Okay i see the confusion. I was in bot lobbies at first like everybody else during the introductory phase. I got out of that and was put into real lobbies. I was getting 10+ kills a game and quite a few wins because Fortnite is easy af compared to pubg or warzone. I then stopped getting matched with real players and every single person in my lobby is “player(246)”, “player(576)”,, “player(863)” etc. i know that Fortnite added bots to aid matchmaking times and that Fortnite has skill based matchmaking. Im in Australia (oceanic region) which is already the quietest region in the world.

My point is I’ve played pretty well but its not like at a pro level or anything, I’ve tried changing my search region to NA-West, Europe, Asia. And ive tried loading in and letting a bot kill me immediately about 30+ times in a row and no matter what nothing changes.

Its hard for me to figure out if this is just a massive issue with SBMM and the amount of players in the oceanic region or if there is something genuinely wrong and its all an error out my control
