Stranger Things isn't enough to save this game tbh

There's a new chapter coming up with 2 new survivors, a new killer, and a new map. sarcastically whoo-hooo yadda yadda. New players will come in and everybody is gonna be happy. I'm gonna look so fresh in my new Steve outfit while the killer sits there and reads me the Red Riding Hood. Yeah no Camping is still a huge issue this game has.

I don't wanna hear the textbook answer, just work on gens, run borrowed time, distract the killer. Blah blah blah tell me something new, you cannot expect new survivors especially ones coming in for this new chapter to sit well with that. Camping is not a tactic a killer sitting there hitting a survivor repeatdly isn't fun its just sadism on the killer part and discouraging on survivor part.

How do you expect to keep a fanbase of survivors around when the only thing they experience is 2 minutes of face camping, and if they do get unhooked immediate tunnel vision (somebody cue Justin Timberlake) that will push people from playing survivors and guess what happens? Longer lobby waiting time again whoohooo.

A lot of people agree camping isn't fun and isn't fair there was a perk that was strictly for countering camping but surprise surprise killers whined and moaned and it got nerf, and no it is not still viable in a unhooking situation because it's a ######### trade off and discourage alturism and you need those points you know...

Anyways rip me a new one below <3

    "How do you expect to keep a fanbase of survivors around"

    by releasing new chapters , dedicated servers, the rift 5head.

    hardly anyone can properly facecamp anymore and true facecamping means you LITERALY cannot be saved.(which has been patched years ago)



    what else are you gonna complain about?

    It honestly looks like the issue is you

    lol what this chapter is gonna expand the playerbase probably by 20 to 30% more

    This, Stranger Things is a huge hit for Dead By Daylight! :)

  • How do you expect to keep a fanbase of survivors around when the only thing they experience is 2 minutes of face camping, and if they do get unhooked immediate tunnel vision

    Well here's the thing: That's not what they experience at all.

    Of course i can't confirm this, but people bring up the bad SO much more than the good, which is a reasonable thing to do.

    After all, the good is just having a normal match, and no one's gonna go to the forums and say: "Hey everyone, i just had a normal match."

    Sure, some are more than likely going to be camped and/or tunneled, and every now and then, we'll see someone come in and saying they got camped to death 5 matches in a row.

    But i believe most new players neither get camped/tunneled all that often, nor do i believe that they will be discouraged so easily.

    Again, sure, if you look at negative reviews, there's probably some with just a few minutes or hours of playtime, complaining that it wasn't fun.

    But then there's also the many others who still like it and don't care about writing reviews.

    Lastly, keep a fanbase? It's been VERY consistent over these 3 years.

    We haven't even gone under 10.000 players without things like the game's birth or Steam being offline.

    Considering BHVR have different games such as Fallout Shelter, WarHammer, and Deathgarden etc, Dead by Daylight isn't the only source of income they have.

    Those other games are different teams of devs my dude and DBD is by far the largest source of income.... at least that would be my guess....if you're going to hang around with rank 10s or lower dont expect much from killers.... down there killers always gonna camp

  • Game modes

    Daily spin- able to win a random cosmetic piece, a one off Bloodpoint sum, limited xp bonus, 5 random add ons for each killer, 5 random add ons for each Survivor, next spin rewards double spin again.

    Something to keep you coming back a little more.

    I can complain about plently of things like how does the game still have bugs from 2 years ago, why can't I get a killer lobby under 5 minutes, blah blah the issue is the game, you can do the "its just you GIT GUD" rhetoric and blame survivors for why the game is they way it is. That is lazy killers complained about flashlights, DS, BT, vaulting, SB, Toolboxes, Pallet Vaccum, and etc. THOSE ISSUES GET ADDRESSED, but one issue that is camping what the devs do, "just work on a gen, it's not an issue deal with it GiT gUdZ" If you can legitmately prove my claim false (which you haven't) you can have all my cosemetics if that makes you happy. Dedicated was suppose to drop this summer never happened, watch it won't drop this year either.

    20% maybe but 30% that's too much even for dbd.

    Honestly, from the track record of OP, I won't even try to reason with him\her.

    "There is a lot of thread being killer main complaining and shutting other people down. So I have to make survivor sided thread and shut down other people." This is not the way to go.

    I'm not even shutting anyone down, what I am doing is correcting people on their argument if you come in here with no proof and make bold claims, then guess what I'm gonna correct you.

    Beginners do experience this otherwise I wouldn't hear the usual, OMG KILLERS JUST CAMP ME AND WON'T LEAVE!!! IM DONE WITH THIS GAME!! You can tell me all day that killers aren't camping but witnessing it all the time kinda stifle your argument.

    As far as long time players they're just in a abusive relationship where they're always playing not to have fun but to continue to grow. Those are dedicated fans ya know the ones that's been around for years they can't just cut their ties to the game but new players can and very easily, If you put hours and money into this game you're not gonna just leave. Also the average is 20k not 10k.

    It used to be 30k on average but that dropped drastically since May considering the game was actually growing.

  • @Raptorrotas said:

    Funny how people talking in favor of survivors always start bringing up those crazy "killer buff claims" once they start losing their arguments.

    Increase in speed, Lunge buff, Hooks literally right next to each other, totem placement buffs, noed buff(nobody asked for this), ruin buff, EGC, Hatch closing animation, let's not forget the buffs killers recieve that the devs omitted to it. Survivors got like what a buff to Deja Vu ohhhhh wow.

    I know how to make a build, otherwise I wouldn't claim Overcharge and Huntress Luallby to be so weak.

    You clearly don't since you believe Overcharge and Lullaby is weak, killer perks have their usefulness you just might be too buns to get your build off.
