Has anyone else noticed weird lobbies (rank-wise)?
I'm rank 3 right now and I had one lobby with a rank 18 and another one with a rank 12. Has anyone experienced this and is it because no one's on or a glitch with matchmaking?

I'm noticing instant lobbies into red ping at the moment.

And the few matches that I had decent ping on; they were both sides of the spectrum. Rank 15s to Rank 1s (ironically, we got infinite loading screens with every red rank). Something effed up.

Yes, had a match earlier where it was me and another in the green ranks, the other two were about 15. The killer unfortunately was a 20. Have seen a lot of red ranks going against new killers as well. Never been this bad before.0

Same here, had a match where surv were from rank 18 to 2, and I could tell they weren't SWF based on how they were playing, I was rank 8. Not sure why it's happening, but I haven't had any issues with lag.

Like the killer is the highest (lowest?) and far above everyone else. Went against a rank 18 for goodness sake and the killers have been green regularly.
I wonder if something is going on with the ranks. New bug?

I am seeing this, exactly. Every match I've had today has had usually at minimum 3 very low rank players, and I've been at R1 killer for a while. This isn't fun for anyone.

It doesn't make a huge difference either way, as you can see. But it can't be fun for the newer players. (This was my next match, and they were very clearly in voice comms too)

Same here. All I’ve had nothing but rank 20-18 killers and I’m red ranks. It’s getting to a point where I don’t want to play the game anymore as it’s just not challenging going up against people who aren’t as closely ranked as me who actually play the game instead of standing in the corner doing nothing or the killer never finds you.
I would love to know whats what’s going on all of a sudden.0 -
I have noticed weird lobbies but not rank wise. I live in Europe and a lot of chinese or koreans are recently coming to my lobby with 250+ ping. Never happened to me before.0

Same. Im rank 1 survivor. Normally I get rank 1-3 killers but atm I get rank 18-15 killers. And I queue solo atm... feels very weird.
Edit: games are very unbalanced. last game was vs a new player with 6 hours playtime and he almost hittet no one the entire game vs rank 1, 5, 4 and 6.

Because behavior know that rank is not a matter,because everyone is complaining about it0

Been seeing the same thing aswell. Had two games with rank 20 killers while being at Rank 1 myself. In addition to that i live in the Midwest US. I should be getting nothing but Canadians and other Americans but instead i an queuing up in high ping lobbies with people from Europe and the Middle east.

@Manito You get unskilled players at every rank, but you typically get less of them at the higher ranks and they typically have an idea of what they're doing. I don't take joy in stomping newbies. It makes me feel like a bully.
@EntityDispleased Are you on Console or PC? I've heard the matchmaking was very poor on Console. Hopefully it gets fixed soon.
@Master I know they were throwing around the idea of expanding the ranks so that people can encounter more variety, though all the way up to rank 15~20 is a bit much.

That a rank 18 killer can verse three rank 1s queueing with a rank 20 survivor was an intended result already, why would they try to increase that even further?

It's great - haven't had to wait longer than 3 minutes for a game

@Master I thought they were gonna limit the people you can find to colors (all the red ranks or red and purple together) or something like that. I really hope they don't intend to just group everyone together. Newbie ranks are good for new players just starting out on the game.
@EntityDispleased That isn't good.
I'm sorry to hear that. Have you checked your Download Region to make sure it's correct? It can be found through Settings -> Downloads.0
