There is a bug when borrowed time just disappears or does not activate and it does not work on leatherface or billy's chainsawI wonder when people will stop making these threads and titles blaming the devs for working on cosmetic while instead of fixing bugs. Due to the fact that different people work on different things you know like Artists and vfx people work on cosmetics while coders work on fixing bugs.
-

That says it all.
-
It does seem to go in bunches like as survivor I'll get Gideons on stop and it'll be against Doctors and Mirror Myers. When I get farm maps it's usually a Billy herd and same for the Autohaven maps.
While as killer it's a lot of Macmillan Estates and farm maps it seems.

Lets clarify the statement of plenty of rank 1 killers do fine. Not saying they dont but examples like these are really bad.
Why? The simple reason is yes they are rank 1 and do great but they also have thousands of hours in the game. This provides not only experience but things such as unlocking every teachable perk in the game, access to them on every killer and more consistant access to the very best addons every game.
So if you use these people as examples you are essentially saying hey you just need thousands of hours in the game, access to the best addons each game, unlock every teachable and have access to them on each killer and thennnn youll do great as killer at rank one.
I only through them out there as an example and never said they 4k every game but I believe it was Monto that did a challenge and he 4k'd over 100 games straight.
But as for gen rush it's in every single game and if after 2 years the killers complaining about it can't handle it that mean they're the problem. You also don't have to have everything unlocked on every killer to do well and in fact have a core group you like to play and go from there.

It would be a nerf to hex totem aura and wouldn't want that to happen as a killer tbh.Good killers already pay attention to cleansing sounds so I don't think it would help me much.
This is for gauging locations at a distance, and they could simply have the Hex aura be different, so that the killer can differentiate them.
If it was a general location type thing like I've got a totem in this area it probably wouldn't be that bad but like @Delfador said good killers already pay attention.
The other issue is you'd have to deal with information overload in addition to gen auras, hooks, general noises etc.

People using outside help to win, people abusing match making to go against lower rank killers.
Killers with poor arsenalsnof addons, perks, and offerings havong to deal with that?
Do you even read anymore?So if people use Consoles built in voice communications that's not abusing outside help to win then right?
Ok who's fault is that then, the same is true for survivors with poor arsenals facing deranked killers abusing noobs yet you're not complaining about that.
I do but the question is do you or can you only make up excuses and use deflections?
I did not say you were trying to win anyone over, you're just thorougly not grasping the situation.
But you did, you stated I was trying to win this one in your own words and I fully grasp the situation. The difference is I'm not making up excuses and using deflections everytime my argument gets countered.
Yeah, I'm not budging on this because it's an issue. Your skill doesn't factor in. It's irrelevant If you doge or not. Completely.
You mean you're not budging on making excuses and using deflections, well glad that's finally out in the open now. If you think skill has no factor in a games outcome then there's no point in even discussing things with you.
All your arguments against me boil down to "nothing's wrong, imma brag, git gud." It's tiring going through the same routine over and over again.
No all my arguments against you boil down to stop making up excuses for everytime you lose and blaming anything and everything on anyone but you when you screw up. You're right that it's tiring going through the same old tired and worthless excuses you and the others use trying to deflect onto others or the game.
When someone gives you tips you resort to insults or deflections and then when they show you proof of it being done you resort to more of the same. If that doesn't work their opinion doesn't matter only yours and yours should voer ride theirs.
You haven't suggested anything lately, and you have to have it dragged out of you to suggest anything in threads like this.


That was so bad it required 2 lols because it was so bad.
Your desire for a challenge is irrelevant. Completely.
Especially when it takes more to challenge you than it does others.
That was so bad it gets the WAH treatment.

Yeah I've seen exactly 3 may'be speed hacking survivors and i reported them and haven't seen them since and have seen about the same or so speed hacking killers. But lag switchers I've seen lots of them on PC and sent videos into BHVR.
I've even gotten friends requests on Steam from time to time from those people who probably sent it to anyone they suspected to bash them.

@Fenrir said:
Really name a few
Monto, Tru there's countless people out there that play killer well at rank 1 and gen rush is in every game and if killers couldn't handle it none of them would ever get to rank 1 let alone 4k ever.

@Rebel_Raven said:
Oh lord, I read why you keep making those comments, and you're more out of touch than i thought wanting the cheated to take personal responsibility for being cheated.
Seriously, you aren't winning this one."Nothing's wrong, git gud" is just such a terrible answer to give.
How are you cheated, if you played badly you played badly and once again all you're doing is making up more excuses for why you lost.
Also I'm not trying to win anything here, just get you to see past your own personal bias and preconceived notions. The only one focused on winning here seems to be you and it's not a zero sum game discussion either.
I also didn't says nothing's wrong and just to git gud, I've said on many occasions killers need buffs and suggested some pretty drastic nerfs. But unlike you i'm willing to accept when I get outplayed or make mistakes.
I'm also willing to challenge myself to improve and learn from my mistakes and not have things handed to me just because the going gets tough. When I play killer I want to be challenged by the best players i'm facing so when all is said and done. That if I did my best I did my best win or lose, not oh they're swf or those 4 solo's outplayed me I got cheated.

