Over it...
I'm utterly frustrated with this game, players, wait times, match-ups, and last but not least the lack of people working as a team when playing as a survivor.
When I bought this game I fell in love with it and the game play and really enjoyed my time playing. That time has come to an end. Killers are super OP and leave no room for survivors to even get gens done let alone have the chance of making it out of the match.
Match after match I'm constantly pulling teammates off the hooks for them NOT to do the same in return. I can't tell you how many times I've sat on the hook to second stage or even death because teammates don't want to participate!!!!!!!!!!
I've tried so many times to give this game one more shot but I'm done. Way to go devs!!!!

Watch out for the incoming ######### storm from all the killer mains who love to condescend and put people down when they have a differing opinion.
All of what you have said is unfortunately true but really only pertains to the Solo Queue experience. People are going to rage at you for this comment and bring up anecdotal examples of how they got gen rushed by a sweaty red rank SWF team with multiple Prove Thyself, BNP's and an array of "toxic second chance perks"... As if that automatically negates the genuinely miserable solo experience.
I play a lot more killer these days, if only just to farm out BP's so I can level up my survivors to use fun and off-meta builds. That's the only way to enjoy the game anymore for me. The amount of times I've had a killer rage at me in post game chat / PS4 messages for being a gen rusher or a sweaty SWF squad when I'm playing solo and running and fast heals build, or a mettle of man/WGLF build... Really makes you realise a lot of killers will legit make up any excuse for why they lost. It's sad really.

Just out of curiosity,what rank are you?

If you think killers are OP, then please, play killer.
There´s a reason why survivors have long queues and it´s not because killers are OP.

Play SWF if you want to play on easy mode. Otherwise I'd advise playing killer and you'll realise that's really not the case.

This is why you don't only play one side.

To be fair at low rank killer does seem completely overpowered and, no offence to op, but they don't seem like they have 1k+ hours

I gave up solo queuing a long time ago. Survivor with friends, solo as killer.
Playing killer will also help your survivor experience dramatically, I always play better against killers I have played as, because you quickly learn what works and what doesn't, and aside from the select few killers that have pretty much no counter other than either luck or failure on the players part, knowing how to work around their power will mean you have a much much easier time.
Playing with friends, even if its just one other, is a much better experience, but unless you have 3 or 4, you're still largely at the mercy of strangers. In these games, we tend to just take niche/meme builds and try to have fun, if you're not taking it too seriously you wont be as infuriated by your team mates stupidity. Grab yourself pebble and urban evasion and go nuts.

I agree with your frustrations but honestly can't relate to the 'super OP killer' bit.
On a side note, I'm just awaiting the final level of the current pass. Once I complete the Rift, I'm going to be playing DBD far less.

Why are you blaming the DEV when your chief complaint appears to be bad teammates? The DEV can't control Player behavior. The game already has tons of incentives for Survivors to work together.

Sounds like you need a break

You’re at the stage where the game has ranked you up too quickly and you start facing better killers. This happens to everyone and you’ll get a grasp of looping and soon become much better.
As for solos they’ll always be inconsistent so if you plan on playing solo better to just get used to it

oh boy another "killer bad survivor good" post.
killers aren't your friend. they are supposed to kill you.
it's not the killer's fault you have bad teammates.
1 -
Oh boy another jaded killer main on the forums, how rare !!
trotting out the same line that 1000’s of others have said on the forums before him.
The sheer irony of this response.
2 -
assuming i'm a killer main lmao. grow up. the post gives off the impression that OP is a low rank survivor main who blames everything on their teammates and the killer.
i speak only the truth and i'll say it again:
IT'S NOT THE KILLER'S FAULT YOU HAVE BAD TEAMMATES.
2 -
Even with less than 1k hours, if you have more than 200-300 you should be out of the ranks where Killer is downright oppressive.
0 -
l’m not the one who came this post just ######### talk op.
maybe be more constructive next time
you know
grow up?
give a big boys response
apparently you have seen many of these posts, perhaps you could be mature and not respond.
l mean it doesn’t matter what he says you’ve seen it before right?
0 -
Yeah, you didn't come here to just to be mean to OP. Few people here did. This is a very simple issue that purely boils down to "It sounds like you're at lower ranks where Killer tends to perform better, and you can't blame the game itself for having poorly performing teammates".
What you came here for, really, is to be an ######### and make assumptions of and belittle people who are correct.
I do have sympathy for OP though, as I've been in this scenario many times as both a Killer and Survivor player. It's rough, and sometimes a break is the best thing for you, but afterwards some practice will definitely get you back to an even playing field.

where tf am i ######### talking? stop acting like a snowflake.
i said what i said. op acts entitled on the forums, maybe you should tell them to grow up instead.
0 -
A snowflake
ok
although it would be nice if you didn’t get so precious and offended when someone else commented on you comment
you know like l commented on what you said then you got upset and told me to grow up and called me snowflake.
lol irony post no.2
you are getting good at this.

