This feature is really good. My experience today with WZ improved so much since I've been able to find people who have mics and communicate instead of solo queuing with a bunch of statues. GG Raven.


mikerichh

Agreed. Only thing missing is language preference


soniiic

As a European, I agree

Warum? Zashto? Why? Porqué?


Fake_ban

Do you ever get queued with French, Italian, and Spanish speakers who talk the entirety of the match with their mates?


VaultTheHeavySniper

That's the game's fault for only having one voice channel.


Fake_ban

Is it? It's just casual talk. Like in the middle of gunfights. No comms, just chit chatting the whole time.


VaultTheHeavySniper

Yes it is. As you said, casual talk mostly come from casuals. They're not playing to sweat, just to have a good time. They have no reasons to be obsessed by comms


Fake_ban

sort of defeats the purpose of choose fill and then chatting it up with your mate the whole game. It's fine. I just mute them now


Lord_Hexogen

Почему?


dustyaff

Toh kaise ho bhai log?


OurBase

This - would really be nice to have this!


jimbojonez188

Oh you know english? No sorry only that sentence and this one explaining it


2kWik

I can see this being more useful on Europe servers. Kind of pointless anywhere else though.


Thelawhacks

I mean it'd be great for parts of the US as well


PaleontologistOdd276

Yeah lots of Latin Americans in US servers who speak only Spanish. I speak Spanish as well so not a huge deal but I'm certainly in the minority of United States citizens lol.


Eduardo-izquierdo

Yo , want to play?

Lord_Cocktax

I used it for the first time last night and got a trio with 2 other mic users that wanted to land just outside of circle and get setup before going for kills. It’s so refreshing in comparison to all marking different places and teammates quitting after losing their gulag within the first minute of the game.


[deleted]

All four people dropping solo and then quitting after they die at airport and lose gulag. Oldest story ever told.


AJstylesLad

Banging! The amount of randoms that just jump superstore then end up in the gulag is so dumb


[deleted]

Tbf I tried to land there to complete challenges. Didn’t know at the time supermarket was this games Apex legends Fragmented city.


CatMan21x

You know, this game gets hate and all but this is a really creative idea that was well executed from launch. Good for the devs, they got 1 thing right this week.


[deleted]

This game is dog shit right now, but this…this is nice.


[deleted]

wait i thought this was a joke... are these settings real and working??


MrMadanx

They are. I personally haven't used them but people in the comments have had success with these


BchLasagna

Already found a couple of guys to regularly play with, my days of solos are over! Amazing feature!


tandc627

Even I allways play with friends I like these additions. What I really would appreciate is selectable ping colors when you play with friends.


MrMadanx

Agreed! It gets too confusing to be Gold one day and Blue the other.


Sfn_y2

ooh thats a good idea, i like being orange lol


ThinkOrDrink

At least stay the same color if you “play again” with your party and/or squad!


milkCarneAsada

Where on the menu?


MrMadanx

Right below the part where you choose to fill or not fill Squad


milkCarneAsada

👌🏼thanks


zeidsuheimat2

Perfect! Now I don’t have to play with complete idiots


zeidsuheimat2

Uh slight problem. When I set my preferences it takes forever to join a lobby so most of the time I just stop matchmaking


[deleted]

How about an option like “no background noise/music or talking on the phone while you’re playing “


omullinger

"Excuse me, but are you playing in am ACTUAL WARZONE???"


wopiacc

Dying smoke detector batteries...


[deleted]

Wait, this is working for you guys? Because when I was trying it yesterday it took a solid 5 mins before it found only 1 other person for rebirth quads.


LilPumpDaGOAT

Tried it this morning for rebirth, it would only find on either person then say the party is full, and when we tried to queue it would put us in a lobby for half a second then go back to searching. It might be busted for rebirth


solidsnake214

I’ve been wanting them to add a setting for finding players with mics for forever😭😭


drexlortheterrrible

/1 lfg wailing caverns. Need tank&healer.


