Yet another remove prestige from pre-game lobby thread

It doesn't have any benefit other than judging your opponents/team mates before the match has started. I see survivors dodge low prestige free characters like bill/claudette/meg frequently and when I'm playing my p100 ace I frequently get dodged multiple times in a row while in the lobby. Keep it in the post game, that's fine, I like having that icon shown to the people I played with as a badge of accomplishment, but I'm tired of seeing people dodge lobbies over it, sometimes it gets so bad I have to 6 second swap from a lower prestige character because people just keep dodging my ace over and over.

    I remember I made a post about this when it came out, because I dont like bragging but it seems the reality is people don't like engaging in matches where they perceive a disadvantage. Please bHVR, you really should fix that. Keep it on the post game screen, if you really must have them bragging on the post game screen.

    100% agree, i really dont get why they added it in the first place. They removed surv grades being shown because of lobby dodges and bad vibes, they even removed killer ping being shown because of that, but 5 killers in a row dodging one or two p50+ is completely fine? I legit didn't play a single game on Yui since i got her P100. Now i play low prestige characters so i can get normal games, is that really how its supposed to be? You spend so much time and effort into getting p100, just to not play that character anymore...

    The response from the Q&A didn't feel very promising aswell (for me at least), sounded more like they already considered it once and didn't care, propably think its such a cool feature they wont back down on it.

    And before all the Killer mains come seething in because they want to keep dodging the high prestige lobbys to get easy games... Listen please: There are far above 30 survivors you can play, the only difference would be that people can actually go back to playing their favorite survivor instead of having to hide behind low prestige chars to get normal games.
