  • Especially for survivor, killers have their own killer power that makes them unique outside of perks, but for survivors, teachables being a thing made it so each survivor plays the same exact way and there is no reason to choose one over another.

  • It's a shame most people don't like the map, but imo it's one if my favorite maps to both look at & play in. I think if people just gave it a chance, maybe bring some RPD offerings when it gets re-enabled, you'd appreciate it a little bit more. It has one of the best structures in the entire game too

  • I remember thinking his chains were alright during the PTB but now after playing him and against a lot more, it just feels like chaining a survivor does next to nothing. You lose a lot of distance just using his power and even when you're close, survivors still get away pretty easily. The fact that they can still drop pallets and vault them is really bizarre and makes it feel pointless to use i

  • I've watched and read a lot of discussion about how certain killers have one thing going for them and it's that they can easily win chases that makes the gens go fast so they can still lose but at the same time it's not fun to be chased by them. So..... What is something a new killer can have as a power that isn't just I shutdown a chase and I have overall control of the map and game as a whole

  • I had a terrible game as pyramid head. His trails and wave just felt different than usual. It could have been just the horrible map we were sent too. Is there any known bugs with PH since the chapter release?

  • If a survivor has a key then killer has the right to tunnel them cause they could end the game against the killers favor too quick. Also if a survivor has decided to become a aggressive flashlight savior particularly with a powerful flashlight with strong addons then they’ve made themselves a major threat to your win and can be tunneled. Im not saying bringing a key or flashlight saving is toxi

  • I was playing a match today. Started working on gens, and our Jacob got downed after completing a generator. Kindred showed me that it was a Wraith, and that he was face camping the Jacob. I thought about saving him. Yet I kept working on gens. I saw our Nancy try to go for the save, but she couldn't reach him without dying. I managed to get four generators done, but unfortunately the Jacob died

  • @Peanits In the 5.2.0 developer update, you said that you will take the data from SBMM to do balance changes for killers, using the stats from the top 5% of players. But....in the recent past you guys said you won't balance this game for the top % of players. So, what's the truth? What do you mean as "winning"?

  • Can some of the devs tell me why there should be such a secrecy with the mmr score? I'm pretty sure a dev won't comment but would be nice if they clear this up. I mean, in every other game with a ranking system (mmr not the grades/ranks) they just openly show the mmr score to the player self. Not towards other players, which tbh i care less about, but i would love to see what my own score is a

  • Only I'm just here to say that it has been working fantastically for me. In fact, I'm a little low on the killer side - Everyone's been bringing in keys and medkits and, you know, those perks , but I mostly just keep on killing. Hopefully my mmr on my mains goes up a bit, it's certainly not fair. But I haven't been getting babies in my trials either, these folks know what they're doing. And my

Im silver 2 and I got a 4k but still, first game trying to aim that hook whilst facing a but 3 man Bill swf 😅 Landed the first few chains easy, felt good, then I got complacent and missed the next 30 odd 🤣 P.s - Why does pinhead look like a dork?

Share your own, critique what I have here, I'm just posting it here instead of on the steam forums in hopes that A: it reaches better eyes and B: the conversations here are much more civil.

  • if title is true why does half of my team hide all the time and do litterally nothing, while im across the map being tunneled to death hook. yet this is meant to make the game better, im red rank, the killer is red rank, my team is urban evaders who hide even on maps you can see the killer for miles on. why.

  • More tunneling more gen regression more noed usage less lower tier characters being used its beautiful 🤣 Edit: So now what happens all killers get nerfed or do lower tiers get buffed and using the sbmm data do we try to finally do something about adding a second objective or making map sizes smaller if they want to keep gen speeds as they are?

  • At the 5 year anniversary, I was truly hoping the devs would say they were going to discuss changing the amount of new content they add to the game - mainly new Killers. I was hoping they would acknowledge the over-saturation of Killers. Right now, there are just too many Killers, and several Killers that all basically do the same thing "power" wise with a few tweaks. So many Killers collect du

  • Eventually the sbmm data will force the developers to buff lower tier killers. What do you think? Without variety I am sure more people will get bored with the game. I will use trapper as an example: Have trapper be able to carry 2 traps at base. Apply deep wounds to an injured survivor stepping in a trap (how are they not downed seriously) Increase his setting speed time Take the rng out o

  • The fate of pretty much every game to ever incorporate a SBMM system has been to either die due to it become a unfun sweaty mess or get rid of it, and BHVR are many things but stupid enough to let their best and only successful long time game die before it even reaches a decade old isn't one of them i'm going to be very generous and say the system has until the end of next year, but it probab

  • Personally, they should spawn like hex totems. Not to be chosen. Not sure how they’ll work: it’s only used one time like hexes. Maybe killers can corrupt boon totems for their benefit. I wonder what lengths survivors will go to protect the totems?? what are your thoughts on them??

  • Recently, since the addition of mmr, I decided to try out some new killers. What better time when the mmr is going to be seperate, right? I got absolutely destroyed. I’m not saying it’s because survivors are OP or that they’re a comp team (I’ve no clue if any of them are swf even, I didn’t bother checking), but I’ve played about 6 games, even with my mains, and I’ve felt horribly outclassed.

  • As a Pinhead fan, I loved stepping up behind those foolish enough to open the box and recite the iconic quote while doing so. However, since they removed the voice, I've completely lost interest in Pinhead as a Killer. I guess i'll just stick to my usual Characters then. Such a shame, i really liked him. 😕

  • Both Trickster and Pinhead have situational at best powers in jungle and pallet gyms while having a pretty good power at small loops. The biggest thing differentiating their 1v1 powers is that Pinheads chain slows while Trickster deals damage and can't pass through walls. Other than that, the most efficient time to use their powers is similar: Use while at unsafe loop or while Survivors are rotat

  • I found a "guide" that's literally just a copy/paste of the wiki's article on the subject, including the images used on the wiki. The guide "creator" is taking full credit for it and raking in the benefits, even though it's 100% stolen. So, can BHVR do something about this? I'm guessing the answer is "no", but you never know.

  • The mods can come in here and say "oh we're actively looking for a solution" "oh we're trying our best". No you're not. Stop lying to us, and to yourselves. If people can stream live on Twitch hacking and not receive bans, then clearly they just DO NOT care about anything than the money they make from us. IT'S INFURIATING!

  • Not like anyone can de-pip right now from rank 1 iridescent, but see rank 1 killers all the time still just face camp or do that stupid little dance around the hook of that one survivor unfortunate enough to get caught at endgame. They don't even try something new or be sporting; gambling for more hooks and points. There is absolutely zero risk right now for doing so. They prefer to loiter aroun

I cant help but remember when back in the day she would actually have some sort of stealth when chasing, as her Lullaby would actually go away, and she would instead just start breathing really heavily This would help her synergize with Beast of Prey, (its not really a helpful perk but it just seems even more pointless being her own teachable) and o

  • I asked this questions some months ago and got interesting replies. Sone said they go for winstreaks. But now with the mmr, its a lot harder to go for winstreaks. So i lost my goal. Or you could rather say i have no way to measure my skill with every killer anymore, not that winstreaks were really optimal. So what goals have you? Did MMR change anything for you in this regard?

  • Removing chains is the same button as vaulting, so I’ve vaulted several times when I didn’t want to & died because of it. How long will it take for nonsense like this to change? I genuinely think the people in charge of this game need fired, they can’t do anything right. With that said, pinhead is easily the best killer they’ve made since Oni. Everything after has been garbage or almost ga
