@Niedzwiedzio Okay, so let's say some MIT/Stanford genius devises the perfect skill assessment and matchmaking algorithm. Let's take that as a given. It will still only work if players are honest and not seeking to undermine everything that sbmm is supposed to do. This is what I mean by, "Can't exist in the real world." You can't stop sandbaggers or smurfs or people who use modded controllers. And those are just the worst offenders off the top of my head. It only takes a handful of them to cause exactly what you're describing. And we have way more than a handful. So unless you're suggesting that Respawn is capable of figuring how to ban someone based on their undetectable evils - I guess just by reading their minds? - then I'm not really sure what it is that you're suggesting.

@reconzeroits simple question what is the purpouse of ranked when in suposed golden lobby i have bronze tier noob as a teammate? are you ea employe shiling for them? im playing this game since s0 and didnt have as much problem with cheaters as im having problem with mm loop (since s10) that is around 7 games in a row with 0 kills or assist then 1 game easy mode 10 kills. and i dont want perfect mm(i know its imposible) but it can be good. other gamec can pull it off so why not this?

    @Niedzwiedzio I've never found any game that could do a credible job after about three months, once the huge initial population starts to decline, once new playlists start to fracture the remaining player pool, and once the cheaters and scumbags set up shop. I guess that's why I'm not so hard on Respawn. But if you've found games that do it better then I'd say you're definitely a step ahead of me. And sorry if it seemed like I was trying to minimize your frustration. We should all be frustrated even though I'm still convinced there are no good solutions to the problems.
