Borrowed Time got updated due to the automatic Haste and Endurance effect you get from being unhooked and Guardian should be updated too. Also I think that Guardian needs a Change because currently its just like a worse Borrowed Time. The haste is less than from Borrowed Time and having the longer Endurance is worth more than the Scratch Marks & Blood being supressed. Im not saying Guardian i0 comments 31 views last activity

TLDR: Tunnel, Camp, Slug What I mean by 'win' is have at least 2 sacrifices + 1 death by the time the game ends, although I'm mostly talking about a 4k. I'm going to type this out as if it's a guide because it's easy for me to describe and I'm being some-what satirical, but really I'm trying to highlight the reasons why I think killers win all the time now if they're ACTUALLY TRYING and not do37 comments 971 views last activity

Just curious what the red flags are on both killer and survivor as I'm a killer main but I'm only barely getting into survivor. What are the red flags you see that signify that someone is a bad survivor/teammate? Something that screams, "Nope! They're definitely going to die or screw me over." This is from the survivor and killer perspective14 comments 681 views last activity

Example: The Saloon gen on Dead Dawg. Without fail, my teammates do that gen early and basically hand the victory to the Killer because the rest of the gens are close together. This way my biggest reason for hating Hawkins Laboratory. There were 2 gens on the upper floors, and every match they'd get done first. Then the Killer can just go on auto-pilot and win.

Hey, it's me again. Everyone knows me right, I'm totally iconic, unforgettable. So anyways, let's just address the state of DBD. This update is bad and before people deadpan and scroll away, there's a reason why I'm saying it. The forums and experience of DBD itself is general miserable as is, between all the DC/Ragequits/giving up, the buffs, the nerfs and all the like.

When i try to see one part of a cosmetic skin in the store, the characters change their outfit into their basic ones instead of staying in the one they had before. Nothing was metioned in the patch notes so I assume it's a bug. Does anyone also have this problem? If so, i hope devs will fix it. EDIT: I saw someone post about this already in the bug section in the forums so nevermind.1 comments 31 views last activity

With the combination of regression changes and generator times, some matches just feel like they take forever now, specifically those where the killer is heavy on regression perks. Gets very boring frankly and I find myself just suiciding on hook most of the time.11 comments 191 views last activity

Why do Survivors run into a Nurse when Starstruck is active!? Just why... IF you don't wanna play then DC or just stand still and let her kill you BUT FOR THE LOVE OF GOD DON'T FARM YOUR TEAMMATES! These people almost make me reconsider and say NURSE IS FINE, IT'S BAD PLAYERS FAULT...Nurse isn't fine at all, i defend she should be killswitched but when people make the same mistake for an entire3 comments 61 views last activity

You be nice especially after how killer kind this patch was and don't camp hooks when you are at the point that you should especially against SWF or people who constantly BM for no reason. Endgame Chat: "Bad killer, l2p, get rekt, etc." You run same killer with tryhard mods or you do camp when it makes sense (2 people hooked next to each other by the most progressed generator) or you camp the p1 comments 71 views last activity

I see people mentioned incentives to play one or the other, and no-one ever seems to mention how one-sided these points are. As a survivor, I find it almost near on impossible to obtain the maximum point threshold (when it was 32k, no chance of 40k), but as a killer it was a regular occurrence that they scored 32k, and they still score consistently high. Sometimes the survivor can receive a highe11 comments 152 views last activity

Iron will nerfed. Spirit is back with a vengeance. I’m putting that 4% to the test…. Seriously, what an ass state the game is in right now for survivors. All I see are legion, spirit, blight… mostly running anti-gen… I’m trying to be patient with the patch but yeah… it’s not fun.4 comments 91 views last activity

I was messing around checking out data on a stat aggregator where people unofficially post their game results and it tracks everything. (I won't post the link because I believe the site includes Steam API as an option and the mods have asked not to include links to sites that use Steam API since it's not officially supported. So I'll just stick to talking about the statistics I'm seeing.) Mind yo0 comments 31 views last activity

Tomb 2, level I challenge "Use Dead Hard to avoid a basic attack by a near killer 1 time(s)" With the new update 6.1.0, any idea on how to complete this? My guess I need to spin and DH at the same time, and hope the killer misses during the 0.5 second window. It does NOT complete it taking the hit. I have tried it with OTR, but since endurances don't stack I am expecting the same results with10 comments 681 views last activity

Noticed this when I went to check out the new Dredge outfit. Previously, trying out a single cosmetic piece would preview it on the outfit your character is currently wearing, but with that selected category changed to the piece you were checking out. Now it shows that one piece on the character's default outfit, which is not remotely helpful if you're trying to determine whether something wil6 comments 121 views last activity

don't get me wrong the buffs also have their share that many survivors don't feel like playing their role anymore because they will get killed every round, most survivors are not good and can be tunneled very easily (fact) because of that most survivors have very big problems handling this, before they had at least DS-DH as protection (btw- the change to DH was correct, but not DS because the kil6 comments 81 views last activity

I’ll start. I weirdly like the hook spawns on the swamp maps. It feels really rewarding getting one of those corner hooks they only seem to spawn on swamp. One thing I dislike about the swamp maps is how hard it can be to see scratch marks.23 comments 241 views last activity

https://youtu.be/YgylLJbGmlA I thought it was a pretty good video and, in my opinion, most people playing survivor are in the they want a bit of gens, bit of being chased, bit of a break from being chased off hook, repeat. I'm in that group too but I do have to admit I like stacking OTR with DS for the satisfaction of knowing that if I'm tunneled I'm extremely annoying to104 comments 2,751 views last activity

I am currently running we're gonna live forever paired up with for the people. After I did a safe unhook rescue my we're gonna live forever icon lights up to tell me its active, but most of the time (about 50% of the time) the endurance status effect that is supposed to be given with the we're gonna live forever perk when I pick up someone from the ground doesn't work.

