I don't recall the plot of either RE2 or RE4 too well, but in both games wasn't she just letting Leon do all the dirty work just to snatch her prize (the G-virus and the Las Plagas thingy) from him at the end? I know that it doesn't go exactly that way because she's not as cold-blooded as she seems and clearly develops a…

Oh this game will peak when Doctor becomes playable in 2v8 >:)

On the one hand I'm sick and tired of killer perks announcing themselves to survivors. On the other I think that aura-reading perks are probably the only category of perk that should announce itself.
-
How clunky the detonation delay feels when there's a little ping involved. I'm not even talking about crazy ping, 60 ms and the survivors are vaulting or dropping pallets right after they scream. I've learned to play around it but man is it depressing.
-
I personally wouldn't mind self-unhook attempts being removed, but something else I thought could be implemented is that you get the self-unhook attempts on your second hook stage, not on the first. First stage is like the one in 2v8 where you're just hanging there helpless. Second stage would allow you the current 3…

I'm not that well versed on DBD lore but I do find your theory interesting since the Unknown and the Dredge share the same map offering, with their maps being located in the same realm (Withered Isle) and the Dredge came into being as a manifestation of people's negative thoughts and emotions. So the Unknown manifesting…

Something similar happened to me two days ago, and I was playing Freddy of all killers, lol. But at least one of the survivors was super laggy (like, running in a straight line and suddenly teleporting back where he was 10 whole seconds ago) so it might have been a server issue.
-
Everyone who says "but this would force people to play a role they do not want to" 1. no, you could simply continue to queue as killer and eat the queue just as you do rn 2. yea in a perfect world killer players wouldn't need to wait 20 min to play their preferred role but this is not a perfect world and any system that…

A fellow Doctor connoisseur! I understand the way you feel because I experience the same. I'm very introverted, socially anxious, and my voice doesn't help me engage in videogame communities either, for the very same reasons you explained. I, too, get killer anxiety. And contrary to what happens to most, it's even worse in…

Billy, Nurse and Blight are the strongest. I'd argue that Billy and Nurse are on the same level, Blight is slightly behind. Then come Huntress and Spirit. Though Huntress in the hands of a very skilled Huntress main is on par with Billy and Nurse tbh. Wraith and Slinger are good but on the weaker side. And then there's…
-
In my games, medkits, flashlights, and toolboxes came in clutch multiple times tbh. Especially the latter. Gen speeds are already insane so if you add toolboxes into the mix they get even crazier. I admit that totems are useless. But I love doing bones and I love getting bloodpoints for it, and besides they are multiplied…

