The more I look at this, the less I see it being an actual change at all. Prior to 0.9.0 we had mixed tiers that were supposedly +2/-2 ranks. Then we got +3/-3 ranks and, presumably because people were seriously pissed off, we now have… +2/-2 ranks.
That’s not an improvement. That’s giving us something less bad than what we’ve been forced to put up with since 0.9.0. This is still not the matchmaking anyone wanted.
This “new” matchmaking system is catering to the higher Tiers. Again. T4 ships getting pitted against T3 ships and T4 mixed with T5 as if they were equal. Lovely.
Thought I’d test it, had all R11 and 1 R12 recon. Was put into rank 43 queue and put up in a 1v1 vs player with full T5s.
Obviously it’s hard to say if anything positive has changed due to low numbers, I count 961 online atm and the queue graph is dead for T4+. Just thought
I’d confirm T4/5 mixed tiers still exist in-case anyone was confused by the patch notes (I was).
Refer to the illustration provided by antibus, that’s your best bet.

As soon as you equip a R12, you go to T5. It was like that before as well. Read again my explanation on page 2.
so its equal as before, lvl 12 ships, wich u guys call R12 or whatever, goes with tier 5, and i guess tier 4 matches also will be done with tier 5, and lowest tier 4 should go with tier 3 matches, old news guys

I figured and nah I didn’t read it the first time man I don’t need to… It’s that one sentence that brought me to the assumption that T4 would be solely T4. “There is no intermediate queue between Tier 4 and Tier 5.”
However it means that T4 R12 are in the T5 queue, mhm, which imo is utter tripe but whatever.
can u tell me what is dreadnought? i’ve looked it up in google but could’nt find the answer, plz explain a little!
Oh, come on.
They’re HUGE ships, basically carriers. No, you don’t get to drive one, but you’ll get to have one on your side if you’re in a big and active enough corporation.

It looks like you have been flying a R12 ship. This puts you on par with both T4 and T5 games.
In theory and a game with enough players in T4, it should put you in a T4 game with a 50/50 chance, depending on how good your stats are. The better your stats, the more likely your max rank ship will advance to next tier (as you’ve outgrown your current opposition with your max rank ships you are considered “too strong” for them).
connection bug noticed for every player, in almost every match i have been in 2-3 players is still in “Loading” before they spawn when its just that they recieved this message like me.
this error message when game puts ships into combat without bringing the player too.
