How come when a killer dcs 5 minutes into the game because he is bad I lose a rank point.

And how come I can get some bars 5 games in a row but not rank up. I've never seen a more broken system in any game before.

    I don’t think you depip if killer dcs. It seems like you depiped but after you leave the lobby and return to the campfire it restores.

    Ah... newbies who think ranking up in this games means anything. So innocent.

    I just want the rank 1 achievement and then never touch the red ranks again

    Its just a visual bug, you dont actually lose the pip

    Why do you care about pipping/ranking is the more important question here

    Ranking up does have benefits though!

    You get to wait longer and have more time to consider what you are doing with your life... As a killer main anyways. :chuffed:

    Had some of my deepest life realizations this way.

    I have way more fun in red ranks as survivor because players actually know how to win and not farm the hook (in before double blood points and WGLF) . Seriously it is a lot more fun in red ranks . Purple and below make me mental
