Solo Survivor in 2.1.0 - A status report

Since the latest patch went live, the steamforums are full of complaining survivors telling us that the state of the game is unplayable, especially for solo survivors.

I guess around 80% of my playtime (2.500h) is killer and 20% for survivor.
I would call myself a killer main, without being too biased.

However, i decided to use this evening to try solo surviving in 2.1.0

As u might recognize at my rank, i am far away from the best survivors.

I played every game as David King, using the following Perks:

  • Self Care
  • Sprint Burst
  • Urban Evasion
  • WGLF

I dont bring any items or offering to the fog.

These are my results of 10 solo survivor games in 2.1.0

Double Pip: 1 Game
Pip: 4 Games
Black Pip: 4 Games
Depip: 1 Game

None of those games felt like i had no chance. Sometimes i made a wrong decision and died, somtimes the killer wanted to see me dead. The game experience felt like always and since i use urban evasion a lot, i didnt really feel the exhaustion nerf.

Long story short: I cant confirm a broken state of the game. As long as you use your brain and play it safe, u will usually end with a solid amount of BP and at least a blackpip.

Screenshots as proove for those who need it:

Game #1 - Sacrificed by The Shape

Game #2 - Survived The Doctor

Game #3 - Sacrificed by The Nurse

Game #4 - Nurse disconnected

Game #5 - Sacrificed by the Doctor

Game #6 - Survived The Nightmare

Game #7 - Survived The Pig

Game #8 - Sacrificed by The Trapper

Game #9 - The Nightmate disconnected.

Game #10 - Sacrificed by The Huntress

    Very good post. The thing is with all those Survivor complaints is about 99% of them haven't even played the new update before they started complaining, they just see nerfs and immediately give up...

    Thanks. Yes u think you might be right.
    A lot of the complains that i read made me shake my head.