Qed, i win. As always.
@everyone else To make things clear, I wasn't trying to argue anything with them. It's just not worth the hassle. Someone who thinks the Doctor is a good killer is either very, very deluded or a poor troll (wich is powerbats' case specifically). Their last posts made it even more clear. Qed, as I was saying.Translation I was trying to argue and insult him but got exposed by it so now I'm going to use more of the usual troll Ad Hominems and hope no one notices.
Bottom line just because you don't know how to play him or aren't very good with him doesn't mean he's not a good killer. Since if he wasn't no one one that actually knows how to play him would ever use him at rank 1 let alone 4k.
But go ahead and keep on trying to troll, use Ad Hominems, Straw Man's etc since you can't debate and thus resort to the typical troll responses.

Peanits said:I don't see the point. It would massively drive up queue times for everyone for no reason. Most SWF groups are no better than solo players, and the rare ones that are tend to be good players to begin with. You'll find that most of the matches you win had SWF groups in it. Having voice chat does not make you faster or better in a chase, good players are good players.
Losing to a good team is not anything to be ashamed of, and I don't see why ruining matchmaking for everyone would be a good solution for the very few extremely coordinated groups out there.
I've been running into mixed rank SWFs since the Halloween event, obvious smurfs, and people obviously using voice comms to pass along informationthey shouldn't have, too.
Facing people who have no business being in the same trial as me has gotten worse over the winter event.Save the "most swf groups are no better than solos" for when the game is balanced around SWF.
Flatly dismissing these issues people have isn't going to win people over.
But making up excuses and using false equivalencies is a better way to go?

@Fenrir said:
There is simply not enough time to apply pressure when everyone genrushs
Yet the better killers still manage to do well even with gen rushing because they adapt, prioritize which gens to put pressure on and which to leave etc.

Not really tbh.
Make an example why it should be so terrifyingBBQ/Tinkerer/Bitter Murmur/Rancor/Sloppy Butcher/Nurses Calling/Stridor/Iron Maiden you could swap one or 2 perks out but the same is still true.

@BACKSTABBER said:
We got now x8 more perks than when DBD was born, we did not get the equivalent x8 slots, why not a few more?what will happen in the next +5years with another x8 perks? same 4 slots?
Am I the only weirdo with these ideas?

As long as survivor perks are stronger than killer perks, I say no

Just imagine an 8 perk Nurse/Billy/Spirit although Freddy would be absolutely terrifying with 8 perks same for Bubba.

@Poweas said:
Why does everyone hate @powerbats now? Am I missing what is wrong with them? Powerbats posts reasonable stuff and they are a good asset to the community.
Well not everyone but I do sometimes go overboard with my sarcastic/facetious responses but at the same time I don't go for all the whining/excuse making.
That probably has something to with age and being a parent of 2 adult sons I want people to accept personal responsibility. Instead there's a lot of the same people on both side who seen to do nothing but complain and make excuses.
When I call out a survivor biased person the killers don't have a problem with that but when I do it to killer biased people it's like the end of the world. The same is true for heavily biased survivor people, they like it when I call out killers but hate it when I do it to them.
The arguments and excuses are always the same though like it's get to rank 1 before your opinion matters but when you get there they change to well rank means nothing.
-
@jackmadrox said:
@powerbats = extremely salty.
Well would you imagine that if my comment fits you it must be accurate then.
Oh and btw Killer main and unlike some I don't come to the forum complaining and making up excuses for when I lose. The same is true for when I play survivor, if i get outplayed that's on me, if the killer hard camps that's on them.
-
@DocOctober said:
I won't even start. You annoy me to no end.
I merely pointed out how killers do the same for the points at the hatch and because I pointed out how it's similar it annoys you to no end?
Would it be fine if they removed the 2k points for the hatch escape then and only gave escape points or make it so you only get 2k for a hatch escape but not the 5k for surviving.
I don't have an issue with removing the 2k points for a hatch escape since technically you're already getting rewarded for an escape with the 5k.
In fact if you make hatch escapes worth only 2k you get rid of survivors camping the hatch once the gates are powered just for the extra 2k points and instead they'd lose 5k for doing so.
Then killers would get less frustrated having to go look for the person camping the hatch only to jump in at the last moment.

