I know for a fact they announced the flashlight changes.

And how is the generator sound a killer buff? I can't hear the gens at all half the time.

in I love how official communication in this game is broken Comment by Yung_Slug September 27, 2020

I used Tombstone Piece because my DH always breaks. And the one time I build around it breaking... I actually got to do the quest as intended before it broke. Even named myself "DevourHopeWillBreak" or something like that and the game made it work for once just to prove me wrong.

in Extincion of Hope - Improbable Challenge Comment by Yung_Slug September 27, 2020

I love Open Handed as is, but I'll admit that it could use a buff. Up the Ante should just be reworked entirely.

They also need to try again with Mindbreaker because a few more seconds of exhaustion ain't it.

in Name immersive survivor content creator, streamer pls Comment by Yung_Slug September 27, 2020

A year later and they finally buffed the perk. In the wrong way. Honestly, unless they remove that extra requirement, the exhaustion duration would have to be ridiculously long for this perk to be good, and I don't like the side of the perk they're pushing anyway. It should make you choose between waiting out your exhaustion or doing a gen, not just give you exhaustion right away.

Because cancelling his M2 has no counterplay. That should be a long cooldown. He also shouldn't cancel out survivor perks.

The absolute AUDACITY of the devs to add a killer that can counter broken survivor perks. Not like survivors have perks that counter entire killer powers.

Spine chill is NOT an aura perk.
As i said kindred is good for solo que.
Bond is... niche, by itself it's not a bad perk, but not worth taking over things like dead hard, unbreakable or even prove thyself. The only perk that it overthrows is selfcare... and selfcare is an overrated perk.

Did you miss the part where I said "almost entirely"?

Also, you never mentioned Kindred before in this thread.

I'm supposed to believe that you run:
Aftercare, Better Together, Deja Vu, wake up?
Bond and empathy are niche perks, but if i had to choose i would go with bond.
Detectives hunch and all perks that show killers aura are the only good aura perks, but still fairly situational.

Yes because solo que will use 2nd program for voice comms. Adding in game voice chat would reduce the gap between swf and solos.
As i said only new players perceive this as survival horror game, with rare exceptions of course. Not to mention that being survival horror game does not prohibit voice chat and if it would REALLY be a problem for some players, they can always turn it off.

Not quite. Open Handed/Kindred/Bond/Spine Chill. It's surprisingly effective.

Borrowed Time is supposed to punish tunneling off the hook. If its such an issue for you them perhaps try not tunneling off the hook?
The reason those two are such common "meta" perks are because there are so few viable survivor perks they use what can actually help them. That said, most of their perks dont have any effect if you dont tunnel and camp so the issue seems to be on you here...

"Not tunneling" isn't much of an option when the unhooked guy body blocks for the person who saved him because he has BT + DS + Unbreakable. I like having perks to counter camping/tunneling, but it's annoying when they're abused outside of their intended purpose.

Get at least 100 hours in game, before you will start saying what this game needs and what not.
Like c'mon, who uses aura perks on survivors? Who plays this as a survival horror game?.. Well, except new players with 5h playtime.

I have 1.5k hours and my usual build is almost entirely aura perks. They're more useful than you think.

in New upgrade Comment by Yung_Slug September 8, 2020

I usually slug a survivor if they've been unhooked recently just because I feel bad for them, but sometimes I don't have a choice but to "tunnel" them because their teammates are all immersed.

I'm not running MYC but I've had games where survivors will go for a save and then duck into hiding, leaving the person they rescued to be found. Last time this happened, they actually started doing stuff AFTER the first survivor died (and I did not even pick that survivor up fast enough to risk DS, so they had plenty of time).

It's not that they aren't doing anything. It's just that the devs are assuming the perk not working is because of server latency. So instead of actually looking into the perk to see how they can fix it, they're just assuming the perk will somehow fix itself as they improve the server and reduce server latency.

