I started playing at the weekend with my teenagers, we've agreed to only play DRG when we're together so no-one goes off ranking up too fast which is what happened when we played Valorant.

We've selected classes somewhat randomly, I'm playing engineer, they are driller and gunner.

After about 3 or 4 missions they've got to rank 4 and I'm still on 3. I feel like they're getting more kills because they have more killy weapons (waaagh), is that what the rank system is based on?

If so, have I chosen a class which is slower going or gets better late game? Or, does it not really matter as much as I think? I can see that ranking up means better upgrades, presumably therefore more kills so it could be a feedback loop.

Overall we've found it to be great fun as well as a kind of chaotic, screaming mess!

That's odd, all xp and credits are shared by the team. Your individual kills have no effect on it. The only one who would be slightly ahead is the gunner because of xp earned in the tutorial.
