COD is a uniquely casual mulitplayer game (it's not a Rainbow Six Siege or Overwatch) with overpowered/broken design elements to help newer/bad players do well/have fun. It does not behave well with a strict and or possibly predatory SBMM/engagement based matchmaking systems.

Another issue with this is that in some systems you cannot rank down. My friend and I played a bunch of Apex between season 2-5. So SBMM matched us with Dias and Masters. We then took a break for a few seasons. Then we queued up again and guess what: Pred champions squad and only Dia and Masters banners for the whole night. Same goes for R6. Even on a 10 game loose streak I don't seem to rank down and find easier matches. I just wanna get back into playable games man.

Youre on the dot with this one. I played valorant when it first came out and hit diamond. I was pretty decent but quit for a few years and I came back to essentially the same diamond games when im nowhere near that level anymore. I went 0-7 my first match and just couldnt embarrass myself any longer so I left the match and uninstalled. Im not even going to bother trying to get back into that game.

Sbmm is like going bowling, throwing a gutter ball, then it gives you a strike. To keep you there. Then 300 game vets throw strikes and always get splits. Embarrassing

SBMM existing in casual modes is so incredibly unhealthy for games. Imagine if we banned casual basketball, tennis, or baseball in the real world and you could only play it if you signed up for a team? That'd be asinine! Yet these game companies keep introducing that very same principle year after year? What happened to playing games for fun.

I think people would be okay with SBMM if it made more sense. Everyone has been there where one decent match means you’re gonna be slammed for the rest of the night. I think it shows how aggressively SBMM systems seek to punish someone who does well, which makes them unpopular. If it was more gradual, or if it would settle down quicker, it wouldn’t be an issue. But these people try to game your psychology, and there’s probably some twisted reason why they make SBMM so punishing.

The last thing i think you're a bit right, it makes you a bit addicted at the games. I never had interest in FPS until a few months ago, i always knew i was bad at those type of things, but then i fell into the competitive rabbit hole. The stats, the ranked thing, i started comparing myself to other players, i started to get frustrated: why am i not good enough? I need to feel like my stats are good enough. When i'm only starting in this! The expectations now are too high (because normally it is expected that you're only good when you play almost perfectly) and i think that's why there's so much problem with casual gaming. It's almost non-existent nowadays, that's why there are really toxic players, i myself got toxic moments, like quitting matches because i was too afraid "my stats would drop and i would be even worse than before". That makes you addicted, and that makes you feel that sense of urgency "i need to get better right now at this game", when you only started at this yesterday. It's also the shaming for being "a noob" or for being "bad", when it doesn't really matter. I tell you the truth, i watched so much gameplays or livestreams with people playing good (not perfect, but really really good) and there was inmediatly that person saying: "you're bad, you're horrible at this", just because they weren't watching some top 1 player level gameplay. I think it could be more of a personal issue, but i do feel that videogames became extremely competitive nowadays, more than they should. Some are even hollow and just have the competitive factor, but they keep people into the addiction hole. The best times of the FPS i got into were when i just discovered them and i was figuring out how to play, it's so much fun, and you even laugh at your deaths. But when you get into the majority of them, you start to see how extremely competitive they are

The game would play how it did on COD4. And that’s why I had so much fun back then; even when brand new

The only problem with sbmm is that it can’t find a lobby full of players with your same skill so it gives you a higher ping against lower skill players making hit reg and EOMM more obvious. The game predetermines the winner in the fight not you and because of that we keep restarting the match out of spite thinking it was just a lag spike or strange aim resist, delayed audio…

The problem with SBMM isnt matching skills its self its how inaccurate most games are at it

As someone who isn’t bad at games as I’ve been playing them my while life, SBMM sucks. I now have a job and college to attend to and when I boot up apex legends and hop into trios I don’t want to have to be facing masters players just because I have an above average K/D

I think one solution to solve this dilemma is to go back to how Halo Reach did matchmaking and have the ability to choose how the matchmaking worked. Connection, balanced, or skill based.

The issue is SBMM and it's ancestor ELO are very old systems designed primarily for 1v1 games like Chess, so they run into issues once you have to account for teams and skills being more varied. In a Chess game it's simple as person A won so they gain rating, person B lost so they lose that same rating. But once you get teams, well how do you track who was the most skilled? Was it the one who got the most kills? The one who died the least? The one who did the most damage? Maybe it's the one whose actually at the bottom of the team leaderboard because they spent their time directing and supporting their team mates.

