CQC Seems to be huge improvement in CQC/Arena today

Scoopy Doopy · Jul 28, 2016

I put this thread in here because if anybody were to take their first look into this forum, they would see several negative posts without necessarily noticing that many of them end with a rather positive description of today's patch in relation to CQC/Arena,

It is early days but following the patch, getting a game is much quicker and after a couple of matches, the matchmaking appears at least, to be starting to match people more fairly.

Things are looking good!

Played for a couple of hours and matchmaking worked without problems. Also had matches all the time.

Hopefully this will bode well for the main game too then

Just tried Area again after some time... in 30 min got 1 match...
To me it looks the same old stuff..

Now i will repeat myself like a broken record - FD need to increase rewards for CQC to make it profitable like SOTHIS runs and people will come to play CQC...simple like that not a rocket science...
CQC at least for me is more fun like jumping, jumping and jumping

Update: in next 30 min also got 1 (Team DM) match that crashed with matchmaking server error

Except when trying to play TDM, then you get 8 players and the room just sits there waiting for more players that never come.

We have that now also in DM so yeah this bug was not fixed unfortunately.

So I posted a bug report about the hanging lobbies in CQC, and it disappeared. That should give you a good indication of Fdevs intentions regarding CQC.....

This post? https://forums.frontier.co.uk/showthread.php/277798-frequent-connection-errors-in-CQC

The devs followed up and asked for more info.

No not that one, but that one is basically the same. I will turn on netlogging and give it to them next time it happens, and it will happen again, been happening a LOT lately.
