MW3 SBMM Rant - A Company Ran By Idiots?
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 11 сен 2024
- Here's my official review of MW3, and what I think of the Developers and Executive Staff at Activision. Move SBMM to Ranked and go back to a ping-based match making system, don't leak the source code to future updates to Ricochet, and things will be much better.
Former pro here... RIGGED GUNFIGHTS make recent cods a unplayable ILLUSION OF COMPETITION!!
Lag compensation is used to rig gunfights while it adds the infinite difficulty parameters to each player according to skill.
Aim resist, dmg nerf, hit registry, speed/animations, audio tracking... ALL OF ITS RIGGED while pulling the better player out of server time with those added difficulty parameters...
High influencers are WHITELISTED from the rigged engagements. Meanwhile, us pros are buying MICROTRANSACTIONS to have the rigged engagements less intense before high paying tourneys!!
Not about money, that only leads to puppets in power positions, not the PUPPET MASTERS who control every mega corporations under the sun.
Darker and more sinister then most are ready to comprehend sadly...
This comment right here.
Real chat.
I never buy bundles that's why I get dumped on.
In every COD I die by one bullet at my end, never even see red screen damage. Yet I have to plant at least 1 seconds worth of bullets into opponent to merc him.
@@PrAnG2000 You may be onto something there with the purchasing of bundles. I have also never bought a bundle and I get shat on 90% of the time. I can pick up a weapon from the ground from a dead player and it never performs like it literally just did in the other player’s hands.
@CasualResearch we have revel movements uniting more then ever...
This isn't just us against activision, this is farrr more sinister, and I hesitate saying too much.
What's your discord?
@PrAnG2000 yep, it goes deeper of course, much deeper.
What's your discord?
Sweaty matchmaking should be limited to ranked, thats why it exists. The fact that they try to incorporate it into MP casuals is a joke
Couldn't agree more. This would solve all my complaints, straight up.
Thats a great idea. keep it but move it over to ranked. that would prob solve alot of the probs by itself.
You think mw is sweaty? Try halo socials
Bet that gets crazy!
Imo ranked is less sweaty then pubs but maybe that’s cause I don’t get team m8s going 5-40 lol
Brother, I feel your pain. I'm an OG gamer as well. Been playing COD since the beginning. I've never seen such crazy SBMM and in-game manipulation. Thanks for the rant, I needed to hear it lol
Go woke, go broke. It's almost like some of these companies can't help themselves from devouring themselves. The good thing is that the community is extremely vocal right now, and moreso with MW3 than any game I can really remember.
We might just get what we want from a studio this time. I won't hold my breath though. Thanks for stopping by, amigo.
@@CasualResearch ESG score over everything, product of the biden administration. Diversity over skill will lead you down a path of incompetence.
I WANT TO SEE THESE DEVELOPERS PLAYING THIS GAME THEY NEVER PLAYED IT THEMSELF!!!!!!!!!!!
@@K.A-87the devs ain’t in charge of sbmm Activision is
@@snelly09yogaflame89they’re still the devs lol..
I once heard a COD dev say that SBMM was the future of gaming. I was already losing respect for COD over its horrible lag infested servers. Yes, the lag compensation they incorporate into COD is literally punishing me for having a better internet connection than little Johnny's connection. They pander to the young kids with crappy connections because they represent a group they hope to keep around for years to come. SBMM is the way they're doing it. I've been playing COD since COD3. And it's only gotten worse over time. Thanks for your spot on commentary. The truth needs to be known.
(EDIT): I noticed the scoreboard at 8:59 showing the players with the highest latency also seemed to have the higher number of kills. Coincidence? I think not.
Thanks for stopping by and take the time to comment. You landed some indepth haymakers there that the community is now better off for knowing. Much appreciated, OG.
If everyone stopped buying COD every year… Activision would get it and possibly change their scummy practices… but as long as people keep shoveling money at them, they will never stop… ever, just STOP BUYING COD… literally that simple.
Then i wouldn't be able to complain like a little b*tch about buying it...haha. Good point.
Thats like quiting heroin.
Exactly..it's funny how people love to complain about the game but they still buy it year after year🥴
Cod needs competition for this to happen. I was really relying on xDefiant this year, but we're still waiting, so I bought cod... again. The only arcade shooter on the market that is like cod, is cod. The formula is just great for games, but no one else does it or no one does it like cod. It really fucking sucks.
There are games in the works, that will be far better than COD… one of them is called “Project Wraith”… also “Delta Force”… these two games will be better than COD, when you are not having fun playing COD, what is the point, you have content creators non stop releasing videos about how bad the sbmm/eomm is in COD, it never ends, why would anyone want to play this game? I mean… you can have more fun playing Battlefield 2042 than COD.
But I would like to direct everyone’s attention to something not many people living in COD land realize, and that is Virtual Reality, it is really starting to take off, and there is a game in VR called “Contractor’s VR” that is COD in VR… it even has a black ops mod that has COD maps in it… and is a better experience than any COD game you have ever played… look into it, and spread the word, VR will make you forget about COD, and everyone can stop playing it, and giving them money, and really hurt activision where it counts… their pockets.
Some solid points made. you took the words right outta my mouth with alot of this stuff. If they change back to basing everything on ping i think it will be a good thing for everyone.
Thanks for stopping by. Yep, a ping based system would be a refreshing restart to how the game feels. Hopefully they'll come to their senses at some point. The community seems to be hammering them hard enough this time that they can't do anything other than make the changes we want. I guess time will tell.
Has anyone else noticed after doing well your controller seems to have a “mind if it’s own”? It aims you in directions you aren’t trying, almost feels like your ice skating and can’t keep steady? I think they are nerfing you mid Match when you begin to do well
It's called aim resistance. Look it up. Happens often enough for me to notice it. Gun won't aim for shit. It's like fighting your controller .
