I'm a killer main who is disappointed about todays announcement.
However I'm staying and enjoying learning The Mastermind. Anyone have any tips :)
Be patient with his power. You don't lose that much distance on his cooldown.
I enjoy running the Gloves and Tendril. Makes you move faster and makes your cooldown faster.

I don't want to tunnel. I don't want to camp. I don't want to three gen. I just want to chase. These changes won't fix these playstyles, only make them worst. 8 sec CoH heal? SWF abuse, why not just tunnel? DH still guaranteed? Camp then tunnel so you don't have to deal with it. Gen regression gutted? Protect your three gen since pressure is out the window.
CoH: You need to set-up a Boon, assume the Killer doesn't immediately snuff it, get injured, run to Boon and then heal. Oh, but double that time because another Survivor has to also run to the Boon and heal you.
DH: Not guaranteed. You still have to actually land it. It still doesn't work on some Killers. You don't get it at the beginning of the game. You also only get it twice and it deactivates if you miss.
PR: Still good. Not crazy, but definitely good.

DH is stronger now than the old "DH for distance" because you get sprint burst distance on demand.
DH should give endurance but no movement speed buff. The problem is that it has always given better distance than both Lithe and Sprint Burst and as a result lets you waste more time.
Look at what happened to Eruption - the core effect that made it worth using got obliterated.
DH should get an equal treatment to where it goes down to 1-5% usage among top players.
Yeah, you're trolling me.
DH now is not stronger than DH for distance. I'm putting my foot down on that one.
That's completely and blatantly untrue. You should be ashamed for even attempting to spread that #########.

You can't use Dh in your first chase,any chase after thats if fair game.Just like its first nerf,people are overeacting,good players will still get value out of it.
Pain res did not get buffed.They just chose not to kill it,it's definitely worse than it previous iteration.If the devs consider it a buff just revert the changes then,i'm sure you wouldn't mind.
CoH is still strong.It doesn't break the game anymore,and its hard to use in solo queue,but swf will abuse the heck out of it.
It also feels like you didn't read my post.Never did i mention pain res in it,nor is it an attempt at answering the injustice being commited,devs can't just alt f4 a survivor perk for good and it shows
Self-Care.

Because i don't want to be playing with jolt, corrupted, eruption and deadlock. Also all those perks are kinda poopoo.
I love using some info perks, and i love slobby. I won't play with 4 crappy gen defenses.
Also youd be surprised how many 2-3k hour survivors ive seen using self care...at those hours they should know better.
In perfect world id like this game to be balanced so killers can actually use perks for chasing and for info without having to worry about gens flying which is the case now.
That's fine.
You shouldn't be able to beat players who are playing optimally (assuming you are at the same skill level) if you aren't also playing optimally.
In order to achieve your idea of balance, we would need to delete ALL gen regression or blocking perks and re-balance the base game.

DH is definitely dead.
Pain Res got buffed from the PTB.
CoH got its main strength completely removed.

That’s if you get lucky with RNG and have a scourge hook close by. A perk that potentially give you no value isn’t worth using.
So, DH isn't worth using.
I understand what you're saying, you've just made a pretty poor argument.

For me lately gen speeds and healing have been an issue, and i think it will continue to be the same. This new CoH speed will be really broken with SWFS and good survivors will bring a healing perk like we'll make it to the game instead of self care.
I'm little worried since ive been playing with Jolt only lately and against good survivors i have to sweat and tunnel my ass off..which isnt fun.
Good Survivors weren't using Self-Care.
Likewise, if you are using only Jolt and you are playing against optimal players, why should you win? You are handicapping yourself and they aren't.

