DBD is becoming more and more UNFUN to play
Every single game is tunnel camp vs gen rush game.Just that. With ruin w/o undying. The higher is your MMR the more exploited are these techniques. As a survivor, most of the time u are sticked to a gen or looking for hex totems. Sometimes the killer don´t even bother on chase you if u are not wounded or on a deadzone. They are very afraid of the gens popping sound to can afford 1 or 2 long chases. Because if u don´t have a top tier killer that can end up a chase quick, gens fly. But, if survs are playing vs a top tier killer that is tunneling, only chance to "win" is repair. And I pass. Not my intention on winning a game repairing 2 or 3 full gens by myself.
These kind of games are not for me. I don´t play to win but for having fun. Repair generators and search totems can be extremely unfun and boring (special mention to coolwind farm and those maps where totems have perfect camouflage). So I get very tired and many games and eventually just let me die. This thing makes me drop my MMR I guess. So my games are with baby survs or killers many times. And it´s not something I neither enjoy (deaths at first hook, 4 ez scapes, etc...)
I´d like to be able to play with people on my level (I´m not Ayrun, but I can handle a chase, I bodyblock a teamate or trade hooks, etc) and propperly ENJOY the game. With more interaction with killer and teammates, focused on chases, bodyblocks, flashlight saves, etc. And with more sportmanship between survs - killer. I think nowadays both sides are very toxic against each other when it´s a necessary relationship. Survs need killers to play the same as killers need the survivors.
I´ve said it many times. Actual metagame is far to be funny. We need a new game mode more casual, and more focused on interaction between players. Remove the gens if necessary. Add a countdown or a capture the flag mode, whatever. But a new game mode or a casual queue with another rules that prevent this tunnel / gen rush meta.

I like how your definition of interaction is doing slam dunks on a killer who doesn't know what they're doing A.K.A people way below your level.
Smurf.

If that´s all u have understood I think u didn´t understand much, sorry.

I always want to ask people their definition of fun.
Also u come in PvP game and blame the game for being PvP. Dude, u are on 4 man team and u have to play as team, if for some reason they don't do gens, then u do it. There shouldn't be problem about it.
Killer balance is a separate question...
Overall let's just hope devs will gather their data and made some healthy decisions about it. And i rly hope they won't be survivor sided.

Yes, yes. Smurfing in the guise of Sportmanship hear it all the time here.
Could have just removed your rant that made you look silly and left the last paragraph.

Tell me you didn’t read the post without telling me you didn’t read the post.

In my case, as surv, my concept of fun is interaction with killer and teammates, not interaction holding m1 on a generator. I know i can be sticked to a gen and "win", but I find it extremely boring.
I don´t play much killer. But I´m aware that if u are not playing spirit, nurse, blight, in certain way you need to proxytunnel camp if u don´t want gens fly. As u say, there is no balance related to killers.
U mention this is PVP and I don´t see it that much. The way I see it this game is more like surv vs generators and killer vs time. I neither want the game to be survivorsided. I enjoy close games.

U mb don't see it but it actually is. As a reminder:
Survivor goal is to escape by running killer all over and doing gens same time. Here if u don't enjoy doing gens try to find killer and get his attention. Mb u will enjoy running and looping.
Killer goal is to track and catch up survivors before they escape. There's not so much i can suggest u to do as killer. It's up to u how u enjoy catching survivors or mb u prefer to ignore them and walk all over a map while they escape. It's up to u.

How do I downvote a thread?

Pinhead is what they should have apply in the beginning. A power that not op but has build-in slow down. Allow Pinhead to make a long chase without punishing much.
Most killers able to make a fast down, forcing survivors either to rush gen, or there is no chance of any able to escape.

Btw, what do people want to achieve with a casual mode?
Cause one thing i hear people want with that mode is that it'd be without ranking, which sounds insane to me as you'd essentially lump the ultimate sweat with the ultimate newb.

That last sentence sounds already pretty unhealthy to me.
Either you want the devs to look at the data and make decisions based on that (whatever the outcome may be, read: whether you like it or not) or you want changes that favor killers (aka "i rly hope they won't be survivor sided").

I left the game a week ago, there are better games out there

I will explain myself. Dbd is a horror game where survivors should be afraid of killers so killers needs to have some advantages which survivors need to outplay. Currently it feels otherwise. Like playing survivor compared to killer, I'm chilling. Even if he hooks me, it's like i don't care. Gens are still popping and job is done.

Maybe at it´s origin. Nowadays I think nobody feels it like a horror game.
Game design is a race against the clock. Claudette players selfcaring on a corner is what reallisticaly would happen on a real circunstance. But if survs would play like that all of them would die. DBD is more like a real time strategy action game with horror aesthetics.

Absolutely this. What is "casual mode" suppose to be? If you want to play "casual" then play "casual" until your MMR is at a "casual" level. Unless players are just wanting to be put against noobs, which is what it seems like they are wanting. So play against bots. I just don't get it.

Ranked mode would never be played

For double BP I would play the ######### out of it.
Dunno why people think casual mode will be full of tryhards, its almost as if they never played any other game beside dbd or something

Idk why people is so confused with this post. Of course I know how to sit on a gen an click M1 (most efficient survivor action). The point is I am just tired of this meta where most op strats are camp tunnel and gen rush, because IMO is extremely boring to play.
Devs create the meta game when designing the game. And if people play like this, it´s because is the more efficient way to play. It doesn´t mean these guys loop better, it only means they are being more efficient.
I don´t gen rush as survivor because I don´t like it. And I don´t go for camp tunnel as killer because I don´t like that playstyle neither. What I claim is another game mode or casual mode that encourage more action and fun strats.

I played Smite ranked and casual. On conquest casual we had the same rules, but people used to have another mentality. They played there to prove builds, characters or simply because they wanted to play chill. Of course there were some people going very serious, but it was a small percentage.

League of Legends has a casual mode and it feels exactly the same as ranked. The only reason players play casual mode on LOL is so they don't see their rank.
Well DBD doesn't show a rank anyway, so it shouldn't matter.

I wouldn't normally be interested in a competitive version of THIS game... But for double BP? You already convinced me.
