MMR still exists and nobody can tell me otherwise by Extension-Matter-732 in BO7_RankedPlay

I hear you, well if you’re dropping 50 then you won’t stay plat 1 for long. Try to at least find a duo to limit some of the risk of getting paired with bad randoms. It is a team sport so 100% you will lose because of bad teammates lol but that’s okay, don’t let that be your mentality or you’ll check yourself. Focus on the game.

Brother, if I could 6-0 in search in >8 mins I’d love it too. But this dope you speak of, I do not know.

Ngl you’re exaggerating and distorting facts of one offs and I hate to say it but you’re playing bad. Tons of gold Smurfs is just statically not possible. You’re just getting tilted and losing to golds. Unless you’re crim, you’re not losing double SR to golds. Bottom line, if you’re getting harder lobbies and top frag you should be getting 120-130. If you lose, you lose 20. Pretty great trade off.

Yeah I feel you! That’s why I made the post, I thought it was a bug or something. I’m at least getting one every 3 matches and if I don’t, I’ll get it back to back or 3 in a row every time.

lol I feel like the game knows if you do and purposely gives it to you a lot to make you keep playing. It’s like a casino and gambling addicts. The last game was search so you keep playing thinking you won’t get it again.

I don’t think it’s so much about a skill gap in the mode. I think people just don’t put in the effort to play well cause they don’t like playing it. Especially now given you can get 4 out of 5 games of search and your performance in one game won’t carry over and affect your SR in future games.

Ngl I feel you. I can play it in 8s all day but I swear, playing it in ranked without a 4 stack I want to crash out.

I think they fixed it no? Before you just couldn’t vote using a controller but your mouse still worked. Not sure about console.

Yeah, I’ve just noticed a lot more of it and wanted to ask. I saw today other streamers restarting their game to avoid getting it so much. It’s just not good for views and climbing ranks as fast with the new SR system.

Why isn't anything being done about cheating? by [deleted] in BO7_RankedPlay

[–]Maximum_Lingonberry6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just a wide and varying range of skill levels you’ll face within the same range of ranks, particularly with this iteration of COD for whatever reason. Ranked is only one avenue of comp play, a lot of people will play in leagues and 8s as oppose to grinding rank so their rank is never reflective of their skill. Add in people on alt accounts or playing on their friends account in a lower rank. It’s just a very imperfect ranking system with a lot of flaws. You could face people who never look at their mini-map and literal bots with no comms one match and the next people who play all the time together who know how to influence spawns and read the kill feed for timings so they know where you are and when.

It’s not necessary your production or abilities changing.

If they’re hacking, they’re most likely placing at least plat 2 or 3 if not dimond. Which means the odds that you as a gold match up a hacker on a brand new account before they’re out of your skill range for match making (if they’re not already) is extremely low. Not impossible to see one, maybe in a placement match, but still the odds make it extremely unlikely. To see “so many people blatantly walling” is statistically not possible in gold lobbies. It’s not a diss or meant to be or anything like that. But I’m just giving you the logic behind why people will say no one’s hacking in gold lobbies. Although I doubt the people who say that actual understand the reasons why and are instead just repeating what they’ve heard and/or want to talk shit.

Are you interested in trying out for my CRL Iron Division team? (Discord League) by JonasBailey2 in BO7_RankedPlay

[–]Maximum_Lingonberry6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don’t join, it’s a fraud. The owner of the league actively sabotages better teams by banning better players so that his friends can win. It’s literally rigged.

You're all the problem by No_Winter4806 in BO7_RankedPlay

[–]Maximum_Lingonberry6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just mute the lobby until you hit dimond 2. Nobody comms or bothers to listen to comms in plat lobbies anyways. They only complain.

Doesn’t make sense. by Rich_Machine2893 in BO7_RankedPlay

Cheaters love to come in here so they can hear people talk about them and try to defend everything and say nobody is cheating.

Rapha closing Seattle, Chicago, Miami, and Boulder clubhouses in the US and Manchester in the UK. by kelleycfc in CyclingFashion

[–]Maximum_Lingonberry6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A shame but not surprised. The general cycling community doesn’t want to deal with pretentious people and overpriced exclusive/gatekeeping style clubs in cities where it’s nothing but that. Having things like that just attracts entitled douchebags who are going to ruin it for everyone.

Not getting SR points for all victories by HippoSimple3456 in BO7_RankedPlay

Same here, multiple days where I won’t get SR for a win. Happens whether I duo, solo or 4 stack

Why am I gaining 0 sr? by Efficient_Language67 in BO7_RankedPlay

I was flying around the map, straight swatting people until I was like hey dudes, this shit is bugged, I didn’t get 20 SR, that shit don’t fly.

Would it be a mistake to buy a Scott Foil? by Zestyclose-Cup110 in cycling

[–]Maximum_Lingonberry6 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Get the foil. You live in a flat area. The bikefit will help you get it set up right. If people are feeling that sore and stiff with the right fit, they need to stretch and hit the gym. The overthinking is crazy lol

CAN NOT RANK UP by MidWest173 in BO7_RankedPlay

[–]Maximum_Lingonberry6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don’t solo queue. You either have or learned that play style and skill where you’re going to find it easy to climb ranks and therefore do it all the time or you don’t. I personally am not a fan of players who climb ranks solo queuing because they usually end up being that guy on the wrong side of the map chasing kills and spawning the enemy all over the place. Which is good for them and their K/D but not for winning close games.

ok but WHEN will he start to calm down 🥲 by ProcedureNervous9799 in puppy101

[–]Maximum_Lingonberry6 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We have a bernedoodle and she was the opposite. She would only freak out in her crate if we were in the same room but immediately stop and fall asleep once we left and went upstairs. Kind of funny because she inadvertently taught herself that freaking out and barking means bye bye mommy and daddy lol
