I see this a lot, someone like @Raven9 is actually depipping in purpose to play against worse players and then gets matched against people he should be against anyways... irony at its best
Considering I posted at the same time, which you can clearly see by time stamp, no I hadn’t. So you go afk as killer to get free shards and you’re clearly aware that is going to cause you to derank ending up against people you shouldn’t be. Sounds like the players you got matched with is fair

Lol, you can tell when someone gets caught with no logical response because they resort to jokes and memes. I didn’t realize how right I was, you are so mad because you wanna derank and play against potatoes but the matchmaking being messed up screws up your plan!
I’ve had this happen and the difference is more extreme because I’m rank 15/16. And to those that say rank means nothing, I disagree. It may not be a perfectly executed system but it definitely means something. There should never be more than one color difference in rank between survivor and killer but it happens with alarming frequency. I try to get hints in the lobby of experience level and bail if they are obviously in a higher tier than I am. Prestiged Megs with flashlights? Hard pass. Lol
True, it’s just a game. But people like to play fairy if possible against people of similar skill levels.
Would you want to join a rec basketball league at the Y and find out that 1 of the teams was comprised of former NBA players? Would you wanna join a local chess tournament and find out there were grandmasters flying in to play?
Yeah it's just rough trying to start playing to get rolled by rank 1 when you're just scratching the surface of green ranks. Once passing that threshold it's been too frustrating to consider it enjoyable.
I was salty when I wrote that. Rank 1s telling me at 13 to git gud etc post game. Nothing personal just salty at the time.
I really feel those people are the minority, I have had all red rank teams lately (solo myself) and at the end I always tell the killer “good game, sorry bout matchmaking,” and usually at least one other person adds the same.
I’ve even gone so far as to defend the killer if a teammate says anything like “gg ez,” I say “well it should be easy we’re 10 ranks above him, but he still did pretty good.”
Yeah,I agree with you somewhat. I'm not sure there's a way to make it truly fair and even...AND not have the queue take forever. If they match all the same rank,it'll just take forever. Gotta remember people dodge lobbies they don't like as well. I've never seen anyone that was truly unbeatable. Rank doesn't mean much more than playtime and dedication. I just don't want this stuff to scare off the new players we need...but I also don't want the devs to jump the gun on a system that might make even more of the diehard players want to quit. Hiding the rank might help with one of those issues...but it doesn't solve the major problems that are discussed here literally every day now.
Yes and no. Rank 13s should never be going against a team of full Rank 1s. Seeing as how the devs broke the ranking system, it's on them to make ranks more accurately reflect ability, not for the Killers to deal with it. There is no ELO system in this game, only rank numbers. As long as that's true, they have to balance matchmaking keeping that in mind.
I was rank 13 earlier after reset and was going against full red rank 1s. I am a red rank 1 killer though a lot of the time.
Most people who are rank 13 should not I agree, but my point is that the inherent system is flawed too, so even if they did fix that one issue, it would still be broken just a little less so.
The entire rank system needs to be re-examined and re-worked...bc honestly it's kinda ruining the game for me.
I used to not care bc I was having fun. But after one post-game argument I had with a Survivor who insulted me for being Rank 14 Killer (even though I'm a actually a Survivor main lol), I decided to make an effort to rank up last season...
And I did! At the end of the Season, I was Rank 8 Survivor and Rank 12 Killer! I was so proud of myself! But I shouldn't have been, bc it was a huge waste of time!
"Rank Update Error". Set me back TWO colors... From 8 to 14 on Survivor and 12 to 16 in Killer. I was so mad. So I hop on the website.... "We are aware of the problem". Well great... That's a comfort.
So then I try to tell myself "Idc about rank. I'm just gonna play for fun."
But with the lengthy match-making times, laggy servers, unbalanced matches, getting tunneled/camped by every other Killer, getting trolled/looped/teabagged by every other Survivor, and then de-pipping repeatedly due to all these other factors beyond your control to the point that you de-rank... It's kinda hard to even have fun anymore. Thinking of taking a break, too.
That’s cool I didn’t know the devs were doing that. So that makes sense on why I am getting Rank 1 swfs because I play like a rank 1 killer but my rank got reset further than it should have so I got sent back to 10 rather than to 5
I was going to comment something similar,but not as elegantly,lol. Well said. I agree completely. I do feel bad that people are going to be unsportsmanlike,win,and then dump on a killer with a way lower rank. Especially if they are using low level perks and all. It's happened to me before and I'm always like...it's not like you did anything special. Not everyone is out to be rude though.
Matchmaking is the biggest problem in the game in my opinion. The fact that this happens so regularly and for such a long time over and over again is shocking. This is just going to force even more KIllers from the game if they're constantly being matched with people way above their level.
Imagine if the game were to actually match you with people on the same skill level which is supposedly what the new system will do but the fact they want to hide ranks and possibly not show MMR either just makes me think the devs want to get rid of que times more and then hide any reason someone would have to complain.
Ya they are doing a great job of killing their player base. Maybe the goal is to have all the killers completely stop playing so that there’s only survivors waiting to find matches. If that’s what the goal is then yes they’ve been killin it. Devs have caved in on so many changes that barely anyone wants to play killer anymore. Survivors are so toxic and poor sports that people get tired of it and play something better. Their current rank system is what they were forced to do because not enough killers can reach or care to reach red ranks. But all it’s doing is forcing newer killers to not want to play because they rarely get a fair match.
To ur question yes and no! Yes bc itll help me approve my skill in the game and there is always room 4 Improvement no matter how good you are and for no because I kind of agree with you to some point it would take the fun out of the game so I guess you could say it is what it is again I still say it is a game and I'm not going to act like I don't get mad and rage a little bit but again what can we do just move on and play the next game

A very well thought out reply, sorry I called you out for deranking and you couldn’t formulate a good excuse.
I wonder, is this your girlfriend who voted for all your comments? ;D
Lol, you can tell when someone gets caught with no logical response because they resort to jokes and memes. I didn’t realize how right I was, you are so mad because you wanna derank and play against potatoes but the matchmaking being messed up screws up your plan!
If this will make you happy, I say yes to your answer ;D GG

Same happened to me. Trying new killer with one perk. Sometimes you just got to nut up or shut up.

I got 1 kill, so definitely the survivors
hey man you shouldve just tried harder KEKW

Im still waiting to see what an "unknown error" means. That and why I get a random NAT error every so often.
I was rank 13 earlier after reset and was going against full red rank 1s. I am a red rank 1 killer though a lot of the time.

Ranks mean nothing. I'm a rank 10 who gets put against rank 1 killers, still escape. Just depends on the game, most red ranks are boosted.
I dont know what you are talking about? O.o
