Do people find knockout/slug/no hooks playstyle fun if it drags out for 30+ minutes?
Just asking.

But it's not the usual meta slow down perks. People should be having fun with this :^)

Do survivors find it fun to stand around at a gate instead of leaving dragging a game out for longer?
9 -
Make a thread about it? It has nothing to do with this I am just asking if it is fun for people.
And I don't like bm'ing myself. Also I play both sides. Calm down?

No. I don't imagine they do. I just like a normal 10 15 minute game. Win or lose, gets some chases in, few saves and heals and a genny.
That is fun, win or lose. I am not a fan of niche gameplay I guess.
But, to be fair, I'm not a fan of survivor teammates playing around with me , pointing at gennys, spinning, hook spamming just for shiggles. I prefer to just play the game.

"It has nothing to do with this I am just asking if it is fun for people." Im just asking the same.
"And I don't like bm'ing myself." It's not always that, sometimes survs are just flogs.
"Also I play both sides. Calm down?" I wasn't angry, just asking a question that's the same for Killer mains. Albeit semi rhetorical.

If I'm running that build I'm playing a killer like nurse or blight that's going to end it way faster

If you are asking the same then open a topic about it.

I really didn't want this thread to turn into this. Thanks whoever said if they find it fun or not.
I am not attacking nor criticising that playstyle I am just curious if people find it fun.

Why do you think anybody would have fun getting slugged on the ground for most of those 30 minutes? I once had a mach against a killer doing that/running that build. It was a Legion and he would always make sure 1 survivor was up do pick up the slugs, just to slug right again after that. No one was playing the game at that point. I went into a corner and tabbed out.

Impossible for survivors to all be standing in the exit game for anything more than 2 minutes, especially when a killer can just hold W and force them out, making this comparison is so obtuse because they aren't even close to the same thing but what can we really expect from this forum?
Darn, survivors stood in the exit gates for maybe 2 minutes, better make a match last 30 minutes and just continously slug over and over again 🙃

Slugs do win games, hooks don’t. That’s why people slug.

A build is a build. It's something different and if a survivor dislikes it they can just hold the sprint button so they can't get healed and bleed out in 4 minutes.
Technically true lol honestly would prefer to face this every once in a while. I like variety in my games.
Funny thing is if this was a post titled "Do survivors find 4 Head-ons, map offering and not doing gens playstyle fun for 30 minutes?" Your reply would also work for it lol just get rid of the slowdown part.
Killer can just push them out. It's annoying yes but it doesn't prolong a game for an absurd amount of time.
Also survivors can get protection hits for WGLF or challenges by waiting at the door to be hit out. Your argument doesn't work for this thread.

Players who play a Build like that dont have fun but just play to annoy the other side.
Yesterday I had a few Killers who decided to play as annoying as possible. I dont mind strong Builds, I mind being an ######### just to ruin other peoples experience.
And players who decide to just run Knock-Out and Slug into Bleedout are only doing it to be a pain for the other side. And you have to really question their mentality, if someone only plays a game to ruin it for others, they really have some issues.

i may not want to do it, but if it helps me not let survivors escape i'll have too. i've yet to use knockout since many of the killers i want it on do not have it.
so fun: depends on the game, i do feel bad for all out slugging though.

No because when players slug, it's a personal thing. You lose rank points and blood points, there's no good reasons for slugging.

"Killer can just push them out. It's annoying yes but it doesn't prolong a game for an absurd amount of time."
Depends on how often it happens eh?
"Also survivors can get protection hits for WGLF or challenges by waiting at the door to be hit out."
So the only way i can get you to end the game faster is to reward you for prolonging the game?
Yeah cool.

I love to play a very slug heavy twins usually like 5-6 hooks 4k and really game dont last that long I find games where I slug a lot end quicker than usual 12 hook games since it normally happens at like 4 or 3 gens. IKf you are talking about letting people bleed out thats just a dick move and pointless.
0 -
Slug works to force someone of the gens to help him back up (unless he has unbreakable), now if you talk about put every survivor in the ground and let them bleed out then yes, pretty boring stuff unless you do some weird afk shenanigans like some youtube vids
0 -
I see almost no difference in whether the survivors are left on the ground or on the hook. It's just as fun on both sides to me.
Only difference being it's actually slowing the gens down some and being nice by giving you more chances to live. There's also a plethora of anti-slug perks anyway.
What's the problem?
A 30min game from slugging is also extreme hyperbole and not even close to realistic. The hate of slugging in this game is totally irrational.

What did u expect? U need to reword the question.
Is it fun when 2 Survivors hide for 1 hour while the killer is searching for the last 2 remaining Survivors?
U pretty much know the answer to ur own question.
0 -
Well I should expect either survivor or killer mains going berserk over a question when I make a thread I guess.
People who play one side and consider it a part of them usually get offended by everything and see it as a personal attack.

How to make an issue ok:
Bring up another issue that has nothing to do with it!
huge

Is it fun to play against? No not really.
Do I accept it as part of the game, you're darn tootin'
Have I taken advantage of being left on the ground and crawled my way to hatch several times? Yup.
If I'm slugged, I'm not going to stay where I'm left, and now begins the mini game of 'can I guess where the hatch will spawn', it's always somewhat satisfying when the answer is a big old yes and I slither down it seconds before the killer can get to it in time.
Being slugged is boring as hell, so I entertain myself, and sometimes it pays off.

As long as you have Deer Stalker and hook everyone when all 4 down. Its more fun than tunneling.
0 -
I do. I enjoy chases and this gives me chases and is a viable alternative to slowdown perks that get removed in 30 seconds in some brackets of mmr. If people don't like this playstyle they should consider if they like DBD at all.
0 -
Idk about offended. But it's a pointless thread. Just my opinion.
0 -
Ah I've versed these types of builds before I just go afk and put on music lol
0 -
It's fun, 30+ min is the survivors fault though. Gens are quick and if things last that long survivors are doing more hiding than repairs.
