    I agree with the author, bought game few days ago, and now want to back my money, cause its not the game, that i saw on beta. I dont have any prestige characters, i have only one lawbringer, with lvl 10(10 Carl), my gear lvl max - 5 on account, and i must fight against guys with 9 prestige and 108 gear? Realy? You think its good balanced matchmaking? I cant learn how to play on character, when i play against badasses, its like if you shove into one team challenger and bronze in LoL, thats boring, i dont want to play PvP, cause of your matchmaking.
    Yeah im not godskill, so give me not godskill opponnets, now fights isnt interesting, cause after 3-4 hits my opponents gets rage, and welcome to tavern...

    Please ubi, back me my money, thats not game, which i want to buy, or which i play on beta.

    P.S. Sry for bad english, but the sense remains the same

    Oh true i dident read your first post. Yeah then it sucks. But P2W is not true, yeah some people play 24/7 and they are high Ranked. Thats normal in every game. But you can beat them.

    The Matchmaking works BEFOR you pick a Champion. So you have overall Champions Prestige 4, so you get Matched against Prestige +-4, looks fine to me.

    When they add a mode where you can pick your Champion befor queing, then its Possible (Like Heroes of the Storm Casual).

    Soooo please stop blaming Matchmaking, yeah its not cool, but they have NO chance to change this, unless they implement a new Mode.

    Same with this 10´000 Threaths about P2P... yeah it sucks a lot, but thats implementet and can only be changed with alot of time an resources. So please stop be stupid and play or play another game.

    For Honor is good game and it will be better in a couple of Weeks. So go on Dev Team! Great work.
    Ok man, that sounds legit. they cant match up 108ers with other 108ers, cause match making will not know, which hero you will choose.
    in fact the problem is another:
    endgame gear needs to get a rework. everyone is runnin around with these *fast revenge god mode* builds...

    yeah matchmaking is a dumpster fire. sucks because when the game works it's actually fun. this is why many people including myself see no potential in 4v4 and all the potential in duels/brawls.
    4v4 is too casual.

    Your post confirms that it's broken. It's not fair even if I have a lvl God player with gold gear. If I want to use my lower lvl, **** gear character, I can't stand a chance against someone higher lvl.
    Match making needs to be made based on your current selected hero. No changing heroes in menu just before the start. That's b.s.

    I've had a level 1 gear 0 guy on my team with my Rep 2 character vs people with Rep 1 - Rep 3.
    Now, not being funny, he has never even fought another player on that character, he doesn't belong in that fight no matter how you look at it.
    I do think level of character would be better.
    Thats pretty much the standard for all the other multiplayer pvp games I have played.

    World of Warcraft? You know, only the biggest multiplayer pvp game on the planet

    Reading the support page about matchmaking says they use "skill" as a determining factor. I am guessing this has nothing to do with reputation level or gear since we all know the system can't guess which character you will be using. But rather using k/d ratio and win percentage as these are the only hard figures available. So while a rep 0 player maybe matched against a higher rep player the system has determined they are on equal footing due to these parameters.

    Barring any changes to the system this obviously favors people who main one character rather than those who diversify. Which I have ran into myself leveling other characters than my Rep 4 Conqueror. Having said that if it relied on gear alone you may get people of equal gear level being matched against people who are naturally better at the game resulting in a discrepancy of skill in another form.

    And if there are no changes to be made anytime soon the only way to move forward is to level up and get some gear of your own. Which is not that hard, in one day of playing off and on I was at Rep 1 quite quickly. You will take some knocks along the way but such is the way of a MP game. Having said that though I have met some very skilled people along the way that took me down even with me having the "gear" advantage on them. So while they may have some advantage the fight is not lost at all no matter their gear.

    The moral, while you can't force a MM change you can control your level and gear choose a favorite knuckle up and get yourself to level ground.
