My game has been acting very weird since the update too. I've been getting these stutters along with a weird bug where at least one person in the match just bugs out and it makes me wait about three seconds to put them on the hook. I played five killer matches earlier and had both issues every match so it seems very consistent.
-
I did for about a full two months until recently, the right click on my mouse didn't work about 20% of the time. Looking back I should have just used a different keybind. It was really bad on killer and I just ended up not playing killer for a full month.
-
In short its to give the killer points, if I think the killer had a rough game I'll give them 2 hits (300 points per hit) at the exit gates.
-
From my killer experiences (rank 1 every season) its a lose-lose situation. Play "nice" and you will get stomped unless you're playing a killer who can afford to play "nice" (spirit, a good nurse and a side note even if you play nice with these killers you still get called a scumbag) and then get called bad in the postgame chat. Play "scummy" and get a ton of pressure, force survivors into bad situations and most likely win, and then get called a piece of crap, tunneler, camper, etc.
-
Yeah my issue with the skin is that he still uses a kanabo. It just seems like a missed opportunity. He could have a huge battle axe, a massive club, maybe even get creative and give him like a tree log but instead its just the same old. Still a good skin but it could have been a great skin.
-
I was actually just wondering about this earlier, I figure its most likely so they can use them in later rifts. Sucks though because it will probably be at least another few rifts till they start going through the survivors who were already on rifts but didn't get a charm.
-
Yeah I'm no fashion expert or anything close but that new Yui outfit doesn't look right. I mean shes wearing tennis shoes with the whole "Greek Goddess" thing. It actually looks so bad and kills the entire outfit for me, which is funny because I usually don't care about these things.
-
I feel that the only way to nerf SWF without killing the game would be to buff solos and then buff killers to compensate. I think most people would agree that taking away perks is a very boring mechanic, which is bad for the game no matter what side you play more.
-
Yeah I feel that the game gets worse every DLC. Wish they would just put one off and mass rework perks, low-tier killers, and fix bugs.
-
Oh wow I didn't even notice it said Open Handed, I just assumed it was Ace in the Hole because of the actual challenge. Now I'm just confused.
-
I've noticed this too, I play on 2560x1440 and now my UI is way too small. I remember a patch or two ago it was too big and then it got fixed so I'm sure they'll fix it soon.
-
Yeah for the past 2 - 3 weeks my red rank survivor queues have all been under 2 minutes but I've noticed since yesterday they've gone up to 5 minutes sometimes higher which is weird. I thought more players = faster queues but who knows.
-
I always have music playing when I'm playing DBD. I also always have music playing when I play any other game too. Just kinda always been my thing. Its so normal to me now that I feel off when I don't have music on while gaming.
-
Would be nice if the crown was a new slot that could be used with other heads. I want to use it with my bunny Feng hood.
-
Personally I feel the event is fine. Biggest complaint is the cakes being broken. All I wanted out of the event was more bloodpoints and the cakes being broken is a very big let down. I'm sure it will be fixed sometime tomorrow though.
-
I've been playing quite a bit today and I noticed this early on. Thought I was going crazy or something, sucks because I've seen so many cakes today.
-
I've had a mix of some killers letting people farm and then a few insidious bubbas / iri head huntresses. Its been going well for me but I should mention that when I get a killer that gives a super try-hard toxic vibe I just suicide on hook and next game it.
-
Spirit. No looping just mind games that I control, also i can just speed across the map to pressure gens if i need to. Definitely one of the most fun killers to play IMO.

Definitely not a good idea. The best idea would be to implement voice chat for all, then buff the living crap out of killers to compensate.
Oh god, i feel like I already lose a ton of brain cells reading post game chat. Having to hear some of these people on voice would be ugh, I don't even want to think about it.

You basically make an explosion at a generator to lure the killer to it. It's a distraction, like Diversion.
Can't you just fail a skill check and save a perk slot to do the same thing? My first thoughts on the perk anyways.

