    New matchup algorithm- and wait times ridiculous

    Once again nice job of rolling out a new plan Gree. Change matchup algorithm, seems to be only match teams +\- 15 positions. So if none of them are declaring we wait 10,15,20 minutes for a matchup. But no change to streak or total wins needed, congrats on latest way to screw the game up. Teams I've talked to declaring continuously have only been matched 20-27 times in 32 hours of war so far, some won't even make 50 matchups much less 50 wins. NICE job once again.👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

    Gree won't care much about the streaks or delays. They set the streaks so high in beyond the dead for my team that we needed 67 wins to hit the top streak reward in only 72 hrs. We managed but it came down to the wire for us. 50 wins in 72 hrs seems so much easier here

    Matchups for us are pretty sweet this time around.. no complaints from my team in MW

    We just finished battle 31...we normally do 64-66 battles per WD. Don't see any changes in match times.

    Hmmm ok maybe it's just us and teams I normally talk to. Can I ask where your two teams normally place? Top ?

    The matchups are pretty f*kked. End of story.

    P/S: A few teams didn't get screwed that's true but a majority of teams are hoping to see the end of this f*kked up event.

    I've noticed WDs have been getting harder. We are being matched up with faction higher than our tier.

    Match ups are way off....at least for us they are. We shouldnt have ever been matched up with SUP, but it happened.

    We haven't had a matchup complaint for several WDs. We see top 25 and top 400, at the extremes usually once a WD after a longer wait +5. But we are usually within 50 of our rank.

    15 minutes wait per declaration.

    Not to mention the sh1tty point system, no gold sale and the utter contempt gree show their paying customers.

    My minis team is outside of top500 and so far had SUP twice and currently battling another team inside top15. Something is very wrong with this new algorithm. Occasionally in the past a weak team may see a top50 team but now it's a regular occurrence.

    Our match ups are all over. We rank 127 atm and have had sup, 2 other top 25s, and then top 500 teams. Hardly fighting anyone around our current rank. Wait times are between 3-7 minutes

    They made this matchup worse my team is ranked 350 and we keep getting top 100 faction and even the same top 25 faction twice. If it was not for this we would be ranked top 250.

    This isn't being done by Gree, people. The matchups you're experiencing have to do with the decline in active participants. Check the lowest ranked team on the board. Last time I looked, it wasn't over 4,000. Add in the fact that fewer and fewer that do participate aren't tapping for 70 hours sold. Most are paying an hour or two, then stepping away to pursue other things for 8-10 hours. Add in the start of high school, college, and professional football, the US Open Championships, and a NASCAR Race; many people have learned to choose their entertainment wisely.
    It's easier to fool people than to convince them that they have been fooled.
