I would be interested to see whats ppl most annoying or frustrating thing in the game. My moment is when you miss a hit as Legion in FF because of hitboxes or dedicated servers and lose your entire power because of that. That just gives me the feeling to just dc and stop playing for a while. I mean why do I get punished for something that is not my fault?

Anyway what are your most frustrating things? I guess many ppl will say getting hit my noed xD

    lately it's the 10+ mins to wait for a game as surv and then game itself lasting just a bunch of minutes due to how easy the game became.

    When people argue that new Ruin is better than old one and to demonstrate, use very high mobility killers (like Hillbilly), what in reality proves NOTHING as these high mobility killers didn't need Ruin to begin with.

    It's the low-mobility / low-tier killers that relied on old Ruin, because the new one does not do anything if you don't have the map pressure to begin with... This just grinds my gears!

    It's been listening to the devs recently justify their decisions based on NEW survivor frustration or even veteran survivor rustration while announcing intents to nerf killer perks and their synergies.

    Often I see my corrupt purg hit survivors but still nothing happens when playing Plague. Or when I come up agains SWF who's tbagging and clicking and in the end you just want that one kill at least, but sometimes they still get to make a four person tbagging at exit gate and it is very frustrating.

    Or as the solo survivor I am to get that team with 1-2 guys who is either very poor or is simply not doing gens.

    Yeah another thing this last days it's happen twice that another survivor sneaks up when I search a chest and simply steals my item. What the.. 👿

    It's being tunneled off the hook and straight out of the game if they get a chance.

    Or bad teammates that don't touch gennys. At least if I'm tunneled I feel better if you all do gens and get out.

    Anytime matchmaking and ranking doesn’t work. I’m getting tired of being a rank 15/16 killer being put against rank 6-8 survivors. Same with when I play survivor. It just makes the game more stressful. I don’t play video games to be stressed. If this continues I’d rather go play some Mario.

    Probably moments like this.

    I was so mad during/after this match even though i won thanks to spirit/luck.

    Losing 2 gens in 50 seconds when one of them is a gen i'm walking straight to just after spawning in is so frustrating to me.

    As a killer. Anytime when I am facing swf with at least 2 decent survivor that aiming for bully. ( Just accept the fate that you probably have 0k or 1 k if luck.


    As a survivor. Before ruin nerf, If killer have ruin + PGTW or more gen slowing perk as I had to hold m1 like million year.

    After ruin nerf. Nothing frustating. Most game was ez and relax.

    There's so many. As killer I guess surprise 2-3 man key escape, as survivor cleansing 3-4 totems and getting hit with noed.

    Hatch spawning or gates are being powered, while there are still gens to be completed

    Getting sent back to 10+ minute lobby queue after a -2 minute game because one of the other 4 Ppl I'm matched with didn't get their way.

    Also, watching 3 full health survivors point at me being camped by a m1 killer during the egc.

    Unhooking a survivor, healing them and as soon as I get back on a gen another teammate goes down so I have to either work on my 50% progressed gen or go and unhook him only for another one to go down in the process

  • BenZ0
    BenZ0 Member Posts: 4,125

    @Aneurysm

    Yeah that sucks really having this 1 totem up and then noed xD

  • ClickyClicky

    It used to be old DS. Any situation involving it.

    As for now...

    Had one game where one survivor on hook, one slugged in front of them, one trying to unhook but it was The Game so i couldnt quite see him and it was hard to hear where exactly he was with the sound being bugged. Anyway he realized he couldnt unhook so ran to finish a gen that was 95% as I was looking for him as thats where I found him.

    I see him on it and he finishes it in front of me. Adrenaline pops and he gets healed and zooms off, guy on the floor gets up with adrenaline and then unhooks the other guy who was at full health thanks to adrenaline.

    But yeah apparently Adrenaline isn’t comparable to NOED....

    Likewise seeing garbage killers camp a hook or tunnel one person then they get rewarded with a few extra kills at the end of the game thanks to NOED after doing nothing to earn them. Meanwhile you see better players not use NOED and get less kills for it.

