Why won't the Devs respond to the rank bug?
The only thing I've seen the developers say is that in 4.5.2 there's a fix for some visual bug that shows players being higher rank than they actually are or whatever. Nothing about the fact that people are losing pips after safety pipping, sometimes losing a pip after gaining a pip and even losing a pip from a game not starting due to someone disconnecting. Also there's the issue with the missing unbroken emblems.
Maybe I've overlooked it but I've seen nothing about this on the patch notes or on the twitter account. Why is this bug which is leaving a bad taste in everyone's mouth not their top priority right now? Why are they not even bothering to address it?

It was addressed.

Okay so what about the losing of pips from a game that never started and the rest of the ranking nonsense?

Many games have stuff like this fixed within like 72 hours, DBD you have to wait 2 - 7 weeks.
I get things take time but something must be really wrong with this games code, for it to take so much longer in DBD than literally almost every other online game that exists.

I actually lost 2 pips in this screen shot, it wasn't a visual bug. I've had multiple matches now where I've completed gens, safe unhooks, totems, chases, escaped and I lose 2 pips. They need to look into this issue further instead of just writing it off as a visual bug.

This isn't a visual bug this is just a complete and utter mess it's just not fun playing a game to derank for no apparent reason

Agreed. I thought the same on the killer side.
I have seen the devout emblem show silver with 10 hooks and 3k when at Rank 5, and then be a -1 depip.
That's just wrong. It should have been iri or at least gold, which means their 'bug' description is wrong or at best, incomplete.

Not a visual bug. You get killer adepts taken off you from this bug, so it is more than just visual. Unfortunately this problably means the bug will not be fixed in the next patch.

Yeah.. I was confused when they talked about it being a visual bug in the update post.. It's definitely not a visual bug, literally nobody can get past rank 3 anymore.

Why don't they just clean up the code? I know it is possible because I remember that DBD mobile was built from the ground up. Surely a company with 600+ employees working on their only successful game and makes about 118$ million a year can do just that.

DBD is notorious for it's foundational code being a spaghetti mess so short of basically remaking the game from the ground up....
Which honestly I would be all for, but it is not going to happen because they can just keep milking money out of it as is easier....
