They've actually done it. No SBMM lobbies for this game. Amazing.
-
One of the COD leakers has said that the no SBMM matchmaking will be in this game but they don't know if it's the default matchmaking or if it will be a separate playlist. Obviously it needs to be default with SBMM reserved for rank play. If it's in its own playlist then I'll just be sticking to that.
-
Activision have fucked themselves with this one as it's shown that they're lying pricks. They put out those documents about their matchmaking process and they claimed that ping is king. This reduced skill matchmaking system shows that isn't the case at all. It's now 100% obvious that skill takes precedent over anything else when matchmaking.
-
I feel that Treyarch have shot themselves in the foot by adding this reduced SBMM (it's not gone completely) playlist. It's shown players just how strict the current system is so removing for launch will turn those players away from the game completely.
-
Treyarch added a classic matchmaking playlist where skill was only used minimally and it was absolutely fantastic. Getting into a game took a few seconds and it didn't feel like you were getting screwed by the matchmaking system if you did well, plus I was always in lobbies with a ping of around 9ms rather than it jumping between 9ms and 40ms. It was actually fun. It shows just how ridiculous SBMM is in this COD and how the system will prioritise skill over connection. Hopefully they'll use that system going forward but I doubt it. If they remove it then they're fucked IMO as they've shown players how the game could play if it wasn't for their SBMM system so those players just won't get the game.

I played a few games last night and I enjoyed it 🤷♂️ The maps so far are a major improvement over BO6. I quite like the extra movement we've got with the wall jumping.
-
A new Advanced Warfare sounds amazing to me. I'm now looking forward to playing the beta.
-
I watched a video from somebody at COD Next and they said the maps are really good this time around. They feel like actual MP maps rather than a bit of the Warzone map that's been turned into a MP map. That's good for me as the maps were my biggest gripe with BO6.
-
A breakdown video of the MP trailer + new details about MP. There are 16 maps at launch. 10 of them are medium sized. Thanks fuck they aren't all tiny again! My main gripe is the perk balance. The Perk 1 slot has all of the most useful perks and Perk 3 slot has perks that are pretty much useless.
-
You can't play for more than 30 minutes without the framerate taking a nosedive on consoles. The solution? Restart your game 🤣 There is absolutely no way in hell that Gearbox didn't know this was an issue before release. Unless they didn't play test their own game.
-
I've tried it because it's on GamePass. I just can't seem to get along with it, same as with the first game. MetroidVania is probably my favourite type of game as well.
-
That's utterly pathetic that other devs are complaining about this game 🙄
-
I've been playing through the campaign with a friend and it's still enjoyable. It does look very dated I agree. It should have been updated to at least UE4.
-
Digital Foundry did a good video on this. It is a lazy effort. It's basically GoW Ultimate with a couple of extra tweaks. It's still running on UE3 🙄 I've grabbed it because it's on Game Pass but there's no way I would have bought it.
-
If it plays anything like BO3 and AW then I'll be very happy as I really enjoyed both of those games. I always felt there was just something off with BO6. It didn't feel like a Treyarch game. So I'm fully convinced that BO6 was released just as a stop-gap until they could get BO7 out.
-
Just going from the trailer it looks to me like MP is more refined than BO6. It's like BO7 is the MP game that BO6 should have been 🤔 Obviously that may not be the case when the actual game launches. I saw somebody comment that it's just "AW 1.5" and I'm all for that. For me it all depends on the maps. They better not be all small again.
-
Well maybe they started getting silly a while ago but the skins in BO6 just took the piss completely.
-
God no! The skins started getting silly in MW3 but they took them to a whole new level of utter ridiculousness in BO6.
-
If that's real then COD is fucked. That's a complete Fortnite ripoff 🤣
-
I watched a video last night from XclusiveAce and he said that it seems like there's some server de-sync. So it feels like you die with one bullet but the enemy actually hit you with 5 bullets. This is one feature I wish they hadn't copied from COD 🤣 Hopefully they'll get it sorted the full game. Personally I really enjoyed the beta. Movement is great and didn't feel sluggish. I didn't like that mountain map with the rock in the middle that has 20 snipers on it every game 😡 I just hope all of the COD players that don't wait for revives just fuck off back to COD when BO7 comes out.
-
I suspect they've purposely chosen maps for the beta that are infantry focused because they're wanting to attract COD players to the game.
-
Very helpful video to sort out your controller settings.
-
So SBMM has been mentioned and all of the COD fans are absolutely losing their shit 🤣 The system that COD currently uses seems to have given COD players serious PTSD whenever SBMM is mentioned. They just assume that it will be the same shitty system that COD uses. In reality SBMM has been in BF for absolutely ages and it's only used to balance the teams.
-
I think it looks superb to be honest. I'll actually be buying it and I haven't bought a game at launch for a long time (I either get games on Game Pass, rent them or wait for a sale).
-
I'm hoping this is basically BF4 2.0. That is IMO the best BF to date. They're doing a big MP reveal event on July 31st and leaks suggest the beta will launch straight afterwards or the following weekend. The also accidentally gave away the release date which is October 10th.
