Season Matchmaking Changed

Re: Season Matchmaking Changed

Adding a legendary would make me maybe on par with the rest of the field, and it has. I can handle losing to someone with similar stats, the complaint is about the trucks STILL in the game.

adding one legendary sure.. but you bought SIX! looks like you were trying for an easy win..... point is dont complain about teams being better than the rest of the field when you were going to do the same thing lol

Re: Season Matchmaking Changed

So this change is going to fix what happened in my last season? I was around 2200 in each stat and most of players in season were same level......except some how 3 players with over 4k each stat got in???? I faced one in second round and beat him 4-2 (but I added 2 legend drexlers from RC, I won a Monroe legend and got a pro epic in as well, so basically changed my starting 5 completely, but still only got me to around 3300 each stat). In semis faced guy who had all stats from 4200-4500 each.....lost in 4 games......this was my 4th season....won first but last three have had massive players mixed in and they killed everyone each time. I had decided this was my last season but if this change will level the field then I may continue with seasons as long as there's a actual chance to win.

Re: Season Matchmaking Changed

I don't even look what stats my opponents had when they beat me. You can't change it anyways.

Re: Season Matchmaking Changed

This sucks! Ever since the update I'm getting 4-5 trucks in my season Like my stats are 3500+ and the 4-5 are 5000+ I haven't made it past the first round since the update and rare's are USELESS to me now i may have only played two seasons since the update but if I don't make to at least the third round in my next season I don't think I will play anymore and don't get me wrong I love the update but the season matchmaking sucks and makes the update suck! Hope they do something the game is so cool but this is a huge turnoff!

You guys need to realize that this thread is months old and that the matchmaking has been reverted back since the time this post was made. You're complaining about a change that came and went already.

I hear you. The last time I played, I made it to the third round before getting steamrolled. I didn't even bother energizing because my opponent had about 1500+ advantage in every category. The sad part is that this is the furthest I've gotten since early March. Up until then, I had first or second round exits.

Show me ANYWHERE on these forums where it says the changes have been reverted back.
The original post is less than 2 months old.

If you were around when the change was originally made you would know that they were reverted back.

What they did was add a bunch of "bots" to help even things out by putting the best players with good bots instead of putting them with the lower ranked people. When they realized though that the best players had to play full seasons against almost all bots and they had major matchmaking wait times they changed it back and matchmaking went back to terrible again.

[QUOTE=NWGameDad;2046047358]I just wanted to let everyone know that we just turned on a Season Matchmaking change that should help improve the matching. It's not a final solution, but you should see improvements in the quality of matches in your Season games with this change. We are continuing to work on a better matching system for Season games.


You will see Season Matchmaking take 1 hour (sometimes less) now though. It should not take longer than 1 hour, if you do please let us know. Also, this will not guarantee a "truck" will appear in your Season, but it should make it better for the majority of players.

THIS ISSUE IS NOT FIXED AT ALL!!!! JUST FINISHED A SEASON WHERE 4 PLAYERS HAD A 1500 EACH STAT ADVANTAGE OVER EVERYONE ELSE......BUT IT GETS WORSE.....JUST STARTED A NEW SEASON AND FIRST GAME FINISHED AND I'M AT 3200-3300 EACH STAT MY FIRAT GAME THE GUY WAS AT 6800-7500 EACH STAT......???????? JUST A WASTE OF TIME....NO POINT IN DOING SEASONS THERE'S NO WAY TO GET A FAIR SHOT AT WINNING AND IT'S JUST NOT FAIR. NOT FIXED AT ALLLLLLLLLL

Same season, can someone please enlighten me?

Same season, can someone please enlighten me?

First team was not using their best players... likely use a common line-up hoping to get an easy queue and sub in their best player. Second team is just a truck... plain and simple once you pass the breaking point (believe to be ~2000 average), everyone gets into the same queue.

I tried queuing 2 teams @ the same time... one with sub 1000 rating per category (still better than the team you faced) and my regular team (4000). Both queue within 1 minute of each other, my main team got a season much faster (~1 hour faster, basically 20 minutes vs ~80 minutes) than my weak team and they were different seasons. My 4000 rating team got into a season with 2 trucks and was 5th or 6th best team (ended up beating 1 truck because he didn't energize but lost to the other one in the final). My weak team lost 3 games in the regular season (2 while sleeping and the 2nd game of the year when none of my players were even trained) and 16-0 in the playoffs, all team had average sub 1000 in his season (fair season at least at the start, i had over 1k across the board after 3 subs at the end of the year) and i got a Tim Duncan Legnedary for his season (first win in over a month... basically since my first 3 seasons with my main team).

Second season test... my weak team currently hasn't faced any team > 1500 rating... my primary team has a 7000+ truck in it. Wasn't same queue time this time (despite both teams getting to the final, my primary team playoff was only 17 games, basically only 1 series in the first round that went 5, everything else went 4-0).
