    Yeah. Ever since the mmr changes during the event I started playing less and less. No fun getting spanked for hours just because you had a good game or two. Haven’t touched the game since before the event ended, honestly.

      It’s brutal; I think it’s a mix of the MMR changes they made and (possibly more so) the necro self revive.

      I’m fine with necro self revive, but if you get killed 6 times to a lower skilled player and loose a bunch of your MMR (because you revived and immediately got downed while they were body camping you…) that’s a problem. Basically, I think the necro self revive is causing high skill players to have these huge drops in their MMR … and that’s leading to people with crazy high KDRs that are far too skilled for their MMR bracket.

        I don’t think so, for a while after the self res was introduced we were doing fine. Halfway through this last event I read that Crytek has loosened upper mmr ranges. Which I can see, because all of a sudden we were getting matched with players with good KD, and their playstyle attested to that . Not bush campers, but people with good rotations and aim.

          I don’t know, it was a few weeks after the self res changes but before the MMR changes when I noticed it starting to get worse. More and more people with 1.5+ KDR in the 3-4 star bracket