I read it as 'in lieu of', but I could be mistaken.
Edit: Mandy confirms in this thread that it 'can't activate until you've been hooked'. So it only activates when you are unhooked now, and not when you unhook someone else:

I mean to be hooonest... if im 100% honest here this new DH change will actually give me a reason to tunnel
If i hit the person off the hook they get endurance effect and they can't use their DH. Makes more reason to tunnel them so they can't use it right.
Not saying i will im just saying NOTHING changed. This update is really survivor sided, and as much as i love the medkit change i don't think CoH should have been 100% again. Survivors will just use we'll make it anyways so nothing changes. People will be healed fast and killers will struggle at higher MMR, now with worse perks.
Billy buff is nice. He deserves it. I think i will take a break from killer side.
CoH is now a risk reward perk.
You need to take the time to set up a Boon and you need two Survivors to heal with it. All of that is essentially free time for me as a Killer.
I expect this to be a somewhat fair patch, though it is difficult to tell. I don't expect it to affect my kill rates much.

It is, taking into account how it works, most of the time you should not get 25% regression as not all gets will have 25% progress so you have to use those 4 tokens when you know a gen is in high progress, you down a survivor for the first time (so probably early on the match so the effect is not as powerfull) and close to a scourge hook, its so circumstantial its practically useless, just because it has a pretty number on it doesn't make it good.
You aren't forced to use a scourge hook lmao.
This rewards good Killers for not tunneling. It's a W and a well designed perk.

Well, it would be hooking 4 unique Survivors, which does not help in the pressure department since I could have easily tunneled someone out of the match, and would have basically won regardless... but I think nobody wants that to be the current state of balance.
And Ive had matches where I get hooks early on but struggle later in the match because Survivors saved resources for later in the match. So 4 hooks early on does not necessarily mean you will win either, which ya know, happens sometimes. DBD will be DBD sometimes.
Overall, if I tunnel someone, I should not get the regression, otherwise, if I play well and spread hooks, I should be rewarded for trying to not tunnel.
Again, I normally run just a single regression perk, but I want to feel rewarded for playing skillfully. I am actively making the match more difficult for myself so why cant I have something to help me out?
And I think you are rewarded via burst regression for not tunneling.
25% of total progress is huge.
Also, four hooks is four hooks. If you're smart about it, that means only one person can be doing gens. (Someone hooked, someone to unhook, some chased and someone on a gen)
-
@Trollinmon said:
PR got changed from sustain regression to burst. It's 25x4=100/15=6.66 so you need to put each survivor once on a scourge hook and you get regression equal to 6.66 PR hooks on current patch. Keep in mind you don't always get scourge hooks nor need them very deep into the game. Shouldn't do anything other than nerf players that tunnel and camp.
Pushing people away from tunneling and camping is always a W, imo.
-
I didn't think it was clear.
Is it in addition to unhooking a Survivor safely or in lieu of unhooking a Survivor safely?
One results in more uses and the other in less.
Hopefully someone from BHVR can clarify.

25% total regression on one generator once per survivor assuming hook RNG works out in your favor is, in fact, quite a lot to scoff at
Okay.
You also don't have to travel to kick the gen and it applies instantly.
But yes, I understand. You must run 4 gen regression perks or else you insta-lose as Killer.

I would personally prefer to use Pop Goes... it's normally the only regression perk I bring anyways.
I think it is the limited use factor that does it, I do not like the feeling of "you can only use this ___ amount of times", it feels like I am punished for playing too well because Im just stuck with an empty perk slot for the rest of the match.
If you've managed to hook 4+ people in the early stage of the match, you do NOT need extra regression on top of it.
You're already winning.
-
Hmmmm, no.
This update seems pretty good right now.
Med-Kits are still rightfully nerfed. CoH's main issue is fixed, no more infinite self-heals. DH is in a good spot, it gets more powerful the weaker the Survivor team is. PR got a good buff from the PTB, 25% is huge value.
Oh, and Billy got a net buff, which is always appreciated.

@Iron_Cutlass said:
I mean they buffed SH: Pain Resonance... kinda... not really. It's still going to be a dead perk.
I personally wish they added an anti-tunnel mechanic to it and that was it, it would be a nerf but it would also promote players to go for more hooks. The regression would overall be the same if you were skilled enough to manage chases. But nope, we have this token effect which I do not like in the slightest.
25% total regression is nothing to scoff at.

