It's ok. The last time i voice my concern, i got reported and was banned from forum for a few weeks. Not a great experience.

@EA_MariFirst off, we appreciate your offer !
But for instance, we talked for the longest time Aim Assist being overpowered , MnK Players which complained about the issue got ridiculed for 4 years straight and only bcs of an outside statistic Respawns hand was forced and their solution was neither good (nobody feels it being nerfed in any way) nor wanted (most MnK Players wanted input based lobbies since the introduction of "forced crossplay" in Season 7!).
There are quite a number of similar examples like the Matchmaking Discussion, the Netcode Discussion ect.
Those topics also didnt really get addressed, except a Blogpost on Matchmaking. And that Document left more questions than answers, it didn't reflect the InGame-Reality experienced by so many players.
I hope you can understand, why some of us have the impression that our voices arent that worthy to be listened to.- 1 year ago@r1ggedgame It's PR speak, sounds good, say all the right things, zero action behind it. It's really easy to say stuff, kinda hard to follow through.
The game is unplayable today due to cheaters and the networking just giving me zero registration. I haven't been this angry with the game in quite a while. Steam charts says there was 170k playing during peak, but sure doesn't feel like it. Long ques, servers feel particularly trash today, no hit reg, and going against 3-stacks several tiers above my rank. I just checked the Steam charts again, went from 170k to 115k in a couple of hours, that doesn't seem good.
It really does feel like the game is dying this time around. Between the networking and cheaters, the game is just unplayable at this moment. Address the cheaters Respawn! Stop giving numbers, because the game is F2P, they make new accounts. Big numbers doesn't equate to stopping cheaters, clearly.

Mari:
Thank you for reaching out and offering your assistance in bridging the gap between the players and the Devs. Much appreciated!
You however, are not the first on this forum to offer the same, and then disappear. From what I can see the turn around rate for CM's is high on this forum. Hopefully your words are genuine and will follow through - again thank you.
As you can see the faith is lacking, and for good reason... most ongoing issues have been voiced, as well as begged to be explained and so on...with little to no results on the Dev's end. Like one mentioned... finally the Devs gave some information on SBMM last year, which confused some more than it provided clear answers. And since then their explanation of the SBMM isn't congruent with most players experiences when speaking to SBMM and when being paired with random teammates or against combatants. Respawn went silent after that.
Here is my main question for the Devs (there are many, but this is the most critical imo) which I ask, could you please take back to the team for some kind of response (any at this point is better than nothing) - Please have them explain why players of lower rank (silver, gold etc) are constantly facing preds and masters without fail? Why is a new player with 50 kills being pitted against players with 150,000 kills? Why is a level 250 with a lifetime of 100 kills being forced to play against players with 110,000 kills on one character alone?
Your entire forum if you added up every thread and issue every voiced here, you will find this particular one exceeds all the others combined. That speaks volume, and should without fail generate a response and/or explanation at the very least. I would even be fine with a response like "We don't know" or "We are trying to figure out why." - again any response is better than none. I would respect a genuine answer like the above - but being ignored is hard to swallow as it is unprofessional, lazy and down right ignorant, especially when during it all, they continue to keep the store pumping out product, looking for more of our money while ignoring major complaints and going silent.
Please and thank you.
