Your team doesn't have to die, they just need to get hooked. That is a massive difference. People can still survive and win the game with 2 hookstates

That's exactly it… If you got tokens on kills I think that would be kinda fair.. it still feels like a comeback mechanic of sorts, but it would be a good counter for killers who tunnel a guy from the start of the match.

Also, the fact you're removing charges of the gen instead of just having faster progress is just too strong… there's literally no way to counter that, no matter how much gen regression you have.

DC penalties take longer to decay, and require multiple matches played where you don't DC to decay.

Simple.
Make it reportable. If someone garners a lot of 'giving up' reports, audit their account and if they're suiciding a ridiculous amount early in games, give them a warning, and if it continues, a ban.
The issue is that it traps 4 other people in a pointless game where it's harder to earn BP or pip.

I like the idea of having a dedicated report button just for that, but I'm still not sure how effective reporting stuff to the developers actually is in this game. I mean, people report actual hackers and nothing gets done most of the time...

I would love if there was a way for the game to track the "giving up" ratio of a player and maybe just match make them together. I mean, if someone is ruining the experience to everyone else, only fair they play together.

But of course, the match making in DBD is already complex enough to add another layer on top...

@HugTheHag said:
A survivor disconnecting in the first few minutes should end the match the same way killer DCs do.
As for giving up on hook, maybe there shouldn't be skillchecks in struggle phase, at least while this DC/unalive oneself trend is going on. That would make the survivor have to wait for an unhook, the difference with first phase being that they couldn't take a chance to escape.
Of course, they could find other ways to leave the match (stay under hook to be downed again), but at least that would buy time for the team rather than dying in 10 seconds.

I totally agree, on ending the game if anyone DCs early, but I don't think there's anything to be done on people just killing themselves...

I don't even know if there would be anyway to penalize that either... I mean, if people are having a terrible time you can't make them stay in the game. The penalty in the end is just earning less blood points in general, but I don't think people hardly care about that.

in If Any Other Killer Was As Buggy As Wesker Is Right Now They'd Be Kill Switched Comment by FogNoob September 2, 2022

I don't think there's anything new about it.. when I started playing I remember thinking killer was super easy, until I started going against good survivors. I didn't even know 360s were a thing.. I remeber having no idea why I just couldn't hit some people.. lol

And survivor solo queue has always been rough for beginners... you get 4 people that have no idea how to loop or work together and of course you'll get stomped..

What I think changed is solo queue is rough now even for intermediate survivors... I think we need some kind of buff, even if it's just the often suggested "action icons" (not sure what to call them), to show what people are doing.. if they are in chase, going for the save, etc... Even a ping system would be nice.

Other than that not sure what could be done. Ideally improved matchmaking... beginners should never me matched with experienced players..

I agree with this, but you also have to consider the fact that killers such as Plague counter survivor items. It's not just a killer issue.

It still gives you a way to heal, in any case... it just comes with the downside of giving the killer it's power. If you could just use your medkit to get rid of the infection it would be too strong, I think. But I see your point.

The Devs worship the stats and never look at the info behind them. This is nothing new. They don't care about potential, they only care about what their little tiny spreadsheet of kills and escapes tells them. Which even my highschool statistics teacher could tell them is amongst the dumbest things one could ever do.
I generally don't like Dev bashing, it takes a lot of effort and soul to make even a barely functional game, but... That's not something that can be defended.

I completely agree. They seem to make the most stupid changes based on "STATS". Something is being used too much? Let's not look on the reasons why, just nerf it. Something isn't being used that much even though in some situations it can ruin the fun of one of the parts? Leave it in.

But to be fair I think that's the same reason they haven't looked into iridescent head on huntress or some other broken add ons. They are not used all that much for them to waste their precious time balancing it.

So yeah.. let's nerf discordance without thinking about why it's used sooo much and let's leave OoO 4 men SWF going. So damn stupid.

I really don't think it should be nerfed. Just bring detectives hunch or any perk that allows you to find bones.

I mean... you have 4 survivors.. just do the damn bones! I think what hurts the game the most is not just gen speeds but the fact there is no secondary objective. When undying is in the mix you have to take some time to find the totems. Is that such a big problem?

in The stupidest part about ruin/undying/tinkerer Comment by FogNoob October 5, 2020

@Xyvielia said:
It’s also interesting imagining how 4 survivors would team-up simultaneously to surround the killer (could depend on the killer... Doc with his shock, for example would be a challenge, or Oni due to the size, etc.) and knock them down, maybe stuff party starters in their mouth to incapacitate them a bit, set them on fire with all the gas in the generators combined with the torches around the realms, take their weapon and bludgeon them relentlessly into a pile of fleshy pulp... possibly even hook them.
The game stereotypes survivors (in-match) as weak, vulnerable, fearful creatures; some of which go against their personalities provided in the lore.
I could see 4 survivors joining together to physically attempt to stop the threat instead of just running away and throwing pallets.
Must be some unspoken entity rule that they have to appear pathetic and helpless, idk.

