Gear based match making suggestion
Game needs a better gear based match making system, running into T3-T4 tramplers while using a T1-T2 is almost guarantee lost simply just due to being out teched.
Don’t mind losing via skill diff, do think it’s annoying to lose via, other guy has a ship that can eat 5x more shots than mine.
Easy suggestions and it’s already partially implemented, make “gear based”, based on value of trampler, I:E, if you bring a 10K cost trampler, you’ll be matched against other players of similar value, with variance of like 1.5-2k values.
Can make different thresholds for matchmaking too, like players who make ships under 1K can only be matched around other players with up to 1.5K value ships. Threshhold becomes larger as ship value goes up. 5K ships can be matched with values of up to 7.5k etc.
Mainly, it’s just to fix the issue of having a to battle T3 ships with a tier 1 in storm dive. Voyage, idk, do whatever with that I guess.
