@xOFFICIIALx There are a lot of PVP games out there with a LOOOOOOOOOOTTTT less players and the queues aren't problematic or too long.
- 7 years agoThey don't have skill based match making.....which is the what my statement is based off of.

Overwatch has skill based matchmaking and like 7 game modes at any given time + custom games and matchmaking doesn't take too long in general even late at night, and people claim it's a dead game.

There are many thing to consider
- whether match making is a good idea (I think it's good)
- how to measure skill
- MOST IMPORTANTLY how it is implemented
How it is implemented can change everything.
While all this discussion is mostly moot since the Apex dev team probably already have an opinion and a plan of doing (or NOT doing) anything....
I will suggest a possible implementation which would have little downside and bring some benefits.
If instead of waiting for 60 players for a match, the server wait for 300 people, queue time will probably multiply by 5 at most, i.e. 25 seconds instead of 5...
Then it could group people into newbie (level less than 20) and then order then by average weapon accuracy. and then slice evenly the sorted set. This will be quick while being loosely skill based and still having game with very good player and bad player together once in a while, which seems very dear to some.
