@maximas1986Unfortunately your post is a bit incorrect in a couple instances- One you bring up ranked, which Axs is not talking about.
2- Sbmm is live and well in pubs. How do I know? I consistently play this game daily with a friend. If we have a good run of games we get put in brutal lobbies. If we then have bad games, they put us back where we likely belong or lower. Yes sometimes predators get placed in lobbies that do not make sense. This could be because they found a way around the sbmm or the devs dont want long queue times.
The issue solo queuing for top players is the sbmm matches them with randoms of many times a low level but puts them in lobbies with many high level squads.
@hayhori believe SBMM is the same for ranked and pubs the only difference that it's not matching people with less that 1 .5 tier from each others .
if you are not facing try hard lobbies much then take advantage of it because it will not last long , i don't know whats your states but am very sure it's not that easy for me .
very near example just yesterday i was playing alone and i can say it was ok then my friend sent me a msg asking me if i wanna play so i said fine .
he joined my party and we ready up , champion squad screen is up and guess what .....boom triple preds and one guy had 29000 kills on lifeline which is more than all three of us combined.
so that was a bad luck or what ????
if it's bad luck then why it happened again and again and again after that and only when someone joined my party which by the way he started playing the game last season only and he still lvl 150 +
- 5 years ago@maximas1986 Pubs Sbmm isn't the same as ranked. Why would Respawn do that? I think any player who has been playing for a long time can tell how the difficulty decreases/increases with your performance(minus the top players ofc) and ofc it isn't much forgiving for pre-made teams too.
I think I have noticed lobbies of 4 different levels at least. Predator lobbies, diamond lobbies, average player lobbies, and then the lowest tier bot(newbies I mean) lobbies.- 5 years ago@BaldWraithSimp i will not disagree , but then i want to ask why i always have preds in my lobby and if not a pred then i will have at least two or three squads of masters .
there is no match that i play where i don't see these red trails falling from the sky and am not even above average player , and it becomes even worse if i have a friend in my party regardless of his lvl,skill or KDR
and to me at least there is no difference between pubs and ranked as i see the same type of players in both .
in the end am not asking not to play with high skilled player and am against that other wise there is no fun and no room to level up my skills ( if i have any ) 🙂 ,what am asking for is to have people get matched with team mates who have the same skill,KDR,win lose ratio or whatever it is
because what is happening now is forcing one player in the team to carry the other two all the time .
isn't that exhausting and frustrating??
are we here to have fun or to be held responsibility to carry someone else
ok......lets turn it around , if a predator player get matched with two others like me and in that lobby have two or three predator squads wouldn't that be exhausting and frustrating to him as he have two teammates who is unable to catch up with him and he have to carry both of them- hayhor5 years agoHero@maximas1986 You've missed some of the points here but I'll answer one of your questions- I'm an average player with a KD that hovers in the .9s but who typically wins at a 10% rate. This season I am now 12 to 13% I believe. I play with a person who's KD is 1.3. Combined, due to the sbmm we always have predators and masters in our lobbies and our 3rds are almost always garbage. I get games where the champion squad has 90000 kills and thousands of season wins combined. I do not worry about them tho as a lot of times they drop hot and die. The key is we do not jump with the preds or super players.
Sbmm is not the same as ranked. I've been playing this since the beginning and it is obvious from my matches.
