Is this game ever going to address how OP Billy Is?
Those of you who would argue how Billy is NOT OP, dont bother. You know you’re lying. Everyone knows it.
The fact is that most Biilies I play against over roughly level 7 can chainsaw you from short, medium, or long distances, in open areas or mazes, houses etc. If you can master Billy you are pretty much guaranteed 4ks every game unless facing a fierce 4 man swf. And heaven help you if you’re the last survivor and haven’t found the hatch. You are not getting out with the new Endgame Collapse. Hell ANY killer can cover both gates 75% of the time.
Im not saying it doesn’t take skill to play Billy, it does. But someone who masters a killer shouldn’t be guaranteed a 4k any more than someone who masters survivor should be uncatchable.
The standard high level Billy game goes like this: Game starts. Ruin is up. He races to a gen and downs someone. He’s running bbq. Not everyone can get to a closet. He hooks and races to the guy he saw with bbq. Meanwhile the 1st guy is unhooked. He hooks the 2nd guy and goes back to the first hook area and/or uses bbq. Repeat until all survivors are thoroughly owned. The main problem is the fact that good billies can chainsaw you at close range from a dead stop no matter the environment. When a billy races up near you and can then immediately rev up, and chainsaw you while you’re weaving around rocks and mazes is ridiculous.
I know to hide in closets. I know to dodge based on the sound of when he will get to you. Long distance hits aren’t the problem. Its the fact that all good billies have to do is get close to you and they will 1 hit you from close to medium range easily. And because they are arguably the most mobile / fastest killer in the game they can always get near survivors quickly.
Its at the point where i am deranking just to not deal with this garbage anymore. At higher ranks its all Billy, Nurse, Michael, Spirit, Legion... with OP addons (dont get me started on killer addons vs survivor addons).
As a survivor solo main I’m pretty fed up with the imbalances. While I’m glad for various improvements they make there are always new issues and old ones that never get fixed. Around ranks 7-10 there seems to be at least 1 dc every other game from getting downed right at the start and knowing you’ll likely be camped or tunnelled or its just feeling hopeless because its Billy or Nurse and the things already mentioned. Anyhow whatever. I expect no changes so ill just keep hoping for someone to create a better version of this game so i can quit this one.
PS - Just quit a billy game. Why? I run through a pallet as he revs up, I stun him but I’m still downed with 1 hit and pallet is intact. How does that make sense? Screw the godawful implementation of this game.

Because every killer should be a bullyable and loopable toy, duh.
That's what I presume to be their argument, but I'd still like an answer from them.
The worst thing about Billy is that he can whiz and heavily patrol areas a little too well. He could leave an area and be back in 10 seconds because he's already searched another couple of areas.
To answer OP's question..
How are noobs supposed to easily 4k everygame and think they are good at the game when in fact it is the character that is carrying them?
Smh,so selfish.
Easily one of the strongest killers. But nowhere strong. Not even nurse.
But he has tons of counter play...
Billy is the ultimate standard of balance every single killer should be in this game. Nothing about him is broken. He has a strong ability that provides map pressure and helps in chases, but can still be looped and it definitely comes to skill from both players when he can or cannot chainsaw you during said loops.
He's at his best in big open spaces, but let's face it, most non-stealth killers are.
Billy, Huntress in relatively open maps and even new Freddy on the reworked maps, for example, are what killers should be in this game power-wise.
EDIT: the only thing that could be op on him are his instasaw add-ons, but those are probably getting changed in the near future anyways.
Here we go Nurse is getting looked at now people want Billy nerfed. Honestly get some skill if you struggle against Billy he is loopable and mindgame able. Where the hell is my damn down vote for posts like this.
Some of the most fun, most balanced matches are good billys vs good survivors.
A lot of games against billy become stomps because he is very unforgiving of mistakes, and one bad survivor can mean your whole team is going down (common even in red ranks), but that's solo survivor life.
Good survivors against a good billy on a good map = how dbd should feel more often.
That had better be sarcasm