@Mister_xD
Not bubba racism. LF with speed addons is WAY more fun than insidious LF.Those are the most scary ones and throw in killers that know how to play him well and it's usually a 4k game.
-
@ToxicFengM1n said:
mostly survivors but yeah, you just forgot killers play there own way, not by your book of salt
Yes survivors must give a killer 4k every match and never use pallets, DS, any type of healing action. Also survivors aren't allowed to touch your totems or do a single gen and should always be patiently waiting under a hook.
That way the killer doesn't actually have to do anything challenging or work for their hooks and all survivors are supposed to instantly suicide themselves so as not to make the killer wait.
The other salty killer rule is survivors can't wear any outfit not killer approved and can't bring a single item into the game.
Did I leave out any of the salty killer rules or should we just accept that some killers are just as bad as some survivors and will make up stuff just like a certain poster in this thread for ego points.
-
@DocOctober said:
Survivors really just care about points and the Hatch gives a bonus of 2,000 Bloodpoints.I could care less about the 2k points to be honest when all is said and done and we could turn your argument around and say the same for killers.

They could give it a QOL by making you immune to Ruin, Huntress', Unnerving, Overwhelming, etc for the duration of its one time use.Ummmm.....have you even used a BNP? It is 100% immune to Hex: Ruin for the few seconds that it is active. And if Hex: Huntress Lullaby is in any way active when you are using it, why are you not using it at the beginning of the game?
Well for Lullaby you might not even have it active when you start trying to use it and I've had instances where I've run into that or a Doctor with a Ginormous terror radius comes close.
They should either reduce it to green rarity and perhaps tweak how much it does slightly or keep it where it is but make it do more. While also being completely immune to all negative affects like Lullaby, Shock Therapy etc.
But only have an active protection timer of say 5 seconds once you start your repair and it ends when that's up or a skill check is failed.

@powerbats said:
Doctorino op, plz nerf duud!1!!!!He's just a M1 killer with a ginormus terror radius. All he has is a mediocre tracking ability that can be replicated with perks (Whispers, Predator) and outclassed by certain addons (All-seeing, Amanda's letter). There's no need to remove the only way the Doctor has to keep a bit of pressure on the survivors.
But, of course, you're powerbats, so I don't expect you to understand what I'm saying and come up with a valid counter-argument. Too bad this forum doesn't have "hide this user's posts" option like Steam.
Ah yes the typical troll responses from someone that can't debate, when you can't counter LIE and distort. Since you can't counter debate, only use histrionics, distort, lie, deflect, and basically troll away we can safely dismiss your posts from now is what you're saying.
If you honestly think the only way a Doctor can track good survivors is with Tier III madness only then the issue is you're just not that good. I mean what happens when the survivors sasp SNAP OUT OF IT oh no what will good Doctor players do.
They'll use their brains to go find said survivors, look for illusions, shock away, check likely hiding spots, gen patrol etc. You know they'll actually play the way they're supposed to play not come to the forums and troll and make up ame excuses that only rank 20's would use.
Then we come to the typical I can't debate you properly so let me troll my way out of this by saying something nonsensical and hope it flies.
Oh and just to put the final nail in your troll argument those addons you mentioned are a limited radius and the killers have gto give up something to use them, you know drawbacks. Oh and lest we forget the Doctors Ultra rare like Iridescent King.
So when you're ready to have an actual debate and not try and troll your way out of one the rest of us will be here waiting.

@Rebel_Raven said:
May not always be correct, but most times for me it is. I don't expect to be forming ties with people in this game. I don't play enough, and frankly I don't like people.
Well if you don't play enough then you're not facing a wider variety then so your data set is more limited. As for the latter that's no big deal, to each his or her own in forming relationships or liking ppl.
If you know how they play that lends to coordination. And you are still surviving with friends, you just didn't use the actual mode. What am I missing here? I'm hard pressed to call you randos, or solos here. It's pretty disingenuous to push the narrative you're just 4 solos.
Ok so because I know how solo people play that lends to coordination, how is that any different than a killer knowing how people play?
Also good grief just stop making up excuses since i'm not friends with any of them, I'm not friends with them on Steam, or any social media etc. Now you're just making up excuses and shifting blame from where it really is you.
If we all randomly queue in as solo players that's the very definition of randos no matter how you try and twist it to fit your biased narrative. You can try and twist , deflect use alternative facts, make up your own facts etc, it doesn't change the fact were random players.
You also just proved my point that the vocal minority on ehre will makeup and or use any excuse to justify their bad gameplay even against solo players. I gave you a perfect example of non swf and what'd you do make up an excuse and try and say it was swf anyways.
The only one being disingenuous here is you and the fact you'd thought that totally illogical argument would fly speaks volumes. It just goes to show you'll never accept that when you lose it's not just because swf or because their might've been swf but because of you.
I'm hard pressed to call it outplaying when you're still coordinated like that. It's not just you, it's you, and your pals combined.
It's called outplayed because the killer made more mistakes then we did and we're not pals since I'm not friends with them on steam and have never talked to them on voice or any social media. Oh and some of the killers we faced would also 4k us because GASP THEY OUTPLAYED US.
And lets not pretend that SWFs, be it function or not, won't capitalize better on mistakes made.
Oh gee it's almost as if solo's won't capitalize on mistakes as well or that GASP killers won't do the same.
You can't just up and dismiss the issue. My experiences in this game won't let you. You're not quite seeming in touch with the issue since you regularly play high levels, and there's no one really smurfing to vs you, and you just brush off SWF. You have the arsenal, experience, and so forth.
Why not, you're dismissing what I have to say because my experience isn't the same is yours so talk about being hypocritical. You can dismiss me but I can't dismiss yours well now that's about as entitled as you can get.
What I see is you making excuses up left and right and then when one excuse gets debunked or countered or is contradicted or you're given info to help you. All you do is go onto the next excuse and deflection, when that doesn't work it's insult, degrade, ignore and say your opinion is the only relevant one.
If you don't have the experience who's fault is that, yours or mine, you can't complain about lack of experience then turn around and complain about being bad because of same. You've had plenty of chances to get better but instead of getting better you chose the path of least resistance.
Which is of course make up excuses, blame others, blame the game, blame other players for just flat out playing better than you etc.
You're never going to get better if all you do is play the blame game and victim card, learn from your mistakes, accept you made mistakes and improve. I don't come here and complain when I get outplayed whether by solo or swf or a combo of them.
Since even when I win against said groups I still always made mistakes even when no gens got done, there's always something I can improve on. The same is true when I get smoked, i learn from what I did wrong and try to do better the next game.

