Why can’t you get matchmaking even remotely close, or are you intentionally rewarding better players?
I have a ,75 kdr if I’m lucky and am not good at the game. But every single match am constantly getting in the same lobbyies with 4K 20 bomb preds with tens of thousands of kills.
Which means I get insta killed and can’t even hop on for an hour here and there and have any fun.
I’ve seen the player base stats and know other mediocre players are out there so why the heck can’t I ever get matched with them?
I'm in the same boat. Nonstop master and pred lobbies lol they definitely are trying to please the better players over us Casuals. Look at what they did to bot royale. Humans mixed in. Yuck
Since the start of the season, I've been crushed in every lobby because Axle killed Apex. Win rate 2% and the lobby still looks like this. Let this game burn.
Axle has turned me into ashes. The last two seasons, where I had 30,000 kills and a K/D of 2.6-3.0, now every match I play makes me want to quit after 1 minute.
I could lose for 12 hours in a row and still end up in the same lobby with the same people and three-stacks, where most of the players are Axle, Horizon, or Conduit on controllers.
You can write #skillissue, but this season has absolutely destroyed me. You can't do anything with Caustic if there are two or three Axles running towards you with drones, which Conduit is also healing.
How is it that for a long time, Axle, the top-1 player (in terms of kills on PC), consistently racked up 20-30, sometimes even almost 40, kills per match when playing on a controller, but after switching to MnK, he was terrible? This isn't the only case. Once, Top 1 Newcastle, playing on a controller, consistently hit the Predator. Once, when he challenged for Masters on MnK, he ultimately had to play in a 3-stack so his friends could boost him to Masters. He wouldn't have been able to do that solo.
EA/Respawn - do you still think that matchmaking, Legends balance, and the balance between MnK and controller are okay? Sure... Let's all play with RC Filter and controllers and say we're great. I'm rushing to buy a $500 controller so I can at least have a chance playing in my lobby, where most of the people are them.
I won't write about AA anymore, because I'm not interested. They can have 0.4, 0.6, or 0.9 AA. Let them have all they want, but SEPARATE CONTROLLERS FROM MNK. Everyone's been asking for this for so long, and when you introduced so much more movement, plus Axle... We all see how unbalanced the game is between MNK and controller. Let controllers play together and fix that **bleep** matchmaking.
We're undoubtedly living through the worst of Apex, and I'm not concerned that the player base is higher than it was at its worst. The player base is still relatively low compared to the game's heyday. Secondly, if I have to play with the same people day after day, week after week, month after month, I can actually "FEEL" the increased player base...
Forgive my anger, but I hate it when someone thinks that people are idiots and don't understand anything., and I feel like EA and Respawn are having fun with all the problems this game has been having for years.
I agree entirely about the separating of mnk vs controller. Should be input based entirely. And yeah no, conduit, axle, lifeline combo is absolutely ridiculous. Nonstop Shields health and speed. Literally... LITERALLY. It is near impossible to finish them.
