OwO (no luck so far but will keep trying)
getting games!!! best patch in the last 2 years
Update #1.5.7:
New bugs found…
Executing…
To be quite honest I literally never PvP in a squad so I have no clue what it was like before nor what it is like now… sooo… anyone else have a verdict on this one? Any limitations or anything?
Nice lies about new multiple tier PvP MM.
No sound of this. I bet 75% will love it.

At least they decreased the low rank buffs.

That’s not enough! They need to remove all of them!
I can’t find 1.5.7 discussion, so I’m posting it here.
It appears that automatic afterburners key has been removed. Instead, there’s now an option to have them always on.
I am not sure why it was done, but I used auto-after key quite often, I would like to see it back.

Yeah the auto-afterburner toggle was removed in the update and was furthermore in the patch notes. Honestly I think the function in the options for it too should have been removed with the update too, so it may have been an oversight.

same screenshot on my side R9 and R7 hip as well
What exactly did you improve?
Hot joining when an enemy is caping third beacon is always nice
Why couldn’t I start from the start? Why was hot joining needed? We had 8 vs 8 after one min.
Why do I have to start 7 from 8 games with Hot joining?
Really, I’m glad that some 25% of people enjoy this new game changes, but what about of 75% of “minority”?
It would be better if you improved this:
I don’t know why isn’t in this game any project really completed.
Instead of working on something until it is finished here is like mad house. Let’s do this ah now little of that (half done) Eh now we will try this and so on.
If you would build house it would look like this ;
-
three walls instead of four
-
four windows instead of seven
-
doors without of handle
-
roof that has just one side completed
-
…
and after all this, you would ask customer how does it look? And even when customer would say it is not good you would still pretend that everything is fine…
I really don’t understand, I’m trying really and can’t get it.
Okay then… so after actually trying out the " improved" squad MM, it’s fairly easy to see at this point it isn’t working as intended. When attempting to queue with a 4 man squad we sat in queue for close to 10 minutes before calling it quits. Afterwards however when queueing with a 2 man squad I found a battle within 3 minutes.
I’m not too sure how the squad MM quite functions but when Koro and I did eventually find a battle we were uh… pitted against DeleteD and another ESB member, both armed to the teeth with meta gear come suite with energy converter (that broken pile of sh*t is a topic for another day), basically ensuring the battle was as one sided as possible.
I’m still not sure whether this was just bad luck or the squad MM functions on something so basic you can be paired against a group with such a gigantic skill gap but something is definitely up.

Low-Rank Guards with all those nice uber “decreased” buffs 
I don’t know why do you guys complain we had poll about MM just last week. Why do you complain??
ahh, right it was [trolling poll](< base_url >/index.php?/topic/37641-new-matchmaking-method/&page=5&tab=comments#comment-429487) about tiers and MM, sorry bad luck then.
