People that want matches of higher level can just set up private matches.
I believe this interests players and developers
What does that mean?
Think of chess: it is the competitive game par excellence.
But even serious e-sports competitions are also done publicly and by equipping players with the same software and hardware devices.
You can’t have ranked system when random bugs can decide the course of the match.

Things don’t have to be the same I’m order to be balanced
As long as two maps are equally balanced they both can be used simultaneously in a ranked mode
Same with OBJ
As for loadouts, figuring out what is and isn’t a good build, either through practice or looking at the meta, is a skill on its own.
I’m totally down for something like that!!
The only ranked videogame competition I know are the public LAN tournaments.
first thing iffonic should fix is the game. by the way is it too big a game on maps to fix?
So iffonic would take a decade because predator has many maps right?
= pitiful to see the predator locked in buggy trees after months of sales

Wait so a ranked mode is entirely dead?
Let’s just ignore Siege and Overwatch and CSGO and even DBD which all have ranked modes that are done online
ranked in this game is bad idea for these reasons
1)the game is unbalanced (squads can destroy 99% of preds no matter what )
2)this game have low number of active players (waiting times for 2 different modes will skyrocket )
3) with crossplay disabled you just fucked pc players
yeah no purpose in that
I mean: if I want to compete, I compete for money. And for that you need a public lan tournament (no cheating, no exploits, just pure sport)
There’s no purpose for games in general
You need to practice and prove yourself first
And what about people not good enough?
Do they just not to be competitive?
I guess only the top 1% get the right of having a competitive match
It’s impossibile to have proper competition if you can’t check the partecipants
It’s called SBMM
And if your talking hacks it’s called anti cheat
There’s literally ranked modes that work
You have no basis in theory or practice
There’s simply no professional competition outside LAN tournaments, period.
Every other “ranked” mode is a joke ;)
and what about macros
Don’t do ranked playlists, do a trophy wall. Leveling isn’t content but challenges not only feed into the main gameplay loop but can be an avenue to gain rewards to entice players to come back and not split an already niche audience.
To further this I’d add prestige if we REALLY had to do something with leveling.
But in the event of a trophy wall you’d have a series of challenges the player can complete for a mixture of experience, currency, field lockers, or cosmetics. In doing so the player has more to do than just running dailies or going for trophies because the player needs something to chase. We need and want something to work towards.
For prestige if you really had to do it would be to reach level 150 but you have the option to start over. This locks classes and items until you return to that level but every time you prestige you unlock a new cosmetic. An idea is that this is how Master armors are unlocked where once you prestige players have a skin that flaunts that time spent.
Presitge 1 - Master armor
Prestige 2 - Master mask
Prestige 3 - Master shader
Prestige 4 - Cape accessory
You get the idea. You have something to chase which doesn’t split the player base.

Prove your point, period.
Let’s take the pistol macro
Patch the pistol to have a maximum fire rate
Every macro that allows you to do things that you normally can’t can be patched out with changes like these.
That’s great…
How about forgetting this story after these new terrifying bugs. ?
Ranked in asymmetricals sucks like no other because its built around the team of 4 making mistakes and thats the only thing keeping the solo player in the match. The window of opportunity gets smaller and smaller the better the team of 4 is and once they’re playing like counter strike bots its a wrap.
does anyone actually enjoy DBD ranked aside from watching a number go up
is it worth sitting in queue dealing with discord meta premades every single match just to have a 1 by your name in a casual 4v1 game?
Every match whole game mechanics become WORTHLESS like melee in this game or skillchecks in DBD
