Mikey is one killer you rarely see complaints about from either side. Genuinely a fun killer to play as and against.
-
Just say gg. Kill them with kindness. They are looking to provoke you. Don't give them the reaction they want.
-
The Game map. Helped a lot having the killer above or below me most of the match.
-
A hatchet should never ever insta down a healthy survivor. Its a ridiculous add on.
-
I find him boring and weak on both sides.
-
As a Myers main it looks like a fun playground, especially with scratched mirror.
For my Dweet it looks like a cool spooky map with some actual decent pallets and loops.
-
That is fantastic. What a difference a slight buff can make. Hopefully the first of many for Clown. He needs it.
-
100% get Myers. Great perks, very versatile killer with playstyles and builds, and is just all around fun.
-
The Game map did it for me having the killer either directly above or below me a lot.
-
One stalky boi is great.
-
Show me the others surviving being shot, stabbed, set on fire, run over by a car etc then they can be a match for Daddy Myers.

Nice they made my hair bow build useless. Well done devs.
Its still working the same as before.
-
Since I own Kate I didn't mind. I'll walk on hot coals to get Dweet's lore.
But I agree it should not be walled behind a pay for character challenge.

I've been to the PTB, and from the two games where I used the Hair Bow (and J. Myers memorial), it seems to be working just fine like before. He keeps part of his charge after his EW3, and it's not a fluke either. It still takes the same amount of time to get back into EW3 (ie about 3.7 secs in this case with the Memorial)
Well there you go. So they are still working the same as before. Good news.
Thank you. Appreciate that ☺

If this change is already in PTB, can someone confirm how this works?
Yeah someone would be better off doing that instead of waiting for an official answer.
-
Again someone should test it on the PTB for clarification.

The Shape: Fixed an issue that caused the Shape's Evil Within extending add-ons to only increase the required stalking amount on the first activation of Evil Within III.
Why did you need to nerf him.
Its not gone unnoticed. They claim its a bug fix.
-
Daddy Myers dethroned?
Not in this life time!
-
Has anyone actually tested these add ons on the PTB yet?
-
@thesuicidefox said:
I'm confused.
Does this fix make it so that these add-ons only work for the first EW3 or does it now work for every EW3?
That's what I want to know.

No. It was never meant to be that way to begin with, so there's not going to be anything to compensate for it. He's performing perfectly fine as is.
Just curious when you say he's performing perfectly fine as is (which I agree he's in a decent spot), is that based on stats? Like in how he's performing with kill rates in red ranks?
-
@Acromio said:
As if he wasn't bad enough, lol.
He's not bad at all. Nothing has changed either. Its a bug fix.

I'm 18 and knew what Silent Hill was and even knew about Pyramid Head.
Well that settles it, I'm convinced. If you know about it then every teen out there must, too 😉

@ThisGuuy83 said:
It was iconic for it's time, and for it's fanbase. But ask any 15yr old what silent Hill is, and 90% won't have a clue. Ask them who Dracula, Wolfman, Frankenstein, alien, pennywise, Jason, etc. and they know who that is. They put way too much hype behind it, for who it was. I think that's why a lot of people were disappointed as I was too. I didn't expect Jason(nor do I want him here), buy I expected more than pyramid head. Not trying to knock the chapter, but it is what it is.
This.

Alright, if arguments based on social patterns and xenophobia aren't the kind of thing that you acknowledge (typical of consumers of mainstream American media), how about some dollars and cents? I heard Americans love that kinda stuff.
The Silent Hill movie (not even the most popular of the franchise's products by far) grossed about $100 million worldwide, more than 10 out of the 11 Halloween movies released, save the most recent (2018) one which grossed like $250 million. (Box Office Mojo figures) If we include the revenues of the video games, it's not even comparable. Silent Hill is a much larger and more recognizable phenomena than any canonical slasher flicks.
I ask again, why isn't Silent Hill iconic or classic? Because you don't like it? Because it was made somewhere other than the United States? Because it isn't a cookie-cutter slasher?
P.S. Please explain what you mean by "factual". You really got me confused there with that vague use of the word "fact"
First of all I'm not American, I'm Irish.
Second, I'm not sure if you're being sarcastic asking that, or legitimately ignorant on it and want a real answer, but again I'll be nice and give you the benefit of the doubt. You can't measure iconic and classic status by dollars and cents. If we did then the likes of Michael Bay's Transformers movies are bigger more beloved iconic classics then the likes of The Godfather, The Silence of the Lambs, The Wizard of Oz, Jaws, E.T. and many other cinematic iconic greats.
Silent Hill isn't as iconic or a classic as the others because it never reached that status with the horror genre, only with the gamer community. Nothing to do with what I personally like. I don't like the Nightmare on Elm Street movies, but there is no denying their iconic status in the horror genre.

Sure, it would be nice to have Iconic Horror Killers from Mainstream media.
But DBD is a video game, so to have another crossover with another video game is something to be hyped about.
Because that opens up the possibility of things like Resident Evil with Nemesis, or The House of the Dead with The Chariot/Judgment, or even The Magician if they could make him work.
And I'm all for that.
Please don't misunderstand my disappointment in this reveal as my being against Silent Hill or any other horror video game licenses coming into Dbd. It was simply of how this chapter was promoted as being a big wig landmark in the horror genre that disappointed me because like most people we were thinking it was something big from the movie franchises that would fit that label. That's all.
I think Pyramid Head looks like fun so far, and the indoor elementary school map is creepy as hell (can't wait to do scratched mirror Myers on it).