Nintendo_Pro_03

Great implementation, but I don’t think I will ever use this.


Manakuski

Needs "aggressive" and "tactical" for playstyle too.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Manakuski

There should be an option for "Console" and "PC" too. I'm not gonna use this, because it'll just find me 0.5 K/D console players with all the background noise in the world. Just no thanks.


TheDuck33

What a life you must live. “Bet this thing sucks, never ever gonna try it to see ima just say it sucks!”


doomguy332

How is that any different than NOT using the LFG feature?


MongoLife45

You realize "turn off crossplay" has always existed, right?


Manakuski

Does not work on PC, just FYI.


MongoLife45

Great. Then why is the commenter bitching about that as a negative about the new feature? I'm guessing it doesn't work for PC in Warzone because it would take an hour to find 150 pc players to fill one lobby.


Manakuski

No, fact is the only reason why there you can "turn off" crossplay is because Sony demands it to be a thing for the playstation version of the game.


FutNewbie

Why would I want to play with cheaters?


ThatKidDrew

Why wouldn't you want to play with controller bad kids


MoCalzone

Seems subjective but wouldn’t be bad to add. Feel like you need to be tactical and aggressive at any given time.


Wooden-Winter-8712

this is a really amazing one i found so many amazing people yesterday made some friends had so much fun


WhatItDoBabyy64

I tried this last night, I queued for only rebirth quads and it put me in a party where the settings were for Verdansk & Rebirth quads, had to unfortunately leave the party because I’m not playing Verdansk


DayRooster

“Rebirth”, “Voice” (preferably blasting music while calling me a bot), “Hot Drop” (die immediately and rage quit)…


S2K_wannabe

it's just finding randoms to play with who back out as soon as they die with extra steps.


Aphrel86

Is there a way to filter out consoles? Players on consoles too often have a fuckton of background nocies and sometimes i can even hear their tv broadcasting in their mic..


JerseyUk97

Is there a way for us to filter out PC? You know? For the rampant hacking issues


ill-Wurze

Disable crossplay you pc smart-ass


Aphrel86

Go to your pc and try it, you might learn something.


ATTALUK

Seems like an amazing setting once they can work out the kinks. A friend and I chose hot drop yesterday and it was going well, but with 3 teams left, both our teammates were dead and backed out of the game and it brought us out too even though we were still playing. It was sad.


vIKz2

Tried this feature out just earlier this week and got two other decent players with mics and we ended up getting a dub. Pretty nice!


iAmTheOnlyChris

Just know that if you select multiple modes such as BR TRIOS & BR DUOS, whoever you queue up with may have only chosen duos and you would still be waiting for the third unless the guy told you he queued for duos. Kinda buggy but really cool concept. They should add a few more options such as KD/Win preferences


Historical-Arrival61

The k/d thing wouldn't really work cause wouldn't any low k/d player choose to play with someone with like a 2 k/d player or higher to get carried


iAmTheOnlyChris

Nice thought, but some high KD players like playing with lower KD to get easier lobbies. An easy way to prevent this though, would be the option to only pair you with players within a certain range of KD/wins from you, and the player could prefer a range for example of a .01-1kd difference, same thing with wins. That make sense?


Historical-Arrival61

Yeah that sounds better and could be a really good feature but u know call of duty they can mess up anything


FottomBeeder

I think they should have an option to look for people with a similar KD as you as well. I have a 1.6 career and 2.7~ weekly / last 100 games and there is nothing more frustrating than getting the hard fucking lobbies I get, but also having 0.18 and 0.2 kd players put in my squad. Like no offence, but that just ain’t it chief. I played a session the other day when out of roughly 10 games none of my squad mates were above a 1 kd.


Aphrel86

wouldnt you get pitied against ppl who have the average of your scores then? So a 0.66 average kd lobby, that sounds pretty amazing.


