Dump your matchmaker whining here. I'll start:
Seriosuly? 9 TDs on the reds and 3 on the greens. I don't even mind TDs being broken, but let's at least keep the playing field level.

When the enemy team gets a 5 man T-54 platoon and we get a 12 t and three ELC's -_-

I was so close to nailing 5 artillerys last night but failed due to own stupidity. I had a tank(T23) that hits on the move pretty good and already had destroyed 2 of them. Then I hit the maps edge and my speed was gone while 3 artillery turds were aiming at me. Not cool.

Does the Type 59 get weighted as a heavy for matchmaking?

The problem I have with matchmaking currently is when I try to play my Tier VIIIs, I will almost always get a couple matches in a session where I am one of the only VIIIs in a predominately tier X and IX lobby. I believe matchmaking should not have a bottom tier unless that bottom tier makes up at least 33% (5 tanks per team) of the game. I say this because my ability to influence or even do damage at all is severely damaged if I am in a stock KV-4 in a lobby with many tier X heavies and TDs running around but without any lower tier targets to fight with. This is especially compounded if I get a bad spawn or have bad teammates. To be clear, I am not talking about being bottom tier in general, I'm talking about being bottom tier and being one of the only bottom tier tanks (1 or 2 per team). A similar problem is when you are bottom tier and the game for some reason does not include a middle tier at all. What I mean is, the game will have tier VIIIs and Xs in a match, but for some reason not tier IXs. This can happen at any tier but I have noticed it predominately at tiers VIII-X. This usually ends up with the VIIIs being demolished because of the power gap.

The problem I have with MM is large platoons messing it up. PAIN did tell me that they're working on a fix when I asked him before the PS4 launch, but he said they wouldn't do anything until the PS4's release so hopefully it'll be soon.

I hope the fix MM, but keep the current platoon size.

That's literally my issue as well. I never play tier 8. It's my favorite and most hated tier. I love it because it's so balanced but I hate it because it's the worst tier to be lower tier in. You literally go from a balanced tier to such an extreme tier. I have always hated it, it's the only tier I refuse to play now. I will play tier 5, 6, 7 and 9. Not 8 though fuck that

4 x T57s platooned last night on Highway (don't remember their clan tag). Holy hell! We actually almost pulled it off, but lost by three tanks. That's a lot of hurt on one side, especially since they were coordinating their reloads at the end of the match.

Four is outrageous. I'm shocked you guys kept it so close.

Four is outrageous. I'm shocked you guys kept it so close. I was in my STB-1 with a Patton, a 13 90 and a E50M and we pushed the West flank really hard taking out a 50 120, T110E5, baby waffle and a E50M and pushed up onto the hill under their cap and took out an E75 camping in the buildings near their cap. By this time the T57s that were in the city rolled back to the ridge by the railroad track and circled around behind their cap. We whittled it down some by taking out one of the T57s and their T-54 light weight, but the other two yolo'd us (the patton and I were the only ones left) once we were on really low health. Once I lost the advantage of the hill my hull armor didn't hold up.
It's been a real rough couple nights of tanking. It's like I'm playing drunk, playing like I did my first 5k battles, or the team folds like a cheap shirt. At least I free XPd to the T-62a so I can really see the difference between the 140 and it.

This usually ends up with the VIIIs being demolished because of the power gap. I agree with all this. Many times I have been the only tier xxx in what ever game. Also my platoon of tier 8s tend to be the only 8s in a tier 9 and 10 game. Its especially bothersome when there were 60+ tier 9s and 10s in the lobby. WTAF MM??

I think a lot of it has to do with server population. While +1 would be ideal, IMHO, there just aren't enough players for it to work correctly.
I also agree that VIII seems to be the hardest to play as far as "real" tiers go, as there are just so many tanks with devastating guns and absurd armor. (The jump from III to V is probably just as big -- if not bigger -- but one doesn't usually play that tier that often outside of premiums, most of which get preferred MM.)