@scorpio said:
Killers run Ruin all the time, it's the same principle, except Ruin has a counter and DS is OP and broken. I've definitely gone against 3-4 survivors with DS, and 2 is very common. At least one survivor has it 95% of matches I play. And it isn't even about if there is multiple in a game. There being one in a game is enough to screw things up. I don't understand why everyone is like "stop whining and deal with it" rather than express displeasure so BHVR sees it is important to change it. Why exactly are we not allowed to complain about an OP perk? Why is that a bad thing? Why is the response "get over it" rather than "you're right, that perk sucks" or "I don't agree but I understand why you feel that way." This community is so [BAD WORD] toxic it's disgusting.
I don't run Ruin all the time let alone at all and a lot of killers at red ranks don't either because they realize it's a crutch that quite often gets cleansed and they don't want to rely on it.
Most games I'm lucky at red ranks to see more than 1 DS and the only times I get it quite often is Purple ranks.
I like others on here don't have an issue with a 1 time usage perk that turns into a wasted perk slot once used and if you're letting it screw things up that's on you.
There's nothing wrong with expressing your displeasure but endless rants instead of constructive criticism are 2 different things. Do you have any good ideas that're fair to both sides or is this just more of the perk is stupid remove it.
-
I'd say PTB if it's coming soon™ would most likely hit either the 8th or the 15th due to all the changes they need to test internally.
I'd imagine Epic Games will also have an Unreal Engine bug fix update out probably this week or early next week given past history.
As for Legion they'll probably fix the moonwalk exploit and tweak him with some qol stuff to make him both better both also have counterplay options.
You'll see bug fixes like the skiing bug being fixed along with this very funny skiing/Deliverance bug and I even did a gen while suspended from a hook like this.

We might even see the 1st attempts at a Freddy rework or just some general looks at how it's coming along with possibly some secondary objectives.

If SWF wasn't full of dicks, and more reasonable like the few of you, we probably wouldn't have thsse threads.Most swf aren't dicks just like most killers aren't either it's just you've got a few dicks on both sides that feed the narrative. Besides you and I both know that if SWF wasn't here the vocal few on here would just find something new to complain and rant about.
-
@Rebel_Raven said:
Kinda hard to think of them as not SWF when they do obvious stuff that makes it obvious that they are SWFs.
Acts of coordination and knowing what and who is where no group of solos would ever pull off.That's not always correct since I've been in countless games where I know everyone by name and we're all solo and just know what to do. The killer just gets outplayed or makes tons of mistakes then says I knew i should've dodged you because SWF.
If I see someone running for an unhook I simply turn around unless I'm close enough to help heal and if not I go back to totems/gens. Before region lock removal I used to play with the same group of 20 or so players around 2-4 am PST.
I knew their skill sets and how they played, I knew several were from Australia and same for New Zealand, 2 were from japan and 3 were from China. There were several west casters like me and 2 from Hawaii, 1 from Guam/outlying minor islands.

@DwightsLifeMatters said:
I never payed attention to the emblem system cuz I don't care at all about pips. But this match I took a look into the stats and saw
"-3% survivors escaped grasp"
and it was only one survivor who escaped my grasp: the DS user.
Just wanted to share this and show how broken the emblem system is.So when you don't have anyone that uses DS but still escapes your grasp does that mean the emblem system is still broken? I mean flashlight saves, pallet stun saves, body blocking saves, hook sabo saves, you downed them where no hooks are. Because you used the ones up there already wiggle escapes and or simply didn't go to the nearest hook.

