Really feels like it. It almost feels like it's completely global and based on all players, and not based on your individual queue times. Cause I've had 25% survivor bonus with 10 second killer queues and several minute survivor queues. Really hope it gets fixed next update.
Exact same experience here. It says 25 on Survivor yet you can't find a Survivor match but you can find a Killer one in seconds.

These are totally bugged. No doubt about it.

There's been literally zero confirmation that it's asymmetrical. This is pure speculation.

This has been happening for a while now. It has to be a bug.

Freddy is uh… complicated.
I think his original power made you feel like Freddy Krueger, especially if you are thinking about the remake movie, but his current one just doesn't.
Are you a remake fan, my friend? Do you like the original Robert films?

I had a Felix once whose ping skyrocketed to 10 thousand once.
Somehow, defying all understanding, he actually did not dc, and played out the match. Of course, he didn't last long, but somewhere I have to respect the hustle.
Was he able to hit any Skill Checks without blowing up the generators?

Some things about the Plague:
- Your vomit infects things. Once infected, objects will stay infected for 40 seconds (affected by add-ons). You can infect totems, pallets, window vaults, lockers, generators, exit gates, dropped items, chests, and the hatch (yes really, the hatch).
- If a survivor is hit with your green puke or interacts with an infected object, their infection timer starts. This is indicated by a green splotch on their profile. While their timer is started, it will tick up while they run or interact with objects, and tick up faster if they are interacting with something infected. Once full, the splotch becomes red, and the survivor is injured and broken. This also means that survivor will infect anything that they touch, survivor or object.
- Sometimes you will puke on a survivor and hear them react, but the HUD won't show them infected. This is a desync issue and annoying bug, but just try again. Can happen when you barely miss the puke or barely land it.
- Survivors can cleanse at a clean pool of devotion to remove the sickness and restore 1 health state. If the pool water is clear, it is clean. Once they cleanse, the water turns red, and you can get your red puke from it. If survivors cleanse at all of the pools, then after a few seconds, all pools become clean again and you automatically get your power without having to go grab it.
- Vomiting on a survivor who is hooked or downed will allow you to start their infection if they haven't had their timer started yet, so it can be useful. But you can't make it go higher than 1% while they are downed/hooked, so any more than that isn't useful.
- The add-on that decreases the available pools is useful if you want to gain your power passively as survivors continue to cleanse, if you prefer having lots of instances of your power to grab don't run it.
- The "prayer tablet fragment" add-on is actually decent for a meme add-on, as you cannot directly puke on survivors but objects stay infected for twice as long, making it really good for spitting on all the generators.
- Plague is one of the worse killers for deviousness points, you will get most of it from damaging survivors who are fully infected and hitting them with your red vomit. You can also get a good chunk for killing everyone, but don't expect to max out deviousness as Plague in most of your games.
- As someone else has commented, running Corrupt Intervention and infecting unblocked generators forces survivors to either infect themselves or play very slow in the early game.
- As someone else has also mentioned, once you start a survivor's infection timer with just a bit of vomit, you don't have to commit to them, they will eventually become broken or cleanse and activate a fountain for you.
- Some smart survivors will walk in chase to avoid becoming fully infected before being M1'd - if you see this, you can vomit on them at close distance to raise the infection meter and force them to find a window or pallet.
- If a survivor is running around a tall loop with a window/pallet and you can't get line of sight to vomit on them, infecting the window/pallet and chasing until they interact with it can be faster than waiting to catch up and vomit on them directly.
- The red vomit does not infect things but is very lethal. One of many things it does is pass through survivors, so you can't bodyblock it, and it goes through hooked people, so you can damage people unhooking who try to use the guy on hook as a shield.
Mostly advice/tips based on what questions you have asked in this thread. There are a bunch of plague mains you can find on youtube and such, and I know Otzdarva played a lot of plague for a while, so you could probably find plague tips and gameplay on his youtube channel too.
Thank you so very much for taking the time to type all this. It is incredibly helpful.
Thank you 🙏

it’s either I get tunneled and never have the opportunity to get a smoke bomb or the kill never chases me sigh
For the escape a chance after dropping a smoke bomb, I would suggest running Distortion, Bond and Open-Handed. (Distortion so that you don't get found first)
When you see a teammate about to go down, get near by. Once the Killer picks them up get in his line of sight so the chase music starts. Drop your smoke bomb and run, you'll escape the chase because the Killer is distracted trying to hook someone.

