Survivor: rank 4.
Killer: rank 20. Aww. Last time I played, I reached rank 18 and was against red ranks three matches in a row. I felt clueless and decided to come back later to properly learn.

Stealths okay but it lacks points. In my early days I put object of obsession on and just got chased by the killer and focused on the chase for a little while. I died a lot in the process but I didn't worry about escaping or points I just focused on getting better in chase and after a little while I learnt tiles a lot better and got a lot better at looping and it improved my gameplay a lot.
Great advice.
As @Jyn_Mojito, I was playing stealthy. I still do when I see it's the better option. But before, I didn't want to be chased because I knew I would be downed in ten seconds. I watched lot of videos, hoping I would suddenly be good... Theory helped, of course, but practice is where I started to improve.
Huntress is my weakness, for instance. This morning, I looped and stunned a red rank one. I was proud of myself. She got me later though!
I still have a lot to learn. But forcing myself to get involved into chases had two benefits to me:
- It's fun. Being chased is fun! I do hope the Killers I face have fun too, trying to predict what each other is gonna do next.
- I improved and now, I'm not afraid anymore of being chased. I still am afraid of some Killers (Spirit, I look at you!), but I know I will learn.
Also, I played the whole day without perk yesterday, and it helped me too to improve. I was like, I don't rely on anything but myself. I'm not saying perks carry us, but having none, I sure focus on my gameplay only. When I will feel enough comfortable with no perk, I think I will use more variety into my builds, instead on counting on the same ones over and over.
Good luck, @Jyn_Mojito with your matches! I would like to hear about how it went with all the advices you got there.

The last time I tried turning it off as a survivor I was getting the same teammate and killer player 3 times in a row.
Same. It was always the same Survivors and the same Killer. Like only four other people were playing around.

Alright!

Where are you getting all this from, OP?
I was going to ask the same.

Good tips. I like DyllonKG's videos, I think he explains things clearly.

"Thanks, we all die because of you."
I was doing a generator, the three of them were downed within five seconds of each other and they get hooked in the basement.
I was like, not again... Well, let's try. I don't want to check for the hatch, we've done nothing.
I've got two saves with BT. They ran away of the basement, teabagged because they knew they were able to get a hit without being downed, then be downed again.
And it was my fault. :D
I just said I was sorry if I've done something wrong and I left. No need to be mean in return, I have better to do.
-
Devour Hope was active? I don't remember the detail of the perk, but it should allow the Killer to use their mori. Also, when Devour is active, it's a one-shot.

Cuties! What are their names, if I may ask? (I understand if they want privacy about it. Tell them they're cute and made me smile. I had a good day, and it's even better when I see cute and happy animals.)
-
Fixated (Nancy's perk) fits well a build with Sprint Burst. You can walk more often as you were walking faster, and save Sprint Burst.
Quick and Quiet works well with Dance With Me (Kate's perk) and Lithe (Feng's perk), or with Deception (Élodie's perk) and Head On (Jane's perk).
Adrenaline works with pretty much everything. You can have another exhaustion perk as when Adrenaline hits, it will ignore the fact you're exhausted (if you are at this moment).

@Mysterynovus said:
Whenever I play Survivor, one of my favorite moments (rare as it is) is seeing the teabagging teammate get got by the killer in the exit gate. Unless I need to save someone, I'm out. I got no reason to taunt. Bye, enjoy your mori 💀
I do the same. If there is no one to save and a teammate is teabagging at the gate, I leave. No matter what happens next!
-
Favorites:
- Oni. He has a great design, I love his power... He's definitively my favorite.
- Demogorgon. I wanna pet him.
- Trickster. I know he's not out yet, but I like his creepy smile.
- Spirit. She's related to Oni. I'm biased.
- Billy. I hate his design, but I often have fun against Billy.
Least favorites:
- Huntress. I don't know, I just wanna hide in a locker the entire game when I hear her.
- Plague. I'm kind of hypochondriac.
- Pig. I don't like travelling the whole map to remove the trap. I'm often the unlucky one who remove the trap at the last machine.
- Freddy. Ugh.
- Bubba. Ugh too. Or should I say erhh aarhf eergg.
-
Well. I have a better idea: we can read in everyone's mind. We all know what we are going to do. The best players would be able to confuse the others that they are thinking something but, actually, they think something else! What a twist.

