The Pig Pen Hangout
Comments
-
Fellas I don't like what i'm seeing out there. I've had multiple games against Pig recently and they all refused the snoot boop. Even in Chaos Shuffle I had one shake their head no and run from me!!!!
What's going on!? Who is responsible for training the most recent batch of recruits!?
2 -
I dont know but ive had similar experiences. There are a lot of non-believers out there. Take care of yourself.
1 -
There are some bad people in here!!! Also is it just me or is chaos shuffle sweatier then normal dbd?
2 -
Its absolutely sweatier. This is due to offerings, items and addons not being randomized. As killer you get optimized survivor groups when you have no slowdown whatsoever and as survivoor you get killers with very strong addons that tunnel and camp because you have no perks to defend yourself.
The mode really shows how dependent the game is on these perks.
Sadly…

Yeah, they’ve been aggressive lately. Remember that one super aggressive and toxic Pig we played against? I think it’s because some Pig mains are new or are just growing in toxic numbers.

Good question. I could write a page on this, but I'll give you the tl;dr version of my thoughts. It's sweatband sweaty and everyone just needs to relax a bit. The novelty wore off for me quickly once I seen the mix of bad matchmaking, sweat, and toxicity. As always though, user milage may vary.

Hate to see it Atsu. I just want to boop all their snoots into submission 🔥🐽🔥
2 -
Wait… in here? Who’s the Judas denying boops in our Cult of the Pig? OINK! *snort 🐷
It’s a shame, unfortunate, really. Do I sense a “us vs them” Pig war coming? 👀 🐽

Piggy: Endgame
"I thought by eliminating half of the Pig mains (those that dont BOOP), the other half would thrive."

Oh no not a Pig civil war. If there is ever a history of video games in schools in 100 years this will go down as another war caused by religion/cult. Now obviously we all know who is in the right basing it off what the sacred book of pigs says.
2 -
Haha! Spot-on.

All us Pig mains gathered at the great supper. Have it documented for centuries that as we all ate one person oniked “Some of you will betray us”.
@Nun_So_Vile 😂😂😂

😂
I didn't even think of that. 2,000 years later history is repeating itself.
We must prepare ourselves!!!
Not my best work.

This person we ate, they are on the table with an apple in their mouth yes?

I think it has been both, honestly. Granted, I am pretty chill most of the time and maybe what most people consider "sweaty" is just not a big deal to me, but I've seen a lot more attempts at boops and even when playing with friends as survivor (I don't do solo survivor anymore) I've found most games go pretty well. But, again, I am usually pretty chill myself. Could also be an MMR thing, I know I am not super top god tier MMR where everyone has to sweat their butts off to keep themselves among those elite few.
1 -
I mostly play soloq survivor and it sadly has been a horrible experience foor me and Jill. Had to quit the game yesterday because it started to only be frustrating and thats not what a game is supposed to be.
Cant say, that the normal queue is much better though.

Hey... just realised it's my forum anniversary...
And my first game of DBD back on the 15th May 2023 solidifying Amanda as my maìn.
My first ever kill... and I've never seen this happen ever since xD
Cheers to you all!
^🐽^ 🍷

Happy Cake Day/Forumversary! You are a most valued member of The Swine Society.

A big, fat BOOP to you friend!🐽

Arigatou Gozeimasu!
While it hasn't helped with managing my DBD obsession/life balance… I do want to take a moment to say thanks for being so welcoming to I… especially given my relatively short time with the game… a lot of communities tend to dismiss low hour players.
I don't exaggerate when I say learned a lot reading about Pig through all your posts over the first half of the year (including you guys @AbsolutGrndZer0 @Vanishlord and others here) . It was just odd talking points here and there, but I got inspired with a lot of little tid bits to try many things off it and realised just how much freedom Amanda has with perks just by virtue of the fact she isn't dependent on slowdown to keep the game going like other killers. I considered dropping a line here to this group pretty early on, but who wants to be the awkward noob knocking on the door right? 😁
Then of course we had the near destruction of our head traps, which forced our collective hands… all notions of shyness just died immediately… like a glorious call to arms 😅
I am still, and believe we should all, be very proud of that collaborative effort. The message was constructive, clear and fair… but also strong and unwavering as well. I consider it one the healthiest discussions I've seen in the forums, where even people who disagreed still respected the points being raised. While I don't hold an illusion it was our voices alone that swayed the change, I definitely think we presented a very strong argument that made that decision much easier for BHVR ^^
With that, I just want to say, may all your slow release toxins be pure, your head trap timers never falter, and your snoots forever firm in our never ending quest for boops. 👉️🐽

Some people will say the longer you play a game, DBD in particular, the more cynical, conniving, and toxic you become. It's not the case with a lot of us even though over the years you'll be tested constantly by Jigsaw himself to see how much more you can take before you become a Pig player you never wanted to be (judaspig oink!); But when you remain you…that's when you become a Based Pig! Keep it up, and continue to enjoy the game we all have a passion for oink! Happy 1st anniversary, fellow Piggy main! 🐷

So funny thing, for about a week now I've been unable to actually post, the comment second never properly loaded… So I on a whim tried turning off my Ads Blocker addon for on these forums, and voila! I can post again. This site doesn't even have ads so why it's interfering with comments suddenly I have no idea, but hey. I'm back!
2 -
Agreed, people really were a lot more respectful then I expected on that. It was definitly one of the healthies disscusions I have seen on here too. We also proved that if you work together we can acomplish a goal. That is why I think we stand out in terms of a group of killer mains not to brag but we worked together and we didn't argue at all which I think is very impressive for a killer that has a large variety of ways to play as pig. Lets hope we can get through the other half of the year and many more to come with our current attitude.