Yeah, I decided that I want to play a wide variety of killers now while keeping Freddy as my main and Myers as my secondary.

Oh I don't remember if he was broken or not. I forgot only the Killer sees the icon.

Objects include Gens, Lockers, Vaults, chests, totems
I never knew The Plague could purge on totems! Is there any way to know how long the vomit remains on an object? Does it go away if not touched after a set period of time?
-
What is this? I used it hoping for the 100% Deviousness bloodpoints, I even used Distressing! How do you score Deviousness points with her?

If I want as many Survivors infected then I should wait to visit the fountain that turns the purge red, correct? Because the red doesn't actually infect people? @Rulebreaker

Are "objects" considered the generators? I wasn't sure what they meant by that 🤔

It’s only hard at first trust me. Play against some bots! Nurse is easier than blight for sure. Plaid Flannel helps a lot.
I’m not sure about advice for Blight though, I was good with him immediately.
The bots have wall hacks, I can't practice anything with them.

That’s why in my humble opinion I think she is the hardest killer to be good at. Nurse and Blight are much harder at first but are so overpowered that once you become even mediocre at them you 4k the majority of games.
Huntress is more simple to pick up in the beginning but even when you get good at her it’s very easy to lose control of a game. In conclusion; buff Huntress plz
I came close to ragequitting when trying Nurse and Blight. They are impossible to control and I don't know what I'm doing.

@SuspiciousBrownie said:
Why do we have Ultra Rares that encourage a killer to not use their power or use it as little as possible? IRI Head is almost exclusively used for insane zoning because you only get one. It’s boring to go against as survivor because there is no chase. And feels awful to use because you have to reload every 5 seconds if you are actually trying to throw past 16 meters.
And don’t even get me started on Soldiers Puttee. It’s not even worthy of being a brown add on honestly. Who wants to be an M1 killer with essentially a 45 meter terror radius? It’s for memeing only as literally any other add on is better for an actual advantage.
How difficult would it be to change some add ons? I’m really not sure if it’s difficult or not because a lot of killers have awful Ultra Rares. But I think Huntress has the worst by far. Encouraging you not to use your power at all or in very boring ways. It’s a shame because there is so much fun stuff that could be done to change them.
I know a P100 Huntress that only uses aura reading perks...

I honestly forgot about sac wards, good shout
Last time I checked they were definitely bugged FYI. Literally every map that was offered we went to irrespective of which side offered it. I understand there's a chance you'll still get the offered map with a Sac Ward, but this was like 5 or 6 in a row. I can't believe that is a coincidence.

@Botiz said:
High MMR at a killer who can't compete at that level has to single-handedly be one of the most exhausting experiences in Dead by Daylight.
I've played 13 games in a row, of which 9 had map offerings used, and no joke, every single game had styptics or syringes in. Every. single. game. What makes it worse is these aren't even difficult to get in the bloodweb, at the higher levels they appear every other web.
Like, I play Wraith and even running 3 slowdowns isn't enough, when, combined, survivors are running like 10+ second chance perks on top of the styptics/syringes and map offerings.
I don't need to win to have fun, close games where either side wins are fun, but there's literally zero room for any fun when you're getting stomped.
Sure, my MMR will adjust, but then you play at a different time of day or matchmaking expands the buffer and then you win a load of games and you're back where you were before.
I'm tired, and think map offerings, styptics and syringes in particular urgently need addressing because it's getting ridiculous
Why don't you make a map offering? At least you'll have a chance to go where you want. Or a Sacrificial Ward?
About half of my Killer games are Sabo squads so I always assume that's what I'm going up against and adjust my perks according.

