    stop beating a dead horse

    How many of are still fighting for regions in North America. All the zones have been taken up, though you can still fight for zones where your faction has not reached 100%.

    Be the first to get 100% and you'll receive 2 pieces of dark matter. Be the last and you'll only get 1 piece. Now I can understand if you want to fight for a region that still has 5-10% to go. It's not an enourmous feat, but if its like 70% then you're better off fighting in new regions.

    Even though the game is about the persistent world war, etc, I play where I can find a game and try to get one where it is close/variant are winning.

    In this thread Jeramiah states that you're not matchmade per district/zones or even regions/continents, you are matchmade with everyone.

    That means if I pick Asia district 16 and you pick Europe district 2 there is a chance we'll still fight together and fight against other people that have picked different regions and districts. If you're not in a squad the chances that you'll fight together with a friend who picked the same place are equal to picking completely different places to fight.

    As I've mentioned in this thread even squads don't need to join the same districts or regions.

    This confusion where people are picking the most heavily contested regions and districts because they think its the best place for a quick matchup needs to be addressed in the final release. I can see places like Russia, Asia, South America and Africa not getting any attention because people think no one plays there and because they don't want to suffer lag they'll think playing there will be more laggy anyway.

    If this continues the Variants will never reach Complete Global Saturation!

    After reading your post, I have started playing in random districts around the globe. I think the game needs more tutorials / information regarding how matchmaking works etc, but I am sure this will be addressed for the final version like other stuff as you said.

    Lol phishfood we just had a game together and just destroyed the enemy team!!! I don't really get the whole world map thing; I just play where good challenges are or where we are winning.

    Those were some great matches but I wish all our opponents weren't so low levelled.

    Actually flagging the territories and i mean all of them will give you 10 dark matter per continent. That is why the variants are winning right now.so 100 percent is good

    Why are the current dark matter scores out of 30? Aren't we trying to get to 110?
