When looking for a random match, if the matchmaking system finds a match and that match is 3+ levels higher than your own playing level, then an option button appears to accept or decline the match...

Doesn't need to say who the player is you'll be fighting, just that it's 3+ levels higher...

You could even increase the difference to 2+ levels. This would cut down on quitting I would believe and give a better over all game experience...


Tweak option added.

I just tend to watch the levels change in the matchmaking window and also the kind of gear on the mech. If it is too higher or has gear that would make a large difference I simply stop matchmaking and restart.

That's quite a waste of time IMHO. You can sit there with the matchmaking process continuing and if the level comes up too much higher have the option of accept or decline rather than starting over numerous times...

Many times the matchmaking window was looking at 3 higher and 3 lower and I get someone of my level. So repeatedly starting the process over rather than just having the option not to take the match seems like working harder, not smarter...

I personally don't like playing someone lower than me unless they're wanting to play...

Many of you may not know it but in ranges of 20-29, the matchmaking range has been reduced from +/- 4 lvls to +/- 3 lvls.
Even though there were no official announcement about it, it has been in place atleast a month now.

If 4 lvls higher opponent would be too much for you, then just play in range of 20-29.
