Remove SWF
Take that option out of competitive games. The rank system doesn't make sense if there is that option. With the custom mode is enough. It is also a tremendous imbalance that favors the survivors, this makes it difficult to play as a killer.

Yeah... no.

yeah imagine having fun with friends lol, too op

LMFAO! Cheating? Sounds like you just need to improve as a killer because damn that’s a lot of exaggerating.

Explain how SWF is cheating? I play with 1 other person and we both run complete different perks that don't really help each other out apart from BT but I run that on every build.
6 -
- False
- It's not cheating unless the devs say it is
- False (maybe stop being a bad killer lol)
- Don't know the stats on that one, but if you could point those stats out then please do.
5 -
Which competitive game are we talking about here? This is the Dead by Daylight forum. DBD isn't competitive. It's basically a party game.
5 -
Really, SWF will never be removed.
Just accept it or dont play the game. There is NO point at all to open Threads like this.

I guess you did not understand this post. I speak from the view of the killer, I think you have never played as a killer
0 -
That was the intent but it was abused.
Do you know how many Survivor perks is made obsolete by Voice chat?
Perks Like Kindred is flat out power crept by VC
0 -
Did you not see the Cross Friend option they are rolling out? They want people to play together it builds the game.
2 -
I guarantee you I've played more killer than you have. The difference between you and I, besides actual experience and skill, is you think DBD is a COMPETITIVE GAME. KEKW

COMMUNICATION is a trap. This destroys the assassin's strategies. It makes me laugh that people don't even understand this.

Back when SWF wasn't a thing yet, people didn't seem to think that custom matches was enough.
People were dodging a lot just to end up with friends.
I'm not sure that that opinion changed over time.

I think you should watch your cholesterol levels. Too much salt.
1 -
Dude it's a game not the plans to dominate the world. Test your ability as killer against SWF. It's very rewarding to get a 3 or 4k against them and laugh at the salty messages. SWF isn't killing the game what so ever. Show me proof don't just spout facts about assassins
1 -
While I don't like SWF, the devs showed a long time ago that 3 and 4 man groups were no where near as common as 2 man groups.
And if you're going to take out the "play with friends" aspect of a game, it may as well be single player.

read my full stats: https://dbd.onteh.net.au/playerstats/76561198246439888/
good one trying to asume my main role for a pfp and an opinion
5 -
how do you get that?
0 -
Then they complain about ranges and this is partly due to SWF being in different classifications.
0 -
It shouldn't be removed, but something needs to be changed in order to balance it versus a full solo team.
0 -
The devs provide channels in the official DBD discord for SWF.
Your entire point is invalid.
3 -
they outplay you? do the same with them, do thngs they woouldn't expect, but yeah, gess it's better to make it easier for the babies to get kills so they can feel proud

this is available just for Steam users, it basically can detect the overprogress of your achievements https://dbd.onteh.net.au/

I'm not quite on the same playing field here. If that was the case it would be 1 v 1.its 4 v 1 so is it classed as cheating if you have 4 man team. I tend to play more serious when I'm playing on my own and just have fun when I'm playing SWF
0 -
Exactly, something like that could be. Finally someone consents
0 -
I would love to hear your defence case for this in a court of law
1 -
Doesn't matter, the devs allow it so it's not cheating.
1 -
99% of SWF are just buds casually playing. Most of them suck.
4 -
I was rank 1 survivor and assassin for a long time and when I play in SWF it is extremely easy.
0 -
In all seriousness they should remove killers. Way too OP and obnoxious. The 5th slot should be a survivor.
2 -
So we should lose out on fun due to some people annoying you? C'mon that's not fun. Try playing against SWF a bit more relaxed. Don't let it get you as stressed. Sure it's rage enducing when your constantly getting pallet stunned or flashed. But it's more fun to camp them on the hook and read the messages of sheer hate
1 -
So, here's the thing. You don't make the rules. The developers do.
Since they say it's not cheating, it's not cheating. No matter what you say, or think, you are incorrect. There is no version of this where you will ever be correct. Just stop.
This "sanctioned cheating" crap is just that, crap. NO developer has ever added a MULTIPLAYER mode in their game and not FULLY intended them to use voice comms.
1 -
I think you mean NERF it would be very stupid of the devs and rude to the player base just to remove swf, that’s a big portion of survivors.
0 -
I think they should just give solo players quick chat options and balance around that.
0 -
SWF are annoying to go up against, yes. BUT, the alternative is solo, which isn't very fun unless you are a survivor god. SWF is an integral part of the game to let friends have fun. I don't like going up against sweaty SWF's, but if you try hard enough, you can beat them and that's one of the most satisfying things to do. And plus, I've gone up against some memeing SWF's, and it's funny as #########. So no matter how much you bicker and whine, SWF's are staying
1 -
Again, the devs (as in the people who created the game and define the rules <----this is where you are invalidated), provide Discord channels for SWF. Therefore, it is not cheating. Not sure what you don't understand, but they make the rules. Not you.

Let me guess, you only play survivor in SWF?
This game wasn't made for SWF, being in a SFW is a massive advantage. Its why so many people never play solo because why would you if you just wanna win?
It's not going anywhere but it is basically cheating with no exaggeration its that much of a benefit
0 -
The definition of cheating is done per game, by the creators of the game. Not by the players.
Your opinion is invalid.
0 -
"Always 3-4 man escapes." Lol? Maybe the uber sweaty SWF, but there's a lot more SWF players to this game than just that, some people just play duo and for fun.
1 -
Cheating has a definition - and the definition for cheating in a game is defined by the developers.
You can't win this.
2 -
They should keep swf but just have them always play against an AI opponent unless a real person opts in to play against swf
0 -
I think swf is fine in a competitive standpoint, I can play with friends in competitive mode in Overwatch, I think it is fine in this game too.
0 -
thhey should just make killer NPC AI because no one going want to play killer anyway soon.
0 -
My thoughts were to implement proximity chat range and for distance communication use of walkie talkies but then again. F13 already does that. Might be looked as copied ideas. But agreed it needs changing.
0 -
I would just prefer more emotes, maybe preset phrases with hotkeys etc. The DBD community is not NEARLY mature enough to handle voice chat.
0 -
You can't tell me this isn't abusing the system. They were SWF. And I see a lot of this.
1 -
Na dude, they are just friends wanting to play together and have "fun".

So - a lot of you salty people are trying your hardest to justify every loss you get because of either matchmaking or SWF.
While SWF has the POTENTIAL to be quite OP and unfair, the amount of tryhard SWF "seal team 6" teams are VERY few and far between. There is a rather large part of this that is just you needing to "git gud" as they say. Even veteran killer mains will tell you this. 99% of SWF's are just people shooting the ######### with their friends.
