Suggestions for the upcoming Skill Based Matchmaking system

[modest citrus]

1. Do not make the SBMM system based on basement escapes. Basement escapes do not equal skilful play. Just because you escape as a kid does not mean you are good at the game. I have seen many players, including myself, escape without doing anything. If you base your system on basement escapes then this will happen:

Bad players who get lucky will get parachuted into high MMR = High Skill players will get bad teammates. Bad teammates = Not Getting into the basement = Getting lower MMR = Worse teammates = Not Getting into the basement... and you get into a vicious cycle which will eventually result in players getting stuck in elo hell

2. Do not award SBMM points based on the team's overall performance but instead individual performance . This will prevent players getting stuck in elo hell.

3. Kid and Neighbour roles should have 2 seperete SBMM categories. Just because you are a skilled kid/neighbour does not mean you are good at the other role. Also you get to play neighbour role less.

4. Factor in the length of the match for both roles when calculating their respective MMR points. If the neighbour wipes out the entire lobby in 2 minutes then that wasn't really a skilful play because the teams was exceptionally bad or afk. On the contrary, if the match took 15 minutes then the neighbour is either absolutely terrible at tracking in which case he should receive less points, or the kids were hiding in a closet the whole time which also isn't the most skilful play.

Good suggestions just to bad they'll never be used because you'll never be able to find a server when it comes out

one of my worst nightmares are default baggers getting high skilled level

Good ideas, but I have a better one, Don't make skill based match making at all.

[pulsar moth]

lobby filled with default baggers? teamers? toxic scouts? teammates that dont know how to save?

the tutorial dosnt do much

it dosnt teach you how to throw

[north whale]

Do you not understand just how horrible this could be on SN? The game is barely breathing as is, if they add SBMM it'll be unplugging the life support.

Not only that, it means that if you actually want to play the game the way that it was intended, you will have to try your best in every single match, and the gets old quick

you guys complainin' about skill based matchmaking but then also complain about noobs not saving you.

they just need to make it so that if the game finds nobody that is around the same level as you it will just pick random people.

simple

[distant olive]

doesn't it teach you how to throw in the brave tutorial...?

if you refuse to play the tutorial and then just walk around the map doing nothing but being clueless on what to do that's your problem honestly.

Wanna know something? I actually enjoy the game, unlike you and some of the fan base, I actually play for fun and I would rather have a bunch of noobs failing to save me than having to do insane stuff just to win

[distant olive]

wanna know something? i never complained about noobs. this was to the people who complain about noobs not saving them but are also complaining about sbmm.
