Re: Unfair Matchmaking in Ultimate Team Division Rivals

Yeah I'm having the same, the first season wasn't to bad the matchmaking was quite equal but this season has been a joke, maybe 1 /10 games I are playable, I think most of the players at our skill level have stopped playing already because the game is a shambles and it's just getting worse.

I was waiting for the new season to start but tbh I think I've had enough and don't think I'll make Christmas for the second year in a row.

The franchise is dead. Imo EA don't care about the game or the community just rake in the profits and stick 2 fingers up. I won't be buying 26 unless they overhaul it completely

@RadioShaqs what's the point of divisions if they don't fix you're games to the division you're in. It's like a top PL team playing a DIV 3 team, its just pointless .

Like the rest of the game they're trying to force out the casual players out or trying to make us buy packs.

I lost about 100 games this week. Its unbelievable. I don't care anymore. Will not buy the game anymore in the future. They do not care about casual players like me.

I'm not sure you're a casual player if you've played (and lost) at least 100 games in a week. All boils down to definitions though, which is a thread I started a while back :-)

@Baldbag It’s probably down to population. If you get matched within a few seconds or have to wait. The longer you wait the wider it will search. It also stops people from rovering too. You are also playing people who are rovering and not really in a higher division.

Task 1 when setting up any kind of online game at all where people match together is to ensure a decent balance of opponents on as frequent a basis as possible.
EA have never managed this, nowhere near. That they offer rewards for finishing games just encourages AFK. I certainly don't feel obliged to complete a full game when 3 down early on to a vastly superior opponent.
This is the No1 fault in this game.
