As always I am happy to see my boy Mikey keeping his spot in the top 10. Stay strong fellow stalky boys.
-
It needs to stay as a permanent option. Having the opportunity to play games where you don't see the same old meta constantly is heaven.
-
It would have to be adult Andy if we did get him.
-
Honestly it should be a basic game option.

I respectfully disagree. Freddy at least has a power to play with, while myers just kinda exists with a insta down that is kinda weak due to him heing the only killer in the game who can actually run out of his power mid game. Take away the tombstone peices and Myers pickrate will plummet.
This isnt even remotely up for debate. Freddy is in a much stronger position then Myers, so Myers should get help first.People don't play killers primarily for strength. They play them for fun. If strength was the predominant deciding factor in killer popularity then the likes of Artist, Hag, Twins, Trickster etc wouldn't be sitting at the bottom end of the pick rates.
Michael is fun to play. You can do interesting things with him. He is versatile with builds and play styles. You have the jump scare builds with the mirror add ons. Vault master Myers. Tombstone Myers. Scream for Myers etc. It's never boring playing him.
Freddy on the other hand has nothing going for him. Not only is his power weak, it's boring as hell. His add ons suck. There's nothing interesting you can do with him. Oh he can teleport to incompleted gens. Why would anyone pick him when there's many other vastly superior teleporting killers. He can put down blood pools. They suck and are out classed by multiple other anti loop killers. Give me a reason why anyone would choose to play Freddy other than they manage to somehow derive enjoyment from him. But most people don't. That's why barely anyone plays him.
He doesn't even feel like Freddy Krueger. Michael may need buffs but his power captures the feel of his character. You can even do builds that reflect the different flavours of Myers from the various Halloween movies. You can go perma tier 3 with a pallet eating build for the aggressive kind of Myers like in Halloween 2018 or Kills. You can do they sly stalk and surprise attack Michael like in the original or H20 with the mirror builds etc. There's multiple YouTube series out there of people doing stuff like that with him. Especially with the jump scare builds.
Sadly Freddy doesn't have anything like that. Numbers talk. Many strong killers are not even scraping the top 20 let alone the top 10 when it comes to pick rates. But Michael is. Has been since 2016. That's staying power. Not because of one add on. But because he's fun. If people are not having fun with a killer then they're not going to play them regardless of how strong they are. That's why several strong killers don't get played much.
And you're trying to tell me it's not up for debate. Consider yourself debated 😉

I saw lots of excitement in the stream chat for a Michael and Ghostface team up, and then they tell us its just five original killers…..and the mood dropped sharply.

OH, Freddy needs help badly, but not before Myers. Not by a long shot
Freddy's pick rate is abysmally low. And for good reason. That's how bad of a state he's in. Whereas Michael is one of the top 10 most played killers. Michael needs buffs, but he's not remotely in as much of a bad spot as Freddy.
Not by a long shot.

Freddy and Myers reworks both - and both got kinda acknowledged by the devs in the Reddit Q&As i think so even if not directly mentioned I would expect them to be featured in the next year in the midchapters

i still think the license being in DbD is important and Freddy still has fans - even when they acknowledge that the power is lacking..
I don't think Mikey needs as as big of a change as Freddy. In my opinion Freddy needs a rework from the ground up.
Whereas Michael just needs some buffs to his existing kit.
-
Awww and one of the wholesome survivors was a Dweet. That warms my heart.
-
Mikey Myers is my main.
Most versatile killer when it comes to builds and play styles. He never gets boring for me.

Pain res? Been touched how many times and it's been out for much less time
DS has been through about four changes now.
-
I've never seen a perk jerked around with so much as DS.
-
I hope the triple blood event is still happening.

Scott Jund just made a video saying its worse for him, too.
-
Its really bad that they have let this go on for what will probably be at least 2 weeks before a patch fix is released.
-
Terrible idea.
Anonymous mode has far more pros than cons and is one of the best things they've added to the game.

The vast majority of pub matches is tilted in the killer's favor
Given the general quality of solo queue team mates, I agree with that.

R.I.P.
Condolences to her family.
-
Myers is not a contender for the worst killer in the game. He's not even bottom three.
-
I mean he's not wrong to be confused. Why would you kill switch one problematic map and just reduce the weight of another problematic map.
-
Potential Energy should be kill switched too. Its just as problematic if not more so as its broken bugged on any map.
-
Let's wait and see how they perform after the 10 second Victor recall is fixed
-
-
They have to be releasing something this week. They can't let people go on putting up with it.