    I hate the endgame crutches. Neither should exist.

    -When I miss a hit because of a lag.

    -Running to often into the same perks by survs, but at least for this I have a solution ->playing less dbd.

    -And 1 time a ingame situation where a Jeff had outplay me. He was at full health in egc near a gate and we have stay on a large loop spot.

    I have know that it wouldn't help me to hit him with m1, because then he would be just injured and running to the gate... And well frenzy is there also no help.

    Usually it is not that dramatic if you getting outplayed, but that one... Wish I had be there hillbilly or some other killer.

    u forgot about the teammates that throw all the pallets down during one chase

  • I made a post saying I find survivors can be the most toxic people in post game chat....and they started tearing into me with insults and the lot for saying that, and then when I was like "Okay I'm out" they started stalking me on all my accounts/social media and sending me death threats.

    That is the level of toxic this game has come to, so for me that is the most frustrating part.

    My most frustrating moments always have to do with teammates. I am not a God-tier survivor, I can run decently, and sometimes I can't run at all if I'm caught out of position. My peeve above all peeves are teammates that won't do gens. I had a game yesterday against a Legion. Three gens got done the entire match, all by me, ALONE. Now mind you I was chased and hooked too. Every time I looked at my teammates they were running around healing or doing a quarter of a gen only to run off if someone else got hooked. I ended up dying and a higher-ranked Yui hid behind some tires to get the hatch. She had about 400hrs more than me in the game, so there is no excuse she didn't know how to play. All her points came from farming off hook and that escape through hatch.

    Killer was using ruin btw so anytime they ran off their gen went back to zero until they found the totem.

    Second scenario that tilts me really bad is if there is one gen left, two people alive including myself, and I run the killer, and instead of doing the last gen the teammate is looking for hatch or switching lockers. When I say it takes everything in me not to message this person with a rant...ugh.

    Double blinking as Nurse right behind a survivor with their head and back taking up 3/4 of my screen and the attack still whiffing while they just run forward.

    Solo Queue Survivor looping a killer for 1+ minutes while the 3 low ranks I’m grouped up with urban evade and don’t work on gens.

    And as a bonus, this was more sad/hilarious, seeing a low rank survivor “gen tapping” the new ruin last night in a match XD

    Grabs not working. Since dedicated servers went live, grabs have been a real gamble. I'll go to grab a survivor making a hook save, and I'll just get stuck in the animation while the survivor finishes making the save and then runs off unscathed. Or I'll try to grab someone breaking a hook, and it'll get stuck while they finish breaking the hook and run off unscathed. Those are "I really wanna quit this game" moments.

    Playing against swf who hold M1 on gens, because that is literally all that is required to beat any and all killers as proven by "depip squad"


    Playing as survivor and nobody does gens, the simplest thing you can do in this game and it guarantees a win.

    Dedicated servers ######### me over.

    Dull and Skeleton Keys being able to open the Hatch.

    Consoles not being optimized.

    Survivors running straight for the god loops or infinites on maps (yes, I do mean infinites because by the time you vault the window or get around whatever structure you're at, you've lost chase, meaning that you can't use Bloodlust or the Entity blocker). This is the one I probably hate the most. I actually had two Survivors do this to me last night and think that they're gods and that it's my fault for letting them get there. You're really going to say that it's my fault when you make a mad dash for those loops when I get within 100 kilometers of you?

    @ClickyClicky

    Agree there are some ppl who say adrenaline is not as powerfull as noed or is even fine and that is complete bullshit for my opinion. I had waaay to many crutch escapes thanks to adrenaline, same goes to noed.

  • BenZ0
    BenZ0 Member Posts: 4,125

    @Talmeer

    Yeah that happens sometimes to see aswell. A survivor is near a exit gate that is open while the timer runs and he is full health.. well you cant do anything against that, you are just ######### there.

