  • I ignore it since a lot of time it's just people blowing off steam and the really toxic stuff I simply report them for the mods to whack em.

    I remember trying to solve one of those.

  • That's what map offerings are for and you probably don't complain when you get a map that favors you though right?

    Solo: bond, kindred, open handed, small game.
    SWF: resilience, adrenaline, borrowed time, small game/iron will

    My advice: drop SC, it's a waste of time which could be invested on working on gens.

    The funny thing is killers complain about survivors gen rushing and not healing then using AD while forgetting they wanted SC nerfs and got them. Oh and then run Sloppy and Thana with it.

  • As a Spirit main no even though I'd love to be able to be more op than nurse it's just not needed nor going to happen. Her 15 sec cd is fine and the only time you should be draining the entire bar is running across the map.

  • @AshleyWB said:
    Jack the ripper is not way way earlier thsn huntress. Maybe a little but not way way.

    Well Jack the ripper is Victorian era England 19th Century 1888 and Huntress was around the time of WWI and Germany didn't enter the Red Forest area until 1917 ish.

    So it's around 30 years between the two killers making their appearances.

    Spirit > Nurse

    Spirit has the best mindgame potential.

    This man gets it 👍

    I main Spirit and a good Spirit is an absolute terror to play against because they know how to mind game so well and they're never predictable.

  • @Poweas said:

    That's why I tried to suggest a cooldown but it wouldn't work out.

    Yeah I'm not sure how you'd avoid that and as @Peanits pointed out other killers could cheese it as well and it's one of those perks that's tough to balance.

  • I love this map and it doesn't matter which character I play it's a fun map and for all the people complaining about survivors picking this. I'm sure as killers you never choose Gideon's as Doctor or Lery's as Mirror Myers right.

  • I tend to run SC since solo is so ahem random along with Deliverance for same reason and i'll experiment with Streetwise, Diversion, BK, UE( I hardly ever use it but it's funny), Premonition, Calm Spirit (if there's more than 1 Claudette or a P3 it's a must) Bond, Tapps perk.

  • It's cheating to use a non 3rd party program like that yes.

    As far as sound goes I always turn my volume down during loading screen just in case I load into Haddonfield.

  • I can just imagine more exploiting Legions using this to exploit even more.

  • @Orion said:

    No, I think there should be some drawback to being injured (i.e.: failing to lose the killer). Something that lasts longer than 16 seconds.

    You get unhooked and make a dash for the exit gate after keeping the killer busy chasing you for 2 gens and you make it out. So you're now being punished for doing your objective which is to make it out alive and after getting away.

    There's also you're blocking for an injured person running towards exit, they make it out and so do you but you're injured as well. Now you're being punished for taking the hit that would've downed them instead of being rewarded for it.

    Better to make it so that if both gates are open and you use the hatch at full hp you get no bonus BP and if you do it injured you get half and dying the full 2k. That wouldn't include or have the regular escape bp be affected.

  • I can just imagine doing this and I've almost got it, damn just screamed in tier III madness and the Doctor is just standing there laughing at me as he shocks me endlessly.

  • @Orion and @DocOctober both have good points about this but how would what's powerful beyond the commonly accepted ones be determined.

    For instance DS is basically Nurse tier on survivor side and BBQ isn't and potent as it once was so perhaps you could include another formula or in it's place.

    DS is a one time use item but can be very impactful of used right and then you have AD which is very impactful but situational.

    On killer side you've got Sloppy Butcher which is pretty much as meta as DS is alongside Ruin.

  • @Tsulan said:
    Guys, guys, calm down. He's just baiting. 

    Now you went and ruined it. 😁

  • @PhantomMask20763 sounds like someone falsely reported you and Sony did it's normal with the automated spamming reports again.

  • I haven't played Skyrim in ages but since i've been so ill the last few weeks I played a lot of SC Brood War, Warframe solo, and even some Unreal GOTY on God Mode.

    I also pulled played the old Duke Nukem games along with the original Doom ones for some old school fun Sadly my old D&D games with the code wheels and Journals won't ever run not even under compatibility mode.

  • While you can get trolled by Bond users the same is true for Aftercare users and both have happened to me and it's usually when it's a Freddy. Most people though use the perks for their intended purpose and help you out both solo and swf.

