Everyone that plays this game should know by now that you are all a part of a large scale social and technological experiment that doesnt give two craps about what the players want. Everything they are doing is an experiment. They have never done the crap they are doing on the server structure they are using. Here is the deal. They are never going to fix it the way we want it. Its just americans constantly bickering over the assholes in the politics. We are always pissed and pissing about the problems and not paying any attention to why there is a problem. So what better way to keep people in the game that clearly has not brought anything really good to the table since it cane out other than the social aspect? Keep promising that there is always some change coming that will make it better. Thats how.

[b]Skill-Based Matchmaking is the Devil's work.[/b] First off, I'm sorry for your experience but Skill Based Matchmaking is awful. 1.) [u]Skill Based Matchmaking increases lag.[/u] Nobody likes lag and without CBMM, just by general terms, lag will increase. Pretty much speaks for itself. 2.) [u]Reduced fun-factor[/u]. I play video games for fun, like everyone else. Competing against my peers of equal skill is fun, but not [i]all the time.[/i] Every match is a sweaty, snipe fest, which is problematic because I can't just play a PvP match right before work or bed, because they require so much attention just to turn out positive. Additionally, I have to "play the meta" so to speak, with SBMM. I don't like using the same weapons all the time, but with SBMM, I'm forced because my pool is so try-hard. Without SBMM, I'll be matched up with a variety of players, some of whom won't be as sweaty as they currently are, which is a plus. 3.) [u]Stagnant improvement[/u]. I always desire to get better. Call it my DNA to try to be the best competitor I can be. With SBMM, I'm forced into matches with people of equal skill. There's no room for improvement because I'm playing people who make the same mistakes I do, so there's no way to assess what parts of my game need improving through trial and error. Under CBMM, I face a wide variety of players, good [u]and[/u] bad. So I can improve by playing against better competition and help other players improve by exposing weaknesses in their game. 4.) [u]I can't play with friends[/u]. Why? Because they get destroyed by players in my matchmaking. Not all my friends are as good as me. This means I have two options: A.) Not play with them. B.) Play with them and watch them get destroyed. A.) isn't ideal because now the matchmaking is choosing who I play with, not just my opponents. B.) is not ideal because not only would my friend not be having fun, but the players on our team because we have a dead weight member that shouldn't really be in our matchmaking.

I like cbmm it's an improvement and less of a headache, only happens in 3-10 matches. I go to trials to play with smart ppl or run with a group like I do in iron banner

It is clear that SBMM is being used for clash. If Bungie says it's CBMM they're lying.

Skill based matchmaking never left. There is apparently more of an emphasis on connection, but skill is still and always will be a factor.

The lag is too horrible with SBMM. It might have less of a chance winning if I get paired up with newbies, but being matched against red bars who teleport, shoot through walls and don't take damage I don't have any chance of winning at all. Please stop making terrible suggestions.

Winning isnt everything, thats why they have the "On the Bright Side" Medal
