Bloodhunt Matchmaking Adjustment

Sharkmob is dropping a new update in its Vampire: The Masquerade battle royale Bloodhunt tomorrow morning. This update will make some changes to the game's back-end matchmaker, adjusting bot-filled modes specifically. The idea is to make matchmaking less restricted and more dynamic. That way, if there aren’t quite enough players, it won’t take too long for a match to fill.

As noted, this impacts bot modes only, so this is the way it will work: New players will always be matched with each other, with bots only supplementing matches. Low-to-mid tier will “likely” match with each other and hi-mid-to-high tier players will “likely” match with each other. If there’s a smaller selection of players, then low-to-high players have a chance of ending up matched. Of course, bots will fill the rest of the spots.

The news was announced via Twitter, which also allowed Sharkmob to answer a player’s question. For those wondering, this will not impact regional matchmaking. As noted in the response, the game is currently set to expand regions in low-pop areas to get more players together. That said, NA and EU players can generally expect only to be matched in their region.
