i just wanna say i have near 8 thousand hours in this game ive always been a killer main but i play both sides i play a lot of surv too. i wanna start out that im totally fine with the slugging change i think that is great who wants to be slugged all game right? agree. but my main point is that taking tunneling away with this method is not right and its a stupid change even the strongest killers have a hard time 12 hooking eith all these anti tunnel perks to help like shoulder etc this will only make swfs 1000x stronger youre gonna kill the game with this tunneling change and so many killers will quit i promise you please do not go through with the tunneling change the slugging change is fine but go back to the drawing board and rethink please!

    even the strongest killers have a hard time 12 hooking

    I disagree I think this is absolutely wrong, I think either people are using perks to bloat their MMR up or sweating alot themselves. Both of which will increase your MMR and get you higher MMR survivors.

    If you play in a chill way, your MMR rebalances and you get chill matches. I have absolutely no issue getting 12hooks on trapper.
    Ofc that would require a Killer to maybe lose some matches, which will attack ones ego.

    How is playing for the win bloating MMR? Yeah, if killers 12 hooked every games they'd lose more games. Same for pallet saves, SWF, Syringes, etc... should those be considered MMR bloating too?

    How is playing for the win bloating MMR?

    Because DBD is a game that has randomly generated and also skill components, some of those skill components can be utilized by choice, to do the most optimal with no disregard for how fun the game is for other players.

    Taking that choice to play optimally is going to bloat your MMR, than if you didnt make that choice.
    Yes, using syringes every game would bloat your MMR as well, when you run out of syringes you will take a dip in MMR.

    When killers sweat "EVIL DETROY THEM"

    When survs sweat "I'm just playing the game lol"

    Im all my years of playing pvp games I have never seen people refer to using the optimal strategies as "MMR bloating". Like imagine your playing a shooter and saying "He is using the best gun he is bloating his MMR!" No he just knows what's best.

    Also 12 hooks on trapper you are playing against potatoes.

    Is there like an argument you want to make against my points? Like I dont care if you never been told that using the most optimal perks, strategies and addons will make you win more easily than not using those. Ill gladly be the first to tell you that, but you I think you are just being deceitful and you already realize that.

    But fine, yeah using the most optimal things is gonna bloat your MMR.
    No I dont want to play with PainRes, POP and dead mans switch.

    I like playing inefficient, I play playing with random perks, I want to play with random addons/ offerings even.

    Don't shift the goal post you said using these strats is "MMR bloat" and now you say its "most optimal perks, strategies and addons will make you win more easily than not using those. Ill gladly be the first to tell you that, but you I think you are just being deceitful and you already realize that." MMR bloat is not a thing stop making things up.

    Then lets nurf anything that is optimal, no more gen rushing, no more exhaustion perks, no more second chance perks, no more looping, as that's too optimal so it should be removed👍️.

    Damn I guess all Platinum players in siege just bloat their MMR.

    Cool you like to play like that some like to play to win and taking away playstyles and tactics ruins any sort of competitive experience when BHVR just decide to hold the casuals hand.

    You don't understand high level DBD so why do you seek to ruin it when you yourself said "I like playing inefficient" Imagine if a bronze player was dictating how plat player play just insane.

    Its not goalpost shifting, its what I meant, they are the same.
    So you would not object if I said "best" in stead of optimal? or Most optimal as I did when I responded to VibrantToucan.
    Then so be it. Thats what I mean.
