When Will New MM come to Android?

I'm getting pounded. I had pretty good stats. Level 7 and 8 bots with magnums, taran and aphids. But now I'm paired with guys spending thousands of dollars with 2 and 3 Fury couple with 3 Zeus all high level. I can't even get into the fight, and poof, it's over. Seriously pointless even playing at this point. Win rate went from low 70's to under 50, and damage is virtually 1/4 of what it was. I'm lucky to get 200K anymore.

Not a big fan of the new MM. To be honest, it's not very fun to be a punching bag. Essentially it made me the seal to be clubbed by all the heavy coiners.

So either I spend a bunch to even compete, wait until my stats suck so bad that I can get matched with like players, or just not play.  Either way, I have seen my playing time dramatically reduced due to frustration.

I'm legitimately curious if the people experiencing the greatest upheaval are those with the highest win % before the MM update. Also, I'd be curious to know if they were farming recently before the update.

I haven't farmed for 2 months and my win% is still somewhere in the 60% range and my opponents have definitely been all over the range. FYI I am at 7/8 heavies now. HOWEVER, I am much less frequently winning Au in matches as I have had to get a lot smarter and contribute by holding positions/creating diversions instead of wheeling around like lord death in each match because my bots are usually not good enough to just tank/mow the reds.

Yep, a lot of people with Mid Strength hangers who play a lot are getting pounded by the new MM. if you check the Sticky in General about the new MM O explain why this is happening and how the MM isnsorting everything out. Basically it boils down to...

Mid Strength Hanger + Established Elo = High Strength Hanger + Default Elo

Basically, once you establish your Elo you are stuck sorting all the new to system guys with stronger hangers upwards.

Anyone who was riding the hard cap at the top of Bronze or Silver get the worst of it. Also, people who were running weapon levels much higher than Bot levels.

I'll volunteer.

I'm on android and have gone 2.5 and can report that yeah, the MM has been updated alright... sadly though, anyone that wasn't already running a 5 slot hanger full of buzz saw's is now perma-screwed.

To get to a competitive level with what I now get matched with, I only need about 10 or 12k in gold for new bots (Galahad's or Fury's, both 2500 each) and maybe 15k in workshop points for some Stalkers. I'm thinking maybe I can cap a little first, then shut the door by feeding you Trident until you puke so yeah, I'll totally be needing a balanced hanger lol.

Oh wait... ok...  I need maybe another 5k or so more gold for some Orkan's and another 20k+ WSP for Taran's. Oh wait again... almost forgot, I also am gonna need like 300M in silver and 6 months so I can upgrade everything  to level 12. Since that's what I gotta fight now, that's what I gotta bring...

So all told, I'm only like 32k away in gold, 40k away in WSP, a quarter billion away in silver away from stacking my deck so we can fight fair again... ohhhh I can't wait!!!

Now as soon as I figure out how to get out of last place in damage, not be a liability to my team and maybe stop losing every match, I am so gonna stockpile mad stacks!!!


edit: oh crud, kinda got carried away and forgot 5k for that fifth slot and a six pack of Tridents... hmm....

Yep, basically. If you logged in next week you'd never see the TT guys, you'd have too easy matches that got smoothly and progressively harder till you found your place. But, throw it on all at once and it's mass chaos for a while.

Well new match making has dropped and initially I found my games felt pretty "fair" running my Silver hangar, none of the TT guys everyone was seeing in sight.
Today many TT guys and the only thing I could contribute to battles was beacon running (which is agonising in a Boa but still faster than heavies).
I'm not sure I've stabilised but I am definitely seeing players closer to my hangar level/bot level at moment, as time passes I assume I'll settle even further into my correct place.

