I’d really like sbmm, because it would make my stats more uniform and look better because I am facing people with a similar skill set, and would generally make it more fun.
Yet the downsides far outweigh the (Theoretical) positives. Doing better is no longer rewarded, instead punished, queue times go up significantly, and there is less impetus to improve.
For ultra-competetive games it can help (Though even then it has consequences and really isnt a good idea much of the time), but for WT it wont work- especially since the skills needed for each BR can be different.

Been like that for 12 years.
It’s like expecting everybody you play at chess to be at your exact same level.
The skill level is mixed per game that’s the way it is.
Why there are people who really want SBMM??
That thing can be easily abused. Imagine doing nothing in several battles to make the system think you are bad, and then bully every unskilled player in the next battle. In addition SBMM means the more skillful you are, the worse teammates you will have.

the goal of SBMM is to have even teams, on both sides. Skillful people with skillful people against skillfull people with skillfull people in the team and less skill full with less skillfull against even skillfull paired with less skillfull…i dont see your logic. And i always read: que times. are the majority of players just after SL/RP and a specific amount of games in an hour? isnt the game also about fun, immersion, teamplay and strategy? The majority of players prefer keeping throwed in shitty matchesand a lot of it, rather than a few less therefor higher quality matches?
is it all about the grind only? isnt it at the end just an addiction to go after one grind to another?
i mean how long waiting is acceptble? i dont need to get into a match by click start and get a match in less than 5 seconds, which i expirience each day. longest que time i had was 30 seconds and that happened mebe 5 times in a year.
its just a weak justification not to change the way it is by “muh, but quetimes” “muh but less SL and RP”.
Also the abuse statement is weak. how many player would do it? arent the most people after good stats? i wouldnt have the idea of playing weak for days, and yes it should have to be DAYS or even 2 weeks to get ranked in the MM and not simply play a few hours bad and then rock the next few hours. its an archievment at the end that most people would voluntarly treat it well…
and talking about abuse: airfield camper as a name unveils that YOU would have trouble beeing in a SBMM…
i remember back in the days when you waited 20 minuts for a game but at least i was able to spawn in now i immediatelly get targettet by homing missiles XD i do agree people dont like que times but man it was just that much more funn xD
OK!!! So IF matchmaking is UNBIASED (mwahhahaha) random and not based on any skill/level what so ever then explain
84% +1br
13% +0.7br
02% +0.3br
01% 0.0br
and 23 matches -1br out of 1000 matches monitored, AND out of alllll those matches
nearly every single match, K/Ds are similar, Levels (players) and experience all similar oh and the amount of “Teamed” players are similar aswell.
can anybody explain that?
Because I sure as hell cant.! For a completely random match making system - doesnt appear to be random at all!! Sooooooo Im calling out on that one¬!
You must be getting really lucky then. Might I suggest you play the lottery?
After 30 deleted posts or a ban, it will finally dawn on you that such matters shouldn’t be discussed on the game’s official forums. If a snail or even a developer claims that grass is pink, then it is, and all moderators and admins will uphold this position, combating any suggestions, accusations, or conspiracy theories that contradict this claim.
The only sure random MM is the air simulation

There’s no real evidence the matchmaker is somehow biased against you, and this is coming from a player with above average stats.
my point exactly… the grass is pink!
stats don’t lie, took me a very long to to monitor and gather the evidence.
I sent this personally to gaijin and still awaiting an answer that I will never get.!
I nigh on garauntee the next 2-3 matches, uptiered and very few kills.!
lol… 100% correct aswell… +1, 5 kills. players knew exactly where I was at all times.
2nd match - Zero kills, dead twice within 30 secs of spawn.!! lol
3rd match and not even a shot off!!! Funny how that works isnt it!!
ALWAYS happens,
and that is why I get uptiered so often because once downtiered.!! see below!
lol I wish I was lucky.
Random, as in it scrapes together everyone who shows up.
Ok, put your data together and present it to the peanut gallery. Extraordinary claims and all that.
The better you are, the more likely it becomes that you are surrounded by lobotomized team mates and face rather stiff opposition.
With your stats you are a top ground RB player - so it is quite logical that you face constantly full uptiers.
Try Air RB - in your preferred BR range around 2.7 - 4.0 it is way more likely that you can escape constant uptier loops - just switch nations and servers frequently.
But sooner or later they get you 😎👍
whilst I agree with that, that does’t make it right being as there isnt a Skill based system in place. Which again begs the question - how and why does it always happen.?
Ive even noticed, certain maps I spawn, same place - heading away from the advantage (ie facing away from the caps etc) Always on certain maps regardless of when I join the map. So something is definitly calculated to give/remove advantage.
whom just happen to be very balanced in terms of level and stats, yes very random indeed that…
Are you sure? As long as you don’t have access to the parameters this is just a wild guess based on “official” statements.
If you would have access the NDA in your contract would prevent you from telling the world what you saw…
As long as you still play wt (despite your observations) this is a classic case of:
Well they maintain that according to their own published information, so if thats not the case then its a clear breach in their own policies.!