In your post you talk about your teammates doing nothing, not rescuing you from hooks, generally just not participating in the match. Then you state killers are op. If you are going to come here and whine, at least be logical.
if your teammates are as bad as you claim, then a blind monkey with one hand could play killer a win. How exactly is the killer supposed to help your brain dead teammates?
just so we are all clear here..... if your teammates and yourself play bad and lose, killer OP?
good god the whiney people on these forums

I'm coming at it from the opposite end. I'm a killer main who has made it to red ranks and now I'm not having fun anymore. I've never been one to just destroy survivors (unless they are all dumb potatoes) but I'm 300 hours into the game and I've made it to rank 4 killer. I really can't compete against a team of reds with anyone except Spirit or sometimes Doc because I go for hooks and reds get those gens done so damn fast. No matter what hex I run it seems to get cleansed within a minute of trial start. Even ruin undying if you double that time doesn't always give me great value. Last rank reset I went from rank 5 down to 9 and then spent a whole day de-pipping down to rank 15 so I could have fun again. I've ranked back up to 7 now and I'm going against red SWF squads almost exclusively and it just isn't fun anymore, the matches are very one-sided towards survivor and gens are almost done at 6 hooks unless I play "toxic". So it's either have fun playing chill against low and mid ranks or stress and sweat against reds. It's a slog. I'd disagree that killers are OP as a whole. I really think it depends on who is playing the killer and how much time they have in the game.
It has forced me to look at other ways to play and I've started solo queueing survivor knowing that it isn't the optimal experience but I've had fun. I can just chill and work gens or try to work on my looping or unhooking skills. Yeah, teammates don't always unhook and that's frustrating but it isn't the same as having to go against 4 sweaty reds! I have discovered just how fun SWF can be and I'm trying to do more of that. Playing survivor has helped me be a better killer also, so there's that.
TL;DR - Plenty of other ways to play, but you are right that at certain points the game can get unplayable.

May I suggest "Getting Over It with Bennett Foddy" as a relaxing alternative?

This is a silly response, and reflects badly on you. You have no idea if that person is a so-called "Killer Main" or not. Most people here play both Killer and Survivor. Your rhetorical trick, attacking the speaker, doesn't answer the fundamental point made. It is the job of Killers to kill Survivors. It is the job of Survivors to escape. They have mutually exclusive goals, and neither of them are responsible for helping the other side. The person you attempted (poorly) to attack is 100% correct, and when you could not refute the point, you engaged in a fallacy. Please grow up.

Killer main here who has 2k hours, killers are not OP and half of them are easily bullied
1 -
Well thank you
l was simply pointing out the fact that he was complaining about another post about killer bad/survivor good
and the irony of him using the same expression that has been said many many times in the forums.
Just a side note, As this reflects poorly on me, who will be judging me on this?
People on the internet l don’t know?
lnstead of white knighting this person try looking at the way he spoke to OP
this reflects poorly on you as a judge of character.

I could care less about that person. I'm not a "White Knight" as you put it; I'm not even a nice person. What I do care about, in this medium, is accuracy. This is a forum and debates are about points. While I do not care about that person, I do care about the point he/she made. You failed to refute it. You engaged in a rhetorical fallacy instead. That tells me you KNOW you couldn't refute it. That is why the behavior reflects badly on you. Instead of debating it, or conceding the point, you chose to try and undermine that person's point in an inappropriate way. To put it in a computer games term, you tried to hack (cheat). So while I don't care about the person you responded to, I do care about that. It makes me care about you; do you really want to make yourself the object of my rhetorical obsession?
So, let's get back to the statements made and the debate itself. Can you refute that person's point or not? As a reminder, that poster pointed out that the Killer's job is to prevent Survivors from escaping, i.e. kill them. He pointed out it is not the job of the Killer to help the Survivor's achieve their goals. Please answer this point or concede it.

Survivors need to be less altruistic, or at least more careful about it. Being too quick to rescue is the #1 rookie mistake that gets a team killed

Why would l need to concede?
What should l be conceding
l’m not arguing his point l couldn’t care less about his point
l was simply stating the IRONY of him complaining about another post about a subject then stating something that has also be said many many times
The content is irrelevant, The irony is.
The fact that you are trying to take issue with this and equate it to hacking is almost quite bizarre.

Hrm. It makes me wonder if I need to explain the definition of irony to you. So now your defense is that you weren't even engaging in the debate at hand, but just wanting to take pot shots at those involved? That is like heckling from the cheap seats, lacking the courage to get into the arena yourself. What you should be doing now is establishing your point, supporting it with evidence, and/or conceding (like an adult) when you know you are wrong.
Why is this so difficult for you? How old are you? Even now in the post above, you are doing everything you can to avoid admitting that you screwed up. An adult eats crow when they are wrong. I do it myself from time to time. So again, either get into the ring and state your position on the topic being debated, or cry off. The longer you try to play rhetorical games, the more this entire thread is going to become about me dissecting you and your posts. I'm sure that isn't what you want.
