This system is designed to enhance the competitive nature of the game and ensure a fair, balanced experience for players across all platforms and modes. Here’s what you need to know about SBMM in Modern Warfare III.

What is Skill-Based Matchmaking (SBMM)?

SBMM is a matchmaking system used in online multiplayer games to pair players against opponents of similar skill levels. The goal is to create balanced and competitive matches, where players can have challenging yet fair games.

SBMM in Modern Warfare III

Across All Platforms and Modes

Modern Warfare III implements SBMM in all its game modes. Whether you’re playing on PlayStation, Xbox, or PC, the matchmaking system will consider your skill level when finding opponents.

How It Works

• Skill Assessment: The game evaluates your performance based on various metrics like kill/death ratio, score per game, and overall win/loss record.
• Matchmaking: You are then matched with and against players who have similar skill levels, aiming to create a balanced and competitive environment.

Larger Modes and SBMM

War Mode

• In larger game modes like War, players have reported experiencing a bit more leniency in the SBMM system.
• Possible Relief: These modes may offer a more varied range of skill levels within matches, possibly due to the larger player count and the chaotic nature of these modes.

Team Up

• Playing with friends can make navigating through SBMM more enjoyable and is reported to help with the SBMM grind (at least for the higher-tier players in the party).

Conclusion

SBMM in Call of Duty Modern Warfare III aims to deliver a balanced competitive environment for players of all skill levels. While it ensures fair play, it’s important for players to understand that larger modes like War might offer slightly different experiences in terms of matchmaking. Embrace the challenge, refine your skills, and enjoy the thrill of competition in Modern Warfare III.
