When will depipping be removed?
It is demotivating in a game, where the outcome is a lot of the times based on RNG. Most of the times it is thus well out of your control due to getting camped, tunnelled, teammates throwing or horrible map design. It should simply be a reward at the end of the month based off of how much you played, not how RNG or other players cocked you.
It hold no value otherwise. Rankshas long been gone in this game.

It's not just RNG, if you're better at the game you can reach higher. It's meant to be an achievement to reach rank 1, not just a grind of how much you play.

Ranks have long been abandoned. And no, it is complete RNG. If I have bad teammates, if I get facecamped, if I get tunnelled and not touch a generator and so on. All lead to depipping.

If deppiping doesn't get removed, at least the requirements to get a pip should be made easier. Like, there are 4 survivors so as long as everyone is somehow pulling their weight it's honestly too difficult to pip once you reach gold & iri.

if you remove depipping, there is no consequence from loosing.
People could easily sabotage the game and it would not matter to them.

People that are going to throw will not be stopped by depipping. Hell, they don't pip to begin with. They don't care about it. It Is the weakest argument I have heard in a long time.
You know who do care? The people trying to play at their best and get cocked anyway by how ludicrous the pipping mechanics work. People who get caught after a 3 generator chase with a Cannibal only to be face camped after. People who get tunnelled out by a Nemesis in the match after. And have two teammates DC on the third one loosing all of their pips in a sweep, they worked hard on.

Good question for the next Reddit AMA tbh.
devs have stated grades are now primarily meant to be playtime/end of month reward

Yup. And removing depipping should not take a lot of time. I have seen a lot of people complain about this on Reddit as well. A lot of people feel a lot of stress over pipping and even get anxiety loading into a match not knowing if they'll loose a pip due to factors out of their control.

Get better at not getting caught first?
Most or my games (9/10), whether it's with friends or solo queueing, I get caught last. The only time I die is if we all die, with rare exceptions of me messing up.
So no, it's not RNG whether you pip up or down. It's a game that you could learn to play better instead of blaming the game itself for losing.

While this is true, not everyone wants to play stealthy and sprint burst away into a locker with Q&Q and lightweight every time they hear the terror radius for 0.1 seconds

Agreed, depipping should be removed

Replacing depipping with just safety pipping would be a good move, in my opinion. You still aren't progressing unless you play well (/don't get unlucky), but you're also not being punished for an off game or a game outside of your control.

I like depipping because it motivates me to do better the next game.
