Anyone else frustrated?

The Matching System sucks in this game. We should be matched to nearby nations by level and age, not medal count and age. I'm in the iron age with about 700 medals and only level 22, yet I keep getting matched with people in the classical age and even higher ages than me, and civilizations way too advanced compared to my Iron Age. They match me with people at level 65, even 80 once or twice. I can click "next match" about 30 times and still be matched over and over with the same class of people

If I'm being matched with people according to my medal count, then how come when I find someone worthy enough to attack, I only come out with 5 medals or 6 WITH THE 5 STARS. If it's by medal count, why do I recieve such a low amount of medals from them? Yet when others attack me, they take 12 medals or more, sometimes even 18. Is anybody else experiencing this complete manure? Anybody else think we should be matched by LEVEL instead of medal count?

If we match by LEVEL, many ppl will not build anything in their base and spam pvp to claim to the top

 

[FirelordJoelle]

Well there has to be something done about it, because it can't continue being ridiculous the way that it is. Maybe include people our level and a few levels up, by like 5. And it doesn't even have to include just those in your same age, but also the one above you,

But it's completely insane to be matched to someone already in the Enlightenment age when you're only in the Iron Age or in Classical.

It makes playing the game not even worth it, because now the league bonuses are even lamer because no crowns, the waiting times for things are drastic, and then also the fact that others take so many medals from me and I only take a handful? What's the point in playing then if I can't even attack anyone?

 

[Whatwhat]

Why do you want medals? I spend a good amount of time trying to lose them. So that I can smash the noobs

 

[FirelordJoelle]

Dude because...because... I just like the feeling of gaining my way to the top even if it's worth nothing but I really like the way the league medals look. ;-;

 

[firedancer]

It is ok. Just build up your army and revenge them.

 

[Mizzo]

Why would you even climb up to 700 medals at iron age? it doesnt even make sense. And even if your suggestion would go through and get matched up against only iron aged players since you're in iron age.... how would that actually even work? u'd get even more frustrated trying to find players to attack.

I did the mistake and went up 700-800 medals at classical age and made a thread about it and WhatWhat suggested me too focus on building the nation before trying to compete with higher leveled players, and drop down in medals. Beside the game would be pretty stupid if you can climb to the top at the earliest stage in game lol and have it easy.
My suggestion, if you have a great amount of time to play, keep attacking players and upgrade you walls while your other buildings are getting upgraded, you wont get far at 700, you'll have players like me zerg you're whole base for easy resources lol.

which is why they match you with higher lvl so it can be challenging. U dont want to be number 1 player while your nation look like a village. It would make no sense at all. So lower the medal, build up your nation until u can stay in high medal league.

Yeah, I already did that. And it's still happening to me because now I'm at 400 medals and people from give higher more advanced nations are still attacking me and taking 10+ plus medals so really there's no solution here. It's all the same whether at the top or bottom. The only thing is "wait to upgrade, wait to upgrade".

Or you can buy crowns

 

[FirelordJoelle]

Yeah, right, I'm also the Queen of England, lol.

 

[firedancer]

Queen of England also need to wait for upgrades to get longbowmen. No exceptions

 

[FirelordJoelle]

Well, if I was the Queen of England, I would just buy Dominations and actually listen to the people's suggestions and this game would be amazing!

400 medals in iron age, maxed will still be attacked easily by classical age players.
I'm maxed in classical at 400 medals and still being raided by strong medieval age players.
I don't think defending 100% is possible in this game.

You see, that's crazy. Why are we being attacked by people in ages way above us? I can understand me being in the Iron Age level 22 and being attacked by level 25 classical age, but levels 45 and even worse, medieval age? Why? The system is flawed there. They need to balance it somehow.

Don't defend. Put your Town Center outside the walls.

first of all...:the ages like bronze iron age pass in the blink of an eye. their baby ages. the game doesnt actually show its true colors until u get to classical. ull push through classical and when u get to medieval and see how much u have to farm ull quit. i know this because anyone already bitching in iron age is as lightweight as they come......besides that what makes u think u have any business at anything but rock bottom medal range when ur in the baby ages? drop down to where u belong and fight with other beginners.....besides that this is a war game. ull always be farmed by people one or two ages above. we all are. when u get to enlightenment age then uve earned urself a breather. until they add industrial age and all the hardcore players use crowns to immediately max out industrial age.....besides that its very difficult to defend in this game. even against players in the same age.......tldr if u have qualms about upgrading upgrading upgrading in iron age just delete the game now.

 

[dbukalski]

oh and there arent enough players in the game to make it only attack within 3 levels of u

 

[FirelordJoelle]

Tl;dr. Bad grammar makes any opinion less valued. Come back when you're finished passing English class, then talk. Alright? Cool.

Matchmaking is one of the few things in this game that Nexon/BHG has right. You should be matched based on medals, not level or age. Otherwise, I'd just stay iron age and work my way into the leaderboards. Nexon needs to improve incentives for high level players to collect medals though. That would solve most issues of players staying back just to beat down noobs for resources.