@Acromio said:
So, basically you want a garbage tier killer nerfed? Get lost with that.If you think Doctor is garbage tier then there's no helping you and only bad Doctors ran NC on him because it's a waster perk. Also why is this a nerf considering they're still in madness II and it's not like you can't just come back and reshock them.
I mean even Freddy's victim get woken up when he hooks them and the Doctor is made for tracking survivors provided of course you know how to play him.

Actually a good idea since the spam posts are click-revenue bait.
I saw another discussion about having to complete a Captcha to be able to post a new topic on the forums as well. I think that should be done as well, as an extra layer of anti-spam.
Edit: Speak of the god damn devil, they literally just now started spamming above me as soon as I made this comment lmaoYeah it starts just after 5pm PST because they know that's when most people are off work so time to start flagging spam posts again.

@kdogg727_PS4 said:
Just get rid of SWF that will solve alot of killer grief can NOED wolnt help you either as soon as one survivor is dead your completely exposed to themYes go ahead and remove 70% of the playerbase and see what happens when they stop playing since I'm sure the remaining 30% will be able to keep the game profitable.
Also if they remove SWF then what excuse will you use when you can't beat good solo survivors since those are the ones most likely to be left.
-
You'll get that from time to time I had a duo that sandbagged a rd person on Red Forest one time till they quit. They then stayed in my post game chat insulting trying to get me to leave so they could feel better about themselves.
I let my post game lobby go on for over 30 minutes and after about 15 they stopped trying to insult be nd then tried talking about rl stuff. They then waited and tried insulting me some more along with some quite ahem interesting insults.
I'd been recording the entire thing and simply hit the report button since I'm sure BHVR got a load of laughs out of all the stuff they did and admitted to doing. They both actually tried adding me as a friend on Steam after I'm assuming BHVR banned them.
It made my day and I didn't decline right away, I just waited a few days then hit block.
-
No, and if you need to facecamp just to get to rank 1 you're bad given how easy it is to rank up over time. I can understand camping once the gates are powered or it's someone toxic ie sandbagging their teammates.
-
The way I think to fix SC is you could change it so it has charges like you brought the herbs and such into the trial with you. Now if for instance you had 3 charges and you used those up you'd have to go forage for more things during the trial to refill your supplies.
Since even if you heal others you're sort of using your supplies up in a sense less so if others are also helping you to heal. Now granted this is the Entities realm and if you couldn't heal you'd have no hope of escape and it couldn't feed.
So you probably can heal others without using said supplies but for yourself you should have some needed supplies. You could keep the infinite uses now but make it so that it slows down the more you use it if you don't go harvest stuff.
If it's your own perk you get more out of it and Botany Knowledge could help you farm plants faster and use less up. If you're using Plunderers for instance you might get more out of each harvest attempt or Ace's Luck etc.

Uhm what, are you trying to tell me that its fine to go afk in CSGO and that this is impossible in DBD?

you need to disable voice comms ONCE in your whole life, but why is noone else allowed to use it just because you dont want to?
The only logical answer to this is that you dont want killers to be buffed at SWF lvl and thats just embarassing for yourself

I never said that now did I, what I said and I quote it so you can't troll again.
"Hmm CSGO multiple people and you can hide behind a wall if need be."
Would you imagine that your troll attempt failed miserably.
Who said I'd have to disable it one time oh and here let me post exactly what I said again and i'll even bold the relevant parts for you.
DBD a killer chasing you and you can't always hide and simply choose the mute option and why should I be forced to disable it beforehand. Perhap I want to talk to someone that's being funny in the lobby.
Whelp that's another of your faile troll attempts up in smoke, your 0/2 now.

Just when you thought you were about to actually get a troll comment to land your post runs right into the wall of reality.
@powerbats said:
**The solution is to buff solo players up to swf level information wise such as with Bond like base kit and perhaps a totem counter only they can see. They could have an obsession like thing as well where the obsession would have the usual symbol.
The others would have a symbol as well for chases and then they'd basically be on the same information level to an extent. Which at that point killers could be buffed so that they're back to their proper power role but without being godlike op to solo.**
🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️ Well would you imagine that I suggested something that did exactly what you said i was opposed to and it was in response to you. That just one comment directly saying that no less, there's a lot more than that out there too.
But of course you already knew that but didn't think I'd go post the old comments just to expose what a troll you are. Oh and would you imagine that it was also in swf thread discussion and you also didn't respond after i posted that very gem because it removed your ability to troll.
Also that was within the last 2 weeks as well so that's 3 strikes and you're out.

