I continue to get matched with teams far above my skill level. Not to mention my team is also garbage. Leads to horrible losses.
The low pop is causing some problems with match making. But it’s still better than random.
And sometimes you just hit a bad run of form.
Have you checked that you are performing as expected? You can check your expected vs actual on Waypoint now.
Just a quick glance at your last match - reasonably matched teams - but you appear to have way under performed for the best player in the game.
I know that one game is far from the whole story - but it’s ok to have good and bad patches. A new placement period can bring with it a bit of volatility to matching (which is what you actually want to help everyone re-rank as fast as possible).
It doesn’t mean the ranking system, or SBMM is broken. Let alone “beyond” broken.
I dont think that SBMM, the algorithm, is broken. The problem is the match making system that decides, what do to with the result of SBMM.
Which team mates you get, on which server you play (ping) and against which you have to play.
Another problem is the unreliable net code of the multiplayer. Sometime your shots register perfect, sometime half of your bullets dont register.
I dont ranked anymore serious with all that issues.
Yea this makes sense. Ive had games where my bullets phase through enemies and dont cause damage. This happens in social as well
Agreed, it’s hard for me to take ranked that serious anymore because you never know when you are going to get a match riddled with networking issues. Shoot I don’t even get upset at teammates anymore who have terrible games because for all I know they could be experiencing terrible issues on their end that is not really displaying what they are capable of, I know its happened to me more than once where I play well below what I normally do just due to shots not registering or somehow getting like 3 shot melted all the time.
