Grixis:
Charity Tournament Update!

The battles are done and the dust is starting to settle. So far we’ve raised $15,848 for four great causes.  If you’ve like to see the battles, check out the teams, and check out their charities: click here!
We’ll keep you up to date on how much we’ve raised for charity!

Changes:
- Novice levels have been changed to level 1-7.
- Non-novice players will no longer be sent to novice matches, regardless of wait time. This means novice matches will no longer be turned into normal matches.
- When novice players wait in queue for more than 2 minutes, they will have the option to join normal matches. If they do, they may get into any normal match. If they don't, they may need to wait, but will not face non-novice players.
- Matchmaker will now value balanced matches more, as well as some additional balance enforcements. Players will be less likely to be sent to unbalanced matches, unless we deem that they have waited too long.
- System made matches (including custom matches that recruit from queue) will have an upper limit of 3 rematches, which will down by per rematch. If there are no more rematches, the end match vote will be replaced by an alert message, and everyone will return to lobby as crew forms. This will give the queue more people to draw from while still allowing players to rematch against great opponents.
- Player level in chat message will be the max level (of 3 classes), rather than current class level.

Fixes:
- Some base system changes, which would allow the bounty event to show up again.
- Bug fix that caused captain in queue to be sent to crew slot or to a full lobby.
- Teaching achievement 8 was bugged, players should now be able to to track and earn "play X minutes with level 1-12 players" now.
- Ship theme objects stuck in the air randomly are now gone.
- Wrong language in Andrew Howell (Fyraxis) voice pack has been fixed
- Image for Desert Scrap has been fixed
- Custom match list scroll bar now scales proportionally to number of listed matches.
- Spotting visibility check reverted to less restrictive 1.3.7 behavior (yes it’s still occasionally weird)

Good job adding another thing that NOBODY ASKED YOU TO, NOBODY WANTS, AND THE MAJORITY WILL HATE.

'we'll let you have some fun with friends after organising your own lobby with "great opponents", but this time we'll dump you back into the cesspit of matchmaking to play shit games again.'
Recruit from queue was your one saving grace from the last patch.

FORCING PLAYERS TO JOIN THE SHITTY NON-WORKING MATCHMAKING QUEUE AFTER THEY'VE PUT TIME IN TO MANUALLY CREATE THEIR OWN GOOD LOBBIES IS NOT FUN. I DON'T WANT TO HAVE TO REMAKE A LOBBY EVERY THREE GAMES GOD DAMN IT.  IF YOU ARE GOING TO ULTIMATELY FORCE YOUR BROKEN MATCHMAKING UPON THE PEOPLE WHO NEVER WANTED IT AND THE PEOPLE WHO WARNED YOU IT WOULDN'T WORK BEFORE YOU EVEN STARTED THIS VENTURE I'M SURE THEY WILL STOP PLAYING AND STOP RECOMMENDING THIS GAME TO THEIR FRIENDS. YOU WILL LOSE THE FEW PLAYERS YOU DID MANAGE TO KEEP PLAYING AND WILL BE LEFT WITH A NON ACTIVE COMMUNITY OF COD PLAYERS THAT ONLY JOIN WHEN YOU CUT THE GAMES PRICE DOWN TO NOTHING AND LAST NO LONGER THAN A WEEK.

DON'T BE SHORT SIGHTED, just because you dump us out of the lobby doesn't mean for one second we're going to join the pleb tier queue, all you're doing is pissing us off by forcing us to remake games. Thanks.

Good job IGNORING US and not displaying the levels in lobby again.

FFS Muse, why are you trying so hard to make people hate this amazing game?

So when will EVERYTHING be reverted to less restrictive 1.3.7 behavior?
