Hide prestige level in pre-match lobby

Showing prestige level in the pre-match lobby slows down matchmaking, for no benefit.

High prestige survivor players lobby dodge because the rest of the survivors are low prestige. And killer players lobby dodge because they see a lobby of high prestige survivors.

Hiding prestige in the pre-match lobby fixes this issue.

    Agreed. It's a needless thing that doesn't do any good in the lobby. 100% fine to show after the match though.

    I've been saying this for months. They don't listen. They haven't even addressed it despite there being so many tiktoks and yt videos talking about how bad it is. People give up their favorite characters to avoid tunneling, lobby dodging and insults. You basicly get punished for putting time into the game. But they're forcing you to flex with your fav characters if you want to buy new items in the blood web. Hiding the prestige or giving you the option to hide your prestige would definitely be a game changer.

    hide all player info. just make the game 100% anonymous and have the match be denoted by a serial number for reporting purposes. then designate each survivor with a number 1-4.

    when the game is over if someone needs to be reported just copy down the match number and then say "killer" or "survivor 1" - "survivor 4" and that should allow an investigation if necessary.

    Yeah. At least for the killers. Maybe even other survivors too, honestly.

    How about no.

    In the current state of the game I have no desire to play a match where a bunch of prestige swfs goons gets to bully me for an hour plus by abusing closets, flashlights and other DH-like bs.


    Those are non-games and I fully support the idea of being allowed to go "nope" at any given matchup.


    My time on this earth is precious and nobody is entitled to it but me.

    My friend, I'm glad that at least someone touched on this topic! My friends and I stopped playing our favorite characters because the killer sees P100 and his main task is to tunnel or camp this player. Why did I buy my favorite BHVR character? Why should I suffer because of your new prestige system? Why does the killer need to see our items, prestige, players, profiles, etc.? For the survivors, a big surprise is who they play against! Let it be the same for murderers.
