Geez @Peasant don't give him ideas. Playing against an afk killer is not fun.
@DeadByFlashlight, why don't you just start playing survivor?I do from time to time, but playing survivor is quite boring to be honest.
It all boils down to holding M1 and runing in circles.
Since they removed all horror aspects of being a survivor, theres not much left in my eyes and I am not the kind of "clicky clicky" guys if you understand what I mean

Well, @DeadByFlashlight , between DC and afk, I prefer you just play Freddy.Haha, nice one

@UncannyLuck said:
Don't use add-ons then?Immediately DCing makes the survivors de-pip as well, but AFKing wastes everyone's time. That's why I suggested playing normally and DCing at the end.
Survivors blackpip if the killer DCs, but it wastes their offerings.
Playing addon dependent killers without addons.... well guess what happens if I get bullied with addons already

No, you won't be banned for that.
If you want a macro for A and D check this:
https://github.com/rlevet/dbd-autostruggle
For space, just bind Wheelup or wait for the dbd-autospaceYes you can get banned for that, dont spread false information.
If EAC detects yuor macro, BHVR wont give a damn about your situation and you have a perma banned account because you didnt want to struggle manually.Whether you wanna take this risk is up to you

DeadByFlashlight said:sometimes I can only get one kill via hardcamping
Hold on i think that guy you camped to death has something to say
No actually it was a killer main that completely understood my situation and said that he deranks regularly on killer to avoid this kind of gameplay.

DC is anathema. Should be punished by castration.
Being afk is almost as bad. If I have 30 minutes to play some games, I don't want to run around doing gens without any excitement, like it was some tutorial.
But what do you mean "trolling killer"? You can't "troll" an afk player...All this depipping bs is ridiculous anyway. Just play your bloody game.
Queue times are ridiculous at rank 1 and the unbalance is outrageous. I dont play killer just to pull my hair out after a 4 min genrush where I cant even get to use my moris etc.
You cant troll an afk killer? Tell that the survivors that tbagg in front of me for ages, yes even aftre 30 mins when I come back they still tbagg in front of me.
If the devs would balance their bloody game and make all killers viable, not only nurse, then I will be a competitive player as I usually am in multiplayer games, but the current state of the game makes this impossible sadly
Then you're not afk anymore - how about firing up your chainsaw and making some gaping chest wounds? But more importantly, if rank 1 games are that harrowing, and killers are unviable, then you should be able to derank simply by playing, right? If as you say, the deck is so stacked against killers you'd be down at rank 10 again in no time.
It's so bizarre to argue about it, but it's just like that: you play well, you rank up. Then you're stuck with players who are good. Challenge. Enjoy it. Just please please don't waste other people's time by DC-ing or being afk.AFK = away from keyboard, aka not moving
Yes, there are some very special survivor out there that smash there ctrl button for 30 minutes, but then they complain that their keyboard is getting destroyed during struggle phase
unfortunately piping is so easy that you will always get to rank 1 just by palying enough, thats a major problem of the rank system
And no, I dont enjoy games where I can only get a single kill by hard camping at the end. Thats not the kidn of game I want to play and the devs havent balanced the game around genrush, so I see no problem wanting to play the game as it was designed.
If you dont wanna give me an answer what you prefer, afk or DC, thats fine, but I will derank and thats for sure

@UncannyLuck said:
Have you considered playing the game and then DCing at the end when they escape / are going to escape? I think that's the fairest way to de-rank for everyone involved.So I use addons to play normally and then DC and dont get any BP?
Seems like a really bad idea.And you have to realize that I derank in order not to get bullied, playing would defeat this purpose

