Being forced to matchmake is terrible.
I will say this to those who have issues, do these even if you seem to have good connection...
Run CCleaner
Hardwire, it makes a difference. Believe me, you might not have even known you needed it.
Repair game
Use the new default server, or pick one with bigger lobbies(don't go to the server down under, from what I hear lobbies are few and far between).

Seems like you may have had a connectivity issue if you were booted mid-game. And larger servers may have been available there, was your ping ok? Could also try joining with a buddy, fixed issues on similar empty lobby issues.

I think better communication between Dev's and community would lead to a lot less agro in situations like this.
Was 24hr, then had a new testing session. Maybe it is permanent?

Thanks!
So far it has been extremely enjoyable! I have noticed quite a difference.
My ping is at 33s, I see no reason why I have any lag and I was grouping with Americans. Some things just remain the same: Force abilities not working like Luke's Push infront of 6 people it did nothing, Vader getting stuck in choke animation, the unbearable lag through out the entire day.
When people leave a group by cancelling the matchmaking, the Galactic Assault breaks completely and you have to quit your game and restart the group to painfully wait a while before getting in the game because of queue. These things have been here for a long time, it's time that they are aware of these issues and be fixed before the game goes back to normal tomorrow. Let's hope this matchmaking nightmare ends.
P.S: We still won every game today, the turrets and MTT A.I are better than 3/4 of the playerbase, FACT and PROVEN today if I saw anyone of you on ps4 you know what im talking about
PLUS there is a glitch when I get 3-4 friends to play in Strike that the Spawn feature just goes blank, so now when the enemy just keep spawning IMMEDIATLEY back into the end zone (the heart of the battle) all my team has to do a 25-30 sec sprint just to get back there only to get mowed down by 8 players who are in the end zone now from SPAWNing.
Now you guys added ROUND MATCHMAKING feature so that instead of me playing with my same team against same enemy team... I am transported to empty lobbies.
I'm done with EA and DICE.
I know the MONEY is gone, but can I just have my game back the way it was two weeks ago?
There is little reason to load up my sniper for Jabba’s Condo, but I like to snipe at the cantina.
@F8RGE can we please get the planet AND map info for the upcoming round after the matchmaking is complete?
Add me (xbox Oregon server) if you like
Really hard to even get GA games on PC now, please turn it off.
So I guess we're back at day 2 of the map rotation? So potentially 4 maps to play inbetween all the extra waiting time, if you are Lucky enough...
Thank Yoda that Rdr2 is out next friday...
Yes I have high hopes for RDR2... a game that was delayed so that the developer could get the game right at release instead of getting the playing community to pay to participate in an endless beta test.
The Battlefront community is going to take a hit on 26 October, if there is one left after this latest MM debacle.
Star Wars Battlefront II EOR Matchmaking Test update. We are seeing games are fuller, which is something we aimed to achieve. We have plans for tweaks with the goal of reducing the time to Matchmake.
More to come, thanks for your feedback and patience.
What?! Are you seriously not listening to people? We don't want it!!!
Scenario 1: My side gets wrecked. Matchmaking finds a new game where I not only get the same skill level (on my side) but also the same maps over and over. Yesterday, I played Kamino for 7 matches in a row, only alternating sides twice.
Scenario 2: My side wins. Matchmaking throws me into a new game with no players. WTF?!
Scenario 3: Either wide wins. Matchmaking throws me into a new game where skill levels are almost equal. Maps don't alternate, however.
Time to turn Matchmaking OFF! It's not working yet.
So obvious that they are using this as a live test for another IP. The game has been limping along since launch and if it wasn't Star Wars would have died a long, long time ago.
They should preface these messages with , "Dear Americans"
PLAYERS NEEDED: ANY!
Good for you, and only you.
PLAYERS NEEDED: ANY!
I'd say it is for Battlefield 5.
Why is it that Elon Musk replies to people who aren't even his customers, yet, these guys won't give you the time of day?
PLAYERS NEEDED: ANY!
Yes, there were empty servers, and there could be wait times, but that depended on the time of day, or it depended on how many people still have an interest in playing this game. The wait times are longer now. In addition to that, the spawn on your teammate is a farce, as most people are constantly engaged in battle, it's a fast paced arcade game, not a cloak and dagger game where that where spawning could be easier.
I'm not sure why the devs haven't taken a note from Battlefield 4's online mechanism, where you can select populated rotational maps, with green lit ping for your region (or somewhere nearby) so we can choose what is best for us, as opposed to whatever monstrosity this is?
On a positive note, that one second spawn time over the weekend was awesome, try implementing that on a permanent basis. The whole wait time kills momentum, and is rather redundant.
Can't play against friends in HvV or Showdown anymore
In GA we keep getting shuffled out of good matches into unbalanced ones
Generally we keep playing same maps over and over
If they want to leave an option to individually click matchmake, that's fine - but let me choose. Don't force it on us.
Really it should be what everyone is asking for: scramble the teams where the top player goes to side A, the 2nd and 3rd top go to side B, the 4th to A, the 5th to B, etc.
region: Europe
server: Germany
lantecy: 62 ms but reaching 200 ms sometimes and not because my Inet provider or connection, It was the game server
Playing on PC, Windows 10 Pro Redstone 5
No problem on finding the first match on almost any game mode. I playerd Ewok Hunt (it lasted a lil more in finding a game cause of the palck of players on that mode), Extraction, Blast, Heroes Vs Villains, Galactic and Starfighter Assault, and Strike.
- I was able to find matches on every game mode I played
- Sometimes I landed in an already started match and others I joined a fresh lobby and started a match in almost full/full server
- Experimented some lag during the matches, specially in GA, and sometimes heavy lag
- During my gameplay i was jumping from well balanced matches to semi full or empty lobbies
- The lobby generation (this is not matchmaking) did not added any balance, most of the times it was just starting unbalanced games with new players.
- I played with friends in GA and we created a party. The party was part in the squad (2 of us) and the rest out of the squad (the other 2), the next match neither was on the same squad but scattered in squads (but in the same team, hurray ¬¬ ), the next one started the same but in mid match we get in the same squad and we dont know how it happpened. We were RANDOMLY joinig the same squad
- Fresh lobbies filled fast... and sometimes didnt.
- The system did not took in account if a match was already balanced, it simply disperses players and creates new lobbys
A LOBBY CREATION system IS NOT MATCHMAKING.
I really did like it when I experienced something to team shuffle like in BF1 but then I ended up playing as empire 4 times in a row so not sure if this is intended.
Can the cancel button comeback?
From a purely random play stand point, basically, this kinda forces players to stick in coordinated teams, it seems to me.
Because it's either allow MM to do its thing and play lobby roulette or quit.
In a team of randoms a good synergy is hard to find .. had a few close matches and some where we absolutely steam rolled. I played in all pugs this week end.
So I'd think it would be great if players had the choice of whetherto MM or not.
Maybe on the team side of things in waiting period between, we could get a log?
Say:
- Imperialplayer-so and so#1 Chose to stay in current lobby.
- Imperialplayer-so and so#2 Chose to stay in current lobby.
- Imperialplayer-so and so#3 Chose to trust in the force.
Well one positive:buyakashak
Most players hate EoR MM.
I kept this message short to increase the likelihood of it being read.
then again not really.
They did give feedback...it comes down to that the Devs are going to implement it. Here is the source:

They are in complete denial and seem to be living in a reality all of their own.
