Truth be told I'm not against SBMM system but ...
[quote][i]Do you try to force players into a 50% win/loss ratio?
Nope. As we’ve stated, your personal performance is a factor in the Guardians you end up confronting in battle, but we do nothing to artificially influence win streaks or alter individual player statistics[/i][/quote]

Ummmm 😒
Yea, I'm a bit skeptical
RNGesus blesses you with a competent team that doesn't try to cap three points...

RnGesus curses you with suicidal shotgun warriors that took an oath to not touch a primary...
[b]BREAK IT UP[/b]
I seriously can't think of any reason that mechanic exists [b]OTHER than to try to artificially manipulate your win/loss[/b]
It doesn't speed up matchmaking
It's not finding a better connection
It is ONLY trying to make the matches closer
And even then it screws that up
I've had it kick me from a team, put me in a match that's in the process of getting mercy ruled, lose, break that team up, place me in another match that's almost over, lose, break that up...
How is that helpful to anyone?
I'm calling BS on Bungie's newest explanation.
Breaking up teams is definitely placing SBMM over all other factors.
Like I said, I'm not against SBMM in general.
Just don't fart in the room and blame it on the dog. I can feel the vibration through the couch for Christ sake.

Use to think the answer to most of this issue was just playing rumble. But bungie still puts you into games in progress and it does feel like if you play to good your still nerfed somehow...

5 RepliesEdited by DeathOnSale2Day: 11/19/2016 4:05:35 AMIt should only break up the losing team to help them find better players not break up the winning team to find worse players Honestly the fact that this happens completely seems contradictory to bungie saying they don't try to keep you at 50/50 win loss ratio

They've done everything they possibly could to make sure that people don't socialize. No in-game chat from start and breaking up teams. In Halo I'd get new "friends" on a daily basis because the game actually allowed us to communicate and stick together after a good match. In this game I've never had any reason to add someone - because they're complete strangers to me and at that point I might aswell just add everyone I see and treat it like a lottery - and I have no idea who the people who added me are.

1 ReplyIt was just another long winded bullshit response pussy footing around not having dedicated servers and blaming the players for their bad experiences. It sucks that these guys are starting to act just as bad forum trolls. It's all snark and defensive comebacks. Might as well just say "git gud, lol. That k/d tho..." in their next TWaB.

4 RepliesI love how placing a fireteam of 5 or 6 against a bunch of randoms is "SBMM". Is it hard to place fireteams against fireteams?

Edited by Dr Leo 92: 11/19/2016 3:31:57 AMAnd what about a leaver penalty like overwatch? If You leave a game on purpose or get disconnected due to a poor connection you should get penalized for putting your team at a disadvantage. Most games in destiny start 6v5 or 5v4 and even if it's 6v6 people on the losing team start quitting as soon as they know the team is gonna loose. They can decrease your reputation gain or put a temporary ban for few hours and maybe decrease light lvl in extreme cases And if the game puts you in a loosing game they can increase the reward drop rate maybe 5 coins or a legendary engram.

Good point, sir

That's a new version of the error code "apple" been that for a long time

Edited by KitsuneSonow: 11/19/2016 2:46:22 AMBut wait according to fanboys and apologists the only reason this happens is because you are bad at the game and have a bad connection. Maybe everyone should just get good and get better internet, this is not one of Bungie's problems right guys?

I know, I can't stand that. Last iron banner, I got put on a team and everyone was on point. We mercied the other team and then it was broken up. I always play solo, it would be nice to stay on a good team when I find one. Here's the match: https://youtu.be/USKygX0hkHI

I still remember this one time playing rift. As I was flying in the game ended while I was still looking at my ship. Then it said breaking up teams. The same thing happened. Then once more. Its was cool because it was iron banner so o still got the medallion but kinda strange at the same time

Well, I was with a competent team and we won 2 close games. Then, I get put on a team with no skill. The funny thing, I lost several matches in a row. The absolutely hysterical thing is he opposing teams were all positive. My entire team was below 1.0 kd. Yet, they claim they aren't manipulating anything. Next time it happens I will save the videos as proof of their bullshit.

Here's how we are going to break up the teams: Sweats on one side Everyone else on the other side. Sweats get to play against other sweats. Everyone else is at peace and get to have games with no clever dragons and Matadors.

1 Replyfunny why this game never does lobbies like in cod, where you can just leave a bad lobby, or sometimes if you get stomped twice it pulls you out into a new lobby. instead of getting crushed then getting a decent team only to lose it
-
yeah I don't get it.. if you are put with a team that does win.. why would you break that team up.. break the loosing team up and away we go again.. they break both teams up to ensure the skill gap they want, and while maybe they do not manipulate the game while it is in progress, they sure do in the matchmaking process or the 50% win ration would never have come up ever in any interview period.
-
I like the announcer (Shaxx I think) shouting that "you've underestimated your opponents" as me and the rest of the random team I've been put in gets rekt. Again. Yeah. It was my underestimating and not the matchmaking being total trash (like it has for the last couple of months) that caused it. For me (an average if I'm lucky PvP player) the matchmaking seemed to get a whole lot worse when Rise of Iron was released.
