If you've been spending a lot of time in Destiny 2's Crucible, you've probably noticed that how you're grouped can be somewhat uneven one way or another if you aren't using Quickplay. Bungie says in their latest blog post that as they've been collecting data, players are reporting that they are frequently being placed in matches with significantly better or significantly worse players, resulting in some rather one-sided affairs. The developers say they aren't happy with the state of their Competitive matchmaking systems.
They said:
"According to the finer minds on our team, the Competitive playlist needs some love. Too many players are getting stomped by opponents who grossly outmatch them. In order to match you properly with an opponent in your league, we need to apply your skill rating. There is a bug we need to fix to ensure that this is done properly. We are applying that fix right now."
It should be noted that the Quickplay Mode is designed to ignore skill level mostly, so if you're getting cub stomped there, you're in the wrong mode. The bug fix that Bungie is planning to roll out will work for both hardcore and casual players, so if Destiny 2 is all you play, expect some stiffer competition coming your way.
