Since BHVRs business model is to acquire new players faster than players quit, hoping for serious balance changes is out of the question.
There will never be an operation health chapter, that should tell a lot about their mentality.
Think about it, Nurse is the most busted killer that you cant do anything about while having so many bugs. Why has this not changed?
Because killers good enough to use Nurse properly are few, because veteran killer players get burnt out from poor balance.
Fixing Nurses bugs would require actual balance nerfs to her, and then BHVR would need to do a massive overhaul to the killer role so that's never going to happen.
New players cant use or beat Nurse, so she can stay busted for eternity since the people who complain about her dont really matter, they've already bought a ton of chapters and cosmetics.
So since this games balance will never fundamentally change, it's fair to ask why we need a matchmaking system like this when there is no intent to follow up with meaningful balance updates.
I'm all for the concept of MMR btw, I was one of the forums biggest advocates for it back in testing.

I'm surprised you didnt mention Circle of Healing.
Considering this is an Oni perk, I dont understand why this has a cooldown. Oni is all about snowball so youd think hed be rewarded for consecutive hooks
-
It's not so much hard as it is stressful and anxiety inducing.
We play video games to have fun.

This is exactly how I have found the game.
Would the characters all be free as well, or would you need to buy them so that BHVR makes at least some money?
I think just the basecharacters +the free DLC we got on console is good enough to get someone hooked.
-
I love letting something die without making eye contact, a burning or poison killer would be dope
Before anybody thinks I'm a potential serial killer....I'm not I just used to main Teemo

I'm pretty much only gonna try those games out if they come to gamepass. I'm not invested enough to go outta my way to fork out money for similar games coz this is just a party game to me. I wonder how many other xbox people feel the same though
I feel the exact same.
I originally was more into Friday since that was released for free, and I only jumped ship after that game died.
-
Can you still Dead Hard out of RCPD?
-
I would have never touched DBD if it weren't "free" on Gamepass.
I never would have spent money on DLC for sure.
Having Jake, Feng, Claud etc. For free kept me busy for a good while, and since I never sunk money in I didnt mind picking up a couple of paid characters to expand my teachable collection
-
"Its Pinhead, oh no I have to actually try" *DC*
-
Tricky Boi is worth it alone for starstruck and NWO
if you want a fun killer then Myers. Judith's Tombstone is my guilty pleasure

NO it does not not stack

im more or less bummed that I get to deal with swfs the entire bloodhunt. So much fun to just get a bunch of 3-4 man escapes.
New here? Shoulda seen the anniversary event, it was a nuclear arms race of toxicity
-
A simple 5% base regression, and needing to work a gen for at least 2 or 3 seconds is honestly all that's needed, such a simple and easy fix.
-
Not like it really matters.
Despite what BHVR may say here, the punishment system is seen as a joke by these cheaters.
If ppl wanna cheat they can already do so with minimal financial cost.
These losers dont even try to hide their cheats, and some are kinda famous in the community. So dbd being free is a non issue, honestly.
Enjoy your time in the Fog, you Epic Gamers!

