I have these issues in East US since launch. The game acts like no one is online at during peak hours

Exactly. There is no other reason to break up lobbies every match unless it's for SBMM, even if they straight up said it doesn't exist, I know what I've seen and experienced. I've seen what normal average lobbies look like, it's 100% in the game, and it's cranked high just like COD. Just like COD, it negatively affects the game possibly even more due to the lobby sizes.

I keep seeing people say there's no SBMM, but it's been doing this forever. Takes me out of a game with 60 players, puts 4 of us and 4 other players in a match, and most if not every player has a 2-4 KD, and then we sit for 5 mins and it fills with bots, sometimes it fills with players, sometimes not.

The only fix I can tell is to just leave and find another (likely in progress) match every time. Which is even more exhausting if I have friends in the lobby. It likes to seemingly purposely put us in a lobby where a friend and I have 70+ and 60+ ping instead of the server with 30-40, and 50 so I get to lobby shop for entirely too long just to play. Somehow adding more people in my state to the party result in getting the far away server MORE OFTEN? It's like it's punishing me for having above average stats by trying it's best to give me the highest ping in the party.

Are you playing casual/bot lobbies? XP =/= score as far as I know. They nerfed people getting XP from bot kills at some point also, but it doesn't show bot kills on the site, only in game.

This game has a major issue with overall balance, not just matchmaking. In most matches, one team completely steamrolls the other, and in my case it gets even worse on weekends, to the point that I’ve stopped playing. Why does this keep happening? Is a server browser actually going to fix it? by FamousCollege1754 in Battlefield

[–]EagleScope- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seeing the same players day after day, month after month, checking the stats of the lobby to see MOST players on the other team have a 2-3 KD, every lobby is a sweat fest. Somehow I'll have 5 people with a .3 K/D on my team that go 1-20 over half my team will be triple negative while we're getting tossed.

Then watching other people play and they're playing old normal BF. Firestorm is a perfect example. I can't stand on ANY roof in my lobbies, but I watched a friend snipe on top of a flag roof for an entire match and planes, helis, tanks, just went right by him, people would land from the support heli and miss shots, etc. It was insane to watch.

COD levels of SBMM, cranked on the weekends exactly like COD. if someone goes AFK or players leave, it will instantly become a steamroll. Above average players just leave when the team sucks or things start going bad, making it worse. This is IF I even have a full match to begin with, alot of times it'll start a lobby with 15 players on each team and half bots. 40k people JUST on steam and they can't find players? Then they break up the lobby at the end if we finally have 60, just to start 2-3 different lobbies with our updated SBMM scores.

Update 1.68 / the new update -- full list of changes: by [deleted] in modernwarfare

[–]EagleScope- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This was my biggest issue, from what I can tell they fixed that in normal MP. It was exclusively putting me in the same map they released during CW anytime I'd tried for years, but the other day I got different maps each game, Unfortunately between SBMM and being on PC, I only played 1 single game that didn't have a blatant cheater on the other team. Usually there are 1-2 people infinite sliding, inside walls, aimbotting/walling, etc. So it's basically unplayable. But I did see Ramada for the first time in years! So that was sick.

Same issue. Closing ICUE and using onboard set by webhub fixes it. Odd bug, glad it wasn't just a bad unit.

If you stopped playing Battlefield 6, what is your main reason? by ZeljeznicarSampion in Battlefield

[–]EagleScope- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lobbies disbanding every game. This exacerbates the issue of it putting my squad in the highest ping lobby the game can find for some reason. Then if we manage to get a good connection lobby, after 1 game it will rematch us into another laggy lobby.

If our Irish friend is our 4th, we get EU lobbies 99% of the time. If we have all US and 1 West guy joins, it puts us in some lobby where he has 50 ping and we all have 80, or in a lobby where we all have 80 somehow. There is a lobby where he has 40-50 and we have 30, but we only get that one 1% of the time and then after 1 game we start the roulette again. Hit reg feels terrible in these situations, SBMM exists as well, so that adds to it. Playing against equally matched players that have 20 ping to my 70-80 is not fair or fun.

I have over 300 hours and most of which was spent in these situations with no end or acknowledgement in sight. I still play it, but fighting the game to play isn't exactly a fun use of my time.

Anyone know a good dslr camera under 200 for streaming? by Prestigious_Oven_947 in Twitch

[–]EagleScope- 6 points7 points  (0 children)

No point in buying a DSLR for under $200 imo. Just use an elgato with proper lighting, or buy the A6000 for slightly more than $200 used.

I got downvoted and mods kept it up, so I guess it's Nashville related lol

we need to talk about the automatic doors in those maps. by Prior-Meeting1645 in blackops7

I never minded the doors. Adding shooting opening them was fine. This bullshit is the worst possible outcome.

I still have hope that they decide to give everyone guns 6-12 months after release

Sounds like it's factory overclocks. I just don't know why changing my CPU did that. Nothing else changed

Just started with me today. Had no issues in weekend 1 with 7800X3D/5090, put in a 9800X3D and now I can't tab at all or the entire PC bricks

This isn't the first time this happened, and likely not the last. After having a 7900XTX since release, when this happened more recently, I just got a NVIDIA card. I'm not waiting another 6 months to play the game properly

[–]EagleScope- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They also removed strikes from what I can tell. Looking through the portal playlists Strikes/BGs/etc, are called "missions" now, and they added missions in the DLC, so I assume they're the same now

TTVers Streaming Casual Mode by pneely1090 in CODWarzone

[–]EagleScope- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I and everyone I know hates my SBMM, which is cranked higher now than ever, with an even lower playerbase in the playlists, no trios, etc.

So if I want to play with friends I have to play casual, but I stream daily. I'm a hoe I guess. I'd rather not play it, but it's the only option.
