Devs about removing rank in lobby..

The only reason we want to be able to see the ranks of our teammates is because we want a fair and balanced team, and we all know the matchmaking doesn’t work properly.

Purple ranks getting with Yellow? That doesn’t seem too fair. We aren’t using it to “dodge lobbies” because we have nothing else do you, we’re doing it because we want a fair and balanced experience and since the system is broken that was the only way we could do it.

I suggest bringing it back until it’s fixed. I’m not being hateful or rude, it’s just how most of us used it. Hopefully you’ll see where the majority is coming from and add it back until the matchmaking is more balanced.

Overall love you guys thanks for all the hard work!

    Peanits responded in another thread it's never coming back. His reasoning is that it promotes lobby dodging.

    I just lobby dodge if a swf joins which is sad because sometimes they will be in the same rankings of eachother but i cant trust a purple rank to not bring in 2 rank 20s so we all get absolutely destroyed because the devs cant at least prevent that from happening.

    Well, it’s better to just dodge the game altogether, than play with these current lobbies. At red ranks, we’re getting matched with people of all ranks, including 20s. And no, they aren’t SWF, as we can clearly see each player load individually with a couple seconds between them loading. The +/- 6 rank range is completely being ignored.

    I don’t want anyone seeing I am rank 1. I don’t want you to think I’m good.

    Guess I'm the only person who liked seeing the info so I could prep mentally. I never dodged based on rank.