Nah. There's an easy way and idk why so many people haven't seen it yet. Bring Solo to SWF level. Then buff the killers to combat Solo and SWF. Problem solved.The devs dont want to introduce ingame voice comms because it would be against the nature of the game (the irony though)
No they don't want to have to make people listen to 12 year olds screaming at them non stop about why they didn't rescue them from the camping Bubba.
Some genius invented the mute functionally to prevent situations like this
Yes because having to pause your game to mute some 12 year old works out really well when the killer is chasing you. So the geniuses that know better don't force an action paced game to be paused/alt tabbed/menu opened when it can't be just to please someone using such a bad argument.
I wonder why this works in other games, even competitive ones like CSGO for example
And if you are so strongly against communication within your team, then you can still disable it completely in the menu, there will be several shy /socially akward guys out there that will do that, thats for sure
Hmm CSGO multiple people and you can hide behind a wall if need be.
DBD a killer chasing you and you can't always hide and simply choose the mute option and why should I be forced to disable it beforehand. Perhap I want to talk to someone that's being funny in the lobby.
Alls you're doing is looking for excuses to troll over this since you know it's not feasible for all the reasons mentioned before.
CSGO multiple people on each side, DBD 1vb4 and if you have to sotp to mute said annoying 12 year old you're basically dead.

Bumping because of the spam bots.Yeah those are annoying but hopefully once they get the new mods in action it won't be such a big issue. I just wish they'd do what League did and allow a right click report option without opening the thread. That way the threads get flagged without getting the views they're after.

