"
The previous system in which opponents were selected randomly has been changed to a system in which opponents with similar Olympiad points will be matched first. "

what does this mean ?

i cant say it personally affects me but when i read the changes i (perhaps incorrectly) thought they were aimed at discouraging feeding.

until i went to get matches out the way - toon with 9 points v toon with 64, so i thought oh "similar" must mean within the same 100 - then i saw a toon with 20 something pts v one with 290 ish.

is it simply that u will be matched to someone with the nearest pts that signs at the time u do ? What was this change intended to do ?
I think the system check the number of avaiable people too.

for example if there are 11 people in the same range of points 10 will fight each other and 1 will fight anyone that is avaiable no matter the points the oponent have.

just a guess.
I really like this system : everyone can do much more matches now (and thus get more rewards from oly quests !).
from what i figured out (and i might be totaly wrong) the oly system checks the players with similar point and put them together. However when a player does not have any competitors with similar points he will be totaly randomed to players with higher or lower points than him. so assuming 4 players participate with 5 , 21 , 22 and 100 points each the system will put the players that have 21 and 22 together and the one that has 5 with the one that has 100.
Its wrong in a way but gives you better chances than before (i think but still in doubt)

No, but unless they have an exact date/time they cannot check anything from this post on forum. Do what he said entering at least some timeframe when did it happened to you so they can check what exactly was happening at that time.
hehe yeah, sometimes it's not working cause I got today on my DC (around 15 points or less) an GK with 300 or more points :D

It's happening when there are not much ppls in oly I think... but not sure o.O
is not working at all
many time happened to get low pointers when in my chain was 2-4 ppl with many points
is totally random

Sace that is not funny for players who have 30 points and fighting with farmer with 700 pts++++
So stop signing at the wrong time then.
Someone from stuff needs to explain us , how system works. It does happen a 20 point char to get a 300+ points opponent. So can u officialy give us players feed back about how this new game update works??
Awaiting your reply thks.
Ok.

Should I care for the opinions of someone who isnt smart enough to figure out when to sign, and that cant stop crying on forums?
hahaahhaa now U fall down to personal attacs omg how ordinary you are:)
I dont think so. Im using Google Chrome...

Some Aiki guy thought I thought I was a god though, but I'm not sure if thats plausible/correct/crazy or not.
That was a personal attack?

Seriously...

It's apparent you dont know how oly works. And instead of trying to figure it out, you come here crying that it is broken.

Just BSOE out of this thread before you lose more face lol.

Or are you blocked? rofl

after this post Smittie im sure you have something blocked.and next U not following discusion just jeering.
so i suggest open new thread pt"who wanna jeering with Smittie"so if nobody loves mby there you find something:D
One more time.

In english pls.

And stop being blinded by my post count. I dont know why you get so hung up on it, I've been posting for 7 years or so, how can I not have 10k post count?
imho you can't control who you will fight in oly especially during the last few days of the month; after you got ported out and signed up again for next match, you will almost instantly get the 120s message again.

the new oly system is great imho but sometimes you can still get the short end of the stick by fighting oly farmers with many points. :p
This new oly system is a lot better.

yes is better than before,but isnt perfect now as we have to expect after update.My sugestion is to let farmers fight with farmers after they rich for example 200 pts,if they couldnt find oponent at the time let them w8 until somebody comes(they w8 anyway to get points from noobs),i wish farmers will fight with farmers and we can watching this and learning.
Or you could just wait till the end of the week when most of us have already reached our match limits. :/

if U mean "us" =farmers then you guys may communicate with each other and make farmers fights in one time.

The farmers will do exactly the opposite.

You see, the purpose of Oly farmers is to drain points from regular players, whereas dodging each other.

Once I tried Oly in the end of week and ended up fighting a bunch of enforcers in a row. Guess what, they all did not have too many points at that moment, as they were just starting to participate. That is, quite a few farmers deliberately refused to play Oly for a while to keep themselves low on points, so that they could farm the remaining easy opponents first.

+1

as to a post...i agree with you!
it is an instance zone +1
so why us ppl with 20 points cant wait for other 20 pointer i dont know
what they should have done is...
when group lets say 30 ppl formed up
25 low points 5 enforcers... instance zone... should've wait for 26th low pointer and let 5 enforcers wait for 6th enforcer...but we all know that there are waves and this waves consist of 20-30 ppl sign up at the same time...and they call instance a small room where 20 ppl gather up and no matter if u weak or strong u will face each other!

so system is broken!

and Smittie...dont get frustrated :P +1 on try to figure out when to sign up )) i do the same...but still sometimes enforcer comes ffs...hehe when i get 50 points he takes most of it (
i would like to observe farmers spectacular fights,no just when they smash opponents with one hit
you can still push waves based on 10 signings, as long as you understand how to do it. feeding is also still possible.

the point matching works as intended, but the thing that ths system doesnt take into consideration is when there is an odd number of high pointers in a wave. if there is an odd number of high pointers, 1 of the high pointers will get a low pointer (whichever one has the highest pts) by default.

im surpised one clan hasnt tried to screw opposing oly farmers by mass signing low pointers, because anyone going for a contested hero knows that +1 pt matches hurt.
It would have been better if they allowed more CB and 3v3 and less open fights.
class based for most classes is near impossible with the changed minimum required amount of players needed..
The change to cb sucks

that makes sense.

smittie i said i lacked technical ability not comprehension skills ;-P

sace why tell pl to report as a bug ?