Shouldnt be SOLO-Q kill switched as well lol ? Its not playable, in my 5 games in row survivor who was first downed just DC or suicide on first hook. As SOLO-Q main survivor who loved this game, I just wanna do challenges, have little fun and go back to long que killer lobbies, play some killers while relaxing. Cant be penalty for DC increased somehow? The games r really bad for me.4 comments 101 views last activity

Then why does she get CRUSHED by survivors of equal skill like every other killer? If we match skill for skill, every killer gets stomped. Comp Survivors vs Comp Nurse... Nurse stomped like 9/10 times.17 comments 332 views last activity

Oni has a bug currently where they get double blood orbs, sometimes even triple blood orbs. The add-ons to increase orbs do not function either. Scott Jund has made a video about this, and since then, people have started to realize this is a thing. It's been like this for months, and it's not been fixed. Oni is way too strong to have a bug like this, it needs to be fixed ASAP. Link to the Vid16 comments 451 views last activity

Been meaning to make a post about this since patch, but my menus seems really laggy. By menus I mean stuff like hovering over my rift challenge on the right etc. It just looks jagged like its skipping frames, game runs completely fine anywhere else but the menu seems so bad.

Overcharges regression continues even after the generator has been tapped. Effectively giving a ruin like affect without a totem. I'm also pretty sure the effect stacks with regression. So for example, if you were to have the effect active and the jolt hit the generator, it would be regressing at 175 percent. 100 percent from jolt and 75 percent from overcharge.

I really think that the perk is strong since you are always guaranteed at least one link. But does it really need the reset penalty? It would make the perk a lot more common. This could help a lot with solo queue. I think the penalty when being hooked should be taken out.11 comments 111 views last activity

So I was experimenting with Hex: Ruin to see what kind of value you can get from it, and wanted to submit my findings. So I think that the added 10 secs to Gen repair speed kind of translates into a basekit Ruin for Killer. The thing is, this basekit Ruin, combined with the actual perk kind of equates into the traditional Ruin's strength. Now, Hex's are known for being unreliable, they can be25 comments 661 views last activity

Nurse and Blight have consistently been the game's two best Killers for a while and have been seen as the meta-defining Killers of the game. Although arguable, this hasn't changed even with the latest patch, since now Blights and Nurses have an easier time in taking out Survivors due to Generators taking longer to complete altogether. But this isn't the only problem that these two Killers hav32 comments 671 views last activity

I am Japanese and may use terrible English. Please understand. I just tested the reworked Spine Chill with a friend and was amazed at the results. Because Spine Chill reacts to stealth killers! It responded even when the killer was somewhat further away than 32 meters(maybe 36 m?), so perhaps the PTB specifications are still intact in the current version.

Cheating is already annoying enough as it is but for them to get 3 of the best health kits, and the best toolbox is just over the top .

Solo Q has always been the same. I would say low MMR solo q is really the only actuall disadvantage for solo survivors, but mid and high mmr solo q is not that mutch different before and after patch.

Usualy i played on killer 90% of time, but this entire moth i have been palying surv. After reading this forum for a long time i expected some tough games every match evil nurses, spirits, blights, insane pressure. instead of it 7 of 10 games are compelte garbage. I played vs some sort of dummy console killers half of them have only basic perks. Some stay afk, some cant make a single hook etc.2 comments 91 views last activity

JK we all are. So I've been playing survivor instead and escaping tons of my matches. It's not my best build, but I'm playing Claudette with a toolbox, prove thyself, built to last, lithe, and deliverance. Just re-upping my toolbox for each gen and bouncing over windows like there's no tomorrow. Escape rate around 35% over the last few days.

Playing with BBQ/WGLF was almost a necessity for me because I love accruing a lot of blood points. Now that the perks have been nerfed, the game definitely feels like more of a grind without it. It can take two or three matches to achieve what you used to be able to do in just one. I know BHVR said that they wanted to reduce the grind, but taking away the blood point bonuses seems to be the oppos7 comments 122 views last activity

I've always loved this perk. It makes typically boring M1 killers actually fun to play, but with the recent changes to base attack cooldown and on-hit speed boost it's a bit too strong now. The survivors get no distance at 8 stacks and I'm winning games with bad killers like pig and trapper against pretty good survivors that I have no business winning. Just please don't overnerf it, because lik3 comments 91 views last activity

Nurse has a lot of add ons that aren’t range or recharge! My personal favorites are spasmodic breath combined with bad man’s last breath! This combo disables your blinks for 1 minute after hitting a blink, but makes you move at normal M1 killer speed for that minute. Bad man’s last breath gives you a 16 second undetectable after hitting a blink. This combo messes with survivors in a ver6 comments 131 views last activity
