Bug with the Dread's matchmaker

Hello, i’m “ItalianBadBoy” of the corporation “Tricolore Italia”.

 

We lost “Defence Forces” without could defend it; 16 October 2015 at 15:00 (UTC +1 Rome).

The following phenomenon has happened, on the Federation’s sector “Water Harvest”, with these steps:

  • Announcement of attack: The attackers engage the attack.
  • Registration of attacker: The attackers didn’t execute the registration or leave from combat immediately after this step.

After this  we can see the message: “Attackers did not show up. Fighting concluded.”

and we couldn’t do the registration of the defender’s team.

  • The “No opponent” are replaced with other players that will perform the attack.
  • If the “No opponent” will win they will do the damage to the sector.

The result is that we lost the 20% without being able to defend it.

I don’t know, with certainty, if this is an other bug or if the enemy didn’t show up.

 

The following phenomenon has happened, the 18 October 2015 at 20:38 (UTC +1 Rome), on the Empire’s sector “Felony Border”,

with these steps:

  • First stage: the match took place normally.
  • Second stage: the opponents “did not show up”.

There have been a lot of bugs recently, especially in dreadnoughts. Regarding your first one, that is simply because solo-queueing for the dreadnought battle takes place after both attackers and defenders registration. So it is likely that people solo-queued for the attacks and did the damage.

 

Regardless, a corp should be able to defend their sector from any damage it may take. There should be a second defender’s registration after the solo-queueing (that only happens if solo-queued pilots are placed onto the attacking slot of your sector), or put the solo-queueing in between attack and defense registration.
