What if more ranks or tiers were added?
Do you think that adding more ranks, or adding tiers with their own ranks would help the matchmaking problem?
RIght now it is fairly easy to get to rank 10 as a survivor. I know, because I can't loop killers, at all, can't hit great skill checks, and I very rarely escape, and I still got there fairly quickly. As killer I feel a little more comfortable in first person, but i still have a lot to learn, yet am constantly matched with purple and red ranks. If there was a bigger gap in ranks, or a tier barrier, it might help separate the newer, less skilled players from the much better players.
It seems that even if they fixed MM so that it works as they want it to, it will still be placing less skilled players with far more skilled players, simply due to the low number of ranks, and the ease of improving rank for newer player. Either that, or make rank progression slower. I know that people like the feedback of getting to better ranks, but I'd much prefer being placed into matches with people of a similar skill level.
Tiers might also prevent people from intentionally depipping to higher ranks, if they could not depip out of their tier.
Just spitballing here, but something needs to be done.
