Now that bhvr has killed dead hard, and shortened the time it takes to catch up to survivors. By this they have made it easier to get bloodlust, shortened the time to break pallets, and shortened the time in between attacks (even more so with STBFL). They should revert the exhaustion mechanic to how it was back in 2016-2018. That it recovers while on the move.21 comments 161 views last activity

Dreadful armaments: You know how to get the most tools from your surrounds and preserve them to inflict suffer on your victims. Each time you hook a different survivor gain a token. At the end of the trial earn one add on according the number of tokens. 1 token: 1 Brown add on 2 tokens: 1 yellow add on 3 tokens: 1 green add on 4 tokens: 1 green add on you wont lose the less rarity add on at0 comments 11 views last activity

So here is this cocky team, killed three by camping two, last guy was waiting for hatch. Which I closed. Since I always run Whispers, I found the last guy near the gate and put her into the dying state. Then I thought, screw this, let´s give this last one the gate (which I very rarely do, I don´t do free escapes). So grab the guy, let him escape from my grab. Guy goes to open the door...

Is there a Master list somewhere that clearly and succinctly states what every perk change is? I find what I'm learning comes mostly from streamers. I'd kind of like a manual for myself. Sure, I'm a Solo Q player, so I'm dead no matter what, but I mean, might as well play around and all that type of thing. Does such a thing exist? A comprehensive guide to all perk changes? Thanks in advan7 comments 81 views last activity

Considering the forums are currently filled with hatred for the new update (which personally i think is unjust), i thought maybe on a calmer note people could share new builds they've come up with for survivor or killer. Personally i've been using for survivor: lightweight, botany, lithe and (of course) off the record For killer: Wraith with serpent and shadow dance addons, with eruption, overc14 comments 111 views last activity

Until now I have left the characters who I don't play (but want their perks) on level 40. I recently saw this update and a post saying to prestige that character to get to prestige 3 for the update to keep tier 3 perks. I did this with as many characters as I could in the 2 days I had. But now I am left with 7 survivors and 9 killers who I didn't have time to prestige, and their perks have17 comments 631 views last activity

This was just a small thought as I was looking at all the hook charm, specifically the perk charms. The idea basically to use charms on your hooks to trick survivors into thinking you have certain perks when in reality you aren't even running them. Using the noed charm to force survivors to waste time trying to find all the totems? I don't know, it's just a stupid idea for a little mind game3 comments 41 views last activity

Where in the patch notes did they say they were RETIRING OLD MAP OFFERINGS?! Why did you do this.. these were my equivalent of legacy. I would use these every once in a while but now I can't.7 comments 211 views last activity

Instead of quitting because iron will is no longer 100% silent or DH doesn’t give distance etc try swapping roles and observe from the killer’s perspective. we all knew these changes were coming and had ample time to adjust game play and experiment with different perks. Killer perks are changed way more often, everyone loves stomping on killers as it’s a 4v1 game. how about play the game redis44 comments 701 views last activity

The 'total darkness' was meant to make the game scary and obscure Survivor vision. Yeah, it is hard to see things, and it is also extremely irritating. I struggle to see things to the degree that the blackness makes my eyes hurt and quickly tired. I cannot enjoy the game's atmosphere when almost everything I see is just blank black which make me experience physical discomfort.14 comments 401 views last activity

Solved: it was a server issue. Please archive or delete post Since the update I tried to select "play killer" at home screen. Then it would act as though it trying to start the killer select screen, then it just stops as though I didn't select anything. I rebooted and it let me into the killer select screen once (long enough to see my killer prestiges). then I exited, tried "play survivor" sa0 comments 11 views last activity

I have started seeing a lot of people mentioning "forever legion/plague" recently, and I was wondering what kind of build would that be. This took me to the question of which other builds have these "nicknames" and what do they do exactly.2 comments 41 views last activity

So I was hooked at the end of the match near an open gate. I realized that I’m not so sure the killer could really do anything to stop both of us escaping except a successful grab for the survivor saving me since I have basekit endurance after being unhooked… what else could an M1 killer do?4 comments 41 views last activity

If a Pyramid head camps a cage currently it moves. Since the Mid-chapter update I have seen a huge rise in camping (Especially killers with Deadlock). Do you guys think that the hook should move if the killer is camping and no survivors are nearby the hook?0 comments 11 views last activity

I want to stay on lvl 50 Bloodwebs as long as I want. I dont care about a number next to my name which is absolutly meaningless for me but also gives killer an advantage in the Lobby knowing who to target and who to avoid.0 comments 21 views last activity

To be honest, I'm not going to sugarcoat things, I know I'm not lower MMR, but honestly being at lower MMR feels refreshing, because I'm not bullying The Killers I'm playing against, even though my teammates aren't helping too much it just feels a lot more relaxed down there, I do not want to go to high MMR. Hell, I didn't even use DH other than challenges, it's nice down here, and even though s0 comments 21 views last activity

Survivors was using second chance perks for so long, they just lost their grasp of their mindgames or looping skills. It's clear: they were getting carried by these perks so they got pretty lazy about thinking of their success of reaching this pallet or window. Properly hiding from killer and etc... Now they're losing chases and outraging on killers 10% buffs and 2.5% kicking gens. -_- Without50 comments 881 views last activity

