Miss penalty for legion

no i have adapted to legion and i never miss my feral frenzy unless they dead hard, and i happen to chain attacks now thanks to the killer instinct lowered so it is possible that legion is one of the better killers in the mid tier.

The only thing i have not adapted to is playing against lag spikes. It's like random lag spikes but happens most when i teleport as nurse or a survivor vaults a window. I can't hit when i should have hit because of lag. And no this isn't only on legion it happens on every killer and survivor but it hurts most on legion because i main him and he has a long cooldown that is IMO fair if i can use my hit chance. It's terrifying to know that a random lag makes me miss an attack so now i have to chase that person healthy when i should have injured and they have a huge distance advantage. I have tried limiting the fps to 30 from the game config file, with Nvidia inspector and also MSI Afterburner and the addition to MSI Afterburner (forgot its name), but the game still has random lag spikes which kill my pressure because of the 4 sec stun. It makes legion unplayable sometimes and i have to now get off or switch to Ghostface or Myers because they don't have a miss penalty and even if i lag miss when they are vaulting a window, that survivor is still exposed.

  • Ghostface does have a miss penalty, actually. if you are currently stealthed and perform an offensive action, you lose stealth whether or not you land the attack.

    Maybe Dedicated Servers could improve your experience, assuming all goes well

  • yeah it’s pretty bad FPS drops on ps4 whenever an exhaustion perk is triggered.

  • It is not the ping, it is my computer that lags randomly and regaining red stain in a chase is not really a penalty, but being blind and not able to do anything and moving 50% for 4 seconds is a penalty in a chase

  • Get closer, within Deadhard bait range, before lunging. If you lag just go straight.

  • i dont care about dead hard i am complaining about the optimization issues it is impossible to hit someone when i lag because the game basically pauses for the lunge and comes back and i have attempted to get used to it but i just cant its lag impossible to counter my own machine

  • Maybe Dedicated servers will normalize the lunge behavior better? We do know that's on the way now.

  • Welcome to the console user's daily life.

  • The only way to fix this issue, would be to take that stupid stun out, because there are way too many reasons why a lag can happen (internet in general, user sided and dbd sided when the dedicated servers come out).

    It would be a good way to take them out anyways, because drawbacks are no fun (surprise, surprise, who had thought this?).

  • feelsbadman i've given many chances to this new legion but even as a proper old legion player i still don't feel satisfied as much as old times but i don't want to turn this into another rant post bulls*it so here you go

    also Dedicated servers won't fix lag on the client's side devs pls fix your game already many unfair bugs going around in addition to the optimization oh and also killer queues too idk if its ghostface or not but look into it if u arent already ty

  • Well. You have my respect for staying so long with the new Legion. I had already enough after the first match with the new Legion.

    The only reason why I had make a few matches more is, because I wanted my vengeance on this nerf crying survs and I had my vengeance thanks to a stack full of moris :).

    It had its advantages, to use mostly no addons and sacrifices until the patch day sinister smiling...
