Kill Switch update: The issue affecting Baermar Uraz's Ugly Sweater has been fixed and the cosmetic has been reenabled in all queues with this update.

What happened to the game?

To preface this post: I've been playing DBD for about a year now, I played non-stop until about a month ago, and have amassed 1.5k hours into the game.

Now with that out of the way, why is the game all of the sudden so predictable? I don't know what it is about the game at the moment, but if I try to play survivor, I either loop a baby killer for 5 minutes and get facecamped, or I go play killer and go against a god squad/team of Epic players, and the occasional subtle hacker who has to pull out the blatant hacks when I start beating them. Now the problem isn't that these things are occurring, it's that they're ALL that occurs, every match I've played in the past few weeks without fail falls into one the categories I just mentioned. No more silly killers/survivors messing around, no more perk deviation, just the same crappy/meta perks on the same crappy/good teams. It's like there's no more 'normal' players who aren't exactly great at the game, but aren't bad either.

I don't care about balance either, I think the game is fine being extremely unbalanced, as long as there's a way to navigate the game without constantly feeling the power imbalance, but nothing prevents someone running a stealth Clown build from versing 4 man SWF's for every. single. match they play.
