Safest bet for killer fun

Mixed lobbies

Just about the closest thing to a guarantee the killer has for avoiding a full swf.

I find that it limits the likelihood of anything more than a duo and allows me to freely use perks that are otherwise rendered useless in the face of full comms.

I don't find every swf to be swat squads, but the thing that irritates the most is how any swf can completely negate an otherwise fun and effective loadout. Since I don't run the meta, I just find the game more enjoyable when facing off against solos.

    And what about the fully swf? Are you saying make the maximum limit 3 instead?

    Instead of capping how many people can play together or limiting perks maybe a better solution is to cap how many of one item can be brought into the match


    Examples only 2 people can bring a flashlight 3 for medkits 1 for keys etc



    Since the unfun swfs tend to all carry either toolboxes or flashlights

    Doesn't matter if they are depip squads or not. You can feel the difference and it is like playing a different game.

    Maybe thats a good trade off, 2 player swf teams in mixed lobbies. Survive with a friend

    Not saying they need to limit it, just that I prefer a lobby when I see a variety of platforms.

    There are killers out there that enjoy a 4man( kudos to them). I want to play against others that experience survivor the same way I do; solo.

    Since picking lobbies with variety I have noticed a severe drop in the number of teams that can reduce my number of effective perks. The survivors play well and coordinate effectively as solos but are still subject to being cut from information due to a perk or addons.
