Happened a couple times last night, and now, two or three times today, and I've been playing for like an hour. I never see it this commonly...


Anyone else getting a lot of failed to find a match errors lately? I purchased Ilya and have been levelling it up, so maybe its just a matter of not enough Heavys in the game, but given the number of ____Cats I see in the came, I doubt it's that.

So even as a PUG you cannot find a Match... I have had that a few times also. Odd.

[Ghogiel]

I get it at least once every play session in PUGs.

I'm waiting to hear it...

hear what? That the MM couldn't find you a heavy spot in a match?

I've seen this maybe 15 times out of 500 games or so. Sometime I don't see it for weeks, sometimes it happens a couple of times a night.

No big deal. Even Halo 4 fails to find matches sometimes and there are a bazillion people playing that.

THE SKY IS FALLING MW:O IS AN ABSOLUTE FAILURE PLAYERS ARE JUMPING FROM THIS SINKING SHIP... BLAH..BLAH.. BLAH?

I'm a glass full type of guy... I view this more so as "everyone is playing" and 99.99% of the time the next launch finds me a match immediately...

Happens sometimes when I drop with friends and we are in mediums and lights.

[Serapth]

I get this rarely, and have since CB.


But a couple times in an hour is disturbing. Granted, in Ilya all those matches, so that might be part of it. Was simply wondering if people were seeing it more commonly today.

Thank You DaZ But you only said it cause I egged it. I can wait.

This is pretty common for premades already. It's the main reason I'm not a big fan of splitting the MM further by only matching premades against other premades and other such things.

Good luck trying to get a Conquest match in the 8v8 queue. It just will not happen.

Seems like when I get this I get the feeling I am hitting the launch button too quickly when coming out of the mech lab or chosing a different mech. Am wondering if the game isn't recognizing the new choice so it glitches it because as soon as I get the no match found message, I'll wait a couple of seconds, hit it again and off I go. Just a thought.

It has happened occasionally from the very beginning, more at odd hours than prime time.. Were you trying to play during the Superbowl???

It was actually between about 3-4:30PM today, when it occured a couple times.

Yesterday I dont really remember when, earlier I believe, 2PM EST or earlier I think, but dont want to be quoted.

I couldn't tell you when the superbowl even was... I care about as much for American Football as I care for non-American Football, which is somewhere in between cricket and badminton.


That's a lie btw, Olympic Badminton fing rocks!

I have played 100% of the time as a PUG and I've seen the failed to find a match message about one in every dozen attempts to join a game. It hasn't seemed to have changed much since I started playing in October.

People want to add filters to the matchmaker and.... Guess, what? You have to wait longer for a match then before.

I seen another thread earlyer that said the matchmaker was making group better then it did before (1 four man premade per side and 4 PUGs on each side).

Filters add wait time.

The cause can be any number of things. Only the staff tracking activity on the server know for sure.
