I mean to be fair we should be nice to everyone, but especially when it comes to new or low low rank players. As a red survivor if you get a rank 14-20 killer you know it almost immediately... just be chill with them. I’m not saying let them win, but don’t go so try hard that you need to pallet stun and chain blind them over and over. And when you’re done with gens just open the gate and leave28 comments 291 views last activity

Have any other killers noticed this, or even survivors? As a killer I run corrupt and find one person working a gen, chase and down him while corrupt is still active then BBQ shows me the other three crouching near a blocked gen. Also has happened to me as solo survivor, me and one other person duo a gen, killer comes after me and I lead him to the blocked gens thinking this let’s the rest of m3 comments 51 views last activity

I haven’t got to play “new clown,” yet but I plan to get a mini marathon session tonight. Has anyone used the cool down addons since the buff, are they not needed anymore or do they provide you an even better throw/M1 combo? What addons should I use? No one hit finger for me I wanna be kind of chill, but if not the feathers I’m leaning toward extra bottle or bigger toxic area2 comments 121 views last activity

So as a killer who goes against reds and a solo survivor who sees lots of reds on my team I have to say the skill gap between this rank 1 and that rank 1 can be HUGGGGGGGEEEEE. Ill have a teammate who loops the killer for five minutes, Is constantly doing gens or something else, and makes a well timed saved during endgame. Then I’ll have five teammates in a row who crouch if the killer is anywh3 comments 31 views last activity

So I play both killer and solo survivor, and although I hate being camped on first hook I understand and accept it is an acceptable, legal, valid strategy. But this is about the endless stream of people posting that camping needs punished, but they never really post a real solution. So again this isn’t a thread about if camping is right or wrong, it’s solo IF you want it punished what do you su25 comments 181 views last activity

So this happens to me a lot, but tonight is the first time the killers called us "gen rushers," in end game chat. Basically a killer starts chasing you and runs within ear shot of a gen being worked on by 1 or even 2 people and keeps going to get you, then endgame complains he was gen-rushed... uhm unless you're going to down me quickly that is a stupid use of time.5 comments 61 views last activity

So there may be various reason, like maybe some people wanna play him but don’t have perks yet. But I’ve noticed even just a few days after release I’m only facingPH 1 out of every 4-5 games I play as survivor. Is he unfun, weak, what is it48 comments 641 views last activity

I’m sorry, the fact that this map is garbage is just exacerbated by the fact with increased chances I get it 9/10 games I play. At least if it was in the normal rotation I would only have to deal with it 1-2 games a day9 comments 51 views last activity

I don’t know much about programming, but it seems whenever they make a change or fix one bug something related pops up in another killer. For example they buffed clown to not slow during throws and it bugged huntress on PTB as well. Then they fixed his bottle moving reload bug and it seemed to go back to nerfing/bugging Clown and Plague.1 comments 41 views last activity

So I know there are plenty of people who have characters to p3, or even all killers and survivors to p3 with all perks and to you guys I just say WOW. I saved points in every way possible and despite not getting to play much I managed to prestige 3 my Pyramid Head today since I like his play so much. This despite never even getting any other character to prestige 1. I don't think I would have7 comments 101 views last activity

It could be the usual request for 8 vs 2 or 16 vs 4, or something weirder. Just for fun, I think actually splitting up game queues would be bad right now. Anyway my preferred game would be a timed game, set at either 10 or 15 minutes where the survuvors and killers just try to compete as many objectives as possible. For example the killer could hook the same person 20 times they never die, alt20 comments 81 views last activity

So this isn’t a knee jerk reaction to yesterday, but a pattern. BHVR has stated they don’t like to release things on weekends or holidays because they wouldn’t be available to help with bugs, and lets face it we all KNOW 100% there will be multiple bugs. But then they release at 11 am, for steam noon, and apparently still all finish work by 4 or 5 leaving hundreds of bugs to affect their player19 comments 361 views last activity

At first i thought the patch had someone changed game sensitivity but playing other killers feels normally. When I’m digging trenches with Ph though it feels really herky jerky, almost to the point of making me dizzy... does anyone else feel this?5 comments 591 views last activity
-
So this happens almost every chapter/patch release, bug after bug after bug and no response from BHVR and let's analyze why. First, they wait to release until 11 am or even noon on Steam, etc and then they seemingly don't extend their staffing hours even though bugs should be expected by this point. Wouldn't you think it's smarter to release at the start of your work day, or expect employees to0 comments 31 views last activity

I can tell by watching streams and reading posts I’m not alone, I have used an offering for BP every game either pudding, cake or streamers and I would say about half of those the bonus wasn’t given by the item disappeared anyways. I can confirm it wasn’t just a visual thing either, last game I started with less than 1000 BP to make sure I could track, I got 4 stacks of BBQ with pudding and my 30 comments 51 views last activity

