Wiggle

Just return the A/D system, cuz´this one with skillcheks is so useless. Few years ago, when I played, it was a challenge to wiggle but possible, now it´s entirely impossible to do... It feels like killer can carry you trough entire map few times before you´ll get off him... This new wiggling system is so trash🤮

what

wiggle times have not changed

if you were failing at the a/d’ing without a real life reason, that is a skill issue if I ever heard one.

That is pure perceptual bias at work.

You were physically doing more work thus your mind believes you getting better results, but the truth of the hard numbers is that it is taking exactly the same amount of time as it did in the past to wiggle off the killer's shoulders the only thing that has changed it that is you no longer are doing the same level of physical work.

It has always taken 16 seconds no matter which system was used.

The Wiggle Mechanic, also known as "Wiggling", is an integral Game Mechanic in Dead by Daylight that is only available to Survivors, and only whenever the Killer is carrying them. Whenever a Survivor is being carried around by the Killer, the carried Survivor has the option to struggle against the Killer, which is called "wiggling". The Killer can pick up any Survivor in the Dying State and carry them around (ideally to a nearby Hook).Killers can also interrupt Survivors who are healthy or in th

Easier on my hand, far easier on my controllers/keyboard.

Two words my friend:

Skill Issue

I prefer the new system but not for the reasons others are stating. The new system is amazing for certain quests like "perform x great skill checks". But yeah, it is also far easier on my controller too.

According to the official wiki it has been 16 basically the entire except for when you could shave it down to 15 seconds by hitting the the wiggle skillchecks when they first added that system in. They removed the time save though so it is 16 seconds no matter what again.