Look at Twitch as an example. Killer mains on twitch, the greater majority of them, go out of their way not to tunnel, camp, run noed, or any other tactic survivors deem "unfair". I'm talking Tru3, Otz, Edgar, Umbra (to an extent, she has a habit of going right back to the hook sometimes), DeviB, OhTofu, Polysypher, etc. They all mostly go out of their way to play by the survivor rulebook. They often play survivor the same way, and tend not to abuse overpowered things, and go out of their way to be fair.
Then you have the survivor main streamers. ANGRYPUG, kittychipz, geistra, Ayrun (who I actually think cheats with a much larger red stain on killers via config files) etc. They all play survivor without caring about killer fun. They teabag, abuse the same god windows, and generally just bully killers, and then they usually get pretty salty and defensive if they get outplayed. HOWEVER, this isn't to bash them, because to their credit, they play killer the same way. When they play killer, they don't give a #########, and do what it takes to win. Also - for anyone who wants to mention JenDenise - she actually goes out of her way not to abuse god loops etc. She'll even refuse to drop shack pallet.
What I'm saying is, killers are worried about playing fair, when a majority of the time, survivors are not; and there is nothing wrong with that. So stop worrying about what the other side thinks. If you want to win, play to win.
Yeah I kinda laugh when I get called out for playing Spirit by a guy who's running Dead Hard, Unbreakable, Borrowed Time, and Decisive Strike. It happens way too much.
-
I think personally a big problem with the toxicity is the post game screen where you get entity displeased/brutal killer etc etc. I have had games where I'm like wow that was genuinely fun, I had a blast and so did the survivors, oh whats this? ENTITY DISPLEASED. Oh okay guess the game disagrees with me having a fun and enjoyable time and making a fun match for the survivors too. Now this is my personal take but I'm guessing a lot of killers feel the same. No one likes seeing entity displeased after a hard fought game.
-
I agree. Her traps already have multiple counters. You can crouch through them, you can wait till you know shes out of range or its a very inconvenient time for her ( mid chase or hooking someone ) or you can straight up avoid them. On a similar note, why does the Wraith flashlight stun even exist? Hes one of the weaker killers and while I think its cool from a lore point of view, it makes zero sense game play wise.
-
I hope they change Grim Pantry. The map has like five pallets outside of the ridiculously strong building that could also be considered a straight up maze. I hate this map as killer and I hate it as survivor. I don't even want to imagine what the map will be like when you can break the walls on the main building.

Heres a Myers using Billy's chainsaw
Thats actually hilarious, thanks for sharing.
-
45 Been playing quite a bit of DBD recently after getting burned out from WoW. New killer hype is another big reason I'm playing more too.
-
Yeah I can't wait to see this new mechanic in action. Really hope it changes the meta. Also I'm really glad Plague is getting some attention, didn't see this coming but she definitely needed it.
-
I like the idea of this. It seems like it would encourage different builds which is good because the meta right now is boring to play and boring to play against IMO. i also wish they would just change the bloodweb to be less tedious. There is nothing exciting about unlocking the same set of perks for the 20th time just on a different killer / survivor.
-
I got this the other night. I used the iridescent lean addon with a W key build ( Spirit Fury, Enduring, Bamboozle, and Brutal Strength ). This challenge definitely sucks and Its very ridiculous compared to lets say "play oni and hit people with demon strike".
-
I've been thinking its possible that the chains have nothing to do with the killer and its just part of the cinematic to cause confusion, but if it was this guy I'd be pretty happy.
-
New survivor perk ; Stand. Every survivor gets their own unique stand. David getting Star Platinum. You thought killers got bullied before? Hah, just wait till you get frozen in time while gens are being repaired.
-
Yeah it seems like its off and on. I run iron will 90% of the time and I can always hear my own injured sounds when the killer runs stridor but I usually talk with the killer and they tell me they couldn't hear me quite often. I also run this perk on my spirit and I run into the same thing, sometimes I hear people and sometimes they make zero noise. Sometimes they make zero noise even without iron will. Hope they fix this soon because its game breaking.
-
A casual mode would be great. Currently if I want to play with my friends I have to go on an alt account which has none of my cosmetics and none of my perks. Its kind of amazing that there isn't an unranked mode yet. My friends don't want to play against rank 1 killers when they're brand new to the game, it just isn't fun for either side in my opinion.