PC Multiple different games, various maps, kiiler and survivor games All of my games today I have used a bloodpoint offering and 50% of my games today killer and survivor I have not received the bonus, the offering doesn't show on the endgame screen but it still is removed from my inventory.10 comments 71 views last activity

So I see the reports are filling up the forums, watching streams while I work there are bugs every other game, HOW...just HOW?8 comments 131 views last activity

I said this when Stranger Things dropped as well, since Silent Hill is such a big franchise this a great chance to get new players. But sadly, BHVR is still bad at putting out a game that could KEEP those players. Watching streamers and survivors are emitting NO SOUND AT ALL. So the slugged survivor bug was fixed after how long??? And now we have to deal with no footsteps?1 comments 41 views last activity

Maybe it's different for hardcore Silent hill fans but Pyramid's bloody look is amazing for me. Since I was set on perks for survivors and killers I decided to stockpile BP like most people and went straight to P2 pyramid head now it's time to grind to 3 and then for actual perks.0 comments 21 views last activity

Main question, I know I’ve heard that Konami approved silent hill cosmetics does anyone know if they’ll be release same day as killer like slinger had? Also is the last rift level Wednesday?0 comments 71 views last activity

So this isn’t calling for any nerfs, none of the perks I mention are even considered playable by most people except special builds or certain killers. But I’ve been watching our kid play some low rank killer games and some perks are just flat out oppressive against bad survivors. But as soon as someone gets even a few hours i to the game they become pretty bad. Feel free to add on: Distressin0 comments 31 views last activity

So everyone's opinions could change after some live play, but the first big chance to build up addons is during the initial levelling I mean 50+ levels all at once, for some people probably more like 200-300 in the first couple days. So out of the brown, yellow and green addon groups which are you planning to focus on? Which, if any, of the rares are you looking to acquire if they're reachable20 comments 1,661 views last activity

I have heard of a lot of biases towards certain outfits, some I’ve seen in action as well. Newest example is experimenting with a brightly clothed Meg with a flashlight which I have no clue how to use correctly. Whenever a killer sees me and someone else they chase them, I’ve had killers give up chases with me as soon as I reached any loop. This seems to play into the idea that “good loopers,”5 comments 91 views last activity

A petty popular Pig combo is MA with whispers so you can crouch before the survivors hear you. I keep thinking if you just had the 40 meter radius of Whispers 2 you could save the spot on MA. Of course this means you’ll have to move farther while crouched so you’d be slower but maybe the trade off is worth it?9 comments 151 views last activity

I won’t go into details but if you don’t know yet survivors can tell which killer you’re going to use in the lobby. It was rare but today as solo Survivor I had a teammate tell me the killer 4 out of 5 games... even without this post people will start to find out and use this more so as a killer I would suggest doing a quick switch with 7 seconds left on the ready timer.

So I play about 50/50 killer/survivor but when I do play survivor I'm always solo. I never used to use a pallet to avoid a hit if I was healthy, obviously unless it's Billy or something that one shots. Even when I was injured I tried to save the better pallets til end game if I haven't been hooked yet. But lately I have been getting 1 hooked despite running Kindred so all 3 teammates being abl14 comments 321 views last activity

Playing against or as Ghostface is frustrating, sometimes you stare at him for 20 seconds and then get exposed and downed. Sometimes you peek at him through a slit in a fence and he instantly breaks out of stealth.

So before I start, let me say I know this isn't all survivors and I do give hatch fairly frequently. If someone DCs early or kills themselves on first hook I'll usually give last survivor hatch because I play survivor myself and I know how frustrating that can be. Also if it was just a really good game, no BM from either side and just generally "competitive," I'll let someone go if I am fortuna31 comments 571 views last activity

Now, I know inevitably we’ll get that people who don’t need to try and hit great skill checks all day which is great for them. Personally though ever since the change from 2-1% on gen great skill checks I have found myself playing it way safer. Why risk notifying the killer and losing 10% progress when I can just hit the fat part of the skill check. I usually max out on objective anyways so th16 comments 451 views last activity

I swear they lengthened the time of the DS stun so that against enduring it still gave you time to get away still right @Peanits ? But after enduring was changed to not affect DS the time wasn’t reverted, why @not_Queen ?110 comments 1,071 views last activity

So obviously if I wanted to “win,” or “pip,” consistently this may not work so it’s not for everyone. But I don’t stress as much and I’ve been earning some good blood points and feeling like a KILLER again!

