I am rank 19 and my girlfriend is rank 14
How is matchmaking going to work with our rank difference ? Will we get matches with killers closer on her rank or mine ? I wonder this because new to this game and suck a lot xd

Theoretically it should take the median value of your to ranks. So 19+14 = 33 / 2 = 16.5.
Assuming the two other survivors will be rank 16 and rank 17 the killer should also be around 16.
That's the theory! :D
Practically you'll just get whatever killer is available to shorten the waiting time since there's a killer shortage and match making in this game is practically non-existent anyways.

Average/Mean, not median.

What is reddit ?

That's due to the aforementioned killer shortage, I assume. There are way more survivors playing this game than killers so survivors get the killer that's available within a certain skill range. The longer you wait, the more the skill range increases. Since you're occupying 2 slots out of 4 your waiting times should logically increase because it's harder to find a match with 2 fixed slots available.
Well that and the match making in this game is reaaaaally bad, as I've mentioned before. They're currently working on an MMR system which hopefully will improve this issue.

Already, this wins the award for best discussion title of 2021.

Wait is there no MMR in this game ? What the hell. Is rank conditions are really hard then ?
0 -
MMR is being worked on and they do tests now and again but we do not know when it will be fully implemented. Could be this year, next year or a month before they shut the game down for good. You never know with bhvr.

It's where Legion originated from.
99% of all people on Reddit own the Legion DLC.

Nope, there is no MMR yet, after 5 years of being released which is really mind-boggling.
As I've said though - they're working on it but there is no release date yet. Could still take some time...
The only thing you can do is to "git gud" in this game and ignore ranks altogether. There literally is no meaning behind ranks. There are more than enough red rank players who can't play the game at all and others are literal gods of destruction in this game.
Just try to enjoy the game, try to improve and eventually you will climb in ranks but don't give ranks any more value than they actually have which is basically none.

They changed it to make it match with the highest rank (in theory) so it should use the Rank 14 to matchmake, +/- 6 ranks.

Sorry but i am not native english speaker and i searched “ reddit “. Its forum i guess and nobody knows it in my country
0 -
When did they change that? But +-6 ranks basically more than half of the whole possible range in this scenario anyways, lol.
0 -
Really? Reddit is the biggest internet forum in existence as of yet. Where are you from if I might ask?
2 -
It was around the Stranger Things dlc Release iirc, and it bricked the entire system lol. Not that it worked before the change either

And you're not using reddit in Turkey? Really interesting. Well, different nations different habits I suppose.
2 -
No i am not using it. I am sure some people know and using it in Turkey but my relatives don't use it i am sure. We have called ''Ekşi Sözlük'' it means ''sour dictionary''. We share our opinions in there and talking agendas,politics,news etc...

It will be super random just like all matchmaking in this game.
0 -
Wait did a mod get baited and change the title? Lol
0 -
Or they saw it as violating the "don't make light out of a serious issue" rule :/
3 -
Oh...yeah probably. Still got baited though so whos the real winner.
