Bubba needs a nerf bat to the ground. His special is too strong and lasts for too long.

I do consider face camping at the beginning of the game toxic. It does nothing but ruin the game (even killers won't benefit much from it if the survivors are smart). However, I do understand camping when gens are done, or the last one is about to be completed. That makes sense.
1 -
That's fair but I just get tired of the word "toxic" because it's way overused on these forums and also when your opponent plays a certain way.

You are sort of correct. Your best bet is to have them save early and tunnel that person of hook and camp their second stage. So yes, camping immediately is not very efficient, but committing to a victim that you will camp early is very necessary or you might not have time to secure it later.

The nerf you are proposing would make him weaker than he was prior to his buffs when he was in the running for weakest Killer in the game.

Wish I could, but I’m not a dev.

You think Bubba is overpowered. I'd rather not leave balance decisions in the hands of someone incredibly inexperienced like that.
5 -
According to the devs, tunneling and face camping equals skill. Bubba is, by far, the best killer at displaying that skill.

It’s a good thing you’re not.

It’d really suck for DbD to be better balanced after five+ years, wouldn’t it?

Leatherface is called the cannibal should be called the camper.🤣

You must learn that against a bubba you dont save without a second chance perk. Yes he can camp but if he is camping the rest of you are safe to do gens and escape and use windows as much as possible. Just dont ever go for a save if you can help let that persons 1st hook be a lesson to you all if he finds anyone else he will also camp and punish you. Sometimes over altruism is the death of an entire team remeber that. Your basically asking for a speed limiter bubba which everyone would riot over

How about no to that change, and do something more in line to avoid camping scenario, similar to Twins parking Victor near the hooked Survivors; while not make it so that the charge slowly loses charge over time, based on distance from the hooked Survivors.
So that way, Bubba cannot hide in the basement and keep bit a distance away from the hook; while still have a strong anti looping power to down mutiliple Survivors at once.
Also quit complaining about Bubba is too op and he needs a massive nerf to oblivion; we get it. "I hate be face camp by a Bubba, I hate the fact I cannot save my teammate, with a Bubba nearby". Bubba is not exactly a strong killer, unless you and your team makes yourself a easy target by joining his "basement party" with the hook Survivors; you are simply giving them what he wants, Easy Hooks, delicious salty tears!
I am fine with the current power, and the ability to curve and down mutilple players with the chainsaw; but I can understand why the Survivor dislike the fact saving is not a easy task when he is near.

DBD is in one of the most balanced states it's ever been in its history. And yet you somehow don't have the slightest grasp on balance.

What in the #########
2 -
Why would one of the weakest killers need his power nerfed?
2 -
Bubba needs his chili burst speed back
6 -
You lost me at "there is no looping".
Like... what? He is one of the most easily looped killers in the game!

Or...
how bout just..
Git gud,

Camping is not toxic lol nothing in the game is toxic exept the chat
2 -
Kindred, vaulting, well timed pallets.

He was recently buffed bc he use to be garbage. Learn how to play against him and stop whining.

Are you mad? 20s? In todays meta that's half a gen that you can do nothing, but watch pesky survivors dance circles around you.
Sadly Bubbas kit works exceptionally well to facecamp, but if you don't do that, he is a pretty awesome killer that puts the fear back in survivors.
Nowadays survivors don't fear any killer anymore, have so many second chance perks that some don't know where to put them and disrespect the killer whenever possible. All this cute shenanigans don't work against Bubba, for when you joke around, you risk going down asap and unglamorous. Bubba is what all Killers should be: a menace that's dangerous to be around and whoms attention you wanna evade as much as possible, not someone whom you seek out to play around with and torment till you are bored and finish your 5th gen casually.
And because of this they hate him, for they want this last reminder of the fear of old gone. Gone and forgotten. But Bubba only smiles, revves and saws and you better stop complaining and start running.

