Devs pls rework finally the actually Ranking System
Hello,
Indeed the problem is the different difficulty of pipping between survivor and killer. It´s much easier to pip as survivor and harder to pip for killers. In my opinion, this is the reason why survivors have longer waittimes in lobbys at the momend. Cause many killers don't like playing high ranks. To much stress include genrushers only or toxic squads or other ect. Making it both easier for killer and harder for survivor maybe help or not. Fakt is we need a new Ranking system with better rewards or a complete new structure.

Honestly The Ranking system is a Huge overlooked issue by the Devs. If Rank actually worked to showcase someones skill there would be a hell of a lot less complaints about balance.
Right now Rank mostly just shows how long you've played, especially for survivor where you can rank up so easily even when dying. Killer it's a little more difficult which is good but then there's a whole other set of problems with certain killers and emblems.
True and the result as you can see... much longer qtimes for survivors i believe.
Its subjective with which is easier. As a rank 1 killer I could say ranking up as killer is easier. As a rank 2 survivor, that isn't an amazing survivor, I can say survivor is too easy. It about how much you want to devote to playing.
Ranking in this game isn't based on skill. The closer to rank reset the more potatoes make it to the upper ranks on the backs of other potatoes. Which makes it easier for somewhat good players to rank up on their backs.
Unless the Devs track skill and match players accordingly the ranking system will be nothing more than a sliding window with a ceiling at rank 1.
The devs were planning on changing how Ranking works over the next few months according to their roadmap released in June:
roadmap4.pngNot entirely sure how it will be changed though, and if Rank Rewards will finally be added or not.
The whole system doesnt work well. After all with the new rankreset we will get even more potatoe survivors in ranks, where they dont belong. also its isnt like you said, thats its stressful for redrank killers, its stressful for survivors too cause of those toxic killers which shouldnt even rank up a bit by just tunneling, camping or only using OP stuff.
tunneling is not a thing, camping also, and don´t forget in this game perks exists for tunnel and camp and its a legit strategy. Survivorperks like DS, BT are good counters for it and survivors have enough weapons. So deal with it. Toxic killers ? there are no toxic killers...only toxic survivors and the reason why killers playing often with tunnel or camps has nothing to do with toxic. Survivors are the reason why so many killers are playing like an ######### but that has nothing to do with that tread.Don´t forget: The Killer make the decisions and when a killer makes a decision and 1 survivor complain about it...than beef inc. Its allways so..crazy how this game can trigger people.
I think too many people are in red ranks. If i'm honest with myself, i know that i probably don't belong to r1, if the system would work properly. I would probably be around rank 5 in a good ranking system.
They just need to add a rank reward at the end of the season, like literally every other game with ranked matchmaking.
Here's the thing... as a killer I can screw around, get 1 sacrifice, and walk out of a match having fun, with 3 survivors escaping, and take away 20k+ BP without counting BBQ/Offerings every game. And I'll depip/black pip. Hell, those survivors love it, too, because they walk out with 20k
And that's exactly what I do because in order to enjoy this game and its current state, I have to stay away from red ranks and the miserable experience it can be. I'll take having fun in greens any day over that.
It is on the roadmap but won't come until sometime next year.
Personally I don't think rank and matchmaking should be linked together as its always caused issues and an mmr system would be better with rank changing to a monthly achievement system.
According to the roadmap, we're supposed to see something by the next mid-chapter patch.
I'm hoping it's something like reverting the horrible changes in 2.6.0 or an entire rework of the ranking and MM systems.
fact is something must happend....the pip system is outdated.