I don't think they're assuming. It's pretty clear that it's caused by latency. The best they can do is make your client check if the dead hard successfully activated before showing you the exhaustion effect.

in Is Dead Hard Being FIxed? Comment by Yung_Slug September 4, 2020

Well it's caused by latency. When you press the button the signal needs to reach the server before it actually activates. If you get hit before that, it does nothing. I believe the exhaustion showing up is a purely visual bug that results from your side of the game THINKING you used dead hard when in reality you were hit before that.

Basically just gauges the killer's intelligence or knowledge. Many killers used to have no idea how to counter it but I think they're starting to catch on. It's called the "dumb tech", probably because it is actually pretty dumb and doesn't seem like it should ever work (yet it still does).

I need to get Corrupt on him. I'm trying, but the Entity is being a real ######### about it. I usually run BBQ right now for the BP since I am trying to blow through these level 50 bloodwebs to get Corrupt to appear. Let me know how Thrilling works out. I haven't run it much since Peanits explained a while back that gen progression is paused while Thrilling is blocking a gen.

While that's true, unless you're using Ruin you probably won't have very many regressing gens.

Actually, I have a mechanics question. How well does Infectious pan out if one is running either M&A or Dead Rabbit?

I usually run both. Tier 2 has like a 4-6 meter TR and Tier 3's infectious fright range becomes insanely large. The other two perks I run are usually Corrupt and BBQ but I've been trying out Thrilling Tremors + Pop.

I don't recall either one being the case. There were definitely sizeable groups of people in both camps who were complaining about their base kits, especially Nurse (just like there were sizeable groups of people defending those characters' base kits).

Def agreed on this statement. Should make dumb strong perks on both ends and see how it plays out. Lots of discussion on the board about making strong perks, then adjusting afterwards. It would also be a lot more fun. I saw someone on this board suggest a "BROKEN MODE" that would permanently be fixed to the game. Just broken meta with random crazy buffs to see how it shakes up the meta and what could be adjusted. Basically a permanent PTB that is just updated all the time with trial stuff/game breaking stuff until its good/balanced enough to be implemented .

Yeah I've always wanted something like that where they could actually try small suggestions from the community or ideas of their own. Sadly, I don't think they would actually do that, but one can hope.

This is true, but to be fair, the only things people are complaining about regarding Huntress is with regards to Iriheads and janky hits stemming from latency issues.

Again, that never stopped the devs before.

I doubt they're planning to nerf him after they literally just made him not garbage.

Who the hell thought visionary needed a cooldown. Compare visionary to deja vu or detective's hunch. Those aren't even good perks but visionary is clearly worst pick. Every scenario that might get value out of visionary, the other two do better.

Yeah Visionary and Zanshin tactics got cooldowns for literally no reason other than the fact that their predecessor Windows of Opportunity also had a cooldown, also for no reason.

Much like keys and perks/items that counter specific killers, it was something that looked like a good idea at the time but causes issues now that people care about this game being balanced/competitive. They're already such an iconic part of the game that getting rid of them entirely is pretty much impossible.

kinda like ddos in other games ? man you cant enjoy anything online with these type of people around :|

Kinda, but a lot easier. Lag switching only requires you to lag out your own connection. This used to be a lot more prevalent but DBD has made a lot of changes over the years that have made it less effective (for instance, dedicated servers made it so lag switching killers couldn't just get free kills from bad connection). This next patch is supposed to make it so laggy killers won't be able to hit you from really far away, so hopefully they also fix the hook issue.

only with that guy ? i hooked anothe guy and had no lag, but the cheater was imposible to hook, i know that some times you get a bit a lag and you have to start the hook action again, but this was not the case, like i tried to hook him up on a hill, he just froze me and then pushed be to the side of the map where he broke free, when i was "frozen" i could not move or look around and was just being pushed little by little

Might be lag switching then. People have been abusing that lately. They usually run no mither when they do it so you can't slug them either. Hopefully it gets fixed in the upcoming patch.

It's not fair when all survivors can know where you're at all the time, that's how it works when all survivors bring OoO. There is nothing they can do about SWF using it other than removing it all together.

Or just rework the perk to not have such an abusable ability.
