Hi,

I noticed just a couple of days, the matchmaking has been kinda' different. As a beta player, can't help but notice it, at least for me & my friend who has three (3) accounts. It's like 4L:1W ratio on an average. If true, what could be the reason? Is this affected by Pilot Skill or having Premium / F2P accounts? Any thoughts or anybody noticed this? Posted Image

I dunno. Last two days, the matchmaker has been taking longer to make matchs for me, but they've been, on average, of significantly greater quality than the match since before Christmas. Feels like they turned restrictive MM back on.

Or maybe its just me.

huh, I got the same feeling/experience last night when I jumped on.
Though, could have just been a "good night" I guess...

Queues were noticeably long(er), at least long enough to go muddle about in the kitchen or go take a leak...

Specify which queue you are dropping in. When mentioning friends it makes one wonder if you are talking about Group or FP and not the solo queue.

Solo QP is affected by PSR. But that means nothing if one side is communicating and working together while the other side has everyone going their own way. FP has no PSR/MM. Group is really does not use PSR, not enough players for it to work properly, but see above. Team play goes a long way.

Depends on time of day when you play. Not a MM thing, it's more of a player skill thing. There are more wolves out at certain times of day.
