fix? please?

I basically have to play a handicap match bringing only 4 mechs (and only 2 properly geared) instead of 5 to find opponents with similar level of gear and upgrades. There's some bug with the 5000 team power threshold. If I go beyond that, like 5100 for example, the game puts me against players way higher than 5000, with full shield slots level 4+ and mech\weps 16 maxed out

It's not a bug it is game design. They want you to feel you need to upgrade to match their power. The free way is a long and painful process. So to bypass the long drawn out pain, they let you spend real money to upgrade. The catch is unless you max everything out you will still run into the same situation you are currently in. Commonly  referred to as P2W. 

Exactly what Band said. Plarium sucks and the fix the matches forcing you to upgrade, but its an endless battle cause the moment you do they up the power of the other mech so you are right back in the same situation 

They wont they say they do it this way to make matches harder, but what they do know and 100% ignore is the fact that most bots can not be beaten at all and commonation of that and whales and there drop hangers to purposely face easier targets makes things like control point clash almost impossible to play. All i ever do is loose now and i can not even get the dailys done that we do during  the game and the game is no longer fun anymore, but plarium knows these problems and ignore it because it makes whale and only whales happy so as long as they are happy thats all that matters to them and is facts there actions proves everything 

I found out that the problem with the (intentonally?) idiot matchmaking is my howler 12 wep.

That's the first and only wep I upgraded to 6* to have dual 12 wep. If I equip this wep on one of my mech, the game automatically puts me against bots that have full 6* mech, 6* 12 to 16 weps and full shields slot level 4 or higher.

Basically the game says oh you have a 6* weapon now? I'll put you right into the endgame.

Ignoring that all other stuff I have on my other mechs are rank 4* to 5*. The game design here is total s*it really. So you earn resources, credits, coin, you can finally upgrade one weapon that you like...but you cannot use it because the game will put you in endgame for just having one 6* weapon.

This is so profoundly stupid, that it has to be intentional, there's no other explanation
