Today the development team is making a few changes to Matchmaking settings with the goal of improving your experiences in the Crucible. Here is a quote straight from the team with some details about what is being changed.
[quote]
We’ve made a change to the Matchmaking system in an effort to increase match quality. Our specific goal is to reduce the number of matches that begin before they fill up with players. To achieve this, we are expanding the available skill-range for other players earlier and more aggressively. We will also be looking for lower-latency matches for longer than before. Essentially, this puts a stronger bias on connection quality, with less emphasis on skill matching. This may result in slightly longer matchmaking times in some cases. For some of you, this could mean that you’ll be matched with opponents well outside of your skill range. We hope the tradeoff is worth it to improve the Crucible ecosystem in general.
As always, our work in designing a Crucible experience that serves all players is never finished. Be sure to let us know what you experience out there. Our forum, just like our game, is a constant source of great feedback.

These changes are now live in all playlists*. After you play some games with the new settings, feel free to post in this thread with any feedback you have. Let us know what you think.

I swear I either have a 2.0 or a -.026 ... I have no inbetween at the moment
-
Hot fix needed the lag speeds are unbearable
-
I hate the crucible now.

This has not been a good idea lol trials has been broken once again and i feel sorry for the players that will never achive there first win. It was fine as it was a year ago. The exotic guns should be more powerfull than legendary ones! And god roll weapons shold never be one available to buy ( as well as the items to upgrade them ) where has the grind gone and also the fun to play in pvp knowing its going to be a close game!! I really hope it gets better and you dont make the same mistake in destiny 2. Newish twitch streamer and year 1 player ... Driftracers.... out! :/

1 ReplyIn PvE matchmaking is perfect.

Well, I haven't really noticed a bit of difference. There's still lag and red bars and my matches are still sweaty. I don't really think you guys changed anything. [spoiler]Typical Bungie lol, just like the "we increased skeleton key drops and decreased weapon drops (significantly too)[/spoiler] You guys are on smfh matchmaking now

4 RepliesThe only thing worse than red bars are highly skilled red bars...

6 RepliesThe common destiny player *asks for Siva vog* *complains about reskinns* *wants to remove sbmm* *when you get cbmm, they want sbmm*
-
3 RepliesTrials needs to be sbmm to make it truly competitive. But more importantly you need to fix the missing silver problem. Give me my silver or give me my money back now

Finally some challenge in the crucible instead against sweats in the crucible

4 RepliesThis existed during Iron Banner, Cozmo. Once Iron Banner is over, this does not exist. I don't understand, Cozmo..., I just don't. I have played probably less than 15-20 Crucible matches after "the new matchmaking settings", I have found more laggy lobbies than before. Full CBMM, not a bit of CBMM.

I just got out of a match... 3 v6 for maybe the first 3 to 4 minutes...Way to go and -blam!- it up bungie
-
I enjoy the new matchmaking, seriously a lot easier to get clips haha ! https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=OGQ4bOYCtlI

Im loving the new changes. As a solo player it has been great for me in regular pvp. IB rift however was horrid.
-
I'm loving the matchmaking changes. I can use a scout/ fusion enjoying myself and play without encountering nearly as many red bars. Good job on this decision.
-
Leave it alone, it's tougher players because they are who consistently play crucible... thats my guess. It's really frustrating but the only way to really improve your game play
-
Cosmo, you guys need to bring more players back and into the game. Playlist population is very low and you know it. CBMM is fine but when only certain people play in a playlist, it doesn't matter what kind of MM is present. I still see the same guys as before.
-
I didnt even know u could find red bars in SRL until now
-
Is there any way to highlight teams winning at 3vs2 and 3vs1 ?
-
Destiny sevre down? Gor anyone else?

I can relate to ss so well

5 RepliesEvery control game I've played has been sweaty as -blam!-. I call bullshit.