@@SPI-fr3tgyea i think they messing with mouse sensitivity as well.
Aim resistance is a real thing. Happens all the time.
That’s crazy! I had no idea it was a thing I thought maybe it was just me
Is it done on purpose as a means of trying to nerf you or punish you for doing well?
It makes me feel better hearing/seeing others this frustrated with SBMM. I miss the BO2 days when you were in a random lobby and sometimes had good players, sometimes bad. It was SO much more fun than these non-stop sweaty lobbies. I hate Activision for not listening to us.
Wait a fucking minute here. Are you serious about that lag compensation thing?! No wonder I was dying so much in MW2 I thought these dudes were all cheating and using wall hacks, but no the game neuters me because I have gigabit internet and these clowns have dial up from 97?! The fuck! That's one of the cheapest things I've ever heard of in my life.
100% telling you the truth about that.
You want lag compensation. A lot of games have it. However, it's been very tuned or done poorly in MW3.
When you shoot, your position on the map, button inputs, etc are sent from your PC to the cod server. This is called a "packet."
The COD server also looks at the packets from the enemy player and sees how much you hit and how much they hit you.
The server then sends packets back to both players which applies damage to the players.
Lag compensation is supposed to adjust timing and position to match up with when the players pressed the buttons in real life (who acted first).
That's why kill cams are often different than what you see. You fire a mag, but the other player only got hit twice before they mag dumped you.
The shitty part is when you get the warning symbol on your game for "packet loss," which means the server is missing your button inputs and screwing you over.
I wanted to thank everyone for coming by and watching the video. I appreciate all the love. There's more content coming!
We appreciate you brudda!
I’ll almost bet u anything that your lag stutter is caused by your “vram scale target”. Put that shit on 50-60 instead of 80 and it’ll go away.
Then you can focus all your attention on how torturous the sbmm is.
Thank me and cuss me later👍🏾also definitely keep “on demand texture streaming” off
You’re right the game sucks if you get a chance watch FPS boomers channel he did like 150 game research on how Activision manipulate you it’s pretty good
@@skwirl865 Thanks for the suggestion. I'll give it a try.
@@CasualResearch definitely try it. I had the same problems with my 3080ti and 7800x3d, my nephew, same with 10900k and 7800xtx, son with 6900xt and 5600x and other son with 2080 super and 5900x. Dropping from 80 killed all stutters. The only thing we ever get is packet loss when servers are bad
SBMM is only something the higher ups wants in the game. They want the player statistics to be the same for all players, it benefits them greatly if everyone has the ideal 1.0 K/D and 50% Win rate. You are more likely to both keep playing the game, and spend money in the store if you are performing "good". This of course is not a good decition gameplay wise, especially with how agressive the SBMM is in recent call of duties. You can go from having a game where you go 20 - 5, and the very next game you go 2 - 23 because the SBMM overcompensates. Ex-Devs for activision titles has made it clear that the decition to keep SBMM both in the games and have it as agressive as it is are completely up to the higher ups at the company.
Preach!
I remember getting destroyed in the OG MW2, it was my first online game. But that never stopped me from playing, it did the opposite and made me want to get better. Losing now is soul draining and rage inducing because the crap they added.
You hit the nail on the head. It's the soul reason why I no longer believe using a VPN is considered cheating. It's actually a necessity, imo, and the reason I will continue to use one. It removes a lot of their backend BS, and allows chance and opportunity to line me up in a lobby with actually good ping so i can stand a chance in most matches.
Right, but what's the point in getting better in this game you just get punished HEAVILY for it. My highest average KD was 3.8 in bo3 with over 200k kills, this game I'm stuck at 1 lmao. GGs
wow...from a 3.8 to a 1.0...if that doesn't make your brain hurt reading that, I don't know what will.
been playing since i was 9 or 10. cod4. ever single cod i bought i put well over 20 days played. im 24 now. Im extremely competitive I mean Like RUclips researching practicing studying pros you get it. well above 2.5 kd in all of them. mw 2019 2.5 coldl war 2.5. took a long break to play apex had a 3kd in that. Hoped on mw22 late but I started noticing I was fucking getting destroyed and it wasnt like this guy is just better, no it was striaght dicked on by noobs man. so fucking frustrating stuck at a 1.1 kd. even though I literally wasted good parts of my child hood getting good made no sense. My homies would tell me i was tripping way to much and complaining after every death. yelling yooo that aint real. I knew what this guy was going to do. and some how I still lost that gun fight Wtf. so i uninstalled I kept complaining over and over this shit is rigged all my guns fights are not fucking real. Now all of a sudden in mw3 there are countless videos on it. Fuck feels good to realise i wasn't going nuts lol. Btw my battle net account is linked to my PlayStation account that literally tracks all the way back to my 2.1Kd in Ghost. call me crazy but I literally thing I was nerfed extra Hard. like my whole account been it with a bug that causes damage reduction, terrible latency you name it lmao @@CasualResearch
The “lag compensation” happens in any game where if you shot someone on your end while having bad internet the game will allow the bullet to kill since they shot them on their screen. On the victim’s screen they were not at that position anymore but since the server picked up “i hit x player” it allows the hit to register anyways. Many many games do this so people don’t complain about hit registration. Source: im a software engineer for an anticheat. And i made mods to exploit this function in less competitive games like minecraft.
bro......develop an app for console that we can download so that we can pick up cheaters before a game starts😁
ill take 10 percent of your 1st billion lol
I miss the old cod games. Sbmm is the reason why I quit playing Cod games .
You and me both!
So many people complaining about the game, I've been playing the game just fine and no leg. It's just PC gamer that leg, I'm on a console, no leg. And it's OK to be bad at call of duty.
I don't think it's about just being bad at the game. I'm not good at the game. It's just that its a rigged system. And we're all tired of it.
