    First, sorry, I quoted you by mistake. Second, the escape rate was not only the escapes of the "pro player", but his whole team of randoms in those 50 SoloQ games.

    Even tho, I agree with your last statement.

    I didn't say escape more often I said win more often like overall as a team not just personal escapes

    Image with numbers written in it about a killer doing great without any source or explanation: Aha! This totally proves that killers are OP. Stop with the propaganda already, killer mains!

    Pro player playing 50 SoloQ games live in stream and getting a 65.5% escape rate among all survivors by playing well and as a teammate: This is proof of nothing because * insert twisted logic here *…

    Another day in the DbD community.

    The image doesn't prove anything and the pro player is going to win more often because they are better, the statistics are too narrow and too unsupported to be applied to the masses

    Even best case scenario its just interesting statistics assuming everything lines up but its nothing to balance the game around for either side of the argument in either case

    I'm so sorry that the post that you made on a public forum was noticed by a general user of the public forum. maybe if you weren't making ridiculous arguments such as "my ability to lie proves everyone else a liar" it would have gone under the radar.

    The dude DM'ed me screenshots of his nightlight on reddit so I believe him. You explicitly and openly were inventing things for the sole purpose of casting doubt on some numbers you found inconvenient. I would have had so much more respect for you if you'd just said "yeah I don't see enough proof" instead of going the extra mile to ms paint a new graphic.

    Heres your reddit gold for having an argument from your point of view without providing the evidence you actually had but not sharing it for some reason????

    Survivors must participate in normal gameplay as defined as things that progresses their goal of escape. Healing and using items is normal gameplay. Deliberately throwing themselves at a killer is not.

    I think the devs are cautious about explicitly stating that survivors must reveal themselves to a killer when there is no reasonable chance of escape because that would attract a lot of blowback. They’ve been pretty skittish about their positioning on certain playstyles since Patrick said survivors who loop for 5 gens but still end up on hook or dead aren’t skilled players. It’s also why there’s no reveal mechanic or whatever to expose immersed survivors. They allow slugging and tunneling and camping, which are legitimate playstyle. But so is immersion.

    They don't have to throw themselves at the killer but they can't hide around the map for minutes on end, I had 2 survivors hide for 15 minutes, recorded it, reported them, then got notifications that action was taken because its just against game rules to do nothing and hold the other side hostage.

    There's an upper limit to how long you can hide around and do nothing, you have to start pressuring gens or doing something to progress the match or you are just holding it hostage.

    Ideally something like this just gets a mechanic to draw a line for us instead so it no longer has to be a reportable issue or a possibility for bitter survivors. Removing this as an outlet means less support time wasted, and less annoying "plays".

  • I mean math wise they need to test out every combination meaning each iteration should have to try more combinations than the last, having 5 characters means you need to try out 10 combinations but having 10 means you need to try out 45 combinations, each new killer creates a massive potential work and test load for it. Unironically the current number of combinations (including Dracula) is 666 depending on how much work each of those combinations need to both work with each other and not break any other interactions mean this could take a while

    Do you even read some of the stuff you are typing. "Tons of prep they could do to have better odds". The game shouldnt require you to prepare significantly to have a chance at escape especially if the Devs claim that players should at all situations feel like they have an option. But your claiming, no it is fine for survivors to be in zero agency situations when they don't have a key. Which is basically the only "prep" option you really are offering aside form standing at a gate with Sole Survivor and Wake up. Nothing else resolves this issue and to do that you have to be willing to give up two perks which could be better suited to aiding your team mates, as well as have perks from pay wall characters. Its just bad design.

    As for your finding chest reasoning its quite silly. Especially since you talk about how useful a key is with the right add ons to offer looping potential. Yet you think bringing two perks that are basically worthless other wise instead of bringing things that could help progress gens or loop. Just seems a bit counter to what you are trying to argue. Let alone even if you had both perks both of which are range restricted so you pretending that you would instantly know where they are is over the top. The hatch one sits at 32 feet. Which isn't much further then when you would hear the thing. You still have to traverse the map to find the chest as the perk has a range on it, as well as the hatch itself. Which puts you at risk of being found by the killer. Because you are on a time crunch so walking is not going to be the best route for that. You also have to factor in that you are assuming that the spawning of the hatch is always in a fortune place which is not true let alone the new chest. Furthermore if it was a feature that was added killers would have reason to check near the hatch or chest if they happen to notice one at a place it wasn't before. The risk/reward for a chest spawning that has a key is significant enough that Its not really a silly idea.

