It's still only opinion 🤷 tbh It's not competetive to have this type of matchmaking. It's just fair. It would help casual and bad players to play game in their own environment instead of being rolled by people with too much experience/gear for them to handle. Also that would hurt egos of some better players, because they would die a lot more, so idk. For sure it's not good for keeping "game is imbalanced" reddit posts number low 😅
@d3adagain385 can you truthfully answer this, why do you think the devs added more AP for player kills? Devs created the LB system for how they think the game should be played... Unfortunately they bent the knee to the COMPETITIVE players and further turned their backs to the casual players. I am a casual player and i love PVP but getting spawn rushed isnt fun for anyone no matter what gear you have or skill.
@@AnitaBnApache imo it was added to make teaming worse in some way. You are getting juicy AP for killing the guy instead of licking his butt. I think you don't understand what competetive game means. It's about game being more 'e-sport ready' f.e StarCraft 2, so : more balance, fair matchmaking, same chance for everyone. Spawn rushing sucks and that's something that you need to be prepared for 🤷♂ I don't think that equal matchmaking fixes that 100% but for sure it lowers frequency, because on lower levels people can't navigate map properly to spawn rush 🤣
@@d3adagain385 that's the thing with this game genre, this game will never be "balanced" in any form of way, they tried copying EFT which immensely failed(IMO a huge map the same size as the EFT maps could fix the game, but classes are also a factor) . When it comes to a "competitive" game you will always have teaming or cheaters in some form of way, because that's just it, they just want to be at the top and don't care who they have to trample on to get there. it just sucks when you see a game with potential to bring so much more than competition get sucked into this void of self-egotism. But i think you are deriving yourself into the topic of competitiveness which this game does not currently have. Also wanted to add theres no Return2Investment, you have to really invest time, (which the casual player does not have) into finding or even buying decent gear.
As an ultra casual player shooting 10 arrows in a mummy just to get two hit wasn’t fun to me. Hope they can fix all the issues in the game and make it not so hard in casual.
I agree, there are too many people/content creators who are rude and hateful and get more views(Todfather), for people who just find DAD it probably wards people off from the game and is harming the game. I love the game and hope Vix gets more eyes on his positive mindset and approach to the games issues and flaws:)
@@thesaltyduckling80 Come, send me your replay. I will show you atleast 5 mistakes that you made. It's usually not imbalanced. It's 99% of the times people that suck.
Said it before, I'll say it again. If you create a game that is gear-based (not skill based.) Then you must have some sort of matchmaking centered around that. In WoW you were restricted by ilvl. This is a gearscore. It's not a wild idea, it's been around for very long time. IM should've been restricting different dungeons and HR mode to ranges of gearscore. So if I had a load of blue gear, I would only be able to enter Inferno or HR Crypts for example Or do it the Robocraft way where I can equip whatever I want but my gear puts me into a certain bracket, and then I am only queued with others in that same bracket.
Refreshing content. Positive and not bitter/toxic takes. Thank you for the positivity..we need more UA-camrs like you.💯🔥 Not going to say the other UA-camrs name but the blunt opinion about ranked is spot on. And that dude should take notes😂
i hope they add a system in which rare gear has some sort of rating (green longsword+100 gear rating, blue 200) and depending on how much gear rating you have is who you match with.(low gear lobby 0-250, and maybe a 250-500, 500+) im not sure how many gear points should be allowed for specific lobby, im just really hate the gear lock on normal lobbies that forces anything above blue to move to high roller where ai (in my opinion) is way to annoying to deal with. in truth i feel that the pvp with blues (and maybe some purples) is peek, but is a shame that using blues its locked behind highroller with tanky ai and players geared with all purple and gold gear. im also not talking about scraping highroller lobbies and normal, im trying to say instead of mmr we have the matchmaking tied to gear. idk what i just said may be horribly flawed
I agree with your points. I try to give Ironmace the benefit of doubt mainly because it’s a very new company that’s working on both the business and the game at the same time. Not to mention the on-going lawsuit. But that also makes me wonder how everything is currently being run. Hopefully structure is good 😅
I quit after they took away the mode where you could only go in with blues and worse. The gear gap in the game is the worst. Its somehow even worse then Tarkovs, and theres no way I can dedicate enough time to the game to have fun with it anymore. I can see why the hype died off, it always happens with these games, Chivalry, Mordhau, they always start strong and then sweats ruin it for the casuals, they leave, and the game slowly dies. Its almost a given at this point
I see where you're coming from. Normals in the game are limited to entering with white quality items now, and I would personally love to see that be increased to green quality. You can still find blues and purples, but with HR being a thing the gap between the two modes is way too much.
@@Vixacious Is that so? I do think white gives little wiggle room, but that might be enough to get the boys to play again. Ill take being limited, over being stomped.
yeah, gotta say I agree. The game has been out long enough now that the experimentation phase should be over. They're trying to do everything and please everyone.
I agree with the elimination of skill-based match-making. It may be ok for the future but only after the game has a VERY large and dedicated player base.
Rogues definitely need some help, and seeing that they are only playable with gold kits and viola or deathbloom says a lot about the class and the gear itself. Both need to be fixed before druid comes out.
This video contains some of the thoughts I've had a long time about this game. I agree about every point said. I have close to 2000h in the game believe it or not and currently I don't even feel like booting up the game. They are listening too hard to streamers and crybabies on discord and making decisions based off the loudest babies. Instead of constantly nerfing classes that feel too strong, how about bringing other classes up a bit so everyone has fun playing whatever they want and still have a chance of winning a 1v1. some classes need a full rework *cough cough rogue*
IMO, IM gonna kill the game with bad desicion making. And some day, someone/some company make a good Dungeon Crawling extracion game and blow up. IM gonna say, THIS COULD BE US :(:(:(:(
Kids gotta stop crying and play the game before we lose one of the best games like everyones saying 99% of you are just bad players get good stop crying play more dont cry if you lose a kit its so easy to rekit that you're crying for no reason
This kind of 12 year old brain rot thinking is exactly what kills games. If low skill players dont have a avenue to be able to enjoy the game, then they are just going to leave. Hence why the numbers are getting worse and worse. I understand that for your ape brain this doesnt make a lot of sense, but in a multiplayer game, if the devs response to "Wow, im not enjoying my time as a new player, other with better gear just own me" most players will simply play something else.
@@UnimportantAcc I can pinpoint it exactly, one map, no matchmaking, not a huge gear difference between players. This is why the game got popular let’s just stick to this basic idea
i would have to agree with eveything you said only thing i can understand but don't care for on you're take was the rank i personally like the rank it gives you something to go for other than the fact that they now added it to norms kinda dumb and the fact its not ab pvp and just collecting i wanna pvp and pvp more geared teams but i can understand with what you are saying and some what agree as well

I think rank system is necessary with the addition of gold gear
good takes though
I recognize that bell toll at 5:18, but I can't place it. What is your friend playing?
I think it was Teamfight Tactics
i pray they will balance the classes, I'll come back when I hear they've done that
Every excuse is valid 😂 It's just fancy way to say 'I have skill issues'. Don't worry, you will get better. Just play

Cheating teaming and rmt. In that order. That’s what they should be focusing on
Kids gotta stop crying and play the game before we lose one of the best games like everyones saying 99% of you are just bad players get good stop crying play more dont cry if you lose a kit its so easy to rekit that you're crying for no reason
Think that’s part of the problem, dark and darker is a low skill game dominated by highly geared players. If you aren’t geared you lose.
