NOT A CRYING POST. I'm not sure if everyone would agrees to this but IF you could look from solo perspective I'm sure you would. All I want is fix for this because this is not working out.
I finally understand why people have been crying for so long to remove SBMM. I've been playing this game since day one and enjoyed it. I've always played this game solo. Yes, I made some friends over playing the game and really good friends. But its not always the same for everyone because life first. Since I cant not play with them often as before I go solo. I never minded having bad and new teammates in my team. I'm No where to be call grate player. I'm just a normal and little competitive.
- I'm currently plat 2 and I'm keep getting players who are plat IV which would have been fine If I wasn't placed against higher diamond or pred players every game. More over hackers, If you play in Asian server you would know. The quantity is bigger here. So playing ranked here is not rewarding at all. You get Bot teammates who loots all game and die at first fight and watch you fight or die and plus you have to deals with hackers every 3-4th game here. I've won like 6-8 games till now in S5 ranked and placed top 5 more than 50 times out of like 90 games. Because Its always me who is mostly playing and while teammates are dead with 300 to 400 damage.
- SOLO experience would be so much better if they atleast put one good players in solo team against if you wanna put masters and higher pre made teams. The more I learn the game and try to go higher ranked the more BS it gets. I know there always will be hacker but about teammates that can be fixed.
- Current rank system is so bad that lets you climb up without any hardwork. People reach plat and diamond without even fighting. Not every one but most people do who know how to abuse the system. Majority of players are stuck at plat 4 and D4 only because they got there somehow. Based of how I get teammates I believe P4 and D4 are the place where people get stuck and the reason is they are over their skill cap. I only say this Its "MAJORITY" not few. ( LETTING RANK FALL DOWN IN TIRES WOULD BE A GOOD WAY FOR PLAYERS TO WORK SERIOUS )
No offence to any players I know lot of people actually work hard to get their ranks up . Again this might sound like a crying post but its not because IDK how else I can say this. If anyone read this and hopefully thinks there could be solution please write here or let respawn acknowledge this situation for solo players.
