Kill Switch update: We have temporarily Kill Switched the Forgotten Ruins Map due to an issue that causes players to become stuck in place. The Map will remain out of rotation until this is resolved.

Depip remove may actually do more positives than we think.

We are all happy both survivor and killer about the best part of the coming update for both sides. Could be am over thinking but I feel now that we finally got this grand wish of depip gone I was thinking of a few positives of this and once more THANKS BVHR for this long awaited dream.

A= Both killer and survivor maybe nicer to each other now because even if your tunnel out, your not losing a pip it still encourages you to just play the game until you find a fair match and not feel like you want to dc, quit or play another game, same if the killer is having a rough game of competent survivors and feels to dc, quit or play something.

B= Killers themselves(maybe) will not even tunnel as hard no more, I know this sounds bias but I feel killers are more sweaty than survivors when it comes to ranking and ranking to iri 1 as killer is far easier and faster than survivor to iri rank 1, I have a friend who mains killer 80% of time and he confesses that to me.

C =People may not wanna just now always want to swf and even enjoy solo que abit more knowing that even if they lose or did not have a good set of solo que team mates, they still are willing to play because they are not depipping so this let people more willing to play with new players which is very healthy for the game to promote player base growth.

D=Both sides may not use too much meta stuff anymore, perk variety may change up(maybe).

I feel the reason why dbd was mostly having dc/quits/toxicity and what not , aside from perks/killer/survivor qols/buffs/nerfs to both sides the main culprit in truth of what cause dbd to the state it has been in for a long long time is=depip.

I know how frustrating it is as a survivor/killer you are say one pip away to reach the next rank and you get a sound big round of none stop bad games whether its tunnel out as a survivor or stomp or bullied by competent survivors, it ofc then builds this resentment and stirring of frustrations on both side to say ok now its time to bring in the sweat mode .

So THANK you again bvhr for this I see this being the best you ever did with nothing but positives. Uh still hope though we =hide prestige though cause that too will be an other healthy thing to do to avoid lobby shopping.😁

    I don't think it will affect a lot, but I'm sure it will help some players cool their jets a little, mine included. I never liked being on that last pip of a rank and feeling myself enter Sweat Mode because I was afraid if I didn't tryhard in my next match, I would lose a pip.
