   He’s a 40%er, guarantee it. Otherwise it would have been left alone a long time ago. 

 

In fairness to him - WG has constantly been complained to about MM.  

   

    However the current MM is worse than it was when +/-1 first came in.   

 

 Yes I like the fact that now 7 tier X tanks don’t see 1 9 and 6 8’s, as happened in +/-2, but all I want is balanced tiers (except failtoons that’s on them - just take the highest tier in the toon as it used to be). 

   I don’t like toon matching, failtoon matching as far as types go and all I want is a 2 TD cap/side.

maybe he is himself a tinfoil hat wearer ? All this time working everyday trying to unrig it ?

I still have to rewatch the 6.0 video, but casually listening in, I did raise an eyebrow as well on the constantly tweaking MM.

 

Excuse me, come again? 
 

 

 
Failtoons, they can simply do away with them. Whether tanks or boats. 99% of the time that platoon is ineffective ... or it is the rigging kid(s). Enforce the platoon to be the same tier. Done.

Agreed with the tweaking MM statement. And it wasn't a rehearsed, planned statement. Was kinda ad-lib, so we know it is true. There is something there. We just don't know what, how deep this could run. And of course some aspects we will never find out about.

I think you are reading too much into their comments on MM. 

  MM tweaking was +/-2 to +/-1, balancing types of tanks etc.  

WG has never said they didn’t weight certain things in MM, only what isn’t counted.  

 

Honestly it really doesn't matter - the larger issue is still as it has been from day 1 education of the player base and getting folks not to lick the windows.

  Even if it’s bad I’d rather have them tell us “this is how it is, sorry were screwing you guys” than for them to be so secretive about it. They can do that without giving away anything code wise. At least we’d know how it works and could come to grips with it. 

 

  ...or,

 

  Maybe he just screwed up under pressure and didn’t know what he was saying. Think about it, nerd in an interview who doesn’t have a lot of social skills. Nobody knows the kind of work he’s put into it and he wants everyone to realize he’s important and trying to help. Maybe he needs a raise because the house needs a new roof and him and Svetlana have another kid on the way so he goes for it. He chokes on the interview, wouldn’t be the 1st time it’s ever happened.

A lot of tweaking with MM could be on getting MM to build the teams faster to reduce queue times.  But I would really like to know what "tweaking" means...

it is known for sure that the mm is continuously monitored and adjusted. 

Not by huge chainsaw methods like the mm+-2 removal,

but also by tuning smaller details.

It was known before that guy mentioned it on YouTube.

How do you measure something does not exist?

Oh I agree, but I still think the main issue of complain stems from the appalling player base.
