Speaking of Multiplayer, then it seems like 2022’s Call of Duty Modern Warfare II has more undisclosed secrets for the players to learn. And they haven’t been revealed by the makers yet. At least that’s the situation, according to a recent theory regarding a mysterious matchmaking format in the latest title.
Call of Duty conspiracy theory tries to explain there is a ‘skill-based audio’ matchmaking system in Modern Warfare II
As of now, everyone is aware of the skill-based matchmaking (SBMM) system that was initially introduced in 2019’s rebooted Modern Warfare. Basically, it’s a method that places a player in online lobbies with players having a similar level of skills. As a result, high-skilled and low-skilled players are placed into lobbies with other equally skilled players, respectively.
While SBMM has already divided the community, whether it is good or bad, there appears to be another matchmaking system in this year’s Call of Duty Modern Warfare II. At least that’s the case according to a conspiracy theory suggested by a random player online. It was recently discovered by other users on Reddit.

One Reddit user posted an image of a tweet by an anonymous individual who tried to come up with a theory that Modern Warfare II allegedly has a ‘skill-based audio’ matchmaking system.
“There definitely is skill based audio in Modern Warfare II. I can barely hear footsteps on my account, but when I played on an account with low stats I could clearly hear footsteps and pinpoint where they are coming from,” read the tweet in the picture posted on the MWII subreddit.

However, the rest of the people on Reddit didn’t agree with this theory at all since they still can’t hear footsteps no matter what. Simply put, there’s no advantage of being a low-skilled player, even when it comes to hearing footsteps audio.
