Not having fun as a killer anymore

I`m not having fun anymore playing killer, everytime I see those flash clicks I go mad and ignore that player and go for someone else. I`m rank 1 as a killer and some games are ok 2-3k maybe 4, but some games are so fast that I can`t have fun even with kills. I chase some dude and if I see that he is a tryhard I give up and go for someone else. The thing is you don`t have to be a god at survivor, just run every pallet/window that you see, loop the killer if you can and that is like 2-3 gens if the killer doesn`t give up the chase. I`m just wondering why are those "god pallets" and loops in the game at all ???? I play killer to smack some survivors not to break pallets, jump over windows, and do circles around some shack until I get dizzy.

Idk, maybe the game is fine the way it is and the devs can`t really do anything to change it. I believe the game was supposed to be a horror game but it`s not.

It`s very funny because if a new player checks the trailer when the game starts he gets the wrong idea of the game. I have matches as a survivor where I don`t even see the killer until the final gen is up, because if a good survivor wants he can keep the killer with him until the other 3 guys finish the gens but that also depends if the killer is that salty and wants that guy dead.

I`m not the first one with a post like this but clearly not the last one.

    "I have matches as a survivor where I don`t even see the killer until the final gen is up"

    Yep very true. I'd like to see new game modes and something to mix it up, rather than just continuing adding Killers and perks which usually don't change the game in any groundbreaking way. But the last few updates don't make me think that is going to be the case.

    I remember when I first saw Dbd i was so fascinated by its gameplay thinking id be this terrifying emersive experience. Then you get in and its a squad of Dwight's t-baging and moonwalking while shooting confetti out of there flashlights.

    The advice is usually the same. Play enough solo survivors at red ranks and you'll soon enough find new enthusiasm to play killer again.

    I play killer to smack some survivors not to break pallets, jump over windows, and do circles around some shack until I get dizzy.

    Well, this is the game we got. What do you even expect them to do? To just stand still so they're less inconvenient for you to clobber them?

    What it was supposed to be is a moot point. The game is successful because it's the way it is.

    Tbh I don't have fun as killer even when I win. I like the team aspect more as Survivor. It feels like you have more to lose as survivor.

    I'm assuming you are a newer player, or are you not? Because if you are, then my friend, I'm here to tell you all of us who got to rank 1 for the first time felt like you. You see most of us before reaching red rank were used to incompetent survivors, who did not know how to loop. And were scared to do the basic of the game such as touching a gen. But after reaching red rank for the first time, It basically becomes a new game. But all I can say is that you have to come in with a open mind, you have to accept that you won't always get 4 sacrifices. As a matter of fact you may only get 1 or 2 hooks in some games. It's just how all games works you win sometimes, and lose sometimes.

    I mean you're bothered by them doing their objective too fast but in same time you said you get 3-4k kills most of time so what is it? They're doing their objective just like ur doing yours and game don't need to be slowed down because of it 4k was never and never will be a balance
