New Guild Leader Option in TW: surrender or new TW Rewards

todano

Can you please implement a new option for guild leaders (officers) to surrender in TW? An alternative could be to change the reward system..

The reason, why I asked is, that it seems not like you wanna change your TW Matchmaking, which is still horrible.

Today we fighting against an enemy with 60mio more GP and 100 more GLs with ultimates, ~30 more Executor. There is literally no fun on matchmaking like this. It could be more "fun" or just more "fair" if the rewards are based on the higher guild...

Lol we got a similar match-up for TW. Makes it impossible to plan a good defensive/offensive balance strategy.
Lol surrender option. Maybe a good idea to give feed back about just how often this happens.

The worst aspect of TW matchmaking for me is that they've now started taking your recent results into account.

It's not guaranteed, but there is some evidence that guilds who have had a run of heavy defeats get handed a matchup with a much weaker guild to get them back on track.

I fear the devs will look at the data and think that a guild losing 4 on the bounce then getting a comfortable win shows the algorithm as "working", even though all 5 of those matches could have been horrifically one-sided.

That said - we've had some decent matchups in the last couple of months, even if others have not been so lucky.

I am the GL of UWOL Corellia. I am not sure what happened with the matchmaking. We had all 50 join. We didn’t sandbag.

I asked the officers to set a reasonable defense. (I usually lead TW, but I am on vacation. If there are any teams that you want to practice against, let me know. m0rality#3931.

Dont make up things

Does there need to be a surrender option at all? Just don't do anything. Even easier than pushing a surrender button. And we won't get "guild officer surrendered by accident" threads every few months.

Just put garbage on D and practice your counter.

Not pressing buttons seems easier than pressing a retreat button imo

In my opinion its important to speak about that **** matchmaking. I'm happy for every thread about it...
If nobody talk about it, where should the DEVs know, that there matchmaking is everything, but not fair.

The surrender button is just a trolololo proposal. But why can't we can't the same reward tier, if we had to fight much over our GP? It wouldn't make the TW more fair, but at least more worth.

It is clear the devs, or more accurately, the product manager and executives, don't care about TW matchmaking. It is likely based on a uber-basic metric like GP bracket and your win/loss in last 3 wars. This is pathetic. CG is a one-product company with a billion dollar game that can't write an algorithm nearly as sophisticated as the bots written by volunteers. As long as they make money from the dopamine hits players get in their online casino.....sorry, "game" - they will put zero effort into features that improve playability. Complain all you want, but you may as well scream at the tide for rolling in.
