Problems with matchmaking

Richard LeMoon:
If I am looking for a fun match, I join on friends. If I am looking for funny screenshots, I use matchmaking.

You have to get everyone to add one person to join on then get them to join on them. When setting up multiple matches, you have to have multiple people. So your bumbling screen names + passwords and hoping people don't have trouble navigating the menus. Its the epitome of...before just one or two steps to make it happen...now, 4-5 steps. Adding to that all the problems that potentially crop up on top of that.

yeah it'd be really nice if crew form had a [custom match] option, so the leader of the crew form can take the whole crew into a match they create or one of their friend's matches/a tourney match - if pw protected, the pw goes through for all crew form.
and I also think one crew form should be able to join into another crew form and combine.

I saw a post by Keyvais In the guns steam group: http://steamcommunity.com/app/209080/discussions/0/613940477936300679/?tscn=1415038511

Hey Cat Mage,

What level are you in-game?

Right now we're seeing at lower levels the flamethrower is overpowered and at higher levels it's a bit weak. We're about to have a hotfix go up to split the high and low levels a bit more so hopefully you should see quite a few less.

Just let me know though.
Thanks!

I was/am one that thinks that splitting the pool will help with the stacked lobbies...pretty sure it will...but Geo raises a very good point. Once the new player surge leaves after the sale will we have enough players to have split pools? Also, another question that came to mind was will Veterans still be able to be in low level lobbies for reasons of teaching? This is such a hard problem to have the right fix for.

We have Teacher and CA/mod status for that, I think.

That would be a nice feature

Yes there is (which I keep forgetting to ask for the teacher one), BUT that means every high level player that just wants to help out random low levels would have to apply for one of those status. I guess not a huge problem but it is much easier to teach 1 low level on a ship with 3 other players knowing what they are doing opposed to 3 low levels with 1 high level teaching. AND LOBBIES ARE NOT LONG ENOUGH TO TEACH IN!!!!!!
