Where have you heard this from? Oh god how would that even work on a game like this.discord and lobby chat, maybe works for championships with 2 vs 8 matches in 2 teams?
You do realize that the official 1vs4 tournament turned out to be an insane joke because it exposed the unbalance of the game so hard.
Devs will never try to do that again

@akbays35 said:
I just don't know how to feel about it. I'm seeing less camping, but more tunneling, chases are way way shorter, pallets seem really reduced, game time is really shortened to either a quick 4k or 2 people gen rushing and escaping. Meta perks didn't really change or non meta perks being more effective, people are grabbing more medkits I noticed. Hooking animation and sounds are really weird now.Well devs didnt adress the gen situation, so.....

Lol I just want to play with my friends, I don't need to justify that xD has nothing to do with ezmode - it just sucks to instead of playing you are waiting...Of course it is ezmode if you play SWF

@unclevincent said:
The title says it all, it takes forever. When each one goes as single player, it goes relatively fast - and that's what bothers me. Why are single players preferred in such a strong matter over SWF groups?? We wait for like 10 minutes straight (no exaggeration) and find no games at all. Can you fix this please, Behavior???Wait until the killers start lobbydodging.
How about not playing ez-mode and trying solo if the queue takes too long as SWF?

I used to be a big SC user, but then realised the time it took made for it to be not so useful, and at higher ranks survivors are more team players. My suggestion to replace SC and its great. BOND!
If you are injured then just find a survivor. There heals are so much faster and of course added bonus, you can find survivors to Co op on gens etc. Don't think I will be using SC again, long live SC ;-)BOND is a useless perk. Voice comms already provide that, ez pez
-
Yeah BHVR messed up the lobbies again.
But we should take a break from DBD after rank reset anyway, so it kinda fits
-
And what did the devs say about that?

7 months later, nothing happened
-
OoO is still insanely powerful.
THe best looper in the SWF takes it and the whole squad knows the exact killers position at any time. Killers like the trapper can just DC against sth like that -
Definitely interesting.
Wonder how such a blur effect would work for injured survivors aswell

Sad truth, I get around 4 DC's every 10 games. Not much but that is four games ruined by people who DC to derank or just have a baby fit moment.
If you're a camper and down me or lagswitching and down me I'm going to dc. The camping I'll wait til just about struggle phase so they can do gens at least or escape if the gens are done. Lagswitching is a ridiculous problem on PS4. Green ping on entry and suddenly shifting frames every time killer is in a chase. I can tell when someone is about to get hit because suddenly lag and then someone's damage. Damn right I'm going to deny cheaters a kill.
I agree. Cheating Killers or Survivors is definitely a legit excuse to DC. I also don't blame my teammates when they DC after being tunneled, but DC'ing because you got down and hooked 1 time in the first two mins of the match is complete and utter childplay. Had a teammate that hit their DS before getting hooked their first time & got downed again then DC'd, like when did we start doing this?
This year I experienced 2 speed hacking survivors, noon else. Tunneling = DC
Yeah yeah, guys like you are the reason this game is going to hellHope you will get banned eventually

@Fishcat said:
So if you are survivor main it was already slow to stack up bloodpoints but after the update its even harder to escape with the changes yeah it supposed to be hard to escape but at least they could give more bloodpoints for survivors for doing other stuff then to balance things out but well.. just bit frustrating imoIts only hard to escape if your team is intentionally screwing you over.

@DeadByFlashlight said:
Do you like being slugged though?According to my experience, survivors get really salty when you slugg them and if they they bleed out, its like world ends

I mean, it's the whole point of sabotage mechanic. Not to be hooked. You also have combos available with Unbreakable, Tenacity, No Mither.
@CoolAKn said:
Honestly, all Saboteur needs is a 50% speed across all tiers, and make Hangman's Trick trump the increased time.When I tested the sabotage mechanic alone, it was already very fast to my surprise, and barely consumed the toolbox. I don't think it's what is really needed for Sabotage. Also, I removed the increased timer, because obviously my change will bring back Sabotage to a common tool, and killers need to have some way to hard counter it since they give up 1/4 perk slots against a team of 16 perk slots.
I know, but all survivors will go ham when you slugg them after they sabo hooks.
In their minds, you are supposed to try carrying them over the whole map to a hook just that they can wiggle out for a free escapeThe whole idea of sabotaging is a giant flaw if you ask me, nobody likes bleeding out on the floor spining circles and waiting

