[quote]Yet again Bungie decide to change trials match making for about four weeks Trials has been really enjoyable again and.has allowed the average player a fair shot at lighthouse glory. This however seems to not agree with bungie who decide to go back to the ridiculous match marking which makes (skill based I don’t think so) most of the average player base never want to play Trials. Why is it Bungie want to make Trials for the top 3% and alienate everyone else do these top 3% donate to you In order to keep their twitch (alternative streaming) revenue viewing relevant. This can be the only answer so thanks for what was an enjoyable 4 weeks.[/quote]
I’m a Top 1% player and I DESPISE the changes. The matchmaking times are atrocious and it’s always the same teams. I don’t mind sweating, but it sucks facing the same team 3 times in a row.

But are you facing teams that are at your level, if you are top 1% this makes more sense that you would play against the same teams as my ELO is only about 1300 and I have been getting teams at just below 3000 how’s is that for skill based match making.

The matchmaking takes account the number of wins you have. So you can have a team full of scrubs with 40 wins, but be matched against a stack of sweats that also have 40 wins. And because Bungie used these parameters, it takes a very long time to find a team matching your wins, which I hate. I could wait 30 minutes for a game, sweat my balls off, then wait another half hour only to play the same people again possibly multiple times in a row. This matchmaking is worse for the lower skilled because they are forced to play against players out of their league. The mode has an identity crisis. Is it a competitive based mode like Comp? Or a loot based mode like Iron Banner?

except there is no SBMM in Trials, nor should there ever be

I agree to no SBMM but as to what IFxmto said I have kept a check on teams and streaks on DTR and it is definitely not matching against wins I honestly don’t believe they even know what is going on with the matching making just another awful attempt.
