Rank matters (vets only)
Warning. this thread will either make total sense if youre a vet, or upset you if youre a casual. if you find yourself getting upset about it, back up and recognize that it wasnt intended for you.
We regularly hear from low rank randos about how rank doesnt matter.
The truth however is that is does. The gameplay is far different at rank1 than rank15. At rank1, you deal with far more skilled players on both sides, who are bringing better items, using better offerings, and i see moris at least 50% of games.
The harsh reality is that the average player is bad, real bad. the majority of our population plays between rank10-20, however humans dont do well with thinking they are average. Its far easier to play at scrub ranks and tell themselves that rank simply doesnt matter, or that rank1 just isnt fun, which actually translates into “i get less points and survive/kill less at rank1”.
The result of all this, is that you see well known and even sponsored streamers DCing to play at rank15, because they can convince themselves and their followers that this is where the game is “fun”.
fun, means differnent things to different people, but for people who play at rank1, we play for a challenge, not SWFing down rank15 killers. if we didnt play for a challenge, we would be deranking to earn more bp per game with easier wins.
people need to start supporting actual skilled players, not these deranking scrubs. if the person youre watching is DCing, or running SWF and bullying low rank killers, stop supporting them.
if you like watching survivor gameplay, find some solo survivor, preferably one who plays with no items or offerings, or no perks even, and watch them. you will learn more, see better gameplay, and ultimately be doing right by the game and its community by not supporting bad streamers.
on a more personal level, if youre a player, stop DCing. get to rank1 and play there. your achievement for “getting there” means nothing. actually play there, for the rest of whatever season, and the next, and the next. you will be better for it.
if this thread makes no sense to you, or is offensive, then you do not play at rank1. you may have got there during a double bp farming event for the achievement, but you clearly arent playing there.

You can't take trolls seriously, never.
and yeah, im currently waiting for the other team in this eso 4v4v4 bg to ready up, they look scared.
I won't lie. When I first met you on the do if you post you seemed honestly like an ######### but it's nice to know that you're not completely one at all.
Though you did go to jail.
Going and trying to make it as you do have a point I know some people in the comment section won't agree with that but to be honest at higher rank.
It isn't Fun.
It isn't fair.
At the time I just want to run nothing but ebony
However it is challenging and it feels pretty good to actually beat a full survival Squad. Now something I could disagree with is on average there are a lot of bad players.
I wouldn't say there's a lot of bad players but there's a lot of people in my honest-to-god opinion that might play Survivor 85% of the time in a group with their friends.
Hell, at least 75% of every ######### game it's going to have survived with friends using flashlights and broken perks just so they can show up and hope the beat me.
It's not just them either some Killers will use some pretty cheap tactics. Never in my existence have I seen a Michael use no one escapes death but I saw one last week and let me tell you I was actually disappointed.
Now as for the bullying. That's not going to stop hell it's a tactic used by lot of squads to piss off the killer and force a chase that they can't win. Some average Killers will easily fall for it.
Not to mention they see the squad load up together and not even switch tactics or even attempt to use a Mori to take someone out of the game early or even Franklin's demise to get rid of some of those flashlights in tool boxes.
Believe me high-ranked play should be a very skill-based you kind of me instead I see so much cheapinus it's not even funny.
Make killers stronger: Every killer should be at least Billy's level in strength or nurse's level if the killer takes tremendous skill to play. Now survivors will have to hide from the killer and rank will be important again since you can't screw up against a killer.
Discourage escaping and encourage Piping: Every survivor should understand that if they don't work as a team or if one person isn't playing at least 50% optimistic, they'll need to accept that they will get sacrificed and go for a pip.
The stupidity is at its point with JUST the right amount of insult and defamy against anyone that disagrees.
Make it like indentity V 's ranking system.
Now that is an actually balanced and competitive asymetrical game.
i think they should get rid of safety pips, and make it harder to pip in general.
the irony that the only one insulting anyone here is you with the name calling. dont get yourself banned just because you got salty on a post not intended for you
Almost everyone knows that game is completely survivor sided. Balanced?
That's all you got to say
Lmao
I have them all tho. Its just a poor excuse.
Exactly.
The killers have awesome abilities, I'll say thay much. But I'd say the only way killers are good is when you have one teamate on the squad thay can't pull their weight. I stopped playing around the time the killer after the geisha cane out because jungle gyms are just too ######### strong, especially on that damn chapel level. Hated that pos since it was released
I'm locking this down as it's gone far enough and there are way too many low key insults going on throughout the whole thread.
Everyone has a right to an opinion on the game and are free to express their opinion as long as they are not being rude or aggressive, regardless of their hours played etc.
