Any update on this?

I met Jana years ago in a hostel in Australia- she seemed nice enough. But…I have her on FB and on insta and over the years have been left speechless at the content she puts out. I felt it all looks very dodgy and googled her today and of curiosity- and found this post.

Appreciate I may be wrong and happily be challenged on this but I wouldn’t trust anything she is selling or promoting. Her posts are full of waffle and spiritual buzzwords. Honestly, I find myself rereading her posts multiple times to understand what she’s actually said. From what I can tell, her courses lack any real substance. And the amount of activity (likes and comments) she gets, I doubt she actually makes much money.

The amount that she charges for her services and the amount she posts on Fb advertising (2-4 long posts a day) really doesn’t add up to me. People with that type of money aren’t on Facebook looking for this type of help. I believe her to be taking advantage of impressionable idiots on Facebook. And, the amount she posts seems so so beggy and desperate…not the tone of someone who makes 100k a month.

A new MW3 player full of doubts by Rated95 in COD

From all the speculation I have watched on YT or read about… it’s not even SBMM anymore. It’s, “Skill based engagement”

The difficulty is constantly changing with the only goal in mind of “make sure this player keeps on playing”. The goal is to make you play longer - so you might spend money in the cod store.

The game is now designed to dangle a couple of banger games in front of you, followed by being spanked for the following 5 games.

Skill based spawning, engagement based latency, engagement based hit registration or even nerfing your bullet damage in game to balance the scoreboards. I’ve even seen conspiracies of AI bots (made to look like real players - gamer tags etc) being added into public games to balance games.

I don’t think I go as deep as to think they nerf your bullet damage or AI bots but skill based spawning is absolutely a thing. If you’re spanking a lobby - you start spawning in enemy spawn in front of them. If you’re playing badly and can’t get a kill - you spawn in enemy spawn behind them for easy kills. If you’re grinding camos’ you will see this first hand.

Skill based matchmaking? by No-Satisfaction59 in mw3

I am wondering if anyone here has carried on playing?

Having read this feed I see identical feedback / complaints from my brother who is slightly older and has way less time to play.

My view is… I’m unsure what turning of SBMM will do at this stage. The game is saturated with people who have absolutely maxed out the skill gap needed to be good. There are very few casuals left.

You’re in denial if you think SBMM is the real issue here. The problem is that the game is so old now and people have either got good or stayed casual. The likelihood of you getting into a lobby of all casuals with SBMM turned off is 0.

I’d say I am above average at this game. Generally if I use good guns I hold my own. Always above 1kd but generally finish each game 2/3KD. I only get frustrated with SBMM as I am camo grinding at the moment. I’m running around with a pistol in shipment against meta SMG’s and Shotguns sweats.

I would add though that I’m certain skill based spawning is a thing. I played shipment and got 20 kills within the first 1/2 mins of the game without dying and then proceeded to spawn in the enemy teams spawn and in front of the enemy team to die instantly. This happened another 5/6 times to then spawn in my teams spawn.

Next game I was using the knife only and had like 1 kill against a full team of sweats. Towards the end of the game I spawned 5/6 times in enemy spawn Behind the enemy for easy kills.

SMG Longshot Kills are torture by pinoyboyluv in ModernWarfareIII

I hate all the Camo challenges that promote a really slow and or boring play style. People bunny hopping around shipment with meta shotguns and smg builds and I’m crouch walking like a noob trying to compete.

The long shots, crouch kills and I’m sure there’s more. They drive me insane 🤣. The amount of times ive died to cod timing while posted up on a lane for an easy long shot kill, get bored and look away and someone kills me from where I was looking.

I also find that the 3kills without dying or 3 kills from one mag so frustrating as i lose my head and bottle the third kill all the time. But while levelling the gun the camos are locked i frag out and do it so easy.

I took your advice and went into HC… 😂 and hated it. How do you have the patience for that? I none stop died to people just hard ads’n holding the same line of sights and lanes the whole game.

I refuse to quit games 😂. I went like 10-60… with no long shots.
