Amazing exclusive rewards? 1 piece of a totally crap looking armor?

roflmao, i hope you’re just joking…

already have lama on other account…and is not that cool either

jack a lop> lama anyday

meanwhile #1 guy with 53% win ratio…if i was him i would go hide into a hole in shame 3 ppl in top 5 with not even a miserable 60% win ratio, and in top 100 still really a few with more than 70….nough said bout those leaderboards

Like someone else pointed out, you are aware that in like every online game a win ratio of 60% seems to quite above average.

Like top player sort of range.

So please, don’t speak so lightly of a 60% win rate, only in Gw2 can a w/l that high be considered low by some people.

And I’m not going to bother pointing out why peoples win rates in this game is so horribly inflated, because surely you know too.

Just lol.

It’s hard to leak balance changes when balancing doesn’t occur.

Think about it.

Then the the screenie when on the winning side gets ignored. Ofcourse.

It’s hard to dodge when you alt tab.

I’ll quote myself.

This time, we outplayed them. Trust me.

Oh, celestial amulet. Never mind.

Soloq was kinda bad with this sort of thing.

But this new system is an absolute joke.

Blow outs, blow outs everywhere.

Teams being stacked with premades against soloers. So on and so forth.

What a giant mess.

And the sad thing is they will never, EVER admit they screwed up royally.

They will just continue to ignore their own failures whilst endlessly tweaking a system that’s just flat out broken and will never be fixed with band aids being slapped over it over and over.

In all your threads, all your posts I only see complaints. Can you try to be constructive, for once?

You have to be careful using blow-out as an argument. Blow-outs will always happen, even if you have the perfect matchup according to the MMR/system.
Don’t you get blow-outs in other established pvp games with matchmaking? I sure do.

I’ve never, ever played a game with online multilayer that suffers from matchmaking mistakes such as this. Really, I’ve never experienced chronic problems with online gaming like this. To me Gw2 is like this weird isolated mess of a case with it.

And be constructive? Don’t make me laugh. People have said time and time again what needs to be done.

2 times now, I’ve left ranked que, joined an unranked, a min or two later get a que pop.

Then I find out that I’m currently being farmed by a 3man premade when I qued solo in a ranked game.

So, first of all you remove soloq completely making the soloq experience an absolute joke, then the matchmaking its self is also an absolute joke (Queing as a duo and facing a 5man premade, anyone?)

If you’re incapable of managing the above 2, can you AT LEAST MAKE SURE THAT IT’S FRIGGING BUG FREE.

At first I hated this new pvp experience, then it grew on me when 4v5 became alot rarer. But now I’m honestly on the verge of stopping “ranked” all together. I’m completely baffled why you even bother having a ranked system in place anymore. It’s 100% meaningless when premade groups go around farming solo/duo players to 70%+ win rates and top leaderboard rankings.

It’s sad to see, it really is how you’ve managed to further break an already broken system.

I’m like 100% sure it was ranked.

We either won more than I can remember or they stop updating for me.

I’m confused >_<

Had a huge amount of losses last night from queing with a irl friend with no mmr and who is really out of practice , I log on today to see 22 wins, 16 losses.

I’m pretty sure the leaderboard stopped working again because that win rate seems really wrong. Unless I was so drunk I didn’t notice the games we won or something.

Anyway, is the LB dead again?

Being farmed by another premade that seems to be at least a 4man.

Why did you combine the ques when you can’t even fix your own matchmaking system?

Now was against a trio que from the same guild, whilst my team backpeddles around on point getting slapped.

I just don’t even…

Qued duo, put against a 5man premade.

500-0.

Thanks, for this clearly enjoyable and highly competitive match, Anet.

And this is not the first blowout of the night with quick ques.

This is boring, it really, really is.

Qued a a duo, was paired with another duo, and a solo quer. So my team split was 2-2-1.

Look what the matchmaking gave us after like 10 seconds in que.

This is going to be an even match no doubt! – Matchmaking 2014

Every single time I que solo, get premade farmed on Courtyard.

Just qued solo for like the first time in last 20 games or something idk.

Instant que pop on CY, everyone on my team was soloq.

Everyone on their team was in a party, and seeming you don’t seem to be able to que ranked in a party, as it requests they join or boots you from que, they was at least a duo q with a trio q.

I was being 500-0 stomped, whilst yelling in Skype WHY DID I QUE SOLO, WHY DID I kittenG QUE SOLO!

