Rank 9 going against rank 1s ? Pretty good job so far

Hope this mmr fixes everything! Because I’m sure it won’t the whole reason low rank killers are getting matched against high rank survivors is because of the lack of high rank killers, how do you think an mmr is supposed to work? There’s gonna be way more survivors with a high score than killers with a Even score, truth is that a mmr isn’t gonna fix #########, maybe they should look at WHY the majority of the game doesn’t want to play killer.

    I'm currently rank 7 and I keep getting rank 1s swf and I'm ######### tired of that crap

    It won’t sadly, there’s still gonna be survivors with high rating and not enough killers to keep up with that rating

    Iirc its dynamic mmr, so no side will outrace the other. You gain less and lose more against lowerranked opponents. So ideally, if you have an average mmr among killers, you will face average mmr survivors. A top10% rated killer will face the top10% rated survivors.

    But it depends on their system, mmr could inflate later on.

    Rank 2 survivor and I have been getting rank 14 - 20 teammates and killers all day. How is this acceptable?

    There are more survivors than there are Killer meaning;

    • Balance the game in Survivors favor, and do not balance around SWF because the game is more fun for the bigger crowd that way. More fun for SWF = more money.
    • Make killer challenges to unlock important lore aspects to the game, this will make people play killer - even though it's not fun, or balanced.
    • Give free cosmetics easier to earn by playing Killer challenges, this will make people play killer - even though it's not fun, or balanced.
    • Make Killer dailies more likely,  this will make people play killer - even though it's not fun, or balanced.
    • Since Killer is not fun or balanced, it is hard to have many high ranking killers. Expand the area that Killer's can be ranked against so that low rank killers can face high rank survivors. This makes it so that even in high ranks, survivors continue to get into games, and continue having fun.

    The dev's would have us believe most people "play both", or most people "play solo", but anyone with common sense know that any people playing "solo" are simply trying to rank up / farm bp on their own time, and the people who "play both" are just doing dailies/challeges. We even seen after the ruin changes, many people who did play Killer primarily - straight up and leave the game or start to primarily play Survivor. I know I certainly did.

    Sad to say, but that isn't the biggest discrepancy in ranks that I have seen. You can have mid to high teens going against red and purple ranks. It's, unfortunately, far too common. Hopefully the MM update will be an improvement. But with them hiding the ranks, we will never know.

    I tired continuing playing killer after the Ruin nerf. It was fine for the first couple of days, then it devolved into gen-rush central with ######### maps after ######### maps. I'll stick to survivor.

    Going to an MMR that nobody can see will not fix the disparity in the killer v. Survivor population. This MMR is akin to a placebo. Even if killer population miraculously grows look at the plethora of bugs, sorry dedicated servers, and seemingly no clue about balance and ask yourself if these devs can make a serviceable MMR system for a game that has random tiles/skills/perks etc... It won’t solve a thing. Look into SWF, killer population, balance maps.

    Don't worry. After their MMR update, everyone is the same rank. By MMR update I mean when they add this single line of code and call it a day.

    Should it really take 3 months (and counting) for this to be fixed? The longer they leave it, the more players they will lose.

    Sorry to say, but the dailies are always more of what you play less. Literally to encourage people to play different roles.

  • NullEXE
    NullEXE Member Posts: 1,632

    Well thats odd. I mostly play killer and only get a survivor daily once a month if I'm lucky. Good try though. Let me see what the players know about the liklihood of certain dailies appearing than others. Oh looks like we have yet to record any official information from behaviour.

    So sOrRy To SaY I'm calling you on your BS

    It's also getting pretty boring to go against r15 killers while being r1.

    I know what you mean. There is a difference between Claudette and Blendette mains.

  • Carpemortum

    You can say you call me on bs all you like, but that's how it works. 🤷‍♀️

    I play 60/40 survivor, and every 2/3 quests are killer.

    Without fail.

    So, if you can prove that its 100% false, please do.

    Lol "prove that it's false". That's not how things work darling. My proof is that there is no proof it's real. That's why it's false. The whole point of proving something is real is by providing proof - and you havn't.

    Well, since you refuse to actually try and prove your shoddy argument, heres TWO mods talking about it a year ago.

    Also, to your "oh so witty" response. Lack of proof is not disproof. Its apparent you dont understand the scientific community or process at all.

    You have no evidence to support your anecdotal theory, I did. You said "nuh uh", so I asked for your proof. To which you had none, except a snippy response.

    So chew on these pics for a bit. They literally state what I did, and had a mod confirm a few posts later.

    Heres the link, inb4: it didnt happen/ nice edit.

    Nice try though hon, you really put forth the effort to do whatever you could to prove your argument yet do no work to ACTUALLY prove it.

    There is just so many more people playing survivor right now. It's pretty easy is to pip as survivor. Even an average survivor will make into purple ranks pretty quickly after rank reset. A lot of killers are stuck around 8 because it's hard to pip consistently going against really good red rank survivors. I think this is the real issue with MM. Just not enough killers to balance MM around.

    I don't know if you know this, but Mods don't actually have any say, or work in the actual development of the game. Which is why they say things like "if I remember correctly" or "it could be this". They are just highly regarded community members that don't work for the company. Unlike the Community Dev's who do work for the company.

    But you did finally come with some form of "proof", albeit not any proof that isn't just further observations, and guesses. At the same time your aparent proof, also is them explicitedly agreeing with my point of getting more Killer dailies than survivor - even if it's based on what you play less. Overall I play survivor less, but yet since the ruin rework I have been regularly getting more killer daily's for killers I do and don't play. I have been playing survivor more, but I spend most of my time playing Killer and farming BP with killer.

    Boy do you probably feel so tough right now 😘. It just really sucks when the "proof" you provide isn't very meritable, and further strengthens the side your trying to debate against.

    I guess it was due to you quoting me from a different thread that it brought me here? Either way, now that Killer lobbies are so much faster (very fast after 4pm my time) I play killer more. Been working on finishing out some of the achievements. I can say that my dailies are still killer sided, but I do get more survivor dailies it seems. I've not paid attention enough to give an accurate ratio, but I can state that playing killer more has brought me more survivor dailies than I was getting in the past.

    Maybe that can help the debate?