  • @Blueberry said:
    @powerbats I'm going to end this here, this is a pointless circle jerk. I can't rationalize with an irrational person. I suggest you play this game some more to get better experience. Hopefully you'll come back here and realize your folly.

    I was going to say the same, you claim the majority backs you well then post everyone that agrees with you then. I asked if someone with more hours played than you and with a different opinion than yours would make you admit you were wrong.

    Instead I got the same from before, deflections, insults and more because you simply can't refute what I said so you have to scurry away. Just because you've got more hours doesn't mean you're any better than I am and the same is true for me over others with less hours.

    The moment you had to resort to the elitist response i knew you weren't worth the time to debate with.

    @powerbats said:
    Ok so remove Billy and Bubba's insta downs, remove all Mori's except Yellow, remove Iridescent Hatchets, and Pinky's Finger, remove Myers Evil III. Now does that sound like a fair trade to deal with the insta heals because if so I'm sure survivors would agree to it.

    All the killer downs require skill, the insta-heals require a click. The non-existing killer's equivalent to an insta-heal would be the killer making a click and the survivor just losing one or two health states. If the killers could get such an add-on, survivors could keep the insta-heals.

    However, the insta-heals do not need to be removed entirely, they just need a rework. There are already some good suggestions in this thread here.

    Actually that's incorrect, it takes no skill to charge across the map and steer into a survivor or follow behind them and cheese with Billy's saw.

    Pinky's finger just follow them and whammo instant exposed, Huntress follow behind them instant down, Billy same. There's absolutely no skill involved in simply following behind someone with an insta down.

    But like i said you could have a timer required since in real life if you're trying to administer something along those lines there's prep time.

    That'dd keep people from simply dropping a pallet and insta healing to full similar to how they did it before with pause at pallet heal a few clicks etc.

  • @Blueberry said:

    Really? a comment from 2 weeks ago..

    I've been ill the last 2 weeks.

    " the killer has the same access to all those extra perks they can run as well and you're assuming that every swf group has every single perk unlocked."

    The killer does not and I am not assuming that every swf group has every single perk unlocked whatsoever. You are missing the entire point of what I am saying.

    The killer has access to all the perks to choose from just the same as the survivors do providing they've actually unlocked them and have them. No the one missing the point here is still you, if they don't have them unlocked and actually equippable they don't have access to all the operks.

    That's very simple logic that if you don't have something in your possession you don't have it so therefore your argument is null and void.

    "All you;'re doing is making up excuses for your own bad game play here"

    I have played every season at rank 1 on both sides since the games release. I think you're mixing up our positions.

    Wrong again, you keep making excuses for bad gameplay whether yours or others and as some killers on here have said RANK MEANS NOTHING.

    " No you put that in there trying to be a smartass and instead made yourself look foolish"

    No, it just further shows that you didn't develop critical thinking skills to follow.

    Ah yes the typical troll Ad Hominem when you can't refute insult.

    " If that were the case then the entire community would be on here not the same vocal minority"

    Whether someone agrees or disagrees has very little to do with whether or not they happen to be on the forums to post. This isn't difficult to understand.

    Still can't refute my point so resort to the deflect routine but let's use the logic you can't refute. Since the forums only represent a tiny % of the population and most of the forum doesn't agree with you that means you're wrong.

    When it's the same small minority of the forums posting the same stuff that makes you part of the same vocal minority. You';re no different than the same vocal minority of survivor mains on here saying killers are op.

    "No the only one missing things here is you, you cherry pick"

    The hypocrisy is laughable. I've cherry picked nothing. I've been playing this game long enough and at max rank on both sides to actually have an understanding of what goes on.

    Oh yes I've been playing the game long enough so my opinion is the only one that counts nonsense, so if we go by that logic someone that's played the game since inception knows more than you do.

    So since the devs have been playing this game since it's inception and long before the public got to test it that means they have more understanding of how things work than you. Now since they've not done what you asked it means that they obviously know how things work better than you and this won't listen to a vocal minority.

    Isn't logic great.

    "entire argument has no basis in reality and given the minority on here posts that it means once again you're wrong."

    The majority is agreeing with me, you are the one in the minority. You really wanna talk reality? You probably don't even have half the hours I do in this game.

