I want to see my MMR

Ok, the system has been in place for enough time now. I think it's time that MMR transparency began. Show us the MMR's after the match. Only after the match is completed, so we don't have people cherry picking matches by lobby dodging.


I want to know how I'm doing. Seeing the MMR slowly rise indicates I'm improving and provides an incentive to play more. I know in the short term if the match went well, but that just could be a good map / killer pairing. I want the my MMR. That is only so useful without knowing the skill of the killer I'm facing. I'd also like to know what my teammates were, but I can understand that this might lead to a griefing scenario.

Maybe you need to make button to show MMR, that disables post game chat...i dunno. Hiding this information doesn't make the game better, it just causes me to wonder about the apocalyptically bad matchmaking I am seeing.

    Is MMR really a sign of improvement?

    Someone will eventually make a site/program that will show you your mmr its just a matter of time.

    The MMR system isn't a progression system, you shouldn't be looking to that for whether or not you're improving. At best, it'd be a placebo that may or may not be giving you accurate feedback, and at worst, it'd be used to make the conversation surrounding game balance noticeably worse, as tends to happen when there are visible ranks.

    You don't need to see your MMR. There isn't actually any benefit to it.

    It is, whether you think it is a good one or not is irrelevant. Chess has an ELO system which works very similarly. It works better in chess because there are only 2 people and the outcome is based PURELY on skill. DBD has a lower signal to noise ratio, maps, killer, perks, etc. All of these things are noise, but noise gets averaged out with large data sample sizes.

    So you telling me I don't need it is misguided. Instead what you are saying is you don't like the system and YOU see no value in it.

    I don't understand people's obsession with mmr and ranks in what's essentially the mario party of horror games.

    Yes skill is involved and decisions matter but at the same time there's enough RNG and imbalance involved that being competitive about this game almost seems irrational (yes I find the fact they hold Tournaments for this game extremely silly).

    As others have said, people are either going to figure out how to easily datamine it themselves and release that info, or someone will launch an MMR checker. Better for BHVR to accept the inevitability and display it so people aren't tampering with files and 3rd party programs. The devs have yet to make anything remotely secure with this game. I'm sure MMR is no different

    How very bhvr that people can find out other peoples IP addresses but won't give us access to an mmr score. LUL

    Prolly true for PC but not the consoles. The various UEA's prohibit releasing specific data like that I bet.

    So would I, however that would show us just show crappy the MMR system actually is.

    It's because it's forced on us. If it didn't exist, I wouldn't care. It does, so I would like to see it
