This game is becoming a bully simulator

I feel like killer is already a oppressed class and is the least played role and in some situations the killler can do anything and the survivors can just loop ya for days while they t bag and flash light click, it’s even worse for new killers due to the poor match making like rank 20s getting Matched with rank 9s

    that's the reason why i love this game.

    I mean I'd hope killer was the least played role because 4 survivors and 1 killer are needed for a game to start.

    I suggest looking up videos on how to run loops correctly as a killer or just play a killer that circumvents loops one way or another (Huntress, Spirit, Nurse, Freddy).

    I didn't know BM = oppression lol (Killers can BM too btw)

    Matchmaking sucks for both sides in the highs and lows. Not just a killer issue.

    Nah not loops, I’m talking about god loops and how survs use dead hard to further prolong those loops

    Any of the killers that circumvent god loops (which I already listed) would work.

    Also bamboozle.

    Also picking a different target who's working on a generator.

    People shouldn't be forced into playing only a few killers if they want a chance to beat survivors, if someone want's to play clown they should be able to and feel like they have a chance at winning be it 2 hooks/kills.

    The same could be said for ruin why didn't people watch videos on how to handle it be hitting the skill checks or looking for the totem and even DR how to counter his moves, yet the devs went straight for the nerf on both off them to make it more easy on survivors.

    The killer is meant to be the power role take F13 took them ages to get it right and Jason was easy to bully around big time for ages till they made one change, they changed his rage so now the first half off the match the survivors can beat Jason up etc then soon as rage kicks in the tables turn and it's Jason turn.

    Some screencaps of the post game chat remind me of the Xbox live chat back in 2012, literally the same 12 year old insults.

    I'm 11 rank killer.

    In first game with a survivor team of 3s and 5s. This game is screwed.

    Do you know how many killers got flamed for saying "Just run X"? Before the Spirit changes (which I wont call nerfs because I still do fine with her) killers told survivors to just run Spine chill and they were flamed saying "Running a perk to counter one killer?"

    Well why would killers need to run a perk to counter a particular loop that may or may not be there due to map RNG? It just seems stupid to waste a perk slot for that don't you think?

    Of course I'm not blaming on you because I hope you're not the type to say "You can't tell survivors to run x perk" and I haven't seen you do it at all and I really don't like to make assumptions.

    Nah let's one up them now. Kill 3, and then stand in front of the last one in a corner with the hatch open.

    Then go play a different game like Civ like the director told us to while we take the game hostage or the survivor DC's.

    In horror movies the survivors win most the time. Idk I feel like that some killers feel like its should be butcher simulator, and wouldn't no one want to play a game just so someone can chase you catch you and throw you on a hook a few time. It's a hard game to get in a good spot on balance cause no one wants to be there just for the others entertainment.

    If the salty messages and people wanting to rub it in when they win would stop it wouldn't be so bad. Like I can get killed in Apex and the individual doesn't go out their way to let me know they got me.

    I think all that was learned through content creators. If we just come together and play the game without the mindset of making the other sides game as miserable as possible we would all have a better time with this game. Been playing since Jan of 2017 and would like to keep playing. Love this game see you all in the fog on Ps4.

    I have spoken. PS4 AnimalHeadSkull if anyone wants to add me I'm on quite regularly and play both sides.

    I wonder how long before they remove gens from the game and 4 survivors will be chasing killer around the map with weapons

    There is no "becoming", it's been a bully simulator on killer since the games release in varying degrees.

    Dead By Daylight was NOT made by Rockstar.

    All jokes aside, the rank 20s and 9s thing was an actual experience for me. They were all green. I was brown.

    I'd like to see BHVR take action against players that send salty messages through console messengers when it relates to their game.

    stop being so dramatic already. this game is balanced and killers are waaaay stronger than like 2 years ago.

    Yea you can do that but it's so boring doing that especially if the survivor is stubborn and makes you wait the entire 2 minutes till they hit struggle. Overall I'd rather slug and let them bleed out that way they're bored and I'm not.

    Whenever I'm getting harassed in the post-game chat, I become very offensive.


    If they are offended, it proves my point and shows them that they are hypocrites. If they think harassment is fine, then they should be fine if someone were to be extremely offensive.

    I fight fire with fire - and I usually end up winning.

    What horror movies you watching ? They usually get though a few dozen kills at least 2 in the shower alone before a single person makes it out

    I mostly agree with the butcher simulator but at the same time players shouldn't have so much leasure they can tbag, click and dance. They should have a real struggle to live. 4E really shouldn't happen. Not without a buttload of teamwork

    Sometimes I am happy to be on pc.

    I mean, I getting also sometimes toxic endgame chats, but they are actually very rar.

    Most of the time the endgame chat is either silent or friendly after my experience.

    Sounds some of you console guys walking through the hell^^.

    You can talk about this sort of topic without using language like "oppressed class", you know. That's silly at best and straight up offensive as hell to people that experience actual oppression in their lives. Unlike them, if you truly feel "oppressed" you can just... stop playing? Take a break? I'm sure they would love to be able to just take a break from being oppressed whenever they want 🙄

    And to some extent the same goes for bullying. If you mean genuine post-game harassment and messages then fair enough, that garbage is inexcusable and pointless. But if you mean in-game stuff like tbagging, flashlight clicking, SWF and so on then that's not really "bullying" at all.