Start the match and lunge immediately..
Yes but why should you have to do this? You shouldn't, the devs should be fixing this along with the sound issues but it just seems to go unanswered every patch
-
Hexy :)
-
Not for me, playing toxic just stresses me out more. When the game really starts to upset me I walk away. Sometimes I want to keep playing because I think to myself "next game things will go better" but I've learned through experience its always best to just walk away. I go by the saying "don't hate the player, hate the game". I don't blame the players anymore than I blame the game for the frustrations I encounter. At the end of the day all of the bugs, exploits, bad maps, and balancing issues are 100% on the developers.
-
I don't think this is necessary as the current ranks are totally useless. The ranks themselves are already meaningless and then the matchmaking doesn't work on top of that. Maybe once matchmaking and the ranking system are fixed this could be an okay idea to discourage DCs.
-
In my experience its usually Steve who is the most "toxic". Every time I see that sailor outfit I know I'm in for a clown show.
-
I go for 4 stacks of BBQ when playing killer now and after that I just go for fancy plays and memes. As survivor its always been about the memes personally, holding m1 on gens is pretty boring.

What issue are you having? I'm a Myers main, and I haven't noticed any real issues.
You stalk someone for 40% of Tier 3 they turn a corner and it takes away 20% of that stalk as an example. This is pretty common for me when playing Myers and Ghostface.

It’s sooo absurd how this is his best addon and it’s not even close. The only other I can think of that it’s this far above the others is Iri hatchet but that’s an ultra rare
I love that his pink addons suck and his other addons are all solid, it makes him really cheap to play with good addons. Well I wish his pink addons didn't suck but its nice that I can play him with his best addons for about 9k BPs
-
Topknots for Oni.
-
I can relate, personally I like "fun" builds because it puts me in a fun mindset. When I run a sweaty build I feel like I need to win and it just adds stress.
-
60/40 Killer / Survivor here. Killer feels more rewarding but survivor is way less intense and way less stressful for me. Before the ruin change is was about the same but killer was more forgiving and chill.

Sounds to me like you would benefit from blood warden good sire
An endgame build for killer could be fun, but I'm doing quite well with my current builds. I've been playing a lot of Ghostface with Sloppy and Nurses, and the rare amount people who don't heal versus Ghostface have an insane amount of courage and I actually respect them. Other than that I play Oni with ruin and if they don't heal I have my power up so often that I'm basically a race car for the full match.

Here we go again. BT and DS killer karens that think those 2 perks are the sole reason they lose.
I'm not complaining about the meta or the perks themselves, just stating how strong they are in the EGC hence the current meta of rushing to the EGC.
-
Personally the majority of my games are like that. Its just the current meta of do gens don't heal make it to EGC and you get a pretty damn near free escape with BT, DS.

I guess with the state of killer right now maybe they wanted to feel more in control (which the killer should feel in this game). It just sucks to be on the receiving end of it.
Yeah I agree it sucks but there are some things you can do to make it suck less. I tab out and just watch twitch or youtube, this really makes it funny because while the person is wasting 2 minutes baby sitting me I'm just chilling.
-
I just feel bad for people who do this as they must be in a pretty poor mindset to do these things. I usually try to be really kind to them at the end of the game and wish them luck. I'd like to think it makes them reflect on what they did and they change for the better.
-
I'm a fan of the idea of generators taking longer to repair in the beginning and gradually becoming faster to repair as the match goes on. I feel like on the dc situation it should be a timer to make it to where no one depips, maybe if someone dc's 3 minutes into the match no one loses rank so it can't be abused too hard. And those coldwind farm maps, they're the real killer when it comes to DBD. Every time I load into cowshed I start getting flash backs, between the insane amount of pallets and the corn.