This video is spot on. I deleted the game because I’m not trying to go pro in COD. I just want to play a regular match with people on my skill level. It’s not even fun at this point.
I just field tested a vpn called sbmmoff...it's actually legit. I posted a video about my results after using it for 10 games. It's definitely something I'm going to use going forward, so I can get more casual gameplay. but i understand EXACTLY what you're saying, and what you're feeling brother man.
I feel your pain brother everything about this game is rigged. I don't even watch the kill cams anymore they are just going to be disappointing.
No kidding! hahaha. The kill cams will totally kill the vibe!
bro im 2009 pc player and feels crazy how ugly and 99% the same over n over killcamp is ...aim assist every where .. just got bored to die to some computable mechanic ... no one got honoured to kill me with style...im fast as fac boy still dies to the fakin lagy robotic aim lock ..me and my dudes are gettin frustrated too easily ...nothing chill about cod any more , where is the no scope across the map quad feed i used to record ...360 aim scope regular (not acog ) headshot ................
Good video man. Im about to make my own rant video, because more and more people are coming about against SBMM. The more voices against this, the better.
The more the BETTER!
I low-key have to mentally prepare myself for an Olympic sized event when I fire up this game.
I came back to this comment, and chuckled a little bit again. True...but still funny the way you put it.
what? you're walking into a casino bud, this isnt the olympics
Yeah that lag compensation is absolute bs. I get real tired of being shot by people who are standing in front of me but I can't see them until the replay or in the case of playing hardcore, it shows them for a split second standing in full view in front of you after you die.
It's one of the wildest things i've ever seen injected into a game. And once you know the things I shared in the video, it's borderline enraging because you can't not see several examples of everything per game.
Stop playing their games, vote with your wallet
no point, millions of people buy this no matter what
Sadly, very true. But a lot less people bought this one than bought MW2. And MW3 is 30% off online, so they're not only feeling the burn...they're seeing it in real time.
Man, I feel your pain. My K/DR is about .92, and when I played on rust to raise it to 1.00, as soon as I got to .98, I was being put in matches with people far, far more skilled than I am at the game. SBMM is something no one asked for but everyone got. I don't think that the CoD devs are in touch with their fanbase at all when it comes to this matter. the lack of awareness on their end is pathetic, and people have been asking for SBMM to be nerfed or completely removed from the game for the past couple of years but Activision absolutely refuses to remove it. I think another thing I really dislike about MWIII is the ridiculously high health, but from what it seems, other RUclipsrs wanted that, which makes zero sense. So for me the only viable way of enjoying this game is hardcore mode.
Battlefield 1 used to have this "mechanic" , i don't how to put it, but if you kill someone first and the server KNOWS that, his bullets gets deleted from the server and they never reach you. But after that they've added it permanently. So ppl with high ping stand a chance. But this resulted in some weired deaths behind walls and trades...So i feel your pain man .
Dude I feel your pain. I’ve got a .9 KD and I constantly get melted and finish last in the lobby. I too am putting multiple rounds into the “upper thoracic cavity” and lose every time. MKG sweats every game and I can only play an hour or two a day. Made a new account to see the difference and what a fricken difference in gameplay.
I was recently contacted by a company that has a vpn service. I did a video on it, and uploaded it with my results. I'll never play another match without that sucker running. There's apparently several good ones out there, and it might be worth it for you to check into one of them and go that route. The results I got were a lot better than I expected.
The movement feels good until you get stuck in a window, which idk about you but happens to me way to much, and I mean if your running and gunning and jump through a window and get a lil stuck up that’s one thing but I will literally stand still vault out a window and get stuck in it, like when a dog tries walking through a doorway with a stick to big
That happens to me every once in a while, so i feel your pain.
I feel you on this one. The moment you hop on this game, it's either you start off really good or really bad. Regardless of how you perform, the algorithm will always turn its head around and find ways to screw you over. I couldn't count on one hand how many times I've lost gunfights that I should've won.
There's no sense of real reward for even sweating hard in a match. There's no such thing as getting better anymore.
So many times I found and hit the enemy first but lose the gunfight. Or shooting at a moving target but missed the first several shots and they turned around and instantly kill me.
@@future_su2614 or the fact that when you're shooting at someone directly and you still don't get hit markers and they turn around and kill you like nothing happened😭
We can all agree mw19 should have just had dlc and kept the same graphics and all
The worst one is that stupid AI voice ban moderator, i just bought MW3 and got banned from voice chat without knowing what i said, they banned me in a hardcore military M rated F bombing game that i payed $70-$80 plus internet plus PSN and they got the nerve to still restrict me like this, what a fck'n joke!
Couldn't agree more. "Everything woke, turns to shit." #Trump2024
I use throwing stars as lethal which is 1 hit kill when I start playing and after 1-2 good runs it becomes a 2 hit kill, so basically they nerf it on the fly. Engagement optimized matchmaking is how they call this. Possible to combat against this by not shooting enemy players and letting them kill you. In the next match, you will be in an easier lobby.
The crazy thing is, that people actually have to forcibly do bad in one game, to get a chance to actually play normally in the next. Activision is pathetic.
Your literally right on. aim assist very strong laggy servers hit reg feels off mouse and keyboard feels little delayed just feels like it’s made for controller player and consoles and skill base match making is horrible there should be a button for skill match making or something because sometimes I like tryhard lobby’s and sometimes I want chill lobby but yes we all feel your pain
This whole game is hardcore Dirka. But, it's all I got right now.
$100 beta test where people are afraid to talk
you got scammed if you bought it, and you got scammed if you bought skins in MW2
This is the only gamer channel worth a shit. I laughed the while time.
Thanks for saying that!
