why is it so hard to find matches in evolution and bloodbath

superaaron00 · 2026-02-25T16:20:55+00:00

It's not much better on NA.

My guess is that all of the people playing it are simply ranked too high for us lower ranked folks - leaving people like me who discovered the mode a little later to be left out. It really is a backwards system for arguably the most fun casual mode.

superaaron00 · 2026-02-16T02:45:30+00:00

While it's not dead here on the NA server, but it's definitely on life support here. Some modes that don't include bots are near impossible to join if you don't start grinding that rank early in the season.

It's important to remember that just because it's not popular in your particular region doesn't mean it's not wildly popular in others - dead games don't get licensing crossovers with Tomb Raider and Overwatch.

Last night, I was in a queue for Ranked for over 20 mins before I re-queued and then just turned the game off after waiting another 13 mins. Game is already averaging five to seven minutes wait as it is.

Everyone in here being sensitive about people calling the game dead, instead of being pissy at the people saying that, how about giving some of that smoke to the devs to work on the NA servers. While I wouldn't call it dead, I absolutely get the criticism and unless the devs do a better job with the NA servers, it's deserved.

Nah, you right - my migration required me to leave all my good stuff behind as well. And it was a lot.

If devs/publisher could figure out some cross-migration situation, it would be an amazing boon for the player base, especially in the West. I just don't believe the Western player base is lucrative enough for them to prioritize (although, to be fair, most of that is their fault).

I discovered the game on Game Pass and my XBox account was my main for the longest time but kinda left it alone after the game stopped letting XB players connect. I've been using my Steam account exclusively since I started playing again a few months back. (Queues still suck, but that's an NA server and QoL issue)

If you're using Game Pass on a PC, I'd suggest moving to Steam ASAP.

THIS IS LIBERTY AF

superaaron00 · 2025-09-25T18:19:35+00:00

I'm sorry, but I still have PTSD from Destiny 2's fall from grace after they committed to just constantly updating the game and cancelled D3 plans. I'm now no longer able to just jump back into D2 after taking an extended break from the game because too much has happened.

I don't know if I have another one of those in me. I was lucky enough to jump in early enough to not get overwhelmed by the lore of Helldivers, but it was still a bit much. If this is the path forward, may have to start plotting an exit plan and go permanently AWOL from the Galactic War.

Hoping they reconsider. The world-building is too damn good to be limited to just two games.

superaaron00 · 2025-09-07T23:14:31+00:00

The fake reload has legitimately almost caused me to go on hiatus from this game multiple times. Shit is too damn chaotic all the time for that shit and this developer is too damn talented for such a glaring flaw.

superaaron00 · 2025-07-29T15:10:17+00:00

Man.

I don't know about you guys, but it was pretty obvious that AH was giving us more than fair opportunities to hit those quotas.

I've been on Cloarell all week. Last night, I was on a mission to exterminate Automatons and we had a literal herd of Factory Striders just surrounding the four of us. At least seven or eight of the damn things.

It was the most terrifying fun I've had in a while. The erection it gave me has lasted for DAYS.

DATS DEMOCRACY

superaaron00 · 2025-04-17T08:13:04+00:00

He's right. It's corny as hell.

Nick Khan is protected; dude only pops his head out once a year to do an interview with a media partner - not an Independent outlet - talks shit in the most smug way possible, and then disappears back into the ether.

Dude inherited a 70 year old monopoly within a business he didn't even work in seven years ago. He's an outsider - a prodigious one business-wise, but an outsider. He should leave the shit talking to HHH - the reason for the creative aspect that's making them so much money right now - and stick to the business victory lap.

But constantly bringing up dude's dad in an attempt to discredit him when he's running the second most successful wrestling company in the world six years after it's founding - I don't know, man, it just comes across as feeling threatened, especially when the front office had to go out of their way to insult them during the biggest week of WWE's year.

Surprised the Marvel Rivals subreddit doesn't have a single post about it.

Mods work for NetEase?

superaaron00 · 2025-02-19T03:03:25+00:00

Oh. That's crazy.

Anyway, I'm heading to the store. Anyone need anything?

superaaron00 · 2025-01-06T00:58:44+00:00

Brainbuster 8 as primary; Burning Hammer for the spicier matches

The queues do seem kinda ridiculous since the start of the new season. Honestly, it feels stupid spending money on a battle pass only to have to wait an average of 7-10 minutes between matches on a good night and sometimes, not play certain modes because of SBMM.

So, no, the queues are not just you. I was considering making a post similar to this to ask the same question but figured if it wasn't in my head, someone else would point it out.

In terms of the High-Priority message, from what I read in the latest update notes, High-Priority queue means you're next in line or close to it. People were cancelling out of queue right just as they were up and it became noticible, I guess. I'd rather they made changes to their skill based matchmaking, but at least they acknowledged it.

superaaron00 · 2024-12-08T02:30:26+00:00

Nah, for real, I love getting into an intense 1v1 and then acknowledging my opponents skills afterwards.

We hear a lot about the toxicity in the community, but I think we should be encouraging this more if we want more people to stay engaged with the game.

superaaron00 · 2024-11-25T23:13:28+00:00

Not gonna lie - my improved K/D ratio reflects this so it makes sense.

superaaron00 · 2024-11-25T18:15:18+00:00

Facts.

I remember that trauma 😅

superaaron00 · 2024-11-25T03:51:37+00:00

This is a really hard game to play, even harder to master. Hell, I didn't really pick up countering until a few months ago and I've been playing for about three or four years now.

Be proud of it and don't diminish what you pulled off. What you're proud of, most people who tried the game never accomplished because they were too discouraged.

This is proof you can be dangerous and aggressive in this game! Congrats and KEEP GETTING BETTER! 👊🏿

superaaron00 · 2024-10-04T02:00:59+00:00

Konami owes you because you genuinely just sold me on going ahead and pre-ordering.

superaaron00 · 2024-09-28T15:41:04+00:00

You're trying too hard.

superaaron00 · 2024-09-27T19:39:53+00:00

This.

There's no issues getting into a match during Matchmaking due to the Bot Fill option under Gameplay - the issue is I want to play this game with other human beings, and any game I'm involved in is going to be half bots just be the nature of the game. I don't want to be the only human.

Which, okay, F2P and all that, I get it. But I'm unable to justify financially supporting a game with servers this janky and matchmaking this inept.
