So I have tried to play in different ways as Killer
First I just played like I did to win and I had a kill rate of 3,7, its mixed with all kind of Killers cuz this is not a data analysis and I didnt seperate everything now. Its just to showcase the difference here.
Today I decided to try to play "nice". I put on make your choice and played with "hooking" builds like make your choice, pop, call of brine etc. All kind of perks that promote me to go to gens and play in a "nice" way.
I had a MUCH harder time, I struggled hard and barely got the same results as from yesterday with my normal gameplay. I got a killrate of 2,2 on average. Keep in mind I played roughly 30 games in both days.
I got even teabagged and laughed on cuz I am "bad" btw how nice of survivors :)
I was hoping that with the update it has been easier but somehow it is even harder to win now with a nice gameplay mindset. Idk what exactly causes that or maybe I just had a bad day and played in general worse today than yesterday.
Anyway I have the feeling you still are forced to slug, tunnel and camp to win in most games which is sad and boring.
- * For those who misunderstand this post. Its not about how I cant get 4ks, it is in comparison between playing with or without camping, slugging and tunneling.*

There is literally nothing wrong with slugging, tunneling or camping. Just play how you want.

Idk man if you struggle to get kills in this patch as killer there is NO buff in the world that could help you.
Doing the chaser tome challenge rn and this is 2 out of 2 killer games so far today.

That is exactly what I am doing. As mentioned, I have tried it. It was just an experiment if those changes may have helped with that but it seems it didnt. However I do find camping rather boring cuz chasing is what I enjoy the most in dbd.

Have you been reading my post even? Also 2 games are not really much data to prove anything but ye go ahead.

Adapt your playstyle as match goes if it looks like your not winning then camp/tunnel and if it's start to look like you win then chase again.

Ok, here my 3rd and last one on killer for now. a 4k with 4 gens left on COWSHED - one of the most surv sided maps ingame.

Yeah, I don’t think literal face camping is time efficient honestly, proxy camping works though. And slugging for pressure is definitely effective. (Hook one or two specific survivors out and slug the others is my go to.)

Umm thanks for the advice I guess?

I mean I am glad you are proud of your 4ks but I dont really see what you are trying to do here lol. Glad though you enjoy playing Killer, but dont overdo it just some general advice.

if you can't 4k after these buffs in any playstyle then you can't be helped man. the game as killer is mind numbingly easy now...

What is wrong with everyone having the need to explain the game? xD Dont get me wrong I appreciate advices and tips but I mean... I dont need to explain to you how Trapper works right? xD

I've been playing Fair And Nice and it averages me like 1k lol but my hook count isdefinitely up.

I wasn’t telling you how to play, we were talking about different playstyles and I shared mine.

Nah didnt feel the need to tunnel or camp once so far. You are probably playing lower tier killers in which case, go ahead and do those but know that its kind of a crutch.
1 -
Oh I didnt really took at as it would be your own playstyle but maybe its my small brain unable to understand it lol

Lol survivors prestige 0 or 1 and you think you are somebody.

Ye I have to admit I have been playing alot Legion, Demo, Clown and Spirit (Which I havent touched since she was nerfed).

You completely miss the point in here. I am not "celebrating" anything, I am mind-boggled people like you are still struggling playing killer when its the most ez its ever been.
I would have done those 3 matches on survivor side much more (chaser/evader emblem challenge) BUT there is NO way to get these done quickly cause literally every killer camps and tunnels now - as people suggested you to do in here LMAO

Oh boy, revealing prestige in the end game is going to be an even worse version of grade judging, isn't it?

Wow, won 1 lvl selfcare users for Legion. They were DEFINITELY not newbies. Very good example, thanks for letting us know!

he's not wrong, playing killer is literally the easiest PVP experience I've ever played in a video game.

Man after the IW nerf i so want to pick up spirit. But i know how bad i am at m1 killers that it would just frustrate me. How was your experience with her?
0 -
You guys also completely miss the point. I say this patch is garbage for survivors and killers are way too powerful now. Also the last match was a swf on cowshed and I still 4k'd but hey, they managed to do ONE gen - must mean killer is balanced, right?
3 -
You are trolling right? You must be anyway not really gonna waste my time with you bud

Trust me it will get worse. We will see in the future prestige 30+ ppl beeing prayed on for beeing such gods.

just wait for survivors to learn how to play without DH. then games will become more tougher.

I don't think it's that. What I think it is that tunneling and camping increased your kill average overall and put you at a higher MMR than you would have been without tunneling and camping. I'm not saying you were wrong to do so; I'm just stating tunneling and camping was very effective pre patch.
Now that you're trying for hooks you're going to have some rough games until your MMR stabilizes at a level where you can do multiple hooks.
As an example, pre-patch when I hit Iri grades as survivor I would equip Dead Hard if I was having a rough time pipping up. As soon as I hit Iri One, I removed Dead Hard and nearly always had a string of losses until I went back to an MMR where I didn't need Dead Hard to escape.
I think that's why I'm having a blast with survivor post patch. I ran non-meta builds so my gameplay experience has improved as OTR is so much more effective at countering camping and tunneling than old DS. Survivor players who did use DH regularly prepatch are generally struggling since DH was so overpowered.
For Killers, tunneling and camping was incredibly effective before and is now less effective (it's too early to say how much less effective but my experience in survivor games is definitely better against tunneling and camping). That will make some games rougher if tunneling and camping was part of your playstyle before.
In my opinion, just stick to multiple hooks. After a short period of time your MMR will settle and your games will be more enjoyable and give more BP

It's funny how other killers come here to look down on you because "yOu DiDn'T gEt 4k, gIt GuD"...
They never cease to amuse me...

I mean its toxic game play- and unhealthy for the game but okay.

I also thought about that. Since I played the first day when the patch dropped for kills and I did got ALOT of 4ks and kills in general my mmr raised very high and therefore I got matched with way better survivors. I did feel that pretty damn heavy on my Clown for example. So ye you might be right about that, but yeah anyway sadly we all have to agree that tunneling, camping and slugging is just too effective to be tossed aside. However a small part of my heart wishes that chases would be rewarded aswell, I think I can say that the majority of us enjoys chases the most.

Well thats dbd forums for ya, sometimes it makes me question my life xD

That's not true you definetely should win most of your games now but winning all games is not possible. You haven't probably faced good swf and that's is still almost as bad as before with m1 killer. Wait before you reach higher mmr it's possible to win but usually hard.

No, it really isn't, but okay.

This patch already buffed killers and it is really not hard to get 4K-3K most of time. I don't know what you need more?
1 -
Well considering the 100% bp bonus was on survivor all day because the killers have camped all day- abs no one wants to play survivor pretty much shows how unhealthy it is for the game.

reading is a very rare skill as it seems.

The 100% bp bonus on survivor was a bug, that's why it's been killswitched temporarily until they can fix it.

Against noobs, sure. I can make Pig look OP against these level of players and ask for nerfs.

"If you don't 4K, you're bad"
Also plays Legion with Thanataphobia, making it so Generators take 115 seconds to do along with PR.
Your post doesn't even have anything to do with what the OP was saying

Well reading can be quiet difficult you know.
