Update 6.2.1 unbalanced games?
After todays game update 6.2.1 all Redacted conquest games has been very unbalanced compared to earlier days. Like ~600-0 unbalanced. Is it just bad luck or did they change match making or something ...

It's hard for me to say whether teams were balanced better before the patch or not. I'll join one game, and there will be about four of us sweaty try-hards. Then the next round it'll stack me against those three other players and give me the most bot teammates lol. I've also been on the other side of that plenty of times, so I don't really get how teams are being balanced.
Good luck out there!
My first game on Redacted after the update had 9 AI on my team 0 AI on the other side !?!?!
- @RaginSam I think ever since mid S5 Dice has introduced some kind of skill-based BS into the game, or just turned it up to 11.
Before that games felt decently fair and there wasn't anything fishy going on. But since then matches have become extremely "engineered, which is why I stopped playing.
Weird "sorry your shots are not registering anymore" moments happen too often when I'm going on a high killstreak. Even though those moments were far and few between before that.
Enemy team seems to have all MLG, LCS, Global Elite, and Pro League players in one team, while my team is full of babmies.
Just doesn't feel right.@UP_LordPlumberI get that extremely engineered feeling with some of the recent COD games and will not give them a dime because of it. I don't think Dice is that complicate yet, but I think they need to ditch the Battle pass. There's been a bit of talk recently about how COD games have been manipulating players connections in order to sell skins. I totally believe it too, and noticed something being way off before ever seeing these new "leaked" documents.
SBMM is important in my opinion. You want teams to have some sort of balance. If you put all new players, or people that just aren't very good all on one side versus a bunch of Pros, everyone is going to get either bored or very frustrated. It's a needed thing that isn't inherently bad. When connections start getting manipulated, that's when it becomes a problem. The other problem is when the algorithm for how teams are balanced is poorly designed.
I think the weirdness you're experiencing is due to the overall hit reg and Crossplay. Even with Crossplay out of the picture, there's still something weird about the servers and like people say, 45hz is kinda low for CQC maps.
Sometimes I think that when my character isn't moving correctly it's due to a super sketchy player who just joined and that they maybe cheating. It's hard to explain, but easy to feel. Like the game becomes jittery and movements seem slightly delayed. Vaulting becomes even worse somehow.@RaginSamTell me there is skill-based hit reg without telling me there is a skill-based hit reg.
Reason I believe its a skill-based hit reg because it ALWAYS happens against some low-skill/low-rank blueberry with k/d of 1 or lower. I never get this kind of nonsense against high rank players or players with higher k/d
