I think they should extend the event when they bring back event offering. I missed days of event because I don't want to have blocked offerings in my inventory for the year or even longer. So I just don't spend bloodpoints. I understand that it seems like not a big deal, but it's just bugging me.

in Mission Accomplished! Good Job, Friends! 400% BP Bonus. Comment by kaeru March 27, 2024

Some of their decisions are clearly got from watching statistics.

For example they want to make all killrates 60% ideally. That's probably why they buffed Huntress. But Huntress didn't need a buff. She has her killrate below 60% because she is free, so newer players try to play her and they lose.

Huntress requires some patience and accuracy from player. Not extra 2 hatchets or some another buff.

Don't forget that survailance won't give you any information if you don't kick gens or if you don't have gens regress perks. Survailance is relying to the rest of the build to be useful, while overcharge is useful by itself.

Yes, I didn't count any of that. It is definitely may take less time.

in Level up of Characters Comment by kaeru October 4, 2022

There ts 29 killers and 33 survivors in game. Prestiging one character takes approximately 1 million bp. So you need 186 000 000 bloodpoints to p3 every character.

If you play 4 games per hour and earn 30k bp per game, you will need 1550 hours.

If you play 2 hours a day, it will take a couple of years.

in Killers how do you make DBD interesting and or fun for survivor? Comment by kaeru September 26, 2022

When overheat mechanic was added I made a long saw montage in 2021 and it included my gameplay from oct 2020 - jan 2021. I was playing Hillbilly only on this period.

It's still possible to have fun with Hillbilly but overheat made this killer much harder to enjoy. Couple of tries and you have to walk on your feet waiting your chainsaw to heat out. Old Hilbilly could use m2 attacks only as for fight and for mobility and it was fun for both sides. M2 only Billy was a respected play model.

Devs made this killer more normal and less fun. Those who remember Billy as fun killer just don't want to play normal killer, so they switched to killers that can provide fun. New players find him difficult so we don't see much new Hillbillies around.

For example when Deathslinger was nerfed everyone stopped playing him. But with time new Deathslingers appear because his nerf wasn't unbearable. But Hillbilly is different. His power is hard to use and overheat mechanic makes it even more difficult for you to learn it.

Hmmm...I wonder why do they do that?
Probably because the killer was camping the hook and they got injured while trying to unhook.
Stop pretending like tanking a hit with BT would change anything. Since you were already camping the hook, you'd most likely go for the same survivor anyway.

Try to see if it really was a camping from killer's perspective.

I usually don't camp. I prefer to check gens after hooking survivor. But when I go away from hook and I see someone instantly running to unhook I change my target to this survivor. Don't expect killer ignore dumb play from survivors and capitalize on survivors' mistakes. Playing fair doesn't mean being tolerant for stupidity.

If you want to unhook, make sure it's safe. If you being chased your best option might be lead killer away from hook and let rescue to someone else. If killer drops the chase and stays around the hook, then okay, he is camping. Elseway killer is chasing someone around the hook becasue what option does he have?

When I chase survivor that going to unhook of course I injure him. And if rescuer is injured why would I chase 107% speed survivor with base bt protection? Of course I go for rescuer. Only thing could stop me from that is unhooked person bodiblock instead of running away. While unhooked person bodyblock, rescuer already ran away, so who is my only target left?

Now I'm camper and tunneler because I didn't ignore survivors doing dumb ######### in front of me.

I'm not saying it isn't important and shouldn't be addressed, I am saying that it is only a serious problem for a tiny percentage of the community. These people want visibility, so like 95% of the playerbase aren't high priority targets here. If you're one of the affected, yeah, I'm sure it feels bad.
Cheating should absolutely be addressed, but the needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few when it comes to priority.
All that said, we don't really know what BHVR is doing behind the scenes. I am pretty sure they aren't just ignoring it, and they are capable of doing more than one thing at a time, I'm sure.

You underestimate streamers' contribution to the game. They attract tons of new players and inspire old players to keep playing.

I'm not a streamer and I didn't see much cheaters or streamsnipers in my games so I can't share Otz' problem. But my real problem is that my favorite dbd content creator leaving the game. I like dbd and probably I will keep playing for a while. But who knows how long I will play without inspiration from good streamers and youtubers.

in Otz and problems with anti-cheat Comment by kaeru September 20, 2022

Basekit protection gives a decent 7% speedboost for 10 seconds to get into safe place. But when survivors use it to bodyblock they straigh up asking to be tunneled.

