Care to elaborate? I'm guessing this is about buying tickets?

Taking an educated guess based on my experience and that of others I talk with on Discord...


It is likely the player is referring to being put into tournament matches against a player that chose to spend a lot of money to get access to high level mechs/weapons way earlier than the progress bar would allow.   It is not that uncommon to go into a match as a 1500 Squad power player and run into a 3000 squad power player that is at or even under your XP level.   Lately I've been finding myself on the good side of that equation but it's still not good becuase it pisses off the player on the losing side of that equation.

I think at some point maybe Devs had in mind every player. I have noticed as I climb tourney that a lot of matches get very hard and I can not place for A-coin. Half the time I cant place after reaching Grandmaster. Yet people complain that Newbs are up there getting all the rewards. This is not true. 

So if this was the goal to allow everyone a chance at A-coin it doesn't work.

Probably someone with such hanger is enough to dominate the whole bracket, btw his winrate is 1200/1500 with 59k experience (Zephyr requires 99k experience to unlock) so obviously this is a freaking p2w account.

It's even more advantage if the player is buying tickets and able to spend on A coins because if he's reserving his A coins for upgrades or buying mechs / weapons he's not going to have enough A coins for tickets.

I'd challenge that pilot. Good chance I'd win too.

Got it now, thanks! We're trying to keep it balanced. It's not that easy, but we're working on it 🤗

So let's study this johnwick's win rate / SQ / current rank & score in tournament (assuming he's still playing tournament to secure 1st place).

Even you win EVERY single matches with MVP you can only score 250+/- per match so it means you have to win freaking 25 matches to gain 5k score? Not including loses? Are we getting 30+/- tickets for free everyday? And with his win rate are you sure that this guy is 100% f2p?

I been facing such opponents using disc launchers / Zephyr / carbines / arc torrent 10 / etc with my BOT teammates whole day long and ended up losing matches for no reason but p2w, so did I elaborate enough?

Again, what is the guidelines of your "fair matchmaking" if I get matched with this kind of players for about 6 matches in a row and lose because a Freaking Zephyr while the best mech my team has is only Guardian?! And also teammates with such pathetic winrate? Is this what the developers call "working on it" and "the test is over"?! Might as well don't put an effort to tweak at all because this game is designed to p2w

So how long more the "working on it" gonna last? Yet you guys able to put in new events and p2w events? (Stalker crate rush)? Mind sharing even a small tip?

Please have patience, Pilot. Matchmaking is not an easy thing to tweak. We do plan to work on it further, but it's going to take more time.

Why can't you guys fix this matchmaking before go on to pilots and implants? Another options of paying to win? Btw my squad power is only 1800 and this unbalanced matches been while night and it really breaking my patience and nerves yet what I get from you are "working on it" "we understanf" "we forwarded to developers" "it's hard to tweak" yet boom, pilot nonsense that require either hugh tons of resources or buy with real cash

Hmmm not sure this is as big as a problem you make it out to be. You can do some serious damage with a defensive strat either using long arms or any of the missile-based weapons. I've passed on all the legendary weapon offers (other than the disc launchers) because line of sight weapons aren't as effective against auto-aim bots.

The issue I find at the moment is being chain emp'd, I think they need to add diminishing returns on lockdown effects.

But you cramed pilots and implants on us as soon as you could while ignoring the glairing issues that have been repeatedly pointed out to you. Can't you see why we're getting frustrated?

Mind fix this? 5 matches in a row in a day? Vs p2w whales?
