be a bit sad if they don’t
The new Antidote addition adds to Clown’s overall personality, slightly...
now, we just need a good theme for him to bring it all home.
EDIT: Also, really hope FCC at Crotus is getting a graphical update, as well, with some new Circusy additions

You clutch your chest, stumbling away from computer as your heart struggles to cope with the loss, $300 gaming chair crashing onto the floor, long forgotten. A hundredth tear-stained napkin tossed into the bin as you desperately wipe your face with another, you fall to your knees before the wall's drapery. A trembling hand pulls them aside--
A window, pictures of totems lovingly decorated with stickers and drawings taped to the glass. Your eyes fall to one in particular, bones burning bright as it fills you with a moment's joy before utter despair overwhelms you and sends you retching onto the floor.
As you struggle to reach out to the photo of your baby boy Undying, you close your teary eyes and clutch at your heart as the realization hits you truly.
The Survivor Empire has won.
The oppression will continue, and your people will never know true equality, nor peace.
The fight for freedom and justice.. was all for naught. Entity save us all.
I like your style, Grandpa
Excellent anecdote you’ve created, here
...a nice break from the norm
Thoroughly enjoyed this!

And when one eats chili from a bbq they get they ability to see people from great distances
Jokes aside while that makes sense, it's kind of poorly designed to make a slug perk that would and should be used by special one shot killers have to be basic attack so one shot killer don't get much use out of it
exceptions, exceptions, exceptions
Yes, joking aside, Knockout is one of my fav underrated perks and I’d love to see more players using it. The initial blurry, heartbeat effect is unique, and the perk itself presents a fun challenge as a survivor.
I agree, it could be used well with special attacks, but I personally enjoy the challenge of it being restricted to basics.

I heard that claws,knifes,machetes or katanas usually don't knockout people either :]
The animation’s off a bit, they’re really striking the survivors with the handle of the weapon😉🤫
-
The definition of knockout is “to make a person unconscious, typically with a blow to the head”
Chainsaw’s cut people up, they typically don’t really “knock people out”
The blunt force trauma caused by that huge mallet makes perfect sense to render someone unconscious... hence the perk’s name Knockout

Respect the saw, but don’t fear the Bubba

The killer will always be chasing someone, that’s a given.
The easiest way I’ve found to get MoM activated, early on, is to interrupt chases.
MoM works great with SWFs who can continually interrupt each other’s chases and take the hits, loading up the perk.
I rarely use Mettle, as I play 90-95% Solo queue, and those survivor teammates can be unpredictable.
When I do tho, I’ll hop in the middle of their chase, take the hit, then do my best, if the killer decides to break chase with them and come after me, to lose the killer and escape the chase.
It’s a lot more work than sometimes worth tho, just to achieve 1 extra hit in the game that may not even be needed, imo
-
I agree that the stipulations added to Mettle were a bit much. I’m all for some mild alterations to the perk’s current state.
I feel like it was another perk great for Solo queue, that was nerfed down because of SWFs abusing it too easily, and now no one is using it.
Really hope the devs revisit MoM
-
was actually hoping for Backwater and Haddonfield, but these will do🥳 Yay maps!

Both give off the “empty buildings we haven’t yet moved all our stuff into yet” kinda feel
...but I’m totally vibing on it, tho

Nurse and Nea are my besties💞
Cheryl, Zarina and Nancy are also in my girl power squad
-
Haven’t seen the Twins and Blight in so long,
I’m trying to remember if they were even intimidating
-
Inexperienced players, grouped together in the same area of the map, downed in 10 seconds of a chase, causing all the potential unhooks to vanish in the first 3 min of the game via the 3 survivors repeatedly unhooking each other directly in front of the killer (not points farming, as they probably aren’t even thinking about that) and not knowing that the unsafe hook rescue points penalty is killing those with higher rank’s opportunity to +pip, besides the fact that not more than 1-2 gens get completed before the 6min trial ends.
I’ve been Solo queue mismatched into that scenario too many times.
Matches with teams of Experienced players having common sense and a decent level of wisdom tend to not play foolishly.

Posted this a few times, now
...it’s kinda like a testimonial, I suppose
I was tunneled out of game in 3 consecutive matches.
Then, the next 9 consecutive matches I neg pipped from a combination of teammates farming each other right in front of the killer, DCing, and ending the match on first hook, so quickly that there wasn’t even time or opportunity to safety pip.
I went from Rank 1 to Rank 4 and 3pips
It was a unfortunate streak😔
Took a short break to rest, mentally
Then came back and pipped up to Rank 1 again in a single day.
Best part about it is, I wasn’t worried about pipping... I wasn’t even trying, really. I was completely at peace with everything and simply content in getting to play.
The +pips just happened.
Just because you pip down doesn’t mean you won’t pip back up and achieve ranks you haven’t reached yet.
Even though ranks don’t necessarily matter from a standpoint of skillset, doesn’t mean you can’t strive to maintain whatever rank you aspire to.
DBD is streaky during matches, and setbacks from technical issues are part of the journey, as well
you’ll never enjoy playing the game by worrying while you’re playing it
So no need to stress, just play.
When you rank up, you rank up
...drop some pips, no worries😌