@Vietfox said: BL was added to counter looping and stuff. Since they reduced the number of pallets and redesigned the maps to reduce the loops BL wasn't necessary anymore. Besides, they basically nerfed BL3, and almost everyone said already that they rarely needed BL3 to get the down. Why nerf it if it was used so rarely? @DeadByFlashlight
I guess it's because BL3 with less loops would be too much.
These kind of questions should be asked to the devs anyway. Op should tag mods to get a proper reply.
There are still plenty of loops in the game to keep you occupied for a few minutes and it doesnt take more time to knock out the gens.
Playing at high rank against sweaty SWF during the BP event, they didnt even use half of the pallets before the game was over, probably not even a third
@DeadByFlashligh
Did all 4 survive? When i play as a killer more than half of the pallets are destroyed by the end of the match, either if they are solo players or sweaty swf
Not all players are sweaty swf btw.No I got a 1 hook after ruin+4 gens were done and ofc I didnt let that guy go away anymore

That was a really sweaty SWF though, ofc not all games are like this. Still, SWF is part of the game and the game has to be balanced around this. If the devs cant see this or ignore this fact, then I will simply stop playing those unbalanced games and derank in order to have fun.I like to paly competitively, but playing when there isnt even the chance to win? No thx

@MegaWaffle said:
People have been offering legitimate balance ideas and completely biased balance ideas since day 1 of this games release. The developers over at BHVR clearly want this game to go as THEY intend and do not want to create a true horror game but rather a casual game of tag with knives.Nothing has changed that hasn't been revert near instantly, nothing has improved that hasn't been mucked up in some way and nothing will make this game what people had truly hoped it could be. I'm not saying everyone has to jump on my train of thought here but it certainly saves you trouble when you learn you will have no affect on the community so long as the Devs are in the mindset of "we decide whats best".
For Honor is a great example of the road DBD is going down. Slow to improve anything, quick to revert changes, hype DLC that offers no community suggested changes and a dwindling amount of hope to see the game at the potential it could have reached. DBD won't "die" but it won't remain a huge success should another game come along that follows the asymmetrical horror theme properly.
I like to view DBD as PUBG vs Fortnite. We are simply waiting for that "Fortnite" comparison to take root in this genre to challenge DBD (PUBG)'s claim to the throne.
PS: I don't enjoy Fortnite but the analogy works all the same.
EDITED TO CORRECT GRAMMAR
Sad but true

RSB said:Looping was too hard. I mean, survivor could do just 5 rounds around the pallet, now he can do 8. Balanced (y)
looping should be in the tutorial if its the biggest intended mechanic of chases.
That would turn off new players immediately if they are told that the whole game is designed aroudn runing in circles

Playing at high rank against sweaty SWF during the BP event, they didnt even use half of the pallets before the game was over, probably not even a third.I had games where it was sufficient to drop 3-4 pallets the whole game, but those were real optimal survivors and thats the reason I derank now lol

@Razorkiller said:
I mean, looking at this right now seems to be promising. But I still feel like it should be a little bit extended or compensated a tiny bit more. Of course I don't want this to be a thing that Hooks gave survivors an invincibility but something that would help everyone not to farm on the hook. Thus savior can do his job by saving but when the Killer immediately goes for the person who's being unhooked seems to be upsetting most of the time. (As a matter that there are annoying moments to even succeed these achievements by having a Killer not playing fairly). Also to mention that Killers will keep on doing this because the game doesn't have any restrictions about this and this is pretty abusing as it is right now and even before.
Long story short: Give this something that would prevent from both sides getting hurt.Its the survivors decision whether they farm each other, not the killers.
I really dont get why the killer is punished for that now
-
@BMAN said:
It frustrates me to no end that survivors can body block a hook till the end of time and deny you of a kill, and if you even did get that hook (unlikely) they can unhook then straight away from the sides of the hook and body block the survivor to safety. Very frustrating. I wonder if being able to hook survivors from the side would make the body blocking less effective and more fair on the killers side.Nah only survivors are allowed to unhook from all sides. This is realism!
-
@SenzuDuck said:
Can we not pretend sabo is even a big deal, 9 out of 10 matches you don't even see someone running sabo.
It needs a straight buff if anything, not a "you do gens slower" nerf.Survivors dislike being slugged, but at the same time you want to buff sabotage.
Do you see a problem in this approach?

