Ok? thats a lot of work for such a pointless statement.
33 -
I wonder if he included them because a lot of the survivor arguments here point to similar changes as survivor nerfs?
3 -
This would mean Wraith currently has no nerf applied to him whatsoever.
That's pretty cool.

I really need fov at 90.
0 -
People making lists and holding onto things from years back like an ex-lover.
I mean look at some of these....
- Nerfed bloodlust - Yet you forget to add the fact that they ADDED Bloodlust in the firstplace so it’s still a net buff compared to day one
- Fixed an issue that caused Legions blades to stack causing extremely long mending times - Yes because bug fixes to game breaking bugs are nerfs now 🤣
And again, people wonder why the developers dont take their complaints seriously?
17 -
I swear this game is so segregated. Please let it go. Doesn't help that you listed a bunch of bug fixes as "nerfs"
7 -
"Fixed an issue that caused Legions blades to stack causing extremely long mending times"
Devs fixing game breaking bugs = Bias.
Nice.
6 -
I would say by just assuming how the post is build up, half of the things mentioned are obviously wrong in a nerf-list.
3 -
You literally just copied and pasted this. And half of these are bug fixes. Please get an actual list of nerfs and not bugs then make a post like this
1 -
I get the point you're making, but I'm not sure we can strike a direct comparison. Survivors share everything, but Hag's Traps and Billy's Chainsaw (for example) are completely separate things that they can never share. By numbers alone, there is more to adjust for Killers.
1 -
Killers have been favored since summer 2018 (around clown release if i recall)
Your post doesnt prove anything since most of the things you added are bug fixes, jesus, you even added "pallet vaccum for survivors" when it was removed a looong time ago.
Also whats the point in bringing changes that were released in 2016 when the meta was different, and the game was totally different? Then survivors could do the same, botany knowledge is the first perk that comes to my mind.
4 -
That's what survivor players say tho. Self care nerf,no more pallet vacuum,etc when talking about survivor nerfs cause barely any happened recently except like what,MoM and what else. This post is dumb regardless tho
0 -
Jesus, is this what the game has come to now? Tit-for-Tat for each side? My sides better than your side? And people wonder why this whole community is becoming toxic!
2 -
This has to be a troll post, ironic considering the last discussion you posted was about blocking people to "bait and troll". There is just so much extreme nitpicking here it hurts.
Whether something was overpowered or unfair and needing balancing.
- Standing infront of a hook to completely block unhooks.
- Crouching over hag traps.
- Huntress not losing PWYF stacks when throwing.
Actual bugs. Because bugs are nerfs apperently.
- Pallets only breakable from 1 side.
- Cannibal's chainsaw causing impassable areas.
Game-breaking.
- "removed the ability to be able to use items that belonged to other killers (i.e. myers with a chainsaw etc.)*" The same loadout exploit that allowed anyone to equip any item or perk. The same exploit that allowed killers to equip bond.
- Legion's mending time exploit.
Has context with another update.
- Mangled nerfed 20% from 25%, because this was also when they nerf healing times from 12 to 16 seconds.
- No grabbing survivors jumping into hatch, which is a trade-off for being able to close it.
Or not even in the game anymore.
- Blinding the killer during pickup animation to make them drop.
I do dearly hope the devs never listen to you about balancing advice.
6 -
Just because others are straight up wrong and list stuff that's clearly not working as intended being fixed as nerfs doesn't mean you should join them in being wrong by doing the same. And when I say "not working as intended" I mean stuff like the Legion mending bug or the Wake Up bug.

ah more whining and less adapting

I think any honest person grounded in reality knows the truth. A lot of killers need a buff.

KILLERS HAVE GOTTEN MORE NERFS THAN SURVIVORS AND IT’S A FACT
... that I made up. Fixed.

It's sad when you come on these posts and can clearly see who the majority of the forums are. No surv main will ever admit that they CLEARLY have an advantage over killer because they like how easy it is, and how they get to bully and manipulate the killer into madness. Don't you want a challenge? Playing survivor now is like shooting fish in a barrel. Are you guys proud of that? Do you really think your that good? I wish just once you would peak your heads over are 20ft fence and see things from the other side. We peak over your 6ft fence all the time.
0 -
While I agree with fixing bugs. A bug fixed does not a nerf make.
However, your stance on bloodlust couldn't be any more hypocritical given the point you are wanting to make with your post.
Bloodlust was introduced to combat infinite loops. The fact a chase can take long enough for bloodlust to take affect is a clear sign of poor game design.
Sure a killer can choose not to break a pallet and circle it indefinitely. THAT would be the fault of the killer entirely.
Sure there are some things on the list that shouldn't be, but it's a form of argument the other side, whichever side you are on wants to ignore and dismiss entirely.
0 -
No the point was he was talking about how killers have been nerfed starting from day one.
They added a mechanic to buff killers then nerfed it but if you’re counting from day one then adding the mechanic in the first place is still a net buff
1 -
Wait where did you find this golden item?

