Guild Wars 2

Then this happened..

So rude, Happy Kid.

but … 0 points !!!
what happened?

i.e.
1 went home, got killed by their far point assault before capping home? O_O
4 went mid, got killed by 3 mid fighters? O_O
then they split up and camped both entrances? O_O

i mean what happened during the 4 minutes? O_O

This game’s matchmaking is kittened. I was (at about 200 on LB at the time) queueing with some friends of mine (at all roughly 80%-90%), voipless, for a bit of fun and it matched it up against Good Fights. The result of that match was soemthing like 100-500.

After that we matched against them THREE MORE TIMES. You would have thought the matchmaking system would have figured it out at the first. The best part is I know for a fact other teams our level were queueing at the time.

Don’t get me started on solo queue. I’m top 100, why am I getting people that are simply inexperienced/new? Why am I winning games that I shouldn’t win because some new guy on the other team is walking past uncapped points or focusing the wrong player entirely? It’s like herding sheep.

Look at the bright side, the bar for improvement is set quite low.

They played 3 points off the bat, sending 1 or 2 to far, 1 home, rest mid. They won all fights and triple capped, then they watched spawns and counted how many went to each point. They rotate the same number to wherever you try to go and win each of those fights for the rest of the match.

Happy Kid with the mad BM, as usual. :P

wow! truly incredible! thanks for explaining it to me how it happened aye.

and their ranks! mostly 50 – 60 + !!! O_O

this is team arena? O_O

sweats

It’s team arena. Those guys farm random teams like that every day to boost their ego and leaderboard rating. Nothing new here. You should just wait until they get a match and then enter.

This happens allot in Team Que, there are limited amount of Top Team’s in Que and what do you think happens when there is only 1 left in Que, your just unlucky team that had to face them.

What I would do is take what you learn’t from that battle and improve from it.

You need more cheese, so you can call pll bad too ^^

Gw2 spvp “pro” players left are 90% pure kitten. I remember at the begining, when with my team we lost against really good teams by a huge margin and they still apologized for the bad matchmaking and tell us that we didn’t play bad.
Now is just dudes with ego issues trying to forget their live problems by inflating their ego, and of course, getting angry and mad everytime they lose.

Wow, that’s brutal! Good learning experience though. =)

Had that happen to my team before… winning streak then face a high level team…. but we beat them… sometimes that just happens… I’ll post a vid when I’m not at work

Well they are rank 50+ and your lowest is rank 21.

HAHAHAHA NOOBS!!! jk. that sucks but i can’t stop looking at this pic. to funny.

Welcome to GW2.

No seriously this happens to teams simply because no one was qu’ing at that time. Why do you think so many people quit? It gets boring to fight same teams over and over. At least GF didn’t have fun during that match… or if they did shame on them.

Happy kid way to be a kitten.

Wish they could combine EU and NA servers. I know that would causes issues but pvp needs the population

I was a little tipsy but sounds about right. Our backpoint lost to wakky so I tried to rotate home I think and Toker focused me like he always does. I think around the 200 or 250 point we stopped really playing and let them have boss.

Lot of fun when the top 20 players in tpvp get matched up against your ragtag pug group :|

not to blame matchmaking

blame the lack of players.

kito.1827:

not to blame matchmaking

blame the lack of players.

a reason why lack of playerz is this broken matchmaking

TeamQ is the worsed thing in this game where full Teams/premades farm Randoms

And than wonder why players stop playing this game

it shoud be 5 man teams only

kito.1827:

Pretty much this. People complaining about premades in team arena is interesting. That’s the whole point of team arena. Which is why I don’t bother with team arena too much because I don’t have a team.

The match making is just pairing them up with the closest rated team. The reason why the gap is so big is because the lack of players. If you made the match making even more strict. GF would probably sit in a que for hours until they got a game.

Yeah, the matchmaking is actually fine. After about 10 minutes or so, the matchmaking will give up trying to find an even match and just find whatever matchup it can, that’s why you will occasionally go up against these kinds of players. If there were more teams around, this would happen a lot less often.

ye for this team its fine but not the people who have to go in and be canonfodder its wasted 15mins

and best is the low team dont have to wait 10 min to get this bad match

this week i joined solo in teamQ at primetime EU and was 85% or something and got matched INSTANT with xl super xl and his fanclub – match was lost 30/500 and i cant understand how arenanet can be so rude and say “we dont have palyers for this guys so you have to be the idiot now and go in and get farmed and waste 15 min of your live”

seriously this is simply broken – when they cant find teams for this guys than ye happens but its not my problem

I just mean that the matchmaking algorithm is working as intended. Normally, it does make correct matchups and finds teams that are roughly equal in rating. It’s just when the queue timer starts getting high that it will broaden the search and cause these mismatches. Once ladders come out, it will probably bracket off the high ELO from the low and middle ELO levels so that matchups like this don’t happen anymore, or at least become a lot more rare.

Romek.4201:

this week i joined solo in teamQ…

Go solo into team queue and that’s the chance you take.

I do it sometimes, and I just accept that at least 1/3 of the time I’m going to get nuked, no matter what my team does.

what has this to do with thema?

even when i go in solo i get matched with ppl on my ranking or atleast i should

Sorry for the matchups like this, believe me when I say its not fun even the slightest bit. We just waited in queue for a while and after so long like ken said it just puts us against somebody.

Why don’t you split your team and play against each other? It’s interesting how top 25 on the ladderboard never play against each other. No competition at all. How can you ever have fun games if you don’t even try having them?

But, that’s not even true. I see at least 4 different teams represented in the top 25, and I haven’t played with about 12 of those people in the past month. On the other hand, I’ve played against most of those people at some point in the same time period. If you don’t think we play against each other, watch some streams sometime.

The sad part of it is, the longer anet takes to balance their game… the more it will bleed accounts.

And these players that invest countless hours playing spvp will be playing the same people time and time again in a year.

Ya the population is what makes the matchmaking rough sometime, and that will always be the problem with any matchmaking system until the pop. grows.

As for the people who solo Q in team Q, idk what more I can say besides there is solo Q for a reason.

600 rank point reward different makes it pretty appealing.

Its nbd I knew it would be a tough game going in. Especially because I’ve played against you in solo q and have had a tough time with the sword #2 nerf. Would’ve helped if we didn’t pick up 2 people either.

Luman.2380:

Sure, and i would love to play only soloQ. But Arenanet think somehow this broken TeamQ need more than double the reward we get in soloQ and force us solo palyers to go teamQ when wanna rank up. I dont even need 50% win lose in teamQ to get much more than i would get in soloQ.

in soloQ i get with 50% win lose ratio in 10 games 2250 rankpoints – in teamQ i can fail for more than 70% games and still get more

i cant understand this

If I’m not mistaken, players who score 0 get no rank points and no glory for the entire match. If you’re really sorry about stuff like this happening, you could show it by letting them cap a point once you’re up by 400 or something.

I watched some “pro” (i find it hard to say pro when the viewership is 30 dudes and even with extreme advertising it will give 0.3 dollars or less) stream for an hour or so, roughly half of the matches were complete destroys were the “pro” team obliterated the other, the other half where against roughly same skill level teams, with queue times of minimum 10 minutes.

It’s probably a good idea in those obliterating times to not call the enemy team baddies or something like that, it’s not good to try to shrink even further the playerbase. But being honest, it doesn’t matter, whatever u do this game isn’t gonna to recover and you can give as many rewards as u want, but there is no way that will transform a pve casual player into a pvp player.
