Very unbalance team match making.

I  was  wondering  if  any  other  players have  experienced  being  placed  on  a  team  in  either    Tournament  Battle  or  Clash  Point  Control  that  was  very  weak  compared  to  the  opposing  team?  There  have  been  many  times  in  a  row  that  that  has  happened  to  me.  I  don't mind  losing  every  once  in  awhile  when  the  teams  are  closer  matched,  but  when  they  are  so  uneven  at  least  80%  of  the  time,  it's really  unfair.  It's also  hard  to  move  up  in  the  Division &/or  Tournament.  

This  problem  needs  to  be  fixed  by  the  developers  so  that  we  ALL  can  have  fun.

The matchmaking is rigged for pay to win that's why it's so bad

I spend and still not winning any matches lately. The funny thing is I think Devs are playing with my connection. I had a great connection to the games server now I don't. Game has slowness and lag like no other. Recently found out they banned me on the forums here cause they can not take critism.

I  have  been  on  a  lot  of  teams  where  we  lost  the  battle,  but  there  was  no  one  on  any  of  those  teams  that  looked  like  they  spent  much.  Resently  I  was  on  2  teams  where  we  won  the  battles  very  convincingly,  &  there  was  1   player  on  each  of  the  winning  teams  with  very  high  squad  power  &  it  looked  like  he  spent  big  time  money .  So,  I  don know.  You  don't spend  100's  of  $$$  &  you  end  up  on  a  weak  team,  or  you  DO  spend  100's  of  $$$  &  you  end  up  helping  a  weak  team  to  win.  It's crazy!

I want a way to report teammates either that or kill them.  Some teammates are the worst. Being doubled and triple teamed as teammates sit there doing nothing is maddening. The other thing is they either stand right behind you so you cannot back up or they push you into oncoming fire. I have written so many message to support that I have come to the conclusion they do not care.

Hey, Pilot! We’re currently working on changes to the matchmaking system to ensure a smoother experience for all players and hope you’ll see an improvement in short order. For now, you can work around tougher matches by teaming up with your friends - it’s always easier to take opposition apart when you’re grouped with other skilled Pilots. 

Also, I've forwarded your feedback to the game team 😉

Hello! We only ban in case of any Forum Rules and Guidelines violations. Make sure you follow them and you're safe, Pilot 😉

Speaking of the connection issues you've been recently having, let’s eliminate hardware troubles and close all launched Apps. Try switching your Wi-Fi connection off and on again after a few minutes. Then try changing graphic settings to “Low” and see if that helps.

If none of that works, please email us at arena.support@plarium.com.

They are constantly tweaking the matchmaking but there is always going to be a bias towards players that spend getting the better matchmaking.   There are enough indicators in the game that should help eliminate those massive power differences we all still see.  Sometimes I am on the losing side of that power balance and sometimes on the winning side.   

Just had a tournament game where there was a bunch of players 800 Squad Power lower than me and in division 3 and 4 ( my division is 1 ).   That just shouldn't be happening and all that does is piss those lower players off.   I have also posted over a dozen match screenshots where I was in matches where I was out powered by 2 to 1 on squad power.  So I know how frustrating it is.  


You have to reward the whales though because they pay the bills so don't ever expect a matchmaking algorithm that puts everyone on an even playing field.   


The one thing which does help is - playing solo?  Go play 2v2 becuase you have a better chance of carrying a match.  If you play CPC or 5v5 get a team of at least 3 players together that understand how to focus fire and that you need to hold 3 of the 5 capture points.

I  have  written  to  Support  about  the  unbalanced  team  matching  when  a  player  goes  in  alone  &  ends  up  on  a  weak  team  consistently  to  battle  against  a  very  strong  team.  They  assured  me  that  they  are  working  on  an  update  to  make  it  more  even.  That  is  great  considering this  is  a  game  of  competition  &  that  should  be  the  #1  priority.  

It's  a  different  case  when  a  player  can  build  a  team  using  his/her  Friends  List.  At  least  you  know  who  is  on  your  team  &  what  their  abilities are.  As  far  as  how  good  the  opposing  team  is,  we'll,  you  will  find  out  in  battle.  At  least  you  will  have  a  better  chance  of  winning.

1600 vs 1400 doesn't seem very uneven to be honest.  Like if it was 1000 SP difference sure but 200 SP actually seems like matchmaking is working correctly.

200 pts?  That is completely fair and nothing to complain about.   Look around at some of the posts made about matchmaking where there is a 1000-2000 pt difference.   Enjoy that 200pt difference because that is a fair match.

How about you have this guy in your team vs opponent with average 1600? Don't bullshit me with win rates or experience, because mine is 50k and same goes to my opponents'

Another day another match against p2w whale, nothing super big to brag about. So dear Rescue, is the trash matchmaking done tweaking yet? Or still "working on it"?

The matchmaking test was finished on 11/24/2021.  The system was reverted back to that prior to the test.
Currently, the the data on win-loss rates and player deviation is being analyzed so adjustments can be made.
I wouldn't expect to see any major changes in matchmaking until the next major update or the following one.

Bravo, so we are gonna deal with Pay 2 Win even in tournament matches in the future, so that's what we call "fair matchmaking" huh?

Btw this guy is obviously a whale account (yes my opponent team, again) because his win rate is 1100/1400

I do remember you mentioned 1400 vs 1600 is nothing but how about 1600 vs 2773? Is this a fair matchmaking or just rigged or freaking Pay to Win?

And the percentage about p2w is just ridiculously high that you guys choose to ignore it and what we get is "we're working on it" or "we heard you", nothing new but nonsense.

Bravo, super well done 👏👏👏👏👏

So until today I still matched with whales who are such big spenders with squad power 1000 more than mine, so what those "mastermind" behind this game done to "work on it"?