I'm PS5 and experiencing it. I got thrown into a pig pen earlier and couldn't get out for awhile lol every time I tried it kept throwing me back

I'm on PS5 and have had rubber banding in every single game since the update. Sometimes it's only once and sometimes it's 5-10 times in one match. It really sucks.
I'm sorry to hear that guys. I must be lucking out. I've not had one rubber banding issue yet.
-
It must be afflicting PC players more because I am on PS5 and have not experienced any rubber banding. Its funny its usually the other way around when this stuff happens. Console usually gets it worse.
-
That's my standard Dweet build.

Yes, this has been complained about quite a number of times already. It is being fixed.
I didn't know it was being fixed. That's good to hear.

-
I know its early days as the update is not even a week old, but since the DS change I also have noticed a significant decrease in tunneling, too.
-
That's rhetorical question right. There's nothing you can do.
-
Unless you're on Xbox you can use anonymous mode.

That's actually a bug, hopeful of a fix in an upcoming hotfix
Also if Victor is not triggering the antifacecamp feature that might also be a bug, as I think he's supposed to.
That's a relief to hear.
-
I remember. I was playing Laurie (huge Halloween fan so the Halloween DLC is the first thing I bought on Dbd). It was against a Trapper. I think I stepped in every trap he laid down lol. Yet I ended up getting the hatch.
I was lucky. I was playing with two friends who were Dbd veterans. So they helped me a lot in my early days. If they were not there I would have probably run away from the hatch. Scary black hole in the floor making noises!!!!!
-
This is great news. And to think they probably could have done these changes two years ago instead of trying to reinvent them into that PTB mess.
-
Oh great. So its still the tiny dead zone it was on the PTB.
-
Skull Merchant and Pinhead for me.
SM for obvious reasons. Pinhead because I hate the chains. Having to remove four or five gens from my body in a chase. The box can be so annoying too especially in solo queue when everyone thinks someone else is going to go for it and then nobody does and you get the chain hunt.
-
Twins, Hag, Artist, Singularity, Freddy.

I just got a funny idea. How about rewarding the oldest members of this forum for their loyalty to the game?
People like @Dwight_Fairfield and @Pulsar really deserve it for their continued support. A small funny charm would be a heartwarming treat.
That's really kind of you to say. I appreciate it.
But I am of the same opinion as Pulsar. I am not worthy of it. I haven't done anything special. There's far more deserving loyal players out there who create great content all the time for the game.
Thank you again though.
-
I will not be happy if Haddonfield goes live as that tiny dead zone it was on the PTB.
-
About 8 to 9 months ago. I used to play practically every day. Now I play maybe three days a week. Four at a push. Most times it's only for a couple of hours at most.

Rework - Freddy. His power needs a complete overhaul from the ground up. It's boring, weak, and doesn't even capture the feel of the character. This is reflected by his abysmally low pick rate. An icon like Freddy should be fun to play. But he's got nothing going for him. We know this because the players have been saying it for years. Please listen to the community on this.
Buff - Michael. His power does capture the feel of his character. It just needs some buffs to put him into a more comfortable spot. He's very fun to play which is why he's always had a high pick rate regardless of how many killers have been added over the years, he's always kept himself in the top ten played killers. So don't mess my boy up, Bhvr. Again please listen to the community and give him what he needs without destroying his character.
No offense meant but after the Twins rework you should run any Ideas you have by the player base instead of spending years on changes that you end up needing to scrap five minutes after the PTB.
-
A great example of fun and strength not going hand in hand.
-
Check your internet connection. That's usually what causes it.
-
Knight can wait his turn. There's killers who are far more deserving of some attention.
-
That 25% faster stalk is so nice. When ever they get around to updating Mikey they need to make this base kit.
-
I am on PS5 and I've not suffered any of these issues. Very sorry this is happening to you. I can't imagine what could be causing it. You've already tried everything I would have suggested you try to fix it.
-
Very concerning there was no mention of Haddonfield. They cannot let it go live as that tiny dead zone.
-
I can handle killers bringing all the slowdown and playing ruthless. What gets on my nerves is useless team mates.
I played several solo queue games yesterday and out of about seven to eight games I think I had one match where my team mates were decent.
When I say decent I mean they did gens, they went for hook saves etc. I don't expect my team mates to be amazing loopers or anything. Just be doing something when the killer isn't on you.
-
Complete reworks from the ground up? Freddy and Skull Merchant.