Facts laughing soo hard.HAHAHHAA
Us old COD players gave up on COD years ago. SBMM ruined what was once a fun game. I loved some ladder play but it's gone now. Where is the prestige mode?? lobbies break as well. No more rivalries, no more trash talk, nothing. COD is nothing more than a name anymore.
That thing you said about lag compensation blew my mind. I didn’t know that was a thing. Wow. I thought it was just high fps that allows them to see you first before you can see the enemy
Definitely lag compensation. Check out some of your kill cams when you actually get into a game that's not crippling you with fake ping. It's rampant.
@@CasualResearch I always noticed it but never thought it was an intentional construct added to the game to set good players at a disadvantage in a terrible attempt to “even the playing field.” Thanks for saying what we are all thinking I hope these vids come across a cod developer and they actually consider removing sbmm. Idk how people find it fun anymore
You didn't know about it because it's not a thing. He has no idea what he is talking about. He sounds like he has never studied this topic at all, and does not understand how online gaming works. This is not intentional and what he is experiencing happens to literally every player in the game. And in every other FPS game as well. Don't be fooled by anger unskilled gamers like this. SBMM is very annoying but he is wrong about "lag compensation".
@@CasualResearch It's not fake ping and all kill cams look like this in all games. You just need to get better. If other people can do it, you have the same equal opportunity as they do. Also your huge FPS drops never occur for me. You need to learn to optimize your PC or something.
I started playing old games. Oblivion, age of empires 2, etc. I've gone full circle now back to single player games.
It won't surprise me if there's a massive shift in the communities play styles because of all the psychological BS injected into games like we experience today.
I 100% agree man. Once i hit a 1.00 k/d, i started playing against Optic in EVERY match. I got a .094 k/d now. SBMM needs to go!!
Download the Zlaner wall hacks and Aimbot, and let us know what you think of them.
Another issue I run into alot. Is throwing a smoke grenade for cover getting killed through it watching the kill cam and seeing the smoke non existent on their screen. Like wtf?
Its not just a bad internet connection, lag comp happens real time between pc and console players. I recently bought a Duma router and I must say its nice to be matched with ping as the priority again.
Not a bad investment. The only problem is that people have to spend more money on things like a DUMA router to enjoy a game they already paid big bucks for. Thanks for stopping by, Mike.
It's crazy cause I saw mw3 for 50 or 60 bucks on black Friday which is something I've ever seen a cod do 2 weeks after launch
They're down 25% compared to MW2 at the same time after release. It's not good. So, there's obviously a problem.
This has been the first CoD I haven't bought in a long long time out of principle. All the boys keep trying to get me to buy it and I won't fold. This is how MW2 (besides the sbmm issues) should of played and I find it disrespectful to the players that they make you pay $70+ to give the people what they were asking for in MW2. I don't reward companies who disrespect their customers... that's how you end up with shitty products like what we have today. STOP BUYING THE GAMES IF THEY'RE BAD. STOP BUYING SKINS AND BATTLE PASSES IF THE COMPANY IS NOT RESPECTING YOU.
I said fk it I'll just play free to play and use my mw2 guns in WZ until they show us they deserve the money.
100%
There’s times where I’ve lagged and it’ll pop up my loadouts mid gunfights
something about thanksgiving dinner made me want to buy mw3 and try it out. i played a little over an hour i was done with it.. 80 percent of the weapons i already maxed out on mw2.. my first game playing dom favela, i spawn at the bottom.. solo cap our flag.. walk out and get gunned down.. then i spawn BEHIND their flag as the enemy team was dogging it out at b. i capped their flag so we had both end flags with b yet to be establshed. bro i have never seen that in my life.. on domination of all game types!! I played a few more matches but was thoroughly unimpressed. i just refunded the game and might pick it up if its at a 30$ price tag in the future. this game should be illegal to sell at 70$ what a stupid decision. i get the cod bug from october till end of december then i dont touch it all year. i am not paying 70 dollars for a dlc that should have been included in the previous game.. thats the reason i bought mw2 in the first place!! they lied to us.
They sure did lie to us. I have no doubt in my mind that Activision is taking notice of the total active player count, and that's the reason Sledgehammer Games fielded a Q&A on Reddit.
OG Gamer here ... (50 years old!)
And here it doesn´t stop!! Once you have a few "good" rounds, the game simply decides that your bullets no longer do as much damage as before. that's ridiculous!
And that is true! I can proofe it! 🤮🤮🤮
It's rampant. That's why i'll never play another match without my vpn running. It completely changed the way the matches lineup for me. Of course there's still chance and odds that I'll get into a game with ultra skilled players that own the shit out of me, but at least i'm not stuck in match with 300ms ping get face stomped by dudes that ride the short bus M-F.
Ima say this like i told one the big content creators i used my old account that i havent played cod on since bo3 and there so much of a better difference easyer lobbies my ping actually sits around 19 to 25 for game after game and that account i just play like im a noob. No packet Burst no lag gunfights feel perfect. Switch to my main account that i have to sweat on second match in packet Burst ping jumping from 40 to 100 sometimes even the high 200s when i really start pooping on people mid match ping just explodes im laggy. Ya we all know but wont ever be fix unless the whole or 75% of the community actually stops playing cod dont buy the bundles all that for a few months if not year. This game isnt ment for the hardcore fans anymore they found a way to line there pockets with our cash and dont care about us at all.
I'm gonna keep talking about it, myself. Thanks for the insight!
@@CasualResearch keep that up but it been 4 years of telling them to stop SbMM it won't but hey keep it up man maybe one day everyone will understand this shouldn't be in the game and if it does these servers need a massive upgrade so people don't suffer this stupid packet Burst or lag or rigged gun fight.
bro the sequence at 2:29 lmao, I felt that so hard. This game lags me out like that too after i get a killstreak of 3-7 kills, then i die and the lag goes away until i get another 3-7 killstreak and it comes back.
it's a sad state of affairs for online games right now. I started using a vpn, and things started changing back in my favor by quite a bit. I'm going to continue using it.
