EA Staff (Retired)@EA_Ataashi Just a little feedback on matchmaking.
I know @DarthFDG said matchmaking was turned off yesterday, but prior to that I found the games much more competitive most of the time which is a plus. What did happen though, was that the maps were repetitive. When I joined a game, once that round/map was finished, the notification at the bottom of the screen SEARCHING FOR GALACTIC ASSAULT may come up. Once it found a game in any era and finished the rounds in that era, the matchmaking would again search and many times you would end up playing the map prior to your last. For example, if I started playing on Kashyyyk, finished and then went to Kamino, finished both rounds there, the matchmaking could have me back on Kashyyyk again. Map rotation seems to have gone out the window. I'm not sure whether it is trying to keep a player in the same era all the time. I hope I explained this well enough. The repetition of maps is annoying and as it stands I rarely get to play some maps.
Again matchmaking has been on is this permanent now, I hope not because it is still 💩
@EA_Ataashi - Matchmaking was turned on even though it is not working. Its not matching people with equal skills and is placing people in lobbies where the sit and wait - i.e. takes longer to get in matches than before. This is a step backwards.
Can you please get it turned off?
Thx
For those of you seeing the same thing (e.g. @Tinogiggedy) ...
I found out via other channels that EA is aware of the issue and working on it.
@EA_Ataashi - It's time.
Matchmaking needs to be turned off ASAP. It's not working and causing issues with gameplay. Players are not happy.