    As for the gates spawning on opposite sides it creates reason for killers to have to move. As of now its far too common that a killer can stand in a single spot and watch both gates. It creates both highs and lows, your argument that the current system is more fair is irrelevant, the argument is do both side of the players have agency. And with how it currently is there is far too many situations in which survivors have none, unless you have to plan out entire builds on the prospect of your entire team dying which in turn hinders your own team even more.

    Killers complained that with the old hatch system that if they performed poorly, they felt they didnt have any agency in the match. And devs said sure we feel that players should always feel like they have an option available and removed that element. Even though if they had all 5 gens pop at that point and all survivors alive they have basically lost you claim that they still could manage something. The only thing that they can do is down someone and face camp them in hopes survivors try to be autistic and make mistakes. And as the match continues to wear on options for survivors kiting diminishes as the pallet count drops. The Devs felt that if you are in end game collapse you should be able to secure a kill no matter what even if you have kills. Its a system they added to give killers more agency whether they already have some or not and by then even downing someone shouldnt be overly difficult as most resources should have been exhausted. But if survivors are given situations where they don't have any options they just have to wait out the timer or give up which creates more negative experiences within the game itself.

    But if a survivor is in a situation where the killer has done everything well. They don't get the luxury of having tons of possible solutions. The killer can slug in hopes of buying 4 more mins of looking for the survivor. The devs removed the ability for the survivor to leave giving their teammates the chance at escape. They also can drop the dying survivor over and over in hopes that the survivor will work with the killer to give the location of that last play. Despite this being against the rules as it is a reportable aspect of play. No the survivors have to rely on a lucky hatch spawn, or that the killer is not one with crazy mobility and The killer chooses the wrong door. Unless they want to come into the match significantly weaker then their teammates as they have to bring 2 perks at minimum to help get the door open faster. And even that is hard countered by 1 perk from the killer. Regardless of what you think, there is plenty of situations that without and preparedness are not good for the survivor. And the fact that you have to go through all of that to just prevent that situation from occurring. When it should in fact be addressed by the developers because it goes against their design philosophy unless they want to openly admit that their claim for player agency was only intended for killers.

    Agency isn't the ability to have an equal chance of winning a 1v1 in dbd, agency is having a chance every step along the way

    If you want the fourth survivor to have a free win if the killer doesn't slug say so but I don't agree at all

    What an inane way of thinking. Hatch is RNG dependant unless you bring a offering which means you are anticipating losing. Bringing a key is also anticipating you are losing, Finding a key in RNG dependant. Door Spawn is RNG and creates 0 Agency situations. This is not you had every chance to get out. This is if you are lucky you might get out. There isnt skill expression. There isnt player agency.

    If we use your thought process then lets bring back old hatch. Why should the killer get to have a chance at kills if they spent the entire match chasing someone. But they do and whats worse is if they do down that player. The game rewards them in the end game by removing features that would allow that player to potentially escape like the anti face camp system, or certain perks, Because as the devs have said "Player agency is important". But only if that player is the Killer, Seeing as how survivors can be put into zero agency situations.

    The solutions for this is simple too either:
    -They should when end game collapse starts. Spawn another chest that will 100% have a key that they can use. Which doesnt spawn near the gates.

    Or

    -Code in it so that the gates have to be opposite sides of the map.

    Or

    -Make it so that hatch spawns furthest away from the gates.

    Any one of these gives the survivor a greater chance. Though id argue that perks like No way out should also be disabled when you are in a 1v1 situation in the end game as it's a 0 Player agency situation regardless. Its silly to argue that its fine for survivors to have 0 agency moments, but killers are not allowed to have them.

    Hatch spawn being random means its close to a ~40 - 50% chance to find it depending on the killer before they do, bringing an offering almost always means if they have mobility the killer closes the hatch unless you also have a key

    Keys are strong items blood amber + prayer beads on a skeleton key is 22.5s of aura reading, which can absolutely destroy line of sight based 50/50s and a lot of mindgames, you don't need one to anticipate losing you can instead just bring one of the strongest items in the game.

    Key odds from a chest are 1% for skeleton key and 1% for a purple key, (without any perks) so its still a chance to get a key and escape, much like a 4% its a last ditch effort but its still part of the overall so it is included..

