lol NO! the devs took it out for a reason. The matches will still highlight red if there is an unbalance.

It's intended. whatever drugs made you come up with that i want some of those... seriously tough, finding a somewhat balanced game is pretty much impossible at the moment. this whole bullshit with the launcher is ruining all the fun. |

At least get rid of the 0% if you intend on not showing it, now it just looks broken.

I agree I really do not like this hidden system. the ANTS system works fine without that crap.

Um, games have the same chances of being marked unfair no matter what the launcher shows.

Yes except now people have no idea who they are playing against. All that does is make me not want to play with new people because I might have to go against a good team. I would be willing to play with newer people if I could find a balanced game to do that instead of having to guess. Atleast let us see the percent, if not their names. Otherwise all youll have is wasted time as people will simply not join the games, regardless of whatever "harsh" penalties you put in effect.

Listen, ANTS & the hidden feature (of %'s too) go hand and hand, and are only the pre-cursor to an Automatch system that we'll soon be implementing. The only players that dislike this system should be those that think the fairness percentage difference is too high, or don't like playing fair games.
Edit: You will find balanced games thru the ANT system based on the % difference in each teams win loss (or their rating with Automatch).

I think it should display the team's overall % when everyone on your team is in, that way you'll at least be able to compare win %s without knowing the personal %s and thus without the discrimination of higher & lower win %s.
Also, I don't see an automatch system working in with our small playerbase, worth a shot but I'm pretty skeptic about it.

The fairness % is too high, 30% is a huge margin. It needs to be more like 15-20% if the teams are gonna be hidden.
Which is also a double edged sword, the lower the margin goes the harder it is to find games. I liked the 30% margin with being able to see names, I do not like it without names because all that does is help the stackers.

Our playerbase is just fine for automatch. Its not differant than what we have now, in fact I think it will actually speed up the process of finding games. |

Not if you intend on playing games with the people you actually want to play games with.... AKA arranged team autmatch, which is much more popular & enjoyable than regular automatch. With a 30% - 35% difference ratio both the higher & the lower tier players will likely have a hard time finding games.

Arranged team would work the same way now as well, and again would actually speed up the process. People wont be able to avoid your game, 2 teams join the automatch if their % margin works the game starts. Theres no, oh shit its unkown and duvka lets leave and find an easier game to play. Of course with everything hidden now its basically the same thing.

Yes there is because it doesn't force you into loading a COH game like Relic arranged automatch.
It'll tell you the teams when everyone readies up, then they can still be a bitch and bail out just like in the current system.
It really wouldn't be much of a difference from our current system to be honest.

From what I understand when you join the automatch fldash is talking about your team or you automatically ready up, once it finds a suitable opponant the game just starts and all you gotta do is click yes to download and yes to start the game. Then you join the game as normal.
Hense there is no bailing. Its eather play the game or abandon at that point.

Just like now, abandon = bail.
It will always have to tell you who you're facing once everyone readies up, else it's impossible to actually find those players online.... Our current system really doesn't differ from this envisioned 'automatch' that much.

Abandons are being tracked and we have a system planned to punish those who abandon games beyond reason...
