Unfair matchmaking
I just started the game a couple of days ago. Yesterday (2019.04.09.) something happened with the matching, and the teams were balanced. It was so much fun to play. We played 4-5 matches, and it star...
There is no match making. You're in the game with 59 other players and It's completely random.
Uh oh... i've seen this happen before, in Hunt: Showdown specifically. People with like 50 hours getting farmed by people with 500 constantly, reeeeeeeeally hit that game hard until ~3 moths later they had to add mmr.
Yeah, it's one of the reasons i stopped playing it, that and camping was a major issue. It was so bad that people didn't even bother killing the bosses, or did one and left, i Solo'ed, took the Spider and left.
But i timed the games and the camping really hurt the gameplay, as players just skipped the best parts because camping was rampant in many games.
It looks like it yes. But the other day, it looked very different. We almost won against the same around 10-20 lvl guys. I guess its so hard to make a matchmaking system right? No game has ever had a system like that ages ago. Right.

It was a coincidence and yes in a BR implementing an MMR/ELO would be difficult, because most MM systems in other games are determined by win rate. You win a game your ELO goes up, you lose a game your ELO goes down. So players like me would end up with an ELO of 0 most of the time 😃
There are systems that take more stats like accuracy, KDR etc into account, but they take a very long time to implement.
Even games with an MMR system are rarely on point because the top 1% ranked players don't have many players to go up against, so after a certain time limit the match maker just throws them into a lower skill bracket.
Still those with 1000kills are not going to be in ranks 1-50. Experience,
So newbies can have a chance.