    The majority isn't agreeing with you, that's just your confirmation bias again and as I just proved above your own argument makes your null and void. Just because you've got more hours in the game doesn't make your argument anymore valid.

    Now to further sink your battleship of nonsense if someone comes on the forum with more hours than you and says you're wrong that means you'll admit you're wrong right?

    We both know you'll simply try and troll your way out of it and say their opinion doesn't matter or come up with some other reason they're wrong.

  • Ok so remove Billy and Bubba's insta downs, remove all Mori's except Yellow, remove Iridescent Hatchets, and Pinky's Finger, remove Myers Evil III. Now does that sound like a fair trade to deal with the insta heals because if so I'm sure survivors would agree to it.

    The better way to handle them is to make them have a prep time ie they take a few seconds to administer so 2 seconds of healing for the Sytpic agent and 5 seconds for the Syringe.

  • @DocOctober said:
    You're new to the game, right?

    That error message is omni-present in Dead by Daylight and has been since release well over 2 years ago. The devs were never able to get rid of it so far. It doesn't mean that EAC has found a cheater.

    This had me wondering since once it goes from PTP to dedicated servers would that make more sense to switch to VAC?

    basement exit bodyblocking, tunneling, camping, abusing of their unstable ping to hitting over windows and pallets, trapping the totems with one way accessibility, dribbling, avoiding hatch spawn by ignoring dying survivors on the grounds, walking backward/sidewalk to terminate of chasing (traps and deep wounds times) and many other things.

    Wake up!

    None of these are really scummy or exploits, maybe with the exception of moonwalking with DW. Please don't compare stuff that are so different.
    This loop IS broken (although I'm with those who say just drop the chase when it's hopeless).

    The loop is good if the survivor is really good and most aren't that great and some killers like Amanda if they crouch can mindgame this really well.

    As was said above there's way too many dead areas outside that make the middle such a big draw because it's open season otherwise.

    You have to hook someone before you can break a lantern. It's not hard to do.

    I am very aware of how to break lanterns my man, my issue with them is that you don have time to get to the lanterns when they are on the hook, or you see a survivor, and go for them instead 

    Most of my games killers seem to breaking lanterns just fine except for when it's the last person and the lanterns aren't close.

    Hi! How cool it sounds if survivors had a perk that allows you to pick two items. In order to escape the match and gain double the items. In game this could have a negative effect since both hands are occupied, so maybe survivors can’t jump windows while they carry two items. What you guys think?

    What does the killer to balance things out?

    Base Franklin's Demise?

    A nurse can only do well if the killer plays well.

    Nurse is by far the worst killer if she is played by an unexperienced player

    That's no different than any killer or survivor, if they're bad it doesn't matter which is why most of the complaint posts on here from either side come from. It's always the other side is too op or that they never made mistakes or didn't play well.

    The problem is that a good freddy for example has no chance beating a good SWF

    I've seen some really good Freddy's absolutely destroy but then some that played like a rank 20 as well it really depends on the player.

    @Poweas said:
    Tf? I'm a survivor main who plays both survivor and killer and I agree that killers need major buffs? Why the hell do you think survivors are dumb and entitled I'm certainly not I think. I mean I play at R1 for both. But I got some friends who have great understanding of the game and they're just rank 15. Calm your t!ts.

    Because the dumb and entitled survivors are the loudest.
    I have friends who never really got into the game and never reached single digit ranks too, they still believe that playing killer is a lot easier because they are OP^^

    Are yo sure about that, there's some pretty dumb and entitled killer mains on here as well and also there's way more survivors than killer so of course numbers will be higher.

    But if you go off of % of player base that posts killers seem to be more entitled although some of the survivors that come here are highly entitled cough Barr*n cough.

    Why do you think the wait times will improve when dedicated servers release?

    Will there be suddenly more players willing to play killer?

    No, but it could do a better job of prioritizing survivors in the ques. I literally got the same 2 man like 4 times before I got my friends.

    I have my doubts. 
    Devs removed the region lock to improve lobby times. Now we get high ping players from all around the world. 

    I'm worried about the dedicated server position. 

    I've been in solo queue getting people from Russia and Eastern Europe along with central Europe which is highly unusual for me. I normally get western US, Central and South America, Auz/NZ and Asia including China.

