Worst matchmaking I've ever experienced

Is anyone else having terrible matchmaking tonight? I know it's always wonky, but I'm a rank 12 and have faced nothing but red and purple ranks. I've been playing about four hours and I've had ONE game that was mostly on rank. I have some screenshots. There were a few games I forgot to screenshot, but trust they were ALL like this. It's not even this bad at rank reset. ( Edit: censored names)

    Shhhh, blot out their names or you'll be banned for "naming and shaming"

    But yes, terrible matchmaking is a massive problem that has yet to be fixed.

    Longer queue times = Worse matchmaking. If you are in EU killer queue usually get better around evening.

  • I usually have a couple purple/red, a couple green/yellow. Maybe I get one game full of purple/red. Very rarely do I meet a full red team. Tonight I met a full red team at least twice, and in only one game did i see any greens. I have never had it be this brutal. I thought something may be going on.

    Bad matchmaking for you, good matchmaking for survivors. Doing pretty good as always. The Devs thew balance out the window to favor SWF not having to wait longer than they actually should for a match and just place them against any killer.

    I envy you right now. At red ranks as killer I exclusively get greens and purples in UK/EU at peak times. Games are too easy and its becoming stagnant.

    I assume its just there aren't enough red rank killers for the sheer number of survivor son at peak times, but it doesn't explain stuff like this.

    This. During the day the q times for survivor are instant, and matchmaking is balanced. At night, q times for survivor take from 5 to 10 minutes and matchmaking is a mess. I'm rank 1-2 right now, and would get rank 7-10 killers and even rak 15-20 team mates. Killer q at night is instant but matchmaking isn't good either.
