Are the developers ever going to address the TW issue!!

Some guilds intentionally sandbag, but sometimes guilds just don't have as much participation as they would like.   I can't see anything changing until more brackets come into play. 

Still, your guild matchup looks like one of the worst mismatches that I have seen.  

It has been years since they've done anything with TW and from all appearances they just don't care.  In your situation just make sure all of your guild puts enough banners on defense to get rewards and accept your fate.  Have someone in your guild hit the Report Guild button,  choose the Matchmaking option and give CG an earful.  

Report the opposing guild because they don’t like the way the matchmaking works? Sounds like a waste of everyone’s time to me. 

No, TW and GAC are -2 on their priority list.  The only exception to that is Datacrons which they're looking to supercharge revenue from with this rubbish every session of conquest gets a new set of something for us to rent.  Their auto-pilot assembly line is being pushed into Turbo Overdrive.

The way things are going, never. Your frustration is their goal. You don't like being the smaller guild and losing? Then spend more money!

I was beginning to think you’d been hacked, given how long since you complained about DCs in an unrelated post!

Good to have you back! 

Please explain your reasoning here.  A guild with just say 60mil GP fights your guild with 50mil GP.  If all players participated, you may be disadvantaged based on rosters and depth.  But if only 25 of those players sign up, and only 25 of your players sign up, and they are pretty evenly matched based on sign ups, then what's the problem?  I have yet to see my guild of 50 actually fight another guild with 50 in a TW.  14 of our players have been afk since Nov 10.  So the game scales to our participation.

During these TW's I am seeing walls of GL Rey, Kenobi, JMLS, Jabba, R7 Geos, Exec, Profundity, Levi, GG and Conquest teams.  They attack us, we attack them.  The teams are pretty evenly matched on Def and Off. 

The reality is, there are very few in tact guilds left in the game to do full on 50v50.  Guilds keep the high end non-participants so they can still get into ROTE until they can recruit active players.    

I’m glad at least one person still sees what a scam Datacons are.

The problem stems from the roster composition - and the example you gave doesn’t really deal with the severity of the disparity at the top end of the guild GP ladder.

You seem to be basing your understanding of the TW Matchmaking issue on much smaller guilds who already have inactive players, hence don’t sign up with 50/50 because they can’t. But up in the 550M+ range pretty much no guilds have inactive players. They’re signing up with fewer than 50 every TW even though the players who don’t sign up are active players. 

If 40 members of a 700m GP guild are matched with 50 members of a 560m guild  (so sign up GP is more or less the same), the TW will be a total landslide in the larger guild’s favour because there’s a huge difference between a 14M GP roster and a 11M GP roster.

A 14M roster will have all the GLs, all 3 of the GL Capital Ships and likely all the other important Journey / Conquest units. A 11m roster will have at least 2 GLs missing (probably more) and at least 1 of the GL Capital Ships missing (probably more). Yes the smaller guild has 50 players, but they won’t have the teams in their arsenal to compete with the larger guild. 

I think the biggest issue with TW Matchmaking is actually the consideration of recent results, which occasionally gives a guild who have lost a few in a row an easier matchup. I’ve seen my TW casual guild (690M) have 48 sign up but get matched with a 42 sign up 530M guild. We don’t care about TW, but it was impossible for us to lose that. 

These are the options you have in the report.  I can't see how Matchmaking is a problem of the opposing guild, but it is a problem made by CG.  They are saying that if you don't like the Matchmaking this is a way to report it.  I have no idea whether anyone pays any attention to reports sent in, but if enough people send in reports, maybe one day they will act on it. 

DCs are very relational to this topic since they are the only part of TW and GAC they are willing to expend energy on.  And, they're also relevant due to the increase in DCs they're spewing at us which is an increased priority for them over so many other systems.

And I'm like a bad penny, I always turn up.  (I've reduced my level of give a rip to the point I barely post anymore because CG has prioritized sucking the joy out of the game to an equivalent level with P2W as a requirement.)
