World War Matchmaking Changes

[Thevinegru]

Yeah, the developers were so intent on copying CoC, it never occurred to them that the matchmaking in that game is horrible. That's what happens when all you can do is copy other peoples' work and not use your brain.

Match-ups have improved for us at Our Home..As the change has been significant I'm assuming some changes were made rather than it being just luck. It's been better recently anyway

 

[Jedi Kurt]

Jinxed unstikied lol

 

[NordBoeeren]

Can you please change back whatever you did with the matchmaking? My clan has not had even one WW with fair odds after you « fixed» the problems.

 

[dexxtrose]

We have had four times in a row wars with 0 glory points in case of losing. So we had no chance, total missmatch.
Why can glory points be calculated correct while the matchmaking still ain‘t work? Use that glory point algorithm for better matchmaking...

 

[dexxtrose]

Five times in a row now.

 

[Blaster Maximus]

We have lost ten wars with 1000 to signle digit odds. Its a waste to continue warring.

 

[Imaera]

Did anyone notice any difference in matchmaking and/or glory distribution since the last update?

 

[astero]

matches should be made by total number of levels of all combatants per team

I'm starting to think that on a 10 vs 10 player war, only the top 5 players on each team should be ranked when finding a match, with the rest being completely irrelevant.

This way the bottom 5 wouldn't be deliberately weak bases that cannot contribute much to a war with a very powerful top 5.

 

[LordAnubis]

So if a player chooses not to attack you are saying ban them? That is the stupidest idea I have ever heard. Thats a clan leaders responsibility to deal with slackers not Nexon's.

 

[Loonies]

The bottom 5 useless bases contribute almost nothing to the match score, so it is almost working like you said already.

 

[Imaera]

Ok, our first war after the update, with matchmaking and glory distribution fixed, looks like this. Good job, Nexon, as always!

 

[Loonies]

You must have a lot more glory than they do?

 

[Patrick Bardet]

The matchmaking is again more screwed than ever, same problem as Romania NBC. In our current war, we have CW 241, 234, AA 220 and in front of us: GA 170 AA 178 GA 176. And it is not a sandbagging issue as they have 7 lowers players (2 Medevial, 5 gunpowers) and we have also 7 lowers players (1 Medevial, 6 Gunpower)

I think Nexon appeased the wrong people when dealing with this issue initially. Now there has been a great deal of attrition (whether from the game entirely or just from wars) due to mismatches (and other problems, among which being it is much harder to get the resources to war back to back and remain competitive) and now there are just less alliances searching. Less alliances searching means more mismatches.

It is now past 5pm here, so they are gone for the weekend. Feel free to post completely uncensored because they won't get to it until Monday. Just say the first words that come to mind.
