Games are so easy now they're not fun anymore.

Let's take your numbers then:

You take your regression perks and have 10 boring games bc there are too easy. Then you get one 4-man lobby which will probably turn out unenjoyable aswell, bc normally perks won't help you against them either.

You take off regression perks, you have 10 exciting games and 1 where you get stomped on. You get to learn how to chase more efficiently, learn how it is like to get punished for your mistakes and overall have a more dynamic game experience.

You see what I'm trying to say?

I've swapped off gen regressions 3 years ago and haven't regretted it since.

Name a single time this favor was ever given to killer players over the past 6 years.

Let's take your numbers:

You take regression perks:

You get 10 boring games because they're too easy and one (probably) unenjoyable game against a 4-man bc perks probably won't help you either.

You take off gen regression perks, you get 10 enjoyable games and one where you get stomped on (but you need to remind yourself you probably would have gotten stomped on nevertheless). On top of that you learn to chase better, efficiently, learn how it is like to get punished for once mistakes and give all parties a more dynamic gameplay.

See what I'm trying to say?

I got rid of all regression perks (except maybe a corrupt on my trapper) 3 years ago and I haven't regretted it since.

Is this a new trend? Killers complaining about easy matches?

Maybe switch your loadout and go a little easier, so everyone has some fun. Just saying.

I noticed in some of my matches that my teammates don´t do gens at all. Almost like they are allergic to gens. In others they plain out sabotaged the game by suiciding on the first hook.

You must have been so bad at the game you have the lowest mmr possible or you just installed the game if you face so many bad survivors and therefore you have no clue of what you are talking about. High mmr matches are just as hell as before. Stop spreading false informations about balancing when you clearly are not in the condition to speak for everyone. Talking about nerfing gen speed perks is just the next attempt to push devs changing the game in "SWF SWAT the Game" (a game when they can finish all the gens in 3 minutes and spamming gg ez at the end of the match. Wow so fun. But it's the killer's fault (just apply pressure 4head). (insert spongebob chicken meme here).

I suggest by your tone, you're high mmr right? If so, what's your average kill rate if I may ask...?

your playing against really bad survivors if your winning at 5 gens. plague could win against solo survivors pre-patch, She lost to 4 man swf's.

most of the killers did alright against solo-players because solo-play plays the game poorly. they lack critical information to do the most basic actions... like finding teammates to heal in time efficient manner, doing generators when teammate are in chase, looping away from teammates so that your not bringing the killer near worked generators, going for unhooks and so much more. I think awhile back they said they're working solo-q icons to bridge soloq and SWF. who knows when that is happening.

That's the problem DBD always had. People think they are the ones who should balance the game for the Devs. Via "survivor rulebook" or now "nice killer rulebook". There are many people out there who don't give a ######### about other players fun. They will stack their 4 slowdowns and take the easy wins and feel good about themselves. Balancing means you have to take every possible loadout and playstyle into account. You can't just say "oh when the killers see they have easy matches now, they will go easy on the survs and have fun with them".

Yea some people will play "fun perks" and go for 12 hooks, the same as not every survivor before the patch was a DH/DS/UB/BT playiing scumbag who t-bagged in the exit gates. But many won't, as there were many survivor swf's who played with 4x DH+DS before the patch.

If you play like before the patch the games are much easier now. That's just a fact. Not saying it's impossible to lose, i mean it shouldn't. A good team should still beat you. Taking a lose is part playing games. But in general playing killer is much more chill and you have much more second chances now after making mistakes.

Thats where the MMR eventually kicks in and the stomping players suddenly face skilled players that aren´t stomped easily.

I don't record kills every game I play but I can guarantee you if I want to win a match I have to play super sweaty and tunnel and camp in the worst possible way. Aka not funny gameplay. my average killrate is around 2/3 per match but just because I don't play every match that way. I don't consider the 4th kill since it's often binded to luck thanks to the hatch and I don't want to slug everyone just to get the last kill. Anyway I get the 4th on a 50% basis. And yes I am high mmr. Just sweaty swf with all kinds of meta perk and broken add ons such as bnps, agents and insta heals. So yes I often get 2 or more kills but saying it's easy is just a lie, especially if we're talking about ALL killers in the roster. Killers like sadako or the dredge are awful compared to one like the nurse. So even then the killrate is something too complicated to summarize.

Which region and what time do you play at?

My soloQ survivor games have become actually more challenging and fun. Before this patch, they were nothing but a "pop up a gen simulators" that lasted about 5 minutes, mostly. But I hardly ever used those surv perks that got nerfed (DH, DS, IW etc...)

Like many have said, you're probably facing really low MMR players (new players or just plain bad) and/or survivor players that are tanking their MMR on purpose to protest and to send a message to BHVR on how they don't like their crutch perks (which boosted them to levels where they never should've been) were nerfed.

The game was so survivor sided because of DH, DS on Gen and old Boon. Those were the reasons why playing Killers were so frustrated. All of those are dead now which make it fair, the buff wasnt needed.
