mmr is a meme

As killer, i either keep heavily underperforming every match (3 or 4 escape, over and over and over and over and over) and after a lot of trash matches i just stomp 4 newbies that dont know how to play for a magic reason. What is going on, is anyone able to still enjoy playing killer? when i hop on survivor all i face is campers and tunnelers, is this where this game is going? only frustration lately

    Its the same for me I get stomped l I've 5 games in a row then play one game of baby's that can't find gens and back to been stomped. Now I'm no expert but I'm pretty sure thats not how mmr is supposed to work. I've had about 4 matches that I would call good meaning they could of ended up either way.

    I finally got low level players today, after being stomped on for the last few days.

    I decided to let them live but a Meg was too scared to go near the 2 on the ground to heal them, one dc'd when I first downed her near the beginning.

    I even moved to the other side of the map but they got close to bleeding out so I had to hook them. Meg was hiding very close to the hook so I downed her and gave her hatch.

    Hopefully the matches balance out soon.

    I find them balanced better with the new system versus it's predecessor. As for the Meg I would have hooked her for not helping the other survivors. If I noticed her doing it earlier in the match she may have been the only one I sacrificed and I would have let the others go.

    I think she was new. We have all been there, our first week of hiding at the first sound of a terror radius lol.

    I felt sorry for her tbh.

    Agree. It's stomp or be stomped. Not really close or balanced games majority of times.


    I main survivor. What I have noticed is a drastic increase of tunneler peoxycampers. And when we are not facing a tunneler, survs usually reward him with an insane rush on gens and repairing injured.


    I'm enjoying much less the game since MMR. I wish there would another game mode focused on fun, chase, interaction and not so sweaty.

    The final test of MMR went well. Live MMR is a joke.

    It isn't MMR that is a meme at this point, it's BHVR.

    I know this isn't how everybody experiences it, but mines been excellent with tough opponents, and a lot of exciting and tense trials!

    So this is where I'm confused: The reactions have been mixed, and whilst I believe some of the complaints is down to those players realising they are not as good as they think they were or just plain sulky, I do also believe some when they say it's not making much sense in sudden jumps in difficulty, or they're doing the right things but something isn't quite right.

    One reason could be a very human one which is unpredictability. I've had sessions where I'm smashing swf teams, and others where I'm trying to figure out how I played so terriblt against people I know I could beat! I've played as survivor when I am a mind-gaming God, and others where my escape attempt ends quickly with me running into a tree or trying to quiet vault with the killer about 3 metres behind me. That element of unknowing and lacking consistency may account for some.

    It could also be the server or little bugs in the system that distort it. Or maybe even a lack of players as close to the MMR rating someone is at. It's not perfect, but when I look back to the absolute barminess of the original ranking system, this feels like it's going in the right direction. It's just not rigid enough to account for all possibilities needed for a true SBMM.

    Since update I have been playing just survivors. But i m meeting only sweaty Blights and Nurses. If i m lucky i meet another killer but u have to be lucky. And in most of games is some Tunnel or Camp ...

    Today i Took break from DBD and i decided to play in nights. 4 games - 2 nurses and 2 blights.