If you need an explanation, one could say the entity gives super human abilities (strength, endurance and more) to the killers, so they are not really "human" anymore. I mean, the nurse literally breaks pallets with her mind.

Also, I don't understand this desire some people have that the survivors should fight back... that would change the whole dynamic of the game.

That's actually not a bad idea, although in that case I would increase the extra recovering speed from 50% to 75% or even 100%. Overall, Unbreakable by itself, currently, is not that useful of a perk. Let's be honest here.

Agree. It's a perk that can be completely wasted or just turn a game on it's head completely. I admit it's situational but I still think it's really strong.

Edit: I can't see how you could rework Unbreakable, though.

hahaha see... people like us are out there, afraid to speak our minds!

But really, any activation condition would be better than none, in my opinion. As @Leachy_Jr suggested here, it could be picking somebody up from the ground, It could be getting downed in a protection hit, it could be unhooking 2 people in a match. I think just for keeping consistent with the rest of Bill's perks it should be something altruistic.

Having the same issue here.. me and a friend. Weirdly was playing just fine a few hours ago.. was something done on the background? This doesn't look like a server issue, since the game is outright crashing.

Im also being stuck on the survivor selection screen after each game.

Now can't even create a party in game.

in Game broken on ps4 Comment by FogNoob August 4, 2020

That should NEVER happen.

This is the easiest way to make people quit the game before even getting familiar with it. I was watching a streamer the other day trying the game for the first time and something similar happened. He didn't understand how the perks worked, he was shocked when he was hit by decisive strike and was furious when BT activated when he hit another survivor. It was pretty entertaining, to be honest but I can see how it could put off a new player from ever learning how to play the game.

Just to be clear, I don't think it's on the devs to teach new players every single mechanic on the game, perks and all, this comes with time and experience. But I do think new players should ONLY go against other new players, or players with lower skills, just so people have a chance to actually learn how to play. Maybe it's not possible to do it.. but matches like the one OP mentioned should not happen imo.

in Hardest achievement? Comment by FogNoob July 20, 2020

I dont understand this "dont punish the killer" argument. I mean.. you have to punish whoever is being unfair.. it's the same thing with survivors running infinites... they just removed the loops and "punished" survivors. FAIR ENOUGH I'd say! You might as well just give up whenever someone started running around that god damned slaughterhouse in the farm map. Also, survivors can't vault a window forever... which again, fair enough.

Now, somebody says: "hey.. you know... maybe we should look into a way to avoid face camping..." and my god, people lose their #########. If this is being posted so much in the forum it is because it's something that's worth looking into and not just to be pushed aside. Also.. not everybody reads the forums everyday... if you have 3,000 posts in here and is sick of reading about it too bad for you... but as long as the issue is there people are gonna keep posting about it.. it's simple like that.

Do you not see the flaw in your argument? What if the survivor is equally as good a player?

But the whole game have situations like that.. I think if two equally good players are going against each other, one of them is gonna have an advantage depending which killer or which perks the survivor is using. What I mean is a good Nurse, Billy, Oni, PH or Huntress will most of the time have an advantage on equally good survivors and even with these killers there might be a level of "guessing" or "predicting" what the other side is gonna do.

Said that I do understand why some people feel there's not enough information to counter the quick shots.. but then what could be done?

Should Deathslinger have a "laser sight" that shows the survivor that he's taking aim? Kind of like the red trail PH makes before taking his shot? I mean, it could be considered as mush as a nerf (because the survivors would have more information) as well as a buff (because now the killer has a way to know when the survivors are on the crosshairs).

Anyway, thanks for the reply. I always like your content and love to have this kind of conversations.

in Deathslinger's counterplay balance discussion - what changes would you make ? Comment by FogNoob July 17, 2020

I agree with you to a point. I've been playing survivor 90% of the time lately just because I feel it's a lot more relaxed than playing killer. There's a lot of micro managing you have to do as killer.. keep an eye on the gens, hooks, who you hooked, who you didn't, what chases to commit, etc.

But it all depends who you're playing against. I feel SWF still have a big advantage just for being able to communicate. But if it's 4 solo survivors it's much easier. Don't know how they could balance the game around it, though.

As for survivors, they still have to deal with moris, iridescent heads, camping, etc...

But yeah.. I stopped playing killer for months just because it was getting too stressful, so I do think you have a point. But at the same time what can be done? Increase the time gens take to be done and make the game super boring for survivors? It's a tough one.

