Survivors got a new mechanic like a new item or looping tile to freshen the game play. Maybe even a new looping mechanic like climbing on things and sliding under gaps. And making new looping tile layouts. So we don't see the same jungle gym and t wall all the time. the loops don't have to be op or anything just something new for survivors. What are you guys thoughts comment on what you think abo2 comments 31 views last activity

I'm a survivor main at heart but have played killer before and been to rank one many times. My possible solution would be to make a teleport system. Where portals would spawn in the corners of maps. And killers can walk through them to teleport like the demogorgon but much faster to the portal on the opposite side or the map. This will give low mobility killers like plague and hag. A way to quick0 comments 21 views last activity

Being as they are horribly low n not worth even attempting instead of being total RNG can we get a skill check even if it's stupidly small and moving around the screen would make it more worth it then as is. N ofc if u fail like normal progress to stage 20 comments 31 views last activity

It’s violent game, we can all agree. So when can we see lasting damage on survivors? A hole in the shoulder from the hook. gashes and slashes from attacks. new killers that an hack off arms or feet to slow down their movement / repair speed. Once this is implemented, we can really diversify into entirely new play strategies!5 comments 81 views last activity

@Peanits @Almo So, I'm gonna tell you right now, if you push the Ruin change to live, the average game will be killers getting a single down in 3 gens, hooking, then getting into another chase in which 2 gens pop. If you are going to stubbornly and foolishly ignore generators and map setup as core issues, then you gotta gut the second chance perks, including NOED. You can handwaive this all3 comments 91 views last activity

Are there any changes for the incoming live version to the doctor that differ from the current PTB doctor? For example Interview Tape and High Stimulus Electrode combination not working on PTB anymore. (btw is this intended?) I've heard about shortening the time between shock theraphy and attacking and a fix for the delay when releasing shock theraphy.0 comments 31 views last activity

Wouldn't it be reasonable to invite the fog whisperers that are widely regarded as very skilled in the game to discuss what changes the game need instead of taking away the only bandaid fix devs ever introduced to game ending too fast just to see " How long will games last without being affected by the perk"? Off the top of my head I can tell you straight away that on smaller maps killer can ex0 comments 21 views last activity

I just thought of this in another thread. New Ruin, forces you to push people off the gens so that they regress. The problem is that most killers lack the mobility to reach 3 of the 4 survivors before 2 or 3 gens pop. This means that the odds of all the gens being completed is going to rise significantly compared to the past. Which means that more adrenaline activations are guaranteed for surv7 comments 541 views last activity

Okay so I made two forum posts tonight but whateva. Anyways will something ever be done about how hard it is to learn new killers in high ranks? I mean seriously if you're in red ranks and have to learn a new killer its so difficult since you just get demolished every game and can't really learn much.2 comments 51 views last activity

@Peanits I've sincerely enjoyed all the designs you guys have given Danny, but I was hoping to wonder if we can expect anymore for him? I'm really feeling for glow in the dark masks or anything the design team can whip up.0 comments 21 views last activity

Not trying to start any wars here, just wanted to emphasize that it was changed to take a serious look at gen times and see if they needed adjustments (baby steps, people). It's hard to take a thread seriously when 90% is concerning the change. Let the dev's do their jobs, after all they made this game 😁👍3 comments 51 views last activity

Can someone explain how in the hell this is fair? They reset the ranks and as a killer I get screwed with by survivors non stop in a match. This is why I quit playing. Also as a survivor I get tunneled and camped. I refuse to do that as a killer but I'm getting pissed off to where I'm about to say screw it and do it too 😠1 comments 51 views last activity

I've done one about the worst to face because of their power, mine being Plague because ######### vomiting that much, but now I have a different one...which would be the most unnerving to face? Not necessarily most deadly though for you it might be the same, but the most... unsettling. Scary, creepy, freaky...? Mine would be clown.

The survivors have been really toxic tonight. I don't use any tunneling or camping methods that would really be triggering yet they're all salty in the post game chat. It's kind of funny seeing rank 19 or 20 survivors complain about how awful their team was and then tell you that you didn't earn the win. Anyone else have some good salty survivor stories they want to share?17 comments 312 views last activity

Hello, I have always thought, why can't we play custom games alone as killer/survivor, it would be good to be able to test some perks and explore the map, why haven't the devs thought about this?11 comments 4,031 views last activity

It’d be pretty cool if BHVR had some type of chill server where we can just gather with a bunch of other Survivors and Killers while we waited for a game. Any ideas on what BHVR can implement to keep us busy during the long wait times?9 comments 551 views last activity

So I've been changing up my killer builds in preparation of the ruin rework. I don't like the new ruin and don't plan on using it. I'm not speaking for anyone else at all, and I'm not trying to say everyone will have the same experience as me, but I have to admit... There is a chance I may have overreacted just a lil bit. I play every killer except nurse in rotation. I have not played a killer1 comments 41 views last activity

I was thinking that they can put the killer from house of wax in the game, as well as the map from the movie. Just a rough idea no real perk ideas yet.0 comments 181 views last activity

I play survivor at high ranks and yeah it can get annoying to play against a good killer with ruin but I see why high rank killers run it. Just like survivors run Adrenaline, dead hard, Sprint burst, etc. If this ruin change goes through I suggest to take a look at trilling tremors and cruel limits as these perks have so much potential but they are not useful enough.

