Killers deserve better! We must start a strike!
Ugh. If you've been here for even a little while, you've most likely have seen BHVR giving more and more favoritism towards Survivors while leaving Killers behind. No amount of promotional art or whatever can convince me that they actually don't care. I don't need to go on and on and on about how it started. You already know.
The Black Banquet, funnily enough, ripped off BHVR's mask on showing what side they really love. Killers just get a bottle of poison that gives temporary limited stamina bar. Survivors gain things that I'm surprised were fully implemented! Invincibility?! Unbreakable pallets?! This is just unacceptable! And I know that BHVR will implement invincibility and unbreakable pallets into future Survivor perks. Even without those abilities, the most recent Survivor shows the amount of favoritism BHVR has for Survivors rather than Killers. They don't even listen to Youtubers that revolve their content around the game!
They aren't listening, so I propose a deal:
Us Killer players and anyone that disagrees with the current state of the game should uninstall the game until enough people get BHVR's attention. We need to spread the word of how unfair this is to the playerbase. We won't get anywhere if we don't something about this. This is something we can do! We need to tell them how we feel! Enough is enough! Killers should be treated the same way as Survivors. Toxic Survivors wanting wins handed to them are ruining the game and we NEED to do something about this!
Share this however you want, as long as we get the point across!
Comments
Something else I've seen: on official Steam forums they post, they aren't even giving people the ability to comment on the current state of the game! The won't even let people voice their frustrations! Spread the word! Spread the word!
At the end of the day survivors are the majority of the player base and most have left due to the toxic killers, the slugging, the tunneling. All of our stuff has been nerfed to crap and yet killers get buffs some nerfs but not as many as survivors. I don’t get why killers are so pressed about this event anyways. Y’all get base kit poison and we have to run to tables, get food, run to the main table, all while ignoring the main goal, which is doing the gens. You killer mains always complain about gen rushing and this gives us something to do other than that.
And also I get it killers don’t want to play the event, then why queue up for it? Oh because of queue times? I mean just like any other game if you are fed up, go play something else, touch grass, or just get better. The poison makes survivors incredibly slow. I’ve played many killer games on the event and had no issues with getting a 4k. And that’s without slugging, tunneling, or camping. Just gotta have good game sense. Love when us survivors finally get something it’s just such a huge issue. lol !
Also, a post like this violates the forums rules. Trust me I know bc I did the same thing with survivors and got a warning. So please be mindful of what you post.
Listen, if BHVR caused MintSkull to take a hiadous because of the poor state of balance, then you know you ######### up. Yeah so? The reason why we get the 4k is because we play against bad Survivors. When we play games against Survivors that actually know what they're doing, it is BRUTAL! And all these new Survivor perks are getting crazier and crazier. And Survivors could just IGNORE the food and do what they normally do. When the event ends, you'll see how brutal the Survivors can get, especially with the newest healing perk from the latest Survivor.
You at least see my point, right? That Survivors are getting handholded while being a Killer can be miserable, right?
Yeah, killers deserve a 70% winrate instead of the measly 60% they have now in order to make amends for a totally optional event.
”most have left due to toxic killers, the slugging, the tunneling?” Do you have any evidence for this? Also, how is the player count at an all-time high if most survivors players have left the game? I’m struggling to understand how the math works there.
It’s 60% kill rate, not win rate. Those are very different things. But I do disagree with OP that the game is ridiculously survivor-sided.
I play killer about 50% of the time and I’m having fun with the game. Based on the all-time high player count and killer queue times longer than I have ever seen them, all evidence points to the fact that most other killer players are enjoying the game too. If you’re frustrated with the game, it’s probably best to take a break, but most others are probably not going to join you.
Same thing. If you are killing enough people that you are getting that 60% average you are winning most of your matches or getting a tie. Either way it shows how killer sided the game is on a fundamental level.
The game is supposed to be slightly killer sided by design. Killer is a far more stressful role as it requires you to keep track of 4 other players, while as survivor you only need to keep track of the killer and if you know someone else is being chased, you can relax while holding a button to progress the game. BHVR targets the 60% kill rate for a reason - so people actually want to play the killer role. When the average has dropped below the 60% rate in the past, there was a huge deficit of killers and super long queue times for survivors. I remember waiting 15-20 minutes for survivor matches during peak evening hours. The queues are much more reasonable now.
Killer is not a stressful role at all lol. Seriously survivors don't have an automatic win button like killers do. All you need to do is camp or tunnel at you get at minimum a two kill. Throw on noed and deadlock and you are gonna get three or four. Super easy.
This is just you saying: when I play against players worse than me I win. When I play against players better than me I lose. Which is what's supposed to happen.
Small differences in skill in this game result in big differences in how trials play out. That doesn't make your opponents bad, this game just snowballs for one side or the other.
The exact same thing happens for survivors. When survivors face a killer worse than them the killer gets run for five gens. When survivors face a killer better than them everyone dies with many gens remaining, its BRUTAL as you put it. That is just how this game tends to play out, close matches are rarer than blowouts unfortunately.
That's before talking about how bad matchmaking is or the fact killers have more ways to snowball and can start their snowball from a much worse position then survivors can. Unless you are one of the best killers in the world facing one of the top survivor teams in the world the trial most likely favors the killer.
Maybe you don't find killer stressful but most people do, I certainly do. I find I have to try harder to win on the survivor side but that doesn't make it more stressful.
None of that is an I win button, its highly dependent on the skill of the survivor being tunneled and the killer tunneling them. IF they get the tunnel out it might not be fast enough to secure anything more than that one kill. I can agree that if the killer gets the tunnel out very early into the match the rest of the survivors are probably trapped in an unwinnable match but victory isn't totally out of the question. The game should do more to give survivors a reason to continue trying in that situation but that is a general problem with the game.
Just curious - do you actually play killer? If so, can you share your kill rate stats? Just wondering if you are basing this on your personal experience.
On occasion yeah, I kinda got bored of how easy it was to win so I don't play it too often. After like fifty games of winning and only like one where I lost it's just dull you know? With survivor it's a lot more of a challenge so I play it more.
Hmm 50 wins in a row? Do you have stats that you can show?
Honestly while I find the poison pretty boring it's actually pretty strong, the abilities almost don't matter except the invisibility (by now I know what to do about it, still annoying) and the portals (combined with the invisibility insane).
Obviously there are differences in servers, times you play, mmr and so on, but for my part I have a pretty good killrate. So I really don't know what you really mean.
I didn't play too much in the last time, but it's really not that bad. Also I play jason mostly, but it's not like I would really struggle with other killers I'm good with so that's not the reason I'm good right now :D
