  • This is really sad. I don’t think I ever spoke to him but I remember seeing his username when I used to lurk around the forums before making an account. He did seem like a really sweet / helpful person from what I saw.

    Cancer is an awful thing to experience and see people you love struggle with. I lost my mum to it when I was 9 and my sister died from it late last year. I hope you are all coping as well as you can and remember that it’s important that you all stick together during times like this. You can be strong for each other. xx

    Running from the killer and bringing unknowingly to someone who is basically 90% done their self medkit heal and having him get downed because I was running Kindred or Empathy instead of my usual Bond. Unintentional but basically a sandbag

    If they were injured, how did you not see them with Empathy? That has an even bigger range than Bond. 😂

  • I’m sorry that you’ve been having a terrible time, but I would recommend taking a break. I’m currently 2 weeks into not playing and I’ve been enjoying other games so much more. I will eventually come back to DBD, but my games before I took my break were just so mentally draining.

    Useless teammates, killers that will face camp / hard tunnel with 5 generators left standing etc. It was becoming so tedious. I’m spending my spare time elsewhere and I’ve recently started playing WWZ and having a blast.

    As DBD is so dependent on teamwork, it can be such a frustrating game to play if you play solo (like I do) - I’m hoping that when I return I’ll enjoy it again. If not, I’ll just take another break.

    I wasn’t really having any issues playing as a rank 1 killer, but I don’t want to just play one side. So as soon as of them (survivor this time) became unplayable for me, I told myself I’d take a step back.

    It will get a Score Event. You will get BPs when healing someone with For The People.

    Oh, that sounds cool. I thought ‘Score Event’ meant you had to do something to activate it. 🤦🏻‍♀️

    camping and tunnelling are the two most effective tactics to kill a (single) survivor.

    Especially at low ranks, this translates to multiple kills, since survivors don't know where gens are / don't work on them for reasons / try to do crazy saves without BT.

    At high ranks this is slightly different, since you won't see face camping, but proxy camping, which is much more deadly. Problem is that proxy camping and tunnelling at high ranks are a by-product of swf teams and/or gen rushing → killers get conditioned to be awful, like slug even at 5 gens, because one mistake can lead to a total loss.

    With this in mind, since you are talking about face camping I have to assume you are low to mid rank.

    Now, there are two ways for you to have fun and counter these killers in low to mid rank: play swf with even a single team mate that has BT, or git gud and use a build that basically makes you self sufficient: borrowed time, decisive strike, unbreakable, deliverance - you make sure you are not the first one to be hooked, then you go for a save even against a face camper, and then you are golden.

    ...or play Civilization 5.

    I’m a red rank survivor and killer. Trust me, I’ve heard it all before. And I’ve already replied in this thread with arguments against what you’ve just said, so I’m not saying it again.

    If your going to uninstall just do it, why do we need a story?

    Because I wanted to. Just like how you felt the need to post this unneeded comment. 😉

  • So there’s a lot more responses than I anticipated so instead of replying to individual people I’ll just post some summarised thoughts after reading through what people had to say: 

    • I play both roles. I’ve seen a few replies insinuating that I only play survivor or that I should try out killer. I’ve been rank 1 on both sides and have been 50/50 since I started playing. 


    • I understand that camping and tunnelling can be strategic. I’m not a new player and I don’t need this explained to me. I’m perfectly aware of the ins and outs of this game. I’m talking about killers that will face camp and hard tunnel at the start of the match when there’s 5 gens left. I’ve been seeing this a lot recently and it’s just not fun to go against. Your only way to avoid it is to bring certain perks which I shouldn’t have to do, or play extremely immersive so that you’re never downed. Which again, is boring. I like to switch up my play style and try out different perk builds but recently that’s being denied by matches being absolute sweat fests. I even put on BPS recently and I got body blocked (accidentally) by a Nea at the start of the match and downed by a Bubba, who then proceeded to stand right in my face until I died on my first hook. What was his reasoning for that? 5 gens left and he decided to face camp me until I died? It was done with malicious intent and I can handle these matches once in a while, but when it’s almost becoming the ‘norm’ - enough is enough. As I said in the OP, maybe I’m just getting unlucky but after reading some responses, I’m glad it isn’t just me that’s finding this happening a lot in solo lobbies. 


