Dear developers.Tired of constant winning(4 kills) as a killer. Rank 1.
Comments

The real stat to see...how many matches do all 5 gens get completed? The devs won't say because it's probably 90% or higher. SWF is the best at getting all gens done and then dying trying to save their one friend because they feel invincible.

Ah yes the "killers are overpowered because they can kill people" type complaint

Wait for MMR system that will be introduced in the future. Just be patient and do not spam low quality baits on this forum.

Can you show me those statistics? I would like to see the 75% red rank kill rate of clown, legion, trapper and hag plz.

Ok, @Reborn2020 I will take the post at face value. Whether it's a bait or not, I will take it as you say it on here.
I'll put a TLDR incase, but dont complain if you didnt read my ideas
I would like to disagree that this game is killer sided. In my opinion, if both the killer and the survivors are the best of the best in a match, survivors will always win, because, as the devs say, they balance their game around solo-survivor gameplay. And even then, before this new patch, the survivors had a LOT of map things working for them.
In most maps, before the 3.7 update, there are areas that are HUGE. And in these huge maps are tons of safe pallet and windows. Hell, some of these maps had god windows. Im not saying that survivors shouldn't have safe loops, but the amount of then is just absurd, and you shouldn't have to "just bring bamboozle" to block on 1 specific loop. With the new 3.7 ptb/update, I feel it is getting more balanced to either side.
If it was so killer sided, then why is it that survivors can legitimately bully a killer in the game? Yeah, you can still 4k from it, but does it feel earned, or did the team usually let you have it because of their alturistic behaviors (literally throwing themselves at the killer to try and save someone when they could wait 10 seconds and probably get them for free then).
Let's compare to everyone's favorite "DBD killer" Resident Evil: Resistance. In that game, as the killer of the game, you can lose a game, but you can't be bullied. They just played better. They do not tbag, or purposefully wait at the exit to taunt you.
In DBD you have survivors that go out of their way to bully killers, and then claim victim when they go on hook because they did something dumb. I am not saying that killers cant be toxic, but there are a LOT more survivors that play topically than killers.
I admit, I am not the best killer. I'm not a 3000+ hour god at the game. But I've gotten to experience the "deathsquad" 4 man swf that relentlessly bully you in and out of the game.
I will try to use numbers to back up my point here too. Let's say that both killer and survivors are being super optimal. Since each gen takes 80 seconds and you have to get 5 done, 4 survivors have to do, at least, 400 seconds of gens. If you divide that by 4, then each survivor needs to be on a gen for 100 seconds (1 minute, 40 seconds) . For 3 survivors, that time is now 133 seconds each with a remainder of 1 second. If a killer wants to keep up with this, and let's say that keeping up means getting all 12 hooks for all 4 survivors, has to down and hook a survivor for every 33 seconds a single survivor is on a gen. If you have 3 survivors working at the same time, you have to down someone every 11 seconds to keep up with the work that survivors are putting in. Is this balanced?
Tldr: this map is balanced for solo-survivor play, and kyf makes the game unbalanced as hell.

Are people really stooping this low..?
1 -
This guy probably brings mori every game
3 -
Hag is actually one of the best killers.
😂
Someone here literally posted more than 100 games(rank1) with 3-4kills every game as addonless plague which already proves my point.
You can all scream "bait" all you want . You only showing that you clearly have a lot to learn when playing killer and that your logic is one sided.
The fact that you mentioned low tier killers proves that you post before read .
1 -
I dont but i could. Killers refusing to use their best offerings proves my point furthermore.

I just need one sec to disprove that.

Just for the record, it was not 3-4 Kills every game, all games were 4K. That was the point of the 4K streak :P

This thread is like a "who's who" of users to ignore :)

You know how forum threads work, right?

We did it guys. We found the one who was hogging all the bad survivors and left the rank 10 killers with rank 1 survivors. Matchmaking solved, we can all go home now.
2 -
How about going for potential 12 hooks instead of slugging for the 4k?
I mean, i get it... a black pip doesn't make a differnce at R1 anyway.
0 -
Are you serious right now? The video isn't even a montage. I knew it was just a clickbait title the moment I realized that, but just to make absolutely sure, I went and looked at the guy's channel. He doesn't have any other game in this "streak" posted. He was just exaggerating how well he does with Plague and used a clickbait title. And even if he was actually trying to be serious about this, this wouldn't be anything close to valid proof of over 100 games in a row with 4Ks.
By the way, for all the ignorant people in this thread calling the OP bait, this video's title is what bait actually is. I'm amazed at how many people have no clue what bait actually means and just throw the phrase around whenever they don't like a post as if they're actually making a point instead of making themselves seem ignorant.

Hey Devs, balance the game around only my personal experiences, please and thank you....
1 -
Are you complaining about winning?
1 -
So do i really need to record 100 games with constant winning for you to get my point?
0 -
Why should i handicap myself?
0 -
Yes pls. And not just a video of one game and claiming you did 100. All 4k.
0 -
The game also shouldn't be balanced based on rank 1 killers lol. Nor rank 20 survivors who couldn't hit old ruin skill checks. But alas.
0 -
why do a video when you can live stream it so nothing gets "removed for purposes". I'd totally be down to watch a live stream till a 2k or less happens. no sleep till 2k!!!
0 -
Here in my garage....3-4 kills every game....drive a lambo, 100 games in a row, very successful.
But you know whats better than that?
KNOWLEDGE!!!
0 -
You would also need to somehow prove they were being recorded in a row. Anybody can just mash 100 4Ks together. How did you not get that from your own original post? Did you honestly think anybody would accept you coming back in a few days and just saying "Hey everybody, I just got 89 4Ks and 11 3Ks in my last 100 killer games. Point proven."?

