[Poll] Are You Happy With The Current Matchmaking System

Unknown

Hmm can't remember his name but I saw another 350 Fisk (with 166 QS on the roster) kinda scary thinking there are multiple people like that out there. I still hulkbombed this particular whale but I am sure my retal is coming

Just began the Kingpin event (Hostile Takeover), I finish off the seed teams and BAM, straight across the face. Looks like I'll be spending yet another 200-500 ISO on trying to find a proper match-up for my ** team <_<

I ran into this exact guy on my DD PvP. Did you look at his roster? Yeesh. I feel like he's a seed team just for top level players or something haha!

I thought teh "update" fixed the MMR a bit? First team on hostile takover after seed teams? a 270 xforce with a 166 3* thor....yeah, that's fixed

Since the fix mine has been pretty much right on what my roster is, I am a 2-3 transitioner and all my fights are against stock kingpin and 94 2*s and I'm already over 500 points which I've never hit before. Whatever they did yesterday fixed it for me.

Try force quitting the game, and coming back and skipping a few of those teams. We cache those locally, so you might need to clear them out. Please let me know if that helped; we're looking for more feedback on the latest update.

I am also not experiencing any change to the horrible MMR.

I've closed out, restarted, skipped, etc etc etc. Noting but maxed out teams and "Fun" as far as i can see

I voted no earlier but the new fix has helped for me. initial climb into the 400s was 'normal'. and have good matchups lined up for next run. not all are 'easy' and I wiped for the first time in a long time but only lost 6 pts, so it really only cost me a couple of health packs. otherwise I would have been close to 500 on my initial push. beat a 172 xf - first time I tried one so high (was something like 2/1/4) but lost to a 130 torch - those are the breaks.

Mine has definitely improved.
Seeing a lot more playable matches than previously.
Pleasantly surprised.

Is the MMR in the Shield Simulator also affected/fixed ?

Mine hasn't been fixed. I always look at the positives though, you know? I have been spending far too much time playing MPQ these last 247 days. It's safe to say that I have been completed addicted to the game since I discovered it. I've even thrown away some real life money, which is unheard of in my little world.

With the new MMR, things have been better. I open the game, check to make sure that there are no matches I can win- heck, sometimes I even go ahead and lose one just for kicks. Then I close the game. Today I saw Lightening Round and thought "Finally, I can have some fun!" No seed teams, just teams of level 166's and 270's. I figure it's just bad timing; I didn't quite get to a fully developed 3* roster in time. Didn't spend enough real money. Gambled and lost. My interest in the game is dwindling. I am checking in less often since losing a match and then closing the game is less fun than just closing the game- or not opening it in the first place.

I figured maybe their servers were getting bogged down, so they were trying to figure out how to make everybody stop playing. Is that inaccurate?

On the plus side, I've been going to bed early lately- a nice change from the last 247 days or so. I even opened up Candy Crush and beat that level that I was so stuck on 247 days ago... and a few more! I was like "Yeah, I won a match, it's been so long!" Then I downloaded that new Candy Crush Soda Saga everybody has been talking about. It's not nearly as fun as MPQ used to be, but I am able to win matches, so... it's better than nothing. Better than the new thing MPQ has going on.

It has actually helped, it's not fun and optimal, but it's better than before. As already stated, most of the fun for me is the climb and using my charecters I don't get to use often enough. I don't go around taking down 2* teams with a maxed xforce, I like playing my lower guys while climbing so I can enjoy them, so forcing me to use my xforce and guest team right off the bat (or before 500 IMO) takes a heap of fun out of the game, and diesn't let me play with my roster.

Appreciate the suggestion Kabir.

IMO the MMR in sheild sim is still terrible, haven't done a single match and I have a lot of maxed teams popping up, and lower teams are like level 110+ 3*s minimum....i'd like to use my 25+ guys under level 100 once in a while for kicks...more than 2 nodes per sub on PvE.

The Kingpin one is by far the best i have seen. Not taking 500 iso to find a match i can win, usually just 1 or 2 skips past the freebies, closing in on getting my first time ever 2nd event token from 1 event.

Downside.. I appear to be a target lol.

Shielded now, but i was all the way up to # 13, check back an hour later, the same 3 people had all hit me multiple times, lost 86 points (ouch!), Won a couple more matches to get me back into top 20 and shielded until tonight.

How are the same people getting me over and over.. and why won't the AI smarten up? I could have won 1 or 2 of those (maybe lol)

Kingpin changes have made me much more likely to vote "Yes" here, but I'd still prefer to vote "Meh".

Was able to run up to 950 points mostly unmolested and then shield for health packs. Suddenly my matches all started returning 5s and 6 points too, so figured a break was in order. There is no reason for the matching system to return any matches <10 points at least.

Kingpin has worked well for me, but the MMR for the LR's is currently terrible. Right after seed teams it seems like nothing but maxed out teams.

Unknown

I'm guessing the Lightning rounds were still bad because you have to win once to show up to others. So all the easier opponents would have opened it up. Seen nothing but maxed x forces and said "screw this" and closed out. Then after the mmr changes there would have still only been those maxed people.

Unknown

It's changed a bit better for me as well. At least I can now face reasonably equal team.
