I don't even understand a Smurf for DBD...especially when Derankers/ Derank Squads are a thing
-
Only when several Toolboxes are brought in and I don't have Franklin's on that Killer and/or don't want to switch to a Killer that has Franklin's. Sometimes jus not in the mood for that. *slow shrug*
-
Oh this should totally be a rule. coughs

I don't mind them so much as even a low level survivor can be used to escape.
The killers are "open the gates" where no matter what you do or how immersed you are, you will be found and hooked the instant the gates are powered and only unhooked once both are open.
It's not about how tough it is....its about screwing over the other Survivors because you lack any real Perks/Builds to either better extend being chased, safe unhooks in the event of Killers camping others (doubly so for the Unhook 3 Survivors as X Survivor Daily) or ways to punish tunneling Killers. It's just unnecessarily obtuse imo
-
They bloody better....Ghost Face is surprisingly one of my favorite Killers story wise....I wasn't expecting to love his story/lore and the flavor text...but whomever wrote that up def hooked( ~_^ ) me in
-
I just wish we'd at LEAST get Dailies up to a 30k minimum reward....those lower end ones feel awful...
Id also wish they'd eliminate the "Rescue/Escape as X Survivor" or only have em for Survivors you've leveled up...hate rerolling a Daily I don't want and getting one for a Survivor that's only level 1.
-
I just don't want to see challenges that require crap like:
"do X Flashlight Saves in a single match"
"Escape the Basement Hook as the last Survivor alive"
Or whatever else type of challenge that practically never happens or extensively sets a match up for failure to achieve.

Why all these entitled killer players making threads about how they "deserved" a 4k and the game needs to be changed because they didn't get it?
Try again sweetheart 💀💜 May want to read again.. *blows kiss*
I love when people come in and misconstrue an entire topic :). Nowhere did I say I was ENTITLED to a 4K, nowhere did I say anything other than what happened in this match...but oh yes asking for keys to be more easily seen is SUCH an entitled request...or if Keys are to be easily hidden...read where I said I was on a Corn map (psst I stated it clear enough, which makes spotting any key in a hand impossible) to have Hatch Close be jus that....

Yeah, that's definitely long these days.
Devs stated they want 8 on average, so yeah, more than 3 times what they aim for. 😋
Ok, glad to hear I wasn't imagining that it felt like a damn war xD
-
@Boss said:
So how long was the match?
Jus about 30mins. Was a LOT of back n forth, half chases, baits and such. Dunno what is considered long in general, but 30mins has def been the longest for me, matches usually last 10-20mins all things depending.

@Mochan said:
I don't think hatches need any further nerfing. At least keys don't need to be nerfed in that way. I can agree that keys can be annoying as killer, but it sounded like a great match and you shouldn't feel bad about the Meg escaping.
Keys might be nerfed in other ways but the way it was used in this match was okay in my book.
Keys aren't even guaranteed to be used, so personally I don't think they're in a bad spot. It is very hard to use a key.
Im not too bothered by it, jus not seeing it at all is what mostly got me xP Like it went "Ohh...."
-
Oopsies, I did a whoopsies. ;]
-
I absolutely love em...gives her some fun personality. The "WHAAAAAAAHHH" and "GAHHHAAAAAHHH" when getting hit is jus 👌
-
Wow....jus gone. So....this is pretty annoying and dangerous if the game can just POOF away cosmetics....what about ones we purchased....those at risk too?

Has to be billy, LF, GF, Myers, or huntress/clown with add ons.
True true! I guess my immediate thought was Huntress of Clown because of missed insta downs or something seem to be their MO for salt over other Killers.
xD
-
@TwistrBlitz said:
Who were they playing out of curiosity?
Huntress most likely...or maybe Clown?
-
I brought enough for all....cuz this is gonna be a fun thread to read over.
-
I run:
-Monitor & Abuse
-Thanatophobia
-Ruin/Dying Light
-Pop Goes the Weasel
-
Until Rank Reset, I have no desire to attempt Adept Killer Trophies...there's no joy in it when at higher Ranks/Skill levels I def need certain Perks. I can see myself maybe getting this as Spirit & Ghost Face as is...but so many others...agaisnt competent Survivors that aren't potatoes, or worse, agaisnt some/all coordinated teams? Bleh, no thanks...Ive done 4k games, kept Gens low, never camped etc..and the game's crappy Emblem System decides Ruthless with a pixel fart away from Merciless....
I so hate how inconsistent the requirements are between Survivor and Killer...
-
I'm wondering if you're that naive or just trying to be trolling with these threads aimed at Killers....
-
Pop Goes the Weasel was a Perk I already loved before it was balanced better. I tried to make it work before, but the short duration, distance to Gens could easily be impossible to get and each Rank having different %s on Gen regression...made it a hindrance...but the concept was always one I loved. Since it's rework/balance alongside Dying Light, it's fast become a great Perk.
-
DS is right where it needs to be...
-
Nah, I like it how it is...like an exposed weak/vulnerable spot. Think of it like how Assassins/Killers instinctively getting those killing/debilitating strikes without fail.