    • I enjoy playing solo. I’m introverted and don’t enjoy playing in parties with other people. It either distracts me from the game or it can become really annoying to me hearing people constantly talking over each other. I play games for some quality down time and a part of that is not having to communicate with other people. This game has an option to play solo, so I shouldn’t have to play with other people in order to get a positive experience. If that was always the case, solo shouldn’t be in the game. But it is, so I’m allowed to vent my frustrations with the current start of the game without being told ‘just play with friends’


    • I tried out some Nurse games yesterday to try and ignite a spark back in me and it did work for a while but then it got back to how I was feeling when I made this thread. I don’t want to just play killer. I want to be able to play both roles, but again my first survivor matches of the day were terrible. It was either my entire team being downed and me having to keep leaving generators to pick them up from the slug fest or it was people being tunnelled out of the game over and over. 


    I have decided that I will just take a break. I will eventually come back to this game as I do like it and I’ve invested a lot of time and money into it. But it’s just becoming a bit too repetitive with how toxic it is and I’d rather put my energy elsewhere for the time being. I’m not sure if lockdown has got people feeling like they have more frustrations to release, but it’s honestly becoming ridiculous with how many people go out of there way to try to make somebody else have a terrible time. There’s just no reason for it. This goes for both sides, it just personally annoys me more when the killer does it, as I feel powerless. At least when I’m the killer I can turn the tables around easier. 

    Anyway, like I said in my OP, I hope the rest of you that are still playing are having / continue to have better experiences. I might not completely disappear from the forums but I won’t be actually playing the game for a good while. 💚

    I mean technically I’m hitting the hits but the game refuses to register them it just either goes through them or hits them but only speed bursts them doesn’t do any damage

    That was happening to me a lot but I thought the Nurse just had a ridiculously small hit box. She’s the only killer I’ve played where I feel like you have to be touching people to be able to hit / down them.

  • @RizeAki said:

    I wish I could play nurse on ps4 but sadly FPS won’t let me and it got even worse with the last update 😭

    I was expecting to do terrible and not start to do remotely well until after at least 10 matches. I was not expecting this outcome. I actually impressed myself with some of the blink hits I managed to pull off. I’ll definitely stick at it as I was missing a lot too. 😂

  • @IIITweedleIII said:

    I sincerely believe it's better to be a 50/50 player. Just to break the monotony of stagnant gameplay.

    I agree and I do play both roles, but recently I’ve not been enjoying survivor as much, so I was going to take a break. But I actually really enjoyed my killer matches today, so I think I’ll just take a break from playing survivor.

  • @Bullettimegod said:

    No lie. That green addon that gives her 4.6 movement speed is clutch af.

    I wasn’t using that add-on. That’s called Spasmodic Breath. I was using Ataxic Respiration and Fragile Wheeze.

  • @NursesBootie said:

    It's nice to see that others enjoy nurse. I dropped her after roughly a thousand hours, because i couldn't enjoy her with the crapload of bugs. There's still only one deadzone fix since the nurse rework and not one single word from the devs.

    What bugs are you talking about? I’ve only played one match as her so I don’t think I’ve came across any yet.

  • @TheWarNung said:

    https://forum.deadbydaylight.com/en/discussion/191135/don-t-you-love-it-when

    Sorry You're having a rough time. I totally sympathize with people who have to play against campy-tunneling-campers.

    I gotta ask, though: why are you body-blocking against Bubba? Are you on an all chainsaw diet? Because I hear it's a great way to lose extra pounds.

    I wasn’t. I was body blocked in a hallway by another survivor. He came into a room where I was doing a generator and starting revving so I ran out into the hallway and a Nea was stood at the door so I couldn’t get passed. And then as I got downed she used Balanced Landing and left me. 🤣

  • I’ll do you one better. Why is Legion?

  • @VSchmitt said:

    I thinking in playing HG + Undying in nurse, just to see what will happen.