If you like to spend your time on the floor, I can live with that

@Legacy_Zealot said:
A minor thing that may help is to make yourself the last one to ready up. A lot of SWF will pull a fast one and do something like all carry toolboxes and then ready so you cant tweak your build ect. If you are the last to ready you decide when it starts. Or neither of you do it and you lose anyway because there's a timer. But meh.I gave up lobby dodging in red ranks. The queue takes too long and I only dodged 3 flashlights once because I played hag.
Usually quick switchers are just toxic idiots that follow you anyway and are far less from playing optimal. I can deal with these shitheads, but when the survivors pop gens in a few minutes, theres nothing I can do> @Well_Placed_HexTotem said:The core of the game is still designed perfectly fine for high rank, what ruins it is SWF. Survivors are supposed to have 16 perks as a team, SWF gives you access to the effects many perks give you simply by being able to communicate with each other. You basically get free Bond, etc. One survivor sees your hex totem, you chase them off and engage, it’s guaranteed to be cleansed shortly after. And if you build end game strategies like Blood Warden or NOED, welp, too bad.
A majority of the ranks are fine because SWF is less of an issue.
SWF is a big part of the issue, but as marth prooved, the game is broken without voice comms too

@Lowbei said:
meh, just dont play killer at rank1, its not worth it.”we dont want survivors to feel safe in front of the killer, thats why we are implementing a new feature called bloodlust.”
vs
”we are nerfing bloodlust because it allows a killer to eventually catch someone looping.”
—
“shouldnt feel safe in front of killer”
”looping is a core game mechanic”
”nerfing bloodlust for balance”They never changed the maps or increased the speed you gain bloodlust as promised,....

I am trying to reach rank 1 for the achievment currently and I cant think of any reward that could force me to go through the unbalance again.First they need to balance the game, then they need to make ranking actually mean sth and then we can talk about rank rewards.
It cant be real that at rank 2 I face teams where I get a single hook after 4 gens poped with ruin and only kill that guy due to hard camp, then the next game I 4k with ease with 2 gens left.
Piping is way too easy in this game.
Btw, after I reached rank 1 I will derank back to 15 lol
In a asymmetrical game it's never really going to be 100% balanced but it's been better than it was which is the main thing. Of course there still plenty of things still need looking at but most games I'm not facing SWF full of DS, flashlights and toolboxes so why not?
Yeah, piping is just a playtime thing really, grinding the game can get you further up more than skill can.
Of course an asymetrical game can be balanced.
I reached rank 1 now btw and Im heading down to fun areas again. Its just sad that deranking takes at least three times more time as trying to pip, but well I have another nice game to play in the meantime^^ -
@Peasant said:
If you're gonna de-rank either way, the afk route is the lesser of two evils. While it won't let survivors get the full use out of all offerings (White Ward, Oak, etc.) The free time gives them a chance to get a refund of sorts.As for what killer to use, I recommend Doctor as you can just stay in treatment mode and act as an Objective BP fountain. This will Max their BP sooner and get them to leave faster.
Thats interesting, havent thought of that.
Actually I wanted to buy freddy just to derank with him, but the sale is over now... xD

Never mind, hitting space 10 times and it works.... kinda weird^^

Thats a glitch, and you were always able to grab people of things after a blink
btw, nurse with controller and that fps... damn

@Doc_W__HOLLIDAY said:
I seriously hope you're not saying killers should run to the edge of the map and masturbate in a corner while you get a free escapeNo they actually get really salty if you go afk and let them have a free win.
That would be "boring" -
@megaweenieman said:
You’re not good. I’m rank 5 killer main too so don’t give me that salty survivor bs. You know it, I know it, everybody knows it 😄If playing tactically is not good, then I am not a good killer. I can live with that though

@Easylife said:
The changes are:Season reset & rank pip changes:
- Players at Rank 15 will not be able to de-rank to Rank 16 (unless it's rank reset)
- From Rank 16 - 20, players will not lose pips or de-rank.
The number of pips that players receives back when the rank reset occurs has been adjusted to create distinct Rank pools.
Looks like the first steps to "fix" de-ranking to stay at rank 20 while making rank 16-20 something EVERYONE will soon get out of as it's impossible to rank down or lose pips until rank 15.
Thoughts?Basically all this change achieved were insane queue with low ranks and that they removed 5 ranks from the actual pool of ranks

