Mother1 -> RE: Matchmaking is the most fundamental element of balance (10/23/2014 9:16:49)

The problem with match making now is that there aren't enough players to go around as well as the legion vs exile filter.
The filter I mentioned pairs what side you are on before what level the players are so if you have 2 level 40's and 2 level 37's if both level 40's are legion, and the 37's are exile instead of 40 and 37 vs 40 and 37 you will get the level 40's fighting the level 37's because of this. The first thing that needs to be done is have this filter 100% removed.
Now putting the filter aside the other reason why matchmaking is so awful as I pointed out is that there aren't enough players to go around. The matchmaker will always try to pair you off against someone on your level first. However after a certain period of time if it can't find anyone then it will go up or down levels until it can find a match.
This is done so that the person who is trying to get a match can get one.
Many players in the past have suggested removing or cutting the level range for more fair fights but the problem with this is that in the process of this wait times will go up due to isolation, and in some cases matches won't be gotten at all especially during non peak hours when the servers have a population as low as 100-300 players.
