Does anyone understand how skill based match making works ?

Its still in pubs isnt it, or have they changed it? Im trying to work out how the game always gives me team mates who barely know how to aim, or grab an armour, heal up, follow ping or anything. DE...

@DarthValtrex So do you know what the SBMM parameters are? This is what im trying to work out.

So say in your region where you play, would a level 10 be matched in your game ? In my level 10 account I have a 5.5kd and highest kills 19 and had a fair few wins in a row, but the level 10, 20s, 30s, 200s I get feel like they dont even know how to play the game. How does a level 80 plus guy run around with no armour after I pinged like 4 or 5 different ones and then runs into a fight and die instantly?

@johnmiceter No they have never released any specifics on what SBMM parameters are, I have ideas based on what I see in game. But it would just be speculation. I think they are fairly tight lipped with SBMM because they don't want people trying to find ways around it.

Lots of people are going to have bad rounds and lots of people are not going to be posting 5.5KD. So the skill gap between you and 99% of the player base is going to be large no matter what lobby you end up in.