Everytime I see the Dev's tag on questions they always dodge or respond with basic answers. Like seriously we want a post about Gen-times or SWF or about the balance between killers. Instead all they do is reply to comments with answers we don't care about. Or when their being sarcastic to someone insulting them. What is up with that man?85 comments 3,391 views last activity

Finally decided to give one of the 3 killers a go that I haven’t played. i just want to say congratulations to these developers. They’ve made a seriously enduring killer in the Nurse.

I'm kinda just curious. I know, insta heals. But those were BROKEN. Ruin isn't a broken thing, insta heals definitely were. Hopefully killers get some frustration changes soon too :).24 comments 521 views last activity

So everyone has different ideas on who is viable and why...theres a few undisputed like spirit and freddy who were a smashing success. Now here is my question..who do you feel is weak..and who do you think could be viable with a small change?..for me Myers stands near clown for me in weakness..because he has way too much downtime..he can snowball but he has a weak and loopsble ability considering4 comments 81 views last activity

Has this ever been brought up and answered? I play on PC and PS4. I'd l Iike to play on switch so I can play while I'm traveling for work. I just can't bring myself to do the grind this game requires again. Hell I'd even be willing to buy all the dlc on the switch again as long as I don't have to spend the entire first year unlocking every perk.0 comments 31 views last activity

I have actually requested this a few times myself and am glad to see the change. There was really nothing else it could be. While it is sad this change does not come with the crucial base game changes I also requested, getting this implemented asap is better than waiting. Maybe Ruin change is sign of future map changes. Seeing the devs fix a problem gives me hope for this game, how about you?1 comments 31 views last activity

For the past year or two, Killers have said Ruin is a required Perk. So now we have a group of Killers who have run Ruin from Rank 20 up to Rank 1. This is part of the problem with the Perk. They never learned basic Killer mechanics that they should have and are being propped up by a single Perk. Why would you bother to learn to pressure gens early when you have Ruin to do that for you?

I was thinking that survivors would get a charm that looks like the gears symbol for rank 1 along with the date of last rank reset or the date that you actually reached rank 1. It would be the gears and inside of the gears would be the numbers, for example, 1/14/20. For killers, it would be the same thing but change the gears for the killer symbol for rank 1. Idk I just feel like reaching rank 137 comments 1,093 views last activity

Why is the discussion seemingly so one sided on this subject? The overwhelming majority of unfun strats being criticized belong to killers (tunneling, camping, ect.) and survivors don't get scrutinized for their cheesy tactics (gen-rushing, infinite looping, etc.). Survivors still hold much of the power in match outcome, so why aren't they called out for sticking to god windows or clutching the63 comments 914 views last activity

The claim that the Devs are Survivor sided also includes the claim that the Devs will implement features such that the Survivors become more powerful given their implementation. While it's easy to just point towards a list of Survivor buffs and declare that as the proof that this is the case, I don't necessarily think that's the case.

This has been fixed and I was being stupid and looking at my video from two different killer that were running the perks in different loadout order. I am basically stupid.

I know this is pretty stupid. It's just a quick thought as I have to get back to work. But im sure guy guys can make so thing of this. the idea is that that the killer can make a decision to stick to a chase or move on to a different chase immediately removing somone from a gen. Say it may only activate if a Chase last for to long? :P don't hate5 comments 91 views last activity

As r20 survivor, it's ridiculously difficult to escape when your teammates are noobs and the killer even has a slight hint of an idea of what they're doing. There's always the hatch, but only one person can escape through it, generally. Whoever gets found first is generally dead since low rank killers almost exclusively like to close proxy camp everyone they catch, and low rank survivors don't16 comments 791 views last activity

You know. I dont know what u all think a win is but im pretty sure a 4k in 3 minutes is one. They played toxic as hell and threw themself on me to get a unhook. ended with a 4k after 3minutes.

Have totems all give a 5% slowdown on generator speed for each totem remaining on the map, all totems will be lit (up to 25%) - This will be baseline (No perk required for this) If this idea is used the following changes to hex perks (removing the hex from them since people will now be looking for all of the totems actively - thus ruining any chance for them) Devour hope - Whenever the survivor2 comments 31 views last activity

I asked a question about matchmaking on the Q&A thread but my comment was deleted, so I thought I could start a discussion here. I know I’m not the only one frustrated by the matchmaking. In most matches, as a killer, I get games where I’m going against survivors of a MUCH higher rank and am stomped on, then made fun of after the game.

So, I am a survivor main (Rank 1) and when I heard the news it kind of upset me. I get the devs wanting it not to be crushing for new players but... sink or swim. A lot of new survivors will go against new killers. They won’t have hex ruin. I played the game and learned. I searched the maps and learned the spawn points. I lost games cause I couldn’t find the totem and we got no gens done. But I p4 comments 92 views last activity

Off topic; this is my 100th post,so wahooo!!!! Into the real topic. I've been looking around forums,left and right and everyone that is mad about the ruin changes say the same thing; "devs don't play their game,devs don't listen to killers".

So this has been on my mind a lot..after my initial "What are they doing ??" Reaction to the new patch i got to really thinking as to what could be done..find some way to make the game better out of this..my last idea was for the egc..but never got to hear what the devs thought on it.

Hello Everyone! This is my idea on how to rework toolboxes without making them useless and without making them unfair and cheesy... this idea will rework every toolbox from brown to purple. with their add ons as well. The Issues with toolboxes are the fact that they can stack with way too many things such as resilience, prove thyself, 4 ppl working on a generator with all that is mentioned. oh0 comments 31 views last activity
