The Surv ranking changes mean you have to put top killers against mediocre survivors. Not cool.

Please just undo literally everything you've done to survivor ranking in the last month, because I am sick of getting sweaty rank 1 nurses at rank 10 who have a thousand more hours in the game than I do. Its not fair, and is unfun. I (and many more knowledgeable than I) believe the reason this is happening is because there arent enough top level survivors, therefore in order to fill the killer lobbies you gotta put lower skilled players in IE me. Honestly the killer ranking system is fine but survivors even with todays "fix" are still not ranking up as fast so mediocre players are the ones being punished. Plus the bug the kicks you out of the game randomly (about 1 in 7 games for me) also brings down surv ranks as well.

Also why did they remove the dark screen with a nurse's fatigue? she was OP even before that and they buffed it? bvhr devs must be nurse mains or something because I cant fathom another reason.

    Matchmaking system is not the same as Survivor pipping system

    What that still means is there isnt enough Red Rank Survivors

    So your thread is entirely pointless, as you believe that to be the pipping system at fault and you want to revert it back.

    The solution would be to make pipping for survivors easier, not the other way around like you suggested, twisted

    Yeah, not sure what is to blame but it is ridiculous that they match rank 1s with 20s. Most people will say its fine though cause they like the fact it makes the game easy for them.

    Yes and what about survivor rank 1 queue with their Rank 15-20 friends to get matched against a Rank 20 Killer?

    There arent any rank1 survivors anymore until yesterday. Just those who havent played any games since last reset, and oh, next reset comes in two days.

    @No1TheLarch: How should they have matched instead? There were no more redrank survivors and most of them even struggled to stay in purple ranks until the fix. Your thread is just too late cause they already fixed the cause of no redrank survivors.

    But I am suggesting making it easier as it was a month ago (30 days) and yes in case you didnt read the REASON the matchmaking is the way it is is because they have to make games for red rank killers. If there arent enough red rank survs (due to the ranking changes) they would either have to give killers super long que times or match them against lower ranks. Furthermore, in case you didnt get what I was saying is to take ranking for survivors to how it was before the plague patch. (ie a month ago)

    @MegsAreEvil what they did was make it slightly easier but it is NOT too late (I even mentioned yesterdays patch i the original post) as they have not gone far enough to make survivors rank up, given the lack of incentive to do so and the dc bug culling many survs from the top ranks. The killer matchmaking I feel is fine.

    Survivor pipping is actual fine at least in purple ranks (dont know how it looks in redranks, i cant get there within some days). Until the patch i deranked constantly towards green ranks (if i played more i surely already were in green ranks), but now its possible to rank up at moderate speed. Thats totally fine and doesnt need further changes. Only the emblems need still changes, buts hats another issue.

    That is people abusing the games matchmaking as opposed to the Devs feeding newbies to rank 1s
