Old v New Profile Accuracy
Has anyone noticed in Apex, when using a new profile with the same setup as your old profile that hits knocks and kills seem to be greater. Apart from appearing as a beginner to others and dealing wi...

Assuming your not though, what you describe is known as smurfing. It is the act of playing a game on an account with a skill level that is lower than your actual skill level. Almost all online games employ some form of matchmaking that establishes a skill curve in game so newer players play against other newer players. The matchmaking in Apex has been thought by many to include too large of a range on the high end, pitting average and mediocre players against those far outside their skill tier. For some this is a game breaking flaw. For others this establishes a challenge to improve to keep up.
It should be stated that smurfing is generally frowned upon, as it creates an unfair environment for new players. With that being said though, even on a new account, if you play at the same level of skill, the matchmaking system will be sorting you into the same lobbies as your old account in fairly short order.
- @blkarmphoenix None of that. I just want to play. I dont want to loose progress on my main account as it doesnt make sense. I play which ever mode accepts me faster. That's what I do. Ranked or not. Apex are not fixing issues. I play while unable to holster. Amongst other things.Try that for a year or more. All the bugs came out when I got fiber, as in i notice them more. If I create a new a profile in the hope it resets something, it's what I need to do. If someone is better than me they prove it. Im perfectly happy dropping a gun for a respawn or giving up self rez to a more experienced player in the hope he remembers my gesture. It pays off too. I just feel the game is broken somehow. I dont play premade teams as I prefer the flexibility and I'm often surprised. This is a better way for me to understand my "level". Any one can pair up with great players and hit top ranked faster or more consistently. Why bother I say? Thats my rant. Thanks anyway
- @evandave34 not gonna lie, I had a hard time understanding where you stand with the game or even what the point you're trying to get across is...
But if I take a crack at it, you don't think putting you in a place that is difficult even though it's based on your skill level is much fun/fair/ or welcoming?? If so, eh, you won't get far on skill only downing and going against "fresh" players.
