Hello, today im here to give my feedback about the HORRIBLE matchmaking in For Honor.
Me, an overall reputation of 12 keeps constantly getting paired up into a team with randoms around the same overall rep, againts a team that have really high overall reps.
For examle: This happened about 30 minutes ago, I got paired up with an overall 9, 12 and a BOT. Againts an overall rep of 119, 213, 51 and 92. The match was totally unplayable as the enemy team completely destroyed us. Then, when i leave the match because of pure frustration, as a slap in the face i get a 15 minute ban to matchmaking. Please, fix this or the game will soon become completely unplayable.
I have to agree, the poor matchmaking system is what causes such a toxic behaviour in-game, that game was far from balanced with your team have 0 chance of winning (I wouldn't blame anyone for leaving in that instance).
There's no fun to be had when the game is completely unbalanced, we have even more concerns regarding matchmaking that has plagued the game since day one, like:
- Getting kicked to the Main Menu, cause the game tried to put you in a full lobby (instead of re-queing instantly to find another game), this happens 90% of the time when you queue with a party.
- The constant errors and bugs that plague matchmaking due to leaving and rejoining the queue (that make it impossible to join a game, until you entirely close and restart the game).
- Adding insult to injury we have the constant unbalanced matches, where one team always has unfair advantage over another (like you stated).
All of this issues together, is the reason I mostly focus in PVE nowadays with my friends (BOTs play better than humans anyway), since Ubisoft reset ranks I pretty much stopped playing on the Xbox One (and PVP).
Cause honestly the time it takes to find a proper PVP match, you can play 5 PVE matches.
I'm seriously thinking to give up on this game since they changed this matchmaking system. My overall reputation rank's 41 and I'm constantly getting paired up against players with overall rep 179 or above that. I can't even play the game anymore cuz' every single match me and my team gets completely destroyed.
This game it's starting be more and more frustrating after every single update
