No idea, my friend gave up for the day, had the same problem. The few wins either of us had were absolute stomps, had one myself where I jumped on the back of the payload, held right click shield, Bastion next to me just cut through the other team without stopping from start to finish. The loses have been equally ridiculous, try to get to the objective but none of the team follows or realises to be there to contest it so they walk through pretty much unopposed.

I just had a match where he had it set up in the back of Volskaya (or whatever the Russian map is called.) Used Pharah and took it out while it was distracted by something else.
And he already has one back up by the time I'm on the ground. Like really?

I seem to get mostly stomps, or get stomped. There never seems to be any middle ground.

I played ~50 matches per day for the 1st 2 weeks and then slowed down/halted. Waiting for ranked now. Solo queue times were pretty high. 3minutes +. Not all my friends I play with are that...dedicated. Think I'm level 125 now. Will resume the grind when season 1 is live. Been playing Legion beta in the meantime lol

Had a game today that started out 5v6 and actually finished before a 6th person was added to our team. I really don't know what to say at this point about this matchmaking.
That lvl1 turret is pathetic. Torb can't even upgrade it to lvl2, if it gets damaged. Did you ignore the torb? This is what I see people do all the time when I play torb. They ignore him. They shoot the turret, but don't kill Torb.
Besides, if the turret was at the same place you can expect it to be there. Easy kill. It won't surprise you. This is why as Torb I run around a lot and if turret gets destroyed I put it in completely another place depending on situation.
I too have felt the sting of joining a losing game at the closing seconds. Real bummer. I also understand to some extent why support isn't popular. When you're playing with a poor team, or one that isn't particularly aggressive, Mercy feels like torture. Love her kit but she's so dependent on her team to perform it can be really frustrating to stick with her and not just switch to Zarya and say, "Screw it! No support for you!"
My friend and I duo Q as well. We are @ around 57% win rate but the matchmaking in this game is such a huge turnoff. I just want a competitive match but more often than that its a curbstomping one way or the other. We've actually started just backing out of games in an effort to find a competitive room. I hate having to resort to backing out but getting dumped into rooms where your team insists on running 2 snipers and tracer gets old real quick. If we can't can't find a good room after a few tries we just call it for the night. The matchmaking in this game is just soul crushingly awful.
I haven't exactly confirmed if getting back filled into a losing game counts towards your statistics, but if it did, that would be a GOOD thing. We all get about half wins and half losses, and making the losing half easier with a game less than 30 seconds is much more time efficient than getting stomped over a full game.
I've gotten like 9 losses to 1 win for the past two days. Pulling enough medals to know that I'm not the one completely sinking the team and the game. There's no MMR in this game. None. It's all random.
I've had some fun today and counted the 15 or so games I played.
In each and every one of them someone picked a Genji. In more than half of them we also had a Tracer. In 99% (random stat, true nevertheless) of these occasions they sucked at either hero.
Or the Widowmakers who snipe 2 guys in 16 minutes of gameplay.
Playing 4v6 is getting dull in objective based maps. Give these guys TDM.

Indeed. It puts you roughly with people around your level, or the average level of the team, and then fills the gaps with randomness.
people that play with keyboard and mouse on console need to have their consoles removed... also a team member of mine got a msg in ps4 from one guy in the oposite team telling him to get cancer after our team, mostly my teamm8 and i (pharah/mercy combo), destroyed them in temple of anubis. we laughed so much afterwards.
someone else might have gotten it wrong.
Nerfing Torbjorn won't happen unless Blizzard cracks and caters to the lowest common denominator, which they seem to be trying to avoid, he's garbage in games with quality players.

Playing with KBM on console sounds hilarious, makes me want to try it out on PS4 lmao, that's amazing.