So just been screwing around waiting for Pyramid Head, and starting this past weekend I've been playing Myers with Rancor basically wandering around spooking survivors from time to time and maybe landing an m1 but staying just at the edge of tier 1 so the obsession never knows I have Rancor. Once there is 1 gen left I start stalking for real and by the time the last gen pops I'm full speed and d3 comments 91 views last activity

I’m not saying every perk has to be meta, or even strong, I mean I’ve made my fair share of silly builds with situational or bad perks. But ToT, how does the team look at the finished product and go, “yeah I could see players using this?” So kicking a gen and becoming undetectable sounds amazing... except you realize it’s only for 15 second which is not enough time to go anywhere to catch anyon48 comments 1,541 views last activity

To start with I will be running it, I won't be caging everyone every time so I still think I'll get 4 stacks most game, at least 2-3 and I think 50-75% bonus BPs is still good. Plus the info is a bonus. But obviously there is a school of thought that you wouldn't run any hook perks on Pyramid Head, so no BBQ... Pop... Devour...

I am normally against anything that splits the player base and queues, but I think this would actually be the one time it would be beneficial. Instead of a timeout put DC players into games with other people have the same number of DC. Of course you could do a range so 0-2 would be normal, this protects the person who got that accidental DC or had to DC because of a bug. But people with 3-10 D12 comments 141 views last activity

I know the Devs said in the next month, and lots of threads about matchmaking being bad day “I can’t wait for the new system,” but why is everyone so hopeful about it? To my knowledge we still have no idea how they are determine skill. Since the new MMR is going to be hidden they quite literally could change nothing and we couldn’t prove it.

Aside from Meme builds or sabo teams built around it I think 99% of players agree no Mither is worse than having no Perk At all right? The main weakness is the killer knows you have it, so they’re not just going to leave you on the ground to actually use the recovery option. The question is how could you keep it as is but not give The killer notification as soon as the game begins?19 comments 211 views last activity

Have the Devs ever addressed this? It would solve quite a few problems and I honestly don’t see any downside to it. Hide the killer offering from survivors and all survivor offerings from the killer. The two obvious things this fixes are 1. No more survivor DC because they assume it’s a mori. 2. No more killer DC because someone brought Ormond.

I can understand this will never be an option, too many people would find it really hard to find a game. But don’t you wish you could have a small (5-10) list of players that you wouldn’t be teamed with again? That Tapp that refused to let you heal him but the refuses to work gens because he’s injured .

Curious here, I’m a solo survivor been red rank for a long time if it matters, not that it does I still kind of suck and admit it. anyways to my question and topic...I’m not a great looper, I can’t do 4-5 gen chases I don’t do window tech, etc but if I can waste a solid minute of the killers time I feel like I really helped my team, of course hearing a couple gens pop during chases is even bette60 comments 711 views last activity

Thought about this today, obviously not for the first time, but I am strongly considering replacing Kindred with Bond. Is this stupid because of one killer? Maybe I’ll just do it for the first few days when he’s played more and then see how often I come across him later. I don’t run BT or DS but for those of you that do are you going to drop those, drop them for a week when he’s all the rage,13 comments 131 views last activity

I’m not saying everyone is like this, but I see so many hypocrites. They whine and whine that PH makes DS, BT, etc worthless but then they also comment on posts about Wraith and Hag saying even though it’s an old thing Flashlights should still affect them. Personally I am okay with flashlights and I semi-main Wraith, obviously I would be thrilled if they changed it.57 comments 531 views last activity

First no I am not a killer main, I play both sides about 50/50 based on queue times at different times of day. Also I know this isn't a "realistic game," but the one thing that probably bugs me most is survivors being able to swing camera angle while working on a gen. We aren't experts so presumable we have to concentrate a bit or at least you know LOOK at the wiring. To think that Meg can sta74 comments 1,291 views last activity

So this is purely personal opinion, everyone enjoys different things in the game so if you disagree that’s fair. I’m just trying to offer a suggestion for anyone who is burnt out or just not having fun right now in DBD. As killer just try to win chases, let yourself “feel,” like a killer. I tried to end chases quickly, do mind games when possible, and have fun with the killers ability any chan7 comments 61 views last activity

No one that got me into DBD plays anymore really so I play about 50% killer and 50% solo survivor depending on queues. Killer you’re on your own but we all know solo survivor life can be... interesting to say the least.

I ask this in regards for both sides, it seems like Devs are afraid to make strong perks which means the meta won’t change. The last Survivor perk you could even consider meta IMO is inner strength from the stranger things chapter. for killer it would be infectious fright from the plague, maybe thrilling tremors from Ghostface.49 comments 881 views last activity

This isn’t a survivor vs killer debate, I think first there needs to be some sort of balance between solo and SWF so they know what the killer needs balanced against really.

Yes, I had a teammate tell me this after a Legion game. I was the only one that died so that made my argument invalid according to them, my argument which was had each teammate not self cares 2-3 times we could have finished the gens way earlier.

We've done this before, but it's been at least a few chapters since I have seen one so the ground rules: You can't use both powers simultaneously. For example, if you go Spirit/Billy she has to come out of Phase before she stars the Chainsaw.

So personally I never have prestige any killer or survivor, I just worry more about level them for perks and stockpiling items.
