I’m really curious as to how you guys are figuring out if the other team is a pre-made. We don’t tell you, and looking at the data there are very few party rosters compared to solo.
Is it just match quality being bad? Are you just recognizing player names?
When I see the EXACT same lineup twice in a row, I know they’re a team. And I just let them win asap, because my pug group has no chance. Thanks for the crappy matchmaking.
This, going against premades as solo q will just result in afking the entire match. There is no incentive to play when your just going to be farmed over and over. Same vs any amount of premade, i forsee a lot of afk players in the future due to solo q’s vs premades.
anyone here tried clearing their dns cache open command prompt and type ipconfig /flushdns and hit enter works for those having issues with downloading the patch they posted today also disabling the windows firewall and then re-enabling it after you get the updates
i havent done the flushdns and i dont use windows firewall, or any firewall for that matter.
also if you used that reddit fix i suggest removing that from that host file
honestly i shouldnt have to do kitten for a game i purchased to work properly.

I disagree. I would prefer to play against good players even if they are using VOIP. You can ALWAYS play better and make that “unviable” build work. Just got to have good awareness, positioning, and teammates.
they need a benchmark for new players to reach before they can queue ranked. this benchmark should have to be made on each new character made aswell. like certain # of games won or something along those lines.
Merging solo q and team q is better for us ALL – PvP population is not large
Courtyard/Deathmatch should simply be thrown out this game is not made for that type of play especially when the opposing team sits outside of your spawn farming you as you jump in one by one
You’re all typical mob mentality going nuts over the first few games you joined – wait till the fairweathers leave the shiny new toy and things will be fine
I play solo, i want to play against other solo players. I don’t want to be put against teams of 3+, it changes how the game is played and is not enjoyable for a solo player. Now you might argue the system isn’t designed for this to happen often, but the fact is it should NEVER happen. Solo Q was fun and fine, sometimes you would get a new player with an adjusting MMR in your games and lose, but generally it was still fair and everybody was solo.
If you have a team of 5 people, chances are they are organized. They cover each others builds and may be on TS together. Now this very organized build is facing 2 groups of 2 man teams and a solo player. Sure even if the 2 man groups are perfectly synchronized together, they don’t know whats going on with the other 3 people on their teams. The 5 man team has a huge advantage….
Not super experienced in TPVP so please correct me if this is wrong but this is how I see the problem at least….
We understand that perfectly, which is why the new system takes party size into consideration. How much it does this is configurable. It seems people want it to be stricter. I’m cool with making that change, I just don’t want jump the gun and knee jerk some values based on initial reactions that could be because by unknown expectations.
Well for starters a person queued alone should NEVER be placed against a 5 man premade.
honestly best option is to make solo Q separate again.
I never thought I’d say that I miss the old system, but wow. This new system was NOT ready for prime time. It is not fun.
Can you elaborate? We have plenty of things we can tweak to improve matchmaking now, so qualitative feedback is useful.

No it’s not wrong, it is exactly how it is. It is a move from their part aimed to make it easier for teams to find matches to play, but it is a huge mistake, since you will lose a huge amount of soloers.
Mark my words, if the system stays as it is now, expect a massve population drop in pvp, just in the mext 15-30 days. History does not lie … It happened in so many games…
Your wrong dude sorry. This was needed because they need to support duo/trio queue.
As for “getting farmed by premades”, just no. In duo/trio queue there is a chance to win (depends on team mates) easily vs all but the top 5/6 teams in the game. Its not that kittenly the very best teams will have such coordination that you can’t win.
They are trying to support all players with this system. The majority are people who probably play with 1/2 other people and finally we are getting supported. It had to happen and it did happen and its a great change which will boost population.
duo/trio really has no place in ranked pvp. 5v5 premade and solo Q should be the only two options, i can see duo’ing maybe…. in soloq aslong as its 1 duo per team.
Solo q should have stayed seperate from team q’s. Id say adding duo Qing to it may have been okay if only one duo would get in per team, per match. Solo Q just has a different style of play then team Q. When your placed against premades of 3+ its just frustrating and un-fun. You cant rely on enemy lack of coordination or out playing a uncoordinated team by yourself, your now forced to sit and lose to premades whenever your placed against them as a solo q player. I want a ranked solo Q back with the leader-boards how they were. You guys changed things that didn’t need changing and ruined the game for a lot of people.
When i try to queue i get the error 42:0:9001:4409:101 saying cant access login servers due to firewall. I never had the issue before today and my firewalls have been disabled for a long time.
Edit: This goes for every option, practice, non ranked and ranked
anytime i try to queue for any type of pvp game i get the error code 42:0:9001:4409:101 saying firewall issues or something. I never had a problem like this before todays patch, and my firewall has been disabled for a long time prior to this.
Edit: I am using Time Warner Cable in Ohio and im on the server Crystal Desert
i can agree that it should be more rewarding than it currently is, but only if they make match making better and more accurate. The amount of times i get new players, or players new to spvp in a ranked solo Q match is just unacceptable, its basically a 4v5. and dont get me started on actual 4v5’s
And with this type of change it would pull a lot more new players in, which is good but not good when they get in a higher rating match.
Aye, I’m still hoping for an update on this too. This isn’t something that’ll be forgotten by OCD folks like myself who’ll be bothered getting stuck with a weird leftover amount of unusable gems.
Alternative question/method: Can I ticket support when I have leftover gems, asking them to remove my leftovers? Can I also do this when I have, for example, 803 gems and I want it to be an even 800?
They actually fixed what the thread is about awhile ago. At the bottom of the currency exchange screen there is an option to enter a custom amount.
I dont want to miss out on some halloween items because of this mistake, im not over paying for gems i wont use. Hopefully fix is implemented before halloween ends.
yes thanks for turning miniatures that i valued and was proud of into common trash. Guess being a dedicated player from the start just gets me punished. What next re-releasing the first Halloween skins?
If i have Sunrise and Twilight both souldbound and i craft them into Eternity, will it be unbound from my account or still account / soulbound? Basically can i use the 2 souldbound to make Eternity then sell it?
Both of those are on, ill post a screenshot of my current graphic settings. And yes my drivers are up to date. Also i don’t believe the in-game graphic options are going to effect the trade post, only UI scale and things of that nature will do it. I’m guessing due to the resolution being rare that the bug may have just been over looked till now.
The text in the trade post with Fullscreen – 1920×1200 resolution is very choppy and barely readable. I have only noticed it in the trade post, everything else seems fine. My Interface size is set to Small. I have included a screenshot showing the trade post along side my inventory. The numbers in the trade post is barely legible, but the inventory is fine. You can see it better if you zoom in on the picture.
I got my Sunrise around 2 weeks ago and i’m extremely happy with it. The one thing i think is missing, they should be account bound. After putting that much time and effort into the weapon it only seems right that i get to use it on what ever character i’m playing. I feel like i’m stuck on my guardian just because i have the weapon. It really makes me not what to play other characters and as a result i’m becoming very very bored with the game.
Would using the skin from a legendary on another weapon to get the stats take away from the item being a legendary? Say i used Sunrise and a Pearl crafted greatsword, would it still be Sunrise but with different stats?
Edit: Also would like to know if doing so would still allow me to use it to create Eternity.
I understand the change to the skills themselves, but why would you put the lowest cooldown ability on the most awkward key (2 key). If your going to change things like this at least give us the option of arranging the weapon abilities in the order we want.
