Modern Warfare 3 streamer destroyed in SBMM Rust bloodbath ActivisionA streamer got mowed down in a battle on Modern Warfare 3\u2019s Rust map, as SBMM worked against him at every turn. Skill-based matchmaking remains a contentious topic for players who spend lots of time in multiplayer titles. The system works to ensure players do battle against those of a similar skill level. In theory, this sounds like a dream come true. However, lower-skill and higher-skill players often end up mismatched, making for disappointing experiences. Call of Duty sits at the center of such conversations, with many players wishing SBMM would\u2019ve been removed ahead of MW3\u2019s release. One streamer may lead the charge in this regard, especially after repeat failures in a single match. Modern Warfare 3 streamer didn\u2019t stand a chance on Rust map Twitch streamer Myden has shared footage of their own destruction during an MW3 match on Rust. Based on the video\u2019s caption \u2013 \u201cthe SBMM final boss\u201d \u2013 their woes are thanks in no small part to skill-based matchmaking. For one minute straight, the streamer\u2019s character gets killed every few seconds. He\u2019ll spawn in, barely get a sense of his surroundings, and then instantly succumb to enemy fire. Other users in the Twitter thread felt the streamer\u2019s pain, with one person saying this clip takes them \u201cback to 2009 spawntraps.\u201d Another person mentioned running into the same issue in MW3. \u201cThe fact that this happens to other people besides me, I\u2019m sure it\u2019s a COD AI team that joins people lobby and sh**s on [people\u2019s] KD to keep order.\u201d Whatever\u2019s going on in the clip above, it\u2019s clear skill-based matchmaking isn\u2019t gaining any new fans among the Call of Duty community.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
