0% chance to win game lol.

You can’t tell me that during NA prime there’s low population and no better matches to match me up with lmao.

add the bads to your friends list, then wait for them to be in a match, the Q. easy as that.
