Someting like a rank mod

i think it would be cool if there was a mode where all players were on the same skill level.
like in other games the ranked mode with up rank and down rank

People here are too insecure to have something like this

I have never played a game with SBMM that felt like it put me with players at my level.

me neither. Its always getting hammered to hell for ten games in a row before stomping for 5 and then the cycle continues

Thats warthunder anyways unless you use a specifc nation.

Sbmm would help massively in this game…
Providing it actually was implemented correctly.

The mm we have is absolutely dog water

It’s crazy what our current MM allows.
You can have a team filled with people that have one-vehicle premium lineup going against people with fully kitted ones. You can also have a teammate with Reserve tier tanks that got in your game because he has heli/plane of the same BR.

Issues like these need to be resolved way before we even start talking about SBMM.

Yeah all of this is ridiculous af isnt it.

Definitely need to address all of that, then may not need a sbmm

I don’t even play one of the major nations and that just isn’t the case other than for air

the proviso that its implemented well is next to impossible, even the most recent COD is using SBMM and implemented it quite poorly and games that have had a decade to get sbmm right still aren’t close to a decent system. Gaijin cant even model extremely well-documented vehicles accurately

i play all of them and it really is that way, japan 11.3 rn is basically a certified win.

Bungie managed it with halo 3 ODST and reach, killzone managed it with 3 and 2.
just because lazy game devs now cant manage doesnt mean SBMM is a bad mechanic.

If they fix what motorola said above then maybe it would fix half the issues with the MM anyway.

But right now its absolutely disgusting

yea they totally ended up well didn’t they

Thats your only response to what I said.

Bungie optionally left microsoft.
what they did afterwords proves my point.
Destiny 1 for trials of osciris the and rank had pretty good MM,
destiny 2 was dogshit for it. both made by the same devs.

Halo 3, odst and reach were made years before destiny was even thought up. and at the time had pretty good MM.

SBMM would massively improve lobbies for people IF its done right, after the issues that motorola brought up
“You can have a team filled with people that have one-vehicle premium lineup going against people with fully kitted ones. You can also have a teammate with Reserve tier tanks that got in your game because he has heli/plane of the same BR.” got fixed . SBMM would prevent people with piss poor performance facing off against guys with a 3.0 KD overall and 70 percent win rate.

Only for Air duels with same craft, yes

you would get really long que times, since you not only need the specific BR but also specific skill level. that is undoable in WT

You would not get really long queue times at all, theres literally over 100k players on average on the game.

You could also as i said fix the main issues first that motorola brought up before looking at SBMM

there are too many variables to take into account.
there would undeniably be long que times.
even with 100k concurrent players you have to find 24-32 players just to fill 1 battle at your current skill level and your br bracket. your que would go from like average 20s to 1min +.
and that is on the more played modes and br brackets.

Naval rb queue times plus sbmm :)

If you cant wait more than 1 minute for a far better match then im shocked.

Some matches now adays are decided in a matter of mere minutes.
Seen games completely over in 2 minutes, it was never like this before, only recently.

There has to be some way to fix it.

As @MotorolaCRO listed further up, if they fixed all those issues there may be no need for sbmm, however im tired of matches at even 8.7 br that are absolutely over in 3 minutes, theres a 25 minute mission timer for a reason

im not disputing that matches are bad.
im just saying sbmm is not the solution to the problem.