I feel as if I am literally being forced into queing with people just to stop this stupid nonsense from happening.

I’d rather farm, than be farmed.

Fix it already, this is a joke.

If you’ve seen my threads where I spammed screenshots of all the horrific landslide matches I’ve played in since patch, you might know that I was really sour when this patch hit.

But now that the ranked ques are seemingly instant basically all day, with normally, a nice distribution of classes amongst teams, I’m starting to see the light at the end of the tunnel.

I guess I’m only posting this to say I’m a rager, I complain, I moan, but I do it with love. I’ll give credit where it’s due.

Oh and duo queing with someone decent, even with out voice comm HELPS A TON to enjoy ranked.

Axe main hand is pretty poor, the AA can be ok for cleave I guess, that’s about it. But even then it’s nothing great.

Evis is just far too easy to dodge, you’re 99% of the time punished for using it as you will miss and lose all your adrl as long as you aren’t playing against people who are blind.

Every single stupid match on this map is 500-0 it’s just flat out horrible.

7th match played.

Oh and I’m on the verge of just afking every single time Courtyard already.

6th match played.

Now this one was weird, it was 4v5, lol. So not sure what to make of this game.

Then don’t read this one thread out of the whole entire forum section?

Who made you click on this one thread?

5th match played.

4th match of the day, 3rd loss out of 4 games.

The other 4 on my team 4 man capped home. GG WP

3rd match of the day.

Wow! It’s even better again! Will I actually get a GOOD game today! We shall see! : O

2nd match of the day.

By the power of matchmaking, you will lose!

But really, I had an absolute blast watching my team get instantly wiped at the start of the game.

Was pretty fun.

Oh was ranked aswell, almost instant que pop.

Another Courtyard blowout. ;’ D

I’d rather have the odd 4v5

Than endure endless 500-50 blow outs.

And no, I will spam this forum every blow out until anything done to resolve it is in place.

Next game, 3 eles on enemy team, all soloq.

Where is this class distribution? : /

Skyhammer, my team was a 4 man premade against a full pug.

End score: 500-93.

Thanks for participating in this fun game.

And the sad thing is

That match, was one of the ‘closest’ games I’ve actually played.

Mjgander.1905:

First 30 seconds of the match, team gets wiped and triple capped. current score 100-5. GG

EDIT: Oh nevermind, it was another premade against a pug team.

One person on my team claims this is their 4th match as a solo player against a pug.

First 30 seconds of the match, team gets wiped and triple capped. current score 100-5. GG

Now I’m against a full team premade, 5 people in the same guild.

My team, isn’t.

GG WP

Yes, I do also think it’s unreasonable.

Bad matches, yes. Naturally, they will exist in any system that can be created. But when every single match is just a horrible landslide, game after game it gets old.

And did they internally test this? They put the merged both ranked ques and thought screw it and hope for the best?

This shouldn’t be happening, not this bad at all. Unless they some how messed up the matchmaking, the way it’s calculated, which from the looks of it they have and badly.

6th loss, once again, a coutyard utter blow out

You want constructive feedback?

Oh ok.

Well let me see, how about not putting solo q players against full or semi premades after 5 seconds in que, that’s a good start is it not?

Or, or how about actually spreading out players based on class? You know, 2 rangers 2 warriors against 2 eles and 2 guardians, that sort of rubbish is still happening frequently.

That would be a nice start

Hell, I’d take a 4v5 every couple of matches over this nonsense any day.

No, I will continue to post about every stupid blow out I have the utmost joy in playing, you know, the very thing this match making was meant to prevent.

Oh and 5th loss in a row now I think, another Courtyard blow out.

Don’t look at me, I wasn’t the necros getting wiped by engineers.

Had another loss now, 3 necros against double engi.

One engi had the rune that turns you into mist when at low hp.

Just, how laughable.

3rd loss in a row, another miserable blow out. :’ )

Now in a 4v5, welp.

Jk, become 3v5.

Playing ranked.

Oh the screenshot, this is is apparently the new ranked, most of my games have been something like this, utter horrible blow outs.

This isn’t fun, at all.

That coupled with both teams being pugs, but class stacking per side still happening.

I’ve had several matches where both teams have 2 of a class, even though we are all pugs.

Yeh sorry for the complaining spam, but I really am mind blown that most matches are complete and utter blow outs, or having teams being mainly premade and being put against complete pugs is just worrying me.

6th game, won 500-62, spawn camping them on Spirit Watch.