Not a good mentality to have unless it was lag brother.

I'd like to take a moment to remind everyone that comments should be on topic and constructive to a discussion. This includes calling a post "bait" or insulting other users.
If you believe a post breaks forum rules, use the report function rather than commenting. Thanks.

Start playing more fairly instead of hook camping/returning and you wont 3/4K all the time.
Start playing without add ons and start bringing more meh perks if you desire a bit more challenge.
You can make this game as ez as you want for yourself, bring an Ebony Mori and certain add ons every game and yeah, you skew the game entirely in your favor, that is your choice though, if you enjoy taking candy from a baby....well seek help but you do you I guess.
0 -
The fact that you can decide to simply destroy the other side by bringing mori is not good for the health of the game.
1 -
I have been saying this for a LONG time, I totally agree, I dont mind it IF an "ultra rare" was actually freaking ultra rare, but people have hundreds of the damn things....
Both sides have these sort of ... tools.
Add ons are a fundamental problem in how a lot of them work, make X go faster or last longer.
It just means that EITHER the devs made a killer, adjusted the killer till they thought it was balanced and then made add ons that make the killer better in certain areas aka skewing the balance up, skewing the balance in the killers favor.
OR the devs made a killer, adjusted the killer till they thought it was balanced, then NERFED the killer so they are actually too weak which then can be fixed by equiping (mandatory) add ons to compensate for that nerf so we can have some balanced matches.
Making add ons just needless busy work to spend bloodpoints on...
Imo add ons should do nothing else but CHANGE the way powers work, a bit of give and a bit of take, there are some add ons like that in the game like Scratched Mirror for example.
Ultimately this comes down to the devs not wanting to commit to a ermm designation for this game, is it Casual or is it Competative?
If it is competative, then why these options that fundamentally ruin any sense of balance?
If its casual, then why cant we for example have a 21:9 aspect ratio resolution of those that have monitors like that.....I mean even freaking CSGO has that which is about as competative as a game can get but in DBD it would give you an unfair advantage?

This game is not killer sided at all pls explain how it is killer sided
1 -
Right what killer is he playing? Freddy everygame or is he a god tier nurse?
0 -
Hillbily

You probably dont even play killer and just try to bait devs to nerf killers after being salty the game wont be survivor sided anymore after the new update.I swear some survivors will go beyond anything to keep their unfair advantages.If not I think you should try survivor if you actually complaing for doing what a killer should do.
1 -
That's the most balanced killer. Next.
0 -
Addons are not that strong (Expect pinks or certain purple) that gives you free 4ks. Also plague is a Killer that has a very well balanced base power, addons are not needed on her, same goes to many other new Killer such as Ghostface, oni, demo, doc, freddy or deathslinger.
0 -
Hooks camping and returning is not unfair, same goes to genrush or swf, these are just normal strategys.
0 -
never claimed it was unfair, I said it was MORE fair not to do it, dont be so butthurt jeez.
0 -
@Reborn2020 ok I’ll bite. Open challenge at rank 1 ( I believe you are a good killer why would you lie?) clown purple or less addons no Moris 100 games 4K only. I’m sure you can handle this challenge right?
2 -
I guess someone had a rough day, dont need to unleash your bad mood on others dude^^

No he isn't. If you watch FunGooses' streams that's where you'll find him making his streaks. He isn't lying about what he does and it's entirely there for you to watch if you'd like.

Winning a lot doesn’t mean this game is killer sided.
1 Survivor’s objective takes less time than killers
2 Survivors have plenty of chase perks, pallets, and windows to hold up a chase
3 Survivors get better perks more often. Do you think most killers are gonna swap Spirit Fury, Enduring, Pop Goes The Weasel, NOED, or any of the older meta perks for Dead Man’s Switch, Furtive Chase, or Mindbreaker?
0 -
So no pictures. Got it.
1 -
Out of curiosity, were you expecting me to just blindly take your word for it after I already mentioned that I went and looked through his youtube channel to see if there was a number of videos indicating a plague 4k win streak? Sorry to disappoint you, but I checked out his twitch videos and SURPRISE, pretty much identical to his youtube channel. I'm pretty sure you just don't understack clickbait. I highly doubt he was ever honestly claiming he had 116 4Ks with Plague in a row; he was just drawing attention to his video.
2 -
His Plague games were somewhat far back, but I definitely disagree that was clickbait. The man is dedicated to getting 4ks with any killer he plays. Awhile back, I watched him very frequently and he's had streaks of upwards of 5 months without letting anyone escape via exit gate. 116 is realistic for someone like him who is so insanely dedicated to getting 4ks.

I've been ghosting this forum for quite a long time, and I'm still confused about people complaining about how the Killers are much stronger. I mean from a lore stand point that's the point, no? How does it compare to the gameplay? I mean yeah, it's obviously a game that people can complain about and voice their opinions, but that just isn't how it would work if this was real life (Take this with a grain of salt people), can you try to explain it please?

Why? I dont need to prove something to you here and im not wasting my time for this biased community . And i wasnt talking to you .

That s it cause i dont have time to play much. I only play on weekends. A bit more these days.

Solo is extremely weak. I win constantly in red ranks since i started to play for kills even against swf. I was winning a bit less when i was playing for points .
Conclusion: solo is not balanced at all. Devs need to implement swf queues based on ranks or whatever as well. And people need to stop treating swf as unbalanced .
