Hidden-Elo/ MMR in Publics/ Normals?

so, i actually assumed there is no matchmaking in normal games, but lately, to be precise since yesterday, it feels like my opponents got significantly better. Im usually (kind of "effortlessly") averaging 3-4 kills in S2 but since yesterday, im absolutely struggling. I dont feel like im playing any different but damn, people being precise as *. Never had a bad streak like that and we played for a couple of hours. today feels the same. Am i just unlucky or is there really some kind of mmr- based matchmaking.

Cheers and thanks in advance.

PS: and no, im not within that "beginner"-range, lvl 1-10 or whatever

    @Twistalululu You assumed correctly. There is no matchmaking in non-ranked mode. It might seem like it but there isn't.
  • The game can just be brutal at times. Whether it's in game circumstances or just lobby after lobby of strong players.

    I generally avg between 6-9 kills a game and there's times where i've barely scraped 5 kills in 5 games lmao.

    As it is with everything in this game...it's all just luck of the draw. 😛

  • I feel the same way but it feels like everyday is different, starting to belive its my internet speeds

    Yesterday, i was tearing it up, had 5 or 6 in a row with 5-6 kills, 2 wins, it was nice

    Today, struggled to get 750 damg daily done in 10 games

    Its either me or the game itself thats just very inconsistent

    And yesterday i felt like i was able to strafe/crouch past (some) bullets

    Today, no matter what i did it seemed the opponent was 100% accurate ever single game

    I gave up on trying to understand, without some type of response to all these posts from the devs

    The only diffrence from yesterday to today, is today my kids are here and there using the computer and tablets... so leads me to belive its my internet speed

    @SpineStomp_v4gr I jumped on for the first time in over a month. Exactly the same experience as you. First few games I could take damage and recover. I felt like I was strafing and actually dodging bullets. Some games actually felt a little to easy (like I was on the good side of connections).

    Then came the games that I'm melted in a second with what feels like 100% accuracy, frame rate drops and lag. Nobody else on my connection all night. Just my ps4. The game is just hugely inconsistent right now. I'll just take it for what is... Something to pass an hour or so but my grind to finish the battle pass and to unlock skins/crafting matts is done.

  • Lately (this whole current week actually) i did not encounter any connection issues and felt my gaming experience was great again but for god sake, two and three weeks ago has been terrible and the game challenged myself really hard.

    My biggest issue, once again, are the bad teammates. Looking forward to join forces with @Silz616

    @AWOL_312 The connections have improved for me, but still not very consistent.

    I'll be on this week mate.... We'll squad up 🙂
