Sorry - I haven't noticed a difference. But usually everyone I have in my lobby is on my friend's list or is a friend of a friend. Maybe that's why there are less randoms? Because more and more people are playing in private games?

Huh. Last night, I was twice grouped with 3 others that were all within 50 N7 levels of me (we were all in the early 300s). I just chalked it up to coincidence at the time, but if other people are seeing it too...

Perhaps it doesn't force you into a lobby of comparably-N7'd people, but if it finds one it will prioritize it?

I can't get ppl to join my games no matter what. If my friends and usual teammates are not online I'm doomed. Unless I want to play the same map/enemies all the time, there aren't many games I can join either. When I do, they never fill up for a full team Gold match.

N7 2464 and if my N7 rating has anything to do with it, it is the most stupid "fix" ever in a mp game. I've played with people of N7 under 100 which are very good players and with some higher than my own rating that are not that good.

We are not competing against each other so there is no need to make it a N7 equivalent level search for Quick Games! There is no Ladder and the priiiiiize is not that great either. I just want to have fun but Gold requires a full 4 members team for me. Please Bioware, undo the "fix"!

I am N7 810, and my brother is N7 1100. Since the Rebellion DLC release, we are having a very difficult time filling lobbies for Gold. We ended up running several matches 3-man, because it wasn't worth waiting so long for a fourth.

Even switching the difficultly to silver *shudder* doesn't fill any faster, and when it does, all the N7 rankings are often higher than mine. This isn't good at all, I don't mind carrying - and I'd rather take N7 < 100 than have to wait this long when hosting.

At least let the host have a setting to turn this new feature off.

And now when I hit "Quick Match - Search" I may end up as "Leader" in some lobby. It has happened too much to be just a coincidence of joining right when the game "leader" exited.

That is a false RUMOR. There are just too many people who want to host. Thats why if does not fill up quickly. N7 rating doesnt matter.

You are absolutely wrong. 

- It started to become hard to fill a lobby exactly when the patch was installed. Coincidence?
- Since then, EVERYONE that entered my lobbies and my friends lobbies are high level (our case). It never happened, ever!! the most common is between 200-500.
- There's a considerable number of complainers by now, describing the same situation, nobody enters public slots, when they do, they have a level close to the ones that are already in the lobby. The most recently: http://social.biowar...2020/1#12343182


Definetely something was changed, definetely it have to do with N7 level..

Just a little copy/paste from another one of my posts:

Frankly, I hate promoting. The level-up system should be entirely different. Players' N7 rankings should be based on how much they have played and on the weapons/equipment/characters that they have collected in multiplayer.

In addition, there should be a store setup entirely different than the current one. Players should be able to choose whether or not they wish to save, for example, 250,000 credits to buy a Black Widow, or just gamble on a Premium Spectre Pack and hope they unlock the same weapon for just 99,000 credits.

However, since BioWare will not listen to us...

Yeah, I'd say the matchmaking has been changed. Now almost always I get people with +- similar N7 rank to my own.

To such an extent that several times now, I've basically been thrown into the exact same lobby consecutively. Log in once, find it's not filling up, okay, quit out and search again. Get thrown in exact same lobby. Sigh, quit out. Search again. Get thrown in exact same lobby again. Quit, buy some stuff in shop, redo appearance.. Search for games later. Get thrown in a match - ongoing - with guys from that exact same lobby.

For godssakes... So annoying.

Yep, tis not a rumor, I can confirm that it's affected me since the DLC was released too. Before the dlc anytime I hosted a game it wouldn't take more than 1 or 2 minutes for the lobby to fill, regardless of setup. Now I can go on for well over 5 or 10 minutes without anyone joining.

If they really did implement an N7 matchmaking, I... HATE... IT. GET RID OF IT NOW! >:(

I also don't really buy too much into the "not everyone has downloaded the DLC" theory, since this didn't happened with Resurgence.

I got annoyed because despite 2 new maps most people were still playing FBWGG. So I stopped playing.

My N7 is a little over 1000 and I can't join Bronze and even Silver matches for 10 minutes. This new system is really dumb.

I think a better matchmaking system would be to go by your weapon unlocks. You have people with lots of maxed Rares and Ultra Rares, and people who don't even have the Common weapons maxed. If they're going to match us up using any criteria, it should be our unlocks. N7 is too arbitrary, it just shows how often you promote squads. It's meaningless.

 I'm level 1158 and I always host. All my lobbies today took a long time to fill, all with N7 level close to mine. Is this right? Now the lobbies are filled with guys that have a level close to yours?


I have two problems with it:


- Clearly it is turning extremely harder for me to fill a lobby, since it will keep looking for level close to mine. I have no problems playing with low level, but I have a big problem with empty lobbies, that will be always the case, since high level is far more rare.

- N7 level don't work, it means nothing, it don't bring balance. There's guys that play since day one, are good at it but still in level 120 to 200. It's a extremely bad and innefective way to measure which play should play with which.


 Anyone can confirm if it is really a new feature? Or it's a big coincidence that only high level joined my lobbies today??


Edit: I stayed with a lobby open when I was writing the topic, Not even a single soul joined it, and today is DLC and patch release, so...


Yup, same here. It wasn't anything like that before the patch, so...

I cannot get anyone to join my lobbies for our other two spots, gold or silver. Seriously fix this, it's obnoxious that I can't get a full party.

not really... most of the people I see in silver and gold rooms are at least 150... but I rarely see anyone close to 2000 when I play... over the weekend I've seen one but he ducked out... or network issue... dunno.

I don't know if it's situational but the last two matches I played on Gold were with people who have about by N7 rating.

N7 rank does not represent the skill level so the only effect is I'm nearly spending more time in lobbies waiting for players than playing.

Well at least I no longer see Level 3 adepts with Saber I and Javelin I joining Gold matches.

I'll continue to gain data on this matter.

it's crazy man! most of the times i search random gold i get teleported into an ongoing match (needless to say often FBWGG) screwing my consumables if i shoot 1 bullet or get killed because spawning in the middle of 2 banshees
I hate this: since the patch the game with randoms has become unplayable
I have even got into a Hacked game where everything and i mean everything went down with 1 power/bullet (I left at wave 10 and took a screen without getting the credits-I think they were just kids and I don't mind em just didnt get the credits--any moderator feel free to pm me)
I wish everything went back to normal

That's all well and good for you but what about the rest of us already  six, seven, or eight hundred plus? If you don't promote then we don't have anyone to play with!
