[2022] For Honor Matchmaking

Hey @cubanpete_,

Thank you for kindly taking the time out to leave feedback regarding the matchmaking experience.

During matchmaking there is a balance of matching players based on skill, location and time waiting always with the intention of ensuring the best experience possible.

Your feedback is great as it really helps us better understand what players would like to see in the future.

Many thanks

Hey there

You can only be matched with the available players who are logged in and queued at the time you search. If you're finding yourself matched with players outside of your MMR quickly, as you've stated within 20-30 seconds, it's likely because there aren't a great deal of players at your level in your region playing at the time. The matchmaking system will always try to match you with other players as close to you both in terms of region, renown and MMR as possible, you can read more about how the system works here. It's a tricky situation because lets say hypothetically we did stick to a strict MMR limit players could then be waiting an indefinite period of time to find a game which I'm sure some players might find equally frustrating but I absolutely appreciate where you're coming from and the points you've raised.

Your feedback is absolutely appreciated on this subject and we'll pass this on to the team for you but we're not able to offer you any assurances or guarantees things will be changed I'm afraid because at present the current matchmaking system is working as intended.

Thanks.