Try to use Predator and Stridor (Bloodhound?). The main idea is to track survs by their scratch marks, moans and blood. It becomes ridiculously easy to do with these perks and decent earphones. Also you can try to mindgame injured surv in the pallet if you want. The thing is, the surv doesn't see you but you can hear them and see their scratch marks and blood. This is a very huge advantage about the Spirit
I think you haven't played the Spirit.
My words sound obvious but actually explain a reliable strategy. You know what? I think ppl should stop complaining about nothing and start getting good. They don't want to learn the new killer, they just want easy win every match. I 4K every game I play using this tactic btw.
If you would play the Spirit, you would know, that she can;t see blood while using her power.
I just said it's possible to track survs by blood using Bloodhound, but I don't run it at all and prefer Stridor instead. I know she is not able to see the blood by default. Bet there was a misunderstanding.
"The main idea is to track survs by their scratch marks, moans and blood.", "The thing is, the surv doesn't see you but you can hear them and see their scratch marks and blood. This is a very huge advantage about the Spirit.", no, there was no misunderstanding, you were just lying and now you are retreating. Stop pretending that you play her, because you do not even know how she works.
And who knows? Maybe you? Dude you are very funny. Everyone knows how she works, but not everyone plays her the way devs want her to be played like. All ppl can do is complain and ask for buffs, because MAN IT'S NOT EZZZZZ TO PLAY HER ANOTHER TRASH KILLER GOOD JOB SO FAR
Don;t dodge, like a typical survivor. You got catched on your lie, and you went batshit.
This becomes kinda boring. Maybe you want at least tell me where I lied?
Read my previous comments, the same ones, that you quoted.
It's really hard to explain you where you're wrong in foreign language (in english in this case) but I'm still gonna try to.
I played the Spirit for around 20 hours already and know how she works. Her ability allows her to track survivor movements by scratch marks, moans and even blood (if you run Bloodhound). So, I have no idea what makes you think that I'm lying (really, where am I doing this? xD) and 'pretending to play her'. She is good at where she is now, but I don't mind some tweaks here and there. I don't want other killers be, as you said, weak. Guess you're thinking that I'm one of these 'dirty survivor mains' but I'm actually not. I main both sides

I've played Spirit for ~30 hours in PTB, now I have her P3-50 with all perks, spend next ~30 hours on her, and she is weak.
Also your lies discredited all your further arguments.
I don't ask you how much time you spent playing Spirit, I ask you where I am lying and still wait for the answer. But I see you're ridiculously stubborn. Well, it seems like I will never know. How disappointing

I sais check out the comment, where I pointed out where you were lying, but you are still pretending "ooooo, waiting where I was lying ;<<<<".
Sorry, maybe I'm blind, but I can't find any lies on my side. I just posted my own harmless guide in the topic 'Spirit Guides' and then I was accused of lying. I didn't even argue anything, but you say 'my lies discredit all my arguments'. Lmao, what... You have so narrow perception of word 'lie'. Such feeling that even you don't know now why you accused me of lying.
My god, do I really need to copy it for you again?
"The main idea is to track survs by their scratch marks, moans and blood.", "The thing is, the surv doesn't see you but you can hear them and see their scratch marks and blood. This is a very huge advantage about the Spirit.",
You pretend you play Spirit, and "4k everytime", but in fact you don't. If you would, you would know that she can't see blood. But you heard that she can see blood (she copuld in PTB), and you did not know it got fixed. You, instead, saw that reasonable people want her to be buffed, because she is weak, so you, and many others, started to pretending like if she is good, because "you can 4k everytime with her", which is a lie, because you don't even know how she works. And if you do not even know how she works, therefore you can't "play her".
I said I know she can't see blood (only with BH, which I also mentioned), but you replied to it with 'no misunderstanding, you're still lying'. Considering this, all your further thoughts automatically become irrelevant. But you're still saying I'm lying. Good job m8, you can continue if you want.
"Bu-b-but I said..." - no, you did not. Don't try to flip your comments, you are already done.

