Can't change rating range of opponents in live chess

Sort:

I want to play opponents rated +100 to -100 in live chess. The only way I've found how to change this is by creating a custom game. However, I have two problems:

1) I'm still being paired with people more than 100 points different from me.

2) I want to be able to select my rating range and time controls without having to make a custom game, is this possible? Shouldn't you be able to change these defaults?

You need to go to Custom, Show rating settings, choose -100/+100 and keep using your standard time control. Cheers.

Thanks :)

Is there a way to make these settings bleed over to the chess.com app?

I'm not sure unfortunately

no, on the app you have no choice - it sucks and limits the value of the app quite a bit, but it probably increases game volum
