Dragon Conquest matchmaking is biased and a joke

superfedee

it's a month at least my faction is fighting only other factions of our same server leading it for the most into no shows...
i am starting to be done with this game.​​

6 weeks since Hoorah's last proper xTW, fun times

It's always been a joke and QQ its been years since I had balanced mass-PvP in this game. My only ray of hope is the occasional good 1on1. Anything else is random BS in this game. If you finally realize that you dislike random BS then start doing 1on1s or look for another game.

Seriously, you finally got rid of the jail on your avatar, and now you make a post to get it back?​​

Personally confused why it took you this long nothing new happens if you ask me just bring stuff that's broken to tease then state it will be fixed soon

I belive its just luck. The first 2 xTWs i ran with my faction i had to fight ppl from my own server. After that (march) and since then, it's usually from other servers. maybe 2-3 times with factions from my own. But it seems balanced, not biased...

@jsxshadow you should have come to xtw this last weekend (at least i didnt see you) had a great time vs crisis

As far as matching up for xtw... This whole thing is really new to me but i definitely have only had one good xtw personally so far. I'm not sure why that is. But it is. Why would they match you up with your own server all of the time​​

it's not only the matching it's the amount or wars you can have.
Even if you have the numbers and you have 2-3 wars then you just go to def lvl1 and lvl2 land(s) or at least one of of them and forget the lvl3 land so you can bid it next week.

^ i said it months ago, devs need to limit max number of lands a single faction can hold... tempest had like 6 wars like 2 weeks ago orso.... how can you expect to have good fights if the trend is to obtain as many lands as possible... they will just wine the hard one and keep the rest​​

yeap i remember that we said that in the past when my guild had 4 wars
i hope they limit the wars

Maybe that is part of the challenge. I mean, if its like tw now, and it is sort of, that means you can have theoretically way more battles than you can defend (if enough factions exist with enough players in them to challenge the one faction). That means ita kind of like a safety to make sure that just because one faction is "top" doesnt mean they have secured first place because they may have 3 battles with the top factions of each server all at once causing them to lose a lot of land and therefore their "first place".

But xtw making you tw consistently with your servers faction seems like a rip off. Thats not cross server at all.

Only with regular tw, they usually aren't at the same time so there is better chance that you can attend more than one meanwhile every xtw battle starts at the same time and is held under the restriction that you can't enter a different battle in that same day. This makes no sense because as soon as you get more than 3 battles its already going to be hard to get people to come not to mention if they are against strong(er) factions.

this game has been a joke for years now since teh cash cow fat cat corperation took over . your better off finding another mmo that isnt corrupted by greedy morons in suits

@hogwarts123 there is a chance true. But there are ways to get more battles at once. My faction defended a 7 way attack last year i think it was.

I admitt you have a point though. Plus tw is more intentional with the multiple attacks and defenses where as xtw its all random and all of the time.

Was just trying to look at the bright side since there is a 99.9% chance they wont adjust it because it means more coding. Ahhh the lazy way to make money.​​

Every week there's about 3 - 4 battles over Dragon's Meet, meaning theres anywhere between 6~8 faction signing up, judging by who holds one of the DM lands after the week factions from 3 of the 4 server are actively bidding on lands in Dragon's Meet, yet for some reason we always get an opponent from our very own server, which quite honestly is a bore, so much so that the hype has kinda died down and the interrest in xTW is kinda fading away if its just gna be a snooze every week. Statistically speaking the chance of this happening is extremely low, and especially after hearing many other factions have the same schedules every week its not just a coincedence, the matchmaking just sucks right now, its not random at all.