Maybe a system where gens take longer to do in the beginning of the match and less time at the end of the match depending on how many survivors are still in the game?

in Multiple threads of "killers meltdown". Are the devs proud? Comment by FogNoob June 25, 2020

Just like how you have a choice to move on to the next match. And nice try w those changes you listed, because they were nerfs to killer and buffs to survivor, but that's how the game goes, right? Camping IS a strategy whether you like it or not, and it's not going away. Quit getting caught so easily, and you won't be camped by noobs or mashed potatoes, because that's the only people that really do it. Any killer that's ACTUALLY GOOD and has SKILL isn't gonna waste there time camping, because your not gonna pip, your not getting ######### for bp's, and only get 1k unless the team is a bunch of morons and keeps feeding the killer instead of knocking out the gens. GET BETTER! Someone draw this guy a picture or something man. I'm done with this dude. ✌

I'm not getting caught easily, actually the longer it takes for you to be caught, the more likely to be camped you are. Some killers just get extremely salty just because you are running away and looping. TOXIC SURVIVORS doing exactly what they are supposed to do. And yeah, I get "CaMpInG iS A StraTegY GET BETTER!!111", just dont know why you get so salty just talking about it.

And you gonna tell me the DS change and the BT change were buffs to survivors? Are you crazy? The same with the Mettle of man nerf. They were necessary changes, I totally agree, but I think it's totally bull** saying "that's how the game goes"... hahaha Yeah man, just move on.

Hard to ignore when there's 15+ a day. I just finally decided to reply to one. People need to quit crying over spilled milk. I hate swf's and think it's the most unfair, unbalanced thing in the game, but it's never gonna change, so why complain about it? It's already a thing, and isn't gonna change. Just like camping, tunneling, flash light spams, butt dancing, etc.

If there's so may posts I guess maybe it's an actual issue? Maybe worth discussing and looking at? I mean, as far as I can tell that's the point of this forum, right? Also, things do change in this game all the time. DS was changed, Borrowed time was changed, Ruin was changed... the game evolved a lot because of feedback.

Also... c'mon dude.. flashlight spamming and "butt dancing" don't really keep the killer from doing anything, does it? You're gonna tell me that a guy clicking a flashlight is as bad as camping when it has literally zero effect on the actual game? It's annoying as hell, I know, but maybe just ignore him or chase him? You do have an actual choice.

I feel for you. Your idea is actually not that bad, but you are always going to have these players who say stuff like "Don't get caught", but the minute anyone mentions DS "Oh no that's abuseable". Like what? 🤣
My advice? Ignore those posts and respond to the people who actually add to the conversation. That's what I do anymore when I post on these forums.
As for your idea. I think it's good the only thing I would add is that no other survivor is near, it should proc if the killer has been stationary for x amount of seconds. I would also say that they should make it built-in like other mechanics exist to stop abusable tactics like window blockers, bloodlust etc.

I like your idea, I just disagree with the stationary part. I mean... the killer could just camp moving around, back and forth, whatever... would be too easy to play around it. But I would love if it was a built in mechanic like bloodlust, but I guess killers would lose their ######### if that happened, that's why I suggested a perk, somethink you could use but would have to spend a perk slot to.

Sure. I hope you don't mind me replying in English. I'm feeling a bit lazy and don't want to write in Spanish.
When that mechanic was tested in the first PTB, it was discovered that two survivors could force the killer to stay near the hook. The killer was then forced to make a choice: chase one survivor away while the other one unhooked, or stay near the hook and the fourth survivor would have more than enough time to work on generators and then come in for a rescue anyway. Since this gave all the power to survivors, even though the killer was the one who did all the work, the idea was immediately disregarded.
The devs also tried having the first hook stage last forever (unless the survivors attempted to unhook themselves), but a similar issue arose: without any pressure to unhook, the survivors could finish repairing all the generators and unhook at their leisure. The killer was forced to allow survivors to unhook, or he would receive almost no benefit for his work. Again, this idea was thrown away.

That's interesting, I didn't know that was tested. I still think something could(and should) be done, but I guess for now we'll just have to do gens and that's it. Thanks for your reply.

So if i hook someone and see scratch marks near by..... I'm supposed to get to the other side of the map knowing there was someone there ready to unhook and heal?
I know what you mean, but it's very abuseable, AND terms like camping and tunneling are used so loosely by survivors it's actually hard to take them seriously. I mean the other day à friend was calling the killer à camper but refused to see my other friend chose to loop the killer in the killer shack where the basement was.... Só you know.... Bullshit.

No, if you see scratch marks and start a chase the hook progression would continue normally. And I totally agree with you! the terms are used very loosely. I guess we would have to first define what "camping" actually is. I take kindred range as a good measure, but I understand some people would think that's too much.
