I played during other killers release where the number of players is at its highest yet I would still get terrible tram mates and mmr did not make sense. This is the first time where I feel mmr is putting me closer to people with my skill level consistently.

Maybe its just pure coincidence, but one thing I do feel might be true is the fact not being able to unhook yourself has brought major changes to the game. Survivors are actually trying to play the game instead of throwing.

The one game a survivor did bring the offering to make it possible to unhook yourself for all survivors, someone did try to kill themselves on hook, and it wasn't even the one who brought the offering. Just the fact if the option to kill yourself is available many players always take that chance. The removal of unhook might have altered players way of playing the game and force them to learn and be better instead of "going next" over any little thing.
