Will Matchmaking ever get patched?

Post » Wed May 15, 2013 10:48 pm

You know every single time I'm trying to get into a match no matter what game mode it is there are lobbies being created that shouldn't be created at all and makes players quit thinking that there aren't enough players when there is.

Example to keep it simple: I'll go to crashsite/spears and see that there is 10 players and 1 game active (makes sense) so when I join it should make me the 11th player and connect me to that game, but instead it creates a new lobby were I'm sitting all alone. So it now reads as 11 players 2 games......stupid right!

No new games/lobbies should be allowed to be created unless the player count goes over 12. And no one would be sitting in some empty lobby that shouldn't have been created in the first place.

Every game mode does this which is really a huge reason (in addition to the hosting problems) why people give up for the night or have left all together.

What does it take to patch matchmaking? Could it be D patched?

I see what you are saying although I believe the reason why it may not put you into that lobby of 11 players and instead makes a new lobby for you is due to Latency.

If the host to that lobby is quite far away then I believe the match making is always trying to give the best latency possible so it makes a new lobby.
Also with Crytek tweaking the bandwidth down a bit may be this as effected the results?.

Like you though I really do not know and the above may be totally wrong,let us hope a member of Crytek may be able to shed more light onto this subject.