    How can they really find it fair to have an add-on for someone who can go invisible with no indication whatsoever where they are but also no idea that they're using their ability? There is no counterplay whatsoever. Every other strong add-on for every killer has some counterplay on some level (exception being nurse and exhaustion add-ons that remain broken).

    No counterplay?
    I came up with some:
    1) Premonition/Spine Chill
    2) Generator tapping

    I run Premonition and get told it's trash and they shouldn't have to run it despite the fact it works on every killer except Tier I Myers. I've also never been gen grabbed by a Spirit running them even when not running Premonition.

    You can see grass moving, crows get disturbed by her passing, corn maps make her super easy to spot, you can gen tap, move around while doing the gen etc.

    If you can't see how SWF has access to extra perks then I can't help you, it's quite obvious. Yes there are literally only 4 perks slots to equip, that's not what we're talking about.

    Yet more illogical nonsense, the killer has the same access to all those extra perks they can run as well and you're assuming that every swf group has every single perk unlocked. That means they'd have to have bought the dlcs or magically gotten them in the Shrine.

    All you;'re doing is making up excuses for your own bad gameplay here, I own every character yet I don't have all the perks on any of my characters. While I've got them unlocked I don't have them all let alone some more than tier I.

    " Wait what a killer can use speed hacks and lose, did you actually put that total nonsense in there and believe it would actually fly."

    I put this here to show how stupid your comparisons were. By your reaction it appears it connected.

    No you put that in there trying to be a smartass and instead made yourself look foolish and your response shows you know it.

    " It's like I keep saying you and the other vocal minority on here will make and come up with any excuse for when someone does good against swf."

    I'm the majority not the minority, you're mixing up our positions.

    If that were the case then the entire community would be on here not the same vocal minority, you might be the majority on 4Chan or a troll subReddit. Again with total nonsense that has no bearing in actual fact but given your prior nonsense it's not surprising.

    " Oh so if i do this as Trapper are you going to use the same fallacy, how about Freddy, or if I can 3-4k as Trapper? "

    You missed the point entirely. It's that you are picking exceptions rather than the norm.

    No the only one missing things here is you, you cherry pick and then make stuff up then try more of the tried and failed troll nonsense.

    "There's well the survivors were potatoes, the killer got lucky, it was a bad map for survivors, they made too many mistakes ( well duh), they were deranking etc."

    If you hear it that much maybe it's time to reflect and that you might actually be the one confused.

    Again you just can't stop trying to deflect knowing you're entire argument has no basis in reality and given the minority on here posts that it means once again you're wrong.

    @Gorgonia

    The fact that various people are posting about it will help get the devs attention as far doing something about it. One person voice is not enough compared to two+. It may take a while but a little effort is better than no effort. 

    I mean yeah there are some post that are ridiculous but as long as they are suggesting ways to make the game better than I am fine with it.

    If posts really suggested ways to make the game better I wouldn’t have written this. Most of it is ranting and selfish whining.

    Agreed and most posts are simply rehashes of the same nonsense as if the people have nothing better to do or refuse to admit that perhaps they're part of the problem. The common theme is it's always a 4 man swf swat team with isnta heals/AD/DH?DS etc insert w/e other excuses here.

    Yes they do exist but not to the extent that's complained about and I've run into far more solo swat teams and been part of same. Once the devs buff killers to where they're strong enough we'll still see the same complaints.

    Actual good suggestions not one sided suggestions that're constructive are what's needed.

  • @Orion said:
    Indeed, survivors rewarding campers is still a problem. I wish the devs would do something to punish survivors who reward camping.

    I've always thought they should make it so that you get nothing for unhooks not the initial 250 or anything unless the safe hook timer is met.

    That'd stop a lot of the diving in including with BT especially against Bubba's and if they included tool tips during load screen saying as much etc.

  • SC is fine, it's only a real pain when they run Thana and Sloppy really but thats' why medkits are so nice along with BK and Pharmacy.

    The game is coded in a terrible way.
    There is no difference in floors, thats why the grass over the basement moves when someone walks in the basement etc

    You must be kidding me? That is an actual thing?

    Yes

    just like the terror radius is the same in every floor

    The game has been coded in a x-y plane and the devs neglected the z-axis, guess they never intended to have multiple floors in the beginning and have never changed that

    Which is why Doctor's love Gideons because it goes in all directions in a sphere above and below, if they'd fix the issue it'd fix his as well.