Wraff said:@PinkEricka said:
LMAO. Y’all would rather go through my comments voting “LOL’S” when y’all have yet to contradict me on what I’ve said.
Thats just classic.
Increasing the healing time wasn’t meant to solve the speed of the game, they specifically said they plan on adding a second objective to help out with that but y’all continue to sit up and whine about it.
To be fair. They "Plan" a lot of things. Fixing the Hatch, Buffing Freddy, and the DS rework. None of which has shown any progress
@Wraff The DS rework was planned to make it to this patch but the results were unsatisiying. They’re trying their best to make it balanced.
However, for the hatch, I honestly see no type of fix. I’ve thought of everything and looked at everyone’s ideas on it and I see no type of balanced outcome for it. Hatch rework is gonna have to take play on one sided favor whenever they like it or not. Freddy buff is coming soon too.
Maybe live up to the word “patient”.
Just like the hatch closing mechanic and the SC rework have been scheduled for the clown patch / midchapter patch, but suprisingly both of them were "unsatisfying" too and we never heard abotu them again.

@Brady said:
More than half of the streamers BHVR is/have supported, practice Unsportsmanlike Behavior...It's distasteful. Especially when you see a cosmetic in the game designed for them, but blatantly use their high viewer group as a leeway to play so rudely and ruin the other sides' gameplay.
Why is this? I sometimes would stream some and my friends who would linger to see what was going on would be so confused as to why someone's playing uhh... what's that fancy overused word? Oh right... toxic.
Yeah. Toxicity exists in everygame but it's unprofessional to support those who practice it on a business standpoint.
unsportsmanlike is a thing
Commiting bannable offenses and using programs that are not allowed (MLGA) is another thing.

Complaining about afk crows now xD
Are you really that bored?

I think this fits pretty well in here:

Considering killer is suppose to be the power role, what makes them a threat? Many have varying ideas on how they should be, but what I'd like to know is which features change a killer from easy- challenge- overpowered. Not referencing perks cause those are interchangeable or addons cause those are consumable/inconsistent.The only thing that makes killers a threat is the ability to counter loops.
Sadly only nurse has that abilityHuntress? She has the ability to counter loops. Although not as powerful as the Nurse as she doesn’t break the game mechanics like the Nurse does. Putting perks on killers such as Bamboozle can counter loops especially with EW III Myers. They just aren’t as strong as Huntress or Nurse in countering loops.
No she has not. A good survivor knows how to loop a huntress and it was only possible to counter loops with the old insta windup build

@Tsulan said:
Just had a match where i survivors stepped 7 times into my traps and 6 times they got instantly (2 seconds) out.
Is this working as intended? Shouldn´t the traps have a fixed timer?No its RNG and even luck offerings affect yuor traps btw.*
Trapper is in desperate need of a complete rework since they added SWF. Voice comms can completely deny his traps, especially if one of the SWF plebs uses OoO. Might as well DC in such a game

-
Those offerings are completely bugged.
I mean I even got doc splinters ,in my doc bloodweb. Excuse me?

@Ramxenoc445 said:
I don't really care about healing changes and all, but if you're going to be making the game easier for these complaining killer players at least redo the pallet hitboxes. It's getting annoying being hit through them when they're clearly on the other side but lunge and hit you through right before it finishes dropping. At least do survivors that. It's the one mechanic all survivors rely on and it's the most basic thing. I play a lot of killer when playing alone and I know it's not fair but it's so easy to abuse the fact that these pallets don't work you just lunge when you know they're gonna drop the pallet and you'll still get the hit most times. Pallets need to work not be a gamble on if you get hit or notYes the pallet hitboxes need to be reduced.
I always see the pallet drop INFRONT OF ME, but I still get stunned.
Pallets hitboxes need to be looked at
-
@thomasnut said:
It kills me to say this but, wow, just wow. did survivors ever get screwed over with this update. If you couldn't safety vault a pallet or window before. Just wait, you are in for a treat..Survivors always told us to quit after the slightest survivor nerfs. The amount of complanis regarding the exhaustion change..... lul

@MegaWaffle said:
@Rebel_Raven @DeadByFlashlightSadly I often reply to most of them with random translations/stories but once they get deleted so too do my posts. Sigh, what little fun I had vanishes.
I asked where I have to send the money for the college degree, but I never got an answer =(

