They gloat to demoralize and get a reaction.

Shape and Huntress are up next for review. They’re the last addons out of the structure they like having. I think Pig needs a ‘pass’ more than Legion or Demo though.

Ah yes, here comes the "as a (arbitrary restriction like no add-ons) (x) main, this is what you need to do"
Placing portals on gens is good, however it is even better when you place them in a spot that gives you even more value (such as between two gens that are close by). Also guaranteeing the effects of portal related add-ons is essentially useless when it's either 5 seconds of exhaustion or 30 seconds of blindness, wow, so useful.
Also your statement about rat liver and holding shred clearly shows you aren’t as great as you think you are with Demo.
You don’t have to like specific status effects, but in my opinion the additional time to break portals and increased range addons are useful. If survivors break portals first, that 80 second gen turns to 95~ seconds. The extra range reveals survivors hiding nearby and allows exit gate portals to be even more effective.

Sorry I offended you and your crutch addon. Frankly, I was hoping for a thoughtful response.

I do like Plague. I’m iffy about using Thana/Dying Light on her. A big partof the slowdown provided by Thana/Dying Light is slowing down healing. Since that’s negated completely, the perks lose some of their edge.
Im a fan of Corrupt Intervention, Brutal strength, Monitor and Abuse over those two.

You know the name of the Hag one?
Ashen Locks Petrification
-
Hag’s rare (green) headpiece that looks like a undercut dreadlock ponytail makes her her shortest stature. You can see a lot of streamers use it on their Hag, notably Otzdarva and Hexy, regardless of the body cosmetic they choose.
One of my favorites is that Clown’s pink elephant cosmetic makes him blend into his tonic clouds.
-
After playing Demogorgon to prestige three and beyond for specific perks, In my opinion the vocal Demo players are misusing portals for surprise attacks over informational use and crutch misusing the shred.
Perscriptions:
- Place the portals directly on generators. The portals are actually quite effective at gen slowdown as survivors want to break these often times. Also by putting the portals on generators the Demo guarantees the effects of his addons. After some setup it’s surveillance on the objectives.
- Stop holding shred during chase. The brown addon that increases Demo’s shred walk speed is a crutch and overrated. The demo would be better knowing the situations that guarantee a shred hit and react to the survivor rather than walk around holding shred for longer than three seconds.
-
The Kanabo is highly sensitive when swinging. The community fought for this so Oni could do high degree flicks. Aim dressing walls is just a symptom of the flexibility of the flick.
My instinct is to tell Oni players to learn patience in moving during the flick.
-
When I stay it is in the interest of getting more bloodpoints, whether helping a teammate or the final boldness points from a chase. Just chase them out.
Its interesting how demoralized people get from this game.
-
I’m still iffy on how strong he is. It’s interesting how few streamers think he’s particularly strong.
-
The overheat mechanic, in its current form, doesn’t bother me. The four or so addons do since I won’t be utilizing them.
-
Maybe reduce her lullaby by eight meters. I wouldn’t want a 12 meter terror radius killer with hatchets.
-
I am guessing that we all start at zero MMR with all killers and against all killers. You were a zero against Trappers and that Trapper was zero. Give it time. You’ll be hating the difficulty of the game in no time.
-
Her hair ‘thickens’ on low. There’s a similar change with her white hair on the last outfit.
-
I was playing a Deathslinger. I was the obsession, they shot me, and realized they were not hitting me even though they could so I stopped struggling and it took a really long time for the chain to break 😂
-
Ormond was so bad.
-
They clearly don’t want fast charge time Billy’s. I think they should’ve just removed the downside to this addon and all of his addons. They already removed a couple. Maybe 4.5 like Hag’s Iridescent.
Purple is not exactly easy to collect. We’re not all OhToFu with his 500 Apex Mufflers.
-
Me personally I would have preferred the Hillbilly collision addon becoming uncommon (yellow) over the turning speed. I liked that turning speed and hitting obstacle cooldown reduction were both common (brown).
I understand why they made speed limiters common, but I don’t really want more of them.
Many of the fixes were appreciated. Engravings are back. The lopro and Apex swap makes a lot of sense in retrospect and appreciate the further nudge into silent Billy builds.
-
Its on the forum. I prefer going to DBD Twitter and clicking the hyperlink they provide.
-
I know this fix was probably mentioned on the merged thread first, but this thread should be pinned.
-
Confirmed this method worked. After clearing the download cache it automatically restarts Steam in the process.
Thank you, Gusto. Upvote.
-
I want to believe.
-
Me too. Was in game. Suddenly several DLCs were not showing in game (Oni, Demogorgon, etc.). Closed the game. Reviewed steam. Said I had all the DLCs but were 'installing.'
Restarted computer. Reopen Steam and it wants me to repurchase the game. Only shows one DLC (for Executioner/Cheryl).

Yeah. 3 of us throw in cakes and only 1 will show up before the loading screen. Then on the score board it shows that only one of us used a cake and the other two will have the same number of cakes as before. When we tried just one person using a cake it seems to work, but multiple seem to be bugged.
Then that confirms that the issue is switching characters in the killer’s lobby. Survivors can still do that but reset the offerings by unequipping and reequipping the offering you want. Do it before the match starts. The cakes will work.
-
I actually do not have issues with getting Adept killers anymore. A couple of them were difficult (Oni being the worst), but now it’s just a fun challenge when I work on a new killer. Two left for me and I have all twenty.
You have to slug and let them back up irregardless by the way in order to build up the chaser emblem. Trying to win quickly is exactly what the emblem system wants to disincentivize.

