"Was that match fun? Y/N"

(1/4) > >>

sparklerfish:
I feel like a lot of the changes that have been made recently to try to improve speed and balance have been at odds with what I would call "qualitative player experience".

What if, if only for data collection, we had a sort of "survey" after each match, where you were asked, "Was that match fun?" and you could check "yes" or "no".

Maybe I'll be proved wrong by this and we'll see that the majority of players really do stop having fun after three rematches, but one of the biggest failures of the matchmaker in my opinion is that while it is theoretically excellent at amassing and analyzing numbers, it cannot ask the extremely important question of whether or not players are enjoying themselves.  It cannot analyze the personalities of the players in the lobby and see if they are people I would like playing with.  It can't tell if maybe I actually still enjoyed a match even if my team got stomped.

Qualitative ≠ quantitative.

Hoja Lateralus:
I like that idea but it's not enough. I'd think more like:

Was that match fun? Y/N?

If not, what was the main reason:
a) balance
b) crewmembers (skills)
c) crewmembers (personal matters)
d) game mode*
e) something else [       ] <-place for answer

I try to avoid matchmaker at all costs.

sparklerfish:
I think some people might get annoyed at having to fill out something lengthier (even if it's one extra multiple-choice question), but I would totally be okay with that.

And I suppose you wouldn't necessarily HAVE to answer it; just have it be there to answer if you want to share your feedback.

Hoja Lateralus:
I guess just in options "Do you want to give feedback about your matches? Y/N" kinda thing.

Yeah, in my opinion those reasons matter. It's completely different having a bad time because of that one lvl1 second gunner who decides to shoot flares all the time and having a bad time because your shipmates are 20-ish lvl and enemies are 45-ish lvl and you just get stomped 12:0 in a 4v4...
