Lol knew it would be this game from earlier before I opened the thread.
Actual gameplay starts 4 seconds in, 3rd gen pops at 1:44 so 1 minute and 40 seconds for 3 gens. That means the extra 20 seconds were likely the survivors running to seperate generators.
Its not good. I feel the map is part of the problem. Rotten Fields has never been a good map. I thought they were shrinking it? It seems just as big as ever. Anyway so you have a huge map where the gens are spread out and then you have corn everywhere so you can’t see what gens are being worked on from a distance.
I don’t get why some people turn their nose up at Corrupt Intervention. That would have massively helped here. Based on how quick that went I would guess survivors started on the far gens, corrupt would have locked them off and forced the survivors inwards, which I feel would have changed the start of this game a lot.
Yeah the devs say they expect early gens to go fast but losing gens like this theres only really Billy or Nurse that can come back from that or a strong campy Hag game.

You forgot Trapper lol. When you play Trapper you expect to have 2-3 gens remaining by the time you finish your set up.

in THIS is the problem with gen speeds and early game. Comment by handfulofrain July 24, 2020

Let's see...

-The Lighthouse (2019)

-Halloween (1978)

-Texas Chainsaw Massacre (1974)

-Evil Dead 1 & 2 (1981-87)

-Nosferatu (1922)

-Saw (2004)

-Us (2019)

-Psycho (1960)

-Scream (1996)

I'm sure I missed a few, but these ate the ones that came to mind.

Find the full version of Incy Wincy Spider, the one that was featured in the credit sequence of the move 8 Legged Freaks.
I've though about doing a full on "If [Killer] Had a Theme Song" thread for a laugh and having Deathslinger have the song Pale Rider, by the Heavy Horses.

Personally for Mr. Slinger I think "Ain't No Grave" by Johnny Cash is the best choice

if a survivor is bold enough to do a gen in your face that means your prescense as killer is garbage. any killer that is "sweating" no survivor is going to ######### with them after they get their ass handed to them the first time.

Otz and Tru3 are garbage then? Interesting.

in Soo when is ds rework coming? Comment by handfulofrain July 24, 2020

The perk is fine in theory. The only thing that needs changed is the fact that you can jump into a locker (or sit on a gen, etc.) in the killer's face and they can't do anything about it. That's lame.

in Soo when is ds rework coming? Comment by handfulofrain July 24, 2020

It would be hard to do if there's no movie (or drawing, I guess) adaptation to go with it.

The closest I want to go to that is Jack and Wendy Torrence from The Shining.

As soon as you said power bar i was out. Hes the trapper. He places traps. He doesnt need a power bar as his ability is already limited by tge number of traps he has and how long it takes to place those. All he needs is for his traps to spawn slightly cliser together, allow him to carry 2 at base and buff the trap setting speed by a quarter to a half of a second. Thats it, hes golden.

Hard agree.

For balance? Sort of vague reason imo.
Has it been tested? What sort of imbalance does it create? He still has to set them up around the map, I just honestly do not see a reason for it in the current meta. I have never seen any legit reason for it and just started to p3 him and find it makes me want to run perks that stall the beginning of the game, whereas I never do that on other killers including Hag. I have played my hag to p3 in red ranks and just see it as awkward to have to run around map to get traps and then set them when hag starts out with all ten.

However, I've seen it argued that the reason Hag starts with all of her traps is because her traps don't directly cause damage/stall a survivor. Trapper's bear traps do.

That wasn't a direct answer to your question haha. It was a qualifier for my next statement :)

@DrDeepwound said:
Can anyone even provide a valid reason for him to not start out with ALL his traps?

For balance reasons, if they did this I think the max capacity without a bag should be 2.

Rank 1 Trapper main.

600 employees is plenty to maintain a game such as this. Dota 2 has a very small development team, 40-50 people total, and embarrasses this game with the amount of updates and the size of said updates. CS:GO has a 30-40 person dev team and likewise outdoes DBD. The only reason BHVR doesn't do more balance changes is because they're unwilling to do so.
*BUT we got SO MANY other stuff added to the game:*
Any survivor addition is just a slightly new model, textures, and voices. They all function the same, and likely they have a base model they make minor changes to for each new survivor. Art wise it's a day or two of work, then you have voice acting and programming and it's done. The killers take more work because they actually impact the game with their power, look unique, and move in unique animations, so that's fair. But, there are a lot of poorly balanced additions, especially when it comes to perks, add-ons, and maps. And any time something is poorly balanced it either gets ignored or takes ages to even have a minor change unless it is an extreme example such as MoM.
Lampkin Lane is a map released in 2016 and is still horribly balanced garbage that everyone knows is horribly balanced. Trapper has been a dumpster tier killer since the game's release. And as I've emphasized every day, 90% of perks are worthless and rightfully go completely ignored and unused.
Sure the devs are pushing new stuff out every couple months, but it's still poorly balanced stuff. Their QUALITY is bad, even if their quantity is high, and more and more people are calling them out on it as time goes on. Even their own fog whisperers are finding it hard to keep their mouths shut. The devs spend more time getting hold of licenses and going through legal channels to add licensed stuff than they do making sure the balance of what they add is good, and that's the problem.
Covid is no excuse when it's only existed for a few months while balance issues have existed for years unchanged (like Trapper and Wraith, both launch killers, being extremely low tier killers). There's no reason for you to defend them so staunchly, you're not on their payroll and anything I say will ultimately make no impact on them. Likely, not a single dev beyond at most a community manager will ever even glance at my posts. The corporation that made over $100 million last year doesn't need you to protect them from my mean words.

Dude, please stop. You're making yourself sound like more and more of an ass with each response.

in What is your favorite survivor and killer build with at least one meta perk? Comment by handfulofrain July 19, 2020

I really hope not for a myriad of reasons.

Mainly because CW shows are terribly written and acted, and I think we should strive to have good quality media in the game.

I'm not saying that I am at all an Immersed player, I'm not. I just play stealth.

"I jUsT plAY SteAlth"

Stealth and immersion are the same thing. Boring for killers, annoying for your teammates. Do something.

Bro, your survivor main has been showing full force the last few days. Chill.

Anytime a killer gets changed for the better the devs "cater to killers". Anytime survivors get changed it's just "needed balance!!!! >:( xD git gud rawr"

Never said they were worse than Clown.
But they are definitely in the bottom three.

No no, someone else did. I forgot to say that lol

But yes, they, Clown and Wraith all need some love.

Hopefully we get a new power for them instead of Deep Wounds.
