My judgement of the archives/rift isn't based on difficulty or amount of time played.
For literally years we've been begging for more challenges and things (and some people wanted lore) and we got nothing until they found a way to strap it to a typically predatory monetization practice.
That alone is pretty scummy, the outright lies about the difficulty and the absurdity of the grind/challenges as well as the time gated nature is just a cherry on top.
Idgaf about the rift, I'd just like a decent set of challenges and goals for the game. Not a new lackluster time gated grind.

I honestly dont get what you're trying to proof. In a chase you blink at the survivor, fulldistance or not. Its simple. And then you're always in range for the next one, unless you blinked in the opposite direction. What are you trying to say?
true proved that if you miss your blink attack a survivor can run in a straight line and you CANNOT catch up in 2 blinks because of the cooldown.
It sounds like you're relying on napkin math too heavily.

What event?

Xbox US Utah
Killer 5-10 minutes in the evenings
Rank 8 ish right now

"Judging before knowing" is a problem in our society in general.
This """"""logic""""""" Is one of the main reasons why stupid things like homophobia,racism,sexism,... still exist.

Ah, I think I've worked out the survivor skills and killer skills based on this comment, 20-17 new players (both) leave em be, or give advice if you ever somehow meet one, 16-14 an actual game for those still learning but not abusive as such (both) this can be fun to try new builds as an experienced player, 13-10 ######### (survivors) 13-9 ######### (killers) rank 9-5 R.I.P killers rank 4-2 R.I.P survivors rank 1 R.I.P killers
This is pretty dead on accurate. I have to go out of my way to drag games on until I hit green ranks again and then it becomes a coin flip if it'll be a smash or a rout.
Then once you start hitting purple it gets real sweaty. I've never been below 8 as survivor but i haven't been super impressed with many killers I've faced.
-
Well they said summer 2019, and then they said fall 2019.
I'm thinking probably summer 2020 minimum. And only after they bump a few more events to work on them.

You'll get a lot more as the next levels of the Tome unlock and you get new challenges to complete. The Serum stays in the Rift after the event ends, you don't need to rush.
The math doesn't really agree with you unless you are planning to dramatically increase the rewards of challenges.

Well I play xbox only.
And i also play casual for survivor and killer. And usual the killer matches aren't that bad with a few here and there with toxic survivors.
Yeah the lighter color your ranks are the crappier the survivors. My buddy sucks ass but he's still purple ranks lol
-
Meaning xbox has a built in culture of partying up. Groups of people move from game to game, and there's a built in party system. I regularly get party invites when i queue solo.
If you get the casual group you'll stomp their heads, but the closer you get to red the more often you're facing non casuals who've been coordinating together across n+1 different games.
My clan from destiny plays with me and though they suck at dbd the level of coordination we're capable of is disgusting.
Your unicorn is much more ubiquitous on xbox.
-
Play on xbox for a while. The survivors are different.
-
Thanks for telling me how people play. Your anecdotal evidence trumps all of mine for sure.
-
Just like the archives they'll add it when they find a way to monetize it

@Peanits said:
He was always intended to lose bloodlust when placing snares, like all other killer powers. Accumulating bloodlust on top of slowing the survivors is excessive and doesn't require any skill.
Funny we never heard anything about this.
Is this another nurses calling doctor scenario?

I play xbox and it's been happening alot to me recently, against teams that all have 3 times my time a piece, they have someone get off gens to preserve pallets and will block doorways to force me to hit them
Xbox/ps4 players are different than pc. Because of how easy partying up is and how encouraged it is most of the time groups of people move from game to game. Buddies who've been playing together forever will naturally coordinate better, even if they're new to dbd specifically.

In all my three years of playing the game, I have yet to encounter this human pallet playstyle. Usually taking a hit to prevent the killer from hitting someone is counterproductive, unless the gates are open and you're helping them escape.
Ah well if you've never seen it...
Everyone needs to play the consoles for a while. The survivors are very different.

If you truly had no basic attack cooldown, you'd be able to swing as fast as you can click. If you click fast enough, you'd be able to hit them twice before they can move out of your range.
Meanwhile if you can't attack fast enough to down someone before they can leave, they can always get hit and use that speed burst to run out anyway. Not to mention that they would still be able to sit right at the edge of the escape zone and fall out of the map when they go down.
In any case, it wouldn't prevent someone from sitting in the gate and teabagging, but it would have unintended side effects.
If this were true borrowed time wouldn't work on leatherfaces chainsaw but it does, so....

