Killer is not fun.
The last 5 games, i get constant swf who teabag, genrush and spam click their flashlights at me. I just want to do my ######### tome challenges. I'm yellow ranks and constantly getting put against a full red rank team with 4 decisives, dead hard, adrenaline and sabo. I play this game to destress from daily life and this game actually makes it worse.
Every time i start a chase 2 gens get popped. How the ######### am i supposed to win without using noed or pink addons or mori? I regret making that post about noed being bs now, because i completely understand it now.

I'm having fun going against these type of survivors :p I usually play Oni/Billy with devour and i end up mori'ng all of them and their small brains can't process what happened and they just insult me or insta-leaving, but they make sure that every single one of them will "-rep"my steam profile :p

It's not for everyone :/

i don't know what i'm supposed to do. I don't want the game to keep putting me against 4 rank 1s and i'm yellow ranks with 2 perks doing tome challenges. The gens get done in 4 mins. They all teabag and click at the gate.

Just keep trying to improve even though you might not win

Ive been having issues with 4 man adrenaline. Ive been thinking of bringjng NOED just to counteract the entire team healing last second

I think the problem is that you're letting all 4 survivors live until all the generators are completed, even though they only have 3 perks available for use. NOED isn't going to prevent this from happening, you should analyze your gameplay and recognize areas where you can perform better and put more pressure on the survivors.

Tome challenges are simple, but not easy. Survivors aren't your friends. Killer playstyle is literally work compared to the survivors playstyle.
Eventually, you will get your tome challenges. The tomes/rift are an advanced grind, that's how they're completed if you can't whiff through some of them.

MM is kind of brutal right now for new players unfortunately. Not much you can do about it for now except wait it out and try to learn a thing or two from the higher ranked opponents.

The ranking system is screwed right now and we all know that. Even the devs know it. But there is nothing that can be done about it. The best advice I can give you is instead of getting mad, look for areas where you can improve for the next game. Sometimes higher rank survivors will require a different play style to beat.

It feels like you are too commited to this game. I would suggest to uninstall it... wait... make a steam backup first,
and then uninstall, you probably don't want to re-download it. Don't play this game for a day or two.
If you are constantly being matched with toxic red ranks... your rage... your anger, Lord Vader, this is what they want.
With red rank SWF even noed won't help that much... so... while the matchmaking is broken,
just practice playing a killer, like nurse blinks or billy chainsaw sprints.
Try some troll builds:
Bubba with Insidious in the basement
Nurse with Insidious, Noed and Blood Warden (and Agitation), blinked to the other side of the exit gates at the beginning of the match
My favorite is this one on Billy:
I don't worry about de-piping. Ranks don't mean anything now.

In my experience, solo survivor is even less fun.

Sorry you're not having fun, but it's kinda subjective.

"I regret making that post about noed being bs now, because i completely understand it now."
And this is why most posts complaining about balance can be completely ignored. Many people only care about something when it is affecting them currently. Playing survivor? NOED is a trash crutch perk and should be deleted. Playing killer? NOED is a damn necessity to get any kills! Back to survivor? NOED is a ######### joke!

We cant do anything about matchmaking but I can give you some tips that I do :
1)if you see neas fengs or anyone else with shiny cosmetics leave
2)if you see 2 flashlight or more leave
3if you see 2 or 3 same survivors leave
these are the thiks that I do to avoid the toxic players

@brokedownpalace i agree with you. Back in 2018 when i used to play the game every day i was really entitled. I stopped playing so often since then and came back to dbd after a few months and there's still so much wrong with both sides. But if everyone uses noed, it's because gens get done too fast.

You think that's bad? How about the poor Hag who was rank 20 and no perks and this was its very first game. He faced a rank 1, a rank 3, a rank 4 and me a rank 4. Needless to say, the Hag's first game wasn't a pleasant one.

I have no love for killers at all, but even for me that was a little much. First game ever with no perks and you face four people all in the Red Ranks. Uninstall by Daylight?

Lemme mention, i do kill 1-2 usually though i try not to rehook people in a row, if i kust downed whoever id do. Etter

oh but I thought you were having issues with 4 man adrenaline?
1 -
I do, because even if i down and kill someone everyone fully heals, everyone still has it even if im not getting hit by all 4 at once, my bad i made that unclear. Its just annoying to see the same 4-5 perks on 4 people at once, likely how its annoying for certain survivors to always see NOED and whatever else they run into constantly.

