Sbmm change

So im not a big fan of the sbmm system, got a bad experience with that and I dont rly want this in game. But I think there is a option. I think the bettet Option is to have the choice to turn the sbmm system on or off. The only problem there are the loading times. With this option, it should be possible to combine the ranked matchmaking with the sbmm, that would be so much better. Of course there are some players, that they want the sbmm and this Change I guess makes everyone happy. Im not the best player in dbd. Im not a good Gamer, but I play a lot with my Friends to have some fun and we play this game for a long time. The sbmm destroys the fun in my opinion. Rly rly dont like that

    I don't think it will be possible to have a system that you can turn on/off for different players - that would also increase queue times greatly.

    The advantage with this system is that, you won't get put with other players outside of your skill level - which is different from the current matchmaking that we have now, which is based only on your rank. So if you want to just have fun in the game with your friends, you will be matched with a killer of your combined skill level - that way, you're not bullying newer players and not getting bullied by more experienced killers.

    The rank based system doesn't do much good now either, it keeps putting yellow killer with red/purple ranked survivor groups. Honestly getting ready to just uninstall because of it. It's not remotely fun, and you don't even get a chance to get any better when the opposition is so high ranked, they just take a giant dump in your cheerios and force you to eat it.

    I dont think being able to turn that on and off would be a good idea because most people would just turn it off LMFAO.

    How will the system actually work when only few players are online?

    right now you have times when you got a 20 min Q and will be matched with people seriously outside your range for the sake of a match.
