Well I figured out what the substitution is and I think the sub is more vulgar than the word it replaces
maybe we should suggest alternatives to the V word?
How about Vertical Bacon Sandwich? Or tightly packed Kebab
or as my 8 year old said "**** said a rude word at school today" Me " what was that?" 8yo ... "For China" ... still makes me smile

He's a ?Deutsche?bag because he is a clubber. Read the thread. Hangar full of MK2 Shocktrain Spectres, with one Mk2 Hydra spectre. In diamond 3 Bingo. I have no problem with whales. -Well that's a lie, but that's more of a "hate the game, not the player" sort of thing... What makes him a ?Deutsche? is he's a tanker. There's no way he's in diamond3 with that hangar without tanking. Unfortunately Diamond3 is kind-of where Pixo has drawn the line-in-the-sand for tanking. Their stance has been you can't be that bad of a tanker if you're in diamond or above. So diamond3 is full of them. I'm there on an alt account, and every game is completely lopsided, just depends on what team pulled the most tankers. When you realize Pix can fix this just by adding some hanger caculations into the matchmaking...

They could just as easily have fixed the old hangar-based mm and avoided all this horse「dookie」 in the first place.

When you realize Pix can fix this just by adding some hanger caculations into the matchmaking... I've said it a million times: I could write a script in under 5 minutes that finds every tanker in the game. If they wanted to stop this non-sense, they would. I'm quite aware that matchmaking is stupid in it's current form, and I've always advocated a combined system for matchmaking that uses both hangar level and rank. I don't understand why it has to be one or the other (i.e. - the old system vs. the new system, respectively)

Then we can all share and send it to Pixonic and you could get hired

Not going to bust out C+ coding on you, but it's really not that hard. I haven't done serious programming in years, I'm in management now, but even I could muddle through a data gathering script. Assuming they actually keep logs of every game... (which I'm sure they do) Basic outline, repeat daily: - Queue all players who have ejected > (.66*current hangar count max value) in a given day. Count number of times per player per day.
- Do the same for anyone who has done zero damage in a game.
- Anyone greater than 10/5/whatever (Playtesting and manual sorting of actual numbers to estimate impact would be necessary here) spends a week in LPQ.
- Develop a LPQ for squads queuing with LPQ players, so there is no way to skirt the system when in the LPQ. (The only part that wouldn't take 5 minutes)
DONE.
