Re: Is it just me or has matchmaking got even worse?

@Marge010  I feel like you've made a few of these threads already about the same topic, so there's a strong possibility that rocky has the right of it here. 😛

The better you get at this game the sweatier it gets lol.

@Axs5626Sxa5001Apex & audio issues go together like fish & chips but I also think there is a problem with hit reg whether it's game lag or reducing hit box sizes etc.Regarding match-making issues I'd agree it's probably worse now of any other season also there certainly seems a drop in players whenever I've tried to where I've encountered lobbies filled with as little as 35 players which probably suggests balanced match-making goes out the window in a desperate attempt to start matches.Regardless of how many players are in a lobby when starting a match team-fill (or lack of it) is becoming a joke.I've been encountering situations quite commonly now where even 58-59 players are in a Trios match & I'm still only paired with one other player & then that player usually quits before landing.Surely it's not beyond the logic of Respawn to level out the player count in every match & get rid of the inflexibilty of having 20 teams in every match leaving teams woefully short of players.

@Redmattgame

Yup, I hear you. I’m just providing you my perspective. I’m above average and typically float between Diamond and Masters. I have never achieved Pred. I’m ranked in top 30 in various categories for Pathfinder on console.

My wait times for games are long— the algorithm is CLEARLY trying to pit me against my equals. When I queue with similarly skilled friends, our lobbies are typically 80%plus master/pred (IN PUBS!! This is ridiculous).

When I queue solo, it’s about 50-60% Diamond/Master teams, but my teammates are frequently lower skilled.

This MM structure plus all the issues you mentioned (audio, hit regs, etc) leave me losing A LOT. Overall, I win about 2% of my matches (ranked plus pubs). LMAOOO. I know average players who win more than me.

MM is just so damn disenchanting.

I'm an average player at best but this season has been very inconsistent. I found season 8 and 9 were quite consistent for me in terms of kd ration and wins. This season has been all over the place. I got to a point where I was winning at least once every other day (I play this game 6 days a week) 

Since this event started I don't think I've won 2 games. I only remember winning 1 game and that was a week ago
