Same here. Duals.

As far as I know how the matchmaking system works, the system evaluates your combat value based on the last few games. So if you've been jumping into crowded places for the last few rounds and dying almost immediately, that means you're weak and from now on you'll be matched with noobs who don't know what's going on here and are running around like bots around the map. If you are not ultra pro you will never get out of this hole because the bots will drag you down. Your frustration will grow up and u will eventually uninstall this game. Like i just did!

@Qbikk87You are correct SBMM is fake. It is EOMM where it looks at last few matches.

- If you stop playing a while you're thrown into easy lobby.
- If you constantly die you're thrown into easy lobby. So you'll see some people suicide after landing to register the death.
- You win a round. Guaranteed you'll get into difficult lobby next one. At that point stop playing for 15 mins.

The chaos at the moment is the rank soft reset seems to have reset high ranked players too far down so they're mixed in with lower ranks in match making. Soft reset should only push higher ranked players a certain number of divisions so they're not mixed in with bronze. i.e. soft reset Gold 2 demoted to Silver 4.

Answer is to simply stick to casual mode. At least no penalty for leaving. Never play rank with randoms. I used to play rank. Now can't be bothered anymore and never got past Diamond.

There are only a finite amount of stats if SBMM was true. Very unlikely they're collecting below in real-time across all accounts and match make real time on that. Proof is in the fact that each lobby is up and down like a yo yo.

Kills
deaths
KDR
Win
loss
win/loss ratio

I don't buy the whole KDR, win/loss rate. If I suicide multiple times, no fill squad to not inconvenience others or stop playing for half hour. Easy lobby.

@PeterN_UK "Or if you choose a server with really off peak local time like 3am/4am you will be against more casual players and not planned premade squads who mostly play 6pm to 11pm. That works too if you sacrifice some latency."
Thats partly a reason why a lot of players think they got cheated by bullets that hit them behind cover. Imho there has to be a ping threshold like in any other game that uses some form of delag. most games i know cut it at 120ms. Above that it gets only worse.
