Yes this is another rant thread, and yes this HAS to happen, i'm tired of having to drop 5-15 kills every game just to lose because my teammates cant weaken or damage 1 enemy or kill someone, or just end up dying, OVER AND OVER AND OVER AGAIN, I end up getting killed because the entire team just push me solo (teammates are literally in the house next to me still LOOTING), YES I PING AND YES I SAY IT ON MI, this doesn't happen once, it doesn't happen twice, it happens 95% OF MY GAMES. Talking on mic doesn't make a difference because half of the time they don't listen. YES i'm ALL FOR carrying new people etc but if its every single game then it isn't every once in a while or every 5 games, it is EVERY SINGLE GAME. IF I HAVE 2000+ KILLS with wraith I should not be getting paired up with lifelines or any other type of characters with 20-200 kills EVERY single game.I don't carry enough teammates or i'm trash you say? here's links:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H6VTf_9fVOQhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9K1Tks_UjF4https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jTm1r0wJ-OI&t=13s

@MoNosDirtyGaming I share your frustration with teammates and trying to find players to add to friends can be difficult. If I had one wish for all games it would be a universal friends system of the highest quality. Or at least a really useful friends feature in Apex. I guess we should remember that Apex hasn't been out long so it'll all change as players get better and Apex is developed further.

@warslag The best parts where they fly into skull town and instantly die, then rage quit like it somehow my fault, or the constant mark spamming literally 5 seconds into landing. How is anyone supposed to hear footsteps or help a teammate out if they land right next to two whole squads. Matchmaking definitely has to change from what it is now. I've also noticed that if I start a game with a specific selected character, say for this posts sake, pathfinder, then as soon as I get into the game my other random teammates will choose pathfinder before me. I'm all for letting people choose what they want, but clearly the games set up in such a way that whichever character you choose before the character select screen pops up, the random teammates usually end up picking them (even if its gibraltar).

@MoNosDirtyGamingAnswer to your problem "I always get teamed with bad players when I play with randoms":The majority of skilled players play with premades, whereas new beginners and bad players play alone. Thats why you have a high chance of getting teamed with bad players.Answer to your problem "my team mates wont help me and are just looting when I play with randoms":The majority of skilled players play with premades, whereas new beginners, egoistic players or players with bad game sense play alone. Thats why you have a high chance of getting teamed with players that wont help you.Answer to your problem "my team mates dont listen when I talk in my mic when I play with randoms":The majority of players that cares about team work and have mics play with premades, whereas non-communicative players without mics play alone. Thats why you have a high chance of getting teamed with players that dont listen when you talk.Solution to all your problems:Get some gaming friends already. Such a skilled and hard carrying guy like you cant have much trouble to find many like-minded and skilled players, right? 😇

@Babbediboopi tbh i've only really met around 3 really good people, who were on my level of skill, and they arent on much, but every game one of us drops at least 20 kills per gameBesides that.. I shouldn't be put with random bots who loot 24/7.. You ever been in a fight where you land in skull town, kill 11 people straight and your second teammate (whos apart of your premade) is fighting with you, and every single person you drop, the random squad mate runs to EVERY single box and loots ALL the loot? YEAH I had that today, The random teammate didnt even help with any assists, he took a legendary backpack, legendary attachments, all the light/heavy ammo, didn't even revive me or my friend once, and literally sat there looting. You tell me how this is acceptable .

@MoNosDirtyGamingI know. Whenever I mess around and play totally alone, or with a premade + one filler, the randoms are terrible 9/10 times and usually get 0-300 damage even if we wins the match and he lives during the entire game.What I tried to say, which maybe was unclear since I tried to be funny was the that most people who queues alone are casual and low skill players and thats why you have a high probability of getting them on your team if you play with randoms.

I am glad that you claim to be a highly skilled player while wanting a better match maker.
Most of the time when people ask for a skill based match maker they got replied "git gud noob"...
At any rate you'll be pleased to know that season 2, starting July 2, should have a ranked system! :o

@superlloyd Well when someone like me drops 12kills in a row and my teammates are either dead and spectating me, left the game, looting somewhere, or dont even have any assists and below 100 damage by the time i've either won the game for us or died, I'd hardly call myself a 'noob'.

@SethCurry As long as they push out good content, and not slowly dripfeed it like gta does, the game shouldn't die. Season 1 has been boring, just because of the fact that it took so long to level up, and once you reached max level for the free and season pass tiers, there was nothing else giving you rewards, so there's not really any incentive to keep playing except to raise your kill meter.

I don't feel as though this game should have solo's, just because of the fact that everyone will mostly pick one of the four main characters (wraith, pathfinder, octane, lifeline), that's because of the small hotboxes, which i'm sure you already know.. the lowest they should go is duos, since the games heavily based around the currently 8 characters in total.

I've found that in fortnite, you mostly get bots in squads, but in duo's you get better teammates, since they tend to have a mic more often.

I actually would not mind seeing a 2/3/4/6/8 squads mode, no other BR game has that, except for the 50v50 etc, it would make more sense since theres going to be a new character, hopefully people dont quit while we're in there, but it would also create for some CRAZY fights, Imagine fighting a team of 8 people and you have another 2 teams of 8 people on your left and right, it would feel like ground war from WW2.
