There should be a play again feature.

At the end of a match survivors and killers should have an option to queue into the next lobby with the other people in their current game also select to play again. If someone does not select then they would be replaced with another random person. This could lead to fun rematches with nice people. Obviously, there would be salty rematches but that is a player problem. What do you think?

  • Wouldn't work, every rematch would devolve into survivors now knowing which killer it is and what build they are using and changing their builds to counter them

    All doctor rematches are now full of calm spirit

    All trapper rematches now have maps with trap tracking

    All hag rematches now have 4 flashlights

    decent idea but in practice it is highly abusable and no sane killer knowing these factors would probably want to use them so it just becomes a noob trap for people who don't know better

    What about if the killer could select any other killer + build regardless of MMR?

  • Think about this. If you wanted a rematch, and you liked the killer as a player and you were having fun...you wouldn't ruin it by being a super hard try hard counter picking jerk. You'd just play have fun and make a friend instead of just doing it for spite rematches.

  • BHVR would never do this.. Could lead to people helping each other with achievements, challenges and or farming. BHVR doesn't want people getting any of that done easily lol

    Personally I'd be all for it but yeah, not gonna happen I know how they are.

    then you can just have someone lower the mmr of one killer massivly then bait really low mmr probably newer players into a rematch against a god nurse or something

    The rematch could be non-MMR affecting to prevent abuse. I think if a killer wants a rematch it would be expected they'll go harder especially if they lost, unless they just really liked the survivors.

  • id say just have a play again that gives you a new lobby, like warzone or something

    thats not what was stated, first use a low mmr character to bait a rematch with bad players (due to their low mmr) making them easy cannon fodder for someone they should never have gone against im not talking a bit worse players im talking use a character that has thrown mmr so far most people you would assume are doing less than afks

  • I could see both ends of the spectrum.

    Some would abuse it to bait-and-switch with Killers they know how to play, but others would do it for the memes and the fun times.

    Or if they had a really good game and want to live it again.

    Lot of effort to smurf although I'm sure some would. If survivors don't want to risk that they could just not agree to a rematch though?

    If anyone was insane enough to rematch my Basement Bubba, I would take great joy watching them on hook again.

  • I agree, however there should also be feature called "Never again" so you can opt out players you played before for a month, then it resets in case someone would do that to everyone they played with
