Kill Switch update: The issue affecting Baermar Uraz's Ugly Sweater has been fixed and the cosmetic has been reenabled in all queues with this update.

Did you break the STEAM achievements on purpose?

I'm asking this since you soon are going to make a rework in match making and ranks won't mean anything. Rank has always been useless now but still, we can at least SEE THE NUMBERS!

Don't make the ranking invisible!

    I know this was directed to BHVR and or the Devs, but as the red box above this sub-forum states, "Please note: although we may stop by occasionally, this is not a developer Q&A."

    Meaning they might come by and see this, but this sub-forum is primarily for asking the community questions. Not saying you're not allowed to direct your question to them or anything, but i'm just letting you know in-case they don't respond to your post.

    besides that though

    BHVR does not break the Steam Achievements on purpose and they're always looking to improve and fix them.

    Also, the change to the matchmaking is a healthy one since a lot of players (especially new players) are being paired with Survivors that're way down the ranking system or Survivors that're at the top of said ranking system. The same goes for Killers, a coordinated team (not a SWFs) would sometimes be paired with a Green Rank Killer for example... which is an unfair fight since the team that Killer is facing is usually Red Ranks, mixed with Purple, or it's their actual rank bracket.

    This change is going to make everything a lot more fair and challenging for Killers that seek a challenge with Survivors that're in their skill-set as well as keeping newer players with Survivors/Killers that're in their own skill-set. So in a sense, Top-Tiers play with Top-Tiers and Mid-Tiers play with Mid-Tiers, so on and so forth.

    This is actually something a lot of people suggested in the past and I personally am glad it's finally being taken into account.

    Well that's only if it works, i think it will be an improvement but will still not fixed with that, a program to determine how well you played is kind of impossible for a game like DbD


    Tho, to go back to the "main" topic, maybe the achievements broke because of the appearance of this skill ranking ?

    Thank you. I really hope this game reaches a state in which both sides are pleased with it.

    Me too, I do hope it all works out in the end. A lot of people asked for a system like this one so, i'm sure they'll do their best on it.
