  • I started playing killer only 1 or 2 months ago. Since then, I've seen a little success with The Trapper, The Cannibal, The Shape, and The Spirit, but I've seen, comparatively, mountains of success with the Legion. I was a hardcore survivor main before this, of maybe 3 or 4 months, so i knew plenty of what survivors typically do during chases/downtime/etc. And since i started playing killer I've

  • I hope that every Killer will have in the end there own, thats something small but can add alot of variaty to the game. Imo Killers should also have a own gen kick animation. Its boring seeing always this pallet break animation over and over again. The new breakable walls aimation is a nice start and I hope the devs will continue with that to other actions. You can see some footage on Paulie Est

  • Hawkins is the most survivor sided map in the game imo. 0 hooks on the second floor 3 pallets in every single hallway and 2 pallets in every room And with the huge debris everywhere it is impossible to play efficiently as oni and Billy. If you dont think this map is survivor sided your not past rank 15.

  • I honestly think that a team with 4 solos should be somewhere near a swf group. How? Give the solos the same advantages (or at least try to). 1.) As a solo you already know when the obsession is being chased. This entity smybol (or whatever it's called) moves. Give each survivor such a symbol, so that every time someone is chased, the other ppl should know. But if all survivors get this symbol..

  • Anybody got any idea what's up with matchmaking these days? I'm hovering between rank 12-13 killer, just had a match with a 2, 4, 5, and 6. That's not uncommon for me lately.

  • i think it’s funny that people think this game is going to die...when in fact it’s doing very well even before this pandemic it’s Peak (On steam) was 31k Ish and that’s just on steam ..there’s probably a lot more on ps4,Xbox there’s also switch and phone if you put all these together then that’s a lot of people

  • Keys, SWF, mori and certain Killers' ultra rare add-ons For every normal Survivor it is very very frustrating to be moried by hard tunneling Killer. Mori is uncounterable and just unfun. The same issue with Keys and SWF. With recent gen speed Keys often grant nearly free escape. Keys end the game for Killers prematurely like mori does it for Survivors. They both are bullshit. SWF literally br

  • I’ve played this game with some of my friends since the beginning (2016), when it was really fun. But we all stopped after a year, when this game become “only for the killer’s fun”. I thought this couldn’t evolve worse, but here we are 3 years later when as a survivor you literally have no chance against a killer, nor fun playing. I’ve returned to this game a week ago and the first new thing I

  • I just went against a huntress with iridescent head and ebony mori and also had a ping of 9000000000 so it was horribly laggy. I messaged them after NICELY telling them to maybe not play killer with bad internet. Obviously I can’t stop them for doing so but yea. He then proceeds to message me saying im a big cry baby and that I just need to get better at the game because I was bad. I’m just like

  • Hi everybody! So I'm a longtime player and visitor of the forums, but I decided to finally make an account, and for my first post, I decided to share an idea for a tweak in the game that's simple, and I think would be really fair! When I play as a survivor, I have had many matches with some great killers, but also some killers that use strategies that can really downgrade the quality of gameplay

  • I'm not going to go into depth about a particular side. Making a balanced asymmetrical game is difficult. The problem is: people are getting tired of the imbalances that lie within. It has been said "If you don't like it, play another game". Well.....Other appealing options are becoming available and many people are walking away. Bhvr has been aware of the unfairness for a very long time. Changes

  • I'm so tired of dying over and over trying to play solo survivor because I always get degenerate teammates who either always let me go to second state when I get hooked or sometimes just don't rescue me at all and make stupid plays like unnecessarily wasting safe pallets or going down within seconds of being in a chase or not doing gens while I'm keeping the killer busy. One would think that me b

  • I know vaulting isn't the safest method of surviving especially when killer's distance is in question but why is it that from yesterday up to now I'm getting hit through the window even after I finished the fast vault animation and already running away? I don't understand. The best part is that sometimes the killer swings early and the weapon doesn't hit the window opening o_O. U may say it's lag

  • So.. Devs if Dead Hard isn't broken, but can someone explain how latency comes into effect with it? You activate Dead Hard, the exhaustion phase activates, you get hit by a killer and yet you still get downed? However; the perk specifically states "you avoid damage", so if the exhaustion phase activates that means you activated it before getting hit by a killer. Even if it was before the dash ha

