Why is solo survivor such a frustrating and NEVER IMPROVING experience?

I do, one match, a 5 gen chase against a noed Bubba. Eventually he gets a 2k. Next match, I find a lobby with one guy with 78 HOURS. 78, when I have 2300 hours!!!

Then many matches where I do tons of gens, do a lot of saves and massive chases.

Then what? Next lobby 3 guys with 1000+ hours, where 1 game out of 2 someone disconnects immediately, or either suicides on hook, or the killer is a complete baby and is just a gen rush and we all get out.

Tried for 4/5 hours, with cross play off and on.

Nothing, there's never a fun match, where something frustrating doesn't happen, where a Bubba doesn't get 2 kills no skill with noed, where teammates don't dc/suicide, ######### around with flashlights, have chases that last literally 10 seconds, get tunneled out of the game immediately because they don't have DS.

There's never a comeback NEVER, NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER EVER, it's something LITERALLY legendary.

I repeat it, even with cross play off.

    because

    I dont really know, but it would probably require an overhaul that BHVR can't do.

    It would require to add a chase skill/not suicide factor into the SBMM elo

    So...you are mad about killers that aren't skilled enough? I thought most people complaining about solo queue were people constantly dying. You would think the DC and hook suicide games would be up your alley to challenge you a bit. Lol.


    If you want a balanced pvp experience, you are playing the wrong game. Try... Anything that isn't asymmetrical.

    Killers are not the problem (Noed Bubbas are), they're almost always skilled.

    The problem that must get fixed is the survivors you constantly play with. Solo Q is super tough, not because there's no communication, but because teammates are JUST BAD, many times.

    I meant buffing solo survivor and buffing killers accordingly, not the SBMM

    Honestly bro, just don't play solo queue. Play in a group and you'll have more fun. Solo queue is like hard mode for survivor, and stuff like Clown, Legion, and Myers are hard mode on killer.

    Accept that solo queue is a complete memefest shitshow and you'll have fun with it. If want to play to win, try playing in a group. If you solo queue a lot, there's absolutely other people in solo queue that will group up with you.

    Solo survivor is the most chill mode in this game. At least for me.

    you cant really buff solo in any way without it being abused in the future i play solo myself but which you really gotta do is befriend players in the lobby and if they play well invite them to a group so not everyone is braindead. It just takes a lil patience and to find players you can sync with. The main problem with solo is really the selfish mentality that accompanies it. So many times have i gotten hooked and stayed they with my team mates hiding behind a wall waiting for killer to leave the hook when infact you have to lure the killer away by slowly popping a gen or 2. All in all it takes a bit of coordination that you dont really have as a solo player due to no communication.

    In solo queue, the killer is the least of your concerns. I almost exclusively play solo, and I die far more often to inept teammates than simply because the killer was "OP".

    Solo queue is the true 4v1 experience.
