More ranks? Survivor/ Killer

ATM I’m a rank 6 Survivor and a Rank 8 Killer. I would say I’m decent at the game, but I only got the game A couple weeks ago. I do solo Q for survivor and sometimes with friends, I but can’t help but notice that I hit these ranks relatively easy. My friends are red ranks, and rlly grind the game, but my one friend hit red rank 2 weeks ago after reset and he’s not as motivated to play. I feel like there should be an increase in ranks, and how hard the reset is. Like have lowest be 30. It would make boosting harder to accomplish and when I see a rank one survivor/Killer I’ll respect them that much more. However, I don’t know what this would do for queue times at the highest rank. Lmk what you think!

    More Ranks will most likely result in longer queue times. Especially for low Rank players.

    But I agree on the harder Rank Reset. It used to be bigger, someone who was Rank 1 got reset to Rank 11 (or something around that). Now someone who is in Red Ranks only gets reset to Rank 5. I think that the changed Rank Reset is one of the factors which leads to unfair Matchmaking and also "helps" that people are in High Ranks who simply dont belong there.

    So yes, a change would be great.

    Devs already said zillion times that they are remaking the MM, they are implementing a MMR. Let's hope they are doing a pretty good job like they did with last patch map changes and Lerry's remake :)

    I mentioned this on a diff thread:


    I'd do 1-50 with the colors being 10 ranks instead of 4. I'd also remove blood points caps in specific categories and set the pip system to be based on total bps earned. Theyd have to tweek some of tge scoring events, but as you go up in rank you earn more too. Example: hitting a killer with a pallet at brown is worth 200, hitting a killer with a pallet in red is worth 3000 (with no bp cap for doing it). Completing gens would be worth a lot more as well. This would lead too two things, number 1 a more nuanced ranking system, and number 2 you could start categorizing survivors and match them together for solo q. Theres the guy who can run the killer for 5 gens, tge game could try and match him with 2 survivors that like to do gens and another survivor thats very altruistic. In theory would lead to more balanced games.
