Hi,
I have a Devoted Cleric. I managed to get to page 1 on leaderboard (low level).
After that, the system only group me with players that does not play the pvp game:
- -They never start at middle
- They dont fight at points
- They dont kill / dont cap / dont assist
- They begin the match AFK
The enemy team is all opposite. So I got a ton of ELO Rating and Leaderboard position, and in compensation, the system group me with the worst players.
This is the result.

Of course, I lost my page 1.
Fix please.

You know the rest, even if you can tank 2-3 for a while, you can never cap, and there goes your scores. Also, since your teammates don't fight on the spot or drop like flies, they don't help much with capping either. So there goes the entire game...
This is exactly what you get when you are performing very well. You get teammed with very low Elo rating people and no matters what you do, you always loose, even if you are holding a node versus 3.
- it will put together semipremades vs pugs. So me and a friend duo together, and some guildies duo as well. Both parties very high ELO. Instead of putting us against each other, the matchmaking puts us in the same party making up for a 4/5 premade, and then matches us against bad pugs.
- it is unable to offer quality pug games. System is just too dumb to understand important factors such as party composition. It doesn't take in consideration node holders in teams, so you might end up with 1 GF/2 CW/2 DC party vs 3 GWF+2 HR.
However, the biggest failure is not the system itself. I suspect the matchmaking would work way better, if only...
... there would be enough players in queue.
This game is very small. There aren't enough PvPers, and many that PvP are there for AD/daily. They have no idea whatsoever what they doing, and they do not care.
It is a very small game. There are simply not enough players to satisfy the needs of a good PvP game.
Just put a lobby system into the game like every other multiplayer game does.
Remove AD rewards from pvp and let players play who ever they like.
Problem solved.
I would do pvp premades all day against other equal minded players. Without grinding through endless pug stomping matches or against the typical DISRESPECTing *cough cough* pvp troll comps.
If u solo queue, things like this will happen very often, just have fun and play the game...(can't always win)
1. A certain number of people will try PvP for the first time because of the AD reward, find they like it, and stay. I was one of those people in fact. Remove the AD reward and you remove a mechanism for introducing and retaining new PvP players.
2. Some people who only really PvP rely on the AD awards as a significant source of income.

Karrin Feywinter - Mistress of Flame
Errin Duskwalker - Executioner
Darquess - Soulbinder
Instead of removing the AD reward, one could simply introduce a 'report' option. When someone gets at least 3 reports (for example for staying afk) he get kicked with a leaver penalty and replaced.

You can see in this thread that people prefer long queues with balanced matches http://nw-forum.perfectworld.com/showthread.php?685261-PVP-More-balanced-vs-Fast-Join-PVP
3 hour. You are taking your argument to extreme, also you have ad hominem. :cool:
CRAZY MIKE - 14.6k PvE CW
Backbone - 16.7k PvP HR

And again, you take your point to extreme, nobody said 100% ELO. Stop trolling taking all ideas to the extreme.
I prefer long queues and balanced matches. Like the 70% of this poll http://nw-forum.perfectworld.com/showthread.php?685261-PVP-More-balanced-vs-Fast-Join-PVP.
You can read all the post of this thread, exposing the same problem. No need to necro man.
You are the minority that rolfstomp pugs with a 5 man premade. Its the only reason to prefer not balanced matches.
Who want a match with 1 good player and 4 with very low Elo?
:rolleyes:
Stop crying about pvp community attitude. :cool:
I laugh when I want to. Are you the laughable ppl privilege owner? Do you expend permission to laugh?
You started to post this thread with ad hominem. What do you expect from that? Be more polite and people maybe would be nice with you. Stop crying :cool: and stop trolling, I want this thread clean and not closed.

^ this right here.
Regardless of what anyone might have said in that poll, I can clearly remember the rivers of QQ we had on here when ELO was first launched and the wait for matches was in the 10-20 minute range. I honestly don't think the player base is ready for waits of up to 30 minutes for Domination PvP - they are too used to near-instant queue pings at peak times and maybe 5 minutes at slower times.

Maybe magenubbie and me have diferent opinions, but there....
Men you're the one that is *crying* a lot of time on this forum, making treads about how bad the matchmaking system is...
Matchmaking is bad for EVERYONE, but we can live with it, and not come to the forum to cry everytime we lose because of bad team compositions(lowgs, noideaofpvp, etc), you can't expect to win always, if u want to always win get 5 men trollcomp, and even with that comp u may lose, since there are few good pvpers outhere that can deal with them(or maybe u just encounter another troll comp better geared thant urs...)
You already said you completely quit PVP earlier in thread. Why not quit PVP thread then?
Only one person I see worthy of reporting , and that is MAgenubbie for saying things like " Don't pretend you know me, simply because I don't agree with your point of view. It's disrespecting, based on arrogant and unfounded assumptions and generally makes you look like an idiot. "...
YOU are the one talking trash because people disagree with you .
How many threads are you going to walk in and HAMSTER on before the mods clean up your confrontational comments and boot you from this forum so we can stop listening to you first attack, then cry, for getting called on your personal attacks.