"Pretty good job so far"
When they said they were going to fix her add ons it was a rare moment for DBD. One of the few things both sides agreed on. 4x blink nurse was broken. Yet they had to take it one step further. This is why "rework" causes alarm among killers. Reworking weak killers is usually good but when they mess with a strong killer they tend to screw it up. Look at Nurse and Billy. Spirit and Huntress are probably next.
The Hillbilly rework, in retrospect, was well done. The PTB was concerning. Very concerning. But so was Doctor’s PTB and he also came out great.
Nurse is the only arguable failure yet several fog whisperers insist she’s the best.
I find her frustrating even while winning. Only killer that makes me want to put the game down after a 4k.
-
Pop Goes the Weasel and BBQ are the building blocks for all of my killers. Monitor and Abuse is a must in my opinion. The terror radius is so small and so is her stature. It’s very difficult for survivors to spot you unless the Hag is brightly colored.
With three base perks, my flex slot is A Nurse’s Calling (28 meter aura with 16 meter terror radius) or Save The Best For Last (an aggressive perk, which suits me).
Don’t chase. Surprise, swing, hit, reset traps. This wins the matches.

If you say so, the "nerf" was ridiculous he still has the same velocity,if chainsaw never overheats... What Is the difference between old and new Billy?
No charge or cooldown add ons. Chainsaw camping comes at a cost. That’s the crux of the change.
The primary concern was that Hillbilly would be too difficult to play basekit. There’s no issues there in my experience. They actually did a good job with this change.
Itll be great when they update the add ons.

Try to curve now, i bet you weren't even a billy main.
You can 100% curve with Hillbilly. As far as I can tell it’s exactly the same.

saying you hope my family dies, calling me a slur, or threatening my life isnt awkward conversation
Yes, it is. People do not normally act like that. It’s an awkward way to talk to another person because it doesn’t make sense.
At best they want a reaction. Like this thread.
-
I’ve had the switching issue before as well but you won’t see the offering load at the beginning of the match or on the End Game screen. It’s kind of obvious the offerings didn’t load then. Is that what happened with you and your friends, OP?

Watch TUR jay on twitch and YouTube. He has a pretty damn good huntress, on console as a matter of fact.
Jay and Umbra lose all the time.
-
Maybe MMR is starting us at zero. When I switched to PC and started from Rank 20, I rolled over my ranks but I knew the faster I did the faster I could get out of Brown and Yellow ranks.
Maybe that’s where we all are right now.
-
And who gets to decide what bad manners are? I like kind people, too. I hope to talk builds and characters after the game.
Some people are mean and some people don’t know how to socialize really. These people sometimes play video games, too.
A lot of what is being complained about is from awkward people. And awkward people complaining too.
Learning how not to be awkward includes trying immature things. Be a hammer in your conversations if you want, but I wouldn’t go to developers asking for hammers on things like awkward conversations.

It is only because of Streamers getting hit that this got the attention it deserved. How many people came on the forum and complained about bans in the last month or so and their character is questioned.
They need to be treated like everyone else so the problems get "FIXED" not just given a band-aid.
This game has too many band-aids all ready and are a poor excuse for fixes.
Two different issues.

Why should somebody get special privileges/free disconnects? Just because they stream? I don't exactly get what you mean by "unbannable" but either way, why?
Because they were targeted with these false DC penalties. If they cannot be banned, then they can continue streaming. It’s a bandaid, I’ll give you that.
-
Make the big streamers unbannable is probably the next step.
-
Is soliciting allowed in General Discussions? Personally I hope not.

You mean like how the emblem system has been manipulating play for years? Why stop now?
The purpose of it is to allow players who don’t do well to play against others who don’t do well. Rank emblem, in my opinion, was about encouraging players to play in specific ways.
Despite someones feelings today about the emblems, survivors used to play quite a bit more selfishly. Letting others die so they could have a hatch standoff for half an hour.
Maybe it outlived it’s purpose and we are seeing that with the MMR.
-
I would guess they are not going to say specifics to prevent manipulating playstyles.
Play your way. The MMR should compliment that.

I use Sloppy, is that any good on him?
It’s hardly bad, but I don’t consider it his strongest. It’s good for a few extra seconds of slowdown. The math for healing is sixteen seconds (plus twenty percent from mangled). If self caring, its doubled. So if three point two seconds is worth it to the killer, go for it.
The extra blood from hemorrhage is also useful for tracking.
-
My build is I’m All Ears, Pop Goes The Weasel, Brutal Strength, and BBQ n Chili.
To speak to the other perks listed above, Ghostface is not a set up killer (-Corrupt), Hex perks are unreliable (-Ruin), and Bamboozle should be used for killers that windows are actually a weakness for like chainsaw boys or Huntress.
Despite my feelings on these perks they are not bad, but that’s my reasoning for skipping past them.
Let me recommend the Jaee YouTuber. He’s a very talented Ghostface main and utilizes a variety of perk builds. Highly recommended.
-
SWFs are common but killers on the forum only act like it’s a SWF when they are losing.
-
Bad addons and offerings are there to clutter the bloodweb and slow game progression. Even the bloodpoint offerings are basically marginally efficient.
Understanding this purpose, if they implement something like this, they will trash us in another way to make up for its benefits.
I’d prefer they leave it alone and considering this isn’t a new idea, they probably will.
-
I played Hillbilly a lot prenerf and had low low expectations. He’s still exactly the dominating force he was before. Just the add ons were removed.
Granted they were good addons.
But he doesn’t need them.
The silent Billy builds coming out are actually a lot of fun and didn’t exist before. Looking forward to the hotfix so his addons get a slight boost.
-
Valid points, but it looks cool.

Yeah, but it looks cool.