I see, I know when I was on the PS4 I had performance problems big time, when I got a PS5 I didn't notice any it was a lot better.
But then again I don't play that much anymore so maybe it's getting worse. I do remember the last time I played it was on the knights map a stuttering or something happened and then a few seconds later I got kicked for the match. That was a couple of months ago all the other matches I played were fine.
Make no mistake, the Series X and PS5 have the power to brute force the game.
The issue is that when games like Battlefield 2042 and Elden Ring run way better.

Two years since the thread.

I'm definitely disappointed that there's been radio silence, though I'm not really surprised.
I'd say the odds of 60 FPS happening for Xbox One and PS4 (as well as budget PC's) is extremely slim at this point. If anyone was banking on them fixing it, I'd say to let it go.
You've given them four years. If it was a priority, it would've been fixed.

If that's the case, then it's likely a memory issue, which in that case I don't blame Behavior for being reluctant to fix it.
They can either reduce the amount of clutter on the map, giving consoles an advantage, or make the game look like Roblox-

@WeakestNurseMain said:
I have a mid tier CPU/GPU with plenty of ram and a fast SSD.
That being said I can't run the game at any settings higher than 1080 Medium graphics without getting dips below 60 fps.
The closest thing to a solution you can realistically get is Behavior lowering the graphically fidelity heavily, I know it sucks because I used to play on console, but the game's development is running at such high speeds that there's no way in hell that even with 3 straight months of development specifically to console optimization, they could deliver on this promise while keeping the graphics good.
Supposedly, Console is locked on either High or Ultra graphics settings.
BHVR has also told us that lowering those settings wouldn't help.

I could maybe see how the first match was difficult, especially considering your build. They BM'd you a little in the end-game chat? That's not even bad, move on.
I dislike the term "bully squad". It trivializes bullying into being Survivors trying to annoy the Killer.
You clearly did fine in both matches. Your point totals and the Survivors are close.
The 2nd match looks totally winnable. Probably down to your own play. Seriously, Jane was doing her Adept. They aren't running the same 4 perks.

How can a Killer get a 4K at 5 gens? He can only chase one survivor, maybe switch target to another one. Sometimes two are running in front of the killer, because they were on the same gen.
How can it happen, that he wins without losing a single gen? The other survivors must have opened chests or playing at their smartphone instead of sitting on a gen. Dont blame killers for useless teammates.
I dunno.
I don't win at 5 gens frequently but it's certainly happened more than once in the last week.

Yes I agree with you too that it's more Killer sided if we look at the average player skills which is a good way to look.
But then as the Survivor's skill increases the more the scales tip to the other side. The current MMR dosnt help keeping the balance either
Well, yeah.
If any player brings a wacky fun build, they are probably gonna get tunneled/gen rushed and have a bad time.
That's basically just how the game works at this point, unfortunately.

Great. This game is not casual. You want to have fun with a completely wacky build? Good luck because you’re getting gen rushed
Casual level.
You know, the average player.
The average Survivor isn't very good. The average Killer is also not great. However, most average Killers are pretty big on tunneling, camping and relying on regression perks.
It takes MUCH more skill to break 3-gens, counter tunneling and to counter camping than it does to employ those tactics.
Hence, I think the game is maybe a little Killer-sided without those things at a casual (average) level but with those things, I find it to be very Killer-sided.
The better the Survivors are, the more likely they are to be able to counter those strats.
-
I'd say at a causal level, this game currently leans towards Killers a bit.
I think if those Killers employ certain strats, the balance can tip a lot further.

Fun fact, Dead Hard being "just press a button" is not propaganda, it's factual, just as "Sprint Burst is a button away" or "Lithe is a window or pallet away" are factual, ignoring the server/latency problems, Dead Hard is always going to be a button press away from activating once you are injured, whether you succeed in triggering it or not
On a different note, successfully triggering Dead Hard is not skill-based, it's timing-based, it does not take skill to press a button when you think the killer will hit you, it does, however, require good timing and knowledge of what your opponent will do
Learn what words mean, because you might find that they mean something completely different to what you think they mean
Is knowing the timings for basic attacks, powers and accounting for latency NOT skill?
Is making a read on your opponent also not skill?
Forgive me, but I'm pretty sure that's called being skilled at the game.
