Quote from Chauncey29 >> I imagine a low percentage of MM players are even playing OD. Hence the higher likelihood of playing the same player repeatedly. For what it's worth, I do not play OD.
This. And fwiw, I do play OD, reached my 300,000 last weekend, and have been playing unranked since. I will note, I don’t actually like OD; I just play it.
Props to EA for good matchmaking. The problem is the ranking system needs to be more advanced. Wins vs losses, points scored vs defense allowed, rank vs rank, etc
I think the problem is the terrible ranking system and the massive fan losses for losing to people ranked way higher. If there was a fair one like they use in chess for example...

Thanks but you have to give 9erB any recent credit, as I quit and raffled my account away and he won it.

What else do we got?
Quote from corerial >> Quote from jawabomb >> It’s probably because a lot of the people outside the top 100 have switched to Unranked.
Yup ;)
Why would you play unranked? The patches reward is much lower

You are either looking for short wait timers and potentially unbalance match-ups or competitive play and longer wait timers. You are not going to get both, short timers and competitive play with the small population.
I consider competitive play as a match-up, where I have a 50/50 chance of winning and losing, where it will come down to the final play, not I win big on some game and lose big in other games.
its that time of season. Get your 300k and switch to unranked like mentioned before. Top 100 is a different bread and they play much more than the typical top 500 dude. It seems fair to me.

I don’t have to just play top 100 opponents because I’m in the top 100. It’s super boring playing the same person 8 times in a row. I realize not very many people play this game, but don’t make it super obvious by matching me up with the exact same person 8 times in a row. If I’m playing a bot please let me play different bots. Thank you.