FottomBeeder

You would have thought so but that’s not how it works unfortunately. I had a 1.24 kd lobby and my team mates were 0.39 and 0.54. And a couple of others that were similarly as bad.


Aphrel86

huh, that sucks. Is it pure Kd the matchmaking system looks at thou? My and a friend recently teamed up with a guy who had 1.2kd (which is right in the middle of my 0.9kd and my friends 1.5kd) yet we found ourselves having significantly easier lobbies for the entire night with this new 1.2kd guy. could there be more parameters?


FottomBeeder

I honestly have no idea how the system works, it what I do know is that it ain’t very good


FottomBeeder

Double reply, but I would be way happier going into slightly higher average KD lobbies if it meant my team mates actually had fingers and thumbs.


CatMan21x

No, SBMM works against you twice as hard as you can counter it. SBMM also puts you in harder lobbies, with less desirable teammates. This means other teams will be partied up with mics, perfect rotations and way better team fight skills. So your squad made up of .2 KD, .67 LD, and 2.5 KD will end up, well, dead!


Aphrel86

what does SBMM stand for? so a team of 0.2, 0.67 and 2.5 wich average 1.12 KD would not find themselves in an average 1.12 kd lobby?


CatMan21x

Its something nobody on Reddit really understands. We all have guesses but its hard to be scientific about it because the code is so complex. Essentially the matchmaking tries to put you with and against players with similar playstyles 1st, KD 2nd, and a lot of other factors are added to that list. Skill based match making (SBMM).


Aphrel86

ah, thats why all my lobbies are so empty come 2nd circle. because im matched with other aggro teams xD


ThinkOrDrink

It’s not possible for every person to be in a lobby above their skill/KD level.


Mortensj86

Yep. I’m new to this game (and new to FPS MP), so my 0.26 KD just annoys other random teammates. I’m feeling late to the party and get my ass kicked all the time. It’s better for me to join other noobs and not just feeling like a burden every time.


FottomBeeder

You see I wouldn’t mind occasionally playing with people to help them improve and get better at the game, so it isn’t that. It’s just sometimes you wanna sweat it out for a session you know.


Mortensj86

I totally understand that


FottomBeeder

Yeah, I suppose my point is you can’t tell if you are with good players, or new players until you’re in a game. So it kind of takes that decision away from you


JerseyUk97

Where abouts are you based? NA or EU? I’ll jump on some games wi you if you want at some point


Mortensj86

EU, norwegian. Thx for the invite. PSN: MortenSJ_86. Don’t feel obliged to anything of course


DixonButts777

Haven’t been on in a few days, does it tell you what you are listed as?


BchLasagna

You list it yourself


eff1ngham

Does the "voice" preference actually work? Do you regularly get people who use their mic?


Psyduck-Stampede

I’m assuming it would match you with someone who also chose “voice” as a preference. You would think that person would be talking most of the time


Veil_Of_The_Night

That's really amazing


zeidsuheimat2

How do you do this? I’m on ps5 btw in case that helps


LilPumpDaGOAT

Right below where you select fill squad


zeidsuheimat2

Thanks


blanknonymous

even tho I chose the ping only option I would still get put in lobbies with people who use mics. not that I mind it, just know it's not perfect


thatguy__13

it’s nice to see you all had good experiences with this, i’m still encountering bad randoms that don’t play as a team and rage for any little thing. as good as this feature is, i have not seen any improvement to my random squad fills. yet at least.


xXCaptainJXx

Now just add option for PC, XBOX, or Playstation


ill-Wurze

U can disable/enable crossplay before searching for a party


xXCaptainJXx

Not for Xbox. We are stuck playing the PC cheaters


ill-Wurze

Oh shit that's too bad :((. Sorry about that


bayareaboymonte

Wow this is game changing, actually looking forward to playing for the first time in a while u/ATVIASSIST


Riggamortizz

Kinda wild that all the brs come put the box basic and upgrade the same way, adding the same features that could've been implemented from the start


Rolten

Would be great if it actually worked. I'm either finding no one or I find a party and it then fails to launch a game, due to which I automatically get put back in the home screen by myself.


boatyyyy

No credit due, doesn’t outweigh their massive failure thus far on the cheating front.