    A Nurse with it would be absolutely terrifying. Let me know if you manage to get multiple plays with it. 😊

  • @MadLordJack said:

    https://forum.deadbydaylight.com/en/discussion/comment/1612277#Comment_1612277

    I wonder if it can even spawn 4 times? The perk takes up 2 totems, so it may not allow it. You might have had the most Haunted Grounds's you can have.

    I think you’re right. I forgot that with Haunted Grounds it spawns 2 totems, so I think the maximum it can be triggered is 3. Lucky me. It was honestly so funny to see it keep appearing in the game.

  • @MadLordJack said:

    Holy shite, poggers dude/ette. That must have sucked.

    Edit: Wow, this was a rollercoaster of emotions.

    I actually found it so funny. I was hoping for a 4th time but somebody cleansed the right totem. 😂

  • He’s always been one of my favourites and I’m surprised more people don’t play as him. The absolute carnage that ensues once somebody is hooked beneath the killer shack is beautiful. I classed myself as a Legion main but switched to Trapper for some variety and he’s deadly with the right trap placements.

    I expect to lose a few gens at the start of a match but once he gets momentum it’s game over.

  • If you need 5 perks to win as a killer you’re doing something wrong.

  • @VSchmitt said:

    https://forum.deadbydaylight.com/en/discussion/190562/so-it-happened

    If it glows it goes, and goes, and goes, and goes...

    It made me laugh so much. The killer must have been having a field day. I know it’s all down to luck, but if Hex: Undying doesn’t get cleansed first, it adds to some great and scary matches.

  • It is annoying when it happens but I wouldn’t DC. As in both scenarios I’ve lost the key, but by staying in the match I have a chance of getting it back if that survivor gets hit and I will still get BP regardless. DC is rarely the answer unless you’re legitimately bugged and unable to play.

    I’m the type of player that will pick people’s items up and give it back to them when I find them again. I’m the entity’s own Uber Eats.

  • I’m really enjoying him. I thought he was going to have rigid turning whilst running but he’s really smooth and I’m playing on console. So that was a nice surprise.

  • That’s where I experienced the issue. I played against Freddy on a different map and everything was fine.

    @Kilmeran Have you played on Springwood? As that’s where the issue seems to be occurring. I’m assuming it’ll also be on Yamaoka Estate but can’t confirm.

  • @TheClownIsKing said:

    https://forum.deadbydaylight.com/en/discussion/comment/1606449#Comment_1606449

    Perhaps you’re right. I didn’t think it included your own injuries.

    Jesus, so up to 56% increase to healing and unhooking speeds.... that’s crazy.

    If it does count yourself and you’re running Botany Knowledge as well, you’ll be able to get as high as 89% healing speed. If it doesn’t count yourself, the highest is 75%, which is still great.

  • @TheClownIsKing said:

    https://forum.deadbydaylight.com/en/discussion/comment/1606336#Comment_1606336

    just understand that DM only increases healings speeds when OTHER survivors are injured, dying, or hooked.

    so if you’re the ONLY one injured while self caring, DM won’t provide bonus healing speed to you.

    There would need to be other survivors injured, dying, or hooked while you’re self healing.

    I thought it also included you as when I was injured and opening an exit gate the perk was lit up. But the bar wasn’t gold, so maybe it doesn’t. It could still come in handy as I like SC with BK anyway, so this is just a bonus.

  • @RoboMojo said:

    It should presuming that the perk's wording is accurate. I haven't had the chance to test it myself though because the dlc still isn't available on the ps store.

    I thinking about using Botany + DM + SC for fast heals.

  • @Gcarrara said:

    Glad you like them. I agree they are really good!

    My bank account is going to hate me after tonight. 😂

  • You’re clearly just looking for an argument and I’m not going to give you one. I’ve explained how I knew the person was streaming and sniping was not involved. So have a good night. 💚

  • @ASurvkillivorer said:

    https://forum.deadbydaylight.com/en/discussion/comment/1602162#Comment_1602162

    So you stream sniped a baby Nurse and that proves something? Lol okay.

    How would you even feel comfortable typing that out. If a rank 1 Nurse CANT get you. There is something suspect.

