Hi All,

Been playing MWO for 2,3 months. I have an issue with the latest patch.

In the past i would find a match in not more than 20-30 seconds but now i'm waiting for a match almost 5-10 minutes.

Do you have the same problem ?

Thank you,
Vlad

At least you can play. I have been slapped with "Failed to find a match" ever since I loaded the last patch. I expect that this will be hammered out soon though.

Matchmaking is taking excessively long.
Failed to find a match X5 and counting now.
I did play two games, but not wasting any more time on this.

Managed 4 matches in the last hour. Might be because most folks are downloading the update?

Clearly something is seriously broken in the new match maker.. I was getting in just after uptime, but now it's failing over and over. How you can put out such a broken piece of crap like this is beyond me (that said as a Software Engineer who comprehends what solid code, good testing, and stress testing things is all about).

If you search a match specificly (assault mode for example) it worked for me.
If i searched in any type it didnt found.

lol i have tried over 50 times today i got 4 maches,,, okay so i don't have a life what of it lol.

i think it is bad for asualts becuase we do so much damage, my brother uses havie and mediem and he gets maches first try.

Cannot find match? Hell, I can't even log in. I get the log in screen, enter my password, then get a popup with "A network error occurred".

Failed to find a match after many minutes.... Several attempts, and now a quick, successful join - hmm.

Well ****, I'm trying Unistall/reinstall and now I can't even download a fresh copy of the game. Get a similar network error message.

ELO Tuning

We just wanted to notify the community that we are aware the new match maker can take a while to find a match. We're actively monitoring the data coming in from the match maker and we are planning to tune it to ensure that the average time to find a match is acceptable. Even with pre-seeding there is a degree of balancing that needs to occur over the next day or so.

Please bear with the match maker and don't Alt-F4 etc. as that will only make the issue worse for now. We will keep you posted as we make updates.

[Grendel518]

Med mechs, bad stats, previously played 10 matches an hour now I get 3-4

[Molecule]

Patience guys.........they are fine tuning as we speak. Give them more data but keeping at it

[Iron Mouse]

I know this is beta but its obvious the program was not stress tested before it was released. With this type of issue going on the servers should of been taken down ASAP and the old system restored then go back to the drawing board and fix.

Also, this isn't really beta anymore. Beta is when users are asked to specifially test functions and give feed back. You don't start asking for money to buy stuff in game if it isn't out of Beta.

Eitherway, they should have enough data by now to tweek it so people can at least get on.

[Arcaist]

Cheez....WE are the stress testers, PLEASE just realise it....this is a beta...how else should they obtain data, then by having us test it

And besides...MWO is by far not the only game doing it this way. Try some other betas, its the same way...they have to raise the money somehow. Just a similar version of kickstarter.

Yes, it's called internal testing. When they release a patch that totally breaks the matchmaking and thus the entire game that is not beta testing, Cheez.

[Strykewolf]

Should clear out in a bit. They just reset to the old matchmaking set up.
