    Why?
    DBD is a game where you can 1vs1 the killer, the high rank player keeps the low rank killer occupied and the bad survivors hold M1 (thats not too hard to pull off)

    I mean rank doesn't mean much now especially with how easy it is to pip now..

    Recently was playing with a friend who just started dbd since it was a free week. Is it wrong for me to try and help a new player get to grips with the game faster and try and make sure they have a fun experiance?

    I mean despite me being rank 1 we lost quite a few games because regardless of how good you are as a survivour the killer will have a lot of time to down you with lower ranked teamates who miss skill checks remeber in dbd the weakest team member will pull the entire team down.

    That being said we still had fun and im glad i could help make him have a fun experiance considering how awful my first experiance was playing the game.

    I was probably a little harsh, since there is no other way to play with friends but it can mess up the game for me if someone brings survivor new to the game and we face experienced killer.

    Sounds like you need to HATCH an escape plan.

    You know, when I first started this game and I had <30 hours as killer, I use to hate SWFs that brought high ranking teammates into the round. I use to get bullied, looped for days, gen rushed and pretty much 0K those rounds with the exception of sometimes killing the low ranking teammates.

    I'm still not saying it doesn't suck for new killers to face these types of SWFs, because it definitely does. It takes a lot of the fun out of it especially when you jump out of the 15->20 baby bracket. On the flipside, facing survivors with half a brain and decent perks really helped me improve as killer. At one point, a "killer switch" just flipped and I started to actually do decent and learned to mind game survivors. I was able to easily soar to rank 1 thanks to these improvements over time.

    I know it's not the salt you are looking for, but hang in there it does get better.

    There needs to be unranked mode that isn't invite only, and after a certain rank can't have 4man swf. This will help with balancing

    It doesn't get better. Other survivors can mess up your game if you are going solo. It's a fact.

    Yeh, but that creates the mix ups! You never know what you're gonna get. Survivors are supposed to ne unreliable, swf was added later and killed this balance and gave an edge to some survivor teams. If you person found ruin, everyone found ruin.

    And other survivors can save the day. I've been saved by a random Dwight bodyblocking for me while I got an RBT off my head (last box I checked) and ran out the door the Dwight opened before saving me, killer just made the wrong choice going to the other door on the other side of the map to chase the other one out if they had 1 sec more they probably would have got me again. I've also been farmed off the hook and my match ended in 1 minute in a solo match. Part of the fun playing solo is seeing how well you can work together as a team. And part of the fun playing SWF is seeing how we all mess up sometimes.