  • They're all M1 gamers used to relying on Thanatophobia and only having to land one hit. A lot of plagues aren't even good with her real power since they've never really had to use it before. And with the recent changes plague can have a decent stock of fountains even if no one cleanses so why not? It's a free heal

  • You had a game where a survivor finished all 5 gens without a killer being able to get a single hook? There's so much yelling about how Survivors are OP, Gen Rush, have too many 2nd chance perks and need to be nerfed constantly.. But how often do killers get a 4K before a single gen or only one gets done, compared to survivors getting all 5 gens done before a single hook is made?

  • But Spirit doesn’t. If Legion hits a survivor with a basic attack, he loses some of his power gauge and is unable to use it until it’s filled back up. Spirit is already stronger than Legion, but for some reason Legion gets a cooldown for doing his job...

  • Bamboozled to block windows against red ranks. Save the best for last is good but use it to attack everyone in the beginning then attack the obsession in the end when they all die so you don't lose tokens. Blood warden so if you are in trouble against red ranks it will save you get couple kills if you was not able to get a kill. Make your choice is good on him because you can go back to the pe

  • Sometimes, I get amazing survivors, as in their attitude, no toxicity, then other games I get horrible survivors. I was doing that key challenge, in the tome which is quite difficult, and because I escaped with the key, the killer and my "teammates" are telling me I deserve to die. Why is this community so bad I get told I deserve to die because I'm using a key, doing a challenge, like what is

  • T'is a simple but very effective suggestion: gates that spawn very close to each other should only have 2 lights instead of 3, meaning you can prep the gate 1/3rd before a single light glows up, giving the survivor a slight bigger change of being to escape when the gates spawn too close to each other. gates that spawn very far away from each other, should have 4 lights instead of 3, meaning su

  • Imho, SWF are a necessary evil. You cant avoid ppl from playing with friends, but it totally brakes the game mechanics (in-built Empathy, Kindred, Bond, and a looot of other data perks), team mindgames and tatics for killers. So, why should BHVR buff solos to get them as strong as SWF? I mean, you cant nerf ppl just cause they wanna play together, but some kind of rework should be done about

  • Really, I wonder why straving is practically impossible. Thats not how physics works. If you have a straight force and apply a force sideways, you dont keep moving straight, yet this game, physics appearantly doesnt exist. I get that straving too much can be too strong, but on the other hand, you should be able to move more than 5cm left and right. What else is the point of a breakable chain, wh

  • DS and BT are necessary perks, however they are heavily abused/kind of useless in normal situations. You have survivors hookbombing and sprinting toward you to take a hit because they have BT and survivors playing stupidly and going out of their way to use DS just to waste your time. It's very unenjoyable to play against as killer, and a cheap and boring way to play as a survivor because you know

  • First a couple things, I do run Inner Strength quite a bit especially with Detective or a Map so I consider it better than SC for me, and I almost never run SC anymore unless I'm doing a meme build. But are they really that different? People who run Self-care are ridiculed and Inner Strength is considered by many to be almost meta if not quite top tier. Self-care takes 32 seconds, barring Slop

  • A little bit after the ruin nerf I needed a break. Like a serious long term break. I have played the random match here or there but I went from playing daily/every other day to maybe once every 2 to 3 weeks. I was burnt out and frankly the amount of stress that was being put on me as a killer would make me physically ill. I just couldn't have fun anymore. So I took a break. In that time I have do

  • This is like, a super small change/set of changes, but as a legion main, here are some things they should add/keep/fix. Mending- Make it so the mend time still goes down when mending, similar how to the pig's trap timer still goes down while you're trying to find a key in her boxes. KEEP the fact that it does NOT go down when in a chase, though this is obvious. I'll add more changes in the com

  • So TLDR, I stopped playing a few months back for 2 big reasons. 1. Game Balance 2. Queue Time The dev team seems to have been much better with balance as of late, I'll give them that. Queue times however, I would regularly wait over and hour for a rank 13 killer game. Have queue times gotten better since then or should I just cut my losses and stick to WoW?