@Rulebreaker said:
We'd say yes it's a meta build.
As the one above says, only the endurance gets cancelled when you do a conspicuous action. The stealthy part stays (you can kinda tell because your still silent).
What if a teammate heals me after being unhooked, while this is active? I still have endurance at full health? It would require 3 hits from the Killer to put me into dying state?
I'm having so much fun with these! I keep trying to bait the Killer so I can practice hitting the DS Skill Checks.

That's sad. Another time Switch players get the poopy end of the stick but I guess it's out of BHVR's hands.
Now I'm kinda glad I didn't buy any of the content that own on Switch for Steam as well. Pyramid Head, Cheryl and Mikaela will be forever trapped on my Nintendo but at least we still get their perks. I know I won't be spending another penny on this game on Switch and I hope Nintendo loose money over this.

I just never see 4 aura reading perks on any killer. The rare nurse or huntress once in a blue moon so it makes me doubt people who say we see them everyday 24/7. I'm sure you can understand that right?
I watch a lot of streamers too and i never see them going against 4 aura reading perk killers or use 4 aura reading perks, so i dunno.. maybe its a region thing then. Aura reading isn't that strong unless you are one of the top killers that can use them well.
It's brutal in my region. For me, it's always Lethal and BBQ coupled with Weave and FD, or Nowhere to Hide or Gearhead. It's insane.
I think it's regional because for me it's usually all Killers on the roster.
Yesterday I played against a Trapper, Deathslinger and Clown using those builds.
Everyone dead at 4 gens except the Deathslinger. He was broadcasting his gameplay so I played back his view of the match and he spent some time in the void so we all died at 2 gens remaining .

because they broke it. It wasn’t perfect when every killer is running 4 aura perks.
all my games have lethal pursuer, bbq and chili, gen aura reading and healing aura reading plus addons on for aura reveal.. occasionally I don’t see healing aura reveal but they have predator on instead which guess what, aura reveals after escaping a chase.So yes distortion did need buffing and it still needs buffing more

Thats just a lie. Ive not seen single killer run 4 aura reading perks. Max is usually 1-2. Mostly i see 4 gen defense or sloppy butcher + 3 gen defense. Even Leverage is more used nowdays.
This is not a lie. Those are how my games go as well. 3 to 4 aura perks essentially allowing the Killers to see all Survivors almost all the time.
Distortion is still not worth anything.
It needed a buff, not a nerf.
In my opinion it should start with 4 tokens but not allow them to be regained.
Please don't call people liars, as we all have different MMR, live in different regions and play at different times.
The meta you see is not necessarily what others see.

I have a funny one. I was playing as a SoloQ Survivor with two Quentins in the lobby. In end game, on Badham, I opened the exit gate but decided to help them and be the hero.
Quentin 1 got hooked and Quentin 2 went down trying to unhook him. I rescued both of them and went down. The Killer hooked me for the first time during the match right by the exit gate I opened.
The Quentins healed each other and ran up to where I was hooked. The both looked up at me, nodded and ran out the exit gate leaving me to die. The Killer wasn't even camping.
While this should have angered me, it made me literally laugh out loud 😂
I don't know why it didn't bother me, but I'm grateful for the laugh. I do not condone the behavior, for the record.

I just started using it today on all my Survivors. It has taken the place of Distortion for me.

I been doing the event as survivor, mainly going for pumpkins. I have played countless matches, most have had the killer let survivors go to get PB but even the odd sweaty killer just got the kills and that was the end of it...next match.
I went killer once, I also didn't play seriously and let survivors win and go for event points. End of the match I had abuse from the survivors "l2p" "bad killer" lol any wonder why killers have no mercy and slug, tunnel, camp to get kills in normal mode? I know not all survivors are like that but an overwhelming majority are. I honestly wish I had played like I usually do but that's on me I suppose. Back to the usual play of tunneling, camping and slugging I think, if I'm going to have abuse hurled at me then I might as well give a good reason for it 😁
How insane! I love the occasional farming Killers! I'm sorry you were treated that way, absolutely uncalled for. I play on PS5 with anonymous mode and all the privacy settings on the Playstation so that nobody can harass me.

