@andre1hhh I thought matchmaking got better for ranked when I was in the Rookie and Bronze rankings, but nope. As soon as I hit Silver, I get to go up against Plat and up players, while my teammates play like a bunch of bots. What made it worse, was that my teammate's ranks were showing up as Silver and Gold, some of them were Plat players.
EA/Respawn said that they made the matchmaking better and removed the hidden MMR, but as of right now, the game still feels like it has that broken MMR mixed with a bit of EOMM. I say that because my first match of the day, I got two bots, and they both died horribly, and I respawned them, in which they ran off as solos and died again. Then my second match, I was given 2 different Silver 2 players, and they weren't "pros" by any means, but they stuck with each other, and me as a team, and in the end, we actually had won the match.
There won't be a 3rd match, at least not today, because I know a win means I get teammates who are without a doubt a bot, and the enemy team would be a bunch of Masters or Preds. I'm not in the mood to get curb stomped, so I'll be ending on a win for now.
Different season, same matchmaking issues.
Edited 1: 3 hours later, I decided to get back on, and I was getting all the bots as teammates, while the enemy teams were master players in silver rankings.
So, just as expected, I get thrown into harder lobbies just because I had won a match. How fun. It also came with extreme lag, zero audio, and a popup that said, "we want your opinion", as the currency in the top right start loading with the tabs grayed out when I got sent back to the lobby for the 6th match.
In other words, Apex is speedrunning me uninstalling the game.
Edited 2: After getting obliterated for 4 matches, it put me in a ALGs match, where the last 7 squads were fighting in the end rings, like I didn't leave a POI for more than 10 minutes because everyone kept 3rd partying. Ended up placing second, but like... this isn't "silver" lobbies, this is diamond and up lobbies, so why am I forced to grind out harder lobbies in a lower rank?
- Midnight97462 years agoHero+@andre1hhh Yeah, pubs is a different thing. Realistically you shouldn't be going up against those players that often.
@Anjunakrokus Actually no, Rookie and Bronze was a climb to get out of, it just felt different as I started on day 2 or so of the season. So, I was actually in lobbies with higher skilled players. What had helped is that you don't start losing points until you reach silver.