You're supposed to improve gradually. If you lose to somebody on your level or slightly better/worse, it likely at least was a match and you can look at individual things you did wrong. With fighting games as an example, there might be some move you don't know how to respond to or an aspect like failing to get enough damage out of openings you find. When you get curbstomped by someone way out of your league, you might be humbled, but "he did EVERYTHING better" isn't a particularly useful information for training. Even worse, they might straight up be cheesing, doing things that are actually bad and only work against someone much worse, but they can get away with it because of better execution or beating you in every other aspect. So no, I don't think being completely overwhelmed magically tranfers that knowledge to you. Critically judging your own performance and improving one step at a time does.

In older MMOs and in shooters like GunZ in my region of the world, there was no such thing as SBMM. There's only guild/clan wars and a leaderboard. Players should have the prerogative to challenge whoever they want and accept/reject any challenge they want, but it should come at the cost of: castles/resources - MMO, Clan rankings/prestige (FPS/TPS) Smurfing, boosting, deranking, sandbagging, are all symptoms of the sickness that is SBMM.

Uggh you were so right about pubs being more sweaty than ranked in apex, I hate the sbmm in that game. It kinda killed my interest in playing shooters

My son when he was little played a ton of overwatch on my account. So when I played the game I flat out dominated for a long time because my MMR was so low. This account was stuck getting placed in silver and gold for a while and my winning percentage would be 70% plus all roles season after season. It was fun having friends who were silvers and golds and going on big win streaks all the time, everyone was happy. I got called a Smurf rarely because people could look at my account and see how many games it played. But if you looked at my recent seasons after my son got his own account you’d see some insane stats. If your a grown man and want to have fun let little kids play on your account when your working or busy.

so glad i was recommended this video bro keep it up

I'm glad you brought up Val. Your MMR is different than your rank. I don't play ranked a lot, as I hate that type of play, but I apparently am ranked bronze to silver 2. I stopped playing at silver 2. In ranked I consistently play against full gold teams some platinum. And then TDM I'm consistently up against ascendant and immortal players. When I say consistently, I mean every single game I have an ascendant or immortal player on the opposing team, or multiple. I don't even think I'm that great, I'm good sometimes and I can pull off some wild stuff but I'm not consistent enough. Having to play against these players who only play this game all the time is really obnoxious. This is due to my hidden MMR. I only solo queue when I play ranked. So I'm somehow being pushed into bronze because I consistently lose cuz I'm always playing against gold and platinum players and my team is usually silver or bronze. It's completely fucked. It Makes me hate games, and I love games. Considering quitting entirely. For reference, also a diamond halo player, Plat in overwatch, and was a 2.18 KD player in WZ with 50 nukes to my name in CoD. They are apparently manipulating bullet damage as well. It's too much. It is a bane on gaming.

I remember playing social on Halo 3 and usually there was always one person better than everyone in free-for-all but you were fighting so many different skill levels just in one game that it didn't make the overall experience bad

A really annoying trend i've observed recently in some games is them putting SBMM into a game that already has skill rankings . From a couple recent experiences (Destiny 2 comp and Overwatch 2 Comp) having SBMM in comp means that no matter what rank you are, you are (ideally of course) going against basically copies of yourself every game, which then makes every game effectively a coinflip. This is not great for a couple reasons. Chief among them being, that you often lose the feeling of progression that makes competitive games fun, because ranking up is now much harder in practice, even if you do acutally improve. (again, cause sbmm in comp results at its "best" in a 50% win rate.) I personally think that rather than putting SBMM in casual and ranked modes, it would be better to instead do it the old way, connection based matchmaking with skill based team balancing. Altogether, i resonate greatly with a lot of the points in the video, cause for me, i don't particularly enjoy every single match being extremely similar. The main reason i play multiplayer pvp games, is cause they change from match to match, cause your oponents are real people. SBMM takes away from that, cause under it, everybody is (ideally) on the same skill level and you dont get many standout games during a play session. I i sometimes greatly enjoy coming up against high skill players in games i play, cause it opens my eyes to what i could improve on. On the other hand, i also enjoy dropping a 50 kill game on the odd occasion im the best player in the match by a mile, cause im only human. Under SBMM those fun moments are way too rare and i wish it wasnt in most multiplayer games today.

