Player distribution graph
For me 95% of all the games I play is like this: Does that mean I am constantly at the "bottom of the barrel" ?

I commented on this, however the moderators removed my post.
The only thing this players skill distribution graph does.... is literally show you how broken their MM actually is. Its comical really, that after years of thousands upon thousands of players complaining about disgusting MM - Respawn puts out a graph proving exactly that hahaha.
My graphs almost always have me in pred lobbies and telling me that my team is the worst in the lobby - a lobby I am not supposed to be lumped inside in the first place.
I ask you Respawn... do you really think when I see that graph, and you tell me "heh, your in the toughest lobbies with preds and masters, and you are the worst team and don't stand a chance, good luck, have fun" - what makes you think for a second I'm going to punish myself and continue on without backing out and trying again??????
One session I had was somewhere between 8 and 10 games, everyone of them the graph telling me I'm fodder for highly skilled players to have some fun, backed out of everyone and eventually turned off the game. That was my session in a nut shell.
I guess I can say, thank you - for at least letting me know ahead of time that you are setting me up for not just utter failure, but pure humiliation as well, and giving me the option to back out before that happens. Much appreciated (sarcasm)
I agree with you about being thankful (sort of) that they put the graph up so that at least I know when to back out and try again without just giving it up to a three stack with a combined skill level that exceeds my own by an order of magnitude.
And yes, putting the graph in took balls on their part because it really does confirm everything we've already known forever: it's bad, it's getting worse, and their supposedly "more granular" matchmaking seems to be down to just two or three buckets instead of the promised "more than five." I look at the wide span of the grey areas in these curves and about ninety percent of the time they are so wide that it really is just "everyone to the left of the peak in one bucket, and everyone to the right of the peak in the other," with maybe a third bucket that encompasses the top 3% of players plus whoever is lower skilled that they have to hijack into the match in order to fill it. I pity those poor **bleep**.
Honestly I was quite surprised that they did implement the graph.
And sometimes it feels like there are only 2 buckets that meet and overlap sometimes in the middle.
Either way, its a cancer. But at least I can find out ahead of time that i'm doomed instead of finding out the hard way lol.
