CFX -Brazilian- Tank-Gold/Suport-Silver/DPS-horrible but almost gold
Hello guys, i came here to talk about the game match making and some other things that have been bothering me, i realy want to know if it’s only on SA or that is happening to everybody. (btw i’m brazilian, so forgive me for some english/spelling errors)
1- SA servers
there are 2 major problems on this topic.
First: South American servers have a big disconnection problem, that leads to 6x5 or 6x4 or even 4x4 matchs, also, not just you get disconnected, you lose 50 SR points for quiting, and a suspension, for a " crime" you didn’t even committed. ( don’t know if it’s only here)
Second: SA Server in general, there is no logic in mixing all SA in one server, Brazil can’t play with argentina, chile, peru, and other neighbors, simply because WE SPEAK DIFFRENT LANGUAGES, that is a mess, Brazil speak portuguese, the other countries around speak spanish, in the competitive play we can’t coordenate the game, most of the brazilians don’t speak spanish, and most of the Castilians (people around brazil who speak spanish) don’t speak portuguese, so the chat is a mass and nobody can comunicate leading to a deafeat, some times i get lucky that the castelian speak english and i can comunicate a little.
Possible solution: i know servers are not the cheapest things on earth, but is the servers were divided in SA portuguese and SA Spanish, it would be so much better in terms of gameplay and communication.
2-Matchmaking
the big problem here is that looks like the game want to make you lose, the major problems are, no level balance and poorly done rank balance, it isn’t hard to see a team with 1 or 2 players level 600+ with levels 25-40, or even 2 golds, 3 silvers and 1 md5 ( my last match, that i was disconnected btw), there is no logic on placing a level 25, that just started the game, against( or on the team) of a lv 600 that has idk 800 hours of game, they have completely different levels of playing experience and wont have a good teamplay.
Possible solutions: make the match making EXCLUSIVELY by level and rank, doesn’t matter if the waiting line grows, I rather wait a little more to get a EVEN team, then waiting 2 minutes and get completely crush by the other team because my team is a mess.
Sugestion: Raise the entry level to competitive queue to 100 ( 1 star), that way, new players can try a lot of the game before entering the ranked
3- Role lock was a mistake on low elos.
Ok, thats a hard topic, but dude, one of the most frustrating experiences on the game now, is having a bad DPS, TANK or SUP, and don’t even having the possibility of talking to it and switching places, I am HORRIBLE DPS, so i play tank and support that i’m not that bad, but sometimes i get a dps even worst then me, and i can’t chat with him saying like " dude, do you wanna try SUP ? let me try dps" before the role lock that saved a lot of matchs, role lock destroy one of the best mechanics of OVERWATCH, the ability of changing your hero any time to any other hero that makes more sense. possible scenario: the enemy have a very good phara, but none of the role locked dps knows how to play a hitscan hero, but the tank knows, with role lock the is impossible to that tank switch to a hitscan dps and help his team, without role lock he can, and maybe lead to a victory.
Stop killing the gratest machanic of the game.
Possible solution: remove role lock
Possible Solution 2: remove role lock on lower elos, lets say from bronze to platinum, and then implement on diamond and forward. ( i would like to have high elo opinion here if it is good to you)
thanks for the time reading this.