Hi, i have a problem that have been on for a long time, i can easily find a match as a survivor in a matter of seconds, but when i choose to play as a killer none of the survivors join my game, one time i have waited for 30min none of them have joined. It looks like survivors cant even find my game. My rank is 20 bec i came back to this game after a long time.Low rank queues are terrible right now, rank up a bit and it will become better

It might be a first step to give incentive to play vs SWF; but SWF is broken gameplay wise and needs to be addresed by balancing

@MisterCremaster said:
What is rubber banding, and why would your lag effect the killer? Killer is game host... Its the only ping I care about.Netcode acts weird in DBD.
Huntress for example has real problems with rubberbanding survivors. M1 killers usually do fine due to the hitcones.

@George_Soros said:
I'd guess saying BHVR supports DC is downright crazy. Sure they don't punish teabagging and other stuff that's considered "toxic" by some (whatever "toxic" means), bu they're clearly against DC-s. That said, I'm completely for a MUCH harsher punishment system for disconnecting, I've also had sometimes 8-9 games with at least one DC in a row. No excuse for that, be it "tunneling" or some other made up rationalization. We need many players for dbd of course, to keep lobby waiting time to a minimal, but we don't need those idiots who can't deal with being downed.
I'm a little sidetracked here, but I also gotta say, survivors should also receive at least a slight bonus BP- or pipwise when another survivor DC-s early on.
You mentioned jendenise: I'm not 100% sure, but I think she only disconnects around the end of the game, which does not make a lot of difference. Maybe someone can confirm it; but if this is the case, then it's an entirely different story.BHVR supports those fog streamers. They get free codes to give away and extra advertisement for their channel. Saying that this is not support is downright crazy.

@Cass said:
I hate killers DCing. Too often I loose offerings which were too special to be wasted like that.How can you troll a killer who is AFK? tbag as much you want but he might be drinking a beer watching Southpark.
The more you tbagg and flashligth click at him, the longer the game takes and the longer deranking takes.
I am not gonna spend more time deranking than actually playing the game

Right now in more than half of the games I was being hold hostage, seems I will do it with DCing just like certain fog streamers do it too

I personally love to just boost the speed. Don't care for faster recharge, will use longer duration sometimes. The purple addon that increases speed, duration, AND recovery speed is also really nice.
When I use her power to go to a gen, don't go directly to it. Kinda go around and try and predict where the survivors will go since they hear your phase walk, it'll catch them off guard real good if you're right.
When in a chase, I ONLY use it if they lose sight of me. The Game map is fantastic because the second they go around a wall use it. If they see you stop and use your power, they'll know to stop running or they'll change direction but if they don't see you stop, they usually don't stop either.
Make sure you're using headphones too, sound is almost what completely determines if you'll follow them correctly or not since the scratch marks might not always be reliable.
She takes a lot of practice, and you have to predict survivor movement.
Hopefully this helps at least a little
Do you record your gameplay?
If you really 4k so often at rank 1, then I would like to learn from you
Of course I am using headphones, but when they use iron will, you will have a hard time catching that guy at all
My link got deleted, didn't know that happened here. How should I get you the link to the gameplay?
You can just copy pasta the link as comment, that usually works.
Or post it on my profile, i dont care -

While almost everything you say is true, this also means that you're just not meant to be a rank 1 yet. I am a rank 1 killer and I almost always get all people, even with Freddy. That's simply because most survivors aren't that good at the game and only know how to pallet loop (sometimes). Once the loops are gone, they don't know what to do. Just take NOED with you since it's a go-to perk in rank 1. Yes you'll get salt in the after-chat (even if they destroy it in time)You could use Nurse and combine Thanatophobia and Ruin or just get a few nice builds on multiple killers.
I'm using Save the Best for Last, BBQ, NOED and Monitor and Abuse on Michael and almost always get everyone without any gen slowers. It's annoying when you have insta savers because they kind of force you to hard patrol but other than that, it's not a big deal.Oh yea. Avoid the obvious distracting survivor. The one that wants your attention all game long.
Wish I would get your survivors then, but the SWF I versed can definitely not be won with freddy or troll builds^^
are you playing on console by any chance?^^
I am disgusted by console xD So no. I play normally on rank 1 on Steam. Getting streamers with over 4000 hrs who sometimes don't know how the game works cause they're only ''good'' at pallet looping. Just use the ''hints'' I gave you, trust me.
NOED is one kill if you are lucky and it is a lacking perkslot during the normal game.
I just cant see myself as hag (playing her atm) how I am supposed to deal with 4 min genrushs. There simply isnt enough time to set up traps to be prep the loops and without those traps they will loop you into infinity.
THen there are all the flashlight and instaheals..... just yikes -

