I feel the need to express my feelings on your matchmaking. The queue times are too long and basically suck. If I wanted to wait 2 minutes to play a game each match it wouldn't be so bad but.... guess what I don't and neither do many others.

Figure it out.... My wallet has closed and the game will not be played until you update your lame excuse for groupings...

Try mech classes that are not jamming the queue. It helps.

You think 2 minutes is bad? Oh boy, you must never have tried to play 12 mans back in the day.

2 minutes is about as bad as it gets.


By the standards of the other vehicular MMOs I've played, that's pretty damn good.


Unrustle your jimmies and learn a little patience, or at the least, how to multitask while in qeue.

Something needs to be done about matches. When I go into combat and 9 out of 10 time it ends with one side getting slaughtered while the other side take maybe 2 or 3 kills, that is NOT FUN! Especially since I am invariably on the losing side. It seems like all the best players manage to group together on one side somehow. Matches have always been bad, but it has gotten much worse and is hardly worth playing anymore.

Just a typical day in MWO

Maybe tick the boxes not marked Skirmish? Playing a light also gives you damn near instant queue times.

You need to figure out some patience. If you're playing the highest-percentage weight classes, it's your own damn fault you're having long queue times. Try piloting a chassis in another weight class. And as Troutmonkey said, make sure all three match types are checked.

This is simply due to one side getting a kill first. Numerical advantage is huge in this game, and the lesser side has to work hard and get really lucky to turn disadvantage into victory. Or one side has too many out of position, or everybody goes their own way, etc. It isn't the matchmaker's fault -- the matchmaker is simply the easiest target for peoples' rage.
