@LawrenceMetten For the first time since MW2 S2, we finally got some indirect info about ranked percentages again. Back in MW2 they showed the full rank distribution chart. Maybe a billion-dollar company can finally show full BO7/WZ Season 3 rank distribution charts before Ranked Series starts.
This is the first time since MW2 Season 2 that we’ve gotten any info about rank percentages again. Maybe a billion-dollar company could at least prepare some kind of BO7 Season 3 and Warzone Season 3 rank distribution slide before Ranked Series starts. @Treyarch@CallofDuty
We've previously used MMR because it guarantees the right percentage of players end up in each Rank (Iridescent = top 2%, Crimson = Top 10%, etc)
But as a player, MMR can be confusing and feel out of your control -- which is why we've completely overhauled the SR System for S04
@LawrenceMetten I got matched with Kill (Top 23), Deleted User (Iri), and their boost team. They were clearly throwing the game — at first barely shooting, then blowing themselves up with grenades. In each round only one of them was actually playing, and TTVSlayerWZ was not getting kills at all.
@LawrenceMetten Then next match I play against the Top 250 team and see the same thing — my teammates are clearly throwing the game while trying to hide it with a few kills to keep at least a 1 KD, but they do nothing to actually win and just let the Top 250 team farm SR
@LawrenceMetten If you lose to them, matchmaking puts you into lower rank lobbies — but with lower rank cheaters on fresh accounts, and they still destroy you. This creates losing streaks and lowers your MMR. Something really needs to be done about WH and aimbot.
@LawrenceMetten This is great news, especially the detailed SR summary and no hidden MMR (if that’s really true). But the biggest issue is still cheaters. After a few wins, or even from the first game at a high rank decided by your MMR, you constantly run into wallhackers and aimbotters.

@AidenMiddo1@Treyarch Happened to me twice too. Last time was SnD — I killed the last guy, we won 6:4, then I got kicked. Combat record still showed the win but I lost 30 SR. Pretty sure someone on the enemy team crashed/kicked us from the match with some software. @Treyarch
@NETDUMA I live in Ukraine, my ping in CoD is usually 43-50ms, but in private lobbies I sometimes get 23ms. Does this mean there’s a closer server I could isolate/select with Geo-Filter, or would a Netduma router not really help? @NETDUMA
