[Locked] Matchmaking Feedback Update – May 1

• Soft Forfeit
  • It will be "safe" to leave if someone has already left the match (from either team).
  • No need to stay on to prevent a ban or extra point loss.
  • No ban if someone has already left
  • No extra CSR loss penalty if someone has already left.
  • You still lose the same amount of CSR as a normal loss.
  • Leavers always lose CSR, regardless of how their team does after, so it’s better to stay if you’re on the winning / advantaged team until the other team leaves.
• Reduced early-season wait times for higher-skilled players
  • High-skilled players sometimes get MMRs that are higher than is needed.
  • These will now be truncated to a reasonable value at the beginning of the season.
  • They are still high enough to prevent very uneven matches, but low enough to allow more timely matchmaking.
• Even Stricter CSR boundaries: Onyx population reduced again
  • The previously fixed inflation bug had inflated this despite the changes.
  • We should see even stricter boundaries in the new season

• Expanded Switching back to Balanced bug is fixed
• CSR inflation drastically reduced
• CSR smurfing incentives greatly reduced
• Better CSR gains for high-skilled players early in the season
• Reduced wait times for SWAT and FFA

• No ban if someone has already left

• You still lose the same amount of CSR as a normal loss.

You know Josh all of this sounds great but without fully working servers this wont mean much, btw have you got any, literally any idea of when the recent issues will be fixed in regards to the servers?

What about those times when the game starts with only 3 players?

• You still lose the same amount of CSR as a normal loss.

Why? You're in a lose-lose situation. If you leave your CSR drops and if you stay your K/D gets thrashed. This is stupid.

• Are we losing? Convince whoever's turn it is to leave early
• Everyone else leaves without losing CSR
• With 50/50 matchmaking, where your CSR should not be going up or down you net +30 CSR every 8 games and constantly go up. (-30 once for everyone on their turn, and +15 to everyone for 4 wins = 4 * 15 - 30 = 60 - 30 = +30 points per 8 games when it should be +0)
