0 and 12 this weekend (tier 2) and I couldn't buy a win if it let me. Since the big patch, honestly, the match maker has felt completely unbalanced. It's probably just confirmation bias, but match after match after match of getting your *** handed to you gets old. Watching your team just melt as soon as they see the enemy gets old.

I think I'm done. Park this game for a month or two. It's just not fun anymore.

Good games.

Yeah, I had a bad time yesterday with literally 6 or 7 matches in a row being complete losses with my team just running from the enemies and hiding behind an inescapable hill. It's probably just more new players being active because of the event.

Sorry guys. I think I took all your luck. When the event started I nolifed about 25 matches in a row and lost maybe 7. This trend is continuing today.

Some times you are the fly and other times you are the wind shield. Give it a day or two and the issue usually resolves itself.

Going for 0 for 16 here.

Been playing before I went to work,and after I got back.

Every single match has been a total washout.

I'm Tier 4 almost 3 and it's nothing but total potatoes Posted Image I have moments where I'm terribad too,but I'm not shuffling single file into enemy fire.

Also,nothing but CQ and assault,where lights won't capture base,but instead run off and hide in the corner when everyone else dies.

Don't play events, everyone derps out and it stops being fun.

Try coming back on wednesday.

Good games.


That's how the matchmaker works- it wants to give you as close to a 1/1 W/L ratio as possible.

Unfortunately, it also usually expresses this by long losing streaks and using you as high-skill "fodder" in a team full of potatoes. Shut down the game completely, swap weight classes, and that's usually enough to break the hate-lock.

You are just being unlucky (which admittedly sucks).
I had a really bad lose streak a few days ago, having teams that seemed brain-dead. Now i'm having a lot of fun, had some very nice matches.
Either hold on until you get out of MM Hell or go play something else for a few days, usually works for me Posted Image
