So, how do you raise survivor mmr?
Legit question.
I run the killer for 15 minutes, no gen gets done, I proceed to not only have 140 points in chasing because I spent the entire damn game running for like 15+ minutes straight, but then have to lose the killer AND then do gens.

Legit, in basically all of my games NOBODY else does any gens, no matter if you chase, or just do gens, nothing happens. One of em is on hook, I have kindred, I see them just standing in one corner, staring at a wall before walking slightly and doing the same thing a bit to the left.
The hell
They all have proper perk builds, HOW are they so bad?
I've played over 10 games, and there was ONE game where I wasn't the only one doing gens. Legit, the average gens done per game is like 1 or less.
If you only get an mmr boost if you survive, and I keep dying because I legit just can't do 5 gens before everyone else is dead and the killer eventually kills me since they mostly go down in under 30 seconds, how am I supposed to raise my mmr?
Hatch as far as I know doesn't even count as surviving.

So like, how does that work exactly? The killer would need to be basically afk to not win these matches and I just can't do 5 gens all by myself every game.
I'm not even saying I'm good, I'm a killer main and I'm just like, decent, I am great at losing killers and I do gens and don't just self care the entire game in a corner or something and actually make sure to do objectives. I don't even want to be like rank 1 or anything, I would just love to not get 4k'd every game because it seems all my teammates are sometimes (2 games ago we had 2 afks) afk.

You can't escape alone as survivor without anyone doing at least SOMETHING unless the killer has pity or is just absolutely atrocious, even then, if he spots you and nobody else does anything, you can still lose since you just don't get to do objectives.
So what the heck do I do?
I just want to have the matches seem a LITTLE fair.
When I play killer 3 gens pop before anyone is dead (though to be fair my killer mmr is WAY higher), but here they just don't do anything... at all

Pretty sure MMR doesn't even work as intended... so it's hard to say how to work with an inconsistent system.

Man I just want to get to play the gaaaame. It was never this obnoxious with the old system, as awful as it sometimes was

Now I can't even tell if my team mates are real players or just like, bots or something who exist to grind blood points by joining games and just dying over and over or (not sure if that even exists)

Yeah, so how the hell am I supposed to raise it if I can't survive without any team mates if they are busy staring at walls in the corner until they eventually die after 3 seconds of chase while letting me die first hook

Honestly do 2 gens then mess around with taking protection hits, safe unhooks, and making chases last as long as possible and you will gradually go up the ranks due to the emblem system.
The mmr system isn't even worth considering at this point, it's not like devs know what win condition they want to have in the game anyway.

It's near impossible to survive when your team mates aren't even playing the game.
Like, credit where credit is due but most of them die with like, 7 to 10k bloodpoints at most.
According to a recent dev interview, survivors get MMR points when they escape, and lose them when they get killed. How many points you get is based on your MMR vs the killer's MMR. The lower your MMR is compared to the killer, the more points you get... up to a cap of 20 per match. The higher your MMR is compared to the killer, the less you get. Probably to a minimum of 1 point.

When you die, you lose points based on your MMR vs the killers. Your MMR being higher then the killer's will mean you lose more points, up to a cap of 20. It being lower then the killer's MMR means you lose fewer points, likely to a minimum of 1 point.

As a killer, you gain 1-5 points per survivor you killed and lose 1-5 points for survivors that escaped. Again, the amount gained or lose is based on your MMR vs the MMR of the survivor in question.

But I don't want emblems, I want to have actual fun games where I have a team lol

Your match making rating, or MMR, is NOT connected to your grade. Emblems have no impact on your MMR.

For crying out loud, I know how the system works, I am asking how the hell I am supposed to survive without a team. It's near impossible to do 5 gens alone
Kaleidio Oct 22, 2021 @ 10:21am 
And dying apparently just makes my mmr worse, so now I get even worse team mates, which lowers my chance of survival EVEN more

By recruiting friends to go in with you, instead of solo queuing. Note, I am not saying "form a voice chat using SWAT unit". I am saying party up with friends who know how to play and are willing to actually play. Even if you don't use voice chat, you'll find you have team mates that are contributing.

Nobody I know still plays dbd lol, they all quit it. Which didn't bother me since i was a killer main, but god, as killer you just need to sweat and tryhard every game and it's so exhausting.

It's a free weekend too so expect new people and trolls

Mmr is a legit joke. The devs have basically admitted the majority of your hidden ranking is based on kills and escapes regardless of how you do it.

So that clauddette you see hiding in lockers all game and escapes through hatch? Probably has a higher rating than you who have looped the killer for most of the game and died to noed.

If you're talking about your grade you see, it's just the pip system which was what was used before the "secret" mmr system which basically translates to more time played = higher your grade regardless of win or loss.
