SBMM. HAS. TO. GO. It's very consistently is placing me in a higher skill bracket for some reason. Since launch it has consistently been putting me against full squads (all have the same clan tag etc) at way higher levels than me and I'm getting killed constantly by people rocking gold camo guns while I'm just trying to level up shit.
I have not had a positive K/D since day 3 or so of the game's launch. I have a negative win/loss ratio now (I was up to like 72% first week). My score per minute is actual fucking garbage (89). I have not had a single game where I had a positive K/D in the last 4 hours. My team has won exactly 1 match in that entire timeframe. I've gone entire games without being able to get even a single 3-kill killstreak up tonight. The best performance of the last couple of hours was an 8-16 match. All of this is also coming at 1+ minute queue times and me having lobbies full of kb/m users every single match, and if I disable crossplay it's doubling my queue time.
I don't want to pubstomp, I just want to stop getting completely shit on nonstop because the game thinks I should be in a higher skill bracket or something. I was a pretty average player in past CoDs (~1.5 K/D) but even I would be able to get high end scorestreaks every once in a while, I got a few nukes, etc. This game since the first week or so of launch has just been me getting shit on over and over and over and over. And I don't even have scorestreaks to fall back on for support; giving up Ghost is too critical, and I've tried multiple times tonight and getting even a single UAV up is 500 points, and you only get 75 points for shooting down UAVs etc.
I'm honestly just legitimately not having fun anymore. And I've been playing other shooters in the few days I took off from this game *including* previous CoD's and I'm having absolutely zero difficulty. And it's not an "adapt" thing, it's "the game is constantly putting me in lobbies where the entire other team is going 40-2 and I'm literally on the top of my team half the time and I'm fucking 4-16" type shit. The game I just had I was literally 4-16 and top of my team, the *worst* player on the other team (Kill Confirmed) was 24-5. Like ~75% of my matches are the same thing, usually with the other team all having the same clan tag and my team appears to be all solo randoms with no one talking. It's the fucking matchmaking. I'm out at this point. I honestly hope the folks enjoying this continue to do so, I'm out until they do something with matchmaking/SBMM.
Edit: For shits and giggles I decided to try one more match. It put me in a Domination match where my team was getting triple capped, I died on spawn to an enemy VTOL, my team was losing 154-37, but I'm penalized for quitting out of this match it puts me in? Fuck completely off IW.
