How many of you play both sides?

I started playing in August 2020. I tried survivor but didn't like it. I don't like jump scares. So I played killer only for a while. I tried Elodie because I liked her Christmas sweater lol after that I realized that its good to play both. As playing killer for a long time, I realized how I could be a good survivor as to what strategies work. I also learned good killer etiquette. Getting face camped and tunneled is no fun. So then I went back to killer with better survivor tactics and strategies.

I played killer for awhile and found myself enjoying the game more, even when 0 kills. I enjoy seeing good plays more. I give hatch out more often, usually avoid tunneling and camping and find myself having fun and punishing survivors less.

My overall game time of 3k hours would have about 70/30 ratio of kiler/survivor gameplay but that's mainly due to me playing only killer for like first 800h when DBD was relatively new and I was having such a blast that I rarely played survivor.

But last two years I'm playing far more equally as survivor is just so much more chill even if I enjoy it a bit less. I consider myself 50/50 player even if my gameplay doesn't fully match it.

I play both sides

I have friends that play survivor and I play survivor with them. if I play by myself I usually play killer because solo survivor isn't as fun, and if i should need to get up and go AFK suddenly it doesn't matter if I do that as Killer, but if I did that as survivor I'd just be a liability to my team.

I play a good mix of both however probably more Killer than Survivor just purely because at the time of the day that I'm playing, it takes approx. 10 seconds to get into a game as Killer whereas survivor typically takes anywhere between 2-8mins to find a game.

I got the game in 2017 (I believe don't quote me) and when I first got it, I lovedddddddddddddddd the aesthetic of Nurse. I wanted to be a Killer main and realized I sucked really bad lol. So ever since like mid 2017-2019 I was exclusively a Survivor main playing Killer every once in a blue.

Now I love playing both, mostly Killer because I love Hag and Huntress but I don't really play Killer as much as I want because of all the baggage that comes with it.

I probably have around 45-55% on both sides (fluctuates depending on queues) but I do acknowledge I resonate more with the Survivor plight because I play only Solo and it can be HELL sometimes so I come to the forums, read some things from mains and have to shake my head (and I also tend to have 3k on average as Killer so I dont get a lot of the complains).

I still think the most visually impressive killer in the game is Spirit. Her disconnected limbs, the shards of glass embedded in her skin, her weird floating hair, and the way she summons that slick glass katana impressed me so much that I mained her for a year or so before all the negativity against her started dragging me down. Still love her aesthetic though.

I would've probably quit ages ago if I didn't, killer and survivor are different experiences and I'm someone that kinda needs variety to avoid getting burnt out. Not even switching between different killers quite does the trick.

But I do it in a weird way. I might play 90% killer for 3 weeks, then nothing but survivor for 2 weeks, then about 50/50 for 3 weeks and so on. But it works for me so no complaints here.

I do!

I play a split 50/50.

Sometimes it’s funny because I will be playing solo Q, and we all do well. I switch to killer and get them again, only this time playing against them. 😂

I play both. Depends on the mood I am at, but I usually like killer more.

I'd say I'm about 70/30 survivor and killer.

I'm not the best killer out there only rank 17. but yeah I try not to play like a jerk but sometimes I have too based on how people play. Killer can be very stressful. I have to keep an eye on gens and 4 people. sometimes the audio mix is so bad that I can't hear gens being worked on or survivors when they're hurt. When I do hear a gen it can be tough for me to figure out it's direction too. there are some balance issues I find between killer and survivor but I think it's intentional in some cases. the one thing I don't like is that survivors can save another from any side of the hook to fight face camping but killers can only hook from the front which can be body blocked and there's no issue with that?

the one thing that bugs me is that sometimes I hear the sound of a gen being worked on and there's no one there and I don't see anyone running away. I'm playing on PS5 too. so who knows how many differences their are.

as survivor I have some pretty good games. I'm at rank 10 right now. sometimes you get killers that stomp you and sometimes you get lucky. it's all about teamwork for me. if I were playing solo I'd hate it. though I don't taunt killers or try to piss them off. the people I play with are much higher ranks so I get put up against red rank killers quite a lot so even if I die and can get a good game out of it it's a good challenge.

This is just an opinion from experience not an argument or a complaint.

I play killer and surv 50/50 but in first 1.5k hrs I was a survivor main who won’t even try killer. I was pretty bad at the game I guess, but now I found both sides fun and enjoyable, even with a lot of unbalanced stuff. I would say game is 100% survivor sided. When I was a typical boosted killer/surv I used to run meta perks like unbre/ds/dh/bt and corrupt/pop on powerful killers and still play like a #########(tunneling and gen rushing). But one day I started to play really good as survivor and I put off the meta perks (excluding dh)and the ######### playstyle and I really felt like I deserve to escape and bloodpoints always came first, not escaping. Then I started playing killer as I said,like a boosted, and I got good pretty quickly, but survivors started to complain almost every game about my killer and perks and calling me a camper if I chade someone around the hook or stuff like that and even -rep me. I saw a video from an youtuber where he talked about meta killers and perks and he said that he don’t like to play like this cuz is not funny anymore. Since then I listened to him and I rarely play good killers or meta perks. Now I try to use my skill instead of boosting myself with some perks and good killers or addons/items. I am really proud of me and the game would be nice if everyone would think like that. But I have to say I still go mad for dead hard as killer or when my random mates won’t do something productive and just kill the game(btw I am a solo player).

I do play both sides, but it's likely the split is 2/3rds killer, or even as high as 3/4ths killer.

I'd play survivor more, but I really hate dealing with random teammates. I'd SWF, but I'm picky about who I SWF with - I can't stand people who constantly whine about the game balance or what the killer is doing when we're playing.

I used to play 80%killer and 20% survivor, now it's the other way around

I play survivor and Nurse equally. I find looping as a regular killer extremely boring.

i play both sides, i do take long brakes from one side from time to time, when the DC penalty was removed i would not play survivor and when aura's where bugged i would not play killer, right now im taking a break from the game as whole because im burnout from the rift and the game itself.

I got the game in 2018, and since then I play both sides, but not equally. I am more inclined towards killer because I find it to be a much more fun and rewarding experience, especially when you defeat that one SWF Team that was trying to make fun of you.

I started playing killer mostly to get at playing survivor , but now I play killer alot more than I used to (twins mostly sometimes clown or plague)

I play both pretty equally, though I lean more towards survivor! Recently, though, I've been playing killer to destress and warmup before moving to survivor when I want to try and improve.