@@CasualResearch which vpn did you get? I was thinking about getting one anyway but if it will improve things on the game all the better lol.
Just now seeing this. I was given a trial account for sbmmoff, and tried that before making a video about it. Wanted to make sure it was legit prior to making a video, and putting it out there. It's legit.
Here's a link to the video I made. There's others out there that some are also having success with, but I don't have any experience other ones: ruclips.net/video/ZoCp3g_igpI/видео.html
This man and every SBMM video about cod is so true im at low ping but i search for a match they ping me with 100 ms everytime i just got off the game lol
It should be Ping Based, non KD gameplay.
Like it used to be, cause that JUST FKN WORKED.
100000% IT WORKED!
There's a lot more than just the things you mentioned going on behind the curtain I'm sure. It all comes down to money per minute. How much they're making every minute, literally. The game can still be enjoyable, but sometimes the experience is just trash. I think that's why we'll still see high numbers playing DMZ and Warzone.
I can agree with this. I'm just blowing off steam mostly. I think most players are pretty frustrated with things atm, but I do still have some fun at times.
I agree with the complaints, but I would argue that the game developers aren’t to blame for a lot of the decisions- Activision has turned it into a service, so getting players to buy the game each year and spend money on cosmetics is more important than player experience. It’s not incompetency, it’s greed.
Overall I agree with you and the points made. As a player who is always pretty good, I also understand why, someone who kinda sucks or doesn’t have the time to get good would be frustrated. On the other hand I do understand why sbmm exists especially in cod. Even In sbmm lobbies im usually top of the leaderboard in most cases. I can’t imagine how the poor souls and timmies would feel after I ripped around a corner at Mach 10 and beamed them in the face. It would be unfair and so I don’t mind playing against better players. The network shenanigans are also annoying but I have to be honest I don’t care enough to complain. For me cod has turned into the gaming version of a stressball. I kinda just jump in, frag out, get some decent clips and then leave. I couldn’t give a shit if I win an objective or the game I just kinda shoot people really well and then hop off. The reality is cod won’t be changing, even at the lowest points the franchise still prints money. The formula works year after year. So either you don’t buy the game, or you do and just change your mindset so you aren’t irked as much. I’ve found that not caring about anything in the game other then shooting people in the face and getting Some cool gun skins unlocked works really well for me. I also play with friends and mess around in private lobbies which is so much fun. Zombies with the boys is also a blast so I’ve honestly felt like I got a decent amount out of the game. That being said, yes I understand the frustration. Who would be retarded enough to make these systems? Probably the people making millions every year no matter what happens, that’s who.
If they make some small changes, it'll reignite the desire for many players to play again. I'm going to continue playing, and see how things go.
I think they may not even be able to turn it off now or maybe that’s what they’re worried about. What I mean by that is they have bred the higher skilled players to be better,worse players don’t ever get better, and the middle just stays the same. The middle never needs to get better they are average and the low players never bad players never even fight the average or just above.
Get good?? Their algorithm in mw3 doesn’t even make u feel like you’re progressing!!! Hell MW2 algorithm wasn’t this damn strong and it actually felt like you were getting better
@TheDC-ks3tw there already in the works of testing without parts if it in thr experimental playlist, so play it if you want it removed, show you care.
@TJ-100 that kinda means sbmm is doing its job better, keeping you against people your skill level. If you feel like your in a constant fight against sweats that kinda means you play like a sweat?
“4 shots to the upper thoracic” LMAOOO
Sometimes you have to get technical. haha.
I can definitely agree with you about the guns and the gunplay, it feels so good but the old guns are more fun to use and the gunplay makes no sense. You get the first shot off and the other guy wins shooting at your knee caps with an MCW or knifes you after being shot 10 times in the chest. Happens to me all the time. Didn’t happen to me in MW2 though always had fair gunfights.
Welcome to Shit Show 3.
Cap it didn’t happen in mw2 that shit was so bad for hit reg actual worst cod since AW.
The thing that really pissed me off is that they deleted mw2 from our files! For the purpose to force us to buy their crap(mw3) . I CANNOT DOWNLOAD IT BACK, NO MATTER WHAT! THIS COMPANY SHOULD BE SUED
Yep. It's 100% fuck all.
Same thing happens to me I hope Microsoft does something about it. I have packet burst as well bc of the sbmm and now they have engagement based match making to go with the sbmm cranked all the way it can go. I want to play the game but the sbmm and ebmm makes it where I don't play as long sweat fest makes me want to get vpn to help turn off sbmm it should be ping based like you said like back in the day. Sometimes you will sweat then have great games and so on but it's random not I'm playing for a million dollar tournament and have nothing but sweat in my hands at the end 😂 I feel your pain
It's so crazy how up and down the matches are. It's nuts.
As someone who has played COD for years and used to be a sweaty try hard, I am now a casual player who is average at the game now. I have never had to sweat so much in my life in a COD before. I play a lot of FPS games and I usually play ranked, but COD pubs feel like ranked. It's like rank players who don't play objective, but instead sweat their balls off for kills. The game is just demoralizing. I know the outcome of my game before it even begins and SBMM has completely destroyed the social aspect of the game on top of that. I just don't get how SBMM helps anyone. If you suck then you still are going to have to play people on your skill level so either way even if you got a .3 kd you're still gonna have to sweat.
"The game is just demoralizing." - That hits pretty hard right there. And there's no reason for a game this old, with that many dedicated players to have an overall experience like this. Period.
Im with you, brother. I am 40 years old and have played COD from the original. I can hold my own yet this release is on another level with SBMM. Im struggling to maintain a 1.42 KD.
