Reset of ranges on the 13th of each month, two days after range 1 ...

Developers must do something about it can not pass this so easy to get to rank 1 and now the queues of killers in rank 1 is hell, I can not play more than killer until the next reset or fix the mathmaking.

I would like there to be a solution soon.

    And it's not even possible to depip to get to lower ranks so you can actually play BECAUSE YOU QUITE LITERALLY CANNOT PLAY THE GAME

    First off be smart. Don't get to rank one within a day or two of rank reset. Purposefuly depip around rank 5-8. Second off they are allready bringing out a new Rank system slowly to see how it works and effects matchmaking.

    Doing something counter-intuitive like purposely de-ranking just to be able to play the game is IMO a sign that something is very wrong with the system.

    Wrong, it's a sign that something is very wrong with the community. It's like playing any game and choose the easy mode.

    I'm referring to the context of de-ranking to avoid reaching a rank where lobby wait times are absurdly long (as is the case with OP). De-ranking so you can go seal clubbing at lower ranks does speak bad of the community, but that's a different discussion IMO.

    That is just a waste of time. 

    1. You have to get into a match to derank. Then you either just let survivors complete gens or just dc. And you have to constantly do this. 

    2. You finally got to the rank you wanted. 
    A) it’s boring because it is not a challenge.
    B) You are back at Rank 1 again. 

    3. If you dc so much there is possibility that you could receive a ban.

    I rather wait in the lobby.

    No its that the system is wrong. Since there is no penalty for de-ranking on purpose people will do it. The system is at fault for allowing such a thing to exist considering nearly every other online game with a rank system has something in place to stop this. This should have been fixed within the first few weeks of DBD's launch.

    It's a shame one has to spend so much time sandbagging and de-ranking just to be able to play this game. People will continue to forcefully de-rank so long as this system remains in place. You can't get games at high ranks, and on Killer if you want to try to get an Adept achievement or try out killers you normally don't play, you have to de-rank to have a chance. Survivor side forcefully de-ranks to bully. These things won't go away until everything receives a total rework. The rank system is what currently sets the bar over any matchmaking fixes they try to implement. The rank system had been in need of a complete overhaul since day one since it's long been obvious that the band-aid treatment isn't working.

    It's not like there's a new killer out that everyone wants to play again which means there's more killers and less survivors queuing up again. I mean it's not like this didn't happen for every killer before this or that perhaps people's real lives are taking precedence.

    Dude, rank reset happened 3 days ago, everyone is going to be around rank 10. Also survivors can't pip as easy as killers.

    That probably has absolutely nothing to do with it. Just because the we'd started getting long again THE SAME DAY a new killer was released...

    And the same thing happened during every other killer release...

    Probably unrelated.

    Meh killers pip quicker then survivors due to 2 pip requirements. If survivors crush a killer they may only black pip. If killer crushes survivors he 2 pips.

    Play survivor abit. Itypically play survivor to r1 which takes like 10 days. Then I play killer to r1 which takes a few days. After that just play whatever.

    Best part is when you wait ages for a lobby, then they all do a last minute change to p3 claudettes with flashlights and burn a coldwind offering and thick mist.

    *Close application*

    Yeah screw that. The survivors in this game literally ruin everything. Every game is just an excuse to be toxic for them.

    I wouldnt even be fussed with half of the last second switches if they were like that from the start, its that I cant stand them trying to be sneaky and I know they only want to be toxic and I dont want to play with people like that.

    Because powers....freddys dreamworld, huntress hatchets, spirits invisibility, chainsaws, hammers, 110% move speed, noed, tunneling, doc shock, hit box, lag switch, pig boxes, totems...Need I say more!?

    No way for survivors to ever win.

    Ever.

    Need more hatches, less gens. Make game go faster, less people play killer.

    Yeah screw that. The survivors in this game literally ruin everything.** Every game is just an excuse to be toxic for them.**

    Yes the typical survivor bashing and histrionics since every match is a 4 man swf squad that always goes full P3 Claudette at the last second. Let's see they also always go full DS/AD/DH/SC/UE/BT/NM loadouts. Wait that can't work since that's 6 perks aka 24 perks tot eh killers 4. You have to decide what perk excuse you want to use this time.

    Now it's the 4 flashlights excuse, the time before it 4 was 4 insta heals, the time before that it was 4 tool boxes with BNPS and all gens were done in 3 minutes. Well we know that's a bunch of baloney so they gen rushed you in 4 minutes and you magically never saw a single person.

    But wait it's their fault you got looped for 5 full gens, their fault for destroying your totems, their fault for not running in a straight line. It's their fault for pallet slamming you, their fault for doing safe unhooks and for not standing under a hook for you.

    The bolded part of your comment is most instructive so I'm going to point out something. If every game the survivors are toxic that means just one thing. The common denominator in every one of your games is you, which means the survivors aren't the problem.

    Oh in case you didn't realize this there's a LOT of SARCASM in my post !!!!~!!!!!

    it's time to get rid of the ranksystem for SWF in the first place.

    It's kinda BS that rank1 players team up with R10+ and get R10+ killers. Either remove SWF from the ranking pool to fix this issue or make the highest player of the SWF solemnly count for the matchmaker.

  • powerbats

    I copy pasted this from another thread since it's still probably accurate for here.

    It really depends on the time of day since before region lock removal rank 1 both sides was fine until about 2-3am PST. That time of day there was only about 20-30 survivors on and the same 5-7 killers.

    Afterwards it's much better but there's still times of the day where one or both sides getting a lobby is a royal pain.

    I do remember some commenters on here saying pre region lock removal that there was a huge imbalance of killers to survivors ratios for their areas. For one area it was like 70% or better all killers and the other region it was reversed.

    Don't forget that it's the holidays now, most schools are out on break so a lot of people are travelling, visiting relatives etc. You've also got the new characters and RDR2 is out and lots of people are playing that along with Fallout76 etc.
