SBMM and how to end it
***before you mention player retention, our bullets haven’t been registering for an entire week, what does that do for player retention? Cod pubs never had sbmm, everyone loved those games***** So...
Forum Discussion
@apostolateofDOOM nope i was diamond last season. im not touching ranked til all these preds are out of my games. doesnt matter, i cant even play pubs without the same thing happening. trust me bro. u dont have a point lol. i shouldnt have to have friends to win
@IlIlIIllIlIlIl But you want preds in new players games?
You said it yourself that you get slaughtered and don't get chance to improve (which you can) so how do you think someone on their first day will feel and how do you think that will effect the game in the future.
You should have teammates to compete in higher lobbies in a team game otherwise you'll plateau where you currently are and I do have a point but you obviously don't get it.

- @apostolateofDOOM He doesn't have the slightest idea what SBMM does.
@apostolateofDOOM
Like many people who are against SBMM have suggested, there SHOULD be SBMM for new players up to a certain point. New players definitely need a space to learn the game.
But after that— random populated lobbies would benefit the bulk of the community.
Why?
Because random lobbies result in an OVERALL experience that is consistently less grueling. Sometimes you will play players of higher skill and sometimes you will play players of less skill (unless you occupy the very very bottom of the skill pool).
At the end of the day this isn’t about maximizing the enjoyment of everyone. Its a marketing strategy to make the overall experience easier for low skilled players. Why? Because if they are winning matches they will be more prone to spend their money.@apostolateofDOOM did you not see the picture posted in my first post? why do you force people to hold your hand thru arguments?
if youre going to constantly gate keep ideas and argue everything on the forum with the idea in your head that youre already right, you should at least not make people repeat themselves and points that have already been made, imagine me having to explain something to you that ive explained 90 times over on this same post
unless the playerbase has dwindled down far more than i have suspected, you would rarely see preds in your game with no sbmm as opposed to me seeing them nearly every game because i dont play like a bot
@DankTolietI definitely agree it needs some work.
@IlIlIIllIlIlIl I'm not forcing anyone to do anything. Maybe YOU are the one that thinks you're right and others see my reasoning and are more inclined to agree? If they disagree with anything I have said, including yourself, then I'm happy to discuss any points made and without any of the condescending attitude or immature personal attacks you like to give everyone that disagrees with you.
@Axs5626Sxa5001I have made this case before actually and I think an opt in/out feature would be a great solution.
I personally see the current system as a design feature that helps the player improve and get them up to the higher lobbies faster. This obviously has a negative effect on different people in different ways but like with smurfs who get put in a harder lobby, those more experienced are forced to improve when they do well and if they can't keep up they get dropped back down again.
@apostolateofDOOMnah, no thanks. ill err on the side of my favorite player, the best player to touch the game, and like 90 percent of the playerbase, and my own personal unfun experience im having, thanks tho.
i dont care what it is that needs to be done to sbmm, but they need to do it. literally not enough people queing ranked because people are sick of it lol. so preds are fighing golds. disgusting that they arent doing anythign
no ones playing ranked because pubs are ranked without the loss of RP.
so you put crazy sbmm in your public playlist and your ranked playlist is dead. gg respawn
