WOC Matchmaking

You have single-handedly killed your (and our) WOC games. I’ve posted about this already and so have others. Good teams don’t have fun playing us, we don’t have fun playing them. My club doesn’t even want to play anymore because of the matchmaking. Please fix that.

    We gave up a few weeks ago. Full 6 man squad, waiting 20-30 minutes, then we'd match up with a 6v2 or 6v3 and back out..rinse and repeat. Never had this issue in any NHL game before. We could just select our preferred room size, usually 6v6 or 6v5 , location, and search and it worked fine in years past . My sqaud gave up on this game with our trial, better then spending actually money on the product. Incredibly disappointing year for WOC players

      It has been disappointing, yes. Sorry you guys have experienced that too.

    This is crazy. We are normally a 56-58% team. This year we either play terrible teams or amazing teams. We are 73%. Something is broken. Most games end up before the 2nd period.

     

    Please do something.

     

     

  • I still don't understand how the development team came up with the idea of messing up the matchmaking like this.
    It was perfect as it was. nobody complained, nobody asked for a change.

      But hey, at least we got the battlepass, and fortnite style skins that precisely ZERO people asked for, right?

  • What region you in ?     It has been so much better for us.  In California.   6v6.      We play 2 players.     Ai so much smarter.  Games seem more evenly matched.   Still takes a couple minutes to find match.  We are Div 5.

      Central? We’re in MN. We’re silvers and we are down to div 9 now (we were always div 1 in 24) and we play against purples & fire/red elites. This happens to us in 3s a lot but also in 6s.

        That’s how it was for us before patch   Matching against video game players.  I wonder if it’s a server thing.  Because some days the game play is great and some days. Garbage like we had

      I have no idea how you say AI is so much smarter lol, they aren't.  Me and my club have already pretty much quit this game already.

  • We need to have a competitive mode for the best players for helping the matchmaking .

    Yes they do. There's a reason they're all scrub hunting right now.

      Idk man, I’ve read a handful of comments from good teams with good records saying they aren’t having fun because they’re winning every game they play and only play silvers. Winning 10-0 every single game probably isn’t gonna be that fun lol. Maybe for some, but not according to what I’ve been reading from them on here.

        The only reason they say they're not having fun is because they don't get a ton of RP for beating you.
