I am almost at my tipping point for Dead by Daylight
Im am truly sorry to all the people this may offend, but things have gone too far, and I have to voice my opinion before everyone i know stops playing this game, but i fear it might be too late. Also, before i explain my reasoning i'd like to re-assure that I have played this game 800+ hours (mostly survivour) and watch many content creators, so I know what im talking about.
Firstly id like to point out that this game, always have been, HEAVILY, survivour sided, and winning is completely based on if the survivours make a mistake or not. This is quite obvious when you only play with other experienced players, or if you just play with voice chat and people that at least have good hearing and can learn things without having to do it 100 times. No matter how good the killer plays, the game is always ultimately up to the survivours, if they chose the right path, and they dont make any mistakes, then they can choose if want to win or not. The best way to comprehend this is to imagine 100 matches, and in every match each survivour have combo/ the best perks in the game, each have comms, and the items are always 2 super-kits, a hook-box, and a 'lets-all'-leave-together-key' (the best 4 item combo by far), as even if 2 die the other can escape via the key (which can be grabbed off a dead guy as well). then imagine these 100 matches were all these 4 people against 100 different killers, and each time they chose a map (with a 99% of getting it as 4v1), as well as none of them EVER afk or make a single mistake. I think the escape rate would be close to 80-90%. and to be completely honest behaviour, I am bewildered where you all get your stats. as these stats ive said is pretty much the exact same statistics me and all my friends, and content creators against 4 mans get.
The problem of course is that not everyone is these people, heck, most people are actually noobs, which makes complete sence, as they are the ones most exited about the game and probably got it recently because if a licenced chapter, because their friends play it, or because they think it looked good/fun to watch. but these people dont realise that the people they watch have been playing for thousands of hours and since years been powering through the more and more painful people, asits always been the people using/obusing the game to have fun while wasting/ruining the time of some that just wants to play the game, or someone like me thats palying killer just so i can be a fair killer because of how many unfair survivour there are that are making way too many people cry.
I woke up today, and I am not happy to say i almsot cried thinking of how survivours would abuse the upcoming ptb changed. You all know EXACTLY why the blledout timer is 4 mins, and i STILL have to slug people longer somtimes to secure 2k/3k, but that i am forced to play like this is not my fault, and i am so pissed at anyone that says, just play the game ffs and you will see the state its currently in.
So ive been playing only killer for a while, and most matched I play as killer, regardless of which i am playing, I am getting swf and survivours with MORE hours then me, which is pathetic of your system, as of course i fail AGAIN as i cant even improve as im being bullied all the game which lasts just over 5/6 mins anyways as the others are ALWAYS doing generators while 1 makes ZERO mistakes and runs me arround all game while forcing me to break pallets, which removes the only thing that allows me to catch them. Once i get 1on hook 2 gens are done, 1 unhooks while 1 chase another and hook them for there to be 1 gen left (good outcome) or exit gates powered, the unhooked surv heal in 8 seconds by themselves/ the unhooker if they have the medkit. by the time i go to the last gens they pop, there is a person on each gate, and i hit one of them, so they run to the other and they all bodyblock. The best case scenario, which funnily enough is super common because of how sadistic people have got, is to leave the person on the hook, as this means they can all comtinue working on the final gen (sometimes with the toolbox if its not a sabo-box) while the other goes to a gate, and even if they let the first person die on hookfor some reason, there is still 2 of them, so while i go to the gate, the one on the gen does the other one,and then they take a hit. So best case scenario you get 2 kills as they sacrifice themsleves on hook.
Anyone that thinks "oh, you should jsut play a better killer" should go play a different game. How Dare other people be so rude to me after shitting on me and bullying me while playing so well, then telling me how to play better which are all lies as there was nothing to do, and when i tell them that calmly, and explain that their start is too op and that i wish the game didnt allow them to do it, they just get angry and tellme this is just the game. So how dare the game to require me to play dirty, require me to use only a select few of the hundred perks at my disposal, only to be able to do nothing because im not a ranged killer, and they force me to break everypallet. I am gobsmacked. I am ran arround all game and i stills see so many pallet they could have ran me for 10-15 mins with them, but they didnt need to as they escapes asap. All I want is to play any killer i want to, or heck, I might even get on survivour for the first time in many months, but im too discusted at what so many of them do that i dont want to. heck i dont feel like playing this game anymore if this is what just keeps happening.
If you think that I am an outlier, you are so wrong its not funny
The game needs to be worked on, please stop adding stuff thinking it will fix it.
As the greatest chef of all time told me. "the secret ingrediant, is what you decide to leave out", I feel so very stongly, that dastically changing the game yet again will only be the tipping point for this game

Survivors are constantly being nerfed patch after patch. You proved the point yourself. There are no more (I am exaggerating to prove point if someone decides to take me literally) "baby survivors", because the game has become so damn killer-sided, that anyone who had less then 500 hours in game has just such a bad time, that he quits. Official statistics (that exclude all the DC's making average game way more killer sided) already say killers win way more then survivors (61%).
The reason you are playing against better survivors with more hours and experience and skill is, that the game is HEAVILY imbalanced toward killers. Same skill and experience = killer won. So you need to get much better survivors for them to stand a chance. And even after these circumstances, official number clearly said 61% killrate.
Also I have very hard time believing you are survivor main. Everything you wrote SCREAMS of entitled killer main.

I really dont know what to say anymore.
i am literally bullied all the time in matched as killer, by things that people try to defend by saying "but its so good"
while when i play survivour i only go against the only a few types of killers which destroy my noob teammates and me and my friends are required to carry the whole game. Just for the killer to say "yeah well get gud"
this game is such a dissapointment for me when i play either kilelr or surviivour, as people just want to ruin the time of the other side and win by any means they know possible.
unfortunately ever since the hook/breakdown patch, I have only been bullied by people that just sit on the hook after running me arround , knowing i will down them and chase their teammates which are of course doing bloody gens as i cannot freacking hook them EVER.and if you listened to my explaination of each game lasts arround 6-7minutes, then you would know they only need 2 hooks, as breakdown lasts 2 minutes.
do you know how absolutely devilish behaviour would be to let all survivours get up whenever, when they already get themselves every possible freaking perk to combat it, while we can do nothing but chase another survivour, but wait, there are none nearby because they lead me away from them to a hook that was sabod... i then cant do anything, Be it endurance from soul guard, unbreakable to let theoir teammates get them in 15 seconds or get themselves up, were gonna live forever to do taht really fast, or even instantly with for the people, i hope you get my point.
survivours are absolutely destroying killers using busted ass strats that have always existed, yet somehow buffed even more? and if the killers power doesnt directly counter their strategy, and thesurvivour makes no mistakes, you cant win, and usually just break pallets and chase 1 or 2 people all game.
who actually finds this fun?
