Hello EA,
I truly hope you are going to read this! I would also assume that anyone that is working on this game, and has been playing it since the beginning, and then playing it constantly since the beginning as a Random Player, truly already understands this situation.
If the EA team already understands this, then I really wonder why this hasn't been improved already.
Since the beginning, I have noticed, when playing as a Random player, either in PUBS or Ranked, it is not often you are matched up with the same LEVEL of players, or even close.
I'm at LEVEL 500 with over 1900 hours in this game, and it's really unbearable!
I have been playing all of Season 7 as a Random player in PUBS and Ranked, and I can tell you for a fact that on average as a LEVEL 500 player, I am typically matched up the majority of time with ONLY around LEVEL 50-75.
Rarely do I hardly ever play constantly with at least LEVEL 200 players, and any range of players at least in some area of the HUNDREDS level, even just at 100, is also RARE!
I've already played in a lot of Clans, and I'm really not interested in it anymore. I just want to sit quietly by myself at the computer and play a quiet game of Apex, and yes, I'm muted when I play, I never talk, and it's how I like it, nice and peaceful.
But I'm not sure I can continue to play Apex and enjoy it. Playing when I wasn't this skill level and then with Randoms better than I was at that time was nice a difference. Now I'm the best player the majority of the time, with no one to match up with against me, is really painful.
I spent 4 days as Gold 4, the players I was matched up with in 4 days were so terrible, I couldn't even move to Gold 3 in that period of time, that is just pathetic. 4 days for a LEVEL 500, and can't even move the next Rank Level up, because your team is that bad.
I constantly spend the majority of my game play rescuing either my downed or dead team mates, or playing by myself when they have died and when it's impossible to get their banners without dying myself.
I don't mean to blow my own horn, but as this moment in Season 7, I have not played with one single player in this Season that has my Season 7 Stats, and that's just sad.
So will you take the time EA and give me a reply and let me know what's in store for this situation, or is it time to move on an play another game and say goodbye to Apex, because this is never going to change?
Because seriously, playing all the time with bad players, I'm not going to really ever be able to get better, I'm where I will remain, unless I can get good players that know how to really play constantly at PREDATOR LEVEL, no one can just play this game all the time Solo and expect to get anywhere.
Good game play many times does require a good team and playing Randoms that is a very rare thing!
But if you will PLEASE put Solo in this game, then maybe there's some hope for some enjoyment again, because at this point, it's either give up and move on, or play Solo. Even Duo match making is just as bad as Trios.

Same here, I'm at lvl 465 and matched with a 10-ish and 50-ish players that doesn't have the same hours really make the matches a burden, I often have to carry and revive/respawn the entire squad, lately I just leave them behind because is such a waste of time, feels like being on a 1 v 3 lobby all the time

I am well over lvl 500, I see low levels all the time too.
But they need to play also, and need somewhere to learn.
I get the whole "muted" thing I do it myself a lot, because really they have nothing to say that will add anything positive to my existence. I just focus on my play and the game.
Gold 4 and 3 are terribly monotonous lobbies because the skills and mindsets are very varied. It is enough to make you want to stop playing. Find even one friend it will make it breeze by.