The idea of survivors able to hack, heal, control the infected or are infected themselves do not sound cool to you ?
And that's just a few ideas on top of my head.
That alone doesn't grab me because the spin-off Resident Evil games of the last 2 console generations were pretty crap. Operation Racoon City looked kinda cool...ended up being a socom with RE dressing and a boring, buggy mess....Umbrella Corps....,laughably bad.
The main Resident Evil games have done well and the REmakes for them,because they built off the success of the titles of the past, with a clesr cut & passionate team working on,it for MANY years. This looks passable on paper, but we know nothing about it except a teaser trailer. I personally don't see a reason to get hyped for it until actual gameplay and demos/final product is out to try.
-
I give it a solid Yesr before it limps on. I'm a die-hard Resident Evil fan, but unless there's a REALLY good hook to the gameplay and balance, I don't see this making a long-term success.

The majority of people say that Hag is extremely rare, I’ve seen as many good console nurses as I have Hag in general, we’ll have to agree to disagree I guess.
Would be nice if we could get an official word from BHVR, like a Monthly/Yearly look for these across the platforms the game is on. I recall them once while back posting numbers for something *shrugs*.
You have a good one Groot ^_^

Hag is played even less, does that make weak?
I have gone against far more Hags on Ps4 than Nurse will ever amount to. She's only surpassed by Michael Myers and Spirit for the Killers I go against the most. Are there Nurse players? Sure, not arguing that...but aside from probably Clown she is thee least used, let alone a skilled one and Ive been playing for 2 years
People are put off from playing her because of the frame rate and lack of the accuracy a Mouse can afford. We can keep going back and forth on this, but I already see we won't move from our positions.

They just aren’t facing a good nurse, she is still far more capable then any other killer, most console people just aren’t very good with her.
And I can count on one hand the amount of Nurses I have went up against in the entirety of me playing DBD, is indicative of a problem where hardly anyone is inclined to play as her...playing Green & Purple Ranks as Survivor you would still expect to face the occasional Nurse...but practically nobody is playing her....
-
Not a Survivor main, but I play enough. For me, Face Camping is the worst thing ever. Hooking and then just standing there....how boring and dumb

She'll still be the best killer in the game since she ignores all chase mechanics like walls/pallets and can hop floors without taking stairs
Not for console and especially not with the incoming nerfs, she has added handicaps. Spirit is by far outclassing her, along with Hillbilly, Hag, Michael and Ghost Face tending to be seen far more. Survivors can easily dodge and bait out Nurse and she lacks the ability to quick snap her Blinks to trick or trick hit Survivors....unless the Survivors are extreme potatos....on console, they should not be,losing to a Nurse
-
Yep, I had hopes to one day give her more serious practice to play...now I won't bother...esp with some of the bullying Survivors we tend to have and how the slightest mistake can cost so much...
Fatigue, nerfed blinks, slow movement speed, unable to snap-shot Blinks or turn,on a dime like PC players can....why, other than memes or messing around would I play her?
-
@Bravo0413 said:
Nothing is planned for spirit atm.... the doc, Michael and then the chainsaw killers are next..... also it would be bad for business if they devs were to change a character because the character is popular.... it's always better to build around that character.
Michael Myers is getting looked at? First I've heard of this....not sure if I want changes...I absolutely love and have loved Mikey's playstyle and kit for 2 years now.... Sources?

