Added "Quick Match" mode

in Feedback and Suggestions

Players have often complained about seeing other players using the same 10 perks over and over again in every match, making the matches look the same and stale.

We have seen developers attempt to add fun perks or change the gameplay to diversify the use of perks, however they have not been very successful

You try to play with your friends and enjoy playing and using a fun building, only for the sweaty killer to come and use the strongest killers, the strongest add-ons, and the strongest perks, and he plays very, very seriously, as if there is a prize for him to get.

Well, this team will get angry and will use the strongest items, the strongest add-ons, and the strongest perks to confront the killer. and the killer will be destroyed by this sweaty team.

It's an endless cycle where no one enjoys the game because the other party sweats so much

Instead of wasting time and effort destroying everything that is enjoyable from either party , we are just adding a new mode, which is a quick match where the ranks do not rise and you cannot do challenges. It is a mode just for fun.

Well, they can do two types of challenges, Quick Match Challenges and Rank Match Challenges

So, whoever wants to play with sweat can go to the rank mode and will face sweaty players

Those who do not want to play sweatily and like to play quietly can go to the quick match mode

And that's all I have

    Why not have it be a random perk mode. Sweats, especially toxic sweats will likely still play this new mode because they don't care about progression, they just care about winning or making others miserable. With random perks, it is a fun gamemode for casuals while also ensuring that if toxic sweats do play it, they can't bring their try hard builds.

    It is true that it will not prevent sweaty players, but it will reduce it significantly. If the game wants to reward you for the strength of your sweat in playing and make your matches more challenging, then it can go to rank matches.

    This is something DBD mobile did a few years ago and so far it is still very successful

    I really don't think there will be a reduced amount of "sweaty" players in this quick play gamemode. With how lackluster the current mmr system is there is no incentive to really play the normal game mode in terms of progression. So naturally all these people will go to quick play to snag even easier wins. On top of that 99% of dbd players don't want to try, even the "sweats".

    If there was a real ranked system then I would agree with you.
