DbD ranked
DbD lacks ranked queue, players have now taken things in their own hands and made a DbD ranked server/system. The server have over 1k members in less than 24 hours showing the high interest to get this ingame.

While I am not against a ranked mode per se, DbD has approximately 60k active users in the last month. 1k people is 1.6%. There are more people playing twins than there are playing on that ranked server. I don't think that necessarily indicates "high interest."

On the one hand, it's actually an average of 60k concurrent users over the last month. Since not everyone is playing 24/7, the total number of people playing the game is probably much higher, easily 10 times that number at least. And, that number's only for Steam, which is only a fraction of the total player base. I would be unsurprised if the total number of active monthly players would be over a million.
On the other hand, "only" 1k people out of that theoretical 1 million joining a ranked server doesn't mean that the other 99.9% don't want that feature. Not everyone knows about this server - until reading this post, DBDLeague was the only ranked system I knew about. Especially since that server was probably promoted only in English-speaking communities, they'd be missing out on much of the Asian and South American communities. And, there's plenty of people who probably want a ranked system but wouldn't go out of their way to join such a server. So, although 1000 people is a tiny fraction of the actual playerbase, that doesn't necessarily mean that such a number is insignificant
