Killer role is stressful and Behaviour don´t want to change it.

I think its alright. Yes its often stressful as #########, but its also 1v4 game so its natural the bigger role should be more chill so people will play it more.

It kinda works with the queue times too, except this RE chapter killer times of course

But when they cleanse your totem though, that gen is about to get a boot shoved so far up its... You get the point. I will tunnel that gen with my foot if it comes down to it. Good design or no, the survivor gonna need to gimme a minute every other loop, bruh.

I mean, Surge is the only one I have, and just on Demogorgon. I definitely need to Lui Kang those gens in the interim. I do like running it on Demo though, it is probably my best killer and I wouldn't be surprised if it was just for the double regression.

I wasn't asking for a change, I was just agreeing with that dude that the design is kind of lopsided. It objectively is, in what world can 4 survivors tap a gen and a killer needs to go through an animation to keep the regression?

I am not saying gen tapping is broken or that the animation is too long or something. It is inherently imbalanced, there is literally no room for debate. The game is an assymetrical game, so you know, it doesn't NEED to be balanced. But it 100% isn't and if you think otherwise, that is... Your prerogative, I guess. You would certainly be wrong, however. Lol.

I don't think finding survivors at the start of match is a problem. It may take some experience, but there are enough tools to help out the killer. You've got crows, great perks like Corrupt Intervention or Whispers etc.

Kicking gens is a terrible way to slow down the game. Most killers kick every gen they see without making sure that survivors are unable to get there for a prolonged period of time. Instead, it's much more efficient to apply pressure by getting downs and hooks to keep survivors away from generators. However, this obviously requires the killer to play well.

I don't think being blinded is a huge deal. Flashlights are incredibly easy to counter. When survivors are insta-saving, the killer can abuse that for even more pressure.

The point of Hex perks is them being high risk high reward perks. The reward usually outweighs the risks. There's a reason why Ruin and NOED are the second and third most used perks respectively.

Gen tapping makes no sense. Why does the killer lose 2 seconds of fixed animation while survivors just hit m1 for a split second during a chase without even slowing down.

Killer role is only stressful when you force yourself to play a certain way. Don't get brainwashed by whatever way streamers or survivor main is telling you to play. You are playing for your own enjoyment, not others. Tunneling out the weakest survivor to make it 3 v 1 asap or camping as necessary is fair game. No point handicapping yourself.

Map rng dictates games massively. There are a lot of maps where you will lose unless the survivors royally botches it. Fractured cowshed is a low hanging fruit but its not the only one, rpd, mount ormound, midwich, red forest all are extremely problematic for there size alone. There is also the killer you play. Anyone who generalize all killers as being strong is missing the gap in power levels between the good and bad killers. Good killers like blight, nurse and spirit are powerful and definatly can compete but myers and crapper is gonna have an awful time. Middle of the road killers struggle massively too. I'd advise killer players who struggle to bite the bullet and stop playing low tiers killers if you want consistent excellent games. i have seen many players say there pig,legion,trapper etc mains and express frustration at how unfair dbd is.

If your against good players playing good quality killers with mechanical depth is important. Anyone who still thinks a pig or trapper has a good chance of doing well is deluded. Now this is assuming your playing against good dbd players.

Do basement builds and proxy camp. It can be relaxing especially when you have your favourite drink nearby.

Yes at least allow us 5% regression on kicks so survivors can't instantly tap with no punishments

If you don't enjoy playing killer, don't play it, simple as that

Please, you said in another thread that you have 6k hours in this game. Not everyone has the time to nolife this game to get to your level.

You sound just like sluzzy who also had several thousand hours on killer but couldn't see the problem from a lower standpoint anymore.

And before you tell me that anyone can get as good as you, so can every survivor get better and look for a 4 men to team up to have the coordination. The potential is there on both sides. And also from my experience, swf of any size is already the wider standard, at least in the evenings 80% 2/3 mens plus solo and 15-20% undetermined and 0-5% 4 mens.

Edit: The biggest problem in thsi game is not the balancing first but the matchmaking.

You as a player (i think you even said killer main in the other thread) get matched against the whole potpourri of red rank survivor which if we compare them to league of legends ranks is everything from silver up to master (just to cap it there).

Your 6k hours put you into the master category only topped by the people that would play this game professionally and you still get matched down with silver. Of course the killer side would seem unbelievably easy when in 70-80% of your games you don't get matched with 4 men swf with equal amounts of experience/skill/whatever.

This game can only really be balanced when there are some fixed points to reference anything around.

This would mean all killer would need the same potential/lethality, solo and swf would need to be brought to the same level and matchmaking would need to match people of rather equal skill. Then we could really talk about balancing anything but that is too much work for behaviour and we will probably never see it work.

1k hours is still low. Killer will always be stressful because its 1 vs 4.

the truth is killers stress themselves out. You think you need kills to win. You need to prevent gens getting done. Neither of those should be your priority. You have to just find ways to make the game fun without worrying about things outside of your control.

play killlers your bad at with random perks, or killers you excell at with perks you would never use. Just play for fun

You're kidding right? Killer is WAY more relaxing to me than survivor. As a survivor you have to worry about 3 other people messing up, getting gens done, doing totems, hook rescues, healing people...oh and being chased by a killer who is faster and has special abilities.

Maybe play survivor then if it is such an easy role to play :)

I do think it should be less stressful.

That doesn't mean easier, but Killer is emotionally and mentally more exhausting than Survivor.

See this Reddit post made by a psychologist

Killer is easy mode at the moment and killers win most games. But yes, it is a bit stressful, mostly when you face a 4-man SWF squad, DEVs just have to deal with SWF and it'll be less stressful.