Not to mention I stated leveling up the Markmen rifles first which was painful. Since moving to the ARs it has been a little better. It is still a sweat fest all the time though.
It won't change though. Enough people play it for Activision to still make money. They obviously do it for a reason. Dollars talk. If it didnt result in more money for them, they wouldn't have it.
You're spittin' fax like it's 1982. Thanks for stopping by. 100%
I WANT TO SEE THESE DEVELOPERS PLAYING THIS GAME THEY NEVER PLAYED IT THEMSELF!!!!!!!!!!!
@@K.A-87 they need sbmm cuz they got 0.3 kds thats why you never see them. they are protected by a system they help create.
Also Modern SBMM Is actually a joke because of how strict developers make it. It needs more variability to go up against any kind of player and thats what makes it fun. When they squeeze for perfect matches nobody gets to have fun in a multiplayer game where everyone is on par with each other.
Your new hell has arrived.
Adapt or die meaning get a scuff controller, learn how to slide cancel, jump shot, have a knife as a secondary for panic kills, throwing knives to beat the annoying lag compensation or never beat the SBMM beneficiary rats at their own game. Learn to live with 30 kills and 28 deaths because once you max level you will never see another bot lobby again till a new game comes out. Oh and those stats follow you to warzone too. Good luck!
It's a big club...and we aint in it.
I have a better idea, don’t buy this game
@@spectre3492 ok don’t buy the game but still watch content based on the game…
@@BrooklynUSA and? I can watch it burn
i use runing shoes and settings always sprint with one press on controler, guns got rid of heavy stuf like no stock and light barrels, i don't care of recoil use burst guns and get over thier backs fast, use riot shield on your back and fly fast, smoke granade to get out of the place, yes you must be light as hell and slide to get enemy by surprise. ranked all my guns and every gun i got rid of stock and turned it the lightest i could i did fine and job is done. it's hard time yes it is. this game is not like we used before, go fast or you die fast. fly or die
Sbmm has also some good things. Think of the old CoD days, when 7 of 10 rounds ended spawn trapped. It is possible to shine, but yes it is sweaty. The problem these days I see is, that many players don’t play the objective anymore.
Totally get what you're saying, but what we have today is a scam.
right there with ya bro! I'm not an insane player by any means, been playing cod since 07, I only have a .98 kd😂 and get put in the sweatiest lobbies all day any time of day, its crazy😂 never used to be like this
Dude, tell me about it. I played some matches in Rust today, and just rushed in after every death like a speed addict and it was the usual cluster F. My KPM went up though. But so did my blood pressure. haha.
@@CasualResearch oh man🤣🙏 it's a mess dude, and you're absolutely right! A game we paid 70$ for especially online should not have manipulative algorithms, remember when connection used to be prioritized? 🤣🤏👏
Ahhh yes. The good ole days!
Just got refunded with over 20 hours. Think steam are finally putting their foot down to these idiots
NIIIIIICE.
Dude, you echoed my exact experience 1000%, you might of well as been inside my head. You had me crying laughing at the end. The game makes you want to bite a bullet, I swear. It also uses spawns to manipulate the outcome. Spawn people in opportune spots, or right behind you. And bunny hopping & drop shotting is pay-to-win, not a skiĺl gap, on controller, just saying. Can't aim AND jump at the same time, with ONE thumb, sorry. You need a 250$ controller to exploit the game, losers, truly.
You and me might need to join some ZLaner training courses or something...NOT!
Claw grip
I actually just found out about this, and it's pretty wild that someone came up with it. Apparently its used a lot more than I was ever aware of. I might give this a shot when I swap back and forth from controller. I suck so bad anyways, it won't make much of a difference. haha.
@@CasualResearch claw won’t make much of a difference itself but controller and claw will. I was keyboard and mouse and I aim trained on kovaaks for Fortnite years ago. When I played cod mw2019 I was kbm god. Fast forward to mw3 and now I’m absolute trash at it and I can’t figure out why. The ttk and movement is too much to account for. I switched to controller and just played claw and the first day i was already dropping 20 bombs in snd. It’s insane how much controller is an advantage in this cod. I’ve already got my kd back up to a 1.10 and I’ll probably have a 1.7 by the time I quit this game. But I play only search . No randomized spawns and people camping in their spawn. Respawn modes are terrible with this sbmm. If I ever play respawn it’s FFA because I can predict the spawns at least. I steer clear of any other game mode except maybe a little bit of domination. Because the spawns are a little bit predictable. Even then your teammates are viable to flip them at any time. This was my way of adapting. Just don’t play kbm unless you have god aim
OMG you made me laugh so hard with this well justified Rant!!🤣 Voice sounding like the chubby guy on the Tom Hanks movie "The Burbs", right? Lmao!😅
hahahaha
maybe im the only one but movement and gameplay i see alot of improvements with mw3.
But i agree that the all Systems around the game, gun Unlocks, SBBM is really bad
I agree. There some definite plus sides to MW3. I like how it feels overall. Those are the things that all of us can see, and understand. Its the things going on behind the scenes that are working against us that just ruin the overall experience. And that's really unfortunate. Thanks for making some solid points. It adds some depth to the convo.
The movement feels good until you get stuck in a window, which idk about you but happens to me way to much, and I mean if your running and gunning and jump through a window and get a lil stuck up that’s one thing but I will literally stand still vault out a window and get stuck in it, like when a dog tries walking through a doorway with a stick to big
Movement is straight from original warzone 1.
I literally just got in from an 8 hour shift, booted this game up and got 5 deaths within about a minute. Turned it straight off. I can’t be bothered anymore.
Man, such a sucky experience bro. What sucks the most about this entire comment section, is that you ARE NOT ALONE. I've read a lot of comments just like yours. I'm not saying VPN's get you into bot lobbies, but it might be something you look at using at some point. There's several out there, and there's a lot of content covering how they're used, and the results people get with them.
