I play both sides. However, I hate playing Killer. It is not fun for me. I play it to do dailies now, basically.

And yet, despite being 80/20 Survivor favored most of my arguments are pro-Killer.

in How many of you play both sides? Comment by EvanSnowWolf April 2, 2021

Being able to bring a powerful Hex for free would not be healthy.
Hex perks are high risk high reward. An extra, "free" perk slot like this exclusively for a Hex perk removes much of the risk involved in bringing a Hex perk as, part of the risk is in the fact that if it gets cleansed you're out of a perk for the rest of the match which is a pretty big deal with only 4 base slots.
This balancing around SWF idea isn't healthy as it would completely crush poor solo queue players who, contrary to popular belief, matter.
If a 5the perk slot was added on either side it would need to be on both and even then I can't see that ever happening as it could cause too many issues.

Ah yes. The old "high risk, high reward" myth. Told around the campfire like Bigfoot.

No hex matters if it gets blown up in 30 seconds.

And very few hex perks are "powerful" enough to deserve it. Maybe NOED, Devour, and Ruin, and NOED only applies to endgame and Devour does nothing until activated with tokens.

Some people tunnel and camp specifically to draw out this angry reaction.

I second this. It needs to be removed because my spacebar has had enough.

We joke about this, but I have actually had to replace a spacebar over it.

Sorry I was listening to Toy Soldiers by Martika and reading world events on Twitter.

To be fair, that song is amazing. You are excused.

Because the issue with censorship is that it is used to create and maintain dictatorships but that has nothing to do with private organisations, they are not obligated to let you say or do what you want. For example, if you visit me in my house and you do/say something I don't like I can throw you out for that and that doesn't mean you are being censored because you are still able to say/do this things in your own home, I'm just enforcing my house rules. It's the same when a company enforces certain rules. You are still free to avoid the company and you free to create your own company with your own rules.

I fundamentally disagree with the idea that "the privacy of your own home", which is a single dwelling, is conflatable with a multi-million user publicly traded entity.

Of course you stopped reading right there. You're part of the problem.

I can't help but notice you ignored the man's math.

I've put about 5k hrs into the game at this point and I've had fun up until I felt like I had to play because this rift is just so unfun mix that with unfun challenges and having to grind every perk for every survivor I wanna play with and every killer I wanna play with it's just become so unfun after skipping a few weeks and getting 10 days behind and playing Minecraft I've realized just how unfun this game has become the only reason I play at this point is because I have great memories playing this game and I hope one day it'll get better thank that is all

My friends and I have been playing for only four months. How do you think WE feel?

Some of you people have every Killer and Survivor at level 50. Some of you have them at level 50 AND Prestige 3.

Most of my Killers are level 15 just to get the 4th perk slot open.

It's a private platform, not a governmental (or similar) organization. Don't make a bigger deal out of this than it needs to be.

Why do people always act like silencing language never "counts" unless the government is doing it?

We are now seeing an expos of low skill survivors that were being carried by a crutch perk.
Dead by daylight is a game of either stealth evading the killer or looping the killer effectively. If you are good at those 2 things and play the game as it was meant to be played, then you don't need to use Ds in the manner it was used.
Most of the survivors complaining now arent very skilful and would get off on the fact that the killer couldn't keep track of how long ago they downed them and they got a free getaway and wasted The Killers time leading to a win they didn't really deserve.

Exactly. I am bad at looping. So I use stealth. If I get seen my objective is to try to lose a Killer in a tile and use my Fixated perk to exit away without scratch marks.

Why are people struggling to get what I'm saying here lol I swear people are just reading the part where I say "DS buff" and immediately disagree with everything just because it's DS.
DS and BT are the only proper anti-tunnelling perks in the game. If you don't want to rely on your teammates then DS is your only option.
What if it's a killer chasing a rank 10 survivor who doesn't last a minute in chase? Is it fair that they got a perk to help with tunnelling only to see that it can be easily avoided by the killer who just camps their slugged body.
If I choose to play Spirit later and tunnel one survivor to death every game, you better believe DS won't stop them from dying. If they aren't great at looping then believe they will be dead before 3 gens have been completed.

" Is it fair that they got a perk to help with tunnelling only to see that it can be easily avoided by the killer who just camps their slugged body?"

Yes. For the reason I mentioned.

"Why? Based on what criteria and reasoning?"
Based on the fact that you're playing with actual human beings and shouldn't be going out of your way to make them deliberately miserable? How is that a difficult concept for you to understand? Other than the perk, do you have any empathy at all?
You can literally remove/disable/hinder everything you listed - you even mentioned a perk that does some of it yourself. I'm just saying an anti-tunnel perk should maybe actually stop you from being tunnelled, which I don't belive the current DS does. I think it needs a longer stun duration and maybe two activations.
"BHVR makes the rules of the game. No player should be at the mercy of the other side to dictate how they can play."
Really? You don't think BHVR has made any changes based on player feedback? Do you remember the changes to Freddy on launch? Are you new? They clearly do and have made changes based on player complaints. DS is one of them. I just feel it was slightly over nerfed.
As I've said multiple times now, we clearly don't see eye to eye. Not only do our views on gameplay vary, but also our views on how we treat people. Neither of us are gaining anything from interacting so please just stop replying to me.

And again, tunnelling is not directly making someone miserable. It is a Killer getting two hook states which is literally one of the things they are scored on for their Emblems. This is in no way comparable to things designed purely to create misery, like racial slurs in endgame chat or holding the game hostage.

It has nothing to do with empathy. It is not only allowable, it is an encouraged part of gameplay by virtue of how the game is designed. I don't like it when gens fly, by your logic I could argue that Survivors doing gens have no empathy because doing so makes me miserable.

BHVR can change the rules, if they want. They control the game code. But players are going to play with how it is written now. If you want to write a sternly worded letter to Almo, be my guest.

The only thing I would change about Decisive Strike is remove the timer entirely. If a Survivor wants to remove themselves from the game for over 60 seconds, that's a choice they can make themselves. But trying to make this about "sportsmanship" is a faulty form of logic. Sportsmanship is for baseball, not a game where Killers are literally paid in-game currency to do the thing you are upset about.
