Treyarch has clarified the matchmaking system for Call of Duty: Black Ops 7. They've confirmed that Open playlists and Quick Play options use open matchmaking, which doesn't focus on player skill. This move aims to create diverse match experiences, responding to community calls for less skill-based matchmaking. While most modes won't use SBMM, some like ranked and Moshpit will. With recent updates fixing bugs and maintaining creative control, how do you feel about these changes?