This is not a case of "Survivors are so entitled and they won't listen to the plights of killers" Its more this post is clearly not a well thought out or reasonable argument, listing fixing game-breaking exploits as "nerfs".
It is childish case of "we have more nerfs than you so have it worse" regardless of the scale/context or if it was even a nerf in the first place.
1 -
The impact of the nerfs are more important than the amount of them. I've said this before, if today's survivors were playing in the 2017 version, you would be happy to get 1 kill.
And seriously, a lot of those are just bug fixes and really small, insignificant things.
1 -
"they dont agree with me! It must be because they are all filthy survivor mains!"
lmao with your post, if anything this website specifically is the most """killer biased""" of the whole DBD media sites, cant make a post asking anything that would benefit or be healthy for survivors without getting called a survivor main.
3 -
Really? I suggest you read more posts on here then, because all I ever see is survs wanting killers nerfed into the ground, and damn sure won't admit they have the power role. They say killers are STILL to OP. Need proof? Look at the nerf mori posts, the nerf Billy, nerf Freddy, nerf GF, nerf doc now, nerf hag, nerf huntress. Did I forget any? I'm sure I did....
1 -
You're just showing how much bias you have by claiming one side complains more than the other.
1 -
And all the threads with killers whining about leaving the game because X got nerfed and the evil devs are catering to much to those evil experience ruining survivor mains? Nowadays I rarely see threads asking for nerfs that aren't blatant baits or made by extremely inexperienced players
You need to browse these forums more, these last weeks have been nothing but whining about ruin and the devs hating every killer, the last time the community was acting so utterly stupid was when the exhaustion changes were announces.
2 -
Git gud bro, watch some streams, learn how to play. The devs don't tell you these things for no reason, they tell you because you are unfamiliar with the game and need to see it from an unbiased perspective. Maybe even try red rank survivor from time to time?
0 -
Someone give this man a cookie for telling us that the earth is not flat.
0 -
Why wouldn't they complain about ruin? It's a LEGIT COMPLAINT. How many posts were on here before whining about ruin and caused it to GET nerfed? I'm pretty sure no killers were whining about it before the nerf. To say killers are just whining because ruin got nerfed is RIDICULOUS. I bet you'd be on here crying rivers if tool boxes or keys got nerfed, but we all know that will never happen...
0 -
Hahahahaha.
I've been playing for 3 years, got over 1k hrs, and have hit red rank multiple times on PS4. But yeah, I just need to get gud right? Don't drink the bong water, it's very bad for you... 🤷♂️

Wow awesome you play the game!
0 -
There were literally no posts about ruin being too powerful, not here, not on twitter, not even on reddit, every post made complaining about ruin was usually dismissed as a bait, its a decision the devs thought would be overall healthy for the game despite it no being applied in a correct way or in the correct moment. At this point, all these threads are nothing but whining from people that simply can not live without a simple perk, despite the buff doc got and the amazing killers we have gotten recently.
And there you go again, trying to call me a survivor main for not agreeing with you. Color me surprised.

A month before you.

The more I read this the funnier it gets. Did you even read what you posted?
- removed the killer's ability to be able to fly (EXPLOIT)
- removed the ability to be able to use items that belonged to other killers (i.e. myers with a chainsaw etc.) (EXPLOIT)
- changed the hag's pallet breaking animation in such a way that it makes the hag look downwards when she breaks a pallet, instead of forwards (LITERALLY A BUFF)
- Removed the ability to be able to reduce the effects from wiggling by hitting a wall while carrying a survivor (EXPLOIT)
- removed the ability to be able to earn bloodpoints from hitting a survivor that is on a hook (BUG)
- Fixed an issue that caused The Legion's Nasty and Filthy Blade add-ons to stack, causing extremely long Mending times (BUG)
- removed the ability to be able to set traps through staircases and certain floors (BUG)
It's literally filled with stuff like this instead of actual nerfs.

I'm on his side. There is no stress playing survivor. I play one match as killer and I don't want to play anymore. Hell half the time I quit before the end of the match. Anyone who says otherwise is a survivor only or swf #########.
0 -
That makes zero sense half of the things you listed were game breaking bugs totally killer nerfs
2 -
It doesn't matter who received more nerfs than the other. Are you dense? Is this really how you justify one thing or another, by looking at a list of nerfs? It's the equivalent of saying it's fine to nerf X,even if it shouldn't be nerfed, by saying Y had 100 things nerfed.
It doesn't matter. What matters is the specific nerf that is done and whether or not it is justified by itself, not by other nerfs. I know you're just trying to make a point, as survivors always list out their dozen nerfs they've received, but even still.