    Where did I say I stream sniped anybody? The killer had their twitch as their username and I watched the match later that night. 🤦🏻‍♀️

  • @KingFrost said:

    I don't get why people DC against Legion. Or Freddy. But especially Legion. Freddy's strong, sure. But he's not THAT strong. You don't see people dcing against Spirit or Nurse. And Legion? Like seriously? I don't get the hate for them. I don't mind facing Legion as long as my teammates don't DC. Just like I don't mind facing any killer in the game (minus OP stuff). Legion can't even down you with his/her power!

    The only thing I can think of is that they can counter immersive survivors by exposing their position and the fact you have to keep mending. Maybe it’s because I main them, but I find them easy to counter when I’m the survivor. It’s possible to bait out a hit to make them miss their FF which then for the next few seconds turns them into a basic M1 killer.

  • @Talmeer said:

    https://forum.deadbydaylight.com/en/discussion/189173/legion-and-my-moral-compass

    Some survivors live in their own world.

    They think that the game has to be how they would like to see it. Missing the point that it should entertain many branches of different people.

    If you encounter such survivors, you should kill them. With satisfaction.

    How ever, if they really have no chance and play fair and nice, why not meme a bit around with them and have fun?

    I had many fun matches with the old Legion and even then the new Legion is designed to be boring as hell, you can as killer still make fun with the survivors so that everyone enjoys the match.

    I wouldn’t say I play in a ‘sweaty’ way or anything. I think a lot of people don’t like the constant mending and it probably doesn’t help that I use Thanataphobia, but it’s a strong perk to use on them, so why wouldn’t I? 🤷🏻‍♀️

    I just don’t experience this with any other killers. Obviously, I can get DC’s with other killers but not as consistent as when I play Legion. If it happens a lot throughout a single day, I will start being more merciless and just killing everybody but part of the fun for me is having to actually outplay the survivors to get them down. Them just crouching and nodding at me in complete defeat brings me no joy and it makes me feel bad about sacrificing them. I just end up recruiting them to be a member of Legion. 😂

  • @MrLimonka said:

    I guess it depends on the rank you're playing in. Legion is just a noob stomper, and at red ranks he's one of the worst killers.

    And please never say "baby daddy Frank" again. Please??

    I’m a rank 1 killer and it’s normally purple/red ranks that give up. And sorry, I can’t do that. Frank is my baby daddy and that’s just a fact. 🤰🏻

  • Legion is my killer main and I completely understand why they suffer a slight stun after missing a FF attack. The snowball effect you can create after one successful attack can be extremely strong, especially when you’re running perks like Thanataphobia. It’s understandable that the power needs a drawback.

  • @Lost_in_the_Fog said:

    https://forum.deadbydaylight.com/en/discussion/comment/1603236#Comment_1603236

    That might be easier to do except the dc problem only started again on pc after crossplay. Also, the game shows us who is on crossplay and it's not the pc players who are disconnecting in my experience.

    I’m seeing it from multiple platforms. I’ve had over 5 PC killers rage quit from matches, 3 of whom were on Twitch so I knew for a fact they were PC. I’ve also definitely had PC survivors DC as console players are obvious to spot by their usernames.

    I recently had a match with a 3-man who all had the exact same username, minus slight differences and they just screamed PC. 2 of them DC’d as soon as things didn’t go their way.

    I wish these types of threads would end. I’m getting sick of the narrative that every console player is a cry baby who will DC at the slightest inconvenience and that we’re completely helpless against PC killers. I am yet to go against a killer where I think “this is harder than normal” and I’ve gone against a few rank 1 Nurses, who is apparently the Queen of PC.

    Would I be a stronger player on PC? Maybe so. But as it stands, I’m doing completely fine. And I often only die if I’m the last one left and the exit gates are close together and I don’t really count that as a legit loss, as I let the entity kill me lol. I’ve also done quite a lot of killer matches recently and again, I’m yet to notice a massive difference. I even had one guy who was using the stretched PC resolution and he still got beat by my Legion. It was fun watching the match back on his Twitch. 😂

    I mean, I'm not saying Xbox players don't DC, I'm just saying, from my personal experience, they seem to do it less. But like I said, I could just be extremely lucky.

