Agree. Some people argue that anything is better than 4 slowdown perks, but I personally find a full aura-reading Nurse/Blight/Billy/Spirit/Huntress/etc match much more insufferable.

lol ok

Then how do you explain me having a different bonus than someone in the same region and time?

Obviously. That’s why I mentioned the other factors that influence it besides flat numbers of people. I can and do have a totally different matchmaking incentive from someone else who lives in the same US state and plays at the same time because our MMR is so different.

Not only is the matchmaking incentive affected by region and time, MMR influences it too. The last few nights, with the double BP, I’ve seen +100% bonus for killer most of the night (9 pm to 4 am, NA West-ish). No one’s experience with the matchmaking incentive is universal.

At this point I would be fine with the devs gutting the box/chain hunt if it meant the chains that I aim and shoot weren’t so weak and easy to break. Certain addons being basekit would be great, but I would cry actual tears of joy if Pinhead stopped breaking his own chains.

”Fun aura-reading build” sounds like an oxymoron to me. Especially if it’s on a killer that has high mobility and/or range. Not everyone runs distortion, and having the killer constantly know where you are is brutal. But people can run whatever they want. If you prefer 4 slowdown/regression perks, then have at it. Like you…

I believe that survivors are a team right up until the last gen is finished; one person can’t repair all the gens AND distract the killer, after all. When that last gen pops, it’s every person for themselves.

I agree, there are about 5 too many Badham maps.

Just a slight correction, Rancor does not show the killer any auras; it shows them the locations of each survivor. It cannot be countered by perks like Distortion nor can it have its info reading extended by aura perks like Lethal Pursuer. The info it gives is slight, but it can really catch survivors off guard when you…

No, I'm a both sides main, so half my games were on surv. But the BP are more consistent with killer, and killer gets so many more cobbs (cakes) than survivor, that it made sense to me to dump almost all of it into my main.

During the event, around 7-10 hours each day. I'll probably cut back a bit now that the masquerade is over.

Calm Spirit isn’t getting buffed, Iron Will is.

The title is misleading. Should killers slug all 4 survs and either bleed them out or hook them last second, all while at 5 gens? Ideally not, though it isn’t illegal. Your situation is completely different. The killer was playing well, did nothing against the rules, had two people on hook, downed the third, knew where the…

I do it for points. If they’re gonna die anyway, might as well farm em a little.

Do you have cross play turned off? If so, it will only match you with others in your region that have it off. Can’t think of another reason why your queue times would be so egregiously long.

I would love to play as Lee Everett from the first Telltale The Walking Dead game.

Blood Pact only makes you less likely to be the obsession, it does not guarantee prevention

I was able to complete this challenge earlier today using Dark Devotion and Unforseen. Hit the obsession or kick a gen, then go as far away as you can before the timer on the perk runs out and static blast. With any luck, there will be survivors near the people/gens that have your terror radius.

Need more info. Were you playing a killer with a damaging M2? Only basic attacks proc exposed hits.

The East Wing is killswitched, as is the RPD offering; the West Wing is still in rotation.

”How the hell do you fix this?” Unfortunately I haven’t found any solution other than waiting for it to go away. My condolences, hope it’s quick.

What exactly makes it overpowered/unfun in your opinion? Do you also think that the Legion’s and Deathslinger’s powers need to be changed?

This is incorrect, the chains are not damaging survs. Pinhead has always lost a stack of PWYF when launching a chain (doesn’t even need to hit IIRC) and since the StBfL nerf, always loses stacks hitting a chain against the obsession (misses don't drain stacks).

The survs see the box all the time, regardless of add one. The only one that hides its location (until chain hunt starts or they get close enough) is Iri LC.

Seems intended. With the Halloween event, you had to complete every single challenge to unlock everything. This event has a sort of buffer, and if you can’t or won’t play enough to be finish every challenge, you can still get all the stuff.

Looks like this has been resolved, at least as far as being able to raid and build. Cheers

It's less about nerfing builders and more about trying to encourage people to raid brutal (which is over saturated as it is.) Brutals typically only get 3, maybe 4 raids per cycle. What do you expect will happen to those numbers if Brutal becomes even more difficult? When there are a decent number of people raiding Brutal,…

Have you looked at the Codex?

How do you figure this pushes people to difficulties they are not ready for? Regardless of you level, 1 or 500, you can run whatever difficulty you want. There is no MMR or SBMM. You don’t get tougher bases as a Master rank than you do as a Bronze. When the game came out, you could lose up to 30 rank points per raid if you…

This is intended behavior and does not betray the rules. You can’t put more than one impaler or piston in a block’s space because the trap itself extends out and takes up that space; there is only room for one to activate. You can put 4 bolt shots or claws all facing each other in one cube because the traps do not extend,…

No disrespect, but how is this an accidental misclick? It’s not like you’re prompted by the game as soon as you enter sanctuary. It’s not like a series of mindless mashing buttons led to inadvertently pressing the button. You have to walk all the way over to the chimera to do so. She’s in the far left corner of the room…

Raid list resets upon reentering the game, however if you have started an outpost but did not complete it, it will remain in your raid list indefinitely until it is abandoned.

Why did you repeat back to me what I already said? And yet ignore the part about how 2 hours at night is worth less than 2 hours during the day? I’ve had bases recently get ZERO raids during a cycle (12 hours). There are clearly times when there are not enough people playing, and if your outposts have priority during those…

I’ll throw in my anecdotal evidence. I live in NA and I typically play MYM at night. I’ve had brutal bases recently that I activate at 9 pm that get zero raids. I’ve got one outpost in particular that is stuck at P9 because it is consistently getting one or zero raids, not even enough to prestige. Chew on that. It’s almost…

Then why did you queue up?

If you could get all the synth you needed from building, would you raid? If you’re not raiding, why would other people? If no one is raiding, then what are you building for? It’s selfish to want people to raid your bases without doing the same. The game isn’t flawed, it’s designed that way.

Edit: Never mind, seems like an oversight.

Update 2: I might have over exaggerated the consistency at which this happens. Some maps I’ve crashed multiple times, others run fine. Perhaps some combination of decals, props, and/or traps or guards precipitates the crashes?

Update: It happens Fury's Edge and Ravagers consistently too.

I’ve yet to come across an outpost that couldn’t be beaten with two swords. Is it harder? Obviously. Impossible? Not in my opinion. Incinerators can be dealt with by grenades, flash barrier, and/or the grappling hook/sledge. If you deflect the plasma sentinels shots, the cloud will not appear. Spike drive can have you zoom…

Your original post has 2 upvotes. My snarky reply has 24. Read the room.

“if you are complaining about dh you are prob not that good at the game and heres why.” If you are complaining about the lack of dead hard, you are prob not that good at the game either.

“Alright Pinhead, your time is up!” ”Who you callin’ Pinhead?”

Freddy has an add on that makes him invisible to awake survivors while he’s carrying someone. adrenaline - did the killer have terminus or forced penance? I think legion has an add on that makes you broken too. Did you need to mend, in which case only the deep wound health state was healed? resurgence - did the killer have…

‘Why isn’t an asymm with different team sizes and power roles as straightforward to balance as a game with even teams and roles?’ Hmmm, I wonder.

Preach! Midwich is the perfect example of a 2 story map gone wrong. The hook spawn logic is atrocious.
