Sick of this game.
I'm so [BAD WORD] sick of it. Everything. Behavior have shown that they couldn't make even a decent video game, even if someone done it for them.
Looping? Annoying and boring. The killer can do [BAD WORD] about it and it's boring for the survivors.
Pallets? Broken! Absolutely no counterplay unless you're a killer specifically made to screw them over.
SWFS? Obnoxious, always.
Updates? Broken messes that buff survivors and nerf killers. Like Pinhead, who was literally a worse version of clown, who got [BAD WORD] nerfed. Or bloodlust, the only way to catch people in some loops that also got nerfed a while back. Or GH, who gets screwed over by the stupid ass snowmen.
Gens get done in seconds because the only viable way to play the game is to genrush. MMR is a joke and so are Hex Totems. Boons are completely broken and despite the fact that everyone hates them BHVR still hasn't done anything.
New killer is overrated and the survivor is just lazy, because of course they are. Maps are too big, making it impossible for killers to actually patrol the map.
Or when BHVR gives us a crappy little amount of blood points to 'make up for it. Or the new 'gifts' they're giving us that are actually nothing.
There's so much I could vent about that I can't even think about, like NFTs.
I can't wait for VHS to come out proper, and onto consoles, or the new Leatherface game by Gunmedia. Watching them squirm is good enough, and with any hope it'll push them to actually FIX THEIR GAME.
But they probably won't. This is BHVR after all, and you know what? I'm fine with this game dying. I'm fine with watching it shrivel up and fade away.
I've calmed down since I posted this so there's no real need to reply. Some of the stuff I said I still stand by (like the game being broken) but others I don't (I dont want the game to die though at the time I certainly did).
I actually regret making this thread since I feel the need to respond to the people who comment on it, I won't lock it because I don't like taking away people's ability to comment on things, just going to ask you don't comment.

so I'm guessing you had a few bad games?

Looping is probably the most thing to do as survivor what are you on about?

At least one, I forgot. I had a funny one but I think I've finally snapped. For every good game, you'll just have a 100 more bad ones.

Ah yes, because stealthing is annoying and boring, and looping is annoying and boring, and holding W is annoying and boring, and standing still is annoying and boring, so survivors should just... not spawn into the game at all, I guess?
Like, I get it- I do. This game is frustrating- it's designed to be frustrating- and if you need to take a break then take a break. But there's a lot in here that's just factually wrong- Pinhead's nerf I agree with you bringing up, but Bloodlust was nerfed back in 2.2.0. For anyone unaware, this was the release of The Spirit on September 18th 2018. In case my point is not obvious enough, bringing up a nerf that's over three years old is not the best way to support your claim. Neither is bringing up a mechanic for a seasonal event.
There are definitely massive balance issues in the game- like you mentioned yourself with Boon Totems (mostly COH, tbf- Shadow Step and Exponential aren't horrifically problematic), and changes need to be made for both sides. But saying that the devs don't care about killers, and every single update only buffs survivor further is just wrong.
(Also, ######### NFTs).

Can you name a recent update that didn't buff survivors? Even when they don't make any balance changes they still find a way to give killers the middle finger.
Oh and don't give BHVR any ideas with that joke about survivors.

Yeah actually, two of them; patch 5.2.0 and patch 5.0.0. Also in terms of recent patches, things that have been killer buffs/survivor nerfs, completely off of the top of my head:
Patch 5.4.0, blessing a totem now deactivates DS
Patch 5.3.0, buffs (and nerfs) to both sides of the game (though this also introduced COH so, ######### this patch).
Patch 5.2.0, Nemesis buffs without changes to survivors.
Patch 5.1.0, Trickster buffs, "grab validation"
Patch 5.0.0, Demo buffs
Of course, in all patches outside of 5.2.0 and 5.0.0 there have also been killer nerfs/survivor buffs (the extent to which this affects the game can be discussed- for example, the Vigil change has had a much larger effect than the Any Means Necessary one, and the change to make Blood Favour actually useable has had much less of an impact than the return of 3 Blink Nurse).

Every update has nerfs and some sort of buff for both sides if you want to see a broken game go back to patch 1.0 and look at the bullshit we had to deal with, the stuff everyone complains about can't hold a candle to what was there before, the only thing broken about this game is gen speeds everything else is pretty fair unless you're a killer that's low on the totem pole like the wraith playing against red rank high MMR survivors, the main issue causing this in my opinion is that survivors spawn all separately and right in front of a gen so the killer has less than a minute to find and down the first survivor. That's why killers like nurse, blight, spirit are so popular in high ranks because they have the skillset to compete with the genrushing swf and gain pressure before the gens start popping.

Oh yeah I was going to mention that. Despite how horrifically broken this game is now, its at it's perk in terms of balance.

Here's what I don't get. All these posts about how unfun the game is and how broken it is and how unfair it is and how much you don't like it. Soo why you still playing then?
3 -
That the essential gameplay is repetitive and boring if not for the atmosphere and different killers?
0 -
Because people probably want to enjoy it but the devs shown they don't care
0 -
Looping is boring? It's literally the most fun part of the game.
0 -
I agree with everything. I can't wait to play GUNS TCM The Game and Elden Ring when that comes out. This game DBD NEEDS a TON of HARD WORK! The team isn't up to task.

Well I can tell for the complaining I can tell that just people wanting the devs to do something about it. But, it gets overshadowed by " complaining", and for the other part think about it like this where do you go if there are no other options?
0 -
No you see there's just a plethora of crybabies that the devs unfortunately have to cater to because at the end of the day it's a business and that's what this game is balanced around the constant complaining and crying. Like how people really think BBQ is OP just because they personally don't like it. Or when someone is bad at the game instead of trying to get better oh no that's just OP

Because there's only one alternative right now, and when it's fun it's great.