    Door spawn rng does not create 0 agency because if you see a close door spawn there is another strategy you can employ with the hatch which is to wait at a door until the killer finds the hatch to open them, if the hatch is far enough from both doors or if the killer goes to the wrong one first even if its a good spawn you will get out, especially with certain perks

    Its not a free chance to get out every time but importantly its a chance

    Old hatch was silly because it was a chance to win before you should win

    Antifacecamp doesn't exist in endgame because theres just nothing else to do anymore, you don't have gens to go defend, by the time most chases are finished and survivors are hooked in endgame both doors are 99ed, you can't expect a a killer to just say well this was fun have a good escape and leave the hook to go chase someone by a 99ed door

    Free key when endgame collapse begins is silly because there already are 3 perks to easily find chests and one of them even finds the hatch, how fun is a hatch race then defending the doors when the survivor in the background instantly finds the chest then instantly finds the hatch without any interaction (not very)

    Doors on the opposite sides of the map are just very survivor sided having door rng be more of a coin flip is just more fair for both regular gameplay and for endgame 1v1

    If hatch spawns furthest from gates a new standoff will occur where a killer just stands on top of hatch till they see the survivor on top of it being predictable because its in a near set spot just triangulate the doors

    All of these changes just say "if you don't slug for the 4k and leave things up to chance I want a better chance of winning" which is silly because all that will happen is the real thing that takes away agency will occur (slugging for the 4k so none of these changes matter most of the time)

    Survivors already had tons of chances and tons of prep they could have done to help give them better odds in these situations on top of just "winning" the game the point of these situations is that it semi rewards the killer with odds in their favor for likely not slugging for the 4k

  • It would probably go in order of release and dlc when availible, so next batch would probably be hag doctor and spirit

  • Ah yes a run to a corner and get bled out enjoyer instead of just a menial change that makes edge case matches less frustrating

  • Well what do you do

    You lost 3 teammates and they didn't slug for the 4k probably

    You lost the hatch race

    You didn't bring of find a key

    They get a good door spawn

    They got into a good spot to defend both doors

    You lost but you had a bit of a chance every step along the way without forcing the killer to go out of their way to force a 4k

    Problem becomes if you buff anything down this list the prospect of just slugging for the 4k becomes an even better option for securing 4ks

  • I feel like the classes wouldn't be balanced for lights out, the gen class giving 4% for a successful skill check is on paper is just 20% faster gen speed, and having a sprint burst in a game mode where tracking is nearly non existent means as soon as you see someone they slink back into the shadows and you have to hope to find them again.

    Their other effects are nothing to scoff at either because finding gens and showing gens that you are working on is very strong and having windows of opportunity + mft + teammates getting sprint burst all add up

    The other ones are niche but just giving survivors the classes are they are now wouldn't even be close to balanced

    lightborn counters: residual manifest, blastmine, flashbang, flashlights, firecrackers, champion of light, and any other perk that produces flashlight. Franklin’s counters all survivor items.

    Ah you forgot the distinction between hard counter and soft counter, distortion hard counters aura perks and addons while most of those still have secondary effects that aren't fully hardcountered

    Hardcounters, residual manifest active ability, flashlight, champion of light

    Softcounters, flashbang, firecracker (still deafen)

    "counters" blastmine since it stuns the same duration it doesn't really do anything to counter it

    Franklins doesn't hard counter items off the bat you need to hit the survivor and even then any recharge perks can still get value and any items that have already gotten value have well already been used. You can't tell me it counters the toolbox used right at the start of the match.

    So ~3 real hard counters and the rest are just neutered, and a perk that actually requires you to activate it, so lets compare that to distortion

    Hardcounters, awakened awareness, bittermurmur, bloodwarden, bbq, darkness revealed, friends till the end, gearhead, grim embrace, im all ears, undying, lethal persuer, lightborn, nemesis, nowhere to hide, Alien instinct, floods of rage

    Softcounters, deerstalker, eruption, retribution

    Ill stop halfway but these are just the perks and usually killers run ~1-2 information perks / addons which then are then usually hard countered by the 1 perk slot that didn't require anything to activate, and doesn't require any effort to get more.

    ”1 perk shouldn’t have the power to counter so many perks and add ons.” See lightborn, see Franklin’s, see sloppy butcher, see… etc.

