Your dbd games

Been playing mostly solo survivor last night and the games have been surprisingly ok. Got a couple of bad games, but that's about it.

As killer though it feels like I've been getting paired with elite SWFs. And toolboxes every match. I haven't played killer in a while because of breaks from DBD and long queues, so maybe that's why.

Overall, it's been an ok experience though. Not too bad, not too good. Just in the middle.

Solo q is still bad for me my escape rate is too low, I've read that players are adapting but I don't see it in my games, can't say I'm having fun no. I'm abusing the tap gen bug so I don't need to escape anyway

Haven't been playing much this week, I had to go to London urgently for dog/housesitting duty

I played one game of solo survivor yesterday and it was terrible, a 3 hook 2k with a lot of a hook punching by a nemesis who didn't appreciate none of us going down until 4 gens had been done

Also this is Buffy:

It depends, like yesterday I had 5 great games and it was fun, but next 8-9 games was so bad, lot of DCs, lot of survivor suicide on first hook, and like this morning I was playing mostly against nurses and blights tho, i dont mind to play against them, but not every game pls.

Matchamking in SOLO-Q doesnt exist, not sure why players still talking about matchmaking since its RNG.

Well like i m saying You can have some games fun and some games can be frustrating and waste of time, it depends.

MMR is still random it seems. When i solo q i still get a lot of team mates who barely know how to stay on a gen. Honestly i blame streamers for this. Most streamers don't run information perks b/c they just know based on sound or some other que where the killer is and what they should be doing. So all these survivors don't equip any info perks, not even kindred, and then hide in a locker or just crouch somewhere as soon as they hear the TR. if you're solo, please run kindred or bond and OTR. it goes a long way.

My killer games are kinda similar. Some games i get teams who are clearly solo. While other games I face off against a swf squad who know which gens to push & stay positioned near safe loops.

Overall i'd say it's a better experience since the update on both sides. MMR needs help but i've had no issue adjusting my game play for the new updates.

Bringing any perk which deactivates upon performing a "conspicuous action" so OtR, dead hard, DS now gives you 50 survival points whenever you tap a gen or totem or something

I've been having fun -- it's why I play, and nothing has changed on my end dramatically enough to warrant that being different.

Had a mixed bag of survivor rounds yesterday -- some escapes, some deaths (playing as anything from a 2-person SWF to a full-on 4-person SWF). Was facecamped by a Bubba at 5 gens, but I was as angry at my teammates (who were part of a 4-stack SWF) who refused to do gens while I stayed on the hook (one was breaking totems for a Rift challenge!) and fed the Bubba a 3K that would have been a 1K (me) if they'd played correctly. There were a couple of killers who tunneled/camped, but nothing more than the norm, and in some of those instances, game circunstances dictated they were the right plays. Overall, we had fun.

Playing killer yesterday, matches don't feel much different than they were beforehand. I played an anti-healing Doctor build (with NO gen regression, other than the bonus to a Huntress Lullaby missed skillcheck) and still had someone rage-quit, two people who went to 2nd stage on first hook because survivors sat on gens while I was a mile away from the hook, and two teabaggers for no reason other than BM'ing (I ended with a 4K, which was satisfying). I played some Battle Pig builds (Enduring, STBFL, Dissolution) with either no gen slowdown or next-to-none (I finally started slapping on PR as a 4th perk). The games with NO gen slowdown, even when I was getting down fairly quickly and rapidly, gens were flying. I ended up with games where I had 4-5 hooks in the first 5 minutes of a game and all 5 gens were still popping in that 5 minutes (I ended up with mixes of 0-2 K's in those games, usually because some unlucky person with an active trap was literally trapped in the match with me and no hope of their party hat coming off once that last gen popped, and I usually got the 2nd kills from altruistic teammates trying to save them). When I threw on PR, I was still seeing gens fly (Corrupt is still very useful, even after its change) -- had a couple of 4K's, and some 0-2 K's with that build, with gens still going at an alarming rate. Every team seems to have at least a Commodius, a BNP toolbox, and PT somewhere in their builds.

Overall, it's not been much different than before the patch, to be frank. Survivor has gotten a little tougher, but it's not impossible to escape, even solo. If you're playing a "lower-tier" killer with no gen defense against solid survivors, you're going to see gens fly, even if you're playing well and getting downs. I still see clueless teammates as survivor, and MMR being weird as always, I do still get occasional lobbies as killer with survivors who also seem helpless. So for me, it's the same-old, same-old honestly.

Solo queue is hot garbage. Between survivor DC's and refusing to do objectives and sweaty "4k at all costs" killers its brutal.

Survivor side games feel the same as usual, not much different pre patch, though I equate that to not running many of the nerfed perks. I did run DH but Ive swapped that out now for Lithe. Bond, Prove Thyseld, and Windows still killing it.

Killer wise again, kind of the same, though slightly more successful now since not seeing the same builds. Only issue is all the DCs and rage quits, but thats on those Survivors and thats it.

My survivor games feel different, but not really much harder. More DCs/suicides/throwing than normal, but not to an outrageous degree. Escape rate feels a little down, but I really attribute this mostly to people feeling out new builds, and being less efficient.

I haven't been playing nearly as much killer as I normally do (loving the surv queue time), but I feel like surv MMR must be busted right now, because I have been going against clearly inexperienced survs a lot more. I'm getting more 4Ks, but this feels to me clear like a function of a drop in the level of competition. Like teams so green I almost feel bad killing them.

Either that or <puts on tinfoil hat> a lot of people are playing, but just flat out aren't even trying, or throwing.
