Uh-huh, when is the last time you saw the devs throw in or buff anything for killers to the point it changes the game?
They literally break this game consistently with survivor perks. Here recently as well. Several times since October this game has been spiraling out of control for killers.
It's just getting harder and harder to want to play killer.
Survivors already can heal for free. Oh now let's give them a massively buffed perk where they can wiggle free over and over too.
You don't see this crap happening for killers. If anything they just get nerfed.

Patch 5.5.0 with the release of the update to "Dead Man's Switch", a teachable killer perk from "The Deathslinger". Like I just know you're not trying to argue killer's get nothing but nerfs when we got that in the mid-chapter.

I'd disagree on DMS/PR being strong on M1 Killers. If Survivors know how to counter PR, which they do, DMS won't activate and M1 Killers can't pressure gens enough to make DMS an actual threat

I'd like to make my wording clear, "arguable stronger than ruin/undying". I'm of the opinion that on basic M1 killers without mobility, PGTW/Corrupt is the generally best combo because of it's consistency in allowing minimal downtime and forcing a 3gen. Ruin/Undying on them, because of inconsistent totem spawns, no movement ability to reach said totem spawns, and no movement ability to reach + defend gens you know need defending, just doesn't seem all that good. DMS/PR, while not as good as PGTW/Corrupt on them, is imho still better than Ruin/Undying on them.

in Devs love them some survivors now. Comment by GoodBoyKaru February 5, 2022

Yet killers font get that luxury. We get killer nerfs into the dirt. That is about it. Nothing game changing or perk releases that need quick nerfs.

I find it funny how this is mentioned and yet you literally got the new DMS-PR combo in the last patch, which is arguably stronger than ruin/undying particularly on high-mobility killers but also on less mobility focused ones. Boil Over absoluetly 300% needed the change because it was abuseable, not because it was strong. Unlike COH, which needed the change (and further changes) because of it's strength, Boil Over sat in the corner of "useless in 80% of scenarios, literally gamebreaking in 20".

Hell look at Billy's perks. They chopped them up so much nobody touches him. Nothing was fixed there.

I mean- you literally chose the killer with Tinkerer instead of, I don't know, Pyramid Head? Huntress? Wraith? Trapper? There's so many killers who have terrible perks and yet you decide to pick Billy, the guy with a niche perk (Lightborn), a good perk on M1 killers (Enduring) and a good perk on high-mobility killers (Tinkerer).

Also- in trying to make this an us vs them argument, you seem to have conveniently ignored the amount of useless survivor perks that also exist in the game.

His add-ons, yes absolutely. All they needed to really change was insta-saw, and yet they butchered his animations and slashed his add-ons into pieces. I still don't agree with that change. But cmon his perks are practically a godsend in terms of trying to do, say, adept Nemesis.

(Shockingly, still face more Billys than Pyramid Heads)

Once you have reached a Grade Threshold (that's what I'm calling it) you're stuck there, basically. A Grade Threshold is just, the bottom of each individual Grade (ie. Iri 1, Ash 4, etc), and inside the Grades are your pips. You can get as many pips as you like inside the Grade, but once you reach the next Grade Threshold you're now at that Grade instead and cannot return to any previous ones outside of Reset.

Once again, how do you imagine him telling that to his teammates while he is playing SOLOQ? Do you know what soloQ is? How is it abusable by solos?

Can the game distinguish between actual solo and dodging with cross off same region until I find my friends?

Like my guy you should know me by now, I am absolutely begging for solo buffs, but this wouldn't buff them in any meaningful way and only opens the door for potential abuse of the system. Which is why it was removed in the first place.

Is that really possible? How long would it take to find your teammates? This game is still pretty highly populated, surely just randomly getting matched with friends is unlikely...
Of course, randos can always form a party, but not once have I ever had that happen to me...

Two people playing in the same region around the same skill level with crossplay off? It's a lot more likely than you'd think.

And yes, people can, have, and will do this.

I said that's exactly why that's the case. Giving any advantage to solo that swf don't already have is abusable. I'm entirely for solo buffs but this would do nothing to make them stronger.

"Hey lads, I'm being chased over by the shack, carry on with the gens. Oh, he's hooked me, but he's proxy camping, carry on with the gens. He's gone now, come rescue me!"
See, as I said, SWF is already a problem. Why are they worried about them sharing perk info...

Because they don't know for sure the perks are in play and so must play reactively, or risk wasting time in their proactive playstyle. If you know for sure the killer has Devour, you'll be searching for totems ASAP. If you think but don't know, you won't be searching constantly or risk wasting time. Same with NOED.

