We're on the last leg of another rough war for a Top-50 syndicate. We can barely keep players in our syndicate because of the amount of frustration our players have at our matchups.
Its been miserable day in and day out having to put 20-40 of our members on the same 3 players, decreasing all of our influence points. It's a royal waste of money when some of us buy vaults and face horribly low influence points despite bonuses because we all have to hit the same target.
When we recruit players, we have to recruit players who need to be able to compete well above their weight in stats because we won't even face other Top-50s.
Every Monday morning we have 1-2 players who just can't take it anymore. Too angry at not getting shot a fair one, we have to continually replace players and tell them pretty lies that next war they will have targets. Its not fair to anyone.
When will things be fair again?
We will match up against Peace & Love repeatedly before we even face another team around our same rank. We're tired of seeing repeats against Bones. You would rather give us SAS multiple times before getting a fair match. These are great syndicates, full of great players, but there is no reason why we should be getting matched up with them over and over again.
Its entertaining the first time we face these Top-3 syndicates, "wow look at the IP they're dropping on us" but when we match with them again and again and again and again it leads to nothing but frustration with this broken system.
This is wrong. Your matching system prefers to repeat a mismatched battle before it even puts us against a team in our own range.
I'm not asking to avoid these Top syns, I'm asking to stop repeating these matchups.
Its also not fair to the Top-10 syns who don't get us. When a top syndicate faces us they get a much better opportunity to accumulate IP than if they were facing a syndicate their own rank.
And no chance will we ever face a Team in the 100-150 range, not even once, no, that would be too nice.
We really like playing at this rank, it's not overly expensive, and gives us the prizes we can be proud of. We have college kids who love this game but can't afford to dump all of their gold the ONE time we get a fair matchup. It tends to be the young guys and young girls we have to kick for this reason, even though they CAN truly afford to compete in this rank.....if they were given a fair battle. Please make these matchups fair again. I know the chance of success of this message getting through is terribly low, but it's worth a shot. Do it for the kids.
