I think this game could use somekind of 'season' ranking system, they calculate it from your overall KDA and then match you - then you have own season KDA they continue to keep through the season, only for it to reset and start again. The current MMR system is just not good with the handouts.

the "3 star who belongs in 4-5" seems to be a thing, but rare, i think what explains us is just the retard-tier incompetence of randoms and it seems that playing randoms gives you a weaker MMR range than playing pre-mades somehow.
everyone who has these stats seems to play aggressively, but randoms never know when to push and just sit back so you get fucked by completely stupid necros, or unfortunate spawns, teammates making noise at the worst moment, etc. playing random trios for 1k hours~ i have seen such braindead shit that has me unable to comprehend why they play this game. and i always thought 5star+ would basically be 2.0KDA+

The biggest flaw in the MMR system is that it assumes a certain level of team coherency a.k.a an ability for the individule members of a team to engage in productive teamwork.
The solo (buff/nerf) to MMR placement assumes said solo will be playing against a competent and cohesive team where the numbers advantage is a very real thing.
This, in my experience is seldom the case.
For example, in a match i had earlier today I was running a shotgun, a weapon that favours agression. My teamates however were running rifles (a sprinfield and a winfield i believe.) weapons that generally speaking favour longer, less agressive engagements. So I breach the boss lair to engage and do so against two enemies my teammates are playing cautiously in the extreme and as such I am effectively playing solo. This situation is compounded by the fact that the ingame VOIP implentation whilst interesting, is dogshit for effective communication.
So if i were engaging a solo instead this would be a "fair fight" but if my teammates and I were more effectively "gelling" together it would be one vs three to our advantage.

TL;DR: The Matchmaking system overcompensates for an advantage that rarely exists ingame (especially with randoms).
>>
>>1277156
It's not why it's dogshit.
It's dogshit because math is wrong. They use inidividual's MMR to calculate the difference in skill between opponents when scoring kills instead of team's MMR. If they fixed this tiny error players would properly move to higher brackets when they perform above skill level of their matches, solo or not. But crytek is stubborn and probably malicious because instead of making proper matchmaking their goal is to divide the audience into 2 big pools to reduce matchmaking time low skill pool for newcomers to avoid waiting times, and content creators fodder pool to avoid waiting times for 6 star influencers. They don't want the middleground where 4 and 5 star could have good matches to exist, they want 5 stars to get dragged into 6 star games instead. And, well, 4 stars is a really small bracket which serves as a barrier between low skill pool and high skill pool so you don't get dragged from one to another in a single game. It's a very low margin of 150 MMR though.

I think if they don't get a Steam release by end of year this game will remain at this player count and it'll only be the autists on the merry-go-round of repetitive unexciting "dungeon-diving".

Actually have a question regarding to the PSN thingy.
I had a discussion with a friend of mine about this topic, and he told me the following:

>Why bother creating an account for that? Today you need an accound for literally anything. Reddit, Instagram, Steam, GoG, Epic Games, Ubisoft, Google. Having PlayStation in this list does not bother.

On the one hand, I don't need another company to have my data and make money from it.
On the other hand, enough companies already have my data, so why bother another one. They will have already sold my data to each other.

What do you think about this?
Is this thought wrong?
>>
>>1277720
Everyone already has a PSN account by this point. It's like not having a Driver's Licence.
>>
>>1277749

No. That's not correct.
I don't have a PSN account, because I don't have a playstation.

We thought of this idea on /v/ to play through random niche and obscure MMOs we vote on. Preferably games that 4chan hasn't already played together so the experience for everyone is the same. The rules are:
>vote on a game
>whichever gets the most votes gets played
>make a dedicated general for the game on /vg/ and play it for a month
>end of the month vote a new game
Feel free to suggest more games be added to the list and suggest rule changes.

OP I think a better format would be we play a game that gets the highest amount of votes for 2 weeks then after that 2 weeks we play the game with the 2nd most votes. Then repeat. That way we can get through games faster and people who didn't have their pick win gets a guarantee afterwards.

It's such a shame because it's a cool game but the controls are just max jank. At least with a controller you can get right stick camera controls but even the rebinding is jank because you gotta pick from a list of buttons and they might vary from gamepad to gamepad and the rebinding is done outside the game.
>>
Enjoyers of niche titles may present your games to me for review and observation, as I am fond of the late 2000s and early 2010s when a new MMO came out every other week, finding new random titles off random MMO lists off random MMO websites and downloading betas off fileplanet.

Balancing around 9x2 isn't worth it though, that's a moot argument. IIRC by ghost ship's own admission only something like 5% (10% at best) of the active playerbase even plays haz 5 with any regularity (not just dipping into it for deep dives/achievements) and most of them are quite bad at it, you can see the quality of public haz 5 lobbies. Some smaller percentage of that plays modded haz 6 and haz 6x2 because you actually see lobbies for it in the public browser with some regularity.

Shit like haz 9x2 caters to probably like 0.001% of all active players. If your entire argument is,
>overpowered feature X is actually so damn good that it's an absolute requirement to play at a difficulty that was never actually meant to be played or balanced around and that only a handful of people in the world play
then that's a silly stance to take. If anything that proves my point more, shit lets poor players blast through earlier haz's they would not have gotten through otherwise on other classes and shit up the part of the game that most active players do actually play.

>>1277543
>Shitters are gonna stay shitters, they're not magically going to git gud just because the grappling hook gets nerfed.
They're not going to stick it out if they keep going down 20x every mission as a result. They'll lower their haz, and stay there until they get better. And again, I'm not saying that this should in any way shape or form be implemented now. If it had been like this from the start, those players would have simply not have gone to higher hazards to begin with, they'd have learned the game and got good, got good enough to stay in lower hazards and stay there, or just quit.
