Getting placed with people way out of my league

dcwizz

Im a rank 12 killer and consistantly get games where i'm going against rank 7 and lower survivors. Please fix this. I love this game, but its not fun when i get wrecked in a game by people who are clearly our of my league.

Are there any lower ranks in these lobbies. I think in case of swf it takes killer from in between of the ranks of members.

Its called SWF, high ranks team up with lower ranks in order to be able to bully low rank killers like you.

You can avoid this by lobby dodging SWF (Survive with friends). If multiple survivors join into your lobby at the same time, chances are high that they play together and you can consider opening a new lobby to play a normal game.

ive been experimenting with this . it seem the way it works is the person who made the initial group is what it goes by that is why you see 2's in a level 18 match up and 18's in a level 2 match . there is a range of what the matchup looks for so say a 18 might get a rang of 16-20 depending on available players , so if they make the group with friends in the 10-2 range those players will be playing a killer in the 16-20 range .

this is just another thing that is broken about the swf grouping , the developers know about it and we haven't head anything at all , they pretend they don't know at least as far as the information they give out is concerned . the only info ive heard was them supporting swf months ago when they implemented it and talked about how big of a success it was with 70% of all games played being some form of swf .

Since then I haven't heard anything from the developers about it , but the community has voiced up pro and con about it on a daily thread and usualy multiples . ive heard a lot of killers wanting opt outs , survivors complaining how swf only work together and if they are the odd man they are left to die because the 3 man can win just as easy without them . people complaining about the rank imbalance in matchs because of it , the list goes on .

That is not only months away, this was a year ago (maybe even more now), apprently the devs dont give a damn about the situation, so yuo have to use the tools vailable to you (derank or lobbydodge)