Yeah, I've been playing a lot of rank 1 Survivor recently and the gens are usually all done by the time the killer get their second hook. I'm seeing a lot more 3+ blink, ebony Mori nurses. As much as it sucks to play against them, I can't really fault the killer because that's what it takes to play at the rank 1.Yeah using several moris now I actually made it to rank 1. Got the achievment and will go back to rank 15 now by derankign afk while playing balanced games

I was playing hag..... I cant stand the nurse fatigue and thats really unfortunate because she is the only balanced killer at high lvl
-
80% of the community consits of survivors
Ofc they will prevent that by threatening to leave the game

Exactly. There's less line of sight on this map than even in swamp. Trying to find the last survivor during hatch rush is almost impossible if not for the fact that hatch tends to spawn near middle of map (I've noticed this is the only map that has a STRONG, very STRONG bias towards spawning hatch near middle of map).I'd rather take swamp than this map. At least swamp you can play more than those five killers I mentioned above and at least sacrifice one or two survivors who are GOOD.
If you didnt slugg the 2nd last survivor, dont even bother. Just go afk until they find the hatch.
If you want to 4k, then there is no way aroudn slugging until devs rework the hatch mechanic -
If you set up hag traps all the time, it really screws her over.

Yes, being affected by something that's instantaneous is definitely a test of your reflexes. After all, who can't react before they're aware of a threat? You need to work on your spider-sense.Honestly, I would love if they bring back instaflashes.
The killer population would switch to other games and maybe devs would actually have to buff killers properly and balance the game to prevent the game from dieing

unfair to weaker killers... You should be able to feel strong as a killer and when you vs a 4man swf all with decisive, dead hard, self care, adrenaline and they focus on rushing gens. its an anti fun match. I mean if you are a survivor that runs all the meta perks you are a legit loser. Like in every aspect. Just another meta pussy. Fix the game.. sadly these survivors got too cocky and I pipped killed 2 of them while the other 2 t-bagged at exit gate... Wish I didn't pip I don't want to vs this #########. Fix your game please!Thats why you have to derank regularly if you play weak killers and dont want to pull all your hair out.
Just start a few afk games while watching a movie or preping meals or sth like this

So did anyone in red ranks get a single game that wasn't 4 man swf rushing gens?
Last two days they were only games I was getting and as you can imagine they are not very fun.I know that devs idea of perfect balanced game is 20 minutes long. That is why my average games are 4-5 minutes. More if they f***up.
Sometimes they 3 man only

The games that last longer than 10 minutes are really rare, usually 4-7 mins

I am trying to reach rank 1 for the achievment currently and I cant think of any reward that could force me to go through the unbalance again.
First they need to balance the game, then they need to make ranking actually mean sth and then we can talk about rank rewards.
It cant be real that at rank 2 I face teams where I get a single hook after 4 gens poped with ruin and only kill that guy due to hard camp, then the next game I 4k with ease with 2 gens left.
Piping is way too easy in this game.
Btw, after I reached rank 1 I will derank back to 15 lol

just look at your exp after a match, 520 exp would be 520 seconds.... normally that isIs it really calculated this way?

I used ruin, bait hex, bbq and sloppy butcher
That pink addon is really nice, but you cant afford it every game.
I stopped playing her tbh as I realized that you pretty much get bullied with her if you use the "crappy" addons.
