Ezzyy... I never said your war was a fair match up. Don't be so hostile when someone is trying to help you. lol
Cartels are matched based on Compound level, average player level, rating and win/loss record. Don't be so sure you know what the primary factor is. Mismatches occur all the time, the better your cartel the more likely you are too see one(in your favor or against you). Thing is FTX can't fix it, they've tried and no matter what they do some people aren't happy. They used to match only cartels that had very close stats, but then the problem was cartels were waiting for days to land a war and always got the same opponents. Currently, matching is geared toward short waits. They have changed the matching parameters several times since the game started. People want equal compounds, equal average level, equal ratings, no one dropped and a short search. It is impossible for FTX to provide all of that. Should they dump Rating from the equation, that's a good question but not what I was trying to get at....
What I'm really trying to tell you is to get stronger because things will only get harder for you and your cartel. You will only see more and more cartel rocket launchers, and soon you will see a nerve cannon too. You need your highest level players to hit other players, not take out the compound. When you lose 9 of 10 wars is not all FTX's fault because you had 9 mismatches, what it means is your cartel players are not strong enough for your compound level and rating.
You keep asking about my credentials... I'm TURF HOGS and ALITA DE MOSC@. I've been everything from Capo to Recruit at various times. I'm not going to argue with you, I'm trying to help a guy who I empathize with. I remember the day I was Capo of my old cartel Chapo Gods and we ran into our first Cartel Rocket Launcher. It was very ugly! We got hammered because we didn't know how to handle it. That's the day I learned feugos are for the compound. Lol