Playing VS a Rank 1 Freddy on Thompson House
...definitely experienced
He brought BBq, Tinkerer, Undying, Devour Hope
...maybe a bit arrogant, tho
His Profile Bio basically telling everyone that they suck and are going to lose
Fast forward to:
3 gens completed
3 hooks total
Devour is activated on Zarina just as Nea’s cleansing a Hex nearby... the Exposed icon disappears
Freddy leaves Zarina down, makes a b-line to the totem explosion, catches and sacrifices Nea while I continue repairing a gen in the corner near the house by the gate.
Meanwhile, Zarina is picked up by Kate.
I’m briefly chased off the gen for a minute, downed and hooked.
4th Gen upstairs in the house is completed
Kate unhooks me and I sprint toward the 50% gen I was working on... she follows, as Zarina is giving Freddy a decent chase; We complete it just when Zarina goes down.
As Kate goes for the rescue, I get the gate 45% as the terror radius increases.
We chase briefly. I run toward the the house and get downed on the steps. Kate goes for the gate. He doubles back and chases her, downing her on the first floor.
Freddy proceeds to open the second gate (both gates spawned right next to the Thompson House). Zarina then finishes opening the other gate I was working on, as Freddy goes for her.
Anticipating him gate patrolling, as both were visible from the house porch, I begin crawling towards the shack which is clear on the other side of the map.
Zarina, fully healed and running his burnt carcass all over that house, is untouchable, long enough for Kate to fully recover and utilize herrr... Unbreakable???
Kate then begins running out of the house toward the gate; he hits her... deep wound.. Soul Guard!
We never cleansed Undying, just 4 of Devour Hope😆
Zarina takes a protection hit and they both bag him at the gate before escaping.
A long crawl later I’m nearing the shack. Expecting to hear children’s voices LaLaLa’ing behind me, I instead pick up faintly, the familiar vacuum sound of freedom.
The hatch spawned in the shack🥳
a moment of silence for poor Nea😔
Freddy’s unfriendly profile words were more of an Autobiography
and that was a tale of a DBD moment when I enjoyed pure satisfaction😌

This is more of an indirect nerf, which doesn’t really feel like a nerf at all, and if anything, prevents her from being nerfed to an extreme that she doesn’t need.
Really like the concept, and the conceivable execution feels as though true Spirit balance is justified.

I feel like they could brush up on the backstories in the original bios. Most of what the original 4 survivors come down to is " they walked into a forest, never to be seen again. "
While I like the simplicity of old lore, having read the newer lore over the past 2 years, they really could go back and reimagine some of the earlier/original character’s stories. Some seem a bit too basic to be easily acceptable, nowadays.
EDIT: Excellent topic btw, wouldn’t have picked up on that
-
It’s hard to imagine 1st person becoming a in-game feature, let alone one that can be switched on and off as easily as crossplay.
Aside from everything else on the technical side of things,
all the money survivors spend on cosmetics that they won’t even be able to see themselves wear in game would be a turn off to many players
...not to mention the devs, who would possibly experience a decrease in cosmetic sales.
I don’t expect anyone to see 1st person happening in DBD any time soon.
1st person survivor DBD without the accompaniment of VR wouldn’t really be adding much to the game anyway, imo
-
Wraith is still in the physical (or entity’s) realm the entire match. When cloaked he’s still there, just invisible. So he would naturally have to walk around survivors and vice versa to get past. So, picking up survivors while in stealth should be viable.
Doesn’t make much sense why he can kick a gen with his invisible leg when cloaked, but can’t swing his invisible arm to hit someone.
-
Legion
sometimes it’s like they’re swinging their hand at the survivors w/o the knife in it... jus not connecting

I play whatever map I get with Myers, even when they counter an Offering (I often roll the dice and don't put one in). I gotta learn to be able to play him on the big maps if I want to play him as often as I like. :)
Wish more players would adapt that same mindset so we would see him in matches more often

The screams of suffering from Bill and Jeff kill me with laughter, I don't know why but I'm amused xD Stun a Deathslinger and watch him scream in pain or laugh too.
Hearing Bill, Jeff or Ash trying to hide loudly behind a rock or a bush while injured is hilarious
...also when they’re moaning obnoxiously as they’re being healed😆

I find the simplest, oddest things amusing
The “wooooooah” expression Nea makes as she slowly climbs out of a 2 story window on Haddonfield.
Sneaky Meg, crouch walking circles around a fire barrel
Dwight and David walking around like goons all match with their heads looking directly upward
Trapper stepping in his own traps
Huntress raging out sfx over a pallet stun
Demo looking silly doing anything😂
I especially find the killer’s aura from across the map amusing when I’m using Alert and they pop up randomly for a few seconds here and there.
-
I laugh at something in every match
Keeps the “it’s supposed to be frustrating” theme from having any control or dominance over my psychological freedom

