The Matchmaking Balance Thread
All the newer threads about the matchmaking have been merged here, so why not make this a Matchmaking Balance Thread? I love it when new players join the game, but being placed against a team of exp...

@FearfulWarpIISeems like the game still gets a lot of new players and that's a good thing.
Well, unlike you want more balance in a HvH match.
I mean I'm recently even playing with some of the weaker heroes or those I usually don't play at all and we often still win by a clear ticket difference due to many opponents whose heroes are at lvl 10 or something.
The challenge here is to stay disciplined and keep playing that hero even when some of the newer hero players turn out to only have a low hero lvl but actually have a decent aim.
I am happy with all the new players coming in and saving the game from what would be a slow death, yes, but all I want for Christmas Life Day... is balance.
To be honest, I’m numb to this matchmaking at this point
- @FearfulWarpII this... without the new players we'd be struggling in all modes the way you have struggled in HVV Starfighters from day one 🙂
Also, FWIW I'm dreadful at HVV (despite watching YT vids on how to play) so if you see me on your team, I'll be high level but a rubbish player. I don't play HVV because of elitist players complaining and using pejorative terms such as 'potato' or 'plague'.
Jheez...
I understand the frustration though. I just wish it was for the dreadful matchmaking, not the actual player. I wonder if they're trying to pair up new players with more experienced ones so they see examples of how to play each mode.To be stomped or do the stomping there is no balance

Alright, I’ll admit. That day I was really steamed that day trying to get my Star Wars multiplayer fix... and that was the straw that broke the camel’s back. I’m sorry you had to hear that... Shoulda just went to co-op, way more fun 😂
I play games to have fun, not to rage. At this point I’m having much more fun on fallen order and planning to get back to 2015front while playing co-op on 17.
Honestly, 17 is a great game that has its fair share of flaws, and the unbalanced matchmaking is one of them.- @FearfulWarpII Hey thanks for the reply ! 🙂
I completely agree, the MM is horrible in this game and like you I adore it (still play every day). I have to admit there are times I scream ‘what are you doooooooing?!? Play the objective!!!’ when I come across some players costing us the match as they go off on killstreaks.