I don't think it is, because the more survivors waste time with sabotaging killer, the more killer has to tunnel out survivors.
I like people try to save their teammate because it's literal free pressure.

One survivor prevents the first hook w/ sabo or flashlight.

One survivor needs saving.

COH is up so the first survivor is practically always healthy.

Two survivors are on seperate gens. That's about 60 seconds for the first chase if they're any good, so 2 gens go. If the first hook is successfully prevented you can easily get in another 1-2 gens of progress.

Yeah definitely.
Do you have any tips for dealing with flashlight users outside of light born? I run franklin's already but when it's multiple survivors with clickies it's still hard.

If you're near a wall, then look at it head on (if you're at an angle, it's still very possible for saves to be gotten). Like literally perpendicular to the wall.

If you're in the open, slug the survivor but bait picking them up- Trapper, Hag, and Demo do this wonderfully- to bring the Clicky Squad™ out of hiding and then chase them, forcing even more survivors off of objectives and buying you more time.

If two survivors are doing the fun little locker stray making it impossible to do anything, then honestly I'd just chase someone else. There's still other members on the team who won't run to that area ASAP and soon enough wherever they're doing this will become a gen deadzone as you can hyperfixate on the one survivor that can be hooked until they eventually make a mistake, overextend past their safe point, and you get them. Because nobody will play perfectly, especially if you don't play into their hands.

in Survivors preventing hooks at 0 hooks Comment by GoodBoyKaru February 5, 2022

The killer's first hook is where they begin to create momentum, with the game suddenly going from 3 survivors on objectives to 1 (1 hooked, 1 chased, 1 saving). In the early game, the primary goal of the survivors is to prevent this momentum from beginning to gather for as long as possible, while still leaving some resources for the team later so the momentum swing is less severe.

Preventing that first hook for as long as possible makes complete logical sense for a team intending to win. Just like hardcore tunneling 1 survivor ASAP makes complete logical sense for a killer intending to win.

Tragically the other side suffers, but that's just how the game is- whoever wants to win more and is willing to sacrifice the other side more is more likely to be the one to have fun + succeed.

"nice" for 69 bp

As for maining Nemesis, I can't really give any tips, but if Dead Man's Switch survives the next update then it could be worth investing in Deathslinger.

Priositise buying Bubba + Nemesis over the rest though, and save Artist for last. She's the most recent DLC so won't go on sale, or will go on less of a sale, than the rest when the Ringu chapter releases, so she'd be the original one to save the shards for. Doctor + Hag will be cheapest, alongside maybe Leg and Plague and Clown, but Clown onwards was when they began to increase the price of DLCs so idk.

Edit: Alternatively, if you have the funds to spare, just get the Killer Pack DLC + Bubba + Nemesis. Means you won't have to worry since the only licenced killer who's perks are worth a damn outside of Bubba is Mikey

A fully optimized matchmaking system could never be. The skill gap between low level players and high level players is too big and when you need to match 4 equals from one side with an equal from the other, unless you want unreasonable queue times would never be consistant. I am an ash rank survivor. Today I played about 30 matches and was only placed with roughly 3 red rank survivors the entire time. The killers however were red rank in EVERY match. I did about 70% of all gen progression in those matches and died on first or second hook I'd say about a dozen or more times with ZERO escapes.

well considering youve been gone for 2 years cant blame you for not knowing but ranks mean nothing now

This was a feature long ago and it worked perfectly fine. I just had a game as a level 1 cenobite with 1 perk equipped and still get matched with Red ranks, so matchmaking is already all sorts of wrong to begin with.

I dunno why I can send pictures but here- kitty

As confirmed by @MandyTalk in some other threads pictures will be enabled in EU daytime hours, aka when she works. When she gets off work the pictures will be disabled again. This is to ensure, I believe, that the max amount of attention is available (as other mods are volunteers, whereas it's Mandy's job) to ensure that the second any more pops up it's dealt with.

Currently, the forums hoster (Vanilla) doesn't have any options to grant image privileges after certain conditions are met, so this is a temporary fix until a more permanent one can be worked out with Vanilla.

The page itself about Twitch shirts says it’s not by application but by them scouting out streamers themselves that are applicable. And to be applicable, you MUST be an Affiliate or Partner. Even Affiliate requires at least 50 followers. Partner is the step up from Affiliate. If you’re not eligible, you aren’t being considered.

I'm well aware, and I'm telling you that the requirements for Affiliate are a minimum of 3 average concurrent viewers and 50 followers. 20 concurrent viewers would therefore be more than sufficient.

You need to be scouted by someone at BHVR themselves. Streaming the game for years and putting money into it doesn't mean anything if your streams aren't popular enough.