This is all from patent/US20200114268A1 last re-application/updated in 2019 when the IW9 engine was made for MWR. Pay money = timmy lobbies; "For example, in one implementation, the system may include a microtransaction engine that arranges matches to influence game-related purchases. For instance, the microtransaction engine may match a more expert/marquee player with a junior player" Pay money = "bot" lobbies; "The matchmaking system and method may be leveraged in various contexts as well, such as to influence game-related purchases, recommend a composition of groups of players, train or identify non-player characters (NPCs) that should be used, and/or other contexts." "For example, in a game in which the system has determined that five snipers and five run-and-gunners represent an optimal mix of player roles, the system may select NPCs to fill gaps such that the desired combination of five snipers and five run-and-gunners is achieved to the extent possible (because potential matches having this ratio will have higher match scores)." ping is not king; "A game designer or others may assign a default value to one or more coefficients. For example, a match variable related to a composition of a team may, by default, be more important than a match variable related to latency and may therefore be weighted more heavily when generating a match score."

SBMM is only bad in games like cod because you literally have no idea where you stand as a player since there's no ranks and no rewards based on your own skill level, which means games get progressively harder the more you play and the better you do but you have nothing to show for it. For example in cod I can't flex my global elite rank or my lvl 10 faceit because there's nothing like it, all I can say about it is how sweaty my lobbies are and that just makes me look bad at the game. I think SBMM has a place in games like, csgo, valorant, rocket league, league of legends and even apex, BUT cod, battlefield and games focused on "fun" should either have it extremely subtle as to protect those with impairments and really new players or get rid of it

With the quality of your work, I was surprised on how underrated you are. You have a new sub!

Wow i was really surprised when i saw you only had 1k subs, very well put together video that you clearly put a lot of time and effort into

This is insane content ngl amazing editing and writing!

Playing a diverse lobby with good and bad players is nice. The wheat can separate itself. When everyone is the same your win rate and kd are almost guaranteed to be 5050. Which is trash

SBMM should remain in games that are actually competitive (zero to no RNG) think of chess for example. In valorant a 13-0 sweep is boring for both parties. The closer the game, the more you are on edge, the more fun the game. games like cod and apex should have ranked matchmaking in their ranked playlist, but not in their casuals. (letting people decide if they want to compete or not) For games to be fun with sbmm, the game needs to be build with competition in mind.(finding weapons in Apex is RNG, CODs maps and gamedesgin makes the game RNG) This results in the player being frustrated, because too often, the player looses, due to simple being unlucky.(timings from bad map design, weaker guns, etc) Players want to have an even playing field while competing. If thats not provided, the implementation of SBMM results in the highlighting of the mistakes of the game(weapon balance, maps, TTK, Kbm vs controller balance etc)

Halo Infinite SBMM is in a worse state than most because I swear on my life that it's designed to let you have 3 FUN matches and then proceeds to match you against players way out of your skill level for 3-5 games, and you end up getting ass blasted into kingdom come and just calling it a night.

Yes! I will only speak on COD, but I have written up some thoughts on the matter: I believe that the vast majority of players are average, bit below average, and a bit above average. Just as the bellcurve you showed. Most games most of the time would be made up of those players. All of those players could have fun, do well, and or help their team someway (play the objective, camp so hard their KD is positive in a TDM despite not being that skillful, etc...). Small story about that, I befriended someone on the 360 days with a 5+ KD, I was thinking he must be the best player ever, but when I played with him, he would rock a ghillie suit in tall grass, cold blooded so he's safe from any killstreaks or UAVs, and literally go like 4-0 or 5-1 in a 10 minute TDM. Was he a great player? I would say no. COD is also unique in the sense so much of its multiplayer design philosophy basically appeals to newer players (MW2 2009 through and through, although it's the entire series and why it's so famous). If you remove all of these elements, you get a much better true competitive game (but then it turns into Rainbow Six Siege or completely different game). No longer COD at that point. These design elements shrink the skill gap. Bad players could use the overpowered weapons, perks, strats, etc.. and have success. A few One Man Army noobtubes (extreme example and probably should have gotten patched but it was common) and they get a care package. One care package could very well be an AC-130. A bad player would also kill a better player all the time with such method. Replace OMA with hardcore camping (because if you have the pre-aim advantage, could very well defeat a better player), martyrdom, last stand, low recoil 2 shot stopping power assault rifle, etc... Those same OP meta loadouts in a consistently high skilled lobby makes for MW2019 where everyone is rocking a shotgun as their secondary with claymores behind every door. The same exact playstyle every match because you either adopt it or lose. Yay, can't wait for everyone to use the M4 again. Also considering how lobbies changed up between games, if you had the misfortune of having an MLG reject going against you, you could very well have him on your team the following match. And even when facing an elite 42069 pubstar, you could still kill his teammates (or capture the A & B flags in domination and beat him that way). Now in the less common but definite occurrence of a full party dominating you, that sucks and people would back out (being their own SBMM). Although who knows if an MLG reject joins your team and can single handily turn the tide against a big party. Basically what I'm getting at is variables. Variables all day everyday. Maybe you get dominated one match but you learn exactly how that opponent is playing and are smart enough to simply cut him off on his rushing routes or hardscope his popular spots with a sniper/grenade launcher/grenade.

