Im playing or try to play every day. No one is playing!! Is it a problem with hawken servers or what_

Event 2 was always full and we had a servers list...

Maybe make it a open beta until release will help _

I'd say it's more likely to be a case of matchmaking being rather fond of putting you into an empty server.

It is take awhile to find a death match on the East coast servers.  When I do find a game it is never full, lucky if there are 4 people on.  I have not been playing Team DM because I am trying out new mechs so I don't know if the same is happing with those matches.  It just seemed that Beta 1 & 2 had more people playing.  Maybe people are starting to lose interest in the game because there is only 3 maps.  I was hopping for some new maps in Beta 3.

Matchmaker also leaves me with the impression that nobody is playing.

I'd be willing to bet that if Adhesive weren't getting the data they needed right now, or if player count was down, they wouldn't just let it fly, especially during the weeks leading up to open beta. I haven't not managed to get into a game yet, but this might just be due to the hours I play.

Combination of Matchmaking system and the time of day. Earlier in the day the majority of people are working or at school depending where you are playing from.

Personally I stopped testing three days ago due to all the troubles with matchmaking. Once that's fixed I will return, but not before.

2/3's of us can't play either nerfs made most quit or 32 bit memory crash makes this game simply unplayable period that is why. i was in alpha cb1,2 played this game alot!! cb3 i have hardly touched simply put really bad nerfs and "out of memory crash"

[JuiceBox]

I don't play due to crappy matching

Way to be, Beta Testers.  Keep giving up all that non-participation, that helps the devs so much.

Last week, I ran into a number of Missile Assault games in a row that were unpopulated, but TDM and DM are almost always full rosters.  Seige is hit or miss.  This week, however, there's always plenty of games available.

Been playing a lot less due to broken matchmaking and no autobalance.

Not going to be able to give much useful feedback from a 5 player game consisting of a 15, 13, and 8 versus a 4 and a 0.

further testing shows you can't join a team if it has more players, so they fixed that bit, at least. Team swap is only enabled into teams with fewer or equal numbers of players. The problems you've been experiencing are all people leaving the server and not being replaced, not them swapping over to the winning side.

I simply am having problems finding games with people in them and often just dumped in to an empty server or lobby. Other times, when I'm able to find a game, the levels are very unbalanced, as mentioned above by LunaticCalm. It seems as though matchmaking is simply not working for whatever reason. Perhaps the patch tonight will address that as people who selected "all regions" weren't getting properly matched up_

Anyways, I hope to see it addressed. I look forward to playing it, but it's much more fun with a full server. About the only thing I can find at all is Deathmatch and that's because you play with only a few people.

I'm able to consistently find TDM games but not much in missile or siege.

Are you daft or something_ did you not even read what i said_ ill make it larger for you  ***THIS GAME IS UP PLAYABLE FOR ME AND 1000'S OTHERS DUE TO THE WIN 32 OUT OF MEMORY CRASH. THIS IS NOT SOMETHING WE CAN FIX ON OUR OWN AND REQUIRES AN EFFORT BY THE DEVELOPMENT TEAM TO FIX THIS ISSUE!!! THEREFOR RUNNING THIS GAME ONLY TO CRASH UNDER 120 SECONDS LATER IS FUTILE AND POINTLESS AND MAKES IT ***IMPOSSABLE*** FOR US TO TEST ANYTHING AT ALL [REPEAT] "ANYTHING AT ALL" I don't know how much clearer i can make this just...try to keep up sparky ok__

[Hipnox]

Constant crashes after every single match, coupled with the inability to select the map i want to play put me off the game.

Waiting for Open Beta

[The_Silencer]

I wonder if most of the crashes were caused due to that nasty chat issue which, IIRC, has been already fixed by the devs via this latest patch of today...

Nope people still switch sides a lot. Just ask AJK because people switch sides just to be on his team. So....

did you try this with the latest patch_ The one they released today_ Because I did and can't do this via the user interface button.

Unless there's a hidden console command they put in that let's you do this, you shouldn't be able to right now.

Nope I haven't played in about 3-4 days...since the last time we played together. So I will make sure to hop on tonight and see if Matchmaking is better. If not....well back to my hiatus.
