Instructions:

Please vote on overall. Eg: 50% or more goes into the fair category. Under 50% unfair. %0% - even and No Change

Try to think of the number of games. So if 8/10 games were fairly balanced player wise that would be fair. 5/10 would be even etc.

Also don't go by the player level - simply on the experience. :-)

A second poll will be coming with regards to the amount of time player.

    PC- Fair matching- More than 5 of 10 games

    Depends on the Killer on Legion i only had players i had no chance against. On Ghostface i got decent players so i played Ghostface most of the times and i had fun. But now the Matchmaking for me is more unfair than before im currently learning how to play Oni and i have about 200hrs and i get matched with Survs that have 700hrs+ and i have no chance against them. Most matches i get 1 - 2 max Kills because i only catch the players that fall for my mindgames. MMR for me as a Killer was fair most times.

    Ah so I get it - changing killers has had a reaction on your MMR. That could be the hours thing again?

    It sounds like the "progression" thing that goes across "all survivors" and "all killers" is still there in the background. EG: If you are skilled on the one killer and try a new one, it's matching you up against the same level survivors as your main.

    Does that make sense?

    It really depends.

    As killer (purple) i had full red ranks or i had 1 red 3 brown or 2/2, so overall pretty fair

    While as survivor (purple) i mostly had yellow-brown rank killers, or 3 brown teamates against a red rank killer, so pretty unfair matches.

    Inconsistent - that's the most accurate word for MMR I can think of.

    Sometimes it's really good, sometimes it's okay and sometimes it's terrible.

    I'm on PC. Not sure what to vote for here.

    I found the starting several days - messed up. The last two seemed to be more stable. Like you the ranks were all over the place but in the game did you feel the game play itself was still matching the ranks?

    Was the killer you were playing the one you normally play?


    Hmmm

    Sorry I was option limited.

    Was it this way before the MMR as well? Or previous to the MMR did you feel you had fair games?

    Well i don't play a particular killer, i mean i play the one i feel i will have fun with for this and that challenge ^^ But i think i got higher ranks survivors when playing as a middle tier killer such as Demo, Plague or Pig. While i versed brown ranks when using Spirit or Freddy...

    It was kinda the same but not to the extent it went with MMR. With MMR there were killer matches where I've got legit rank 20s (I'm purple rank) but there were fun matches where survivors felt to be players of my level. Without it I hardly ever got yellow and brown ranks even when I was green.

    As survivor I played all my matches with a friend as a 2-man SWF (I'm red rank and he's green rank) and one match we've got a rank 20 Clown and the next match we got a rank 5 Nurse who was pretty good. Other matches usually weren't that radically different but there were more matches where we got a pretty weak killer and I can say killers we faced felt somewhat weaker than before for the most part.

    Overall when MMR worked - it worked pretty good, but when it didn't - the match was rank 20s against purple-red ranks with their skill clearly representing their ranks.