Nurse... she’s invincibility tier feel while playing her

I often go on runs of map offerings when I get indoor ones way too often. Feels good when the killer absents themselves when their Gideon/Lery's etc. offering is rng'd right out.
Very often it was a spoopy Myers, or the mother of all oppressive Doc builds.
Yeppers!
Surprisingly, killers leaving when their planned realm gets spoiled has happened far more than a few times.
Doc/ Legion also love offering up the Meat Plant
And I’m on console, so offering screen dodging is frequent: Billys/ Huntress leaving on Gideon & Hawkins, PH dodging Springwood & Haddonfield, Survivors backing out when they see Mary’s Letter flip.
Twins and Blight seem to not mind matches anywhere, but I rarely ever see them anymore anyway... go figure
I would think GF wouldn’t want to play Glenvale, but they always do
I never use GF, so I wouldn’t know tho
-
Why doesn’t Leatherface just cut the hands off of survivors so they can’t repair the gens?
-
-
I’ve experienced some strange things.
Crossplay has been turned off for over a month now, and I don’t intend on turning it back on. Prefer all console gaming.
Wait times aren’t any different for me.
The amount off time it takes to get a lobby depends on what time of day/evening you play in your region.

Almost makes you wonder what would happen if there was a live in-person tournament with interchanging groups of 5 players at a time on a stage together in front of a crowd and streamed to the world.
Would these infuriated, toxic overtones be shouted back and forth?
Would a physical fight break out?
Scary to even think about😔
-
So the balance for killer’s who are challenged by bully SWF squads are the matches they play vs uncoordinated (comless) ‘not entirely on the same page’ Solo teams who are easier to get a 3-4K on?
If that’s what you’re saying it’s a interesting take... haven’t seen anyone argue that point here on the forums
Not sure if it’s entirely justified tho, when killers are facing predominantly SWFed up squads more often than Solo teams
there may never be true balance anywhere in this game

Zarina and Kate are the cleanest
Laurie Nancy, Steve and Cheryl have good hygiene
Just because Meggers is a avid runner doesn’t mean she’s a dirty gym locker sweat factory; she keeps it all fresh and perfumy
Honestly no clue about Claudie, but I think she’s above average
Min’s stinkier that she lets on
Yui and Jeff give off a dirty vibe, but I can’t quite place them, idek why
Bill reaks of stale cigarettes, Ace as well, from casino environment lifestyle
Ash might shower once a week
Imagine Dwight uses a potent ‘Anchorman-Ron Burgundy’ esque musk to lure his prey into the nearest locker
Jake has the aroma of freshly ridden horseback on him at all times
Honestly feel like Quinten only takes cold showers to keep himself awake, but is so partially lucid and zombified to even wash himself while he’s in there
David smells like Irish Spring
Adam uses Old Spice every day
Elodie might have the fragrance of freshly burnt incense on her constantly
Tapp stinks like his clothes make that peeling sound everytime he gets up from his 37 year old, leather detective office chair
Jane seems like a overly sweaty upscale Hollywood diva who takes daily trips to the spa to keep fresh
Felix smells like every girl desires, he uses antibacterial cleanser, mildly masculine antiperspirant/deodorant, sprinkled baby power down where it counts, Dolce & Cabanna Light Blue spritzed on his torso, neck and wrists (not rubbed together), and a lightly product inspired easy to run your fingers through hair that smells like ginger and sandlewood with hints of vanilla
Nea is scentless since she’s the entity😌
...also, Nea’s my bestie, and I don’t agree with the “nEA sTinKs aNd nEveR sHowErS” player-crafted lore stereotype... not knockin anyone if they do, tho. jus sayin

In fairness, I love me some Midwich as Spooky Myers too. And I find I can compete effectively on the Swamp maps as well. Half the McMillian and Auto Wreckers are favorable. Yamoka are neutral as they provide plenty of sneak up terrain. Aside from the Rotten Fields, even the Cold Wind Farms are possible, albeit hard.
The only maps I absolutely hate and cannot do well with a Spooky Myers are Crotus Penn and Grave of Glenvale.
100% agree, especially with Crotus & Dead Dawg... Backwater’s a bit large, but the atmosphere works well. Coldwind is a li’l too tricky for me to pull it off successfully; prefer not ever having those maps with Myers.
I also really enjoy him on Hawkins, though most players don’t seem to wanna use him there. I’ve only faced 3 spooky Myers at the Lab.
-
Not a boring combo.
Unfortunate as it becomes 2 early empty perk slots for killers when survivors actually play smart at the start of the match.
-
Can’t argue against that
Ash would be higher had they not added stipulation to Mettle.
I do agree with bumping Nancy and Cheryl up a couple tiers
-
Whenever I see the Lerys/Gideon as the last offering on the right, I automatically mentally prepare myself for a Jumpscare Myers match.

Im wondering if the killer can see the hair bug. i was hiding in the locker and the hairs were floating outside the locker i couldnt stop laughing
😆 There was another post last week about Nea with super flowy green hair. I’ve yet to see any of this luxurious length in-game, tho
...can’t wait! Hope it happens to meee🥳
