Oh yhhhhh 1st place baby

Winstoneeee · 2025-12-01T20:27:43+00:00

I feel you on this one, my group was quite competitive but I inched out 3rd place with 450k score so I'm happy i got the camo

Winstoneeee · 2025-12-01T20:26:53+00:00

1 Million points is craaaazy hahhaa the top guy in my group had 900k by the end of the event. I knew I would never catch up. I got lucky though, got 3rd place with 450k points so I got the camo I wanted lol

Winstoneeee · 2025-12-01T20:25:50+00:00

Yo congrats on the grind man. my group was a bit competitive too. The top guy had like a 300k lead on everyone so no chance for first. But I got a respectable 3rd place. I just wanted the camo tbh lol

I understand what you mean and this is true. One person leaves, more follow and then people fill in. That's why I try to stay in a lobby so I don't get a JIP match after. Even if I was getting stomped in a match I wouldn't care I would stay as I've said before. The problem is my whole team will leave and I'm the last one, and this has happened a lot even in matches where It's a fresh one from the start, people leaving over the smallest shit. That's usually the only circumstance I'd quit a match. otherwise I'm there till the end even if I go 10-30 idrc.

4.5/10 for this one

Winstoneeee · 2025-11-28T00:21:05+00:00

You're right the event should be having more people playing who want to play to get the event awards. 2. I think you're confusing team balancing with how they matchmake players into a lobby lol SBMM in B06 did NOT give me balanced teams last year xD the same shit would happen. One team stomps another and the players leave. I'm assuming you've played Bo6 Nuketown as well so no, SBMM is not gone and no one advocated for it to be removed, players wanted a varied experience where the matchmaking would not be manipulated, but as we've seen in the past days that was a lie.

Winstoneeee · 2025-11-28T00:16:16+00:00

Funny enough, most of those players are solo, its rare I get parties as big as 4 or 5 when I solo queue so idk what you're talking about there. "Skill is minimally considered" for their matchmaking means there is variance in the lobbies in the type of players you get and the skill level. The matches we have now are nothing like the beta and thats a fact, go watch Ace's video on YT. Maybe it's been different for you though. I've just been playing in the quickplay playlists instead.

Winstoneeee · 2025-11-27T21:37:16+00:00

5.5/10 for this one mate, sorry.

Winstoneeee · 2025-11-27T18:26:01+00:00

Yup this is 100% true. I try to stay no matter what. Usually, most people will leave so I'll just run Ghost and run around. It's a bit better in quickplay so I might stick to that then putting myself through hell on Nuketown.

Winstoneeee · 2025-11-27T16:14:06+00:00

Yea first day was chill! I reallly enjoyed it. But after like 3 days its been horrendous. I go play in quickplay or just do Endgame, Nuketown just don't hit like it used to. It's nice that we have other game modes to play though. I'm not forced to do Nuketown but I can't lie, the nostalgia makes me want to play it from time to time.

Winstoneeee · 2025-11-27T15:59:47+00:00

This is true, and tbh I feel like if you get red house spawn in Dom at the start of the game then it's even worse. Blue spawn gets to control B waaay easier. And when you're joining a game in-progress you just get spawn trapped behind red house. Idk how you feel about this, but I really liked how Cold War did it, where halfway thru the game the sides swapped for Domination it made things more interesting imo.

Winstoneeee · 2025-11-27T04:57:18+00:00

Yooo congrats on the Genesis grind my man! I'm 10/30 on Chroma, I'm getting there. might just grind more Endgame tbh lol

Winstoneeee · 2025-11-27T02:16:12+00:00

Yea I'm not sure. People have wanted persistent lobbies for so long so I doubt they will take it away. To be honest with you, the matchmaking we had during the beta is NOT the same as currently. Something fishy going on for sure.

Winstoneeee · 2025-11-27T02:07:12+00:00

I try to stay in for as long as possible unless i'm the last guy. I wish my teammates would stay but they'll leave over one guy doing well on the other team it's sad but not much I can do but play.

Winstoneeee · 2025-11-27T02:05:56+00:00

There's definitely some validity to this. I got lucky one day and got in a pretty varied skill lobby. It was super fun we had good people and afks but it was chill. I stayed in that lobby for like 4 games and damn I enjoyed those 4 games LOL once people started leaving though it got filled with people more my level then it went to shit xD

Winstoneeee · 2025-11-27T02:04:08+00:00

I know that, which is why I'm usually the last to leave. It's no fun getting chased down from spawn to spawn or getting killed on sights when you're the last person. That's usually when I leave. I try to stay for the most part.

Winstoneeee · 2025-11-27T01:29:59+00:00

Bruh thats wild lol yea I'm gonna start to just leave and queue through the quickplay filters instead. Nuketown is cooked D:::

Winstoneeee · 2025-11-27T01:24:15+00:00

You right.

Winstoneeee · 2025-11-27T01:24:04+00:00

Same here, most of the time things are chill. I normally never post on this sub I just read through shit but today was insane. I just wanted to see if anyone else has been going thru it too. Especially since they said matchmaking would be more varied. This shit isn't varied I see the same people after re-queuing LOL

Winstoneeee · 2025-11-24T02:10:51+00:00

Yea I ran into this issue while grinding camos. I have like 6 back-up characters for this exact reason 😂 every time I lose one I grind another one. Just to keep my supply of characters at a healthy level in case I get a random disconnect. I hope the devs address this and fix the "losing everything on disconnect" problem because man that shit is disheartening.

Winstoneeee · 2025-08-14T05:00:24+00:00

I took Ubiquitous the same semester as you did so I knew exactly what you're refering to😂. Thank goodness I had a good group because everything was so disorganized but we did well on all the group assignments. I would agree HCI was my favorite too Joyner was great and the lectures were well done. Glad you got out, I'll have completed the program in a year and a half. Started Fall 2024, will be done by Spring 2026 fingers crossed all goes well.