@HellCatJane said:
You are also in the lower ranks... DC'ing tends to happen a lot for stupid reasons... like "I think you are hacking " " or that hit was BS " "you couldn't of seen me" etc. Not that it doesn't happen in any rank, but I notice it way more in those ranks, myself.
Currently with Dedicated servers there are a rise of people that are "Dcing" that aren't even doing it intentionally, as well. So there's that.
I play on console, so there's that to consider. As far as Ranks go, it is prevalent everywhere and true it's probably more abundant in lower Ranks, but I still argue it doesn't change that DCing is a cultural thing within this community. Lot of YouTubers/Streamers do it as part of their personality and drama and I wonder if viewers curious of the game...jus end up emulating that. Not to mention yes, the game is unstable and errors do happen, I don't deny or argue that.
Im jus specifically pointing towards the ones that ARE intentionally DCing, which in my past couple weeks, has only happened when a match/chase was in my favor. DCing unintentionally (unless there's a specifics bug we don't know that triggers this) would happen throughout a match and not solely the person I downed/hooked.
-
@Bravo0413 said:
On ps4 sometimes players just get randomly disconnected and say "no network connection" when clearly you're still have network connection..... it's quite stupid.... so dont take all disconnects as "rage quits"
I have never as Survivor or Killer been disconnected mid match the last two months. Unless BHVR announces that there is a specific Disconnect issues when I smack someone down for their second or third Hook, or Franklin's their items (evident by them trying to loop back to said item & I down em) I am and will continue to treat these as they seem.
The multiple times as Ghost Face & Scratch Mirror Myers, I mindgame em via stealth when they've been playing all match beforehand jus fine...how else can I take it? None of the DCs happen at the beginning of the match, or randomly while I'm after someone else. Trust me, unless there's something BHVR isn't telling us...these all happen when I "Got'em". Id love to give people the benefit of the doubt...but this community's reputation precedes it for me.
EDIT: Also I have yet to have a Survivor DC when I'm losing or doing poorly...evident by my 4 failed attempts at Evil Incarnate or when messing around as Leatherface on a bad map....funny how the DCs consistently have happened the past week ONLY when a match goes in my favor.
-
@hiC said:
DCs are way less of an issue at red ranks. All the sweaty nerds care about the pips (including me!!). Anyways, it was just supposed to be a fun question, not a solution to the overall DC problem. Which, by the way, I think has been around unpunished for far too long.
Oh I get ya on the fun question! I'm jus a long-winded type that loves to examine and discuss various aspects of a topic :P Between a Rock n Hard place situation here...or...between a Pallet & Head On?
I just wish more people took bad games in stride! I played about half a dozen matches between our laste responses and every single one, no lie, had a person DC (and they were obvious ragequits) xP It's become a full on meme for me, since I sorta main Ghost Face.
-
@arslaN said:
If you go against a really agressive team as ghostface you can't even use your power since they reveal you instantly. He is decent but not that good imo.
The thing is, it's kinda better to use Ghost Face's Shroud ability to sneak up and get a hit/grab and more importantly use it during a chase and mindgame em at loops/areas by breaking off line of sight and loop around em. Actually using his ability to Stalk & Expose them isn't as useful as we wish it was. You may get a couple of marked hits, but generally speaking it's a one-trick pony thing.

@hiC said:
So here’s a question: would you rather play at green/yellow ranks where everyone DCs or red/purple ranks where we’re all super sweaty? Not being rhetorical; genuine question.
I usually end up high Green and jus barely into low Purple, but because of work I don't get much of a chance to play extensively and even then I don't care about pips, so much as having fun. Ive faced a fair amount of Purple players too, some that DC almost as frequently.
To answer your question I don't care where I fall into at rank, with the DCs, limited time (yay work) + queue times, I doubt Id realistically sit at Purple Ranks long enough to matter/see a difference. Especially when I play so many Killers that honestly don't fair too well VS the SWF/Sweaty groups. I also lost progress recently & even more with deranking on my Evil Incarnate attempts.
I just want fun games, plain and simple, people across all Ranks do DC, I watch plenty of YouTubers/Streamers at Purple & Red Rabks and I see DCing as an issue there too. So I honestly don't see ranking up as much of a fix for this.
-
If you read the tooltip on DS it says INCREASE your chance to be the obsession, it doesn't guarantee that you are the obsession.