Cod mobile is the best original game play. This version feels like you no control of your outcome in gameplay. Feels like a 50/50 coin toss each game you play. I'm going to get a refund from steam.
I'd love to know the tally on refunds to this point since MW3's release.
wait until you hear about rotational aim assist for controller players.
I'll look into this. Thanks for stopping by.
Money Talks. The only thing they care about is their stock price. The only way it will be removed is by boycotting the game a few days until SBMM is removed.
Start playing counterstrike
Not a bad idea at all. I'm gonna check out quite a few different options. MW3 is a dumpster.
Play Beat em ups
So fun!
Tmnt shedders revenge
River city girls
Listen to this dude
Talking shit about disabled people
Waw! You got some fate n karma waiting for you.
Every game now its people camping with snipers, its a rarity to get people who actually play the game. I stopped instantly when i got a hit marker headshot with a shotgun with slug rounds
“I just wanna chill whenever I play a game” man we didn’t know how good we had it bacc in the day 😪 dam gaming got me in a depression these days cuz I feel like a bot when I used to be really good. But maybe I jus need to come to terms with the fact I’m washed 😪 games ain the same no more man
Dang...your comment kinda hits hard, actually. One things certain, you're definitely not washed. So knock all that stuff off. It's just that's it's rigged against you. It's rigged against any of the old school players, really. I've been using a vpn for the past couple of weeks when i'm not playing with friends back in the States. It's the only thing that keeps me from tearing my hair out at this point. I've also stopped caring about K/D, and started focusing more on just making relatable content. We're all in the same boat it seems. I'll just have as much fun as I can with the games we have, and if we all do that, we'll be a lot better off perhaps. Thanks for taking the time to comment, Sosa.
@@CasualResearch 🫶🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
People aren’t talking about one thing? How much MONEY is this making them? and is an alternative possible to be designed?
Surely the answer is to not go back to 2009 standards; but to ask, can we do it better?
Yep, they know exactly what they're doing. And it's deceitful as hell.
The only reason I bought mw 2 was for the 2 year lifecycle that they've lied about, the moment they've advertised mw3 I have stopped playing it and will never touch a cod game until they come back to their senses - no disrespect my man but you can rant as much as you want - they've already got your money
Actually, I can't argue with what you've said. It's true...they have my money, and there's nothing I can really do about it other than hopefully provide a little bit of a voice for all of us. Thanks for taking the time to comment. I appreciate it!
*Bro I haven’t bought cod since bo3 right before the crazy SBMM and EOMM took over. I use to be super competitive and it got to the point where it was affecting how I was treating my friends mid match. Overall cod was just stressful for me being as competitive as I am. I was a die hard cod fan. Went to all midnight released…. But I put it down and walked away. I couldn’t imagine how stressful it be now with everything in this game trying to keep you at a 1KD wether that be rigging your aim and damage and sound and aim assist on the fly. I couldn’t even imagine putting up with this shit now. Cods dead it’s time to move on man. This mediocre trash is no longer worth your time and money. They don’t care about you. They did this to their player base because it makes more $ in the long run. There are other games out there. Subbed keep up the good work homie. Trust me you can put cod down too. It will suck at first but in the long run you’ll be happier and have more fun gaming. Rock on.*
Thanks for taking the time to comment. It's always interesting to me to read a little about other player experiences, and what they did as a result of it.
go play Black Ops 4 now... its a complete SWEAT fest.
@@jortepap no thanks I’m good I’ll never play cod again. Other than the classics sometimes
@@rezcellent
true. all I'm saying is that people act like the horrible SBMM started with MW 2019.. not true. Black Ops 4 is soo sweaty now. Unplayable.
They have got to add a playlist that is solely connection based and let the people choose what they want, if ol bud wants to play skill based matchmaking, ol bud can have it, but it shouldn’t be forced like the way it is. It should honestly be only for ranked playlists, as that’s the whole purpose of ranked. I don’t want a game of quick play or whatever to feel like a game of ranked every time, if I wanted that, I would play ranked
Well said, Pay. I couldn't have said it better myself. Then again, Activision doesn't want you to have a choice. They want you to have no choice but to spend money on their BS game.
all these people complaining.... you bought the game knowing mw and mw2 and warzone had issues that were never fix and in some cases introduced....Also you bought the game knowing who the company is behind the game.....
The health needs to be 100. Having 150 health with SBMM and terrible hit reg makes the game unplayable
It's so atrocious sometimes that playing becomes completely unbearable.
I didn't buy it this year until they take SBMM out of call of duty. I will never purchase another game and I stand on my Word!!
Strict SBMM/EOMm is about player retention and store sales.The majority of players are casuals so they will protect them to make more profits.We are the few,the sacrificed.
I bet if enough of us got together, this could be class action. This sucks that bad!
I would love for this comment to get a million likes.
I’ve played 2 games of multiplayer and then permanently went to zombies.
I'm shocked they haven't completely grenaded zombies too at this point.
When u said I shot him 2 times in the upper thoracic cavity I hit the subscribe button
My man!
The thing I hate the most is that ever seen MW2019 and every other COD to now, I lag a lot. I lag when I move, I lag and teleport all over the map when I don’t move, plus I have great internet WI-FI 6. No other games does this just COD. Any other COD before MW2019 SBMM didn’t lag like this.
It's def lag city!
Man, some may say that you went a bit over the top with the ranting but I understand you so well as you described my experience to a tee. Thank you for letting me know that I am not the only one having this experience as I was going crazy. To be honest, I am totally against SBMM but the lag comp annoys me more than SBMM. I can handle playing against sweats but being at a disadvantage all the time is rage inducing. According to your explanation of lag comp, I think I might have the best internet connection in the world as everyone sees me first, in gunfights and around corners, and I am not even exaggerating, it's crazy. I have a 4.1 K/d in warzone with a 20% win rate, but in this game I feel like a total bot lol. I am hitting that subscribe button.
