This whole thread is hilarious. Why are you matchmaking for this man on the internet? 😆

welp

a few hours after they implemented cross DC matchmaking in FFXIV, the login servers are just entirely down

all this says is that a valve dev used chatgpt as a search engine to find out about an algorithm from 1955 and then he used it for matchmaking

splatoon 3 matchmaking...

Even funnier learning that Bum is a former baseball player. God, I miss the real silly Japanese matchmaking.

There is one currently untested lobby design that I would like to see attempted. In theory, it addresses the issue of automated matchmaking falling apart due to off peak hours and poorly tuned matching logic.
every day i cry a lil that arcsys didnt put @szego.ca's lobby design in strive

No way...

Some people really want to use others to get ahead in life.

Others need to be used to get off.

Matchmaking the two is NP-hard.

she saw how many connections i have and knew i didn’t need any help in the matchmaking department

Love how this article is just lying

A developer saying he used ChatGPT as a search engine to research matchmaking algorithms is not “generative AI being used in development”.

I do love social media friend matchmaking

A matchmaking app for giants and tinies!

Only, it installs itself onto the tinies phones without being asked, and if a giant shows an interest in them, it doesn't give them an option to decline, and will broadcast their address to the giant.

cross dc matchmaking on jp methinks

the matchmaking got revamped around july of this year. I would hope to god its not in the codebase

Kinda funny how I never hear anyone talk about Valve's genAI usage in regards to Deadlock...

A Valve engineer used ChatGPT to find a new matchmaking algorithm for Deadlock, and now it's in the game
Valve is one of many developers using generative AI behind the scenes.

According to all known laws of aviation, there is no way Ace Combat 8 Online should be good. Its matchmaking and progression are dogshit. The game, of course, is fun anyway, because Project Aces doesn't care what gamers think is impossible.
