Matchmaking feedback thread
With 5.0 we've added a new matchmaking feature for more competitive play. The system is still very much in development and I'd like to get community feedback on how we can make it better.
Here are a couple categories of things that have been brought up, to get the conversation started (Feel free to add new things, though):
- Season length - currently set to 1 month, suggested 3
- # of games played - currently BO3
- Calculating global/category rank - currently elo is by mods and I think global rank is an average
- Appropriate penalty for leaving matchmaking games
Below I'll try to compile the suggestions I receive:
- Custom win/loss icons (In place of the current x/o)
- Change selection icons to empty square / checkbox
- Match history
- Better notification/confirmation for matchmake
Known issues:
- Elo penalty is applied to both users - should be fixed in next patch
- Some users reporting that matchmaking isn't properly connecting them to a private room, instead moving them to a lobby with multiple players queued
- Matchmaking seems to be selecting grappling regardless of category(s) selected
- Matchmaking is not pausing while playing a fight
- Matchmaking sometimes skips replay and goes straight to next fight
- Grab status persisting between matchmaking fights, even if mod changes to one without grab
