  • This is no bug, but a new feature for the upcoming MMR Matchmaking system.

  • So, we're not supposed to be allowed to alter our killer choice based on survivors picked and/or items they are carrying? Or spend bloodpoints while waiting for a match? Talk about lighting a dumpster on fire.

    yep, not a bug at all, just read the patches.

    If you could change the killer during Matchmaking or in the lobby, you could abuse the upcoming MMR system by picking a killer you rarely play and then switching to your main killer to get more inexperienced opponents and have an easy match.
