Just finished reading the new patch notes for the next mid-chapter. Apparently the devs want nothing more than for the survivors to sit there at the generators. Healing has become a luxury, DH obliterated and gen regression perks even more destroyed. Hold on to your index fingers guys, it's time for m1 more than ever.39 comments 1,452 views last activity

I play both survivor and killer but I mostly play survivor and truthfully I’m quite glad they nerfed DH and the reason is because I mostly see players who waste a perk spot for it while never timing it right or the ping screws them over and a lot of different things that might happen to make it useless unless you’re up against a trigger happy killer. Regarding the gen reg perks the nerf was ove4 comments 91 views last activity

Getting the annoying part out the way first, I say survivor main just based on hours alone but of my 4.5k hours, I'd say it's about 3k survivor, 1.5k killer (rough estimate) so I've played a decent amount of both. I only say that because I know the community likes to immediately dismiss thoughts from people who ONLY play one side of the game That out of the way, here's my thoughts: Bloodweb an0 comments 41 views last activity

What does Myers have? Semi stealth. exposed M1. Obsession add-on. How to improve and use those? Surge/jolt is first, he's always doing M1 and only will do M1 so surge/jolt is ALWAYS triggered and so you always have value out of the perk, always, so not using it is a big waste + it's a great way to know where other survivors are, if they work on a gen nearby you'll know and you can go for th30 comments 621 views last activity

I'm seeing a lot of disagreement with BHVRs desicions when it comes to medkits right now, and while I want to see them in-action before I agree or disagree with the changes, there is something I think is kind of nice: The fact that BHVR has seemingly promoted altruism by having Medkits buff the speed in which you heal others (COH's change does this too). I feel like this may be a nice upside5 comments 61 views last activity

So I finally got a PC, and I was hoping I might be able to play DBD on it, but it just sucks that I won't have any of my data from Xbox if I'm 100% honest. I saved some BP on the game since I had it when I still had my hp office laptop, but considering there's no data transfer, I'm kinda at a loss :/0 comments 11 views last activity

the New bloodweb function is a good update but that was the best thing after so many updates and this game keeps worse from update to update for survivor. I will never played this game after this update. It’s impossible to play survivor after this update1 comments 32 views last activity

Title. I don't watch content creators, but I would like to know if they are still getting DDoSed after BHVR investigated themselves and found themselves clear of all wrong doing. Or is the whole issue just going to get swept under the rug like always? Pretty good timing on that mid chapter plans release...3 comments 91 views last activity

I truly believe if bhvr fixed the skill based match making they wouldn’t have to nerf anything. I play both survivor and killer and the only time I have struggled to counter something is when the other side is clearly much better than me. Even in those situations I try my hardest but ultimately just take the loss and move on. I think with a better skill based match making we would have less peopl1 comments 21 views last activity

Late to the party just been reading the changes so new meta this is my thoughts: For killer with big nerfs to gen kicking + pain and the survivor nerfs to healing I'm thinking Corrupt, Deadlock, Sloppy, Franklins sounds like a meta build to make it even worse for survivors with healing and still having something to deal with "gen rush" which will be worse. Survivor probably a lot of SB which I13 comments 281 views last activity

Fix the maps, make more safe loops unsafe, give base kit BBQ, give anything. Killers who usually tunnel - will tunnel. why? cause it's the easy way, if it's the most easy way to win. even having no pallets at all in the map - some killers will still tunnel someone to death, which will break the game since then with the nerfes maps and loops for survivors, 5 gen tunneling will be literally uncoun45 comments 2,871 views last activity

There are a lot of good fixes in this update and then some things which are really out of left field. The biggest problem to me is many of these changes seem like they were based off of some spread cheat a number cruncher came up with rather than listening to the player community. If something is not broke don't attempt to change it. Meta isn't bad if the Meta works and makes for a fun game. Just0 comments 51 views last activity

So after the eruption change, which was completely justified but horribly executed, I and some others foresaw that pain res was gonna get nuked, when I said that a lot of people on here told me I was delusional and they won't do that, that all that was doomsaying and that we had to be realistic, LMAO all I can say is LMAO.42 comments 1,231 views last activity

March 2023 update:. No more add on on health kits. Only one heal regardless of type. Boon circle of healing, no heal with med kit. Dead hard, no use unless u are in death hook. Killer, no nerphs. No end still running with no changes. So behavior only listens to the killer mains that play dirty and when they get owned they cry, cry, cry till behavior gives them easy button.

The new meta will be anti-healing and survivors will hate it more than 3 genning. Now that many gen regression perks are dead (i'd argue pain res is still fine when paired with my current combo of Thrilling/DMS/pain res/fearmonger, because if you use it 4 times you probably already got a lot of value) But overcharge being deleted, and CoB being deleted, killers have little to no decent gen re30 comments 711 views last activity

With a ton of good survivor perks and killer perks being gutted, people will start using other perks that will completely ruin the fun of the game. Every survivor will run adrenaline, and any genrush build, because that's really all you can run now as they have gutted basically everything else that was useful on the survivor side.