For one thing, it's a single player game so I'm not sure what kind of argument that is supposed to be. Every single game that exists on PC has a way to open a console command, even in DOOM 2016. No one who actually plays the game seriously will use that stuff. If someone wants to cheat in a single player game, that literally hurts no one. Mod support should always be a thing for single player games, like Fallout and GTA, where the devs directly support modding.
I merely pointed out you were using analogies as well.
Also DbD you used to have to buy DLC, but they changed it because it is more lucrative to sell cosmetics that can only be bought with money, which plenty exist.
Yet you can buy stuff with shards so that doesn't invalidate my point but reinforces it.
Except I can link you to a video of Mathieu Cote stating why this game was originally balanced around solo players. Here it is
https://youtu.be/YH5jhyU6GjUExcept that's not the point, the devs always intended for swf to be a part of the game but they had to choose what made launch, KYF or SWF and they chose the former. That'd be the last devstream by the way.
Dude the basic gameplay is trolling. Looping, which is widely recognized as an exploit, is a standard thing people use. That's nothing but trolling or using an exploitable hitbox to your advantage because you're bad at the game.
>
The only one that's bad here is you, it's always excuses and the devs have stated quite clearly it's not an exploit. If you can't get someone that means the problem is you and since you're a survivor looping shouldn't bother you.
Incorrect. Killers in fact have a bigger hitbox and this makes looping way more effective than it should be. The devs have stated before this is unintentional. Good work proving you dont know your stuff.
Oh boo hoo the killers have a bigger hitbox well did it ever occur to you that you can angle your turns to chase better. Why is it Marth and other top tier killers manage to take corners pretty well but you as a survivor main can't seem to do it as a killer.
Yet again you prove you're the only one here that doesn't know their stuff and after 2 years if you can't cut chases short that means the problem is you. I mean i learned how to chase better after just a few months but magically you after all this time can only make excuses.
Also the devs have nerfed and or removed some of the looping spots but darn those pesky facts.
I dont hide it because I literally stream all my matches homie lmao
So you stream all your matches well where's a link proving you play solo, where's the proof of you going perkless for a challenge, no items/addons. Where's the video of you playing killer so horribly so you can't make excuses when it's obvious you're the issue?
Face a group like the Depip squad, who even the best Killers in the game were unable to defeat. Nearly 100 wins in a row, with many Killers being top level Killers. So you're better than ScottJund?
Best killers that's laughable and you know it, they even admitted they were facing baby killers quite often who were doing dailies. So don't lie and say top tier killers nonsense because we both know that's a flat out lie. Oh and nice fallacy there.
That was during a free period lmao
You ignore when it wasn't though.
It peaked in Septmeber, during the end of the month when the game was free until the 25th of September. That's the only reason the pop hit 60k
Yet again you troll, it was above 10 all the way up to 30k at points during non FTP but hey lets not let actual facts get in the way of your trolling again.
The bottom line your 10k claim is false.
It was during a free trial period.
Again stop trolling and ignoring the days it wasn't FTP where it went over 10k.
Because 30k people play during events. Otherwise 10k people are playing. The other 20k likely only play during events.
That's not what I asked for and you know it, you made up data and extrapolated it to fit your biased narrative. Where's your hard and fast actual data saying people are leaving? You claimed people left the game not that they were playing other games possibly.
If people were actually leaving the game they wouldn't be coming back and playing at anytime not even during an event.
During a free trial period.
Again with the trolling, the stats clearly show there were people playing during non event times over 10k.
BHVR said 1.5 million people were playing, but did the game go free during that time?.Because of it did, then there's your obvious answer as to why 1.5 million people played at ONE time. Same goes for the 60k on PC. Notice during this event there is still no where near that count. And by the way, the Pestulla event was universally hated, so people certainly didn't play it for the reasons of it being enjoyable, only to grind out 2 free cosmetics.
Hmmn over 4 million paid copies of the game and somehow magically none of those paid copies played the game. If peak pc was 60k and consoles were both equal that's only 180k yet we had over 1.5 million playing during the event.
If we use your failed logic we'd have to assume that none of those over 4 million paid copies of the game logged in during the event.
It was a free trial period dawg. Which was one of my arguments as well. You seemed to leave that out and focused on the event aspect of my argument. Good work.
So you said free trial, doesn't change the fact that people were also playing who OWNED THE GAME or did the fact over 4 million copies of the game have been sold escape you? Now since over 4 million copies of the game have been sold an event will of course have more paid players playing then free.
But hey don't let those facts get in the way of your trolling again just remember 4 MILLION PAID COPIES shoots your ftp claims full of holes.
No one enjoyed it if you actually paid attention to the forums during Pestualla.
I did and there were a lot of people that liked the event, their problem was the queues due to people playing one side exclusively. You know the queue issues that pop up from time to time that makes people hate the events?
But if no one liked it why were there posts saying positive things about it, I mean if no one liked it then obviously all the positive thread were complete illusions.
Yeah those pesky queue times that were why people hated the event so much not because the event was bad. But again you can't acknowledge the actual facts since that gets in the way of your biased and false narrative.
Yknow it's funny you mentioned ad hominem earlier when you started calling me a troll long before I called you a corporate shill lmao
Well that's funny your very 1st response to me contained this gem, now who started insulting whom 1st again?
But hey, that's what's good for the business, so obviously someone who favors this kind of playstyle will fall back to the business argument, the weakest and saddest argument that could be made when it comes to video games.
I can guarantee you, by the devs own stats, 70% of games have SWF groups in them and nearly every survivor loops.
I can make up stats about looping too like I can say nearly every killer camps.
You can't improve against mechanics that literally are stacked against you and continue to favor only Hillbilly and Nurse.
Yet plenty of people play killers other than those and do fine but you somehow magically after 2 years can't adapt.
Oh look, a screenshot with no video context to go along with it. I can pull out many screenshots of me killing at Rank 1 as well as various games at Rank 1 if you'd like. You aren't impressive.
Oh look more deflections and Ad Hominems.
Lmao considering the game has no viable way for rhe Killer to counter voice chat, I'd like to see how you adapt to SWF outside of killing as quickly as possible and tunneling.
It's called planning ahead, using your brain, adapting your tactics to the moment, playing smart, minimizing your mistakes and causing them to make some. It's called actually playing well and not coming to the forums making up excuses while stating you're a survivor main yet making killer based excuses.
Just because most of the Survivor population is hot garbage and don't fully utilize their entire kit to their disposal doesn't mean the potential doesn't exist. Keep in mind the depip squad had 100 wins in a row as Survivors with NO PERKS and NO VOICE CHAT even against top levels like ScottJund brodie.
Yes again with the fallacy, as stated above that was a biased experiment that was against killer doing dailies including as Marth even said BABY KILLERS.
Another no context screenshot that's useless. I asked for videos of your gameplay, not screenshots that show only highlights against likely garbage survivors.
So more excuses and deflections, nothing new there.
Stop using words you don't know how to properly use.
I know enough about using them to irritate you because you can't refute them otherwise you'd not use that troll response.
You use the word fallacy while referring to free weekends as your reason why a lot of people play the game LOLOLOL
Well that was just sad, lets see oh yeah OVER 4 MILLION PAID COPIES OF THe GAME HAVE BEEN SOLD. See I even bolded it for you so you couldn't miss it. That means that most people playing during events or FTP are more than likely PAID USERS.
Oh and PSN users got it for free if they PAID FOR AN UPGRADED MEMBERSHIP.
Too bad DbD was in fact free at the end or Septemeber, which is when the peak of 60k happened. Try doing a little research https://www.gamesear.com/news/the-multiplayer-horror-game-dead-by-daylight-is-free-to-try-out-on-steam-until-september-25th
Too bad it had over 10k during a non event but nice try ignoring that oh and see above about the OVER 4 MILLION PAID COPIES.
Sounds to me like I need to come out of retirement, because I already the top levels a long time ago.
It sounds to me you need to stop making excuses.
Except I hit Rank 1 long before it become a cakewalk to do so.
Ok post a screenshot of it and don't use the save data excuse since everyone knows you always backup client side data.
I literally already explained stopping the chase doesn't help but you ignored my argument. Stopping the chase just allows the guy to self heal, and that still leaves 2 other survivors on gens when you find the other guy, and the guy you stopped chasing before is now healed and on his own gen.
No I ignored your trolling since you're saying you're a survivor main and yet making killer excuses at the same time. You can stop the chase and move off then go back and smack the person healing. also a person healing isn't on gens which is what you as a killer wants.
Stopping the chase is exactly what loopers what you to do because the moment you do it, the Killer loses the game.
Yet more excuses 1st it's not stopping the chase loses you the game, now it's stopping the chase loses you the game. Why not make up your mind which is it then since I've got no problems breaking off chases when I need to and not losing the game on average.
I hit Rank 1 Survivor perkless a long time ago without using any items fam. It really isn't that hard. Would you like me to do it again? I'll stream every single match like I did before.
Go right ahead and prove you're doing it and link it here.
Except again, I already played to Rank 1 Killer perkless wearing bright Meg clothes. If I didn't lose my save, I would have worn my Legacy Prestige while doing it as well just to mock you further. But alas, the devs thought it was a good idea to make the save data for a multiplayer game save client side rather than server side, up until about 8 months ago or so.
Oh I had legacy P3 with all achievement unlocked before I even bought the game but if my save hadn't gotten corrupted i'd mock you with it. I can make things up as well and anyone that knows how important save data is when it's client side BACKS IT UP.
Except it is factual because I can do simple math. It takes 2 and a half to 3 minutes to get the game finished as survivors, and based on Killer's movement speeds and looping, no Killer except Nurse and Billy can win without the survivors simply making massive mistakes that any decent player wouldn't make.
Again making up facts then using them to bolster your argument shows you have none since if you're having to use only the best case scenario for your argument it just proves you have one. Then yet again if your best case scenario doesn't work you use more excuses to justify why it doesn't work.
Except in Smash Ultimate every character that was released before is in the game. No Smash game besides Smash 4 had DLC characters, and all DLC characters for Ultimate will be brand new. Good work not knowing what you're talking about, again.
You still have to buy a new game, DBD you buy a game and can get all DLC FREE except for the licensed stuff. But hey lets not let facts get in the way of your trolling again. Oh and it's only available on Nintendo not Xbox, not Playstation and not PC.
But would you imagine that DBD is available on all 3 of those platforms so your comparison to a single console exclusive release just went up in flames.

