Lonewolf Kai.3682 Posted October 21, 2022 Share Posted October 21, 2022 I’m in a small guild and this time we got put in a dead server group. It’s literally outnumbered in the middle of the day and middle of the night, and has been that way all week. Hope this isn’t how alliances is going to work because this will quickly kill the game mode off. At least there is a lot more action in live WvW. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
subversiontwo.7501 Posted October 21, 2022 Share Posted October 21, 2022 (edited) To do Anet's job for them once more: No, the matchmaking algorithms are not in the beta yet. They intend to look at similar pieces (size, activity) being formed and then spreading them out. Exactly where they are with their betas no one really knows though since Anet are not talking about their progression, we do not experience any noteworthy progression when testing and we do not even know what they expect us to test anymore. Of what we can see, some bugs, possibly, may be a bit more infrequent now over the year from beta 1 to this.

Fun fact: This week about as many players was killed in WvW as the total reported casualties in the 5 months of the Battle of the Somme. Slightly more actually died (everyone falls off a cliff at some point). 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fact, when ANet went into a bit more detail on what is planned, they told us that they are planning for the seasons (the new "relinking"-cycle after WR is finished) to last 6 weeks (rather than the current 8 weeks). The beta-phases just last one week currently, as we are only testing the team-creation algorithm (which isn't even completed yet as it lacks alliance-functionality). There isn't even any matchmaking involved (yet) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't remember the 6 bit but yes its not every week, its your new Team 1Up and 1Down against other Teams but not relinking weekly. Hence the testing cycles of these weekly test so they can figure out how their logic is holding up.