@Zixology said:
There's a guy who started uploading videos on YouTube where he basically follows the killer's rulebook.
The rules he use are no perks/pallets/windows/items/t-bagging/gestures/healing, no working on anything coop, no 99 exit gates, all gens must be 99'd to avoid "gen-rush", no SWF, only default Dwight.
It's actually insane.
Have you a video to share? I'm curious to watch.
Edit: sorry, I missed the post you shared it. Thanks then!

I don't know them, I'm a solo Survivor. I was playing my baby P1 Meg for the fun, with three random perks. Steve... Thank you! I don't ask people to be grateful when I take a protection hit, or anything to save them, but... Thanks.
I went to a door, Dwight 99% it and we left the area. I went to the other door, because Steve was injured and I wanted to make sure he was fine. He was opening the second door, and I stayed behind him to protect him. One second before he was done, the Killer went to us and I got the hit. Steve opened and we escaped together. The other two Survivors followed a few seconds later.
That kind of reaction makes me so happy. It's unexpected, and I feel so glad I took the hit for you. I wish I have people like you in my lobbies more often, because if you reacted this way, it means you would do the same. (At least, I like to think it is the case.)
We're not all the same. XD
(I don't main Meg, tho! Maybe there is the reason for.)

Turn crossplay off. You're going to get mega sweats and comp players on PC cross off at red ranks, but it's still a much better experience.
I do that sometimes, and I always face the same player and my teammates are also always the same.
Like there are only four other players around.

https://forum.deadbydaylight.com/en/discussion/236753/green-rank
Honestly if you just play the game alot you'll end up at red ranks before you know it, just make sure you get a unhook, heal a teammate, do gens , get chased, and do at least one totem and you will pip everytime
That's why there are a lot of potatoes in red ranks, including me! 🙈

@ProfGameAndTalk said:
When you find a killer with TTV in their name, text them in their chat if they're live and ask them to let you get it. I think there are plenty out there that would be up to let you get it.
I know I would.
But you don't know the name of the Killer before the end of the match.

If not him then Oni ^^
Cheryl, Oni and Trickster?
It was exactly what I wanted to answer! Cheryl is my favorite character from Silent Hill, I love Japanese folklore, and Trickster looks handsome and creepy in the same time, I like it.
-
"If they are constantly looking behind them while running that means they have deadhard."
I look behind me often while being chased and I don't use Dead Hard.
-
Fixated, Quick and Quiet.
I don't know if they're considered as bad perks, but I love them so much.

Annnnnnnd that's why I love my boy Blight, 100% counter to W holders.
Billy and Blight (and Oni when he has his power on) are fun to go against because of that.

Is SBM being added with Chapter 19?
I don't think we have an official statement about when the SBM is coming to be live.
(But I do wish it'll be added with chapter 19.)

@dnj510 said:
You're a great teammate.
The exit gate wasn't too far off so theoretically, I could have escaped. To pour more salt on the wound, the person that unhooked me was running IN FRONT of me so that I was directly in front on the killer. No NOED, no BT, just a scary punk along with his punk friends at the exit gate.
Did you manage to escape? They could come to help for the save instead of waiting near the gate. 😭

i started playing in october 2020 too. i got the halloween dlc just before ds came to the shrine and you dont want to know how mentally painful that feeling is.
btw, when i said it was in the shrine 2 years ago i meant 2 years ago before it came to the shrine
Oh, I see! Sorry, I misunderstood then. And I feel your pain. I bought a DLC for a perk and two weeks later, it was on the shrine... I just get DLC when a Survivor/Killer is cool now. 😹

inner strength aint meta, and decisive strike hasnt been the shrine for 2 years.
I started to play in October 2020, I don't own Laurie and I have DS. It was on the shrine a few weeks ago.
I couldn't have it if it was two years ago last time.

I always try to get a protection hit. Not for WGLF, but because I wanna help my teammates to get out. If I'm healthy, no NOED or any other OS mechanic, there is no reason for me not to take the risk of saving a teammate. But I'm also the one ready to trade hook at the end.
And each time, I got Survivor who hide when they're never been hooked and I'm on death hook and could take a protection hit to make more distance. Or the Survivor waiting at the exit gate, just to watch you, doing nothing to help. You're healthy, come behind me to protect me, please!
I understand if they don't risk the save if they're injured, alone, and no way to be healed. Escape, it's fine, you can't do a lot. But if I'm the injured one with no way to heal and I'm alone, I'm getting insulted if I don't try. Sorry, I wanna help as much as possible, but... OK, next match, I took the risk. My teammate was hooked, I tried to save them, knowing I had little chance to do so. I've got insulted by both the Survivor and the Killer! The doors were opened, I could escape.
But for sure I take a protection hit, the aggro if you're on death hook or if the Killer comes back while I'm doing a save, etc. Sadly it rarely happens the other way. (I miss MMR for this, I had much more altruistic teammates who did their best to save everyone, instead of leaving as soon as they opened the gates.)

