Is matchmaking broken
Both in SWF and Solo que all I've been getting is the same thing low skill teammates and high skill killers I'm sorry but did miss a meeting where SWF was giving people low skill teammates.

At this point I wish they'd just bring back rank-based matchmaking. It wasn't fantastic, but it made more fun matchups than whatever this mess is.

MMR is broken for sure.
- Queue times for survivors are literally 5 seconds even at 3 AM. There doesn't exist any matchmaking system that works with such low queue time. Just look around every other game has at least ~30 sec queue.
- Many regular players have reported winrates that are exceedingly far from 50%, My winrate as killer is over 85%, this should not be possible in a MMR-based matchmaking.
- One game I get a lobby with prestiges 0+ and no items, then I dodge and requeue instantly and I get prestiges 10+.
Clearly the "matchmaking" is just throwing people in lobbies as fast as possible.

This is the closest we have been to ranked based matchmaking since mmr released...

I mean even if it were do you think escapes and kills without context is representative of skill?

It's strange I remember having a lot more fun when it was ranked based. Also I really don't like how they calculate MMR, even if it is a decent indicator of skill over the long term (I don't think it is, especially with how matchmaking favors quick matches over actual MMR) it really feels like ######### game to game.

Out of curiosity. Did you encounter a lot of disconnecting/suiciding teammates since the patch?

I mean it has been broken since day one. SBMM has never worked, not even a single day. But if you are asking about the current problem of getting brand new teammates against non-beginner expert killers as a SoloQ player, then yeah, the skill discrepancy lately is even bigger. That's what you get when you alienate a big chunk of your playerbase and your completely useless matchmaking has to work with even less.

Yeah, I get about the same. My mmr is dropping because I die a lot after a patch and get worse teammates but killer skill stays the same so it's even a bigger slaughter. Really I feel like canon ball for killer fun at this point.

Yup. I’ve been complaining we need longer que times for more fairer/quality matches, and what do they do? Go in the opposite direction.

I posted this before and others did as well .. My experience is that most of time MMR doesnt work in SOLO-Q. Its all random, its all RNG. For example I have 4k hours as survivor and I m playing against 8k hours main killer nurse player, what is ok but my teamate 36 hours bill cant do much in such game.. When I see some lobbies then I have to leave many of them, many players prestige 0, basic skins like new players, if not private profile some has only few hours etc.
I think the worst time to play SOLO-Q EU central europe is mornings. I tried couple times, really the worst time to play solo survivors, teamates r somehow like new players.
Example is this morning when my teamate nea 0 prestige - I didnt leave lobby - had 3 perks level one, and 1 perk level two - pretty new player in the game.
SOLO-Q has more problems, wish in future devs would improve solo-q somehow so games wouldnt be just about DC in future
