I know part of this is rank reset but the other part is the emblem issue. I went from 10 to 17 in a day. Anyone else?

    Yup rank 2 to rank 8 in two days as survivor, I've been keeping steady as killer though

    I've been hearing a lot of people complain about it, but I'm only staying stuck around Rank 2 instead of being able to get back to Rank 1 (but I wouldn't expect Rank 1 right now... I fr can't deal with chases rn LOL, it feels like I'm back playing survivor on Nintendo Switch DBD again lmaooo)

    I thought something was going on, lol. I went from rank 4 to rank 9 (as survivor)...

    Exactly the same for me. I was rank 4, and went from it to rank 7, then 9 with the reset.

    I dont necessarily care a ton about rank honestly but this is kinda ridiculous lol

    Although I do care being matched up with newer players who are too scared to help teammates

    The game is just trying to move us to the rank where we all belong:

    Rank 21

    I managed to stay in red ranks! Okay I dropped down to 6 for a bit but I'm back up to rank 4.

    From 3 to 8. Loving it. By the end of this week I'm gonna be a total smurf without the new account.

    Just had 4 gens left and a 3k plus DC and gatekeeper says Silver. No wonder I am stuck at rank 4.

    I went from 8 to 15. Even with great runs.

    Unbroken is, ironically, broken.

    Killers are being bigger dicks than usual.

    Hit boxes are allowing mediocre killers to make God hit.

    Good job, Devs. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 You have ruined your own game. You had poor relations with your survivor community, and few who ACTUAL would stick up and speak well of it. You just lost one more. Is it even worth playing anymore? I regret putting so much money into it. Smh

    No hate. Not for *most* of the players. Just a newfound hatred for the system. ✌🏻

    Nope. Only dropped cuz rank reset but my rank has been fine more or less. Actually prior to rank reset I gained 2 ranks for survivor so there's that. Rank 4 to Rank 2.

    Dropped 12 pips before the reset. Making me less altruistic in order to pip - not fun.

    I went from a rank 6 Survivor to a rank 8, then got moved back to a rank 9 with the rank reset and am, at present, teetering on the edge of rank 10. It's very frustrating to me, as I value my rank. Ranking up is impossible. Look at this. What is going on??

    I kept having matches where I was dropping 2 pips when I escaped and should've received 1 pip. I went from red to purple before rank reset and then was pushed to green.

    Even with the emblem bug I've still kept at rank 1. I think the bug may end up moving people down that probably shouldn't have been where they were in the first place given how overly generous the pipping system was.

    I've able to maintain red rank status and gotten back to red rank after the reset.

    It takes much longer to pip up, because with unbroken being broken the only way to actually pip is to escape so you get at least gold unbroken as not escaping results in no unbroken emblem. But you can still black pip off the other 3 emblems.

    Is that an actual bug there, or just a display issue?

    That was a thing since the game started, where it would say 0 or -1, but in reality you did actually get the pip or safety. It was just outputting the wrong number to your screen.

    The Unbroken thing is a problem though. I rarely survive, so getting a bronze or silver in Unbroken helps my ranking. Currently sitting at 8, but it's pretty damn difficult to get a pip right now. Mostly just safety.

    7? Dude, I've been rank 1 and now I'm rank 12. Okay, unbroken emblem is broken, fine, but I wonder how tf do I de-pip if the scale is on +2 or why do I de-pip if someone disconnects.

    I dropped from 4 to 5 with the reset, and then from 5 to 6 due to this stupid Emblem issue.
