Soooo when does survivor get to be fun?

Nah dude, survivor is clearly insanely overpowered and needs to be nerfed hard. If someone gets camped, tunneled, slugged for four minutes, or otherwise disallowed the ability to play the game they've spent money for, it's clearly their own fault for being toxic or egging it on. And before anyone tries to disagree, remember that camping and tunneling are perfectly valid, efficient, and fair strategies to win. Killer mains should always get the benefit of the doubt because they have it oh-so-hard in a world of four versus one.

Don't worry about having bad teammates either. That's not possible when every game has an efficient four-man Survive With Friends (YUCK!) that bullies, gen-rushes, and abuses the poor and undeserving killer mains.

Have fun playing this great game. You'll find that the community is very inclusive, as almost everyone agrees with the preapproved facts and anyone who doesn't is clearly wrong.

I wish you luck making your own fun playing survivor if you choose to continue to do so. Or continue having fun playing killer, if you'd rather. :)

Survivor even with a SWF is a dice roll if you will have fun or not, people hate to admit it but the killer is in charge of the fun. They can camp for an easy kill and ruin the game for everyone or get ambitious and let everyone play but some decide not to. Personally been playing solo survivor recently in red ranks and I haven't had too many bad games, yellow ranks must just be a cesspool of noed and wraith players. Once you make the push to purple ranks gameplay styles start to change, if you can make it through then some fun can be had

RNG is the biggest enemy in this game.

Whether it's the map you get, the type of killer playstyle you are met with, or (if in soloQ) the kind of teammates you encounter.... All of those are RNG dependent.

In order for you to find the "fun" aspects of the game, you have to basically accept that with the good comes the bad, and that while yes in lower ranks killers camp because they are trying to learn the basics of the game, you'll also be preparing yourself for a worse version of that type of face-camping in later ranks. Because you'll have a more experienced player who knows how certain perks will affect camping etc.

For me I have found the fun in SWF, why? Because playing with my friends is like having insurance for DBD. Even without inside communication I have no doubt in my mind that I could trust my friends to do gens, make saves the proper way, take a hit or aggro where I need it. Etc. Mind you... these are things that even in solo Q I still do myself for other people. But again, it is something that you can't expect others to play a certain way for you.

There is nothing worse than the feeling that you are doing everything for "others" who are less deserving to escape or claim a win. Just know that you aren't the first one and certainly won't be the last one. At least know that your efforts are recognized, and in fact many of my friends list peeps I have added due to their selfless acts and the way they truly made the match feel like there was real teamwork.

Survivor is a boring drag that's only worth doing because it's more forgiving on your mistakes. Hold m1 for 80 seconds, run, hold m1 for another 80 seconds

Friday had amazing survivor gameplay and I had hoped initially that it would prompt DBD to make more alternative objectives.

When you get better at it and rank up to green-purple ranks.

Thats usually where survivor starts to be almost always fun and killer almost never fun. At least in my experience it was like that

Or play with friends if you want to have fun and easy mode at the same time

I'm in green ranks on PC as survivor right now and it's still terrible, lol. Even at red ranks it doesn't get better (I always stayed at red ranks on console before I switched). I almost always have to try and carry my team. I wish the devs would take the time to make some decent changes to solo Q.
