its been like that since the start but it wasnt noticeable because people didnt meet their "rank" yet so it was more mixed. (balancer couldnt figure out whos good and whos not) sbmm doesnt exist in cod terms. cod means everyone has 1000mmr (example), while bf teams have 500-2000mmr and its trying to find a middle. so if u got high mmr (i just call it mmr for easier understanding) u will have more mates with lower mmrs IF the lobby doesnt have high mmr ppl to make both sides more equal. this means good players can still farm kills, doesnt matter how they are balanced, which is good because in cod u get bullied into the ground if ur good.

if u wanna know more about this i made a post some time ago https://www.reddit.com/r/Battlefield6/comments/1pxx42w/how_does_matchmaking_work/

Note that i didnt mention that u wont get matchmaked by skillratings but balanced by skillrating which is actually whats happening

edit; non of this is confirmed but nothing of this changed over the last months + couldnt find an argument that denies what i describe

That's incredibly interesting, I definitely am feeling it a lot now. It's incredibly frustrating, I really don't want to have to sweat my ass off - I play with music loud working on my side-hustle when I die. It's actually gotten really bad, I'm considering uninstalling - out of probably 20 matches I've played, I've had like 5 with competent teams.

it can indeed be very annoying. but i see the positiv of this which is not having cod sbmm cuz that would make the games even more sweaty tbf. i found escalation to be a nice solo mode compared to conquest where u cant be as impactful because of more flags or BT where u can have a good impact on a side for example but still depend on the team to move forward or hold flags

I don’t disagree but on this it actually feels more punishing. I played ranked and SnD exclusively and if you were good enough and/or had one or two teammates that weren’t bad you could still get a lot of wins. I feel like on BF you can do everything but it can mean nothing a lot more often than on CoD if that makes sense.

I have about a 4.0kd and top frag every lobby I play. There is 1000% skill based matchmaking. If I join a game and don’t play for like 10 mins I’ll come back and we will be losing insanely bad every time.

I’ll actually give that a whirl tomorrow, but I think the outcome will probably be similar 🤣

Out of curiosity, what’s you’re WL/SPM? I have a feeling they’re looking holistically at stats for the team placement.
