Anytime during the day, it ALWAYS takes 20 minutes to find a ranked match, Lobby matches are always dead as well, whats the deal?
(Re-post due to database corruption, from memory)
Several factors can play a role in why you can't find people online to play with:
- Ranked is less popular compared to Lobby.
- In case you're playing Xbox: It has a smaller playerbase than PSN to my knowledge.
- A lot of people may have moved from DOA to MKX recently.
- DOA Online is pretty bad in general, when you talk about the game's netcode. It can turn people off.
Good point. It is indeed true that a good amount of of people play in private lobbies; at least, a lot of my friends do. Also, there may be entirely full lobbies which won't appear when you search for them. Keeping these factors in mind (i.e. private lobbies and full lobbies) may lead to an underestimation of the total amount of players.Would like to add that some people don't want to play in a lobby full of random people, then wait four matches just to play one. It's not necessarily dead online, people are just playing in private lobbies.
5 groups, there's PC too.Its not MKX fault. On old gen agony started with LR release on next gen. Players became divided into 4 groups.
The thing I don't like about throwdown is that the game will match me up with players way above my skill level, which breaks my comfort zone. And the ones who are my skill level will often not be available to play at that time.I usually have more luck with throwdowns. Sitting in training mode practicing and taking throwdowns gets me many more matches than going to ranked match.
