Is it even fun to play Killer anymore?
I play on console, and here in the past few games I've come across it's always been an SWF(4 person). Gotta say before I left this game I was getting at least 2 people sacrificed per game, now, ever since I redownload it, I can't even get one sacrifice. I don't consider myself the best player, but I'm not the worst either. I definitely have more hours in Killer than Survivor. I get the game is supposed to be balanced and all, but it just doesn't seem too fun to play Killer anymore. Gonna have to move on and be done if this keeps happening.

You may just be in a higher mmr than you need to be. Keep pushing through and it should get better man. Don’t worry about “winning” every game, but focus on just learning new tricks and having fun. It’s nice to just relax and play.
What killers do you play? How do you play them (camping, tunneling, survivor rulebook, 12-hook playstyle)? For example, if you go for 12 hooks, the games will certainly be more difficult.
Just play for 30 more years and you'll have fun at least once.
killer has its moments
Funnier than survivor, that's for sure. But if you don't have fun, maybe you just tired with DbD. Stop playing and return in a few months (when next chapter will be released, for example), you'll be fresh, rested and ready for new matches. It works with all games I play.
Im not having fun either and its mainly the maps I get paired with...like why am I getting Eyrie of Crows more than any other map!?
My other issue is just that I havent found a suitable main for me....I just bounce around playing different killers and no matter how good I am with whatever killer, I still get stomped sometimes.
This update was sold like "Killer sided" but I always said it wasnt. Basekit BT is huge.
And the nerf to Dead Hard while good, it did not nerf the perk to the ground like happens when a Killer perk is nerfed. I could name a few but I don´t think there is any need.
Survivor have so many immunity hits they can take, plus boons to heal, weapons, etc. Surreal.
Yeah i never run to them in my games tbh as a survivor :D unless they are that blendette claiming the hatch and consider it a win.
If you play nurse I believe you but with other killers that not possible unless something is very wrong with your mmr or you are one of best killer players on dbd and you should stream.
Which is evidence only of a bad MMR system. You should be getting challenged as killer on a regular basis, especially if you're testing out new builds. If that's not happening, it's probably MMR not doing its job. I can't blame SWF for all my losses anymore, because the solos that have adapted are nearly as strong as 4-man SWFs.
The game can be very not fun for people who haven't played in a while, or who are brand new to the game. For some reason, the game pairs you, a supposedly lower MMR killer, with survivors at that same level, but I've heard constant complaints from those people about getting nonstop bully SWFs when they queue up, yourself included. The truth is that mid-MMR killer is the only place safe from that, because it seems to have semi-consistent matchmaking. If you're not there though, because you're too high or too low, you're gonna be getting constant sweats who will barely allow you to get a kill or two.
No, it´s huge because you have 20s immunity with BT. And because it guarantees you safety in the event of unsafe unhooks and allows to bodyblock, etc. Sure, you can trade for the unhooker, you are still playing cheap by your rules.
But if we are talking about "relying in cheap" how about playing using Voice Communications (Discord)?
Borrowed Time was an issue before yes it was. Abused by SWF even today. However, it was nerfed and Survivors have so many more powerful toys so they can abuse. Because basekit BT is a thing Survivors have a free slot.
Meanwhile... The Trapper...
BT was used offensively together with other perks such as DS and even DH.
It was used by SWF all the time even with unbreakable to ensure they can unhook Survivors at will, etc. Specially in the end game.
I don’t think there has been a better time to play killer in the past 3 years, than now. You MMR may be too high like others suggested. Try playing a new killer to hopefully offset that. Or at the very least, play one that you’re familiar with but didn’t rack up too many hours on. Maybe MM will cut you some slack, like it was intended to do.
So in all of your matches, you never got an inkling that your survivors might be playing bad? They couldn't have run better perks, they couldn't have been faster on gens, they couldn't have played loops safer, none of that?
It's too good to believe. Too convenient for the argument you're trying to make.
Killer is more fun than insta-losing when the 1st guy to go down gives up. That happens a lot these days.
My games have been much harder in the past 1-2 weeks. Survivors and the game seem to have adapt in a few ways:
Depends of which kind of survivors you get. Confident and good solo survivors are always fun to go against, SWFs with the same attributes aren't (mainly because some things like Undetectable almost have no impact on SWFs and they usually tend to troll. But sometimes that trolling results in them dying, which is kinda hilarious and satisfying to see). Also I don't enjoy matches were a person Dcs very early because I outplayed and downed them. But overall it's still enjoyable, but not every killer is (*trapper without good add-ons*).
That applies to Survivors as well, and no, you haven't lost. End game perks exist for a reason.
But I am curious, by "play smarter around" you mean tweak nVidia settings or go full Discord?
I wished most killers understand that tunnel, slug for 4K only increase their MMR that they're not supposed to be there.
Not really. I win most of my games pretty easily and sometimes get stomped by really experienced teams or when I make tons of really bad mistakes/get robbed by the game/get robbed by cheaters.
I miss Ranks and I miss pre 6.1.0.
Maybe not on console. Poor optimization, negative fps, and limited to only controller is a bummer.
