Well, just to register here, The MM is bad again… Longer waiting times (despite their efforts changing back to mixed tiers). Now as Mapoko posted on another subforum, with T3 he got pitted against ppl with mauler (T5). Basically, forced the entire playerbase to fly T3’s R8’s so they dont encouter T5’s and/or T4 squads.
Mauler is r12 from matchmaking stand point
I remember when you could face r15s in t3 squad. Ahhh good old days 
Even though the tiers are mixed agian, it’s literally impossible to encounter a T5 ship. And the T4 you’re going to find are randoms.
If the squad is 3 or less people you can keep using R9.

It clearly shows that one of the enemies is flying a Mauler (T5)

The MM has been changed since. Shouldn’t be possible in the current incarnation.
Any way MM really sucks atm…I don’t like last changes ata all…
MM really doesn’t work for solo palyers atm… It was alot better b4 last changes. Fix it.

I feel your pain as I played solo in a bunch of games this past couple of days against full fledge (4man) Top Corp teams. Unfortuantly when your side is spread 3 sheets into the wind going everywhere well lets say the results are going to be predictable. Like it or not this is part of the ‘TEAM’ concept of this game. These teams know how to support each other and utilize every tool at thier disposal to focus on the objectives.
Now when you have TEAMS that are not focusing on objectives are out to just ‘FARM’ kills … that is completely different and will drive many people out of the game.
The best fun was getting a full, 4 man squad of T4 ships when flying R9 4-man squad. I know squadding bumps up your MMR, but this was annoying.
yop, we queued as squad of 4 all T2&T3 and got a squad of 4 with all T4. can’t complain, tho. we still won.
at the same time we lost being a squad of 4 against a full random solo team in a bigger fight (mostly coz we got weaker randoms).
i have a hard time pinpointing my criticism at this point. i still think, just because a squad has 4 people does not make them better automatically, so i had no problems of mixing squads of 4 against e.g. multiple smaller squads (there was a thread complaining about that);
waiting times are sometimes as crazy as i really miss to sometimes being mixed against my own corpmates (the MM seems to put us in separate games if we make small squads and are in the same queue, as if we wouldnt have fun killing each other…)
so sometimes i really don’t understand the decisions behind the algorithm, whatever it may be.
i prefer unfair games with more people coming fast however, instead of a magic MM anyway. tier mixing, squads of 4, etc. lose a lot of momentum in 12v12 respawn-games, it’s the smaller games which become unfair fast or tier mixed realistics.
The squad is the current king of sec con, but it will eventually lose that to the wing i think.
server maintenance, changes are being applied. any thoughts on what is to come when the servers are back up?
Good question. I hope they fix the contract bug and the servers will be back up soon.
Odd, I just logged back in. They appear to be up now. I guess they just needed a reboot … maybe memory overflow from too many vouchers last weekend 
What are the steps to get the contracts credited to our accounts? I’m missing at least 59400 vouchers …

yrah… MM is really weird atm…In T5 looks completely broken… getting 3 vs 3 or 4 vs 4 most of the time with very unbalnced matches. I dunno what they changed but players DSR during match preview clearly reveal that MM is absolutely broken! Pls fix the MM the way it was before last changes 
I wasn’t able to get a balanced MM in t5 in a whole week!
And pls…A squad should be matched ONLY vs another squad!!! Unless u r a T3 squad and can be matched vs random T4 player with similar ratings…This is a balanced MM.
And what’s teh problem with ping… During last week it was always around 100…(I 'm from Italy)