@weirdkid5 are you still pretending to be a survivor main or have you dropped the act?Sounds to me like I gotta come out of retirement. Not sure how the 600 of the 800 hours I've played as Survivor somehow doesn't make me a Survivor main.
For someone that claims to be a survivor main you're making up an awful lot of killer main excuses.

No and instead it shouldn't heal you up from the ground nor activate while on the hook unless it's a Deliverance like effect. You're basically exposed and if wounded it only gives you a sprint Burst.
No because a killer can just game you from running in a straight line to activate it, oh and Billy says hi.
No for obvious reasons and if you want a window blocked you either use the in game mechanic or Bamboozle. You're not entitled to a free window/vault block just because you want an easier chase/down.
Better to change it to a stun based mechanic and as far as making the skill check smaller won't matter since Red ranks already hit Ruin great checks. If you fill up the wiggle meter then the killer gets his hook sabo'd right in front of him person jumps off and is still free.

Broosmeister said:You know what ruins the game for me? Waiting hours for lobbies because killers are too pussy to play against swf and dodge. This happens when i play with bad people as well as good people, rank 1, 10 or 15 it doesn't matter. When a killer sees swf they dodge on ps4. All i can say is get good at the game or stop playing, no need to ruin the game for people who already have to wait way too long to find a lobby.
I get that you have the occasional toxic swf group, i get that you dodge when you see 4 toolboxes or flashlights. But me and my friends play normally and respectfully, and when i play killer and see swf i don't dodge and most of the time i win because they are way too altruistic, they swarm you when you try to hook someone so i can hit everyone with sloppy butcher. Sometimes i get 4 people in way higher ranks who pallet loop like crazy and i get absolutely demolished, but life goes on anyway. Stop whining.
And who are u good sir that u think u have a right to force anyone to do anything?
Are u kenichiro Yoshida? maybe u should play something else if people don't want to play against u.So let's use your own statement against you, who are you to decide who plays an online games with their friends or not? The game was always going to have swf in it as an intended feature, it just wasn't ready by launch.
Perhaps it's you that should go play something else instead of telling people not to play with their friends just because you don't like a challenge. If you want an easy game then this isn't the game for you, perhaps something with bots only.

Last one Myers has a limit on how many time he can hit EW3 and trapper he strong as the game goes but he has limit traps so you can still play around it
He has no real limit unless he kills everyone off or they escape since each time it decays back he can gain evil back up. The Trapper has limits yet the good ones do just fine because they don't rely solely on their traps and the same is true for good Hags.

Nah. There's an easy way and idk why so many people haven't seen it yet. Bring Solo to SWF level. Then buff the killers to combat Solo and SWF. Problem solved.The devs dont want to introduce ingame voice comms because it would be against the nature of the game (the irony though)
No they don't want to have to make people listen to 12 year olds screaming at them non stop about why they didn't rescue them from the camping Bubba.
Some genius invented the mute functionally to prevent situations like this
Yes because having to pause your game to mute some 12 year old works out really well when the killer is chasing you. So the geniuses that know better don't force an action paced game to be paused/alt tabbed/menu opened when it can't be just to please someone using such a bad argument.

@Ryuhi I mentioned those only because while they do overlap they also cover so many different things like hook sabo and body blocking.
