Give us a "For Fun" Game Mode

I just wanted to throw this out there- the idea of splitting out the current (and only) mode into a For Fun mode and a Ranked Mode.

The main reason I wanted to throw this out there is because I think its honestly really bad game design to make it so that the only possible public mode you can play be a SBMM Ranked mode. This makes it so that you really get matched with try-hards and toxic killers. A For Fun mode would help separate the competitive players with the ones who just wanna mess around in DBD. You don't have to worry about depipping... pipping... getting matched against OP killers/survivors who just want to win as fast as possible and will do everything possible in order to win.

Heck, if you had a For Fun game mode, you could throw Perk Randomization on top of it in order to make things even more fun.

    • Separating the queues splits the playerbase and results in longer matchmaking times for everyone.
    • There's no way to stop people from try-harding in a casual mode. DbD mobile has a separate ranked and casual queue and you still encounter survivors bringing multiple BNPs, and killers facecamping their first hook in a casual match.
    • Separating the queues would take up unnecessary development time that would be better spent elsewhere.

    Overall this would be a net negative. I'm all for a perk randomiser though.

    Whenever the devs get around to releasing the Killer bots for custom matches, there would be that mode to play. Idk when that will come about though...