@FrenziedRoach said:
Eh, I had some genius disconnect as I picked them up and carried them to deathhook. And all I can think is "I'm still getting the points buddy, all you did was save me a few seconds and allow me to chase your former teammates sooner. Who's the bad guy here?"
A survivor dipping out on a game screws over the other survivors, doesn't really punish the killer.
If a killer leaves, it's still a dick move, but at least everybody has the chance to get into a new game immediately....
That's what I'm on about, it just gives me more power/advantage and kinds trivalizes matches and I usually try to toy with those that remain, but it's been more towards the middle and end of matches they DC which means I usually don't want to farm or mess around as much. It just ruins the other 2-3 Survivors fun and may even result in those players playing less or not at all...which is something I really don't want.
Edit: Also DCing/Ragequitting against a Scratch Mirror Myers baby (never ran it till then) just boggles my mind a lil xP
-
I wish Doctor had fake Gens or fake skill checks on Gens xD I jus wanna mass Troll Survivors...at least as an add-on or something
-
Enduring or Bamboozle and Dying Light are my personal optimal picks from what you posted. Dying Light is a surprise hit that people underestimate outside of Plague & Freddy slow builds. If you're decent or great as Billy, you'll be getting some fast hooks and get quite a few stacks up fast and in combination with PGTW & Billy's fast ability to zip to Gens for hard regression.
Enduring or Bambizzle are great depending on if you get window vaulted a lot or pallet slammed more. It also depends what your mindgaming is like for loops if you need Bambizzle or not
-
I like it decently enough and most likely will get it because I want all the Hallowed cosmetics and I play her enough. But yeah VS the others it's lacking. I wish like half,her face was more skeletal looking, different clothes and def needed a more interesting weapon design. Compared to Clown, Hag & Spirit it REALLY looks rushed. Gonna say that her Sea-Giat Whorshiper cosmetic outfit is by far her best looking one.
-
Been encountering WAY more Survivors DCing soon as things go south for them or the game as a whole. At least every game where it looks to be a 3-4K at least 1-2 DC.
-
Nah to both sides.
I don't play Survivor enough to burn out of em and I play almost every Killer and usually rotate em, rarely playing more than 5 games in a row as the same Killer

Yep, ds and head on won’t remove corrupt purge
Thanks for the information and reply :D! I haven't had the situation of being hit with Head On ever, let alone with Corrupt Purge and I don't recall DS hitting me with it either, so I jus had zero idea.
That's def balanced as the stuns can sometimes be enough to allow the Power to run out or low enough to not be a threat. The Pallet stun tho is needed as it be super cheap to hit em after, regardless if they ran or tried to hide. Would be unfun imo.
-
-Monitor & Abuse is practically a instant slot
-Spirit Fury + Enduring is really great on him as people will def try to pallet stun you in Tier 3 EW
-Infectious Fright is a fun, gimmicky but effective use for getting multiple insta downs in Tier 3 as IF alerts you of nearby Survivors.
-Pop Goes the Weasel is part of the meta for slowing down Generators
-Dying Light (Is a Michael Perk, so you'll already have it) is a great slow down Perk, especially combined with PGTW
-Ruin & BBQ are safe bets if nothing else
-
Yep...either give us an empty map to practice or maybe an AI dummy to practice on/with.
-
Wait, what? I have never heard of a Survivor hating the fact they got their Decisive Strike off xD! What kind of situation was this done in? I've only used DS since it's rework and only a few times have I been tunneled to actually us DS and loved it xD

I don't have any reports of this trophy being bugged on console as of right now I'm afraid. With regard to the loss of progress I can only direct you to support to submit a claim but I'm afraid they will be unable to give you the achievment...and I agree it's a really hard one to get!
I appreciate the response Mandy! This thread is a bit of s rant, but also some awareness. I don't known if the Progress bug/issue that's at the top of the page coincides with what happened to me or if it was something else.
I know it comes across as ridiculous or silly, but I have anxiety and self esteem issues and in addition to my job taking up pretty much a lot of my time (40+ hour weeks past 2 1/2 months) I jus have been frazzled and tired...to have had victory given to me on a first try made me the happiest person, to then have that deadening silence of no Trophy pop just kinds became a pallet slamming on,my head (ironically my job has me handle pallets a lot...lulz).
Hoping to try again today, even if a progress issue is about because I need to start Prestiging Michael before the coming weeks to take advantage of the upcoming events. Do or die, I guess?
