Modern Warfare 4 boss responds to SBMM backlash as players call it “miserable”

Infinity Ward has addressed the controversial matchmaking system in Modern Warfare 4, insisting that its priority is ensuring every Multiplayer match is a good experience for players. Skill-based matchmaking (SBMM) has been a major talking point in recent years, with many fans arguing that it makes every match feel overly competitive. Black Ops 7 attempted to address these complaints by introducing Open Matchmaking, which placed less emphasis on player skill. However, the introduction of Classic matchmaking in Season 5 sparked fresh backlash, as players complained that matches had become noticeably more difficult.
