Casual Matchmaking is HORRIBLE
Hello!
I quite recently bought this game and unfortunately I've had to experienced the horror of which the current matchmaking system consists of. Beginning my multiplayer experience was a fiasco, the first game that I queued up in and joined was already half done with a pretty-much nonexistant team of two players. The following games I got put in a match where I was facing literal Veterans of the game. The enemy team consisted of players that in total ranked upwards of 1000 levels; with multiple having hefty Platinum competetive rank. As you can image this didn't end well. The following matches only consisted, yet again with teams that had about 1000 combined levels. This went on for about 20 games, I was hanging in there even after losing so many times with no personal gain in knowledge at all. The toxicity was beaming from the players that I was facing. All until I got matched up in a game against and with another pair of new players. This was the single good encounter that I had so far had since starting the game. The enemies were of around the same skill group and I finally felt like I was progressing and actually learning my way around now. I know this isn't going to have much impact on you guys over there but all I'm asking for is that you reconsider the current way matchmaking works. Perhaps even make some simple Casual matchmaking priorities where the system would favor putting players of close skill group together. This would provide benefit for all players, skilled or not.
TLDR:
Casual Matchmaking is horrible, group up players of the same skill group together in a game instead of having the poor lvl 10 dude get crushed by the lvl 300 Platinum player.
Thank you,
Josef
