The changes to SBMM are just plain bad
Putting people who have KD's of .8 and average damage numbers below 300 against players who have 2+ KD's and 600+ average damage numbers is just not fun. This is going to run the mid-low skill pla...

@DarthValtrex Didn't you hear? Sbmm makes the game better for low skill players (deep sarcasm before anybody gets upset).
The games been off the charts in difficulty for me for a good 6-7 months now, yes I've gotten much better but when you compare me to the calibre of player I'm matched with it really is a drop in the ocean.
To anybody getting really agitated by the difficulty of the apex online experience i would say this;
Play casually, you'll feel a lot less stressed.
@MandatoryIDtag I'm fairly casual and don't mind playing with people slightly above me. But when I'm sitting with a .8 KD and average damage in the 220-280 range, then get matched with a teammate who's at .5 and sub 200 damage.. And have to play against preds?! Come on...
If I had a predator-skilled player on my team I can support them. But that's about it..
at .8 I'd be perfectly okay exclusively playing with people who have KD's in the .7-1.5 range. I would have some success and some challenge.
I completely understand SBMM is a difficult thing to perfect in a game like this. Simply because there are so many variables.
I also don't mind playing with low skill players as teammates. That is a challenge for me, but combining me with a low skill teammate and putting me up against players in the top 2%?!

@DarthValtrex I've been hard stuck at 1.28 k.d for the last two seasons lol, big drop from 1.98. D:
My duo is around the 1 K/D Mark and our randoms generally just seem to be cannon fodder in lobbies way above their own skill level. Its unfair on us having to carry them, and frankly its unfair on them to even be in our lobbies.
Whole system is a crapshoot lol.
- @DarthValtrex No worries most pred‘s can’t play anyways 😉
- @DarthValtrex off-topic, maybe we can play together if it's fine with you as I really would like to play with our forum members here, and the (Find a squad) section in Apex forum is completely dead and useless
if interested add my PSN: maxinq- @maximas1986 Yup! Send me an invite. I’m heading to bed right now but I’ll be on tomorrow night. I’m on xbox. I’ll DM you my user name
- @DarthValtrex Lolz so usually you just say your name and now its a DM?! YOU CHANGED YOUR NAME!
