in How good are you in a scale of 1 to 10 as both roles? Comment by Kumnut768 November 6, 2020

you cant say that "X side is OP" because in general killer nor survivor are unbalanced but there are variables that get brought into the equation that turn the tables of balance, for example if a solo team versing a killer with 2k hours, killer sided, solo team all with ds unbreakable against the same killer, survivor sided, now the killer brings a mori, killer sided. you cant use an umbrella term to describe the balance in this game

That's really not true, for two reasons. First, most of the time you do know exactly where the killer is, even if you don't see them every step of the way. For example, let's say you get hooked and the killer beelines towards a gen across the map where a teammate is. Do you see the killer walk all of the way there? No. Is it very likely that they have BBQ and will continue to beeline towards the gen? Yes. Second, running OoO still doesn't necessarily mean your teammates will have as precise information as you do. Let's say you're playing on Lery's. Are you going to be able to call out which room the killer is in just based on their aura? No, almost certainly not. Even if you've developed a convention with your team such that you know which sides of the map are the top and bottom, the best you'll be able to do is say, "he's in the middle about 1/4 of the way to the top", or something of that nature. That's not a whole lot better than what you'd get just by paying attention to your TR, using your eyes, and using any other tracking perks.
In theory it can be used to make your teammates loop gods, but not really in practice. I'm a red rank killer, which is relevant, because matchmaking is rank-based. I have literally never had a game with an OoO watching me the whole way through my chases and with teammates that were unreasonably good at predicting my mindgames. There are only a minority of loops where that's ever going to be helpful, because the survivor needs time to react to the callout, and only if the killer is moving in a very predictable way. If all they ever to is walk backwards or turn around, sure. What if they start to walk backwards like a classic moonwalk, then reverse and moonwalk the other way? That move often gets hits within a second or two on decent players - they double back when you show the red stain around the corner and then it goes away because they assume you're moonwalking, and then they end up running right into you. If you called out the original moonwalk, they'd run right back into me by the time you had time to call out the second... you get the idea. You could probably bully some killers with no anti-looping power who try to mindgame bigger loops, but in general, good luck with that.
If the object is able to win their 1v1 with the killer and waste a massive amount of time, props to them. In a fair matchmaking system, though, that should not happen much, and against many killers it's not happening unless the matchmaking is really busted. Like, good luck running a killer like Spirit, Nurse, or Clown for long enough to save time for your team. The best you can hope for is to bait the killer into chasing you away from the gens they're defending, but if you're far away from the gens they also don't need to bother with you.
Against stealth killers this perk is straight up garbage. You get to see maybe what third of the map the killer is on, which is not particularly useful information, and in return they get to see your aura, which is very useful for a killer with no TR. Especially against a killer like Ghost Face that has pretty much perfect stealth, you're pretty much just going to get destroyed. You won't know if they're 10m away or 72m away until they walk around the corner. If stealth killers are bad in the chase, and OoO makes it easy for them to hit you for free, you would get way more utility out of something like Spine Chill, or Sprint Burst, or really anything that can help prevent you from taking that first hit.
This perk does destroy Trapper, agreed. This perk does not destroy Freddy or Hag. Freddy's snares make mindgames irrelevant at loops. In other words, even if you have actual wall hacks on him while you're looping, he can still rapidly shut down tiles with his snares and force you to leave them. Unless this is one of the first chases of the game and you get a really favorable match seed, you're probably not going to be able to consistently move from safe tile to safe tile. He's going to force you out of a loop, there's going to be no next loop close enough, and you're going to take a hit. Meanwhile, Hag just sets traps far too frequently and they're way too hard to see and then safely disarm for you to be able to damage her web faster than she can repair it without taking free hits and while still doing gens. Even if you have four flashlights and an OoO, by the time you communicate and destroy the one trap she'll have set three more. You also very likely won't know exactly enough where they are to communicate the location to teammates in the area if you're relatively far away. You'll be able to say, "she put a few traps near the corner jungle gym", but you won't be able to communicate them precisely enough for your teammates to find them and just barely trigger them to avoid a free hit.
-----
This perk is extremely rare at red rank, four-man SWF or no four-man SWF. The question I have is "If this perk is just stupid OP, why is it so rare? Why has it not become meta?" For every one SWF with an object, you'll have like 20 with the normal Dead Harb/SB, UB, DS, BT/Adrenaline. I think the answer is a combination of things. 1) It doesn't provide nearly as much meaningful information as people say it does, especially when you factor in not being able to scan your surroundings when you don't want the killer to see your aura and 2) It is not fun to use, because it gets you tunneled / makes some killers salty, it's actively detrimental against stealth killers, it's weak against highly mobile killers with strong 1v1 (e.g. Spirit, Nurse), it's weak or even detrimental when the killer has built up pressure and the object is forced to come help relieve it, it forces you to be too careful about where you look during the match, and it generally forces you to sweat your balls off to even try to get good use out of it.
If when MMR comes back OoO enters the ultra-high MMR meta, I'll eat my words. As it stands now, though, it feels more like a noob stomper or "I think I'm better than you" perk than something that's consistently useful. You can tilt baby killers, who will mindlessly chase you for a few gens, and then if and when they give up you can just torment them with it for the rest of the match. Good killers will be able to better exploit the information they're getting back from you, and will be strong enough in the chase that the main issue is not knowing where they are: it's figuring out how to prolong chases. If they want you out of the game, you will be out of the game, and your SWF mates are less likely to just rush gens if the killer is camping you because SWFs are usually way too altruistic. That's more fun, after all.

