seems like the only solution is to remove SWF since it ruins killers AND solos.
why are we catering to 10% of the game population?

I just don't see how you can remove swf when friends can still communicate through other devices.

Tell me about lad, they're pretty weak so nobody's looking to play them. Trickster may likely share the same fate unfortunately, he's actually weaker then they are.
Side note besides Trickster I'm getting alot of Spirits, not sure why though, what about yourself?

Most of my matches have been trickster which of course is because he's new and a lot of people are trying him out. Before the update I was going against a lot of trappers and huntresses.

Just had a tunneling Meyers 2 matches ago. Scared the crap out of me twice, which is a nice change from typical killers.

yeah it be like that with stealthy killers. 😂

Went up against a Michael two days ago, now with the chapter still being fresh you'll likely see alot of Trickster for afew days, but around day 4 or 5 he will gradually be played less and less, and other killers will be more frequent
Besides Twins, poor Twins:(

seems like no one plays twins anymore because it's been longer that I've went against her than Michael.

Key nerf, I’ve played around 6-7 games of killer tonight and 3 of them had key escapes.
Including one where I got 4 stacks of remember me, 4 stacks of no way out; and then the game gives an RNG key to a 3 man SWF all jump out the hatch at 1 gen left. Amazing.

it sucks when you play so well and all of a sudden the survivors just disappear like that.

I feel like a broken record because ive said this before but im just gonna say the DS nerf was bad because the perk was being treated like a mechanic by both the devs and players, what I mean by this is because of how popular DS was an obsession was virtually guaranteed and so killers where faced with a scenario where tunnelling was then discouraged.
If the use of the perk goes down less games have obsessions more killers have free reign to tunnel and you can see where im going, if the absence of a perk on one of the 4 survivors makes the game less fun maybe some of the features of the perk should be base...…. like making it so there's an obsession every game.
The reason there was so much appeal to the DS nerf to some people was because how with lockers it can be abused (there's no reason for this to not be changed), with unbreakable it actually makes you invincible and because you don't need someone to pick you up so it also denied the killer all the pressure from the hit anyway and its frustrating to be hit by because you could genuinely not be tunnelling but get punished. On another note I believe anyone saying it gives you free gen progress is just bad at the game or jumping a bandwagon that excuse is dumb imo you can slug and if they where really on an unsafe gen for so long then their DS would be running low, slugging is completely a viable and fair way to play the game I don't care what anyone meghead says this is true.
Honestly I would have nerfed the survivor role much more but differently but in a way that would have been much better for the game in my opinion by targeting broken the most broken perks and here's my hot takes on this
Dead hard-Should stun the survivor if the killer doesn't swing and an attack is not dodged so you cant just dead hard to a pallet and drop it (there's a compendium challenge that requires you to dodge attacks so the game must have some way to tell if its used for distance)
Unbreakable-Shouldn't let you pick yourself up
Soul guard-Shouldn't let you pick yourself up
Iron will-Should have a prerequisite look at lucky break and other weak perks trying to fulfil a similar role
Honestly the game is playable without DS and people acting like its not are overreacting but i don't think the nerf was good for the game like everyone is saying. I think this is because killer is the weaker role (of course this is only if both sides are playing their roles effectively) people seem to be happy with any nerfs to the survivor role because they don't trust behaviour to make the right nerfs while at the same time there are so many BS survivor perks that will never get touched, Dead hard was last changed according to the dead by daylights wiki during patch 2.0.0 (not relating to bugs the perk has had related to it, the sky hard) and unbreakable has never actually been nerfed to my knowledge.
Honestly the whole reason im rambling in this post is i just see so much community outrage over a perk that's really a non issue and its not even nerfed in a way which resolves the few issues i see in it (lockers+unbreakable combo) while broken perks are just ignored.

if unbreakable shouldn't allow you to pick yourself up, than you may as well just delete it. Same with soul guard.

No, you may not. Smh, there'll always be that one entitled survivor main wanting to run toxic builds just to bully the killer. It's a shame really.
Yea, you can use it lol you don't need to ask someone if you can play the game the way you want to, heck, you paid for it.

I mean I wouldn't consider it toxic now because it's now perfectly balanced.

The red flags were there.
an absurdly high ammo count.
An objectively strong hex.
A perk that encourages the use of a basic attack after carrying/hooking someone.
A perk that’s purpose is to give the killer more time during endgame.

that endgame perk is useless because it's just 10 seconds.

this actually happened to me a few times on xbox recently, but it didn't give me a dc penalty which is weird.

I have only played against him once and it was an easy escape, he only got one kill. I need to play against him more to really understand because he's new.

If the survivors don't know a killer has BBQ by the endgame, they are stupid. Sorry to break it to you, but if the killer hooks somebody and comes to your exact position, it's obvious. You must be playing in low MMR if you think the survivors won't be able to counter it.
Moving on.. never once did I imply that DS was skill-based lol. A killer hunting down a survivor with BBQ only to win the chase is different from a survivor not being tunneled, losing the chase and punishing the killer for it with an undeserved DS. Comparing the two makes no sense since one was deserved and one wasn't.
I also find it funny that you think DS was countering BBQ when in actuality it was just giving an unfair escape considering the killer wasn't tunneling, hence why DS is being nerfed in the first place. He deserved those kills but instead got punished for it, that isn't "countering". I don't understand your point here.

to be fair though he still would've escaped under the new DS but yeah the perk needed a change very badly.

in Are you kidding me? Comment by Nathan13 March 29, 2021

DS really should just deactivate at endgame.

I don't really care about NOED, I want rancor fixed because I have died many times to doing my objective and not being able to hide. I remember one match where I kept trying to get people to do the last gen so I could hide, and it was so unfun because I knew no matter what I did the spirit would phase, down, and mori me because of her perk. At least with noed it's just doing bones, but rancor takes your primary objective and punishes you or one of your teammates for it.

I rarely see rancor in my games and I have yet to experience losing like that.
