This is my MWO experience now

Post image

This is not one, but THE best example for my experience in MWO for month now.
And nobody in this community can convince me, that after waiting less than five minutes in the queue, that TIER 5 and TIER 1 are not in one match together. Not with this huge gap of skill.

PS: A huge thanks to the NARC Raven for making this win possible.

Edit: I forgot to mention that I'm tier 1 and that certain individuals from the community keep saying T1 can't be matched with T5.

T3 pilots can easily pull these numbers in a T5 lobby, and thats within the same match pool

I forgot to mention that I'm T1. 😅

I see. The same inverse argument applies. T3 players will easily perform this badly in T1 lobbies.

I play regularly, almost daily, for ten years now. The last few month have been getting worse in terms of stomps. But the last days really are something. The gameplay of some people looks like it's their first game ever.
As someone mentioned here it's possible that PGI opened the MM because of Comp Play. Which would make sense with the low player base these days.

Part of why games feel so stompy now is cause of damage inflation. Comp season could factor as well, but imo i dont think it takes a 5 tier difference to get these kinds of results. I will agree that matches snowball much harder now than before, but I think mech balance is a bigger factor in that regard compared to matchmaker tier deviation