I suspect this to be a conundrum of sorts within DBD. I talked to @Nun_So_Vile a couple days back venting about high MMR and getting utterly overwhelmed by it when not even trying to play like that (no gen regress perks, scream build, or top add ons , or sweaty playstyle) and when we group up we get the hardcore ruthless killers that will tunnel or camp at 4 gens.
One side feels that they need to rush gens and use the best builds and don’t trust friendly killers because they fear the possibility of being hooked and camped or tunneled out because of so many games of the same issues occurring for them, while the other side feels the need to secure a kill asap before all gens are done, even if they’re evidently not flying back to back.Everyone has been susceptible the extremities of DBD, but line of understanding the roles have been blurred intentionally. Meaning, where some come on to have fun, others are downright there to make your experience as miserable and mundane as they possibly can; inside and outside the game. I had a Kate main message me awhile ago about being surprised that I wasn’t a camping Pig and I told her not all of us are here to induce stress upon ourselves and others and that some of us just want to chill and have a fun game.
Solo is chaotic, high mmr forces you to play a certain way or use certain perks to win, etc etc UNLESS you go in to just try and have fun and not have high expectations of a game where it isn’t sweaty.
Here’s to the fun times. 🍻 🐷

Great points!
I mostly try to play in a way that I would also like to play against.
It's great for that reason, that Piggy gets rewarded for spreading hookstages and downing different survivors with slowdown on all of them.
This makes me unintentionally tunnel a lot less than I might do otherwise (these situations, where you just chase what is in front of you, but that one has just got off hook).
Survivor truly is that way sometimes. Especially in solo one fears that, if you give some killers a small advantage, everything crumbles. Therefore many just play extremely safe, which also results in rather boring matches with fewer interaction.
I think this comes down to the fact that awful matches tend be remembered a lot more than good ones. One bad match and many people will try to avoid having a similar experience at all costs.
What many don't realize however, is that loosing or winning does often not make the match fun.
You can win but have no fun at all and loose while having an absolute blast.
Maybe that's also why so many Pigs refuse to BOOP.
1 -
I miss those days where we all just had fun, win or lose. Boops were life! 🐷
These old 2019-2021 shorts I made make me want to see how often I can get those kind of games again where we would all have random fun, even at high MMR.

Guys I managed after almost two years to finally get two of my friends back on dbd!!! I am hoping I can keep them on it since they didn't play it a lot I am hoping their lobbies will be easier. Problem is we don't have any of our stuff because we're on Xbox and all our stuff is on playstation😭Not even my pig 😭
2 -
Fingers crossed my friend. If you both don't have all your stuff then Chaos Shuffle might be the mode to play.

Good times become good memories, but bad times become good lessons.

So since we have some new recruits, I think it's time to post the ULTIMATE GUIDE TO THE PIG by our Resident Fog Whisperer, Scorpionz. While some things are out of date due to addon and basekit changes, overall the important parts of the guide are still relevant today!
2 -
This video was my bible! I played for a week in custom games practising everything he discussed there, before I got the courage to play a real game 😁
2 -
Yaaaaay! But also sadge... hopefully the cross progression features comes through soon 😶

I know I'm fuming I had to pay for Pig again even though I would have gotten her back in a few months just so I can get her upcoming anniversary outfit. She's always worth it though!!!
1 -
Skill issue.

In other news, as if I didn't need more reasons to love Pig, had this heart stopping moment today...
I haven't been this stressed at DBD for months... there are not many killers that can create such a nail biting moment xD
The last beep xD

What a satisfying video to watch until the end. Pig is poggers😍🤤

WHOA that's like… the timing of that is just pure insanity… down to less than a second to spare!

She’s a Pig At Work Guys, oml. 😮💨
1 -
It is moments like these why I love our piggy. Sadly I never play against her. Also, I was playing a custom match with two of my friends and they were so confused about Pig as they have never faced her before. I wish I recorded it. Back on topic you are most certainly right the only killers who may be able to pull this off quite as well would be Myers or Ghosty.
2 -
Does anyone else find it funny that the new killer can do all this crap and essentially play with 4 abilities like it's League of Dota 2, but wittle ol' Piggy is on a watchlist because they don't want her overperforming with her little dash and weak RBTs?
I just can't take all this irony. I don't want to hear another word about nerfing Pig when they have no problems releasing killers that are so stacked to the brim with abilities that they make all the 2016-2020 cast look like a joke.
2 -
Chucky mains know where i'm coming from. They gonna release Vecna as is and take Chucky's knee caps out in the same patch…smh
Post edited by Nun_So_Vile on1 -
I don't get why Amanda has to be on a watch list. Maybe it's for the better though and they finally realize that her strength lies in miscoordination on the survivor side.
One can hope.
Chucky truly got the sledge hammer. Why did they remove scamper at windows???
1 -
What is frustrating is they nuked his pallet and window raw scamper... pallets I get, but windows is a bit more of an eye raise... but whatever fine...
However although they gave him a cooldown reduction, they didn't address any of his issues while scampering during slice and dice. Scampering is his unique trait, but scampering during S&D is useless cause it yanks your camera behind you as you do it... it totally screws with your S&D aim so you almost always miss.
He's a third person killer, why is his camera being dragged behind him? He's like the one killer that shouldn't happen on.
2 -
Hopefully, they will come to their senses and see what people love about these killers that defines them are their unique abilities. I myself don't want the licensed characters I play to get these things taken away and they become fairly 1-dimensional.
2 -
That's why i fought for Sadako and we all for Piggies traps.
Chucky seems to just be the "charges at you every 18 seconds" - killer.
That's not very original.
1 -
BHVR please…🥺🐷
2 -
Oh my god I fought so hard for Sadoko and look where she is now. At least we saved Pig and her traps. I truely would have been lost if they gave her the original changes.