I understand they're now part of the generic pool, however, those of us with the DLC have the old icons and designation that they are, in fact perks attached to a specific survivor. With that said, can't they come up with a way to recognize the DLC and grant us the tier 3 version instead of a permanent tier 1 version? Or allow people with the DLC a way to buy the tier 3 version permanently.3 comments 61 views last activity

Howdy folks, I'm not here to antagonize, but to contextualize. Killers just became stronger - Survivor's best survival tools in the game just got nerfed. SBMM doesn't know this - and is pairing survivors and killers as though nothing has changed. The calibration is off because it needs to intake match outcomes in order to observe and adjust matchups accordingly. Corrections are painful and frust34 comments 691 views last activity

Serious question... Every killer I've come up against is laughing at me, because I Dead Hard to the window/pallet, but can't use it, so they just down me. I'd love to use the perk as a reaction, but network latency and my 190ms (0.2s) reaction time make that wildly impractical. The lunge animation is 0.3 seconds, therefore I have a 0.1s window in which to Dead Hard. Factor in network laten10 comments 221 views last activity

I was playing as a Bubba against at least a 3 man swf that were macro clicking and were actually very good at looping, but they would frequently go into lockers and be completely immune to me picking them up since their teammates were lingering in range to go in and get a completely free save, why is it survivor teams can just get in lockers and killers can't get them out of lockers and literally12 comments 181 views last activity

I swear I'm just super unlucky. Isn't she supposed to be super common right now? Everyone else gets games against her, why don't I? I just wanna play against the love of my life, is that too much to ask for?

I played the new version of killer for a while, on red rank. My conclusion is that the real toxic that breaks the balance is SWF. SWF has the highest ceiling on both sides. Even nurse main is hard to play against a top SWF. The kill rate they called 50%, is just either four kills, or four escapes. If survs are solo player, then it's four kills, If survs are SWF, then it's four escapes. Now solo1 comments 71 views last activity

This is the greatest and the best update that this game has ever produced. The game feel so fresh now with new perks to test and for new strategies to discover. I have 2+k hours but i have a feeling like this game just came out, As a killer i was mainly playing nurse and blight however after the patch and dead hard nerf playing any killer feels so much more better (thanks to faster recover and0 comments 41 views last activity

you're here good, now read below and tell me your opinion don't get me wrong it might seem like what did was harsh on survivor but if you never noticed survivors were always kinda of above killers when it came to certain things and now that killer and survivors are about the same ground everyone thinks that survivors are weak which they are not, you can still loop, you can still do a lot40 comments 811 views last activity

Unfortunately with the updates new players wont stick around for very long. When a new player comes to the game they are very limited on the perks that they have access to. By nerfing key perks such as iron will it makes it much harder to learn the game and the mechanics. This puts all the decent perks behind a pay wall. Not to mention with the killer being so easy to play any new player that p61 comments 2,061 views last activity

Seeing a lot of complaints on here about survivor being unplayable at the moment and I really don't understand it. I've been playing SoloQ and have escaped 8 out of 11. Gens are still flying pretty fast because I've been using Prove Thyself and going out of my way to find other survivors working gens. I've also been using Lightweight, Lithe and Windows of Opportunity. I know every game is diff32 comments 491 views last activity

1). Without DH, tiles can no longer be greeded without fear of going down. 2). Going down is way more impactful due to increased gen times as people are forced off gens for rescue...obviously more impactful if there are multiple solos in the lobby. 3). Presumably, downs will occur at a more frequent rate, compounding the time/pressure crunch of the above point. 4). Pallets are considerably mo20 comments 281 views last activity

I'm not sure if this is a problem across all platforms, but I play on PS4 and the constant freezing every time I select something on the menu is awful. It could be something as small as selecting a perk slot, and the whole game will freeze for a second or two. I just want a smooth menu like every other game has. Have they ever addressed this lag, and do we know what causes it?0 comments 21 views last activity

Hey! So, this perk actually recieved a small tweak that not many people have noticed yet so I wanted to make a thread to get the word out. When you enter the effective range of the perk, you receive a little notification: I was playing some solo Q and one of my teammates had it, when I got within range - it activated and showed me this. It lingered for0 comments 31 views last activity

As a solo survivor, I have to say after this update it doesn't feel like gen speed was increasedat all. I've played about half a dizen games and they feel 80s to me when I'm repairing one on my own. Anyone else notice this, or is a 10s increase just not that noticeable?28 comments 841 views last activity

What have you done, BHVR... Every game I've played so far in solo Q was buffed Thana + sloppy + camping killers... even camping nurses. And gens take ages to complete. Literally ages. Let alone the fact that every random in solo Q wants to be altruistic at the same time and they stop repairing gens because of the lack of information we have as solo Q players...23 comments 591 views last activity

Map design is everything, and while there are random elements (such as how many pallets spawn and tilesets, etc), a lot of maps still have really strong structures that either spawn facing into one another or are just strong on their own (Garden of Joy's Main Building for example). Increasing the rate that you gain Bloodlust just enforces how awful these maps are, there is no mind-gaming a lot o1 comments 51 views last activity