My first game as survivor wasn't very pleasant either. It's to be expected when you don't know what you're doing. Lol

If I saw that I was denying survivors of their perks I would be glad. To each their own :/

As long as SWF isn't literally 100% of the games, they'll keep pretending SWF isn't an issue.
The big one for me is SWF who all take DS so that during EGC they can unhook each other unsafely knowing everyone's DS is active and you'll just derank for trying to hook anybody or you have to sit while they crawl to the exit for free.
Literally they could offset this whole issue by just removing killer derank when against SWF. No need to buff us or anything, just remove derank when we're against SWF because it has so much potential to tip the game balance.
The state of DBD has cultivated an environment where playing killer legit is stressful and not fun, so most killers just gave up and play survivor to earn moris for their one-off killer games. If we dare to develop a new good killer meta, devs will nerf it on principle like they always do. Survivors get to keep strong DS meta and abuse anti-tunneling perks but we are forced to keep adapting to less and less options to play.
But ironically 100% of all bad-gameplay deterrence is tied to rank so they won't do something like that, since it would prove all their anti-tunneling and anti-camping mechanics are just reliant on us caring about rank.

Oh i agree. I just havent run NOED in a while cause until this last rank reset i was super low ranks (from not playing a lot) so i would get 4ks at yellow ranks all the time. I moved to green and now im seeing DS, Adrenaline, unbreakable, BT a lot more. So basically exactly what youve said, im gonna be bringing perks to negate survivor perks more

Sounds good. Good luck

Killer is funny. If someone t-bag i ignore him, i smash him with my katana soon or later ... And if someone like to click click, same punishment. Jokes aside if you are playing Killer those are the common distractions in game. They exist because..... Surivors are often SWF. And if they are SWF it means there are very good players and horrible players boosted from great players.... And they want you to chase always the best one when the others (not so great players) are doing gen (basically they hope in every rank you chase forever their best player)......
When you play Killer follow those common rules, you will have more fun than ever:
1#Rule: Focus, Free your mind, Don't be emotional, think of a chess game and what's your next move, think fast.
2#Rule: If someone T-Bag: Ignore Him (or start a chase, and end it immediately if you cannot close the chase very fast)
3#Rule: If someone click click: Ignore Him (or start a chase, and end it immediately if you cannot close the chase very fast)
4#Rule Don't tunnel (it's boring) but try to chase always their friends that sit at gen, here you find people with less experience and hours. High % chance to end the chase fast.
5#Repeat #4
6# They are in 3 now. Things are now hotter than ever. Surv need to split and they need to stop click click ^..^ and to focus on gen. Keep doing #4
-----------------------------
Rule #7, #8, #9 # 10 Use POP, RUIN or Corrupt Intervention . You need to use Perks to slow-down, a bit, the game.
Have fun and GLHF!

The game is more about how well you can loop and not really about whether you can kill everyone.
Having said that the game is still pretty balanced but survivors and killers who use those broken second chance perks skew matches in their favour. When there's 4 survivors there's 4 times the chance that a dirty build filled to the brim with all sorts of unfair stuff.

I think stressful is more the word for it. There are some days I boot up the game wanting to play and then just turn it off again because I remember clicky clicky teabag swf OoO cancer and decide I'm no longer in the mood. Match difficulty is all over the place. Some days you can just hop on bubba and casually farm bp with bbq. Some days you're sweating bullets on your main trying to cinch the quadruple slug you need to win with last minute against a tightly run swf and every single match feels just as stressful 5 matches in. Matchmaking being all over the place is probably a big part of it. Every match could be potatoes, every match could be top tier because every bloody survivor is red rank completely killing any sort of matchmaking as the game can't tell the difference.

They all use crutch perks and then have the audacity to spam you with 'gg ez' or 'noob killer' or 'nice tunnel'

It's a lot more fun than survivor. That's why I stick to killer. Every now and then I can't get rid of survivor dailies, so I solo que and quickly remember why that role sucks pickles! Nope, I'll stick to hacking tea-baggers and throwing em on hooks.
