Sort servers: skill

Postby Xier44 » 2 January 2020, 21:04

I got an idea that will be good to a lot of players maybe,server sorting on your skill.
That works like:
You pro - you play with pros
You just a player - you play with just players
You noob - you play with noobs
You new player (from 0 day to 2 days) - you play with newbies

How does match making even go specifically?
Like how can you tell if one is pro or casual?
And with the barely amount of players still playing
Won't one queue be extremely dead?

op wants some type of skill-based matchmaking, which is usually determined by mmr/elo of some kind

now the problem with that is that 1.) the game doesn't have a proper mmr system in place, 2.) matches are user-made and players don't queue in, and 3.) skill based matchmaking works properly at the expense of user connection to the server

this type of matchmaking also hurts good players (imagine skill as a normal bell curve with >50% of the curve being better than average) because there are less players as you go higher up in skill brackets. in games with sbmm in place, this results in laggier matches because to fill empty spots, it pulls players from different regions that are also in the same skill bracket. this won't work in pb2 because people join matches themselves; they don't get queued in by the server or the game so having a skill rating won't matter. high-skilled players will likely dodge each other by leaving matches and avoiding matches with high skill rated players anyways.

Bad idea, sorting the players into several parts is something that should be avoided, something like this can eliminate the term "togetherness" and even make a community of players called "Beginners" feel excluded, this idea is tantamount to a feudalism system or a caste system. Not only that this system also cannot be run due to lack of adequate players. In conclusion, this idea cannot be approved, even to be run in the Plazma Burst 2 game community.