New subscriber. This video was great, I didn't understand completely the meaning of SBMM before, now I got a better idea. Thx

Subbed. Very well done and nice quality video! One thing-most (if not all) multiplayer games use EOMM now. It’s all about player retention my friend. It’s gone far beyond them “caring” about the playerbase.

It really comes down to this: Should a player have the ability to improve so they have a fair competitive edge?

The problem is SBMM is that it’s forced into casual lobbies. It’s great for tanked modes but what is the point of casual lobbies if they’re just as sweaty as ranked?

Nice video! As others said, the quality is definitely above your sub count. Keep it up and I wish you success in the future.

Yo this video is a huge W, keep up the great work!

I remember playing COD back in the day with no SBMM, improving at the game and then getting absolutely demolished by a guy who spends 15h+ a day on the game was so humbling, yet motivating because you wanted to be that guy, nowadays you just say”sweat”,”stop trying so hard” back in the day I used to send a friend request and hope they added me back

Amazing video bro. SBMM is absolutely ruining casual multiplayer in so many games. Halo Infinite is a great example of a gane held back by an awful SBMM system.

bro i was so surprised when you said you got 400 subs and then looked down i saw 500 jesus i thought you had like thousands from like the quality of your videos i immediately subbed

hidden sbmm is ruining gaming ftfy

Ngl great video thought you had way more subs based on how well made it was

personally i blame mostly the alt accounts. It truly sets the system in a spiral “ wtf lvl 1 dropping 30+ kills… maybe it was a good game and got lucky” and then they get put on my lobbies and im like “why do i get the new players but they get the alt accounts”

So well done. Thank you.

There should be Random lobbies and SBMM for Ranked

I think siege has found the perfect formula where there is casual games basically all levels all ranks unranked where its still all ranks and stuff but you actually try to win and not mess around and of course ranked where you play against players your rank

holy nice video, glad you got recommended to me

The worst is when u are legit good at a game and then you must play against cheaters

Great video man, I slapped the like button 😁👍

Nice video bro! Wishing you sucess!

lowkey I thought this vid had 100k views. I didnt realise u had 400 subs until you said. Cracked content

This was a very good video. Prior to this I didn't know what sbmm was, and after watching i feel sufficiently educated to decide i don't like/support sbmm even though I'm and older and lower skilled player my self. I didn't know why CODM felt different the FP shooters I played as a teenager/ early 20s adult but know i know. The gaming experience has been throttled (so to speak) which makes for a super bland and boring experience, even for lesser skilled older individuals that don't have the reaction time of a fly like our teenage counterparts.

@suburbanwill shout-out to my boy Will for making this video, definitely agree to your take on SBMM, i myself am in similar situation being 30 year old and reaching the peak of my Apex skills, day one player, often solo Q but this season finally last straw and hanged the boots. Pubs are sweatier than Ranked and ranked is matching you with higher ranks while not letting you team up with them after match. Zero sense, don't know if both is KD related but sucked the joy out of casual few hours a week gaming. I have both 20k and 4k badges but mostly soloQ and if not 3 stacks predators that got me than it's roller with no movement or with strikepacks, zen on. Community is crying out loud for some changes since it ruins the fun for casual(majority). Peace out

I DID NOT EVEN HAVE TO WATCH THE VID!!! THANK U SOMEONE FINALY SAID IT!!!

ur so underrated bro, keep it up!

7:38 YES FINALLY THANK YOU

Apex is the most egregious out of all these shooters. As a solo player you’re literally supposed to lose matches, once you lose enough the game tosses you a bone for persistence. Really shouldn’t be played solo unless you’re casual.

One thing it does really well on the other hand is smurfing, you’ll go a few games on a new account and your mmr is the same as your main.