  • I'll only dodge if it's bad ping either myself to the killer or someone in my lobby as killer has bad ping since it's not fair to anyone to play like that.

  • @Blueberry said:

    First of all, stop taking 10++ completely literal. I was making a point, I figured that was obvious.

    Looked like the usual killer main complaint rant about facing 16 perks along with 4 instaheals, DS, AD, DH etc.and you used this in another thread as well.

    Second, look up the definition of anecdotal evidence.

    Well take your own advice then and stop posting stuff in your responses as well.

    I wreck and 4k plenty of SWF groups as well, that doesn't mean ANYTHING. You wrecked them because they played badly

    You obviously just skimmed over it and or totally ignored where I said they destroyed me earlier because they played well. You know like I stated right here in the exact same post you quoted me on.

    @powerbats said:

    That was a 4 man premade that destroyed me before on Corn map and I also played that map horribly
    >

    and there are plenty of bad SWF groups just like there are good ones. The general principal we have applied of how by being SWF they have access to a multitude of extra perks that the game wasn't balanced around still applies. A killer can use speed hacks and still lose, that doesn't mean speed hacks aren't OP it just means as a human he can and sometimes will play stupid.

    No, they don't have access to a multitude of extra perks and that's one of the more bad illogical arguments on here yet. They have access to 4 perk slots and the same 45 perks that solo players have. They can't magically take an extra perk nor can they magically take perks that aren't even in the game.

    Wait what a killer can use speed hacks and lose, did you actually put that total nonsense in there and believe it would actually fly. Now you'll say you were just kidding or were being literal which would be yet another whopper.

    Ok now you're just grasping for straws here with that whole plays tupid with hacks thing since you knew it sounded bad and are just trying to duck and cover.

    Also, using spirit is like using nurse and saying swf are fine. Spirit is probably one of the few exception killers like nurse.

    Oh so if i do this as Trapper are you going to use the same fallacy, how about Freddy, or if I can 3-4k as Trapper?

    It's like I keep saying you and the other vocal minority on here will make and come up with any excuse for when someone does good against swf.

    There's well the survivors were potatoes, the killer got lucky, it was a bad map for survivors, they made too many mistakes ( well duh), they were deranking etc.

    As @Master says the only pure counter to good swf is a Nurse because she ignores game mechanics but again if she does good it's not because the killer played well.

  • @Tsulan said:

    People complained that stealth is boring and chases are fun. Now the devs released a killer for that exact situation. Aaaand everyone disconnects. 

    I hate the merry go round simulator as both sides and prefer stealth both sides and now have to laugh that Legion is destroying all the merry go round simulator people.

    Sadly he also makes stealth play really hard due to heartbeats and even hiding in a locker doesn't help once he goes into frenzy.

    I've actually run into a Nurse that did that, blinked behind the gate just before last gen popped and me being my usual totem hunting fiend self went looking just before it popped and found it. It lit up as I was cleansing it and my friends opened the exit gate and got hit just a micro second after I cleansed it lol.

    It was totally unexpected and very sneaky on the Nurses part since I've never seen nor heard of a Nurse doing that with NOED. I've blinked behind the gates on accident when they jut out and I fail blink but have never intentionally done it with Insidious and or NOED.

    You do realize there's Distortion and lockers now and the old all time favorite getting under the aura range or just cheesing outside of it. Most people myself included that run it at high ranks do it for the points and not for the reading.

    Shouldn't have replied that was pure bait.

    Oh I'm sure it probably was but if not they get put on notice that there's reasonable things that can be done so they can't say later well what can you do.

  • If you're referring to MLGA it won't work anymore once dedicated servers come out and the blocking feature is too easily abusable. If you get outplayed just block them and say it's because they were toxic, someone didn't unhook you in time or the killer was camping block them.

    You could very easily block someone as toxic when they weren't in fact toxic but it just seemed that way due to confirmation bias and remembered toxicity from a prior game(s).

    Now with bans active on consoles as well as pc's if someone's toxic report them and they'll dealt with by the mods.

  • Tapps perk does the same thing but I can't remember which way it goes but when they're not all the same it's confusing.
