SBMM Feedback
The matches played so far feel extremely frustrating and negative. It felt like a pointless experience not knowing what changes the score, and thus any little thing could be lowering or raising it.
I am unsure as to what exactly my dislike is with this, but I believe its the lack of something to blame clearly mismatched survivors with killer. Before it was easily explainable by the ranks provided in the post game screen, as to why my teammates or opponents played the way they did. Now there is none of that and it feeds back into having irritable or downright aggravating matches which make me want to stop playing.

I have had nothing but games full of survivors with Prove thyself, Deadhard, and toolboxes, flashlights, and Keys. I dodge lobby's for hours to find something without any of the above, and no it's always Prove thyself gen rush, tbag at exit. I run any form of perk to stop gen rush? Corrupt intervention, they hide or just rush a gen while I chase one guy, even if it's not for long. Hex ruin breaks at the start of the game. I cant hook anyone to use pop cause by the time I do 3 gens are done. Thanat is a joke. Dying light is a bigger joke. I genuinely have had to simply camp to get anything done the past couple games. I hate SBMM with a passion.

Oh yeah and not to mention that survivors love to do this thing where they switch survivors to sneak a key in and I have to shut the game down to avoid that. Killers cant switch characters, but survivors can? Not everyone has every perk on every survivor, let alone every item and addon, so it's about as much of a good reason to lock survivors as well as killers when searching for a match, not just killers.

I'm getting really bad rubberbanding and desync since the update. Is this happening to anyone else?

Do this system put the same type of players together?
If do, pleast don't. I played survivor this noon, I met 5 rookie killers, and I'm R11.
I want to play with the stronger killer player.
If I always meet the same type killer players, I will feel very very boring.
Please keep the multiplicity of this game, I love it.

I can't talk for survivors, because we played really mixed ranks / skill, so that is always hard for any match-making.
But I played a lot as killer and I had only one easy game with my mains, because 1 survivor DC when got downed fast. I have to play almost every game around 3-gen and overall tryhard a lot with perks and play-style. I don't mind it for few games, but it is really tiring to focus all the time, because I know that any mistake will cost me that game.
On other hand it was really nice that I could play worse killers like trapper / pig and I faced way worse players because of it. Problem is that, I still can play as M1 killer, so I killed them usually with 3-4 gens left, so that experience probably wasn't good for them.

This game is dead if they implement this ######### mmr. I have never hated this game more than I have right now.
Ive played now 15 matches. I play solo survivor because queues for killer takes too long. Ive literally lost 10 pips in those 15 matches. Its been only a miserable experience. Every game its a camp and tunnel. Every SINGLE ######### GAME more than half of the team is dying on first ######### hook. Ive had to use borrowed time and ds and it still doesnt help at all. The camp is so real that even with borrowed time im getting unsafe hook rescues. Increase the ######### time of borrowed time man. Why the ######### am i even using that ######### perk if I get unsafe hook rescues anyways??
Its also funny these killers play like this because 13 out of those 15 killers use ruin, undying and pop. Then random 4th perk. Usually tinkerer or bbq. They are using these insane gen perks and still camp every hook.
The average points survivors are getting in my games are like 7k points.
I dont even want to play this game anymore. Youd think my mmr would get lower when im having ######### games like this but nah it just continues the same ######### over and over and over again.

I doubt any kilelr is using ruin, undying and pop, you have ruin, undying or ruin, pop. Based on what you say, you are not using off meta perks neither, so you have no right to complain.
Killers play more sweaty now, because games are way harder for them wtih SBMM, when they play their mains at least.
It is not problem for decent SWF, but killers don't know if they face SWF or solo players, so they just go full try-hard every game.
but if average points survivors are getting in your games are like 7k points, then you suck. It can happen to one survivor, who gets camped first, not multiple survivors.

Haven't played much survivor but so far my experience with killer has been pretty good, most of the survivors are providing some challenge and dont get pub stomped easily

Well they are using those three perks then I forgot corrupt as well. Ive written all the killer perks and killers I go against in a document so... They use pop for when undying and ruin gets cleansed..
And if we suck so much then why are we going against these kinds of killers??
and im only using ds and borrowed time because im "forced" to. I dont even like using those perks. Borrowed is useless though since every single time I save someone being camped I get an unsafe hook rescue anyways. Might as well farm them without borrowed. Id like to use some chill perks like i did before but nah then I just get tunneled out of the match when it just starts.
Also i forgot to add that half of the killers brought map offerings to help them even more. Hawkins, lerys, midwich, rpd and authohaven. All the indoor maps were chosen by killers with undying-ruin so its harder to find their ruin. The authohaven was picked by a basement camping huntress. Looks like now ill have to bring some survivor sided maps each match :)
It might also just be like this on EU server. Im gonna have to use vpn now to play on US server and see if the killers there are less #########.

I am from EU and I have never seen this.
and killers are "forced" too, most killers have big problems to win without slow-down perks against decent survivors.
Killers don't have many fun perks anyway.
Those maps are not that good for killers (depends on killer), so it doesn't change much, just because it is from map offering. I would understand, if they used offering for Saloon. Who the hell wants to go on rpd?
Corrupt, Ruin, Undying, Pop is huge overkill and it is not really good. Those killers don't have any detection... This shouldn't be hard to win against, they will have just pop late game.
How is BT not save unhook? Killer ignores you and waits 12 seconds on survivor every time? Then body-block him, so unhooked survivor has chance to escape.
Or they are bad so much, they get downed even with BT? Maybe try to join global dbd discord and play with other survivors.
I agree that soloQ is terrible experience, but that is not really fault of SBMM. Killers had to adapt to SWF and power-level of SWF and soloQ is just completely different game.
It's not that hard normally, because games are random, so killer can get away with worse build and just play for fun, but they have hard games with SBMM and play based on it.

well then if im playing solo q then i most certainly shouldnt be facing killers like this and please stop talking out of your ass its so frustrating man.

This has been my experience as well. I dislike MMR and hope they stop.

Well, it is very similar place where your opinions come from, so you should be used to it...
Based on what you say, you suck as survivor and probably never played killer. You don't like SBMM, because you are faced with your skill level and you are not getting carried by others anymore.

On my end the new MM does pretty well, I'm yet to see a single player with less than 2k hours on either side.
The matches are more competitive than fun for most part, though.

If you play killer without perks and stuff for a few days you will derank within SBMM, and games might be fun again?
I played 5 survivor games today I got 3 Hag and one Nurse, one Spirit. I have seen one Hag in 3 months and now it' Hags everywhere? 😮
0 -
Yeah, why not suffer even more and play without perks. I would just go afk Wraith, or farm...

Only advice I can give is keep in mind that you're so good that you are pitted with them. Hopefully the knowledge that you're a good killer can lessen the pain.
