It's so interesting to me that people have only noticed this in the last few days, as I've noticed the opposite. However, I noticed a few months ago that the quality of my teammates got better, and that has only recently changed. I'm wondering if Bhvr tests certain features in certain regions, at seperate times. Perhaps they started testing this feature in the Oceania region, when I noticed it, and they are testing it on a larger population?
Hello there, i started rougly last year and gathered already 2,5k hours. And from my experience the last few times playing each side (yes i play killer and survivor) feels more like competetive then your usal "horror game" and i don?t believe thats behaviours goal or at least it shouldnt be. Like scott said : " we dont want sto sweat each game and have fun and go for 12 hooks and not tunnel some1 out" well, yeah exactly. However the "reality" is, that as a killer youre forced to tunnel if you face good survivors over and over again who pressure the gens in like 3 min all done. Thats not the point of the game and shouldnt be in my opinion.
During the halloween event i was winning all my games and was pretty relaxed as ghost face. I played recently again and suddenly the games were sweaty af lol. I figured mmr just caught up to me cause i only play the game usually once every few month's but this time i came back after only a couple weeks
No offense, Scott, but you're showing a huge chunk of elitism in this video. "I like to go against low level survivors so that I can relax and concentrate on my chat and get easy kills" It's like a rich heiress telling to a blue collar worker that she understands how hard it is to make a living and how she had to struggle through life also.
You haven't actually made efforts to get to the point where you are now. You were carried there.
And this is coming from a killer player. So not only are you insulting survivor players that go against you, you are also insulting also other killer players that actually had to fought to get to their level where they are now.
Attitude like this is the reason why this game's community is so damn toxic and entitled on both sides.
Theory: The halloween event flooded the game with casual players coming back to dbd, making the matchmaking more inaccurate, they are now gradually leaving, now the matchmaking is back to the state before the halloween event and now it just feels sweatier Could be totally wrong though, just aligns with my experience
I have been noticing something similar on the survivor side. I feel like I see more cracked teamates than I did before, but I still also have games where I feel like it's just me vs the killer. I have also noticed not necessarily better killers, but more killers that are playing to win at all cost (proxy camping and tunneling, stacking regression).
I had no idea the theory of MMR change was a thing before seeing this video just now, but dbd had been feeling different.
tbf i have had significantly less baby killers over the past few days and have been going against sweatier killers who will secure a kill within the first 10 seconds of the game, which makes it so much more boring bc i asked to get tunnelled, not camped out LOL
I'm not that experienced that the game but today was my first day trying killer after not playing the game for a year and I faced nothing but sweaty teams, I played 3 matches where I just kept losing before I gave up, killer just isn't fun anymore with this MMR stuff they added
I wonder if it's a PTB thing, a smaller number of people playing the main game while a PTB is on, meaning the pool of people you play against is smaller, so you're more likely to face people you wouldn't normally face, both better, and worse. Doesn't ex[plain it fully, but might explain recent complaints.

Any other Australians who have noticed the same?

came back tried 2 runs on killer 2 teams trihards back to back uninstalled it again.
At the end, the outcome of most of the matches are depending on the survs…
… if you don't (or can't) check their hours before.
Just so everyone knows. Mandy DID conform they tweaked MMR a bit
Oh no. Killers not getting 4k's every game and have to actually work for a W? The horror! lol 😅

Have not touch dbd for 1 year, this guy still alive? Lol
BHVR admitted few of hours ago that the soft cap was indeed increased couple of weeks ago
If they do this it’s fine, but make it a separate game mode or something

I'm a solo queue survivor. I've noticed a huge change in the quality of teammates that im paired with (for the better).
"Normally when I player killer I win about every single game"
I think Scott should tune into Scott's stream