I was in a Solo Survivor game as Kate and we had a Billy. The funniest and cutest thing he did was just zoom past us and roar all match, all across the map. He even got downs and allowed us to heal the downed Survivors. I could see that he was just having a fun time and once the exit gates were open, I gave him my toolbox and nodded my Kate's head at him. No other Survivor was rude at all to him, so that was a plus. He even nodded back at me and went back to zoomin' around. I actually really wanted to let him hook me so he got a kill, but still, I really appreciated that Billy and I hope he has great games here on out!
I've had a similar Billy. I don't know what happened, but I ran him for two minutes after he killed two of my teammates. I eventually got downed, and David found an opportunity to get me up. Billy came back to us, and I kept myself ready to start a new chase, but he zoom past us and roar as your Billy did. When I saw he was chilling around, I finished the generators with David, and we played a bit with Billy to the exit gates.
We let him downing us at the exit gates for him to get extra BP. I don't know if he was done with a daily or a challenge and decided to let us leave, or if it was the fact I ran him for so long that he decided to spare us. It was good practice to me. Also, thank you Billy, I've finally got the "stun the Killer four times with a pallet in a single trial". Usually, I'm super greedy when I try this one and I finish with only three stuns.

Update was never given an official release date but people assumed that it would drop 3 weeks after the PTB as usual. Now people are upset that it's confirmed to release next week because they're so caught up in their own presumptions that they're complaining it was "delayed".

Have you the tweet or something where it was confirmed for next week?

Icekoob, a Nurse main. He's nice and fun in my opinion.
Cope, a Fog Whisperer. He plays both side: he starts his stream with Killer gameplay (for two hours I think) then he swtiches to Survivor gameplay.
Others mentionned Bronx, and I totally recommand to watch him too. He was the first streamer I started to watch, but unfortunatelly, as I'm from France, I have a hard time to catch his stream in time.
I think Icekoob is the only small streamer I watch, but I wanted to mention Cope and Bronx as well as I think their streams are nice.

It'll definitely slow the game down because people will have more incentive to cleanse totems.
You mean the Hex perk, Crowd Control?

I would not call a game with almost 40,000 players on average dead.
I'm from ESO, I played it for five years since beta. People told on the official forums that the game would be dead before the end of the year every week. I don't read the forums anymore but I'm sure they still say it. I never noticed a huge decrease in the player population during my 6k hours playtime.
I think people like to say a game is dead for no reason.
-
I have no clue, but I've read the comments on Twitter and apparently, some think it means Legion will get an exhaustion add-on.
@GoodBoyKaru said:
If I'm being perfectly honest I don't have a clue.
My guess is that 2020 people started the year all happy together and 2021 we're all just exhausted.
But this is also a way to see the tweet. I wouldn't be surprised if it was just a message like this and not a clue about a rework or anything related to the game actually.
P.S.: now, I can see the second picture being indoors and Legion being alone and not with the other members.

not really. what if there is no one near. what if one do the gen while i heal. that's teamwork. why he should waste time healing me when he can done the gen while i heal.
I'm not here to tell anyone how to play, but what about finishing the generator and getting the heal after by the teammate?

@Tsulan said:
I wonder how long we will see the new killer before he "vanishes". Usually, when a new chapter releases, we see the new killer non stop for 2 weeks.
Pizza head was 5 days. Twins were 2 days. I think the trickster will be somewhere between 2 and 5 days.
I had to wait a few days before meeting my first Twins. I hope to see the Trickster a bit earlier after his release.
But I think I will see a lot of Yun-Jin.

You still get paired with red rank survivors when you're in purple ranks. Heck even green rank killers do.
Aww, I see. 😭

Why I am in red ranks is the question of my life.
Sorry if I misunderstood, but if you got zero hook, you should depip and getting back to purple, no?
