Disagree. If you're that bad (K/D ==0.3) then SBMM isn't your problem, and CBMM isn't the answer. Because if the game went to a CBMM scheme, you would still spend the vast majority of your time playing against people who are significantly better than you. You'd still perform poorly, and you'd still (no disrespect intended) be a liability to any team that is trying hard to win. What SBSMM does---for a player like you---is LOWER the barriers to enterning the game....and acquiring the skill to play it. With SBMM you are matched against players who are of a similar skill level as yourself. SO THE GAME UNFOLDS MORE SLOWLY....and people are less likely to fight their way out of bad decisions based on raw twitch speed, or having lots of experience. So you have a chance to come to understand the game you're playing. See what are good decisions....because you get rewarded with kills. See what are bad decisions...because they get you killed. So you start to learn and you get better. Then the game gets you better opponents...and the process goes on. You get to experience some success and you get better incrementally. Without any SBMM, you'd likely get thrown in with me. I'm currently averaging about a 1.25 K/D in my matches these days....even allowing for SBMM....which makes me about a top 20% player in PVP. But even at that level of the game, I'm going to move too fast, and make decisions too fast for you to keep up with. I'm going to be able to anticipate what are actually good decisions on your part....because I've seen them hundreds or thousands of times before. So there's a good chance you'll end up dead, even though you've done the "right" thing. God forbid you get thrown in with the ELITE PvPers. Because at THAT level of the game you're going to be basically helpless. Those guys are so fast, shoot so precisely, and make decisions so quickly that you will have difficult time even understanding what's happening. You'll be like a Little League baseball player who's stepped into the batter's box with a Cy Young Award Winning Major League Pitcher. You will not get better in a situation like that. You will not have fun. That is a recipie for humiliation and frustration on a CONTINUAL basis....and a player like yourself being forced to eventually quit. Trust me. I went through something similar to that trying to learn how to play Battlefield 4 two years ago. ....and after two days of dying to people who seemed to literally spring up out of the ground around me, and not being able to figure out what I was doing wrong that kept getting me killed.... I finally said F-it, and quit. ...and those people you never get to hear complaining bout CBMM. You just get to hear the players who had "fun" running those people out, arguing in favor of letting them get their shit-stomping in.

It's not the games fault that you suck, it's yours. Shut up and stop whining, all you have to do is try, practice, work hard. That's how you get better. You learn from others that play better than you, you learn from your mistakes. If you're relying on matchmaking to put you up against an easy team then you're just wasting your time. Don't play pvp at all then.

I feel you. When they want to win at iron banner some of my sweaty friends make me the leader lol.

Play have fun. When it starts to be a chore instead of entertainment, move to something else. I rather play with friends and do absolutely horrible than play solo and do well. I enjoy talking to them and doing random shit to their body as well.

A tip for people with no thumbs for pvp..fallow the guy/girl on top of your teams leader board.watch what they do..don't not back straight up..strafe when shooting..and finally by default you should get at least 1-2 kills with your super or grenades.

You are absolutely right. Call of Duty has always had the best matchmaking experience. Purely connection based, all different skill levels. As you improve, you play better and have better stats and have something to show for it. SBMM works in a game like Halo with visible in-game skill levels, but it has no business in Destiny. Bungie has no idea what they are doing.

Do you play with a friend that has a higher skill level? My friend has a .75 k/d and I have about a 2.00 The SBMM makes it impossible for us to play together in Crucible because the gap in his skill versus the players I go against makes it frustrating for him. I don't think going less than a .5 k/d and basically feeling like a giant anchor is a fun feeling for him.

I made a new PS account a few months ago, to play around and have some fun with, but also to see where my "skill level" was at, compared to "lower skilled" players. I go straight into the crucible at rank 3 with the white Calcutta sniper and white handcannon (the first stuff the hunter gets) and no heavy, not unlocked yet and offcourse an totally un-upgraded subclass. My first 5 games i completely wrecked the opposition who had better weapons (legendaries etc) and most of them where around level 20-30. After a few more games i started to get matched up with level 40 players with fully maxed exotic weapons armour etc, and by my 10'th game in total my Kd was now around 1.6 - 2.0 (mostly because i was playing in a lower skilled pool then i am used to, my main Kd not even great btw, like 1.12) and i was now matching up with fully leveled sweaty players!! I even got matched up with a friend of mine (on my friends list on my main acc) which i KNOW FOR A FACT is a good player.. Its redicilous, here i am with my white weapons, level 15 or whatnot, getting constantly matched up against sweaties whit shottys, last words and the whole shabangabang!! Like give me a break, my character is obviously not ready for that, just because my Kd was good, my loadout and un-upgraded subclass is not ready for that after like 10 games of crucible.. This to me is the biggest proof of why SBMM is COMPLETELY AIDS and should be removed..
