    BHVR matchmaking

    The real problem is SWF, but BHVR hasnt been given a ######### about that for 3 years, so I assume that this will never change

    The best thing they could do is do away with ranks period. When you get down to rank 4 and below it takes 10x longer to get a match than when your a rank 15.

    Matchmaking is so broken now. Even swf doesn't make sense. I am solo rank 3 and ended up with 2,3,5 survivors and rank 12 killer. And most lobbies I see are bad ping.

    The ranks are pointless , you don’t have to be a great player to get to rank 1 or mine would never be there. All they reflect is how much you play a month really.

    I am rank 8 surv. I got put with 3 rank 2 survs and a rank 20 killer
    We unintentionally bullied the killer
     To be fair they played a lot better than some red rank killers

    Maybe they are ranking by hours played? No idea, because it has been messed up.

    cant be. I have almost 2k hours and played vs a killer with 6 hours playtime.