this is about midwich not lerys and its not about callouts its about the way midwich is designed that allows you to always stay far away from the killer with them almost never catching you

im not saying its bad cause of callouts and stealth killers and trap killers and all of that i cba to get into all that but specifically for midwich

this is the layout, the main hallways work as a square and have 2 sets of stairs in the corners with two entrances to the courtyard on opposite ends. this is where OoO comes in, since there is no way to cut off the survivor that is sat at the end of the map other than run in a square chasing them, with OoO you can see which direction of the square they are moving and constantly reposition to make it so that they cant catch them without spending countless minutes chasing them in a square

in do you think OoO is ok? Comment by Kumnut768 October 29, 2020

Not really. You can't dodge huntress or deathslinger projectiles, as they are unreactable.

slinger is fair enough that part is up to the killer but huntress if you mean the ads time thats reactable, charged at long range is reactable but not at close range, depends what your definition of reactable

Why would survivors pre-dropping pallets affect me as clown? I just throw the bottle at a high point near the loop before they get their and they waste more time trying to “pre-throw” it, while I’m already walking around to the other side of the loop. It’s pretty much a no-win scenario if the survivor is at an uncovered loop, they waste a pallet, gain very little distance because of the gas that was already there, and I probably get a free hit.
you don’t actually play clown do you?

Okay this is going to sound cliche as ######### but there are honestly two ways to get good as nurse.
Watch lots of gameplay. I mean LOTS. Eventually you start picking up blink distancing vs charge time, how long you can hold your chain blink, etc etc just by watching. This isn't how you properly learn her and get good as her but it can really give you a massive head start (I suggest Ardetha).
And the other? Just play her. Everything in her kit is about muscle memory, knowing where you can and can't blink from where. It's honestly just a case of practicing. That's it. That's how you get good as her.
It took me 2 and a half years of watching gameplay before I attempted to play as her. Finally I put like 60 hours a week into playing nothing but her, and after 2 or 3 weeks of learning I finally got to where I am today. I'd call myself above average.
Good luck man. She's the hardest killer in the game to learn and NONE of her skills are transferrable to other killers so it'll be a pain trying to learn someone else too but, good luck.

yea this, you gotta be prepared to suffer a lot if you want to get good, i was lucky enough to learn nurse way back in like 2017 when the average survivor was actually pretty bad looping wise

I agree swfs have huge advantages. But giving options to players to avoid playing with or against swfs is more of a balance. If solo players queues are faster and swfs slower that tells the devs all the information they need but might not want to know. Toxic players will still play toxic but they have to do their own dirty work. Sounds fair to me.😉

because now no one can play swf even if their memeing, or just playing casually and your punished for having friends and killers would need some kind of nerf to make solo playable

Quite simple.
SWF groups will (once again) face a killer at a minimum rank equal to the highest ranked survivor in the party. This immediately crushes the majority of SWF smurfcomps and means that if they want to smurf, they all have to derank.
SWF groups will have their matchmaking rating inflated artificially, proportional to the number of players grouped together (to counterbalance the coordination/communication advantage). Heroes of the Storm did this, and it worked pretty well.
https://forum.deadbydaylight.com/en/discussion/comment/1686855#Comment_1686855
Then why did they remove the protections against smurfing and the protections lowbie killers had against it? (Well, I know the answer - these same smurf groups started complaining about queue times and how they couldn't 'teach their lowbie friends the game, just ignore all those perks they have').
Why is deliberate killer deranking bannable, but survivor deranking isn't?
Note: survivors still have those protections. Survivors at a certain rank (I think it's yellow and below) will always be matched against a killer lower or equal to that rank. This is how the current smurfcomp works.
Again - if they were working on fixing this, why would they remove the fixes they had made - with no announcement, chance for discussion or ETA on a replacement?

question: if you inflated a 4 stacks mmr proportionally to the 4 stack if they all have high mmr levels the queue time would be ridiculously high and i dont think there would be enough players within that mmr range to even be matched with them

and this is all assuming that mmr can accurately predict skill which we know a computer cant do

I'm repeating for special people, who don't read but rather look through, I never said SWF are OP. They simply brake the game, which is much worse.
I never said most SWFs are OP, if we started talking about that, I never had problems against such groups, unless I'm playing M1 killers which are generally bad and extremely demanding to the point it's just not worth playing them against any competent players. I don't care if the people in a SWF are good players or bad players. I simply don't care, because this isn't about skill or winning. It is about legal cheating which is the voice comms that not only make many pretty interesting playstyles and entire killers totally irrelevant against them, but also entirely replace at least a dozen of survivor's perks. There's no fair game or entertainment while facing SWFs, even if they are trash. Saying there's nothing wrong in SWF because "pOoR sUrViVoRs mIgHt bE bAd" is like saying there's nothing wrong in cheating because you are so bad, that you can't win even with cheats. That is what you sound like. Pretend that SWF aren't a problem because some cheating survivors are so bad, that they can't win even with cheats.
Voice comms contradict original (and as it seems current, since nothing was done to change the situation) design of survivors (which is them being unable to communicated anyhow but with gestures - lorewise and gameplay wise) and devs must do something about it, be it either allowing killers not to play against cheaters or buffing solos to level of cheaters and buffing killers or simply deleting SWF outside KYF mode. Saying "just ignore the problem, because you can still win" is pathetic .

would you consider kindred "cheating" because it offers the benefits of comms
