@fartnitepalyer I don't think you're following what I'm saying. Yes you will get people of any rank. It is based on mmr, not current rank. So yes you will get people that are bad. Maybe both of you lost multiple games in a row.

To me this is the real problem. People of the same rank should be together but are not. The claim is because there aren't enough in the queue. 130 isn't that many when you really think about it.

Do you ask people what their current mmr is because if not you cannot really know.

@fartnitepalyer

none of us here are saying that the Arena's system is not broken. Yes it needs to be fixed the MM and the AP points for winning and losing needs to be fixed and more transparent. I am pretty sure we all agree about that.

As far as the weapon pricing etc goes I think that is balanced pretty good. If you go out and get your mats and the win, I have found that I can easilly get an up graded Flatline, a Battery and two Arc stars or three grenades so no problems there.

Also to quote you "are you * dense? are you following what I just said"? "It is NOT based on * mmr, shut the hell up if you have no clue".

There is no reason to be nasty here to other people that is just bad manners.

@hayhor we all know that the matchmaking premise of quicker load times for games versus more fair MM is an issue. I would not want to wait 10+ mins for a fair Arena's game however I do not like getting totally unbalanced games do to speeding up the process either. EA really needs to work on that. to counter the effects of this I try to play Arenas during peak times when others are playing so that the MM has a larger pool and the MM is more balanced and the games are more evenly matched and more fun. Either way the BR format is better.
