Plz PGI tell me what is this ELO about, it doesn´t working at all.
The most time i play with 3 other players. What ever if i dropp alone the most players have no idea that they are doing. 12/0 is no exception. They die in the fist 5 min and make no dmg at all, no Teamplay nothing.
At some point it seem´s you stick player only with newbie´s and u have to die your way trough.
Why is there any ELO @ all, if at some point it doesn´t matter any more and i have to start @ the beginng?
PLZ tell me, is this as intended?! If this is your Plan, this makes no sense @ all. You match newbies against "pro´s" and you stick experienced players in newbie groups to get there ELO down?
A Stock Mech has no chance against a Master Mech, that is only disappointing for newbie´s.
This is also true the other way around.
Will this be going on, or is there any Solution on the horizon?

I´m with you on that. Just posted almost the same 5mins ago... 12/0 steamrolls over and over and over again. This sucks!

PGI says you are making too much money. So, the better you get, the worse your team mates are.

Are they different people each time or is the matchmaker having to match you with the same people due to a lack of playerpool?


Any matchmaker can be defeated by low populations.

Ever notice how it's always one's teammates' fault? I pug all the time and 12-0 is so rare that I have to wonder if YOU are the one doing something wrong? Even when my team gets rolled really bad it's usually like 12-2, 12-3. MAYBE once a day I'll see 12-0.

Honestly, ELO seems like it's been disabled or the matchmaker is just totally random ever since the introduction of 12v12.

The level of mouth breathing has increased exponentially recently.

Even in a bad loss, you should be able to get at least one kill.

You win some and you lose some, if you can at least enjoy a few kills and some damage in a match job well done and better luck next time.

You should embrace the chance to battle your enemies while outnumbered and still take them down!
