My Feedback to hide Prestige

Hello,

i am one of the choosen (bullied) players who cant see the prestige levels in lobbys anymore.

i play as surv more than killer but i want it back as soon as possible, plz.

i was not asked to be testet but i can confirm that as hidden prestige is bad.

Not only for the intended thinking that killers will dogde less; but every one deserves too see their prestige that they have worked for in hunderds off hours.

so plz revert the change and give it back.

Thank you

    Hello, 2nd Post.

    As i wrote Hidden Prestige sucks as Surv or Killer.

    You are ruining the game. We check all profiles in the lobby and no matter if we see the prestige or not. newbies will be dogded as surv all the time.

    u cant fix this with hidden prestige

    !!! repair your matchmaking !!! then its fine, but like last game a 23 hour KILLER vs me 2400 hrs is no fun.

    and a ######### 100 hr surv ruins all game.

    make better mmr and keep the skill levels closer, that how ur game will succeed, but not if u take us the PRESTIGE that we EARNED us buy playing.


    Thank You and turn it back on i payed for this to not be a BETA TESTER ;)

    This IS a fix to the broken matchmaking. The reason why you found yourself in that lobby in a first place was, that you were backfilled there, because someone appropriate for that lobby already left (maybe even multiple times).

    By limiting the amount of information both surivivors and killer get - you reduce the amount of dodges in lobby which results in lobbies like this to happen less often.

    It's a good change and the "only alternative" is to turn off backfilling logic (meaning you would wait ages if anyone leaves the lobby - and that's something people already expressed they are not willing to do)

    i would love the wait more time to get an lobby at my mmr; same as other games like Leage of Legends.

    This is no way to fix the MMR backfilling.

    We tested different MMR settings month bevore and it was ok at some point, so they should focus on that, other than constantly push ppl against their bad desicions

    This is more of an emotional response than a factual one. Trust me you'll survive. The same happened with ranks years ago and nobody cared.

    for me thats true, but for the ppl i started with 2 years ago, all left the game cause of this bad community management. sadly around 8 or 9 by now...

    this is a funny comment right here, as if dodging lobbies wasn't a thing before prestiges. people dodge lobbies for million different reasons all the time on dbd or on other games it is inevitable. killers and survivors will dodge by seeing your hours. seeing what characters and skins you have, what items your bringing. so many stuff. so please, if you're new the game just say so because i remember people dodged so much back then in 2019 when not seeing the og four characters

    Just type it into chat. "I'm prestige 69."

    It will literally have the same effect.