You're forced to play survivor so you understand their problems, just like killer problems.
Surely you don't mean this was the intent of the devs?

Oh believe me I have. It's ######### fantastic. I can play to earn actual rewards and playing the correct way. Not some ######### mundane way to get some crap "rewards". Apex is...well...the apex of halloween events right now.

Yes.
So is michael's new clothes
Yup aside from the mask in gown which is minor. Though the comparison isn't fair, as the gown was 2-3 frames and ashy slashy was a full episode or two.
I wish they'd done the sheet ghost from 1

@Alice_pbg said:
You guys seriously need to chill out.
It's just a cosmetic.
Behaviour has been making these types of skins for a while now.
What do you think ashy slashy is?
Circus strongman trapper?
Phantom of the opera wraith?
Beachboy billy?
Cabbage hag?
Santa clause clown?
Schoolgirl spirit?
How many jobs does dwight even have by now?
Hell... david has a shirtless cosmetic.
It just happen to go for a character you like this time and that makes you angry. Chill out a bit. Have fun :)
You know ashy slashy was from the show right?

Good survivors don't use the perks that "nerf" him anyways?
EW1 takes seconds of stalk to get out of, less with add-ons, and if you can't achieve that vs. purple or green rank survivors you are bad and really should not have much of a say on game balance anyways.
Oh look another git gud person who isn't interested in discussion. Aren't you precious.

I haven't played either of those games but I seem to remember hitman going SUPER SUPER hard on the DLC recently? I think the last one I looked at was "free to play" with literally every mission being paid DLC or some non-sense.
Destiny 2 I have only heard bad things about and Destiny 1 was not balanced at all for PvP (in my opinion) so I never got into it. Shoutout to the Destiny 1 days of having an unlimited ammo auto-shotgun and invisibility+radar immunity for stupidly easily PvP kills though.
The other games you mentioned are AAA titles who can afford to lose money, DBD probably not? Pretty sure games like Apex have millions of players where-as DBD scrapes by on 40k players on steamcharts at its peak.
It's really disgusting if you are saying something like Apex has a better progession model than DBD. They are now both paywall, but at the same time, it's mainly for cosmetics, so who cares?
Your mischaracterizations of hitman 2 and destiny aside, you know bhvr is the biggest indie dev in canada, right? You know that ioi and bungie are both self owned and produced right? Its actually a very apt comparison, but you don't actually seem interested in listening to anyone else so I'm just gonna leave you to it. Enjoy your weekend friend.

It's clear anything I say will be wrong anyway. I'm good at Legion so clearly my opinions are completely worthless. You're so cool why wouldn't I want to debate you? Bye Felicia.
That you are trying to make this a debate is a pretty good example of you not engaging in this discussion in good faith. Can you even explain to me my objections to this nerf?
The legion crack at the end is priceless btw
-
Myers for sure needed more counter play right?
Imagine complaining about ds still while scolding people upset that the devs nerfed arguably the most balanced killer however slightly.
-
@MegMain98 said:
https://forum.deadbydaylight.com/en/discussion/comment/801552#Comment_801552
Myers was always a mid-tier killer.
Yup. Didn't need more counterplay lol
-
If the survivors just run away when they see it pop up they've made ground on ew1 myers you might not make back up.
Stop downplaying how critical it is to get out of ew1 asap, and how difficult these perks can make it.
He's no legion but he didn't need this nerf.

Why do you think you are entitled to any event at all? Did you pay for the event to happen?
What other game do you know that is actually doing a Halloween event? I can only name 1 off the top of my head. Any "event" is a bonus given to you by the company, you already got the game you paid for, running perfectly fine.
If you want more content, you have to pay for it, because the company paid to have it developed. Really simple.
Uh, hitman 2 and destiny 2 both have pretty good halloween events right now with things that are awesome that you unlock for participating in the event.
The blight cosmetics aren't event cosmetics they're rift cosmetics.

