Ok, so let me begin by saying I very much enjoy the game, that's why I continue to play. However, this match-making is absolutely terrible, why am I getting matched against people 20+ levels higher than me or people are that rank 4, literally 4 while I'm 60-something.

This is beyond stupid, the game should match based on level, period. Rank and items shouldn't mean anything in matching because being matched by level fixes that.

Please focus priority on fixing this.


I have played and beaten people over level 100, while at or below level 30. This is because a level 100 player in a level 20 mech fights at level 20.

Saying 'if your saying its not fair, he's better player than me so he won' you do realize that is self contradiction? Of course a better player should beat you most times, how else xcould be fair?

Completely disagree with you there.

The game should be (and is) matched on item/rank, because
-Item/rank actually indicates how powerfull an opponent is. Level has no correlation to strength at all, so matching on level would result in a lot of unfair/mismatched battles.
-There is less dispersion amongst rank, than levels (meaning it's easier/quicker to find opponents).
-There are far fewer players at higher levels, so it would penalise people who have played a lot of matches, by giving them fewer people to fight against.

And while the matchmaking isn't perfect, they have tried other ways for matchmaking, and the current method is by far the best.

Fake summed it up nicely, players should be able to play at whatever level they wish, as long as they use mech parts suitable to that level.