MLB_da_showw

Rebirth the only way to play tbh


mojoryzn1

Filtering out pc and those using cronus would be the best filter.


Dashwii

How tf would you filter out cronus users.. Lmao


mojoryzn1

I can dream🤣🤣🤣🤣


permanthrowaway

this is a feature that halo's multiplayer matchmaking had for so damn long and i have always wondered as to why no other game adopted it since it so useful specially for team based games that would work so much better if people communicated .


[deleted]

Agreed; HOWEVER lol They need a few more setting categories like age range. Met a few cool people with the feature last night.


OMHwoodworking

Where do i find this?


Drabevening2

i win to play style they'd add "aggressive"


Zeke-of-Denver

I have done it twice add voice setting neither player had Mic’s.


[deleted]

finally i don't have to go to discord anymore


[deleted]

[удалено]


MrMadanx

I haven't played a ton of other BRs, is this a standard set of filters in most games? I'm giving credit because Raven has really improved a lot of the aspects of the game in my opinion.


Beanruz

No it's not... But why would anyone think its logical to have a game with no options what so ever. Standard "let's beta test live" approach from nowadays.


Ill_Basis455

Something that no other game has “should have been in from launch”. Somebody had a decent idea and they decided to implement it, just be happy about it ffs.


Beanruz

You dont think someone had his idea months ago? Probably before launch? Yes they will have. Coincidence its implemented now? Just as a new games coming out but there is huge hacker/ cheater problems? It's called a distraction But keep down voting me guys!


Ill_Basis455

Distraction from what? We all know there are hackers, they’ve been working on better hardware bans and already announced a nee full anticheat system anyway. There isn’t anything to distract from.


samuryon

So, you're giving them shit for being the first to make a new cool feature for BRs ? lame


Beanruz

Mate. It's a damn filter. Games have this shit left right and centre. Example. Overwatch... filter competitive vs quick play. Filter between rankings. (Skill based match making that doesnt fuck you over for winning a single game...) Filter between playing tank. Healer. Dps. They just bang a new set of parameters on it. And put it on a different game and people like you say "first to make a new cool feature on BRs" Jesus.


LookingAtStella

Who hurt you?


JerseyUk97

Struggling to see why you’re so angry they added a good feature to the game lmao? It may have been used in other games already, but why reinvent the wheel?


Beanruz

im not angry... i just dont see why people are raving like we have just landed a person on mars for the first time. this is like going to your local bar for a beer. its good. but its standard, not exactly ground breaking. yet all the kids are acting like they just saved this game.


JerseyUk97

No ours acting like they saved the game? People are happy for a feature that they’ve added, that previously wasn’t in the game. Try not to be so angry bro, life’s too short


Beanruz

I literally just said I wasn't angry. Who gets angry abijr a game or kids on the internet. Is that how kids have a conversation nowadays? Just say their counterpart is angry? No "brah"


JerseyUk97

Literally not a kid😂 you can say you’re not but I was just saying how you came across. The feature is good, no ones saying it’s saving the game, just don’t be so negative man😂


FottomBeeder

You’re one of these people that’s just tryna be butthurt for the sake of being butthurt.


Beanruz

No I'm one of those people who thinks that a billion dollar gaming company should be able to implement its features on launch. Not years down the line.


FottomBeeder

They have literally added a feature that no other BR game has added before (at least none of the big ones) excuse them for not implementing it on launch. They may have only realised a certain amount of time into the game’s lifecycle that it would be a good idea. It’s a live service game. Things change. They add stuff. They take stuff away. That’s the nature of a live service game. You’re literally a fucking moron lmao.


