I’m sure there have been a million posts complaining about matchmaking. This one isn’t about the matchmaker not creating even games, it’s about the matchmaker taking too long to make a game. My specific case is that I play a lot of quick play and I group up with multiple friends of varying rank. The gap between the highest and lowest players is pretty big, granted. That said, it takes usually 10 minutes to find a match (NA East), and matches themselves rarely last 10 minutes themselves so I’m spending more time in queue than in-game which sucks. I know the matchmaker is trying hard to make fair games right now, but these queue times are just way too long for me. I feel like it would be fair to make the matchmaker more lenient if you’re grouping.
So this is what you want, PXQ1N2 ? This is a game I just played vs a full 5 stack. How do I know it was a full 5 stack? I checked the TTV. I even had a console cross player on my team, lol. It is not fair for solo players to face stacks. The queue time is already instant for qp solo because the matchmaking is so bad. We don’t need it even worse.
Absolute garbage matchmaking. I get that all the time in my QP as well. A casual mode with the most players.
Console players and stacks. How hard is it to find 10 PC players in my 1/2 the world?
I’m gold ffs that should give me access to everything from silver to dia which is basically tens of thousands of players, even during off hours.
The thing is, even if were just purely random…I wouldn’t have a 95% crossplay rate.
Something is fake and rigged, in the wrong direction, or it’s just dead.
That’s the price you pay for big groups, recommend breaking off into groups of 2 or 3. That or play OQ where the matchmaker feels much looser and I see 4/5 stacks all the time despite me just being in a duo.
Today has been my longest queue solo since playing OW2. I chose all roles by myself and after 13 minutes gave up and tried mystery heros…waited 7 minutes and just logged off the game. I don’t get why it is suddenly so bad…if is it supposedly because it is matching us better, my experience is still all over the place, but I wait longer for it now. I hope this does not continue to be the trend or I won’t be playing anymore. D:
