I know the games old now and it’s obviously not your main focus, but the matchmaking is super annoying.
We know you guys tampered with it after Gears 5 released because you removed the option to vote for a map in ranked for a short time and then brought it back.
If you guys also purposely made the matchmaking worse, who knows, but if you did i think that’s pretty dirty.
There’s a tonne of people still playing and i find matches for ranked KOTH and TDM just as fast as Gears 5.
But 9 out of 10 lobbies dissolve and it takes like 40 or so minutes just for a match to successfully load.
I think you should remove all the skill based matchmaking requirements and just look at ping requirements.
So anything below 120 ping up to 1 minute search time and then the ping limit goes up until it finds people.
I don’t care who i play with just as long as i can find a match and it starts without dissolving a million times.
It really does feel like the game is dissolving lobbies on purpose though, can you guys fix this?.
Also sometimes i search quickplay on off times just to find a match and i noticed that new people never continue to join, the match just ends up full of bots. I noticed though and i have no idea if this is the case or not, but if you press start you can see a list of players. In matches that become empty and no one continues to join it always lists a bunch of players that were previously in the match. I wonder if the game thinks these players are still in the match even though they’ve left and doesn’t allow anyone else to join becomes it thinks the games full. Because when there isn’t a huge list of previous players displayed i’ve noticed people are able to join the match. No idea if that’s the case or not but something i noticed so i thought i’d mention incase.
I know Gears of War 4 isn’t even on your radar anymore but can you please fix the matchmaking dissolving issues or at least do some maintenance for ranked and look into the quickplay matches not being continuingly joinable.
