  • Your not wrong.. but it just may be that it's working as intended.. keeps you in a zone that your skill level belongs. 4 is your current high end so you should have a challenge there... Maybe instead of giving you just killers you can outplay to pip, it will give you just worse teammates to even out the overall skill level being brought to the table.. same when your on catch-up from your low end rank but reversed. All just conjecture of course, but this fluctuation happens to me as well.

  • Thanks bubba!

  • *been dropped 5 times out of like 30 matches, not 'every' time

  • Running discordance doesn't mean your not able to find anyone, it's just smart. Why would you NOT want to stop survivors from ripping a gen in 30 seconds? I don't agree with the "beggining and end" game usage since survivors will double team a gen whenever they are able, regardless of what stage the game is in. I also run BBQ and gearhead and swim in the river of salty tears post game XD. Discordance may not be a must like BBQ, but it's definitely worth a perk slot in my opinion.

  • Yeah I've gotten stuck a few times and honestly I should have learned after the first one lol, most killers I've run into including seeing this myself as killer, will down you then drop you to get healed.. then there are those ppl that you can feel they're unheard laughter as they count you as a free hook while they leave you there all match while playing a 1v3 with glee. Anyway I'm sure they are working on it.. be patient, roll with the punches. Dbd has its ups and downs on both sides but in the end we all love it and continue to subject ourselves to these kind of quirks because it's super fun, no matter what side you play.

  • Since I made this post I've read and taken into consideration all the replies, then really thought about what I was doing in game. I floated at rank 8 to 10 for a long while playing like I do untill considering the feedback and actually running into a match as survivor vs someone playing quite similar to me. I knew they were pretending just to be nice and it went too far and became boring. I've since altered my view to this: I'll still never camp or tunnel if I can help it, I pay attention to what characters are in the lobby and try my best to rotate hooks, but I no longer pull any punches. If I'm playing well and I get them.. then I'm just outclassing them and shouldn't feel bad.. I'll give slight breaks, but nothing overt. Since I've adopted this mindset I've gotten to rank 4 and pretty much just fluctuate there. Never been a red rank before and TBH it feels good. Plus I get better teams more often and don't FEEL like I have to cut slack. Thank you all for helping me find a better place to exist in this game.. a place with the balance I've been looking for. Not gonna lie, I'm curious if I can get to rank one now.. but if I do, it will be through fair skill and not by playing what I consider to be badly.

    Dude, game is not about the points. You are the killer, and you have to kill. They are survivors, and they need to survive. ######### anyone care about points? Game objective is in the name Kill-Survive while outsmarting each other. If you wonna be Mr.NiceGuy play some MMO and sit in corner of map whole day, nobody will bother you there.

    Points should not matter at all, and yet we have points, because developers are too scared to not give players something to earn. You know, like in F2P games - you are constantly "given" something to keep you invested and engaged. To keep your mind busy, so you can be sucked in and spend money. Sadly, this game have F2P structure.

    It is sad, because IMHO game is good enough to have great playerbase without this #########. I would play for fun, im trying, still, but its so freaking hard with this grind and points in every screen of the game. Challenges, points, webs, score, im spending points to get more points to spend more points to unlock freaking skills i want... Oh, ######### off, i just wonna play and have fun. Ont top of that a lot of my games and time was wasted because of points, when killer with survivors were farming, and i just wanted to play. :/

    Anyway, you should wake up, because its not about the points. And if you care so much, damn, play Pacman or something, this game is all about points and High Score.

    I see your "point" lol, yes fun comes first o agree.. but the fact is.. without BP's you simply cannot progress your character. If everything was immediately accessable to everyone then your bloodied up t3 with a perkset from 4 different characters that you worked for so long get would have infinitely less value...

  • Forget the points and perks and sweating over your rank for those who care about that.. The people who have stressed and sweated and worked they're a$$es off to offer this game to us have inadvertantly created a niche in gaming the likes of which could never be duplicated. I don't believe I can express my love for this game, or the ppl I've played with any better than that.. thank you everyone, truly.

  • I'm sorry everyone.. I feel my main point has been eclipsed and lost. Let me simplify what I'm attempting to get at...

    After playing for so long I recognize this unspoken thing that happens sometimes.. like a sudden rivalry in good spirits when two players with experience come together in this game and the normal everyday Chase becomes something else.. like a recognition of skill and respect that I feel only players that have invested long hours can recognize in game.. no matter how hard I try I can't properly explain it but I know that this feeling CANT just be happening to me.

    I realize it probably sounds crazy. And it's rare that it happens.. but it's there.

    It ain’t nobody fault when survivors want to act all cute with their keys teabagging and crutch perks then turn around and cry cuz killers camp tunnel and bring moris

    Lmao,.. so true. I love when I get tea bagged cuz they think they're really good when in actuality I could have sent them back to the campfire without even the change to buy a grey offering 🤣

    Wow, another person who missed the point. Ok about bps.. I said 60-80k did I not? Yeah 64 falls in that range.. and I'm not farming them, or letting them farm me lol.. I'm trying to let everyone feel they had a worthwhile game and get point.. as for troll... Yeah I don't even know what to say to that dude. XD

    And please don't pretend to enlighten me on the premise of the game. The very reason for this thread is to find people that get it on a deeper level that you obviously haven't grasped yet. GG

    You can at most get 64k without offerings. Try again troll. And saying "Wow you guys arent just letting the survivors farm to get a lot of points". Its a competition between 2 teams. One team tries to fufill their objective(Escaping, surviving and doing gens) the other tries their objective(Stopping the survivors from completing their objectives, usually by killing them). Thats the game in short, and how you go about playing the game is up to you , but those are the objectives. If you personally wanna ruin games for survivors that actually wanna play and not just farm. Then you go ahead and play your game. You are allowed to play like you want, despite it being really annoying for a lot of people.