Hi friends!
I just wanted to update this post as I purchased the Digital bundle on PS5 today and wanted to let you all know this game is worth the $50.00
I have only been working on the Halloween game but it is do fun! If you like platformers and horror (we all love horror) then you will enjoy this game!
There is an in-game currency (candy corn) which you can use to unlock extra health, new moves, ect.
I was weary about the price tag but took the leap and wanted to remind everyone the bundle with the DLCs is $50 until November 17th. After the 17th, it will be $60.
It's like a Super Mario/Mega Man type game but with horror icons! Believe it or not, the gameplay and story were done well enough for it to make sense in the Halloween world!
You won't get bored even if you just beat the games as there are things you can unlock in the museum.
Anyway, I hope you're all doing well and if you pick up the game, leave your thoughts 😊
Edit:
I would ❤️ to see Dead by Daylight come to this series with maybe The Trapper, Huntress, Dwight, Claudette or any other unlicensed Killers and Survivors!

Don't worry about quitters. Some "survivors" do it if they feel slightly inconvenienced. Griefers should be reported though. I'd have freed the Mikela (using the anti-face-camp mechanic to let her unhook herself) and killed the Sables. Depending on how bad they behaved, I'd have slugged them to death.
Survivors playing that instrument is pretty nice. That's usually a ticket for an easy exit as far as I'm concerned 😊
The Solo-Q experience varies. I rarely have complains. My survival rate is maybe 55%. Some matches are pretty discouraging, mostly because of rage-quitters and newbies strangely put in my lobbies.
I tried that but it wasn't until she hit 2nd stage that I found out what was happening. I chased the Sables but 2 just hung around and one stayed upstairs.
She was hooked right outside the house on Basham where Survivors can block you in the room with the generator. I felt so bad for her.
I sent in at least 5 griefing reports with recorded video evidence and nothing happened during 2v8.
I got a feedback report only recently for reporting a hacking Dracula.
I'm really disappointed that people are being allowed to grief and not face a temp ban. This is really out of control. I go out of my way to record, upload and report. It doesn't sound like much but it gets tiring.

Wow, I can't believe how awful this feels. All my Killers are still running LP with BBQ and I thought Distortion started with 2 tokens. It only starts with one.
I don't blame any Killers, they're just doing their job but SoloQ is not worth it at all right now. Even in my Killer games someone just quits.
SoloQ was so bad, I decided to just do the Killer role for my challenges. Out of 5 Killer matches, I had 3 in which people went next, one where 3 Sable players griefed the Mikela on hook and one where the Survivors just memed around playing the 🎸.

Windows. Since the Killer will now be able to see you more often, making you vulnerable for chases, Windows shows you resources around you, which works as a compensation.
Also, may I suggest you to test out the new Lucky Star instead of Kindred? It may seem even stronger than Kindred in it's current state and is really good for solo.
I didn't know Lucky Star had a change, I'll load up the game and read its description.

Windows is always a good shout. Maybe throw in an exhaustion perk like Lithe or Sprint Burst instead. Lithe + Resi is a good combo. If you want an alternative to Distortion, Object of Obsession might be a good shout, but if you're not super confident in chase the passive aura reveal can backfire at times.
Or you can wait until the patch drops that buffs Distortion, they're making it 15s to recharge so it'll probably be worth again after that change.
Oh, I didn't know that. Will that buff have to go through the PTB first though?

Yeah, thats true. You can use Plottwist once at any time to down yourself and heal, and the perk will deactivate after this. Then, once the 5th gens pops and the exit gates are powered, the perk activates again and you can use it a second time, often handing you a cool, free escape unless the killer has Deerstalker or just is extemely lucky and stumlbes over you.
I just saw a video a few days ago of a Survivor using it to down themselves like 5 times in a row and allowing their teammate to heal them. Is that a glitch?
The Claudette intentionally got hit by the Killer, then her and a friend ran to a different part of the map and the Claudette would plot twist and the teammate would recover her as though she was farming altruism points.
