Fix the matchmaking in WoC
Hi, feels nice to pay 60% more for a game that is actually broken. Our team has played the whole week and everyday its hours sitting in the dressing room as we are connected to North America opponents while we are based in Europe. Matchmaking fix needs to happen fast. Just bring back the same options as you did have in the 24.. Please react fast as ppl are really getting angry inside the community because you cannot play decent games in EASHL/WoC. Also add the match my room size in there. Thanks bye.
EASHL Matchmaking
I can speak for all EASHL players when I say the latest 'patch' did nothing to fix matchmaking. Can someone from EA please explain why there is no match room size, or server location and why the hell was it taken out? We have been unable to find matches, and if we do it's against Europe team with 180+ ping, or teams with 4/6 while we have 6/6. Please fix ASAP.Features Missing / Bugs
Please fix this EA, I know the game has only just come out but it shouldn’t have launched like this… 1 - Exact Region / Group Size missing on Chel… This is a huge problem and if it’s not a bug needs to be added back asap! 2 - Intermission / Inbetween Play Overlays such as the Grudge Match and Highlights stay on screen for too long resulting in missing the face off / start of a play, this is happening for my friend too but doesn’t happen to us all the time… 3 - Turning vibration off in controller settings does not disable vibration (PS5) 4 - Turning off controller audio then quitting the game / restarting PS5 turns controller audio back on 5 - There was an issue where I couldn't leave the loadout select menu in the EASHL 3v3 lobby 6 - Missing NHL / AHL colour options in custom branding when customising the brand of your chel team 7 - Alt Jersey not saving jersey or socks when going in team practice on chel (none scrimmage) 8 - Replay showing previous goal scored instead of penalty (wrong replay being shown) 9 - Menus are ridiculously laggy and slow yet again, though not much that can probably be done regarding that now I guess… Some of these bugs / missing features are game breaking honestly, didn’t pay all this money for the deluxe edition to experience this day one, I 110 percent won’t be buying at launch ever again! If it takes too long to correct the above… (Other than that I love how the game plays, the skating physics etc, but come on please fix what I and others have mentioned sooner rather than later otherwise this game will flop)
State of EASHL / WoC
With the removal of search settings, “queue dodging” is becoming a widespread issue. Player goalies are being forced into unfair matchups against AI, and lag in some games is completely out of control with the server region settings gone. it’s now harder than ever to get into a game, and even more difficult to enjoy the game you get into. Many posts have been made about this issue, and it’s yet to be addressed leaving me to believe that the removal of this feature is intentional. Looking for a community manager response
“Switching to other games.”
We as a community, deserve better than the garbage we are receiving. There are many issues that I won’t even discuss but I will mention gameplay, and cosmetics. Gameplay: Legends: Extremely unbalanced. Two words, Crypto and Ash. Not going to get into it too much. Guns: Also extremely unbalanced, the Eva-8, L-Star, the Rampage, the 3 best (unfair) weapons on ground, I don’t pick them up, they are boring, and too easy to kill people with. TTK: The TTK is way too fast, especially for something like Apex, an ability based game, the game is an outright healing game, you can hold so many heals but in games like Fortnite or COD, you can’t hold that many. For new players and casuals, the TTK is terrible, I like it. I love being able to everyone with a R99. But for others, it is just unfair. My friend is a casual and he can’t even protect his team anymore? He mains Gibby. I main Octane. He loves playing slow and supporting his team. He can’t do that anymore, even I, a sweat can’t even play as well. I can’t carry my team as I used to. And by all means, me and my friend aren’t terrible at the slightest. Many game styles have been thrown to the dust. Respawn cares about the “pros”? What about casuals? I can still play the new TTK, but it’s not that fun anymore. I’m a sweat, and I hate just killing everybody in a few seconds and then getting a squad wipe pretty easily, as we are trying to heal, something called 3rd parties come out of their den to hunt us down. We beat them, another on comes. I’m not joking, the 3rd parties got worse as healing don’t matter as you are looting and trying to armour swap. Matchmaking: Even worse than last season, they added some chart before you get into selecting your legend? That doesn’t help anything. We want changes. The TTK made matchmaking worse, level 5s can kill a good amount of people playing Ash and using the Eva-8, and end up in lobbies with platinum, or higher. Cosmetics: Legend and Weapon skins: The skins are terrible, they are just terrible. They are never creative, and useless in game. You can’t even see the skin unless you’re using an heirloom which costs 500 bucks and even if you have one, you can see the hands of the skin? Wow, amazing. I can go to Fortnite to get more skins for less money. They are more creative, more interesting, and I can see it in game. Or for Overwatch, I feel like they gift skins to players very often, they are pretty generous. Valorant weapon skins have actual different reload and inspect animations, the only time we had that, was with the new 500 dollar mythic R301, and Valorant isn’t even close to that expensive. Fortnite has creative skins, that are modeled nicely, despite them being kind of stupid, they are cool. A pickaxe, sometimes, you get a parachute as well, and honestly, being able to play as Master Chief would be as sick as hell. Another example, Overwatch, Overwatch gives legendary skins pretty often, and give extremely good sales on them like discounts. Valorant (I already mentioned). Honestly, bros. I’m going to switch to Valorant, Overwatch, and who knows, maybe even Fortnite. To Respawn, it doesn’t matter, I’m just one player lost, just a spec of dust in a old cabinet.
Matchmaking In WoC
There are a lot of unbalanced matchmaking going on this year and it’s really putting a damper on the game. I understand that the game will have a larger pool of players to match make with in the coming months but it’s currently wrecked. Very rarely will you be placed in a match with players that are near you in skill level. Meaning the discrepancy between your team and your opponents teams ranking points are MASSSIVE. This forces teammates to often quit the game because they can’t keep up with that play style. The largest gap I’ve seen so far was 13,000 RP. That’s totally unrealistic and unreasonable. I’ve never even had one game where everyone was within the same rank.Event Gifting | Find a Friend Here!

EA_Aljowhat is going on with the matchmaker? I’ve tried quick play and dropin 3’s there are no matches. We just sit there and it times out 3 times after 3+ minutes. But after waiting 10 minutes with no matches I can leave while that team is still searching and instantly find another group of people. Then I can leave them while they are still searching and find anther one. And another. It takes less than 30 seconds to find another group of people and I can hop rooms like crazy finding more people searching. But none of those groups are getting matched up because then I’ll wait another 10 minutes with one of them and same thing despite me being able to bounce at any time and find a new group. Why are all these people sitting in lobbies not playing each other? There’s no reason I should be waiting 10 minutes then leave and find a new group of people to wait with in 15 seconds . That makes no sense.