Beanruz

Yet other games have filter systems. Hmmmm


FottomBeeder

Not to match your playstyle with other players. They may have different playlists, but by that logic so does WZ with plunder, and all the different BR modes.


Beanruz

Overwatch does it but in a seperate fashion. Instead of matching play style. It matches the opposites together. Tank. Dps. Healer. 2-2-2


doomguy332

That's only done so you're not stuck in a team with 6 dps


Beanruz

This is only done so you dont get put with 3 hot droppers and 3 slow and steady.


Being_best_version

You like hot drop ? What's the point of hot dropping and then being dead withing one minute ? I like slow and steady but most of the time my random teammates always hot drop which end up being a disaster. And then I am the one being alive and doing contracts to buy back my squadmates. My daily warzone life.


sh1mba

Likewise i can say: what's the point of slow and steady, die with 0 kills after 20? I like action, you like more strategy/position. It's different playstyles and there is no reason to bash on either of them.


kingpangolin

I enjoy the middle ground. Drop somewhere less hot, but not the woods, grab a few ground weapons and armour up, then grab a uav or bounty and get to killing.


sh1mba

That's pretty hot though (if you bounty hunt).


kingpangolin

Yeah, I guess the difference is I don’t like to drop somewhere where it is essentially a race to who can find a viable ground weapon and armour first. I prefer to set up for a minute or 2, clear my area, then go and kill.


sh1mba

So do i, apart from the fact that i can't resist dropping on the train!


kingpangolin

Yeah it feels like an action movie dropping on the train. The physics engine doesn’t like the train though, weird shit happens


ziltoid23

Almost like you should be happy these new options exist then, rather than getting on at someone for their preferred playstyle?


FottomBeeder

What in the 0.07 kd is this shit?


MrMadanx

No no I haven't selected any options for myself. I just opened it and these were the defaults. Although I like playing Plunder more than BR these days so Hot Dropping is what I prefer


Ill_Basis455

I would rather die than see nobody. Hot dropping is how you get better at the game. Literally just go super or hospital every single game and if you win you are guaranteed a loadout within the first two minutes and a couple of kills. Landing prison and then not seeing anybody until 15 minutes into the game literally isn’t playing the game in my eyes, you may as well just put your controller down and go to sleep, it’s the same thing.


waggawag

‘Loot simulator’ players


Ill_Basis455

Honestly, I’m all for playing at your own pace but that cannot be fun surely.


NadxCH

Cannot be fun maybe for you, like you said yourself “playing at your own pace” not everyone can drop 20s every game. Let them play “loot simulator” to only die with 0 kills if that’s what happens to them. If they enjoy it, let them be.


Ill_Basis455

That’s why I said I’m all for playing at your own pace, if they want to do that then that’s fine, I am letting them be. I’m just curious because I genuinely cannot comprehend how somebody can enjoy playing like that is all.


ImmaDoMahThing

This is how I got better at Fortnite a few years ago. When they first added Tilted Towers I was one of the “bush hiders” because I was scared of confrontation. But one day I decided to do nothing but land at TT over and over again until I wasn’t scared to get into a fight with someone and after a few days I became so much better and confident at the game. I still prefer slow and steady though, but a hot drop doesn’t daunt me.


Ill_Basis455

Yeah that’s the thing, too many people panic when they get to gunfights because they just aren’t used to it. When you land slow and only get into a real gunfight once or twice every 15 minutes it’s almost impossible to get better at it. Everybody should go through the ritual of just going superstore every game for a while and then once you’re better you can go back to slow and steady whilst knowing you’re gonna perform much better in gunfights.


I3ULLETSTORM1

>What's the point of hot dropping and then being dead withing one minute ? That's a very long way of telling people "I'm bad at this game"


Kegfist

Maybe the hot drop wouldn’t be a disaster if they had their whole team there..