In my opinion it's much harder to tunnel when unhooked survivor runs away instead of trying to protect his rescuer.

I was always saying that best antitunneling perk is Sprint Burst. When you hooked you always have exhaustion off. If you still feel tunneled, try to use Sprint Burst instead of DS or DH.

in Is tunneling easier than ever now? Comment by kaeru September 20, 2022

Right now playing killer is comfortable without slowdown perks. You can focus on info instead of gens because you already get extra minute of slowdown.

But I played survivor a lot recently to do achievements and challenges and killers sometimes still focused on gen slowdown in their builds. This is kind of overkill. I escaped only once since update and it was a beginner Huntress with frosty eyes.

I don't know if survivors adapt or quit. Judging by queue times they switched to killer role.

in Good Reasons why should BHVR balance around Solo queue? Comment by kaeru July 25, 2022

I guess my MMR at its lowest because I lose as survivor a lot recently and I go against killers that only equip frosty eyes as cosmetic.

And I get a lot of legions. I know that we should stay separate and keep killer away from teammates. But my teammates seem to be beginners and they often try to group up and heal instead of doing gens.

At current state game is more punishing to survivor mistakes and it's easy to make mistake against legion.

Damn it Dwight!
I have yet to catch a Dwight in a locker but teleporting around as Dredge is fun. He seems to be a very strong killer in my first few playthroughs (like...high B if I had to put him in a tier right now).
Killers though usually feel pretty OP on release until people figure out good strategies against them so I'll be curious to see if he stays at a high level or not.
On the plus side, high tier or not, he's super fun to play as so that's promising no matter what

I didn't have much success with Dredge. Mostly because I didn't get used to control him yet. Too much variations how to control his power so my recent games were a bit sloppy.

I hope I enjoy him when I figure how to play efficiently. Same as I didn't find Artist fun until I learned how to play her and now she is in my top-5 most fun killers list.

Lol same
I don't know anything about him (console so no PTB thing) and I don't really follow streams or news or whatnot. All I know is you can lock lockers when facing him and he teleports around in lockers.
I'm pretty sure you can't but I also choose to believe this update means I can lock that nerd Dwight in the locker!

No, you can't lock survivors in lockers. But funny thing I played Dredge yesterday and I accidently catch Dwight hiding in locker by random teleport. That couldn't be more stereotypical.

in Any reason to buy or play Dredge? Comment by kaeru June 8, 2022

Try Sprint Burst. It allows you to run away if you got unhooked in front of killer. That will make you an unappealing target compared to your rescuer.

in DC, suicide, DC, suicide... Comment by kaeru June 7, 2022

DS is mostly fine. Only thing that you can't do anything about it's when survivors hooked while endgame and they just crawl and escape or stab you and escape. But at this point game is pretty much lost so it doesn't really matter.

in ds deactivation requirements are weird Comment by kaeru June 7, 2022

I can understand survivors during endgame that leave you on hook in basement or across the map. I don't blame them actually. They just probably calculate it and decide that 5000 bp not worth the risk.

But recently I got into situation you described and I had the same feeling. Healthy Jeff that wasn't hooked once just left in gates leaving me behind 30 meters away on hook. And Legion wasn't even camping. This is straight up frustrating.

I rarely play survivor and fortunately I don't get such survivors often.

If they make proper scary Nightfall it won't bring back the feeling of your first 30h in game when you gone numb with terror when hear the heartbeat. Experienced players will play normally because they know how to play and what to do. Newer players will get scared even more ######### out of them which is not bad.

But I think they should make it dark and scary as Coconut said. It's periodic power like Myers tier 3 but focused on vision instead of instadown. And no one complain about Myers power.

I see keys in my lobbies sometimes. And I'm glad it nerfed. As killer you had to worry they escape together without opening gates or even repairing all gens which felt unfair and undeserved. As survivor it meant killer will bring everything he has to eliminate the team in worst and fastest possible way.

in Does anybody uses keys still? Comment by kaeru November 26, 2021

Thank you for kind words. I want to share my killer expirience too.

