I just met the nicest 4man SWF

It was my first time playing demmodoggo, and we got the hospital. So, I did my first timer things and just placed portals in large general areas of the map. They rolled, me, but I asked if they had any pointers for me. They actually were very helpful and told me I did a lot of things right as well as pointed out some huge flaws I had.



Thanks for being super chill guys. You know who you are <3

    I love when people give you tips on what you did right and what you did wrong. I mean, you'll learn as you go but it's nice getting some pointers ;)

    And honestly it often depends on your perks build, too. But that's something else entirely ;) (then again the same build on different killers will work differently..)

    And this is exactly why we shouldn't remove SWF or penalise them for playing together.

    Yeah really. And heck, I've had great plays as a solo player as well as a group player.. just because I'm playing by myself doesn't mean I can't pull great plays with other randos if I see what they're up to.

    Meanwhile I just had the most toxic group in a while. Just the usual, 4 flashlights, coldwind offering, object of obsession, and they grouped up to try and rush every gen as fast as possible.

    These groups are the reason why moris exist

    Had a nice group the other night. I was practicing Nurse who I am really no good at and barely got anything accomplished by the time it was down to the final gen. Rather than cranking out the last one... They all ran out into the open and let the game get prolonged abit more. I actually managed to turn things around and got a 3k. Last guy escaped through hatch with a key after I shut it... Endgame chat they were really cool and when I told them I was new to Nurse, they said I wasnt half bad.

    Had a similar experience... was playing Clown (not as good with him as others but...) After the game I was invited to there party (Xbox) and they were saying how good I was and how I scared them... I mentioned that I don't play Clown vary often and (😯) was their reaction so I said that I play the Pig the most... All good fun made a couple friends and a couple of subscribers for my tiny Youtube channel that I'm working on

    It's always nice to get people who aren't jerks. As a side note I've found you can get decent practice with a killer by having a farming game. Once they understand you're wanting to farm they're pretty much always willing. It gives you the chance to play with that killers power in a relaxed manner.

    Oh I love that! I had a similar game when practicing Sally, too! It was obvious I wasn't very good at her and they stopped working on generators and just had me chasing them when there was one generator left. She's so fun and so worth the time to learn her! She's my second favorite, only because I have a soft spot for Amanda ;)

    I gave someone a really good Mikey build the other day. He/She messaged me back with a big thank you cause of a 4K. Not everyones toxic. I like helping newer players and up and comers

    As a hard Wraith main, i appreciate survivors who help me figure out killers I haven't really even seen when I'm floating in like rank 7 ish lmao I always get so rolled.

  • IamB4tm4n88

    I dont believe in Rank in this game. Ive had LvL 1 survivors I thought were 20 and A lvl 20 survivor I thought was 1. Whats your Wraith build?


    My Mikey Build is

    MAA because Tier 1 with LVL 3 MMA is only like 1 or 2 meter Terror radious

    Nurses

    BBQ

    SBFL

    then I run Jewerly and the jewerly box for a super fast stalk movement. Survivors think im not stalking cause I walk up on them so fast LOL

    It's a combination of 4 addons, whichever it lands on that game, and a handful of perks I swap between depending on what I see them take.

    Yellow or Pink clapper, Ghost, move speed. Anything outside of those 4 isn't a normal add-on rollout I use.


    Nurses, BBQ, Overcharged/Ruin/Surge, and Whispers.


    It's pretty much purely for tunnel and generator pressure. ngl. I've learned that if I prioritize hard pressure, survivors over time make it easier to hit them.

  • SonicOffline

    I have a small pool of addons and perks I cycle through, depending. Namely:


    Pink and Yellow Clapper, Move speed, and Ghost. Any combination of the 4, likely not gonna do move speed and ghost tho.


    Nurses, BBQ, Overcharged/Fired Up/Surge/Ruin, and Whispers. Since I'm looking to pressure gens overall more and focus on survivors a little less, I want the raw radar and move speed. Wraith (I think?) is the only killer in the game who can freely just zip zip zip around without relying on a cooldown, so I play hard gen pressure.

    Honestly it saddens me that we cherish the moments of wholesomeness in this community but at the same time, I really do love the wholesome people in this community.

    I'm glad they steered you in the right direction instead of giving you the usual hatred

  • SonicOffline
    SonicOffline Member Posts: 918

    ...Why does it sadden you to cherish kindness? Is there not enough or something? Because that's an entitled way of thinking. "No one's nice enough for ME."

    Funnily enough my group did the same thing recently. You didn’t happen to be streaming did you? Ours was with someone streaming recently. We like to spread good gameplay around with no toxicity and just play casually unless someone is being genuinely toxic (not like if they bring a mori toxic but like actually toxic)

    So... what tips did they give you? I find the Demogorgon's portals to be extremely difficult to use properly.

    That was basically the only thing they told me I was doing correctly lmao


    I was trying way too much to set up traps with the bunny hop and kept giving away my position with the red paint that I keep forgetting about. I run ghost most of the time on Wraith so I forget the paint exists when I play. lol.