Use windows, learn how to loop. Bubba is not that strong there are many killers that are better so this is simply you not willing to learn how to counter this killer.
"Nerf this killer because I'm a bad player" yes this is another of these threads.
2 -
You are right, 20 seconds is too short. 40 seconds is much better so he guranteed loses the gen upon canceling a rev.
3 -
I kinda love the "nerf bat" instead of the hammer. I will steal that.
^ This is what piggy sees every update.
2 -
Perfect example why you NOT want to balance for NEW and / or BAD players. Even when they're the loud, screaming mass.
6 -
I always say nerf bat because as a kid, I actually had a nerf bat. I do not think they sold hammers... But you never know!
1 -
Me from eu not even knowing that exists until I googled it now. :(
I thought op was being original.
2 -
it's funny how it's kinda obvious you're a noob by just the phrasing
2 -
Max Payne, is that you?

The truth was like a green crack through my brain. Weapon statistics floating in the air, glimpsed out of the corner of my eye. the repetitious act of shooting, time slowing down to show off my moves. The paranoid feeling of someone controlling my every step. I was in a computer game. Funny as Hell, it was the most horrible thing I could think of.
3 -
Its my first comment ever and it's to tell you that this is the most stupid thing I've seen on the forums.
4 -
This has all the watermarks of a high quality troll post, so it’s probably completely serious. I’ll bite. Just hold W and pre drop pallets. Vault the occasional window. You’ll be alright. Bubba is decent but miles away from OP.

Camping bubbas are the worst. Especially if you're the one stuck on the hook. I don't think he should be neefed but maybe just a slight tweak to penalise camping a little bit. For example if he stays within 1m or so of the hook for 45 second (3/4 of one health state) then he can't us his special for as long or it only down two people (something like that anyways) and then the if he stays past that time the penalty gets bigger. So 70 seconds would be even shorter special or just one person. Not all the way to 0 but just a little bit for surviors to work together if they want to see if they can give the person on the hook one last chance to play that game.

Thank you, clearly I'm a professional, lol

yea sure dude lest punish the killer for using his power correctly haha funni.
2 -
terrible idea... no one would even play Bubba anymore.
0 -
I agree his special lasts too long. They could nerf him to have only one stack and he would still be a good killer. He is way too overpowered for the amount of effort needed.

ty Sluzzy ily

Why do you call it special too?

🤣😂

He need to pick up gas whenever he does his ability. It not fair that he allowed to hit me into a dying state. I swear I'm gonna quit this game.
0 -
So the OP would know what I was talking about. His special ability.
1 -
no

I know you're asking Sluzzy, but you can tell OP is a very very casual inexperienced player by just their usage of that term lmfao

Please, you complain about Cannibal being OP...
Have you ever tried playing him and I mean, playing him as in "chase survivors"? He can be pretty demanding to hit and good survivors will give you a run for you money. If you try to run loops tight, enjoy your tantrum. If you do not, enjoy the survivor running you for a while. Playing against a Cannibal that goes chasing is challenging but rewarding as with every Tantrum you trigger on him you quit some distance.
You are right that Cannibal that camps is bad. However you suggest a nerf to his baseline ability which is quit fine.
Most complains about him being able to down multiple survivors have to do with camping. This issue needs to be solved on its own. Other complains about his multi-down are from greedy people who sit on the generator without Sprint Burst when Cannibal walks up to them reving his chainsaw. This was bad gameplay and should be punished.
His ability does not last too long. This is not a fact it is your personal perception. He does not close gaps instantly, he slows down when he revs that chainsaw...
Long story short: Camping Bubba = Camping problem, not Bubba problem. Trying to run Bubba as you run a Wraith = Bad gameplay, punishable by getting chainsawed. AoE insta-down = punishment for greedy survivor, learn to split up (good tactic anyway to apply maximum pressure on the Killer).

that is why bubba is strong killer and billy is trash

This killer is a failed one! Unbalanced as hell. It's unacceptable how bad can be this killer at chases and all he can do is facecamp because it's impossible to save against a decent player. He must be very idiot or not paying attention to success a save against him.
1 -
So basically, make his power completely useless?
Bubba is fine, leave him alone.