To start, I want to preface this by saying it is good that BHVR is taking the time to give the game much needed attention, and almost all of the changes within their proposed PTB update are good and healthy. However, there appears to be a trend developing in these updates that indicates a misunderstanding of the games fundamentals, or a far more dangerous road; challenging anything which be2 comments 91 views last activity

Summary for people who don't want to read : killers and survivors get nerfed hard (no more 3-gen, no more dead hard, no more healing), I predict the best options after the patch for survivor become doing gens only (no heal no boon no nothing) and evading chases (stealth/running early) / killer options are camping and mass slugging (survivors will heal very less often, and evade chases when given0 comments 31 views last activity

Nuking these add-ons won't fix him, please if you really want to go through with these changes, give Hillbilly some base-kit chainsaw movement speed buffs in exchange, because without these add-ons, he's just not fun and feels like crap.6 comments 111 views last activity

So the killer is slugging the second to last survivor on the ground and full on slugging now here's the thing you can't just go and rescue them because that's a death sentence basically the killer can simply down you and the other survivor getting the 4k. So the only solution you have is basically wait because you know that the killer will just slug the last survivor until they find you. Now her2 comments 71 views last activity

Don't listen to them, don't change it, let it go live. This is by far the best patch we'll ever get. I play survivor mostly and I'm GLAD that they nerf these perks. I'll gladly exchange these busted survivor perks and items for the regression perks. I'll even say, nerf BNP while you're at it for the perfect balance. Please, and, thanks.12 comments 411 views last activity

Interested to hear thoughts on the changes, both good and bad. Personally I think some of the perk changes might be a little overkill. I also am not sure how I feel about the rework of med-kit add-ons. Circle of Healing definitely got what was coming though.62 comments 1,352 views last activity

Healing will take much longer to do. All anti-healing perks were unchanged, meaning any perks that increases healing on top will even more demotivate people to heal. Most of gen protecting perks got heavily nerfed. Meaning killers will have less time in the match and feel more under pressure. = Killers will want to tunnel more / effectively camp more because gens will go faster than usual bec5 comments 101 views last activity

Hello fellow Knight players and welcome to my guide. Im going to make this post as simple and short as possible. Now, I know a lot of people say that the Knight is weak and that all you need to do is hold W to counter him or that his only good use for him is to place down guards to force survivors out of loops blah blah blah we’re not going to play him like this because you’re not using him c2 comments 3,254 views last activity

Why not just start with a medkit nerf and see how that goes first? Nerfing circle of healing and regular altruistic healing speeds on top of medkits and medkit add-ons?

Just curious what the logic is about this. If a Killer has a super low pick rate like Billy and the Twins why not spend the effort making them more fun? Doesn't that make more sense from both a gameplay and business perspective?5 comments 141 views last activity

I do have to say it is really amusing to see the baby army here and on Twitter crying about the nerfs that will come soon. But I find it also weird that they where not expecting these changes. Bhvr already nerfed meta stuff in the past and stuff like Circle of healing and Dead Hard where in every single round.

With the new healing changes, nerf to CoH and Med-Kits, as well as the added condition of a safe unhook to activate dead hard, I feel like We'll Make It is about to skyrocket in popularity. As it is right now, it's already a pretty good survivor perk and I see it somewhat frequently in my matches, but with the proposed changes coming this PTB it seems like the perfect perk to speed things up.

And I'm not even a fan of DH. I hate that perk in fact. You can literally negate insta-down powers with it. So I wanted it to change. And it did... just in the worst way possible The way I wanted it to change is by making it so it cannot tank against insta-down powers. That's it. Nothing more, nothing less. This would make it the most balanced and fair exhaustion perk in this game. But what the42 comments 4,613 views last activity

Alright, my first discussion since serving my month in the hole. So there's this notion I keep seeing in the comments of the recent changes. Apparently Hit & Run playstyles are bad? What? Why?

Really not thrilled about a number of the changes proposed for the upcoming PTB, on both sides. Some of the changes (like those to Call of Brine and Overcharge) seem pretty ok. I don't use Dead Hard so I can't really speak to that. The two changes that are most concerning to me are those to Scourge Hook Pain Resonance and Circle of Healing. Here's why: Pain Res - only allowing four activations p7 comments 131 views last activity

We keep seeing perks/addons/mechanics nerfed (often to the point of uselessness), simply because they had high usage rates. No consideration as to why they had high usage rates, and often nerfed/removed without any consideration as to what anyone is meant to have fun with in their place. A meta shift has no value if it's directly less fun than before. Like, I just don't get what people are sup5 comments 222 views last activity

Playing survivor is miserable because every killer is more interested in immediately tunneling and camping (which they can now do freely with the DS nerf) someone out at the start of every match, and then dragging a match out forever with free and infinite regression. Never committing to any chase that they can't end in 10 seconds, because they can't stray too far from their gen kicking simulator40 comments 1,251 views last activity
