I Don't Like This New Pip System

I just got done playing a game as killer, where I killed 3 and one escaped. I didn't pip. HOW IS 3 KILLS NOT PIP WORTHY?! Devs, please revert to the old pipping system. This new one doesn't make sense.

    Because it is dependent on Emblems not kills. Just because you got kills doesn't mean you met the higher requirements for the other emblems.

    Survivors are dealing with the same thing. Good luck piping if you die and are bad at looping or barely encounter the killer.

    I don’t have trouble piping as killer, but survivor is a nightmare rn.

    It's not "broken" it just means you have to git gud..... I hope they keep it like this for awhile so that people actually give it a try rather then want the same brain dead BS of "give me my win no matter how badly I played".... like in the old system a killer didn't even have to get a kill in order to pip why would I want that as a player... i want to be challenged...... I know that for the most part this game is mainly for "partying" but DBD does have the potential to be more...

    The problem is that as a killer, it’s the gatekeeper perk, you need to keep as many gens as possible up and running for nine minutes before you can start to play normally.


    you get score per minute for each gen remaining. If they get all gens done, you are not pipping unless you get a 4K. Period.

    Wait....you WANT to pip? I've honestly just stopped caring about my rank at this point. Now I hover around ranks 4,5,6

    Legion, despite being the most hated killer in the game, is the one that pips the most

    what did the devs meant by this?

    Honestly I don't really care about pipping for killer since it's easy, plus I get more BPs.

    For survivor however, it is a mess. I play solo and it's really hard to pip up when you play with lower ranks. I'm assuming that there are high/mid ranks around rank 8-10 from what I've been hearing lately.

    I hardly pip anything for survivor, one is lucky enough for me.

    I was on a leave for a short bit to gather myself because the game had become too frustrating. Come back and the pip system is impossible for my rank. I played a hands down awesome game that was pip worthy and got nothing for it. It’s become next to impossible for lower ranks to even move up anymore and I question why I’m back in the game at all... smh

    maybe a little boost and less lack of progress to get it up there. The old system was fine. I feel like if you are a starting rank who’s trying to succeed maybe lighten the load and for more experienced players give it some of a challenge instead of the other way around. Took me 8 games to get one pip and it wasn’t for lack of playing or ability to play the game.

    @impressionyouget87 The old system wasn't fine, pipping was way too easy.

    The new system got adjusted a bit for survivors, but not for killers. The system needs more changes, but we can't go back to the old one.
