I play both sides and the amount of times I/my teammates get camped in the basement (rare) isn't often enough to warrant such a change. Sometimes basement camping happens and we all hate basement camp Bubba but it's just not encountered enough to punish all the killers. When I began playing killer, I found basement really useful because I knew people weren't going to run around sabo-ing hooks down there at least. DBD is supposed to be a scary game and I like that there's one place you definitely need to avoid as survivor or go in there knowing the risks.
Just came into the basement chat to say - wouldn't it be awesome if killer got to decorate the basement as part of their cosmetics? Like idk, put christmas lights down there on the holidays or have creepy TV sets watching you Ringu-style or like for the Artist maybe have it look like a crow's nest or something? I think that would be so neat!

It's not a matter of getting used to, the loud sounds can literally hurt you physically.
Agreed - I do remember when it was scary when first time encountering him as survivor and neat when playing him as killer for the first time. I think it's a well designed sound (i really do like the sound, it has depth and also part of it sounds like a hurt human-ish sound)... But now that I've been playing him let's say every other day for some months it is approaching painful with my headphones at max volume - my typical setting for killer matches (just to be able to better locate survivors cos I still suck at that!).
I mean could there be an option for toning it down after you've played a certain amount of times? The jump scare aspect of it would still be there for new players but it won't lead to permanent hearing loss for long time players.
Then again really the easiest option would be to be able to lightly decreased the volume of one's own sounds as killer. As it is now I'll just invest in some quieter killers so that DBD doesn't make me deaf. Would love to hear from sound designers and other people on the team who need to use headphones all day about their thoughts on this... I am sure people would see the health benefit.
RE: SuzuKR - I can see that but I would much prefer a way to tone down Demo's scream and, if necessary, ALL game sounds during that moment, rather than have to hear it so loud every time.
Also most other killer's hit sounds aren't quite so intense as that whereas the attack itself isn't so different from, say, Pig ambush or Pyramid's attack which both seem to me to be much less loud.

Man that sucks. I can take the breaking sounds, explosion sounds and even the survivor screaming in my face after hooking them (now with added fireworks... yay?) but just demogorgon's massive scream makes me feel like I am burning out my ears so badly... Plus if you main him then you are going to hear it many many times a match. I can only imagine chainsaw folks feel the same way.
It would be nice for transparency to have some kind of warning or graphs which show how loud killer sounds are in a match at least. Then I can see how much I am damaging my ears or limit myself in some way to protect them. I do play both sides about evenly but I would love to play more demo if I didn't think he'd be the death of my hearing. Maybe I should switch to a nice quiet stealth killer...

Really?? That's annoying. I just thought it would be a nice way to thank friends for good games (and tangentially a good way for bvr to make more money from us lol)
