Kill Switch update: Amanda's Letter add-on for The Pig has been Kill Switched due to an issue with incorrect RBT count.

When are we getting K/E ratio stats for each mmr bracket?

Usually we get stats every so often, now mmr is a thing I really wanna see which killers are picked and their kill rates at each mmr bracket (low,mid,high mmr)

I honestly dont want the stats jumbled up hiding stats for each level of play.

Also hackers are still a problem. Fix it.

    I’m not sure if there even are “brackets” as such. It feels like there’s barely any distinction whatsoever.

    The thing is, the devs won't accept the reality that MMR that functions correctly needs to be forward-facing - we're going to continue to have a lack of transparency as long as the devs feel compelled to ignore balance issues in their game.

    Three things are required for a functional MMR system that aren't in DBD:

    • Clear win conditions which compliment participation: something we do not get with the kill/escape system
    • Sides in a fight being treated as a team rather than as individuals: something we're explicitly not getting, with devs treating DBD as a 1v1v1v1v1
    • A visible MMR bracket: something the devs are actively against doing due to the possibility of players abusing the system, despite MMR being abusable even without that information.

    Without those three things, there's no intracommunity verifiability or accountability, and the system is left exposed to as much abuse (if not more) than the old rank system.


    So by that third point, yeah, we should definitely get ratio stats. We needed those for the rank system too. The devs are too egocentric and/or scared to give or even process real data, though.

    Hopefully never. People go nuts on numbers and I hope BHVR changes Killer stats from kills to Hooks and Survivor's from solo Escape to total team Escapes so that Altruism is worth something again.

    The stats dont lie; Nurse badly needs a buff for every bracket :(

    Well In an ideal world I'd rather much better stats for sure but we know the devs dont do that.

    But seeing which killers drop off at which level of play and how the average kills to decimal point changes as the level increases

    Remember when they said that with the introduction of MMR, they can balance the game more accurately because of more accurate and precise data?

    And then they nerfed Deathslinger with no compensation, nerfed Pinhead, and buffed Nurse?

    Never as it would show how unbalanced the game is atm.

    You will never get such a stat.

    Same, they could release the camp/tunnel (first survivor died with under 8k points for exemple) stats but will never do it as it would be 80% of the trials.

    Haven't touch DbD for 2 weeks and moved on 2 other games, feeling great and not frustrated once since :).

    I suspect the matchmaking is way too broad for such data to be useful. Complete fresh accounts are matched with multi-thousand hour accounts all the time. They completely lost the plot with MMR.

    Well, I don't think it'll tell us anything to know how many escapes Survivors have done/how many kills Killers have done, if you don't take into account other metrics, such as chase time, etc.