    It might not be XBOX players, but from my own personal experience, the DC’s I get as survivor and killer have globes next to their usernames, which means they’re not playing on PS4. So my point was and still is, that DC’s are effecting and coming from multiple platforms. It’s not just one platform that’s the issue and without us having any actual data to prove which platform somebody is from, it’s all just unnecessary finger pointing.

    I’m seeing more DC’s now because I’m playing with a wider variety of players. It’s to be expected. No platform is worse than another. They all have their fair share of sore losers.

  • @PigMainClaudette said:

    https://forum.deadbydaylight.com/en/discussion/comment/1602647#Comment_1602647

    Yeah, nah. I've had more DC's come from other platforms, so I'm in the same boat as CheeseAnton and they have said that they're basically on the orher side of the planet.

    There’s nothing to “yeah, nah” about, as the DC’s I’ve been experiencing have also been from different platforms. So it can’t be an issue solely with PS4 as that’s my platform and the DC’s in my games have globes next to their usernames. 🤷🏻‍♀️

  • I have 3 for Cheryl, 1 for Legion and 1 for Nea. I don’t mind getting the locked cosmetics as long as I love all 3 pieces. But if I don’t, I won’t buy.

  • @CheeseAnton said:

    Xbox gamer here. DCs used to never happen. They were so rare, and I played this game for hours. I honestly think the DCs are coming from PS4 and Switch players. That, or I was lucky as heck.

    To counter this, I’m a PS4 player and I’m seeing more DC’s now from people with globes next to their name. I know for a fact a lot of them have been PC players because it’s sometimes really obvious with the usernames they have. The rest are either XBOX or Switch.

    I suppose the point I’m making is that every platform is experiencing DC’s.

    Also, I’ve been running into a lot of TTV survivors and killers since crossplay. It’s really fun being able to watch my matches back and see things from somebody else’s perspective. Although one guy was shouting abuse at us because none of us replied with “GG” even though we were on console and couldn’t see the chat... 🤦🏻‍♀️😂

  • @Dr_Spek said:

    https://forum.deadbydaylight.com/en/discussion/comment/1602162#Comment_1602162

    Exactly they are making it out to seem like its totally unplayable against PC. I does not matter what you use so what we get WASD all the buttens you need are right next to your fingers as well. and about us having headphones I know for a fact PS4/Xbox you can connect headphones that are just as good as ours.

    The whole headphone argument made me confused as almost everybody I know on PS4 plays with a headset? Especially on multiplayer games. How do people think console players talk to each other without a headset? lol.

    At the end of the day, most of the ‘skill’ in this game comes from being able to predict what people are going to do and mind game, which I don’t have a problem with. I’ve never once felt inferior since having crossplay enabled.

    The only negative thing I’ve noticed is that when I go against a PC killer I will experience more frame drops when new status effects are applied, which can be troublesome but it hasn’t screwed me over yet, so it’s all good.

  • I made a rank 1 PC Nurse DC today because he couldn’t down me during a chase. I’m playing on PS4. Not all of us are incapable of playing with PC players lol.

    The Nurse who was streaming was also accusing me of cheating as obviously that was the only reason he got outplayed.

    I was also with a Legacy Dwight today and was expecting him to really outplay me, but he got hooked twice and I escaped all 3 of the chases I got into. He also escaped the match with 15k and I had 28k. Console definitely has issues with optimisation but it doesn’t make me unable to play and play well.

  • @OllieHellhunter said:

    Had something similar happen in one of my games but it only stayed like that for like 4 ot 5 seconds, then the Feng fell onto the ground again

    I thought this was going to be the same as she was initially stuck in place but then she started travelling around like the Nurse. I should have recorded a video as the photo doesn’t do it justice but I just couldn’t stop laughing. When I approached her it gave me the option to pick her up and that snapped her out of it.

    I think he’ll have 2 abilities. Something that can damage like the bees and something to travel the map like mirrors. I can see him being similar to Freddy.

    After being hit by the killer Banshee Scream becomes active. If the killer is standing within your newly formed terror radius they receive the biggest tongue lashing of their life and ultimately are disconnected from the match.

  • I both love and hate matches like this. I love them as they make me laugh but hate them as I can’t bring myself to kill the survivors when they look this cute. 😂
