When MMR?

Why don't you introduce an MMR system? how much can you mock weak players? I have a red rank and now I die in every match. Thanks for pushing the players away.

    They did and then disabled it, nobody knows when it'll be re enabled again.

    It was way worse when MMR was enabled. As a Rank 1 Killer, I either get all Rank 1's or all Purple Rank Survivors, not ideal but better than getting matched with Rank 15 Survivors.

    Because it didn't work as expected. The rank system also does not work correctly. Why do I become a victim in every match and do not leave the red ranks? I really enjoy playing this game. NO.

    They said they'd give it back eventually, but that's an eternity away.

    U know why u got those rank 15s?

    Because they were probably smurfing, then cried when they faced you. I think mmr was good.

    Smurfs just got some reality and took screenshots and cried.

    Besides, currently green rank killers are facing red rank swfs so only fair if a couple of smurfing swfs have to face equal competition as well.

    I played during that time, and no, there were Rank 20 players with less than 10 hours who legitimately could not hit skillchecks getting matched with Red Ranks with thousands of hours.

    The MMR did not work, and BHVR removed it because it did not work.

    Smurf accounts. Also beginning nof every month, u need to start deranking. Otherwise ur at where suppose to be at.


    Survival rate should only be around 20-25%.


    Unfortunately most survivors are entitled to survive 100% of their games.

    I literally played people who had just gotten the game. They weren't smurfs. I play on Xbox and I can almost guarantee that you don't have 15K gamerscore in a smurf account.

    The teammates are so bad in redranks that you escape maybe 1 out of 10 games (the 1 you actually get decent teammates. I literally had a 5 minute chase today and 2 still died.

    unfortunately i saw this up front i saw someone with 5K hours and another with them at 3K hours end up bullying a person that bought the stranger things chapter special ed of dbd playing demopuppy that bought it two days before. sure wasn't the best killer to start with but hey lets throw them to someone that has 1000 times as many hours as they do! oh that's perfect!

    MMR if you can call it such did nothing but make new killers go against seasoned survivors of vice versa and the DEVS actually said as much. there were times it worked but that was probably a fluke. they removed it as it was an atrocious time as they recieved many negative hits on steam and I'm sure many people tried to get refunds through steam and even if they aren't refunded that does not look good to any game. also during this time it was using a plain text file to say what killer was in the lobby and though that id info got encrypted, the outfit names for the cosmetics, thus it could easily be seen what killer it was. finally about 1 week in to mmr it was fully encrypted so there was no way to see what killer was going against you and thus allow survivors to quickly remove or add perks or switch characters, and the killer was stuck from the moment they clicked search (honestly i understand why at the time but i don't know why it's still locked in with mmr out of the question).

    honestly my own belief which can not be substantiated or proven in what happened is they said they were bringing MMR to the game, and didn't have it anywhere near so they just let the game fly with what ever and thus there was no actual match making at that time other than 4 survivors were paired up with 1 killer. AGAIN, THIS IS A THEORY THAT CAN NEVER BE PROVEN!!!! IT IS NOT WHAT IS SAID TO HAVE HAPPENED!! I do not accuse anything I just am speaking my mind here.

    Honestly I don't think an MMR can be done right for this game in the manner they envisioned it and I can not think of anything to replace what they were saying. so many variables could never be taken into account: 1) SWF involvement, 2) COMMS outside the match, 3) disconnects on either side were never addressed properly, 4) killers that farm, 5) survivors that farm. there are more things but this is easily the 5 top reasons MMR would not be accurate.
