Frontline matchmaking now fixed. Big thanks to the devs.

Yep. So now everyone gets the experience the joy of getting grouped with timid players afraid to actually get in there and fight for a node and watch as everyone ignores call outs and scatters everywhere. XD

Strange I have seen way more fighting and more come from behind victories in the last week. Then I have seen since the BH changes. Teams are not afraid to pinch first place team to try to win. Before they would just see the one GC with their 6+ players all with battle high five and avoid them because they would just get steam rolled. I am not even sure what the combination is, but one ninja burst me so fast It felt like I got hit with an invisible limit break. I have had 10 losses this week and I was happy with all the games. I didn't leave any of them disgusted by the way the game went. One game the top 10 heals all had over 1 million healing and the top 4 were over 2 million. The games might have to much contesting and fighting for some nodes. As it allows the third team to pick up easy lower rank nodes.



I won't say some games won't be unbalanced. They have no system besides random for balance. I won't say the people on Maelstrom on Crystal were cheating either. They were clearly abusing the idea of equal pvp by trying to stack one team. The only miserable comments I have seen have been from Maelstrom players.

I was mostly making a joke. Had a great group yesterday, but then today had the exact situation I described. :P

It wasn't the one where maelstrom didn't even break 100 points was it? I felt bad for them. The other two teams were close in score. But not breaking a 100 is disheartening I have had a couple of those on Flames last month.

No, we didn't do THAT bad. But only hit like maybe 600 points. But it was Maelstrom. It's weird. Maelstrom used to dominate and now it seems like they keep getting the worst players.

I would be curious about other Data centers, I think their is a little backlash. I know I have a tendency to focus Maelstrom if the opportunity presents itself and looks like I am not the only one. Just like I get a little glee when I kill ninja. Not enough to jump up and down on their corpse.



I am really enjoying the fact third place can make come backs like they used to. I have also had the joy of not seeing any game where one team consistently wins by 1000 or more points. Even though that would be harder now that you only need 1600. I didn't magically start winning 50% of the games I play either. But I am a little worried the new found balance is because a certain group of players is in feast right now. So when they have their spots locked up if they come back the matches will start to get more one sided.

Had one of the best pvp matches yet earlier today.

As flames we had a really rough start and we had like 250:ish points towards adders 600 and maels 1k.

So obviously the naysayers in alliance chat start spouting how it was already over but we pulled our shit togheter, did some really nice pincer attacks and by the end Adder had snagged a S rank and was litteraly 1 tick away from winning when we scored the final kill to put us at 1600 and win the match.

Everyone was like "no way we won that!".

[Darker_Midnight]

Yeah... no. My 33% winrate went down to 20% or less, because I'm playing a damn roulette and keep landing on 'Losers' now. I've even taken up the commander mantle if nobody does, with some limited success but... yeah, no. On some datacenters it's just bad. I'm sad.

So i was sitting in long queue while you write Frontline queue is very short, i do something wrong? :/

Que was not fixed, matchmaking was fixed. Ques are shorter but I have yet to see a pop during certain times of the day due to 72 player requirement.
