In the this development video, Jon and Mike, from Respawn, discuss how they’re going to switch up the matchmaking process for Titanfall 2. Although, they didn’t exactly say it was going to be “skill based matchmaking” it sure as hell seems like that’s what they are going for.
SBMM(skill based matchmaking) has been somewhat of a sore subject when it comes to any multiplayer based game and the truth is, most players hate it – at least that’s what it seems like. I personally haven’t had too many bad experiences with SBMM, but I much prefer a matchmaking system based on connection than skill level. I believe connection should be the number one priority in any online based game. There have been so many times where people lag out of the game (making the teams uneven) or just constantly start “rubber banding” across the map. I’ve never been the type to get “salty” over a multiplayer game for matching, so I’m still beyond stoked for this game!
