Chapter XII : Demise of Matchmaking
Hello people of the fog,
I present to you Chapter XII : Demise of Matchmaking.
The new killer is called 'The Lobby Simulator'. More info soon.
Here's a small teaser :
We will make sure that we kill the game, before any killer kills you.
This is an update to my previous thread : https://forum.deadbydaylight.com/en/discussion/54598/thanks-for-killing-the-matchmaking-again/p1
It's Q&A time
1. How to counter the Lobby Simulator?
You can't. But there exists a counter in a parallel universe. If you have studied the Theory of Relativity, you will understand. Time is the fourth dimension. So if you could bend time in a way, that it could run faster, you'll be able to counter our new killer.
2. What about the lore?
The wait time is so huge that we didn't think it needed a lore. We wanted to give survivors a new objective while they wait at the lobby screen. It's called 'Make Your Own Lore'.
3. How long did it take you to create this new killer?
Three months ago, we were ready with this chapter, but somewhere it felt lacking. So we worked harder on it, made sure that it worked as we intended.
4. What's next?
Time is not an escape.

This Killer comes with 3 unique perks :
We're Gonna Wait Forever : Each time a survivor hits 'Find Match', Lobby Simulator will come to life. Once active, players will have to wait 15 / 30 / 90 minutes to get into a match.

Hex : No One Escapes Bad Ping
This Hex roots its power on hope. This perk becomes active when the survivors get into a killer lobby. When active, the longer the survivor waited to join, the worst the ping for each tier. Survivors will face the killer with 300/700/1100 ping.

Infectious Disconnect :
The cries of Bad Ping make your heart leap. As soon as the first survivor disconnects, remaining survivors disconnect as the tiers of this perk. For every tier, 1/2/3 survivor disconnect.

Wait for the addons. This Killer's Ultra-rare addon will be the most over-powered addon in the history of Dead By Daylight.
Iridescent Infinite Loading :
A black screen with white tally marks appears from the fog. Makes the player wait for Infinity. Death is guaranteed.

More details on the Killer's power and other addons soon.

I thought the problem with the matchmaking was the rank disparity. The fact that high rank killers can now easily go against low ranks if their lobby isn't filled within the first few seconds.

Only if you ever get matched.

You got that last night or today?... Not sure if they reverted it back to the new MM from the old MM last night.
Looks like the old MM... That one for me has always worked great for me.

Not gonna lie, perks and addons are funny af.
I am sorry it is happening to you but I feel like one of the main problems for matchmaking is that people simply don't want to play killers on consoles.
I wouldn't play killers on consoles as well. Even one mistake can turn the game and because of bad fps etc. + controllers make it hard. It shouldn't be really difficult to play as a survivor because of third person view.

This is right now

Possible. But it isn't like there are no killers at all. The developers have the data. They know how many people are playing and what role they are playing.

Currently, the old matchmaking is active. You should not have any problems finding matches as solo surv in green ranks on PS4. If it takes longer than 2-3 minutes, something with the search got bugged. Stop the search and start another one.
That being said, yes, the old matchmaking doesn't work for everyone. It's back to longer wait times for SWF; and highrank killers don't get matches anymore since there aren't enough highrank survs (because of the new pipping system).
At least we don't have constant high ping lobbies anymore. I hope the devs can finish reworking the algorithm soon.

Both funny and relatable. Nice.

You forgot to include the shiny new Disconnect perk :P

I find lobbies almost instantly as killer and survivor.

This video is barely 18 hours old, I uploaded it right away. I have tried doing what you have suggested. But it's not just quick enough. Wait queues are terrible.

Are you talking about Infectious Disconnect? If so, it already exists.

Nerf Infectious Disconnect!!! The Perk is OP!

It seems this chapter brought about the Demise Of The Faithful player base
1 -
Streamers who play high-ranked killers had to use their alternate accounts to be able to get games. When you can't get a game as killer, you can't even derank - you're trapped at rank 1, unable to play the game.

Well you would have to pay me that I play killer on PS4 tbh^^

Good one. I painfully admit that it did.

I'm a quantum being. I don't fear time because it doesn't exist.

The people are speaking up, Bhvr. When will you?

I like the new killer.
It's like all the other killers, he actually can't do #########.
1 -
It's funny because it's true! ....sadly
2 -
He, infact, does a lot. It eats away the time you've left to live by making you wait. This is the realist killer we've produced so far.

And it's pretty dark out there.

To pay tribute to our most popular chapter, we've decided to rename some perks.
Borrowed Time will be henceforth known as Harrowed Time. More perks to get their names changed. Open to suggestions.

PATCH NOTES :
PATCH 2.X.Y.NOBODYCARES
Here comes the bug fixes and mini balance update :
Made it impossible for players to join a lobby instantly, who were still able to sneak into a lobby despite 'You're Gonna Wait Forever' being active.
Made it possible to activate the perk 'Infectious Disconnect' even before players got into a match. Now Infectious Disconnect works like Infectious Dodge, if one player dodges the lobby, the remaining players dodge too.
Brought back the OP Clown Belly Jiggle. It now defies the laws of physics.
See you in the fog, while you wait.
