When bad survivors can be rank 2 it's a issue. Nerf altruism and fix the bugs.
Honestly I dont think I'll support this game much longer if these issues are going untreated. Having survivors that do nothing but selfcare and go for saves never once touching a gen and getting to that rank is stupid. Stop balancing and allowing bad survivors to get to rank. If this 5th year anniversary isn't a good license and we dont get a map I'm done, I have supported you since console release but this game just gets worse and worse from bugs, maps, killers, ranking and balance... so fix it or I'll leave like most vet players are.

Ranks don't and here soon won't matter

It dont matter because you can be terrible and know nothing and still hit rank 2 which is my issue. I shouldn't do multiple min chases and not a gen pop. I shouldn't run kindred and have multiple people get off gens to save me ESPECIALLY when ruin is active. It's not fun. Nor is it fun never to get a new map, have bugs left in the game etc.

Play SWF or deal with it. SOLO is a hellhole.

No like, its literally gonna be useless here soon, so why should devs change something they won't need to use at all for Matchmaking?
2 -
Uninstall then. If a game isn't playable alone then the games #########. Simple as, such a shame really I love my horror but not when it's bad. Wasted on these devs

Well mmr then, if that's still based on altruism then you'll get the same damn issue using ranks or a hidden matchmaking. Bad players shouldn't get to high skill positions. Not everyone has to be great but when it's just filled with people who farm and dont do the only objective it's a flop.

No I believe its based on everything you do in the trial, with escaping being the most impacting
Emblems and rank won't mean anything

Tbh swf is one of the reasons that there are bad survivors in red rank. Once they dont get spoonfed what to do they become useless.

Yes that's mmr, while it will be everything you do in the trial I dont want say players who do alot of healing and unhooking to reach the same level as people who understand tiles, loops and do the objectives. I have said this in many other posts. YOU DONT NEED TO BE AMAZING, but when people dont do gens and tend to just trade hooks etc. Its an issue.

Nerf altruism?
Thats a new one.

Good for killer side or? It wouldn't be even less fun to play killer, if those people would be decent.

Of course its good for them but I dont enjoy onesided games. I want to win because I played good not because my opponent isnt even a challenge.

IT won't use the emblem system. It uses it's own metrics.

Hook rescues and heals will be included in that. If those are considered a major part of it then the same issues will occur. No matter whether its mmr, ranking emblems etc. Just trading hooks and healing shouldn't get you to the top

The point is to change the amount and what counts and how much because the current system is very bad.
The point of the MMR is literally to fix the thing you are complaining about so....yeah...I think it will matter.
(This is all assuming it goes well and they don't like...muck it up as bhvr is want to do)

If you don't do gens and 3 people are sacrificed, I don't think your MMR is gonna go up

I have more matches fail because none of the other survivors are at all altruistic than matches fail due to too much altruism. You cannot control how others play - nor should your experiences be used in some way to prove that one thing exists over another. Your "evidence" is anecdotal and does not reflect the experiences of the thousands of people who play. If you do not like the skill levels at which randoms play - there is an option to play with others who you have pre-selected based on their worthiness to play a game with you.

The issue is boosted swf players. Being in voice chat with your buddies makes this game 10x easier.

I sadly have to agree. The way ranking works is pretty busted. I mean you hear it time and time again from so many people that rank means very little in this game, and thats because of how easy it is to rank up. Too many red ranks that really should not be red ranks at all. There's a reason why so many people rush for saves and heals w/o ever touching a gen and thats because you get the most points from it and its a lot easier/faster to get. I've played with so many bad red rank survivors who suck in chases, don't do gens, etc.
Legit had a match yesterday versus Blight who kept downing this 1 teammate of mine who was rank 2 because they couldn't stay up to save their life. They went down at least 4 times in the end-game phase while another was on hook. Everytime I or the Bill would save them, they'd just go down immediately again. The one person on hook died. She ended up getting out with 17k versus me and the other teammate getting out with 24/25k. Then proceeds to give the killer crap about how he played despite the killer finishing with 22k.
Another match, I was against Leatherface and he caught someone who then got hooked in basement. Next teammate decides to go save. Gets caught and hooked in basement. 3rd teammate goes to unhook, gets caught and hooked in basement. All the while I'm on the other side of the map (with kindred) doing the only gen. Guess how that game ended? These were all red rank players too, lol.
The way this game rewards you with pips is awful. And red ranks should know how to deal with chases, know when to go for unhooks as well as when to do bones/gens. But a lot of people get boosted by SWF, are not good loopers/runners and just generally cater the easiest strat for points which is altruism. Also lack game sense.
MMR will help (at least the quality of my teammates was significantly better during the 24hr test period) but this games been out for YEARS. And the ranking system has always been absolutely garbage. Allows people to grab ranks they really shouldn't have/belong in.

Just wait for the MMR and hope that it is working.

In my experience(Survivor main, solo most of the time)the opposite is actually the case.