I'm pretty sure I understand capitalism. Us "morons" who bought the battle pass generate capital for BHVR. If it generates enough revenue they will continue to offer a premium option. If people don't support it and revenue is not generated they prob won't offer them. Capitalism! ;)
/facepalm ok buddy lol

You get that that would be a nerf, right?

It's not that I'm not empathetic. I think it's all relative to be honest. I've still been doing fine with Myers. Also, I am more successful with Legion than most killers.
I also don't think Spine Chill is going to become meta. I think it's a perk that some people love and swear by but it's one of the harder ones to get used to using effectively in my experience. I honestly think most people would rather use the perk slot for something else.
Why are you still quibbling over the degree to which the nerf hurts him?
THAT ISN'T THE POINT. Its beyond insane that people are still saying git gud to this. This is the empathy disconnect. You bringing up legion really confirms it lol
Try actually understanding what I'm saying and where I'm coming from before you try and rebut it.

EXACTLY!
Don't hate the player (BHVR) hate the game (capitalism).
... dude what? Its for sure bhvrs fault lol nobody is making them fund deathgarden with dbd money. You have a very warped understanding of capitalism.
Blame the morons who support this battlepass, not capitalism.

@Lost_in_the_Fog said:
https://forum.deadbydaylight.com/en/discussion/comment/802785#Comment_802785
So if Adrenaline, DS, BT, and Dead Hard are the survivor meta perks then why is everyone freaking out over Spine Chill? I still, for the life of me cannot figure this out.
Try empathizing a little. A beloved mid tier killer is nerfed (however slightly in your mind) to maintain consistency with his replacement. Now he has all of the weaknesses of the other stealth killers ON TOP OF HIS OWN BUILT IN LIMITATIONS.
Currently gf is basically a strictly better myers. Slightly less snowball, none of the downsides.
Yes some people are overreacting but this is an unnecessary change that makes a weak killer weaker. he's no legion but he's on his way to being a shittier pig.

@Skemooo said:
i liked all the blighted skins though.. well last time everyon trying to get to flowers instead of doing gens.. i think this is much better atleast i get to play normal game. mostly. i think since this also updated engine and they put archives in.. would have been too many things if they did a seperate event for this..
Yeah their art team is great when they charge money. Gotta support deathgarden somehow.

What a massive exaggeration. At worst 1-2 people might know you're coming in tier 1.
If those two people prevent you from getting into t2 until 2 gens pop that's no joke.
Mike is already massively disadvantaged in ew1. This just adds more ways to bully the ######### out of him.

@SpaceCoconut You mentioned the Battlepass again. Interesting thought about that. At the Steam forums and Reddit for Deathgarden, when folks talk about the game needing to go F2P to get players into it since they're averaging 50 or so peak a day, I see people replying with how the Deathgarden Devs have come out and stated that F2P and a cash shop are not necessary, because profits from Dead by Daylight are funding Deathgarden and keeping it afloat right now.
So, we have all the issues here, and now a new form of monetization, and the Deathgarden Devs come out and openly state that DbD is funding their development?
I don't follow Deathgarden enough to have seen such a Dev claim with my own eyes, but it might be worth you researching for a video.
Yes, companies the size of BHVR (and bigger) do such a thing all the time. But given all the lingering and new issues in DbD, and the questionable move to put a Battlepass into it to monetize it further, it does paint this whole thing in a bad light to me when the Deathgarden Devs allegedly come out and claim that a game with a 50 peak player daily base is being funded with profits from this game, in the condition this game is in.
Uh this is a big deal, and really ######### upsetting

@S_Panda said:
"T2 is like a trapless trapper" is quite a funny comment - this situation can be created by a team of immersed saboteurs but michael has a faster vault in T2 over trapper so even in T2 he's a better than a trapless trapper
No he doesn't dude
Why do people keep lying about mikey boi lol

@Nikkiwhat said:
It's hilarious imo xD Like Pig's weapons got new sound & visual effects (Drill Bit keeps spinning, Saw Blade vibrates etc) but Michael jus stabs people with his pipe xD esp hilarious with his Mori....in a weird way.....kinda on brand for how ridiculous Killers can be from Horror movies
Skewering someone with a pipe is a pretty mike move. He pinned a cop to a wall with a shotgun in 4 lol

I've seen it on at least 2 people in half the games I've played today. And i was checking.
Not ruining the character, just a senseless nerf and a huge gut kick.
