Console survivors

Hi guys, how y'all been?

So, what I want to ask, most to killers, but survivors can contribute as well, how's the matches against console survivors been going to you?

Myself I find that the 360's are WAAAAY smooth and sometives even doing de old "step left or right" don't help.

Besides that, holy smokes how they like to sit on a gen and spank the hell out of it. Even against my Oni they don't bother to heal, and always do "last second" rescues on hooks. They seem to spread as well, most of the time infectious don't catch anyone and I've been runing discordance on other killers and even that doesn't get much value against a party with 3 or 4 console survivors.

Don't know if it's been the same to you guys and I hope to learn a little more from you.

Btw, for the info: Red rank killer in South America Servers.

    Console survivors always play with 4 swf no matter what. (Minumum 2). They always tryhard. Not like PC survivors tho. They always abuse something if they find it effective.

    Wow it's almost like we have to compensate for worse controles.

    Actually playing survivor on controller is way better then kb & m, you get much more "smooth" actions and can do better angles in loops...

    Guys, please, don't get off point, just want to know how's been the matches against console survivors, just to know if it's just me or another killers get the same feelings, no harsh words, no poiting fingers =/

    Okay this is just attacking every console player. You really think that every lobby we are in has us in a swf? No because theres a magical thing called solo q. Most of us dont even like to use swf unless its for challenges or thats true for me at least. (See that im not generalizing the entire console community with my statement) so get your facts straight before bashing us.

    If you are getting Xbox players, all of us play 4 man SWF regularly because it's easy on our platform. If you get 4 solos on Xbox that is exceedingly rare. At least at high ranks. Willing to bet if they were as coordinated as you say it was probably Xbox.

    Haven't noticed a difference in my matches, but 360's have been harder, and I can usually tell if they aren't going to be as effective against the killer. Basic sidestep jukes have been a lot easier to pull off though.

    Still have to try killer with cross-play, but Destiny's Solstice of Heroes event is a real grind and is taking up my time.


    The only negative thing that I have to say is that there has been a sky-rocket in elitism coming from some of the community. I'm in the same boat as @Unicorn when it comes to being over seeing them, but I'm nowhere near as nice about it. I've pretty much only played console for 18 years and have always felt that consoles are the true gaming device because it is literally what they are built for.

    Good topic. As PS4 player, i got curious.


    But, looking in another way (from PS4 killer looking PC survivors)...

    Besides controller is better for survivor, PC survivors have some sudden side movements (go for one side and than to another quick as hell as the controller stick doesnt allow) only a mouse can allow, wich is a new thing to learn to counter, wich is cool.


    And the FPS thing... wich isnt cool.

    Discord is also a popular voice comm software. USB controllers exist as you said, but no, only console players use voice comms and controllers. Its a fact, because that person said it was. /s

    Being a console survivor myself, I find it incredibly painful how badly so many of them seem to play :/
