3 minute gen times

I meant to post about this awhile ago but my controller had died in the lobby for a new match, so I put the battery on the charger and just waited it out because i wasn't using any add ons anyway. They didnt bring any toolboxes or brand new parts or anything like that but it took 3 minutes for 5 gens to pop, and 2 people were running around in front of me when there were like 2 gens left. I know it took 3 minutes because i thought "damn that match went fast" and recorded the last 5 minutes after the match had ended. The clip started in the lobby before the loading had even started.

So if you ever wondered how fast gens really are there you go

    And how long do you think it would take a killer to 4K if all the survivors stood there and did nothing? Lol.

    The survivors need by default 400 seconds to complete them (5x80=400). When the match starts, the Killer loses 4seconds per second if that makes sense. When the first chase starts, this gets reduced to 3seconds per second. Once the first survivor gets hooked, someone moves in to save - now its 2 seconds per second.Then you add the time it takes to move to the next gen, voila, there is dbd at its very foundation.

    The core issue to this day is that there are maybe a handful of available Killers that are equipped to effectively pressure the gens to slow the progression down. Add to that that many tiles and maps are by default stacked against the Killer and it´s easy af to get the gens done against almost any Killer. This issue only arises though if the Survivors aren´t potatoes, which most are.

    This is why no one plays Trapper/Wraith/Ghostface/Clown/Bubba/ Doctor/Pig/Legion/Demo/Slinger/Plague/Oni/Myers in tournaments. If they did they´d get completely shat on. They are all countered the same way : Split up, sit on gens, profit. There is nothing they can do about it.

    Except that every killer is countered by that, Nurse included. The only reason killers ever win those games is with massive perk bans, item bans, map selection, and a good old fashioned intra-team panic moment.

    True, yet the select few, including Nurse, suffer less from that.

    But ye in high level play if Survivors weren't massively restricted they'd pretty much escape 100% of the time.

    Man a lot of people mad at me because I was just sharing some information I found out, that gens with no intervention can go that fast, or as people pointed out even faster. I didn't say nothing about how gens are too fast or anything like that. HOWEVER I think its pretty telling that me saying the number incited defensiveness lol

    But it aint no secret everyone knows gens pop fast, too fast even thats not an amazing revelation we all know this. The only real thing is people don't want to sit on gens longer. And I agree, I could sit there for a little longer but i don't want it to be like 3 minutes. They say do bones but what the ######### the point, yeah its a side objevtive but with really no point except not getting hit with NOED. And even though thats more common than ever its still not common enough to justify ignoring a gen to find a totem
