Matchmaking isn't supposed to fix matches in your favor. It's there so you have people to make the gamemode work. People really be giving SBMM too much credit. All it does is look at PVP stats like K/D, Win/Loss ratio or anything related and matches you solely based on those stats. All you'd have to do is lose a couple of games on purpose and you're matched into easier games. That's it.

SBMM is a cancer in games. So terrible. I am happy that it's gone. What a horrible thing to add into a casual pvp game mode.

It is sbmm though. It should be cbmm as cbmm is superior.

SBMM killed coldwar and most of d1. It need not kill again.

Survival is sbmm, thanks for showing everyone that sbmm players cant even tell the difference when it's on or off but just complain and blame the mm regardless. [quote]Getting my ass handed to me like this makes it no fun to play. For all of you that whine that CBMM is better STFU![/quote] Or you can stfu, stop blaming mm and improve like everyone else that is good today did. [quote]All you want to do is make yourselves feel better by stomping on the little guy[/quote] All you want is participation trophies where the game dumbs down opponents to your level rather then playing everyone else like we all did. [quote]rather than playing against guys that just might be better than you[/quote]So ironic - the guy crying for a safe space against better players is complaining about others he things do not want to play better players. Heres the reality: under cbmm you can play anyone, so the pro cbmm crowd are fine with who ever they match up against - worse, equal or better which is exactly the way a casual mode should work. It's you who wants better players removed from possibly matching you, not gonna happen where 6vs6 is concerned. [quote]So you have to wait a few to get into a game. The way I would look at it is that the game is trying hard to find an equal match to play with. The longer it takes the better know you you are. If it seems to take to long for you, try another activity.[/quote] Lol this is gold, "if you are good too bad that it takes forever to fund games under sbmm, go play another activity" No. How about you stick to pve if matching anyone else is so aggravating for you?

Comp is Glory based. This isn't a good case unless you're wanting them to not use your rank for a ranked game mode?

Here is a brutal game that happened to me. This is why SBMM needs to be implemented on some level. This is why people are leaving PvP in droves. Granted this is a Mayhem game but damn! Bungie, please look into the MM aspect of your PvP. IT SUCKS!

SBMM already failed twice, not coming back, when SBMM is in on people don’t play

The issue I can see is that if all members of a team are in a fireteam it won't divide them across the teams. Which makes Bungies new attempt at balancing teams better a moot point.

they made a change for matchmaking today maybe this will be better

Some people in your thread are disputing whether comp and iron banner has skill matchmaking. Not in comp. Not in any playlist. As per the TWAB "Removed Skill Based Matchmaking listing from the Iron Banner tooltip – it has been using Connection-Based Matchmaking, [b][i][u]along with the rest of the Crucible, since June of 2020. [/u][/i][/b]" https://www.bungie.net/en/Explore/Detail/News/50102

SBMM is in the survival playlist

SBMM all the way. I either get matched with people better than me or people that I stomp on. I prefer the former as I would rather be challenged every match. Currently it’s like I’m a god for three or four matches and then I am an insignificant speck in the realm of elite try Hards for three or four matches after that. I want to get better and the only way that’s gonna happen is by matching my skill level and above.

Do you even know if you were properly matched by rank? You only mention that of you and your team
