Congrats you lost another player

I give up game is a joke my teammates every game are below level 50 and have less than 100 damage while I have 2K+.every match. This game is the farthest thing from skilled based matchmaking that I have ever seen. Skilled based matchmaking should start with the teammate you get. I get level 30 with 20 kills and the champion squad is 2 apex predators. Can only 1vs2 every squad for so long getting constantly third fourth and fifth partied. I’ll be back when you add solos which have been asked for since launch.

    I'm not buying it that the playerbase has dwindled to the point where the only good players play in premades and everyone else is seemingly level 50.

    Noobs should be isolated to noob lobbies for their own benefit and ours. Seems like new players win once and they're just chucked in  the deep end.

    I don't know about everyone else but i would happily wait a bit longer to join a match if i knew the entire lobby was roughly the same skill level...my team included.


    I don't mind about skill based matchmaking. But I don't buy why there should be one like this. There is ranked which is basically what you guys asking. So I guess issue is in ranked not in matchmaking. 

  • @PROInD3  I get what tou're saying but it really is besides the point.

    Respawn introduced SBMM to make for a fairer gaming experience in public lobbies. On paper that's great and i'm all for it. In reality it just equates to anybody who's half decent and solo queueing essentially being punished  for having any skill by being forced to carry sub par teammates every damn game.

    It either needs to be truly balanced or outright removed. I can think of no other game with SBMM that feels as heavily tilted as this game on such a consistent level.

    This game requires so much teamwork. So it's really hard for new players to get threw this beginning stuff. I would say issues is way deeper than just a "skill based matchmaking" 

    We need something like voice chat in game and please don't tell me that we already have one xD because the one we have is worse than actually typing in chat. Fix voice chat so you can communicate with low skill players so they will not die in one sec and leave the game.

    But I agree with you carrying in this game is like 90% of matchmaking solo que. Going for 4k damage while teammates sitting with 20-200 damage and leaving in first 10 seconds of match

  • @PROInD3  No you're right the game chat is garbage lmao, me and my duo used to stick to party chat out of necessity, he has a strong scottish accent and it just comes out as white noise through in game audio chat.

  • @AvengeLightz Just switch to WZ, surely Apex is better in terms of balancing and creativity but the SBMM in it ruins the overall experience.

    I’m not gonna be telling you WZ is the perfect game, it has its flaws indeed but SBMM doesn’t exist in it, at least not yet.
  • No need to announce it. Just go. That's like when people leave FB groups. Just BE lucky nobody cares to flame here for it. xD

    In this topic he explained why he is leaving?! And i completely agree with him. SBMM in pubs is disabled, or broken and devs must do something.
