#Skill Based Matchmaking

matchmaking sucks. all the games are queued entirely based on RNG, and i grew tired of horrible queues.

for example, in 5vs5 CTF, the queues either give me a match full of bad players and i end up killing everyone, or i get a sweats party as opponent team and my teammates are braindead. it's never balanced, and unfunny for both sides

what i'm suggesting:

  • make the queues to be based on your performance
  • allow us to report for trolling, etc.

here are counterpoints for objections:

  1. the queues will be slower
    does it have to be that fast? it takes like, seconds to get a queue. not to mention the game literally sends me to servers in different regions without even telling me nor having an option to disable that for the sake of 'faster queues'. it even sometimes sends me to a nearly finished game that's located in entirely different region for no reason. no thanks, i wouldn't mind having slower queues if i could have proper games.

  2. alt accounts will ruin the queues
    to conclude, this is pointing to absolutely nothing. i do acknowledge that "alt accounts running low skill queues" is an issue for many games, but there's currently no system or anything in cubecraft that stops skilled players from joining matches full of bad players and immediately winning the game to begin with. hence why i'm making this suggestion at the first place

  3. cubecraft is casual and not competitive
    this doesn't mean it should have queues that's just entirely random. this is bedrock server we are talking about, and we all know that this platform in particular has so many ipad kids. it doesn't have to be ranked matched level of complexity, it just needs something to lessen the issue i've said above

you missed the point that there is a lack of good players

#

theres also no realistic way to go about doing this

This was discussed plenty of times, and every time most people were against it, including me. When i play i want to enjoy the game and not have to sweat for my life in every match. If i wanna do that, i would play scrims or the upcoming cubecraft tournament. To note, there already is a challenge queue option in the settings that tries to match you against harder players

challenge queue does that?

challenge queue doesnt do anything

i thought it was only for accepting duels and stuff

challenge queue basically makes it so mobile players can get in pc games except it doesnt work cuz mobile players get in pc games regardless of the setting

thats how skill based matchmaking works

#

you still can get bad teammates or extremely good opponent, but it should never be on cubecraft level

also 1v1s too, it wouldnt be entirely unfair

do it for only 1v1
