I just uninstalled Apex
Every single one of my friends quit this game recently. And the reason for it is broadly the same. This game isn't even "playable" Anyone logging on to Apex will casually find themselves spending 45...

The people who are against SBMM should voice their discontent by putting the game down. Nothing speaks louder than lost $$$. I’m approaching this point.
I understand that’s hard because Apex is a great game with awesome mechanics, but when something becomes un-fun and the Devs don’t address it, it’s time to speak with your wallet and spend your time doing things you enjoy more.

First of all, this thread is not about SBMM. But about toxic quitters/terrible teammates.
And second, all you SBMM whiners are a bunch of liars. Platinum games were significantly harder for me and my friends as a Diamond players.
What's actually going on is that scores of gold and plat players get dumpstered by other gold and plat players. Yet keep claiming that everyone they lose to is a predator 20bomb 4K badge player because losing to a gold player would be too embarrassing to admit.
This thread is all over the place 😃
That being said, I wanna jump in on some action and say how I use my dresser as my PC desk 😳 I don't have much room in my room for a desk with all the consoles taking up space and my giant bed that takes up half my room, sadly I live in a box
As for Fortnite, I had to get all the star wars skins because what star wars fan wouldn't, especially Kylo Ren aw🙌 That skins is my fav and the only reason I still play fornite now, to flex and see my boi in action!
PC personally I bought a premade and it has pretty decent specs, for a 1.3K PC I would hope so though. 2060GTX i believe with the basic 16 ram and 1 1/2 tera. Keep it by the window so the winter can keep it cooled better considering how hot it can get inside my room.
As for the OP leaving, I hope you do return for next season and if you play on console (XBOX), let's get in a few games. I myself pretty much only come back for the BP to complete it but recently a tournament opened up nearby and me and my team are in it so gotta get better now if I wanna win that prize shhmoney. 😎

Are you pro SBMM, or at least the current state of SBMM for Apex?
I bring up SBMM because it’s come up in this thread, and subjectively speaking, its something that has me close to “uninstalling apex” as the thread is titled. I won’t speak for everyone, but my public lobbies consist of a majority of Diamond and Predator contrails. Even if I am that caliber of player, its stressful if I’m only ever playing people of that skill level; I literally can’t make a mistake or I’m dead. It’s a tiring scenario.

Even PS4 needs to fill spots with platinum players for ranked matches. I don't understand how it's even statistically a possibility to have majority Dia/Pred player games, every single game when those players are only 2.3% of the player population for those two ranks combined.
All these people on ryzen and gtx 1080 and then there is me rocking an mx150
@SS_Mabezan if it runs, its not buns 🤔

I think you are absolutely right! Its statistically not possible and it is not happening in reality!
I only would be convinced if there are real gathered data, but this is difficult to do:
It is pretty hard to spot and analyse all contrails in a match!
And you had to write your result down and get results of at least 20 matches in a row!
And you had to repeat this at least for 1 week every day at 3 different times...
You should also note the stats of the champion team and the team that killed you.
Again you need to do this for 20 matches in a row, 3 times a day, 7 days in a row.
And you might need to get more data for the weekends.
Maybe if you have ALL THIS data you can caculate some more reliable statistics.
But do not wonder if the confidence intervalls / standard deviation is too big to get a technicallly valid result.
Sadly, there are many threads against SBMM where this doubtable statements about contrails and rank of the teams are spreaded...
AGAIN MORE INFORMATION FROM EA AND RESPAWN ABOUT SBMM, CACULATION AND SOME STATISTICS WOULD BE GREAT!- @Wingmannedbro
You’re response is that my public lobbies aren’t filled with a high majority (probably about 80%) of Diamond + Predator contrails but this is entirely the case. I really don’t know what else to tell you.
My public matches are FAR FAR FAR More grueling than they were before Duos (I am assuming some sort of tweak to SBMM was made around that time). I would win plenty and lose plenty, now I spend the majority of my time losing, which is fine so long as the SBMM algorithm starts placing me where I really belong or a tweak is made to the system.
We can go back and forth on this but it would be a waste of time. The important thing is that further tweaks to SBMM need to be made or it needs to be removed from pubs all together. Give all of the SBMM supporters the option to play ranked (sbmm) exclusively. This will ensure they are always playing people of the same skill.

The problem with ranked is that IT IS NOT SKILLBASED.
NO IT ISN'T!
Why?
Because you get points for every match regardless how bad you play.
Just 1 kill and woops you are positiv in points.
Even if you just do 1 damage to that enemy, if you get the kill you get rewarded...
But even worse: In ranked there is no possibility to lower your rank!
You are stuck with too strong enemys and get overpowered every match.
STUPID SYSTEM!
Why not let me go back to bronce?
And why am I paired with gold players 4 levels higher than I am?
The low player numbers and long waiting times just show that ranked is booring and obsolete after your eached your max level...
SBMM is more flexible! If you play bad, after 5 matches you see your oponents getteing weaker.
If you play good you get harder oponents. Why not?
Sealclubbing and pubstomping has finally ended! Get used to it...
BUT I HAVE AN IDEA:
Use SBMM for ranked, and give all sealclubbers and pubstompers the random mode!