He can perform well, but so can a drunk driver;doesnt mean its healthy or okay.
I do fine with Midwich offerings or Meat plant as I use Starstruck but to me, his clunkiness makes him unfun.
I dont care about viability
-
Games unplayable without NOED. Survivors aren't interested in chases, only doing objectives so I just give them an extra one :)
OP, would you prefer that I run 4 slowdown perks? Is that not boring to you?
I want chases and interactions, if others dont want to give that to me then they're going to get a grumpy Nemesis bee lining whatever Exit Gate they tried to open.
-
After a stressful day, just slap on Lethal, BBQ, NWO and NOED and just run at people until they die.
The last survivor dying to EGC because of NWO is delicious. I love to slap the exit gate being all like "You can leave, why aren't you opening it?" While nodding my head
-
I'm kind of irritated as CoH has diminished my value from hit and run Wraith with Sloppy and Coulrophobia.
It's fine in the long run, I just switched back to Agitation Starstruck but I do miss just creating pressure by slapping people and not committing.
-
I'd honestly prefer 4 Overcomes over 4 Dead Hards.
I'm sure itll be annoying though
-
I get a decent amount of salt because of NOED, but for the most part I dont get any comments unless I play Jeryl, then suddenly the urge to spew gross transphobia comes out in full force by both survivors and killers
-
Using unbreakable is just a tool
Using Unbreakable to take a protection hit in chase? Now that can be an outplay
-
Not gonna lie, when I'm in a 3 man swf that 4th survivor is basically a resource to use much like a pallet lol.
-
Survivors have to eventually hold W to an exit gate. Crunch them with NWO and NOED
-
I dont get why it's even a metric. I dont always injure with the intent to down I just like keeping survivors busy
-
Since the algorithm to determine MMR is a wash, high mmr as a concept is meaningless anyway.
A 100 hour killer is still going to be matched against 3k hour survivors.
That was the case with the old system and nothings changed. Now you just get rewarded even more for being selfish and taking as few risks as possible which is the wrong attitude to promote.
-
I'd say he can peak at low A tier with the right perk and map setup but I think hes weaker than Demogorgon. I'd say hes on average a B tier killeer
Survivors have too much control over the box, and eith the upcoming nerfs it's going to be even harder to make use of your true potential.
That being said, Pinball has so much going on, he has to have a galaxy sized brain. I often run 1 or 2 end game perks to try and maximize his oppressiveness
-
MMR has not changed anything for the better.
In the SBMM test, my opponents were tough and I worked hard for a 2k
As it is now, matches are either 0k or 4k it feels.
The algorithm is lazy and it blows, there is literally ZERO improvement over Rank matchmaking...and that system sucked too which is why I was so happy when I participated in the SBMM Testing.
I might be crazy but the SBMM we have now is just some garbage pulled out of a dumpster. Something changed dramatically in between the test and the launch of SBMM.
-
Its projection.
I wouldn't say gg after a loss, so if you do it you are obviously flexing your victory.

if behaviour can't nerf SWF or improve SoloQ, then they're option for nerfing killers so much, that even soloQ will be able to harrass every killer.
It's really sad how allergic BJVR is towards SWF when we all know PC players use discord and consoles have Party Chat anyway, so nerfing SWF sounds incredibly idiotic to me.
It seems like a no brainer we should buff Solo Q so we can get more engaging and demanding killers like Pinhead.
I dont even buy the argument about communication barriers in Europe, even with massive communication barriers people will find a way to communicate in a basic manner. I played MMOs when I was 12 and there were BRs everywhere, I picked up barebones Portuguese lingo rather quick.

You think bhvr can make a competent AI?
The community already has created somewhat passable Survivor AI...they even say GGWP Killer!
-
Soul Guard does not work and it's not supposed to.
Cheryl's perks seem to be in tune with evil and darkness as she has endured a lot from what I hear, so it would make no sense for her ability to trigger off of holy magicks.
Boons are a Blessing, and Hexes are Curses. They are two sides of the same coin but the distinction is an important one I feel.

They really should buff his other add ons so he has variety 🤷🏻♂️
I think Chatterers is decent as it is but, I'm curious to see if the Stealth will even be remotely useful after the buff. I liked pairing it with Toeture Pillar or Iri Box, both of which are being nerfed :/
-
Give it time, people will eventually start to complain about his synergy with Lethal Pursuer and demand more nerfs
-
Kidnapping children is a federal crime and issues an Amber Alert, so do so at your own peril.
Let him go before you get near the gates
-
Depends on the map I guess. I dont feel the need to tunnel on midwich, the game or RCPD.
-
Nemesis only got better with Boons.
Ignoring Shadowstep is pretty tight, yo. And a zombie that accidentally walks near CoH is funny.

