I go through periods of literally a year without playing this game. Then I log back in and play a few games.
And it reminds me why I quit.
The matchmaking in this game is the most shockingly bad, useless inept monstrosity of a matchmaking system that has ever existed.
I played 4 games this afternoon. I lost all 4. It’s a game, it’s supposed to be fun, not wall to wall misery.
Off to play Fortnite, where you actually win some games.
See you in a year, unless you’ve been taken offline by then, which I hope for dearly.
There are several things wrong with the game “improvements” throughout the years. My main one is the increase of speed of the gameplay little by little each time. And the way how units die very fast and easy, quite often the gameplay being without much about strategy but rather about pumping units which die quick and need to be replaced. The game basically has eliminated micromanagement during the skirmishes and reducing the game to swarming units and sending them to death while you hurry to make more and send them to the same fate. Wash, rinse, dry, repeat.