@Lagoni said:
@Orion said:
Maybe you should use common sense.You can say that about pretty much anything?
Yes of course it's common sense to most, that DC'ing isn't okay, but if you have a job where you often get calls in your free time, but still want to play a game, then you will get reminded that you risk getting banned if you do it too much.
To a person in this position, it might not be immediately obvious that they will get banned for doing their job. With a prompt to remind them, they might just alt-tab.
Again; it's odd to have a button that essentially can get you banned for pressing it.
There is no arguing with minor bans, only permanent ones.Just dont DC for the call and go afk instead. Voila, problem solved, you can take the call and you dont get banned
-
Do you like being slugged though?
According to my experience, survivors get really salty when you slugg them and if they they bleed out, its like world ends

-
The only reason not to camp in such a situation would be NOED.
Not ranking up as killer is not a bad thing though, its actually a good thing^^

@Eight said:
Survivors be sniffing glue around the campfire again.They take harder stuff nowadays^^
-
2-3 frames? INSANE
Does that mean you reach the 30s eventually now?

-
For some reason, after every patch the lobbies are completely #########.
But thats fine for me, I take a break after rank reset anyway^^Btw, I cant get lobbies as survivor either

-
@Tzeentchling9 said:
Where were you when the Devs buffed all levels of Self Care to the Teir 3 perk speed? No issues with that change?L M F A O
When a survivor is complaining about tier1/2 versions of a perk that got buffed, then you know that its a deranking guy teaming up with rank 20s in order to crush beginner killers.
Just ignore those posts

@RSB said:
People playing on a phone's hotspot, or a damn McDonald's wifi, and then bitching about lags/lagstwitching are never failing to amuse me.The wording indicates that it was a killer hosting the game on the mobile hotspot.
Its indeed the survivors fault for nto quiting the lobby while having insane pings
-
Yes, the forum mods eventually will catch them^^
The forum reflects the ingame state very well though
-
@Vampirox said:
At this rate you might as well lock out MORI too since survivors no longer have something just as GOOD or OP. Its not really fair you take away something from one side and not from the other.At least implement before taking it away!
Ever played killer in a fog game?

@TheLegendDyl4n1 said:
i can control if my power breaker keeps flipping off by accident i mean what do you expect? you cant punish me for "accidents"Yes they can, just like any other game does too

@MegaWaffle said:
@Wolf74 @DeadByFlashlightThere has been a huge wave ban on PC with more on the way recently so BHVR is starting to finally take some action. As for we console peasants they are still setting up the ban system so all we can do is wait right now. From what I read it seems like all the data (from reports at endgame and data their system collected) is saved so that once the system is in place bans can begin immediately.
Certain fogstreamers are still deranking by DCing regularly and are not caught by the system.

DeadByFlashlight said:Yes working with the killer is bannble, but if you didnt do that, then you dont have to worry about it.
And stream sniping is not bannable, the devs have been pretty precise about this when they explained the new report system
They might not ban u for it but twitch and mixer sure will If they bust u
Just one question. How can twitch bann you from a game?
Even if they banned you on their own platform (they dont do that btw), then you could still watch the stream, you dont even need an account for that

But I know a certain fogstreamer that deranks regularly by DCing in order to hover between certain ranks and apparently that is still fineI know who your talking about and I think they need to hold sponsored streamers so to speak to a higher standard. That said if the person plays a ton of games each month then their % of games played versus games dc'd on is proportionally low.
That doesn't make it right it's just how it is at the moment but hopefully in the future they'll change that to the higher standard.
I have repeated this several times already.
it does NOT matter how much you play the game, in order to hover at a certain rank range, you will always have to DC a certain rate, no matter how much you play.
And since she is actually an experienced survivor that pips every game and sometimes even double pip, she needs to DC even more than others -
Soon TM
Look what happened to the hatch closing mechanic, the SC or DS rework.