Doctor, Legion and Unknown :3
-
I started playing way less back in 2022 and completely dropped the game in 2023. Just came back a couple months ago. Reasons for the break were that my previous PC was getting old and the game performance was terrible and that the friends that I used to play with weren't playing anymore. Now I just main killer and…
-
THIS. Overheat was unneeded and Overdrive is just stupid. OG Billy was perfect and probably my favorite killer to go against in all DBD history. Wish they would just revert him.
-
I don't mind playing against Huntress but I sure got her lullaby burned into my eardrums holy #########.
-
Any short-tempered (even better if they're on the older side of things) killer with Legion. Deathslinger, Dracula, Houndmaster, Oni… Imagine how annoyed they would be at having to team up with a bunch of teenagers, lol. Singularity and Unknown sounds like a cute duo. Idk why it just does ;_; Doctor and Chucky. They could…
-
They are much crazier in 2v8 considering the survivor/gens they need to complete ratio is smaller and there are zero slowdown perks/add-ons. I do agree that gen speeds are still a problem in 1v4 but this is wayyyyyyy worse.
-
Big agree!!!!
-
To begin with, gen speeds are insane and there's no arguing with that. However, I think that the worst problem in 2v8 is that it depends a lot on the killer duo you get, even more than in 1v4. In 1v4, killers on the weaker side of things can compensate their own weaknesses by running perks that synergize with their powers…
-
The ratio is the same as for 1 v 4 (4 survivors per killer) so, following your logic, those 250% BP boosts to survivors should be happening in 1v4 as well. And yet…
-
Just played a game as Wraith and I can confirm this happened to me too. It's not THAT much of a big deal but it is there and it makes him feel super clunky, lol.
-
I don't intend to call you a liar but there's NO way lmao
-
Yessssssssssssss the mode is so survivor sided that these are currently the incentives in my server. So many people who want to play survivor right now! Enough us vs them narrative holy #########.
-
Maybe Unbreakable could remain as is, but reactivate if everyone in the match is slugged, to counter killers who refuse to hook altogether without punishing those who use it as a temporary strategy. But I'm not fond of solving core game issues through perks. Kinda unrelated but big agree on reverting the extra 10s hook…
-
Never tried 2 vs 8 before and I'm hype to play both roles :D
-
If you make it so that new accounts need a minimum number of comments before they can create a discussion they'll just spam every discussion with random nonsense just to build up their comment number and be able to post.
-
My most hated daily ritual by far. Wish they would simply delete it and come up with something else lol.
-
As a Doctor main I can confirm that I always run Distressing :3c
-
I understand where you're coming from but I'd rather tunneling itself was directly addressed instead of nerfing perks to indirectly nerf tunneling. If this was implemented the hard tunnelers would continue tunneling, they would simply not bring Pain Res and choose other perks instead.
-
If you think this is year of the survivor let me tell you that you wouldn't last an hour in 2020 DBD. Let alone in the years before that. LOL.
-
I can risk hooking and basically secure a 3k but risk loosing a 4K, since he has time to look for hatch while I am hooking This is simply not true as hatch only spawns if there's only one survivor remaining in the game. The 4th survivor cannot "look for hatch" while you're hooking because hatch does not even exist yet.…
-
Idk I hook because I find that more fun than slugging folks. Hooking is the way the game is intended to be played. And I honestly don't think I'm penalized for hooking instead of slugging. Like yes of course there are mechanics that come into play when you hook survivors. But I like them being there and posing a challenge…
-
I don't know why the perk was ever nerfed in the first place. One of my fav survivor perks ever is back!
-
I find the lack of teasers whatsoever a bit underwhelming but I feel that All Things Wicked was a special case that should not be taken as the "standard" if that makes sense. It had by far the best teasers, yes. However, many chapters before had teasers too, and they weren't as cool as All Things Wicked's. But they had…
-
I don't necessarily agree with any of this. But the point of this poll is not to debate whether slugging for the 4K is right or necessary. It's just to see what killer mains in the forums do. Personally I only slug if I'm doing an adept or if the survivors were toxic. Otherwise I don't even bother. Playing hide and seek…
-
He's the goodest of boys, of course he deserves some pets!
-
Oh as a Doc main I can't wait to try it out in an impossible healing build >:)
-
It's not going to stop the tunneling, it will probably be abused by SWF, and I don't really agree with these patch-like solutions that require you to run a perk. Tunneling should be discouraged by basekit mechanics, not by perks. The same applies to genrushing btw, killers shouldn't need to rely on a trillion slowdown…
-
I like the stalking from afar thingy. And the fact that now survivors have double overall juice to give you, so you don't run out of power as fast as before. But I feel he could still use some QoL changes (like being able to pop your power by pressing a button instead of having to 99%). And his add-ons need further changes…
-
So now with Myers it's better to stalk from afar rather than close up? Or am I tripping
-
I frankly do not know why survivors do not gain passive condemned from carrying a tape anymore. The fact that they can retrieve them with pretty much no consequences is absurd.
-
Had a slugging Wraith running this yesterday :(
-
You quite literally said "concerted gaslighting attempt". It's in your comment, word by word. And that alone is already a delusional claim. Plus, if such an attempt intends to get a certain side of the game to get a perk made basekit (UB, a survivor perk, also stated by you), it's obvious from whom the "concerted…
-
Some maps have become crazy small. Yesterday I played a game in a version of Suffocation Pit that I had never seen before, but which was basically the size of a matchbox. I could pretty much see all my teammates and the killer at all times. Some maps needed to be reduced in size (and some still do… Eyrie of Crows and Red…
-
Me? I'm a killer main so idk what kinda tribalism you're talking about. I'm just making fun of the idea of survivor mains planning a coordinated attack on the forums to get this perk nerfed or that perk become basekit. Which is completely delusional lol. Don't pin the us vs them mentality on me, buddy. It's your way of…
-
"A concerted gaslighting attempt" dang survivor mains are truly evil masterminds, aren't they? With their macabre plots and manipulative shenanigans.
-
It depends on your playstyle but Head On can be fun and Poised and Solidarity were both recently buffed, so…
-
Rescuing the last survivor to get the 4 escape doesn't stop the killer from engaging with the game. Quite the opposite actually. Slugging for the 4K absolutely stops the slugged person from playing the game. You're lying on the floor like a moron waiting either to bleed out or for the last person to be found. I'm not even…
-
I love how we get countless threads by survivor players explaining that slugging has become even more prevalent than before, but in all of them the killer mains who can't be bothered to play survivor to save their ######### lives are like "no it hasn't". If you got a ton of folks saying that something is happening, maybe…
-
I can get that happening once. Hell, even twice, unlikely as it is. But over four times in a month? I'm not joking when I say I haven't seen a Sacrificial Ward do its job in the past 30 days. And both killers and survivors have been running Sacrificial Wards like crazy due to the amount of lunatics who keep sending…
