Title.

I just wanna know when I can come back to the game, I tried my best to play every day to give feedback but from day 2 onwards has just been horrible.

If you are curious of my feedback check my other post, but I physically cant force myself to play this anymore. Neither side is fun, one side is repetitive and boring while the other seems pointless and stressful

    There will be another test on the 4th and on the 7th. They probably did not want to include weekends into the testing phase. (Weekends can change the data)

    There is a Feedback-Category for the Matchmaking-Tests, so you might want to head to those for Feedback.

    So I could hop on Sunday and itd be back to normal?

    And I already left feedback, I just meant if anyone one the forums was interested they could check it out.

    Thanks for the reply as always!

    Since we launched our new matchmaking system last year, we’ve received a wide variety of feedback and suggestions for improvements. Some of you have asked for fairer matches, even if it means waiting longer, while others have asked for faster queue times above all else. This makes sense since region, time, role and ratings can all affect matchmaking, and some folks are looking for a casual experience while others are more competitive.

    With that in mind, we’re asking for your help to put these suggestions to the test. Over the coming weeks, we’ll be running a series of matchmaking experiments, with each experiment lasting one day. Our goal is to find a nice balance between queue times and fairness that everyone can be happy with.

    If you’re curious, here’s a brief explanation of how the matchmaking system works: When you queue up for a match, the game will look for players with a similar matchmaking rating to make the match as fair as possible. If it’s unable to find even opponent(s), it’ll gradually expand the range over a few minutes until you get a match. This way, we try to give you a good match if possible, but you’re guaranteed to get a match if you’ve been waiting a while.

     

    When is it?

    The matchmaking experiments will take place on the following dates:

    • March 28th
    • March 29th
    • March 30th
    • March 31st
    • April 4th
    • April 7th

    Each of the experiments will last 24 hours and feature one or more tweaks. The tests will begin at 11AM EDT.

     

    What’s changing each day?

    It’s a mystery! We don’t want to influence your opinion by spoiling what’s different, so we won’t be revealing what we changed ahead of time. One day may favour faster queues over match quality, while another may prioritize finding the most even opponent(s) possible.

     

    How can I help?

    Let us know how each day feels! Were you getting matches quick enough, or did it feel like you were waiting too long? Were you getting close matches, or were your opponent(s) all over the place? Each day, we’ll create a new forum section and ask for your thoughts. You can find the sections here: https://forum.deadbydaylight.com/en/categories/matchmaking-tests

    It would also be helpful to know what your matchmaking experience is usually like around the time you play so we can compare the effects of the experiments.

    Beyond that, just do what you normally do. We’ll be watching queue times and match results behind the scenes to cross reference with your feedback.

     

    That’s it! With your help, we look forward to improving the matchmaking system. In case you missed it, we are also working on other improvements to the matchmaker.
