MW4 Beta Players Lose Fast-Paced Action to Strict SBMM

Posts from accounts including @charlieINTEL, @KARNAGEclan, and @RogeeRoger focus on skill-based matchmaking during the Modern Warfare 4 beta. @charlieINTEL said keeping SBMM unchanged would make the game not fun at all. @KARNAGEclan claimed the title without SBMM could become the most fun Call of Duty in years. @RogeeRoger questioned whether to blame matchmaking or game design, noting that players approach FPS titles differently than fifteen years ago. @Seyren added that perceptions of SBMM create lasting placebo effects that color every match outcome.
