Ranks in Lobby

[D0DG3R]

Anyone else sad to see ranks be removed from lobbies?

I used to get matched with players in Yellow/Green ranks from time to time even though I'm Rank 1 - I have tried to play with these players but when the Killer is my rank versing players who aren't it quickly becomes a very unfair game, I would simply re-que a lobby if players weren't my rank.

Now though, I see no ranks from my fellow survivors, for all I know I could be going into a game with players who aren't upto par with me nor the Killer making it extremely unfair.

You can always try and check the Profile for Playtime to maybe see how much someone has Played. But i think its to prevent the constant Lobby leaving if you dont play with People your own Rank. A Solution for that would be a Quickmatch Mode without Ranks and a Ranked Mode for Everything else. But then you have the Problem with a Split Playerbase.

No - with all the farming going on these days, rank ain't worth ♥♥♥♥!
No info gained by knowing other player's ranks anymore.

Eh, but the whole matchmaking system should be that I play with people of similar rank, I understand people farm, I've had many games similar and it's not like D/C'ing out of the game benefits me as I would get banned and lose pips that I had previously earned purely because someone wants to farm.

Yeah I miss it, it was a good change to finally being able to see rank before the match ends. Plus it made having prestige characters feel more worth it since it displayed prestige level as well.

It was much nicer before, It was nice to know that the team I'm with was probably for the most part decent, having my rank be displayed or the fact I've leveled my survivor up was great for showing off to others what I had achieved but now it's just dead, feels literally pointless to even have a rank, no wonder people derank.

Pretty sure they don't want survivors to play solo

Having rank there was a bug and now it's fixed. I guess it got there accidentally when they built their in-game friends list and lobby system.

Fixed an issue that caused Survivor ranks to be visible in the online lobby to other Survivors. Please note currently you can see character and prestige level, and we are working on a fix for this.

I don't see rank nor character level of other survivors, I don't understand how they went from PTB which was fine to so many isues on Live.

I've thoughts the same with the prestige! I miss it too, it was way better to know ur mates are actually somewhat close to your rank. As a solo surv, it was helping me to decide to stay or not.

Nope. Doesn't seem like it.

If this was indeed a bug that was "fixed" it is good to know where their heads are at.

Killers can pick and choose a lobby, thought this was a small step in the right direction for solos.

[D0DG3R]

Killers dodge lobbies all the time, I see them join and then leave a few seconds later, I understand if they are purple or higher versing red ranks, it's totally understandable, but not being able to see my own teams ranks just puts me on edge, I have been getting some really bad games, be it Killers who are 12 ranks higher than me.

Nothing worse than having 3 yellow ranked players who let you get 1 hooked purely because they don't even bother to go for the save at all lol

[Insane]

i miss it as well, i can't even flex my level 1 steve anymore
i actually have no idea why they removed it because its not like anybody even complained about it

[D0DG3R]

They could of done great things with the whole ranking system a long time ago, be it the charms they recently added, give us a little charm that is the rank we are or something, add a cosmetic extra that allows people to add on a patch or crest to show off something we have gained more than something everyone can get through the Rift.

They could even add a CSGO stat-trac cosmetic surely, something to show off how many times we escaped or something, that would be awesome, I really hope they improve charms, make them bigger and based on you as an individual rather than a you all get the same charms thing, I want to earn it not just play and get them casually, or buy them which you can do.
