"PALLET BREAKING SIMULATOR"

Since this game already new hit validation for pallet, is it me or the hitbox of pallet become bigger? And since SBMM launched I feel the pallet just like infinite respawn on any location??

    It goes on ping with a bias towards survivor. If they have trash tier ping it is your problem somehow and the server will log that they dropped the pallet on you before you even see it in your perceived version of time.

    The worse i have had so far is me at 20 ping being hit validated against a survivor with 100 ping.

    And vice versa, a high ping killer will hit a survivor even though the pallet drop animation is at 2/3.

    Dbd, the only game in the multiplayer history to favor high pingers; to the point i know i´m facing a russian (high ping) before being able to check the steam profile :)

    No they wont. Not if the animation started on your screen.

    i doesn't make any sense. Ping = respond system. Players with lower ping have advantage over those who has high. They probably messed it up just in survivor favour.

    I prefer the older system. I never got hit under pallets as survivor because I didn't risk camping a pallet. I got trades all the time from survivors who messed up. Now? Well, whatever. I play Nemesis. I am used to needing 3 hits to down someone.

    My guy here must have just played The Game.

    Try a Killer with more instant gratification at pallets like Blight with Iri addon or Nemi and let out some stress breaking a couple.

    They do all the time lol. Same at windows. I have 30ms ping, i don´t think that there are many players with a lower ping than mine as the DbD servers are terrible and i have optical fiber, living in western EU and having 10ms ping on every other games.

    I´m pretty sure that the hit validation server is disabled when for the players that have a high ping as it happens all the time against russians playing on western EU servers.

    This... Since hit validation pallet enabled, I'm always gettin' stunned at pallet even the distance is 0.5 - 1 meter away from pallet