How do i find the best vpn servers for mw3?

I have felt these sentiments against SBMM over years of playing COD and other shooters. It has taken this long for me to admit that I hated on SBMM because I had a fragile ego and that I always wanted to steamroll in my games. If you just want to "turn your brain off and have fun", why would you expect to win? In reality, you just want to stomp on lesser skilled players without trying as hard because trying it not as fun compared to not trying. Essentially, you want to win without putting in the effort. People always complain about playing against "sweats" after winning two games as if they weren't the sweat destroying the lobbies that brought them there. It is true that SBMM results in smurfing, which we can all agree is bad. But smurfing has the same effect on a lobby as one without SBMM. In both scenarios, you have people way more skilled than their opponents that, frankly, do not belong in a game together. We label smurfing as bad yet we want to destroy lower skilled players? I hope you all see the hypocrisy. This mindset is incredibly self-centered and naive in the scope of game design. With all this being said, I do believe that games such as COD or Fortnite could benefit from lessening their skill-based matchmaking severity, as those games are designed to be streak-y and casual.

Apex is the best example

In apex unranked schouldn‘t have sbmm, but for games like ow and valirant there needs to be some matchmaking, it doesn’t have to be strict at all but In team games you need people who are closer to your skill level, overwatch quickplay does it great, its not sweaty att all. A game like league of legends where it’s basically a 1v1 needs very strict sbmm, because you scale. I do nor mind playing against someone much better and winning 10% of the 1v1s but if that person gains 5% stats for everytime he kills me it starts getting extremely unfun

One point that I don't think you addressed, SBMM is actually TRASH at what it says it does. I have no idea how the people that defend it get brainwashed so hard. Tyler 1 from league of legends had a whole series that lasted I think over a year where he got himself to challenger rank in various different roles. He played the game full time during this time. Why did it take the "skill" based matchmaking system that long to put a top player in the top ranks? Because it's not "skill" based matchmaking, it's an artifical grind manufactured to keep you playing for as long as possible. You can't just give a masters level player masters in his first game because you need him to keep grinding. People think they are protecting new players from being preyed upon by better players, but sbmm literally puts them in to a giant pen and says "HEY!!! HERE ARE ALL THE NEW/TRASH PLAYERS, COME GET EM."

I don't mind sbmm in comp. I'm perfectly fine with it in comp. I 100% mind it in casual though. As it just feels like I'm playing comp but without any of the rewards of playing comp.

and less toxic, that's why i prefer casual over ranked. and that's also why sbmm in casual is not only a good idea, it's mandatory. otherwise u force every single player who wants to have fun vs same skilled enemies in toxic ranked games.

I am a competitive player in practically any game I play, and personally it does not affect me in terms of difficulty in SBMM, but it does affect me in the long waiting times that there are, sometimes I just want to play a quick game without further ado. sbmm is socialism in games, any side where it is applied destroys it

Another reason why Fortnite is a more casual friendly game is the inclusion of bots and the ratio of bots/real players is adjusted quickly depending how good or bad your games go. I was surprised you didnt mention another problem with SBMM and that is the sandbag problem as in a decently good solo player gets matched with much lower skilled teammates while going against teams on the good player level. It adds another layer of frustration and toxicity to modern gaming. Lastly I blame streamer culture for creating a new generation of extremely sweaty players. Metas are now instantly defined instead of taking weeks to form since everyone can watch what the pros are doing. And the advent of Cronus Zen and soft aimbot devices has completely ruined the competitive intregrity especially in games like Apex where is just rampant. Suffice to say even casual games like Fortnite are starting to lose interest because why bother to be good? I even dread the thought of winning a match now since i know ill be put into a sauna of a lobby with some dude with 600 crown wins. My prediction that co-op games are gonna rise in popularity among the casual playerbase if this kind of matchmaking continues

insanely good video

I have no idea what any of your words mean, all I know is that social Halo infinite is absolutely terrible because it's a constant sweat fest. I miss Halo 3 social when I could turn my brain off and have fun.

I’m happy about sbmm and the poor direction of the recent cod games because I ended up playing other games that I enjoy much more

"the better you get the more you get punished" yup, imagine practicing for half a year for two games where you win just return right back to getting insta hs... It's dumb

Fornite has a big problem with SBMM, you can hardly ever win because there is usually 3-4 sweatiest sweats that will just camp on the rift island and snipe everyone who comes near