  • BenZ0
    BenZ0 Member Posts: 4,125

    @Echorion

    Yea agree. I guess one reason for that is that many "new" gamers start with Dbd. I met alot of ppl that ONLY play Dbd and because of that they are not long in the internet "gaming" life. And because of that they think they can treat everyone as much as they want. I met sadly alot of these ppls and even worse and I agree that Dbd has the worst community out of all games.

    However I love the game too much to not play it, I am in a devil circle xD

    when the devs are more worried about adding new content, and not focusing on older content that needs revising and reworking.

  • BenZ0
    BenZ0 Member Posts: 4,125

    @feechima

    Yea I see alot of potato survivors that are scared from gens. I had once a match that lasted for 24 min as huntress. I am a good Killer so as I saw 1 survivor he would just run me for a few sec. But they were immersing like crazy. The second they heared my lulliby they were hiding. And they weren't doing any gens. after 20min they finished 1 gen... that was a fun game.

  • Exxodus21

    Anytime I run in a straight line toward the furthest gen and it pops before I get there. It happens far mor often than it should.

  • BenZ0
    BenZ0 Member Posts: 4,125

    @TragicSolitude

    Agree grabs are totally broken and never work. But for some reason when other Killers try to grab they manage that... how many times have I been grabbed at a 99% unhook... but when I try that, I never can do that. Thats why I never try to grab, never ever.

    @TheLegendDyl4n1

    Agree. I wish the devs would do a "project health" for Dbd. Means no new content for a few months but they full focus on qulity of life for the entire game. We have enough Killers and survivors so that wouldn't be that much of a problem honestly if we skip 2 or more chapters.

  • BenZ0
    BenZ0 Member Posts: 4,125

    @Exxodus21

    Yeah especially without Ruin anymore it happens way more often.

    When people don't boop the snoot.

    But no really, I really hate it when survivors bully killers into sweating. Like it's supposed to be a casual game, and you're already playing the role that isn't stressful.

    Also the entitled survivors that take any win, and bm you for it. Like I see so many survivors go "Killer's are just as bad as survivors", but I never been treated as poorly by a killer as i've seen so many Survivors treat each other, and killers. The entitled mentality is so strong among the survivors just because they have such an easy time at the game. I find myself often defending Killers just to do my part in combating the toxicity.

    i experience almost 10-20 bugs each day, whether its a game error, or an in-game bug it happens and is very annoying, in a game like overwatch you see that bugs are isolated and fixed within a week, here it takes a little under a month. i just want the game to be healthy, its kind of like the game has no mither equipped and refuses to take it off.

    Yeah but blizzard is well known for keeping the game healthy and stable. But they ######### up with new content or balances ... even more than Dbd. I mean... look at world of warcraft xD

  • ReapersWrath85

    Having survivors clearly in comms and failing skillchecks constantly on most all gens just to have me lose focus and unsure of where to head towards.Plus with slamming pallets,opening and closing lockers.I want to have fun with killers I like, they cant keep pressure on them. The occasional survivor who stalks you trying to waste time.I chase but with God loops it's not worth the time.Did get revenge last time, little punk hung around in and out the exit after the rest were sacrificed and he slipped up..mori his taunting ass

  • TheLegendDyl4n1
    TheLegendDyl4n1 Member Posts: 1,493

    i would rather have the new content and balances wonky then the games health, at least then i could play the game for more than 20 minutes without having to restart it, this is on xbox mind you.

    When you fully wind up a hachet and it goes straight through a survivor.

    But then you can lob one at them and hit their shadow. It just doesn't make sense.

  • BenZ0
    BenZ0 Member Posts: 4,125

    @Rasinbran

    Or if you want to throw a hatch through a window and you someone how the window itself even if you aimed ALOT highter xD

    Killer: Whiffing a hit because for some reason the game thinks I would like to smash my head face first into a tree instead of downing the Meg thats been lapping me the past 3 minutes.

    Survivor: watching my teammate walk over, bust a gen, run, hide in a locker, get caught by a killer, and DC in under 15 seconds.