When I was beginner killer I got a lot of bullies in my matches. And their goal was not just winning, but also ruining my day and damaging my mental health. I was very offended by their flashlights and teabagging. I felt so helpless against them. My hands was shaking and heart pumping fast. I missed vast majority of my attacks. I could easily lose survivor which I chased for minutes. In post game chat they were laughing at my lack of expirience.

With time I noticed my problem. I got my ######### together and everytime I saw a bully I just ignore them. I knew they wanted my attention and I decided to not give it to them. Since then clicks and teabags didn't bother me anymore. Post game insults still hurted me.

So first problem was solved and my mental health wasn't in danger anymore. But I still was a trash killer that only good for killing beginners. So I decided to learn how to deal with good players that I ignored. I learned how to bait and mindgame and bully squads turned to suicide squads. They couldn't hurt my confidence and their tricks just give me free hits. I learned when I should affraid of pallet and when I shouldn't. I learned that some pallets are working in killer favor. Basicly I learned how to end chase faster so this bullies couldn't run me for long anymore.

Now I'm full grown and fair killer. I never rely on camping and tunneling as my main strat but I can do it when survivors give me that opportunity. My main strategy is pressuring survivors from gens. I'm not a god tier killer but it's still my main role and at least I know what I'm going. There still a lot of survivors that can waste enough of my time to make me lose. But at least now they are good sports. They often reply gg to my gg. I believe they treat me like a worthy opponent that would win in different scenario.

It's sad, but looks like hate from survivors mostly goes to beginner killers. Once you get confident and dangerous killer, survivors show their hate less and less even when you lose. This is my killer main expirience and I guess it's not a common scenario. It's possible that other killer mains could have very different story with another ending.

in Killer Mains, I Appreciate you <3 Comment by kaeru November 26, 2021

Yes. It was on Game map. I used full fun build Mad Grit, Iron Grasp, Agitation, Starstruck on Trickster. And survivors was sticking around when I carry someone to the hook.

Well funny thing is you don't lose MMR it keeps going. And every game is a literal sweat fest as survivors run the same build over and over and over, if there was a casual mode then things would be different.
Let's say you just got a killer and you decided to play instead of low MMR you get high MMR if you're an old player. You're force to play sweaty with meta builds with high MMR and you'll would want to play with killers you're good with.
As I see it, it punishes creativity towards builds and create a sweatier environment for all. You see MMR increase for kills and survive. Also my friend went up against the same killer 4 times in a roll. So yeah MMR sucks

I'm sure you do lose MMR when more than 2 survivors escape. So if you play non-sweat builds you lose enough games where your game style match the skill of survivors. They still might have 4 second chance perks each, but you will be able to handle it.

I advice you to play as you like without thinking about your invisible number. Accept loses and enjoy wins same as before MMR was implemented.

in My thoughts of the current dbd Comment by kaeru November 25, 2021

Now with MMR it punish you for being creative with builds and I'm basically forced to play with the same meta builds and force to use max MMR killers. It's honestly boring after awhile.

I don't get it. What do you get for being High MMR gamer? There is no reward, so why you consider not being high MMR as punishment? You don't get less BP on your own skill niche. You don't get more BP or Shards or Cosmetics for High MMR. You don't even know what you MMR number is. Why everyone aiming at High MMR and then shitting about how much they hate it?

You are not forced to play sweaty. You can play with any build you want and win. Not every game you win but why would you expect 100% winrate? You didn't win every game before MMR, so why should it change suddenly?

in My thoughts of the current dbd Comment by kaeru November 25, 2021

I have reasons.

I find it less stressful than solo survivor.
Instant queue time at evening.
About 30k bp every match is a normal result for killer. +BBQ stacks +BP offerings = ~90k BP every match.
No dumb idiots ruining my game with DC or suicide.

I genuinely have same question to survivors. Why they play survivor other than being masochist?

What if winning is fun? I don’t enjoy derping around with crap perks and addons to get 1-2 kills. Pulsar is right: all of you in this thread are only talking about masking the issues. The devs need to balance the game, not cater it towards people who don’t put in the time to learn.

If 4 kills is winning for you, you can slug at 5 gens and get 4 hooks - 4 kills while having 4 strongest slowdown perks. If it's fun for you I don't see the problem.
