Guild Wars 2

Thank you anet for this matchmaking and mixing soloQ and teamQ! now with my friendlist i can reach top leaderboard by farming all night long poor pu and get >80% ratio, feeling pro.

…wat

The PvP in this game is dead so it dosent have a working matchmaking system because there is nobody near that MMR range playing at the same time so they just put solo Q vs premade.

And even if they put high MMR solo Q’ers vs high MMR premade, the premade will still win 9 times out if 10 unless they are not in TS and playing some random troll builds.

So the whole matchmaking system is a fail. Not only in theory but also in game.

And Anet’s response to this is to promote it in eSports like cancer. Bravo, lads. Bravo.

I find the matchmaking system to be working just fine. I would much rather play a game and be challenged immediately (1-2 minutes) rather than wait 20-30 minutes to find the perfect matchup.

What everyone seems to overlook is that the people who browse these forums is an extreme minority of the total number of people who actually play the game. Just because people on the forums whine the loudest, doesn’t mean they speak for everyone. And ANET doesn’t solely consult the forums for feedback.

It takes 2 minutes for you to find a match? It takes like 10 minutes for me :\

You should test that theory. Ask people their opinions in the PvP lobby about the match making system. I agree with you that just about any set of forums for a game are a loud minority, but it isn’t very true in this regard.

…. wait 4.53 AM

^^ according to some people, getting farmed by the same premade 8 times in a row is somehow a ’’challenge’’.

Then sure the matchmaking works fine if you think that way. You might aswell start the game 3v5 for a better challenge and claim that you’re having fun.

Seriously man.. if it wasent for the ’’expansion’’ people would already quit this game long time ago, and they will do so , if the expansion sucks.

Tonight i earn like 20-30 points leaderboard with my friendlist, reach top 10 and get my pve armor.

I congratulate myself cause i’m the boss.

Hey bud, I dunno what you’re doing wrong, but I’ve played against my fair share of premades vs. solo, and I’ve never been “farmed”, maybe 250-500. And when the odds are stacked against you, losing a game like that most likely won’t even drop your ranking. So I consider games like that practice

ahah ! i forgot ! i laught about people who’s playing soloQ !

Hey there, nice screenshot, perhaps you should include the few lines of harassment you and your team members did before I wrote that line out of annoyance. Apologies.

The excuse of a low number of players is a bad one. The matchmaking system is just horrible right now. ANET tried to get creative and add in a bunch of factors that had nothing to do with actual skill.

It really takes talent to take the ok system that existed previously and make it even worse. Grats ANET.

I wish they would just go back to the old system for crying out loud.

The solution is simple. yet arena net always ignores it. Bring back soloq

5 am e-sports. Daamn, son.

Don’t worry, it’s just a test season.

Yeh, all they do is try to ram esports down our throats. And it still doesn’t take off because the game is dead.

It all started when they stopped doing balance patches at the time of the first esports tournament at PAX. Many people quit over this period and the game never recovered.

Now they don’t balance at all. Can’t upset those esports tournaments with the 20 people who actually try in it.

Money goes towards it to, they spend ages doing stupid events and prize money. What for? A dead game?

It literally makes no sense. This is a game killed by esports

Are you talking about the line saying the match up is unfair and you and your team just answer by insulting and trolling?

Sorry to bother you in your farm.
