Matchmaking is Rough

This has been almost all my matches my entire night. It's completely unplayable at this point for me. Anyone else having such a drastic rank gap in their matches very recently? Up until now the matchmaking had been steadily getting better.

    I've been having the same problem. Matchmaking is so broken it's ridiculous, and frankly the game is so stressful right now that I'm considering uninstalling it. The Halloween thing is honestly the only reason I'm playing and that really isn't enough to counteract the sheer frustration of getting stomped by SWF teams that are literally 12 ranks higher than me. It's not fun. Killers are leaving the game because they are tired of toxic BS from SWF groups that think bullying killers that are clearly lower rank than them is entertaining, and I don't blame them at all. I am probably right behind them. 🤷

    This is one of the many reasons I can only play killer during the day. Early on it seems way more relaxed on both sides, but it's like, the second the moon rises, the sweats come out in force. The game just becomes so boring with SWF basically blowing gens out of the game faster than you can down people, and killers bringing their tryhard builds and tunnel vision. I had to leave the game for a while after the last rift because of it, and I'm pretty close to doing it again honestly. I love to play killer but it's just not worth the crap we have to deal with every match. I just wish that all these players who act this way would realise, they wouldn't get that match if it wasn't for players like me willing to tolerate their BS.

    Try turning off crossplay, my matches have been better in terms of rank since I did.