You're not getting it are you?
Pyramid Head is an Iconic VIDEO GAME HORROR Villain. He isn't as Mainstream as Jason or Myers, sure, but he is still Iconic enough to be called an Iconic killer by the devs.
I'm getting it just fine, I just don't agree with it. For something to be considered iconic in a genre, in this case horror, it has to be just that; iconic to the mainstream of its genre. Not just a sub section of it, in this case the horror video game world. Had they said the new chapter is iconic in the video game horror genre, that would be a different story.
That's why most people were guessing the likes of Xenomorph, Pennywise, Jason etc. They're horror icons known across the genre.

I've seen all the movies. I'm not denying that they're classics, iconic, etc. If I thought that, I would have said "xyz isn't class, iconic, or landmark horror franchises". It doesn't seem like you're actually reading my posts. I'm saying that you weren't offering up any explanation as to why. Probably because, if you did, you would have to admit that Silent Hill fits the bill just as well as any of these other franchises, but the American exceptionalism that permeates the horror genre prevents creators from other countries from being acknowledged. Silent Hill, at the global level, is more easily recognized and respected as a unique and important contribution to the world of horror than many of the franchises you've listed.
I didn't think I needed to explain why they are. The reasons why doesn't change the end result that they are does it? So why do I need to explain something being factual, when we all already know its a fact?
Telling me Silent Hill is not as big and iconic as those aforementioned franchises just because of American exceptionalism doesn't change the end result does it. So I don't get why you're hung up on that.

The creator of Silent Hill, Hideo Kojima is a coveted Game Developer, not to mention that a lot of people (including myself) grew up with the Silent Hill franchise the same way people grew up with Halloween & Friday the 13th.
It's about as iconic as those movies, except in video game form
No offense but that's just empty words. You're just telling me something is a landmark and iconic without providing any proof. Can you even show me examples how Silent Hill is ingrained in Horror culture like Halloween and Friday the 13th is?

EXCUSE ME?
HOW CAN YOU NOT SAY SILENT HILL IS NOT CLASSIC OR ICONIC WHEN THEY'VE BEEN STAPLES OF THE HORROR GENRE FOR AGES?
Because they're not. But please feel free to explain how they have been staples in the horror genre. If you can provide any proof to go with it then even better.

You've provided no reasoning as to why any of those characters/franchises are iconic, landmarks, etc. etc. You're just telling me they are? I'd love some reality if you have some to spare! :) Are they that way just because you like them? I like some of them too! Especially T.C.M. and SAW. What makes them different than Silent Hill? Is it because Silent Hill isn't an American creation and therefore can't enter into that hallowed realm of horror canon? Why isn't Silent Hill, which is at least as remarkable and popular as these other franchises, a classic or iconic in your eyes?
You really need an explanation as to why the likes of Myers, Freddy, Leatherface etc are classics, or iconic, or landmarks, or in some cases all three in the horror genre? Ok I'm going to give you the benefit of the doubt and assume you're legitimately ignorant about them, and give you an explanation.
We'll take the most important one, and my personal favorite, Michael Myers of the Halloween franchise; https://www.indiewire.com/2018/10/halloween-movie-1978-jamie-lee-curtis-john-carpenter-1202012889/

I'll have what you're having man. lol. Silent Hill is an incredibly popular multi-media franchise, and the only reason I would guess that you don't perceive it in the same league as the other ones you listed is because you are basing your judgement based on whichever movies were played the most on cable tv growing up.
I'm having some reality. Help yourself. Plenty to go around 😉
Being popular does not equate to being classic, iconic, or any way notable in the horror franchise. Nothing to do with what played on cable TV the most.
Halloween, Nightmare on Elm Street, Saw, Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Stranger Things......any of those could be called either classic, iconic, landmarks, or in some cases all three in the horror genre.
Silent Hill cannot. Not by any stretch of the imagination.
-
I mean if this had not been promoted as some iconic horror classic I wouldn't be as disappointed. I was expecting something of Alien/Jason/Pennywise stature. Silent Hill is not classic, iconic, or in any way a landmark in the horror genre.
But the map looks cool and the killer looks like fun.
-
In the form of a Dweet. I knew it 😇
-
Its gotten to the point where it happens so often that when I see its a Bubba I expect insidious camping, and usually I get it.
Its sad so many Bubba players have chosen this play style.
-
The calm before the storm 😉
-
No, that impresses me.
-
I've been lucky lately. I got about seven of them on my Dweet's bloodweb in the past week.
-
Myers is an excellent killer. Definitely high mid tier. He has tremendous snowball potential, and unlike Ghostface he is not robbed of his stalking power simply by staring at him or loses his stalk progress if he hits a survivor.
He's one of the most versatile killers when it comes to builds. I still see people coming up with new fun builds for him.

From what I’ve seen I have to go with Umbra, but she does get a lot of potatoes. Even from her mouth she said that bad survivors can make any killer player look good.
But a majority of the playerbase are not hardcore players, they’re just casual.
Yeah I watch Umbra and she is amazing. But she herself has said she doesn't mind facing swf groups because the majority of the ones she gets are really bad.
Her own words.

I want to say Otz, but the way he talks annoys the everliving hell out of me so I haven't watched much of his stuff.
What's wrong with the way he talks?

Zubatlel, Otz, Umbra, and Monto are my favorites when it comes to killer players.
-
Myers for sure.
-
I had three last night.
-
I got the same thing just now. Really nice surprise.

Its a ridiculous add on. A hatchet should never ever insta down a healthy survivor.
-
My two mains. I'm pleased.
-
Get rid of them. They are ridiculous. Hatchets should never insta down a healthy survivor.
Some of the best Huntress players I've seen wouldn't be caught dead using them.