    And yes I deliberately spelled it out like that for you. At least with camping, the games are over fast for that guy and something did happen in the game instead of trying to kill people with boredom.

    I don't understand what is it that you do. You stand in the corner of the map for the duration of the match? Or do you mean if you steamroll survivors too hard you take yourself away from generators so they can get points? If it's the latter I do that too. I do want to point out a perfect game is 32k so with BBQ the highest points you can get while playing a regular blood point offering is somewhere around 64-66k With the event full of 100%offerings you can get up to 200k bp's.

    Unless it's a team of red ranks I've been playing long enough to know what ppl are doing without my perks lol. It's become easy for me. I know without a doubt that I am in control of the match before it starts. Normally I'll have like 3 hurt before a gen pops.. if I find I've hooked like 2 and no gens are done cuz they're scrambling around trying to save/ heal.. I'll back off. If someone quits ( which is the the worst thing a survivor can do imo cuz they're selfish childishness just screwed 3 other ppl) I'll hook everyone twice, kick gens blah blah, but let them go. I'm in no way a sorry, if it's a good match and the survivors are skilled then game on, it's murder time lol.. it's just I rarely find a challenge anymore so I challenge myself in odd ways.

  • Thanks for all the responses, I feel I was too vague maybe and couldn't convey quite what I was trying to, but it's all good. As long as I can still find a match I'll be here with the rest of you. Next time a t3 Leatherface hits you in the first 15 seconds of the game, revs the saw, and turns away to kick the gen you just started before running off to the next gen ignoring you.. it may just be me XD

    Long live Dbd and those who love it!

  • @Vox_Nocturne said:

    I play within my own preferences, so I do act aggressively. However, if someone has just been unhooked the most I do to that survivor is down them again. I won't rehook them though. I always chase the unhooker, unless it's down to 1-2 gens, in which case I believe that's a fair time to sacrifice them - but again I won't tunnel.

    I do play with a sense of humour. Recently I was chasing a very skilled Nea, and after we got to a jungle gym we stared at each other, I went to a nearby crown podium and took it, then pretended to be out of breath. She said she found it funny in post-game chat.

    It's important to me to play in a style that everyone can enjoy. At the same time, I find it dull when playing as a survivor and it's just constant farming. I want to play a threatening killer in-game, not a buddy to survivors. So I play as well as I can within those confines.

    Agreed, when I back off I'll go somewhere out of sight and give them a break.. if I get run by a good survivor and they stun me or consistently dodge my attacks.. I'll let them know they've bested me in good humor by circle sawing in true Leatherface form lol.. maybe w a pallet chop at the end or whatever... But I know they know I respect they're skill in that moment.. it's the survivors that stay to watch and recognize what's happening on a baser level.. even stopping and looking at each other over a loop.. things like that.. in that moment. You both remember exactly why you keep playing Dbd.

    lets say you get a perfect game and get 32000 plus the bbq stacks thats 64000 then the beast of prey points which is 4000 that adds up to 68000 points. Im not positve because i haven't played in a while but im pretty sure you need to kill people to get the 32000 because of the sacrifice points

    Never did the exact math but I've seen the end numbers often enough, unless I run into an in game team of good players.. those numbers are accurate with no kills.

  • It's not "the point" of "killing them all" or "escaping" it's something deeper that I've found with other veterans of this game. It's a feeling... A knowing. It's unexplainable. Those that know will understand.

  • @metalklok said:

    the point of being a killer is to kill them not let them farm and you say you can get out of a match with 60-100k points is that because of 4th ani cakses because in that case i can get around 150k+

    Perfect example of someone who hasn't the slightest clue of what I'm talking about.

  • I should also say that pulling 100k requires me to have some sort of point offering on top of the perks I run with an excellent match. 60-80k on average is more accurate. But that can be something as simple as a yellow hunting or brutality.. it's really not hard.

  • It's like a comraderie thing I feel for good players.. that's what I'm really asking about I guess, not the points or camping etc... But the players that can recognize what's going on without any communication.. not quite sure how to find the right words.

  • @burt0r said:

    Well I myself only play killer but know that camping and tunneling aren't fun. So I just play for bp (always BBQ) and try to double hook everybody while providing excitement for the survivors.

    I feel that I won when I managed to double hook everybody and then down 1 or 2 for the other to heal so I don't mind them leaving.

    But if they take their sweet time and stop going to progress the game, I start killing them and pretty often open the doors so the games come to an end.

    Yes. He gets it.

  • You'd literally be disgusted at how many points I'm getting with everyone popping gateaus.

    No sir, my points come from beast of prey and BBQ, and playing well. Offerings have nothing to do with it. The longer survivors are alive.. the more point opportunities you have as killer.
