I'm a rank 1 killer (2k hrs) getting matched with first time players
Regardless of how the MMR system is supposed to work, this can't happen. I just had survivors complaining that they're facing a rank 1 killer and they're still trying to figure out how to run. It's disingenuous to pretend rank/experience doesn't matter at a certain point. I can take out a lobby of 200 hour survivors without blinking as Nurse. If you've been pre-calibrating, it didn't work. And if it is working, this certainly ain't it.

I'm normally a rank 1 killer with around 2k hours too. However, I haven't played DBD for the past two months and since since the MMR implementation I've been getting the survivors I usually play against at rank 1 (the ones that have thousands of hours in the game).

Dev's have already claimed in other posts Ranks no long matter. The slate is cleansed, like a Hex Totem. It's hardly has been implemented.

This isn't about Ranks though, it's about playtime and experience.
A player with less than 100 hours shouldn't be facing a player with thousands of hours. That's just dumb.
Also whatever metric the MMR is using to measure skill isn't working; I've been getting Red Ranks that Sprint Burst into walls, slam shack pallet down while I'm 10 meters away carrying someone, run in straight lines in the open, and farm while Injured without BT and no Obsession.
I know I'm not as active on DBD as some people, but I play decently often. And if I'm versing Rank 1s they must play often too.
So why isn't MMR matching either of us correctly?
Hasn't it been in the background for months? Haven't the devs said they're satisfied with how it was performing in the background?
Wasn't it specifically designed so that I don't get matched with blind Megheads just because we're both Red Ranks?
The devs definitely know this already, but the MMR needs work.

Looking good.

It's been on xbox for a while. But only a few days on everything else.
I only have stated what the dev's have said about rank not mattering. In other posts all about this issue like this post has. If you clicked on the News section in game. You too would be informed.
Go now. Read into it. 🤷♂️

BTW, have you ever played any multiplayer game when that game was years old and other players were new? That's exactly as it is here. COD Overwatch PUBG. Even Gamg Beasts all multiplayer games no matter the genre have fairly new players up against veteran players. How is this different?

As others have said, experience level matters. What's interesting is that the system does seem to be functioning with some killers but not my main killers. With Nurse and Hag, I'm annihilating first time players repeatedly. With Billy, a killer I rarely play, I'm getting matched up with players I would see under normal circumstances.

That is not what they said. They clearly said those who have been playing for the past few months already have a base MMR that is not the default MMR. The system is clearly not working as intended right now.

Well yeah you did /cry endlessly to the devs till they came running to hold your hand for shorter wait times to be matched against brown rank new players to the detriment of the health, well being and future of your -own- game what did you expect lol. Not too bright I know but is what it is. High rank hand-holding has always been meta.