-
The genmechanic is the real problem.
Sadly the devs are too lazy to rework it -
Hex totems should NOT give ANY notifcatiosn to the survivors AT ALL
Give a single example where the notification is catually necessary, you can dedude all notifcations if you actually pay attention. -
@The_Crusader said:
God it's so [BAD WORD] hard to level up in this game.Had another where someone rage quits. So the Doctor decides now is a good time to camp and tunnel me out of the game as he knows the other two won't be able to get the gens done in time. I lose a pip for that.
What a joke. Might as well just disconnect.
Guys like you are the problem here btw

@lordtalian said:
Okay I have seen killers complain about survivors and survivors complain about killers but tonight I faced the best one. Start game as teacher man, and obsession with no perk that makes me obsession, oh right and level 18 running 4 perks all at 1 pip. Rescue Jake cause cannibal hooks him, cannibal catches claudette on lower floor @ meat packing and downs her. Rescue Jake while claudette is being carried to hook as I am 1 room away upstairs, then run back to where I was and drop to bottom floor to unhook her. Third hooking and it is claudette again but I have gone back up to try and get a gen in the room I spawned in, gen 1 pops from my party member but cannibal catches Jake and hooks him upstairs. my party member has already ran for the claudette and me only 2 rooms away from where I was before go for jake. Cannibal is a smart one (and yes I respect the killers, they go through a lot) and finds me, run away right .... yup, he got me but I unhooked 3 people by this time so as teacher man I get a free pass off the hook. Of course that gets me broken status .... big poopy but avoid the killer, find the lair, go down and grab myself a tool box, before going upstairs ... great the broken status is gone so easy heal with 1 pip in self care, uh oh, cladette is being chased by the killer right where I just finished healing myself so hide behind a piller. She stands up, points then does the come here .... well it is a claudette so she likely has bond like I do .... go to follow cause we have not even seen each other physically for killer to be right in the area and down her, sadly in the broken status we had lost Jake (good man, did what he could for the team). See Claudette hooked 1 room over, we need 1 more gen and we are free .... go rescue claudette and cannibal has down my party member upstairs which had a great gen going, now the third time ... we say our fond farewells but the party isn't over yet, cannibal has found claudette .... I start running to get into a good position to get her off but forgot partner already took her off her second hook, partner says it is a lost cause and just duck in a locker .... sound advice but as I head for one I catch site of the hatch. Well only one thing left to do ... end game, GG's all around on PS4 (which I think a thumbs up deserved those being thumbed up about 1,000 blood points, cause some killers are just so on their game they impress heck out of me) and rate the game to get a friends request from poor claudette. I am a female dog, let 2 people die for the hatch, and I should just go delete the game .... exqueese me? Tell claudette to check her facts then recount the game to her from what I did. I hit all 3 floors, rescued 3 people from the hook, rescue myself, healed myself and as obsession kept my team from suffering penalites while avoiding the killer. Course I also added if they were going to rage like a child for me doing what I am supose to do then we both really knew who needed to delete the game. I may not be a prestige 3 claudette but I am pretty sure the obsession's purpose is to stay alive and help their team, I'm not tier 8 but I am proud of my 10 thank you ... with survivors like that I have more respect for the killers then ever before!Enter is the button for paragraphs btw

Nurse needs a huge nerf or a rework though, hillbilly might need some small nerfs because if you compare his skillcap to the nurse and his rewards for it, its too low of a skillcap and reward is too highRemove the only viable killers from highrank and you will enjoy the result

YES YES YEEEEESSSS!!!!!!!! This is a good solution...But we all know the dev's WONT...Put simply, they dont want to put people of playing their game!
So you state they don't want to put people out of playing their game yet isn't that what these bans are doing, putting people out from playing their game?
My PSN friend plays Survivor & RAGE QUITS if he is 1st down, tunnelled, or camped, 6x in a row he quited once... NO BAN & never has been. He says it's his way off balancing his games as he feels trials are to time consuming with slow-up nerf's.
Yeah well that's going to change in the very near future because BHVR is working with both Microsoft and Sony on implementing ban systems. Also just because they don't currently ban on consoles doesn't mean they don't have that wealth of data already.
So all those that've been toxic, hacking, rage quitting etc they've already got all the proof they need to ban but it also gives them data on who to watch now.
Well you can derank on PC by DCing too and nothing happens.
Is that microsoft/sonys fault too?
The recent ban wave would say otherwise and given the recent spam of complaint threads would confirm your wrong as well. As far as Microsoft/Sony technically yes it's their fault since they won't ban and want full control as usual.
I dont know about those guys on the forum, I dont know what they actually have done.
But I know a certain fogstreamer that deranks regularly by DCing in order to hover between certain ranks and apparently that is still fine -
Just slugg like we did in the past.
Of course survivors wont like thsi and it will get changed again.

One survivor uses a perk slots, all survivors within the SWF have its effect.
Seems balanced, right?

I can't disagree more!It's known that Survivors are OP and you want Nerf killers ?
