I accidentally clicked 'female' when I meant 'male'. I used to main Claudette. Then I got the Stranger Things DLC and mained Steve for a while. I didn't feel like buying it again when I switched to a console so now I main Steve's free-er cousin Ace.

Hoooorible. The beginning of the match is unbearably laggy to the point I just have to sit there and wait. Sometimes, the lag stops, but then it comes back in waves. Please, devs, fix the game 'cause I can't play it as is.

I think I could've phrased this more clearly. What I mean is, when it's very clear the killer is not nearby (because they're chasing someone else far away, I have Kindred and/or Spine Chill, etc), what's the point of half struggling? It doesn't matter if it's a wraith or someone more visible like the puke lady. I keep seeing it and I have yet to see one instance where it helped.
Edit: meant Spine Chill; not Premonition

Yeah. It can take 10+ minutes to find a match sometimes (edit: solo play, I mean). I tried playing with a friend after the update. We waited 50 minutes and couldn't find a single match that would take both of us. Of course, we tried making new lobbies and un-readying and readying up after waiting for a while, which delayed it more in hindsight.

Wait until your rank 1 and there are only like 3-4 killers that are viable against a coordinated team of god loopers. Then they t-bag you, flashlight in your face, unhook like you arent even there, and once they get 4 escapes they tell you to "get d*cked on, die of cancer, you suck, ggez, etc". You're a saint if people can be so dismissive of you in game then razz you post game and you're unaffected.
Enjoy my novel (nothing bad, don't worry):
I can't speak to that but even rank 20 through 10 killers rely on tunneling and camping. It's not an effective way for new killers to learn how to get better at the game. If you find it's the only way you can win, so be it. I don't personally agree with it but it's your prerogative to play how you want. Just ask yourself if you're having fun while doing it and, if so, have at it. You can't please everyone.
As far as people being rude afterwards, it happens regardless of what you do. If you lose, you suck. If you win, you cheated. Once, someone was being an ######### to the killer for no reason so I defended them and they turned on me instead, insulting the way I played too. It was a good reminder some people want an excuse to lash out at others. It has nothing to do with the person they're taking it out on. I'm sorry people are rude to you. People can be ######### when they know there's no consequence.
My feelings get hurt very easily, even if it's over something that's supposed to be fun. It's a matter of stepping away when you need to (whether it's letting them have the last word and leaving the lobby, switching to a different game for a while, or doing something non-game related). If it bothers me enough, I'll vent about it on social media and delete it the next day just to get my thoughts out there. Unfortunately, people being ######### to someone they barely know is a part of life. You have to find a way to deal with it that works for you. If you need more resources or ideas, let me know.
I recommend scrolling to the four bulletpoints in the link I posted in my first comment. There's also this comic on how to deal with negativity. Credit for the comic (edit: fixed link), credit for the quote.
"Honestly. Bullies want you to react negatively. Take that away and they lose interest."

Someone said in another thread it's to end the round quicker. If you're the last survivor and you get hooked, the odds of you escaping are slim. Kinda makes deliverance pointless unless your teammates aren't willing to help you, but I get why they changed it.

I'm new as a killer too. I find the Trapper and Michael Myers to be the easiest to play. I think any killer with an extra power (like the Nurse's blink or Billy's chainsaw) takes more time to learn. I say stick to the basics while you get the hang of it. Matchmaking is a mess, at least for me, so you won't win every game regardless of how good you are. Treat those games as a learning experience.
Sometimes it helps to watch other people play and see if their strategies work for you. If you don't have many perks as a killer, save up bloodpoints as a survivor and spend them on killer perks. Break gens when you're not in a chase, stick to one suvivor if you come across the whole group at once, listen to injuried cries and look for blood trails. Think about how you'd evade the killer if you were a survivor. Try to anticipate what they'll do.
If you still find it discouraging, it's alright to stick to survivor. There's no reason to play as a killer if it's not enjoyable. ❤️

I would phrase it a little more compassionately, but I don't understand tunneling and camping either. I'm a survivor main who recently started playing as the killer and I can get two kills without having to rely on those tactics. I don't count that as a loss because I didn't ~catch them all. That's while lagging/teleporting back to where I was two seconds ago often (just bought a PS4 to counter that). I think it's a disadvantage for the killers to tunnel and camp. They're so worried about securing that one kill that they let the other survivors gen rush and escape. Best case scenario, altruistic survivors without borrowed time try to unhook them anyway and they get an extra kill.
There's so much negatively in post game chats. That's true for all games but especially DBD. You're either competing against a four man team alone or you're weirdly competing against your own teammates as a survivor. It's a long read but if you skim this, you'll get the gist of what I mean. I think some killers are so worried about not feeling humilated post-game that they forget to have fun. I can't imagine it's much fun to stand in place and stare at someone for a minute and a half each time they hook someone. If people (survivors and killers alike) focused more on having fun, there would be less unnecessary pressure. Then they wouldn't resort to tactics that aren't fun for either side. I mean, I had a killer play peekaboo with me when I was crouched behind a box before and I think they still managed to kill three of us. It doesn't have to be so intense.