@ThiccBudhha said:
Leatherface's skill curve is underestimated by people who absolutely suck as him and never play him for anything other than Basement shenanigans. But there is no way he is easier than Billy. At least add on less.
I can respect a Buba who can outplay the Sprint Burst with no addons
It's a shame that only lazy people play him
-
@SunsetSherbet said:
Sad he's dying in a week. As is I'd rate him around high B to low A.
I'm not even sad about Engineers Feng, we all knew that nerf was coming.
But man, who seriously complained about Torture Pillar? Ugh.

MMR
You max killer mmr so easily though, so you should be getting passed around even more than my ex since there's way more survivors looking for a game

That's basically just a flashlight and how 90% of survivors use flashlights. I feel few actually bring them in to do saves. They bring them so they can do epic clickings.
The survivors will still click that light like a Boss at the pallet even if you're a Legion
I cant tell if they are gauging my skill as Legion or if they are begging to go down.

Pay-to-win killer that plays the game for you.
If you aren't just memeing, then be our guest and go into a match with that attitude. The survivors will correct that pretty quickly.
Pinheads personal chains are weaker to accommodate the Box yo begin with so if you aren't making full use of it you may as well play any other 115 killer.
Now pre nerf Spirit or DCB Spirit...sure.
-
Addon dependent killer, I dont enjoy him with no addons.
But I like how his power works. Yeah, admittedly it's fairly high risk with low reward but eh, that can be tweaked over time I guess.
My favorite part about Pinhead is his power dynamic. His personal chains are weaker and the Box is where his true power lies, and tbh I hope that doesnt change.
I enjoy working to make my power work for me.

I don’t want to force a DS activation to make OoO work as it should. And yes, FTP is a terrible perk. Why trade a health state and become broken when new WGLF practically does the same thing for free - plus the opportunity at up to double BP?
FTP can be strong, but it's a perk dependent perk just like Lucky Break which holds it back despite being strong.
Before the broken CD was 60 seconds I'd have agreed but now, it can be quite annoying if you bring a Soul Guard Dead Hard squad.

@dugman said:
FYI You left out Lery’s and Dead Dawg Saloon
A while back before the map revamps the devs released a chart of escape rates by map. It’d be interesting to see a new version of that. Consensus among streamers seems to be that Haddenfield and Baden Preschool are the most survivor biased maps (they might differ between themselves on which is worse than the other but those are the top two). Hawkins was generally considered one of the best killer maps I think too. I’m not sure off hand which is the best killer map overall now though, maybe Midwich? 🤷♂️
Definitely Midwich, no contest barring maybe a couple Killers (Billy?)
I honestly love RPD as killer too. So many killers appreciate those tight, tight hallways.

@Zozzy said:
I was running it before it was cool. It is a strong perk and will net you some extra kills if you did well enough in the match or if you pair it certain killers or perks.
I loved it from the start as well! I didnt realize that it popped instantly like NOED though, which made me sad. I'm honestly impressed BHVR buffed such an end game perk tbh
-
@WishIcouldmain said:
Instead of prioritizing hooks or teamwork you know things that make the game better. They prefer just escaping and getting kills. Which means leaving teammates behind and just camping and hard tunneling. Things that the make game less enjoyable. And gives you worse players.
Steve and Bill roleplayers get told by the MMR to pound sand and git gud but the Nea who camps hatch is playing correctly and rewarded despite potentially sandbagging a potential comeback.
-
No Way Out and NOED are staples now.
Honestly, since Boons have released I have not had a single NOED fizzle out.
Maybe everyone assumes the killer is too scared to run it now, or they assume everybody else is looking for bones as well and get careless.
Consume and adapt...
-
Even if you're the obsession, a Laurie or Zarina can steal that from you
-
The system was a lie. We were explicitly promised a system that would better identify our standings that weren't just kills/escapes as BHVR THEMSELVES said they used that system and it failed.
Whatever they were using during the SBMM was thrown out and they are back to kills/escapes, and we got a genius who quips "LMFAOOO can't quantify skill in this game lol 2hard. If you wanted to rank up after doing 8 gens and unhooking 13 survivors, maybe ya should a done that....AND escaped lol xd rekt"
I actually supported SBMM before its release and I feel like the worlds biggest idiot
