No problem! And nope you aren't paranoid :D

Looking at your match history since I adjusted your rank, I see that you got 1st 3 times, 2nd once, and quit 1 game -- so you must be referring to something that happened in that game.

But anyway, yes -- there are players who still win consistently even against the improved AI on max settings. My goal was to try to create AI that no one could beat and then scale them back to all levels of play (I was unable to make them THAT good, but I got close). The AI have ranks and are treated the same way as players to the matchmaker, so over time, their ranks will settle where they should. And once I make quitting actually adjust your rank, the system will just keep improving over time.

All of this said, I'm going to take a look at how the AI ranks are settling now to make sure that it isn't putting disproportionately good bots in games that it shouldn't.

Hi Baka-gaijin,

Thank you for bringing this to my attention and I'm sorry the new patch hasn't been enjoyable for you. I checked the database and your MMR is definitely overinflated since you always won your matches in the past. And unfortunately, as you realized, your MMR doesn't adjust if you quit a match. So if you only finish games that you are winning, your MMR will only ever increase, therefore making matches unenjoyable for you. Also, having a lot of matches under your belt makes your MMR move a lot slower, SO...

I have reset your MMR so that it can settle where it should be much faster.
Also, for the next patch I will make it so MMR adjusts when a player leaves a match to avoid this sort of situation going forward.

Hey Dieman, the patch that changes the mid-game join bonus is now up! Mid-game joiners now start with average kills.
Post
NEW FEATURES
  • SKILLBASED MATCHMAKING! Enjoy close matches instead of one-sided poundings
    • Using glicko2 (a successor to Elo) and all MageQuit match history since August 2020, hidden skill values have been seeded for all players
    • FFA skill is tracked by treating the match as a "race"; skill of top half of players increases, skill of bottom half decreases
    • 1v1 skill is tracked based on final score: 3-0 is a 100% win, 3-2 is a 60% win, etc.
    • Teams skill is tracked based on final score like 1v1, but is adjusted based on player contribution (damage, healing, kills, etc)
    • Improved region-based matchmaking to include ANY good enough regions, not just the best one
    • If you ask me what your hidden skill value is, I will reset your skill and tell you "average"
  • Chosen quickplay modes are now saved and MageQuit will remember what modes were selecte...

Hello!

Thank you for the message :)
I will look into this and report back!
It will likely be a new option in the rebind settings for each wasd key.

Is there by any way a chance that we'll see the release of a patchnote containing customized movements ?
Sorry for the english, it's not my mothertongue ! Have a nice day
Hi! I'm not sure I fully understand what you are asking -- are you saying you'd like to rebind the WASD movement keys individually?