    Lightborn 2, franklins technically none since the question didn't specify items and flashbangs don't have durability so its a soft counter, sloppy butcher doesn't counter healing perks at all because counter like how distortion does implies that you would be physically unable to heal not reduce healing speed

  • @Aven_Fallen said:

    IMO there are two ways to nerf Weave Attunement and still keep it decent:

    • Let it only show the Aura while the Item has charges.
    • Or - no Aura is shown when the Survivor is crouching and they get information where the Item is.

    Number 1 would weaken the synergy with Franklins. Which would be fine IMO. They could buff it to compensate for it.

    Number 2 would provide meaningful counterplay and, even more important, gives a way to actually locate the Item. Knowing that Weave Attunement is in play is nice, but you will have to perform some form of triangulation to actually find it.

    The main problem is anyway that the counterplay is pretty bad, since it still gives huge value to the Killer (Aura Read two times, Oblivious and a big time sink) and that Survivors who want to perform the counterplay might not be able to do so, since they dont know where the Item is.

    You do realize that with the first change based on the way the perk works is that it just wouldn't function on its own almost at all right?

    The perk causes a survivor to drop their item when it loses all charges, so now the effect of the perk by itself is

    Survivors drop their items when they become depleted for the first time, if they pick the item up they get oblivious, if there is an item on the ground with charges survivors have their aura revealed within 12m of the item, aka a nothing burger of a perk

    Second one is fair enough though how can you expect to find a key in grass your teammate dropped when you weren't looking

With average skill check odds of 12.5s and getting a 4% bonus this means you complete gens in ~70s, if people spread out and sit on gens those are insane speeds that can very easily have the gates powered in ~4-5 minutes

    The Steam player count went from 50k (pre 2v8) to 100k, then back down to 50k within 48 hours of the mode's release. It'd be a different story if they maintained that number but they didn't.

    Actually thats not 48 hours of the modes release thats ~6 hours after when the largest portion of the player base goes offline they they do every single day aka you looked at bedtime, a better comparison would be to look at the peak

    then look at the peak 48 hours after release

    Fell for the ol bedtime gambit, gotta look a bit more closely at that zoomed out data

    now alternatively you could have said its already lost ~75% of what it gained by comparing it to todays peak, which is a fair point

    But its still up by 12k on top of the increase from the midchapter release which went from ~40k to 50k which is still more overall players

    the peaks are still 10k higher on average

    Yes because there's an event currently going on.

    its still an overall larger playerbase

    No, it isn't. Most of these players won't stick around past the event. This happens any time there's a major content drop in any game ever. Casual players come for the event, play a little while, and then the numbers gradually sink back down to what they were before when the event is over.

    and higher than it would average before, idk if you can read charts but so far so good on an average increase lets see how another week does (probably the same result)

    I'm fluent in statistics.

    Make event permanent, average playerbase is now higher because the biggest event since nemesis came out is now a permanent fixture. Ez

    No. Because as you can see from your own chart, these surplus players have already had their fun and are leaving again.

    There's a pretty clear downward trend following the peak on the 26th July:

    Not counting the first two as outliers the peaks are still 10k higher on average then they were before and the slumps are still 8k higher than they were before, its still an overall larger playerbase and while it might trend downward it was still a larger surge and higher than it would average before, idk if you can read charts but so far so good on an average increase lets see how another week does (probably the same result)

    No offense but that's a load of waffle and completely random numbers.

    Ok then ill just give you the charts and you make an assumption

    Do you think they would be upset if you got rid of the game mode for the sake of your "queue times"

    Lol. It's not any more selfish than the people saying everyone else should tolerate longer queue times because they want 2v8.

    Realistically 1/2 the players isn't 2x the queue time, queues aren't that bad incentives are nice and the game is in a better spot for average queues, on top of that 2v8 has averaged 50% increase in players over the last 7 days, so that split player base is now 75% / 75% of what it once was. If you think 75% of the player base shouldn't have fun so you can queue ~10% faster be my guest but it sounds pretty selfish.

    God forbid people actually like regular DbD and don't just hop on to play a couple of times a year when a modifider changes the fundamentals of how the game works.

    Think about how selfish this take is. Tons of people are loving 2v8 and even prefer it over 1v4, but you don't want them to have that game mode because of how it affects your queue time.