+My general thoughts are that games are much tighter and I need to seriously work extremely to earn top 3.
+Quite a number of WORKING bot varieties
+Reds are definitely far more skilled and so are my allies.
+Geps finally got a nerf
+Clubbers got an ironic taste of their own medicine

-Most of my games I'll place average (occasionally netting me 1 gold)
-I am definitely missing the feeling of being top player most of my games
-I die way faster due to higher skill levels
-Lower level players really shouldn't ever be matched with TT
-General bot level of opponents are still above my own

I'm looking at this positively, this change needed to happen for a long time and this is only the beginning. We can expect many patches as they fine tune and fix the problems as they appear.
For those who are threatening to leave (or have already), GOOD. I think most of us needed to be reminded that we are not the biggest fish in the pond.
Furthermore if your reaction to adversity or difficulty is to quit, then holy hell life is going to teach you!

Myself and others in our clan with similar HB/Last Stand hangars are seeing the exact same thing. I have some games where i can't even get one shot out before being destroyed by lvl 12 bots. I've had some games where it seemed to be even. highest lvl being only 6 heavies, with lvl 8 weapons. Those I seem to shine in. The rest are as you are dealing with. Keep at it, hoping to see the light at the end of the tunnel..

It's official, I'm quickly losing interest in this game. It's so frustrating. I didn't farm gold, and played my level, did fine. Now I'm paired with 12/12's all day. My 6-8/8-9 are getting worked. I don't contribute, get taran and magnum blasted to death, or Zeus all day. I have zero interest in essentially being seal clubbed by the game. I have no idea how they're matching, but I don't belong in an all gold TT match whatsoever.

And it's only gotten worse. I'd say I'm about 5/30 wins to loses. My 4 bots are gone in seconds. At this rate, I either spend a grand to compete, or get blasted for the next 6 months while I try to level up.

Please tell me again how this is enjoyable?

I can completely sign this post.

Wish that was true. The real hardcore clubbers running 2/12 hangars can now slap their weapons on heavy robots and be pretty competetive with 7/12ish lineups (heavy robot upgrade from 6 to 7 is typically just over a day). Stock robots (Griffs, Leos, even Natashas) will do the trick here.

Regretfully I must revise my initial assessment. The crap has come to Android for me now. I played solo for 1.5 hours last night and did not win a single game.
Top tier everywhere. Fun times.

Will start by saying, I am not ranting. I will suck it up, buttercup.

But my experience on Android has been different than what I read about iOS. Instead of initial craziness, followed by gradual settling, Android changes for me started slowly, with good, but increasingly tough matchups over the past few days. Win rate dropped into the high 50-60% range. All good.

But last night, for the first time since I started playing 2 months ago, I failed to finish a task. Got 8/10 wins. Must have lost about 25 times, and they were not even close. all Blue meched out every game. Lost 3 more times this morning before work. And these losses are bad. Reds are marching into our spawn and vaporizing my team within maybe 3 minutes. Sometimes squads, sometimes not, but always level 10 plus bots wearing 10/11 weapons. My damage has dropped to 330k average, kills down to 2.5, and win rate at 40%.

Hoping the past 24 hours were just a bump in the road and not the new norm.

* I'm on Android.
* My hanger 6/8-9 heavys. - 7 weps left to get all 9's
    + a lvl 7 Galahad & Carnage 

I had my win rate up to 62% at start of yesterday & started my new (Win 8 task).  I was Rollin Hard at 7/8 Wins!  Then I slammed the wall and lost 3 straight.  I was hoping to get back into 70's win rate.  I did see a mix of bots & some clans running w some 12/12.

I know competition is getting better overall w the occasional max 12/12 reds, but usually they have been on both sides.  I did also see a level 15 & 20 pilot on my team one match (whew, that must have been brutal for them)

I.am just trying to role with it all!
 + Battles have way more competition 
 + Battles usually last close to 7-8 mins
 + I am improving my game (awareness) dont want to step out in front of lvl 1w weps!!

Going to be trying to look for the good during the conversion.

Just my thoughts, yours may differ

I quit today. After 4 days of constantly losing against 12/12 bots and teammates only camping and doing nothing this game has really turned into crap. Befor new MM I had a constant win rate of around 60/70% now I am under 10% because I get blown from the map within minutes by hi level players. So instead of getting farmed by geps I am now getting farmed by 12/12 .... well done pix and bye!
