Skill-based matchmaking.
What is the reason for secretly adding a skill-based matchmaking system? For the past few weeks I've noticed that no matter the division, rank, friendly match, etc., the game only matches you with pe...

Look, I have a lot of time to play (I am a "young" pensioner:-D), but for the time I put in, I should get much more satisfying results...
Last year I was playing consistently in D6 and fighting for D5, this year I'm practically stuck in D9...
A nice shrimp jump, no doubt about it... :-(
But I'm convinced it's not all my doing.
The MM system, the constant shuffling of the cards in the DR with demotions that affect all players, strong users with multiple accounts who enjoy trolling weaker users, are certainly not things that help our progression and unfortunately tend to drive us away from the game!
I'm not saying they do help with the game, I'm just pointing out why they do what they do. Personally, I think there should be more protection for lower skilled players, and that's where something like skill based matchmaking should come in. Unfortunately, there are ways around such things, really it would make more sense if they had a system where you could report players that are clearly above their skill level. Rather than ban them they should be able to analyse them and determine if they are where they should be.
Systems like that take time, money, and probably man power to create so it's unlikely something that will happen. People in all games are affected by smurfs and the like, it's another side effect of their super cranked up matchmaking methods. Hopefully they do find some way to combat it though, as it kills the game. Personally, I find easily winning against worse players really boring most of the time, it wasn't fun when I was going up through rivals, it's boring as everyone just quits. I really don't get how people do it and enjoy doing such a thing.
The fact is that until last year there weren't any major problems with the MM...
I don't remember there being any complaints about it...
Maybe because there were so many checkpoints that even prevented you from going back...
This year they removed them practically everywhere and, lo and behold, the complaints started...
It wasn't a good initiative on EA's part in my opinion.For me matchmaking problems Began last year. Every other year I made Elite but not since 25