Much love. And i can understand the "some may say that i went a bit over the top" part. It's come to that for me.
@@CasualResearchGetting manipulated deserves that kind of talk. I respect every word you said about them because thats what they are
It’s crazy man. I just want to enjoy the game. I don’t have the time or energy to try on this game. I’m not getting paid for it. It gets boring to try in every game like these sweats. lol
I'm like a .75-.8 level player and it's so annoying I'll get smoked a few games then they put me on the short bus and while I'm #1 in there it still don't even feel good it's just patronizing and embarrassing
hahahaha! I feel ya!
This is the most frustrating echo chamber I've ever encountered because while I wholeheartedly agree and have the same experiences, it pisses me off that Activision has to hear at least sprinklings of these various rants, and they just fucking ignore it
I think it's going to get so loud that eventually they'll have no other option. The more these videos get out and people see them, the louder it gets.
On the last couple cods ive had a 1.57-1.70KD, I did take a break for about 8 months but i now have a 1.19KD on MW3. Yes i am probably rusty but there is no way thats just me being worse at the game. Its 100% due to how insanely turned up the SBMM this year. Its crazy
06:47 - Same. BT came and put Fibre Broadband on our street at the start of the year. Brand new cable run into every house and I still get shit on with 2ms latency.
running my vpn...and i'm not trying to sell you on it, has stopped a lot of the ghost rounds & lag compensation that I was experiencing prior to running it. In all fairness though, I was given the license to try it out (wanted to make sure it was legit before I put it out there on my channel) and had never ran a vpn before. There's several out there, so I'm not sure if one is better than the other. I just know sbmmoff is legit, and has seemed to curb a lot of the lag issues and ridiculously high ping games I was getting when not playing with friends back in the States.
None of this will stop until Activision sees that the silent majority still has control over their finances by stopping buying and playing the game. That’s the only option.
Solid argument. Voting with your dollars is a very real implement of change.
@@CasualResearch yup. I’ve seen this for over a decade now, people rightfully complaining about cod and then preordering $100 and complaining…. Every single year. I yeeted out of this fuckin franchise when I realized activision was rigging everything, even our aim, visual recoil, sim resist etc. once I saw that happening I was like fuck this. It’s like gambling. Who the fuck in their right minds throws down money into a virtual slot machine and then gets upset when it seems rigged. Lol. Fuck activision.
I got banned from the Activision support services, as I told them "server browser" is a missing feature from call of duty. It would solve SBMM issue especially for lower player count regions where this matchmaking kills the game within a few weeks.
I was in this position once. I covered cod on a now extinct channel from 2014 with the release of Advanced Warfare through until my final cod with Cold War, where I stopped playing and destroyed my old channel.
I found I was talking and complaining about the same things every year with each new game, covering the game turned into a chore. I decided to stop buying cod, and with that, I even unsubbed from all the cod channels I followed, I just wanted cod out of my sight completely.
If you cover cod in the future, just be ready to talk about the same issues every year. I still consider myself a cod fan, but of a time now long gone.
Activision will never change anything while players continue to buy the game every year. However, I know the current era of cod is now set in stone. It still sells massively every year, giving Activision no reason to change anything. It's sad what they've done to this franchise.
Dang...what a story you've must've lived with that last channel.
They didn’t even bring back kali sticks for secondary weapon wtf that’s why I haven’t bought it
I'm surprised they haven't signed an exclusive deal with Nerf or something stupid like that...then again, maybe Nerf isn't as woke as Activision.
Zombies is also affected by this. If the people can’t grind in mp because of sbmm, they will head to zombies. And when mp players play zombies, the devs are gonna make a zombies that appeal to mp players, and not the actual zombies players.
I'm sure the devtards will find a way to infect everything in the game.
I just play black ops 4 and even that game is near unplayable but I have more tolerance for it than I do sbmm in the newer cods
This is why I stopped playing newer cods and moved to shooters that are actually fun and have a real learning curve, is just an unpleasant experience to play something that you know is just designed for "money-milking" and doesn't have that essence of a genuine shooter.
I'd recommend a vpn. I uploaded a video on my experience with SBMMOff...there's several different companies out there, but this is the one I did the video on. My results were wildly better than I expected. Maybe check into the one I'm using, or some of the other ones out there. I won't play another game without running my vpn, ever again. It's a much better experience now, overall.
i may not have the best internet in the world but ive never had so much packet burst and lag compensation, its ridiculous
At least it's a cool phrase like, "packet burst." - SBMM (Sucking Big Man Meat) is ghey.
This dude wouldn’t be complaining if it was going the other way. If he was smashing on people “I love this game. Greatest cod ever” instead he plays against same skilled players and he gets his cheeks clapped. If he wanted to be relax play relaxed and screw the kd bud. Whiny little kids
I share your frustration man. All I want is an fps game where I can enjoy my experience. EVERYTIME I play cod I leave in a shitty mood.
You and me both. Still have a decent time playing with friends, but solo is a fkn blender.
@@CasualResearch Truly hope they get it together. Thanks for the honest video man.
Dude the lag compensation IS FUKKIN REAL ...I WAS WONDERING WTF WAS GOING ON then u explained it i was like THATS IT!! yes mw3 AI nsrfing pisses me OOFFFF!!
It's one of the most heinous things these dipshits have concocted so far. And now with the AI bots running around, it's even more laughable. Albeit, I have a suspicion that the AI bots are being used to fill lobbies until there's someone else that's finally in the queue that can fill the AI's role in the in-progress game. I also believe this might be part of the reason that people are experiencing so many in-progress games when they launch the queue.
