OMG 5 minutes no match

Also why can we not select which mode anymore? I abhore Assault mode and only want skirmish.

Cicada-3C I managed to play 1 match after the patch. After that nothing - 4 times "Failed to Find Match"...Total time 20 minutes of searching for a match.

Not exactly happy.

EDITED

For reference, best way you could help is post what mech class you were in and how long your wait was before you cancelled.

[Semesis]

Light mech - 5 tries
Med mech - 4 tries
Assualt mech- 2 tries
Heavy mech- 3 tries
and counting..

HOW MANY GOLD MECHS YOU GOT LEFT NOW BABY!!

Connected to a game.....There were two of us on each side.

Technically, that's balanced....

Oh. We've got two heavies, they've got two lights

There is nothing for us to talk about. You are so scared that a dozen guys will earn c-bills faster than you (even if they won't) so that you are willing to screw thousands of honest players over it.

I've already explained how your proposal can be abused, so "even if they won't" holds little water.

As for "screw thousands of honest players over it"... yeah, what they have done is the exact opposite of that. All they have done is not given goodies out in one type of game mode that is going to get used less than the Goodies giving game mode. Unless their was some Declaration of Rights To Goodies In All Game Modes that I never heard about.

Multiple attempts as a medium to find a pub match- no joy, timed out each time. Logged off and back on after a few mins to try my luck again- my mech is showing as in-game Oo

[Blackhawk ge]

tryed with several weight class and failed most the time in finding a match, got only 2 with a light and an assault.

I would rather like to play some unbalanced matches as to wait ages for a match

[RavensScar]

Found 1 match dropping with a friend, both in mediums. Since then, absolutely nothing.

Anyone want to try putting together a Private match, inviting all the people in this thread?

i'm not a hater. I loved this game. It's just unplayable at the moment. Nothing emotionaly about that...

There's no hate. WE CAN'T PLAY. Understand it? Matchmaker is NOT working.

Put some salve on your butt hurt. I wasn't referring to you.
Bugs happen. They'll fix it. I'm just happy we are finally at this point.

Now you want times??
around 15 to 60 seconds before the pop up occurred. But honestly, 2-3 I clicked cancel cause I got tired of waiting.
And am I missing something?? Wheres the option for conquest, assault, skirmish????????

[chewie]

Private Matches = WIN!!!!!!!

Now make it so that you don't have to have premium time to access this feature.

This function alone is gonna make this game so much better for lots of players.

Thanks PGI for doing something really right by the players.

Shouldn't the first 2 exclamations be "I managed to get into a game!!!"

My first game was 8 disconnects on the opposing team and 9 on mine. Ended up as a fun little lance fight.

The match type option is currently broken, and will be hotfixed tomorrow. And you're saying you get "Failed to find match" after 15 seconds of waiting?

And you base this statement on what exactly?

So I could invite my friends for a farmfest of C-Bills and it wouldn't even hurt their K/D ratio?

Wow, cool!

PhoenixFire55, on 29 April 2014 - 11:30 AM, said:

Oh yeah, and there are hundreds of volunteers to stand still and do nothing already lining up. Get real. 1 guy farms, 23 guys get crap. When another one of those 24 wants to farm its only he who gets anything. Overall, c-bill/exp gain speed is same as if they'd just play normally, thus farming this way is useless. It'll be much easier to farm in 3/3/3/3 by taking 3 meta assaults + meta 3D and stomping 'casual' 4-man plus their pugs on the other team.

It's a free to play game, it's a relatively common occurrence for players to have alt/dummy accounts.

This would allow players to not sacrifice their KDR or W/L to farm in this manner.

I'm not sure if you can start a second client at the same time as the initial one, but a second pc/laptop or a vm sidesteps that issue entirely.

[KHETTI]

Wow, all time low, patch is fail on most epic of proportions, just came out of a game, 6 v 2, everyone else didn't connect!.
Time to call it a day i think PGI, the joke has gotten stung out far to long.

[P5YCO]

Oh, i quit cause I was bored of not getting a match. Went back in for another try, and 3 mechs are in a game. How the hell did they get in without me!!!!!
