Are they ever going to improve the matchmaking?

I'm sad they released it this way.

It's just unacceptable that I queue up specifically for english games but nearly every game, get a russian who can't speak english, either on my team or the enemy team. I mean, this just means that the matchmaking is BROKEN. It's just incredibly bad for a match when you can't communicate.

In league this problem isn't anywhere near as serious as long as you don't play on EUNE.

That's because the russians queue in the english matchmaking pool, not because the matchmaking is broken. There's not much they can really do about this.

I know that. I'm still saying they have to fix it since obviously the system is so incredibly easy to work around that it just ends up not working at all.

Why make it say english when it's not english at all but "any language"?

How the hell do you fix it? It's not like you can block Russian IPs from queuing for English language because that would prevent Russian players who legitimately want to and do play in English from doing so.

The only solution I can think of is moving the Russian servers from Sweden to somewhere actually in Russia so Russian players actually get better ping to Russia than EU, rather than them being pretty much the same.

You make it so you can only select one language.

You will always get trolls, be them Russian or not.

But what if I actually want to queue two languages because I'm fine speaking both and just want to get a game faster?

What would you prefer? Region locking? Forcing people to only play with people in their country?

You hurt the honest customer in an attempt to punish the dishonest customer. Haven't you learnt anything from years of DRM. It's the proven method to solving problems.

is that a serious answer people give nowadays

also as i have mentioned before

the secret to dota, and nay! perhaps team games in general is to stack in a group of likeminded friends

I'm suprised people are so adamant when it comes to not playing with russians, I'm usually able to communicate anything relevant to the game, be it through chat wheel/pings or in simple english terms.

I'm convinced that this is because you are in fact psychic and rather than talk just place your thoughts directly into people's heads and make it seem like words. It's the only possibility.

Honestly I don't talk at all while playing Dota, and I don't really respond to other people talking either. It's the only way to keep your sanity on Garena when not playing with friends.

Either way, yes I am serious in away. If people think there's a real problem with people queue'ing multiple languages then they should be limited to one even if that means longer queue times.

I also think there should be a silent queue, where everyone is muted by default.
