Now, I know there is low population and with the TrueSkill reset things got weird for a week or two. But these past few days I’ve been getting wrecked. Now, I know I’m not good (mid 20’s for CSR in Slayer) and I don’t blame lag for my poor performance but checking my history for slayer the last couple of days I’ve been playing 50’s that run in pairs, repeatedly. Wby? They have a huge game history, their TS should be quite high by now. Why place them against a bunch of random mid teen / mid twenty players?
This week is the first time I’ve ever played 50’s, so what gives? Is the population that bad? Did people quit Throwdown and move to IS since Pro has come online (they always vote pro). Are there new search parameters?
Sounds like just a streak of bad luck.

True, and I have those and normally I blame lag 
but looking through CSR’s and stats I’ll see that the people were generally in my range but now these people are way out of my league.
It is cool to watch the film and I did pick up some pointers so I guess there is that…
I play a lot of Objective so it might be a little different situation, but so far I’ve been able to pin some of it to JIP, since that tends to slap anyone in there.
The other thing I’ve been seeing is what appear to be second accounts. Players with very low gamer points who absolutely wipe through everyone.
But even with that, I’m still seeing some “interesting” combinations. If the games are evenly matching, 4 or 5+ k/d should be a pretty rare event, and I’m seeing 27-6 games every other game, it seems.
Ok, once again today. WHY AM I PLAYING MID 40’s / 50’s!!! This is BS. Population is around where it’s been forever. I really think something has changed as I heard they were tweaking search parameter from BS Angel on a different post on these forums. What’s going on? I don’t mind competition but I’m tired losing, over and over and over and over and over and over and the system has a ranking system that pretty much predicted my loss so why keep placing me in these matches???
Oh, and can I please stop playing parties? There seems to be enough of them can’t they play each other? Party vs. Random = instant loss (not always sure but enough of the time).
And again. What’s going on? Why am I matching with full parties with 50’s? Something seems broken. Population is not that low in Infinity Slayer (around 4400). I want to keep playing this game but this is pointless. I was still liking this game but it seems like when the Pro variant was turned on something else happened with the search parameters. Can anyone (343 Industries I’m looking at you) explain why mid level 20’s-low 30’s randoms are being matched with full party’s with 50’s?
Now I know that match making isn’t based on CSR but honestly, look at these peoples stats. Most are closing in on +2.0 for K/D and have a ton of games played. I would think their TrueSkill is quite high. And mine is now going into the toilet.
