Console Killers
Where are they seriously? I am facing with them so rare. Most console players are just survivor main or they just disabled cross-platform?

Playing Killer on Console is like playing blind.
You are knowingly handicapping yourself and there's only so much of that one can take

Theres not a ton of us (atleast on Xbox) but we are here every now and then. I'm just waiting for Nemesis to come out though.

Alot turned off crossplay. On ps4 my waits as survivor are pretty quick, at most maybe 2 minutes, because so many killers have turned off crossplay.

Playing killer on console can be quite a miserable experience.
Between the horrid FPS, constant stuttering, and lack of graphic options that make most maps dark as hell, it’s not a very fun experience most of the time.

Is playing survivor has same problems or better experience on console?
0 -
It's slightly better.
The FPS is usually higher, but yes, the same issues still exist
11 -
probably in another server...

I'm still around but playing less and less.
Last few days I'm leveling up my freddy because i want to be a freddy main again (stopped playing him after rework) but I'm less motivated to play this game

Survivor has FPS drops too but they aren't as game changing as killer. As killer you're more likely to lose survivor in chase/miss a hit. As survivor you will miss skill check or when in chase will miss vault/pallet drop or end up running into a tree thanks to the freezes. Survivor with old button mash when on 2nd hook used to have way more deaths because freezes from triggers like gens popping would cause the game to think you stopped hitting the struggle button.

I hope you guys get better experience.
After All Kill chapter i had low fps for month and it was seriously so annoying.

Console here. I have cross-play enabled, but when I play survivor, the huge, huge majority of the killers I go against aren't console (or at least, aren't PS4/PS5 like myself).

Omg! Seriously it is bad like that...
And BHVR still did not fix it huh, seriously wow!

Nope, haven't fixed it. That's why we have that huge post Pulsar started. There are videos posted in the thread from both killers and survivors showing the freezes. It's a pretty long list of triggers that cause the FPS drops - status effects like sloppy or exposed, perk icons popping up like leader or thana, notification bubbles, certain killers powers like Mikey entering tier 3 or Ghostface going stealth, entering Freddy's Dreamworld... I could go on. Bloodlust for console killers hurts more than helps because everytime it activates you get fps drops. The weekend without Bloodlust was so noticeable even as a survivor, killers in my matches were downing survivors much more often when Bloodlust would've normally screwed them over.

I play console around midnight GMT, its an evening game for me. I play Oni too so I'm even more exclusive lol

There are a few of us about. I play 50/50 with survivor, so if you spot a killer with a oddest of perk combinations, that's probably me.

My boyfriend is a console killer, but has cross-play disabled so he only plays against ps4 players (or other console players) since playing against pc survivors is a hell for him with the flashlight aims, the 360's etc. As a controller player you cant do such things that good unless you train for it for long.
I play console killer too but with cross-play enabled and streamed it a couple days ago. It's hard but managable for me. Still not very fun with the random 360's etc but its do-able for me

I have crossplay off and it's staying that way until they improve the horrendous frame rate.
2 -
It's not as bad as survivor but dead hard won't work most of the time.

I find a decent amount of killers on console, I guess it's just one of those things

I play always with crossplay as survivor. But as killer? Im not insane, if i get a survivor who spins i will never hit him. On ps4 i get always fast matchmaking with killer anyway, so there is no reason to enable crossplay.

I play on Switch, but mostly on weekends and nights. Ive been playing survivor more rn, but I'm like 65% killer main
0 -
I play almost every night, and I win 10 and lose 1, I have the Cross play activated
0 -
I have to work to pay for things that keep me subscribed to life. When I have a day off I may get on my PS4 and suffer the unoptimized DBD for console and my cross play is always on.

Sorry I'm late, I'm supposed to be fast but my game froze so I missed the wall.

We need M&K support for consoles so we can play all and any killers without being held back by controller limitations

I bought the game in February, and I disable cross play 90% of the time. It's faster that way. Less waiting in lobby. Especially playing killer.

That is reason i do not like consoles so much. I only buying PS for exc games, i seriously do not know how people playing online games on console. Like Pubg, DbD, CoD etc

Im console and not only do i play a few killer matches a day, I go against other ps4 killers a few times a day.
But i would agree that PC killers are more common.

idk the comments about console being horrible expirence as killer I play both pc and console and can't tell much difference at all, honestly rather play on console when I play dbd more then pc just to lay back, I don't play killer as often unless I feel like trolling, survivor just feels more competitive and difficult to win, majority the time I play killer it feels rare that I'll be up against a team that even go for generators even in high ranks feels like im against a solo que everytime hook 1 by time i get to the first generator I've seen the other 3 all coming for the 1 on the hook feels more of a challenge to play survivor specially now compared to back in the day I just recently came back and with that change to the hatch being it opens for the last alive no matter how many generators are done I catch people all the time now just waiting by the hatch for everyone to die its sad, it sucked for the killer tho if it was one person left with 5 generators and they managed to get the gens and then escape threw the hatch but for the survivor was awesome feeling to be on edge that long an win, now you have to worry if your teammates are going for a easy W

I’m not sure how to turn off crossplay on ps4 but the only advantage pc players survivors get is being able to turn more rigidly. I hate it because it takes me out of the game but also because when I’m in frenzy they’ll just slip past me because of the lagging frame and connections. Outside of using legion spins just get add a second to the chase because they’ll pause for a second before rotating again.

I'm still around but I haven't played the game a whole lot so my rank has plummeted back down to 20. The last three chapters have been a big pass for me. Blight is just too clunky, then there are the twins and trickster who don't suit my playstyle. I will be coming back to try Nemesis.
