How Are Your Games Going For You All?

I've been quite busy for the past few weeks, and now that I have some free time, I was wondering how your games have been going for you, along with the Halloween event. @GannTM Have you been giving Spirit a lot of company while I was gone? :D

Just a small update as well, my leg is even better than before, I don't need to stay in a wheelchair as much as I got used to using crutches a lot, I am going home in about a month, and I am counting the days. Very excited.

Miss you all! :D

    I play right before I go to bed at like 12-4AM and they are all very very sweaty. Though I am fine with that. Started running gen regression for the first time in a few weeks the last game I played last night.

    Hi my friend! Great to see you again! Unfortunately I haven’t really been playing DBD at all lately. I’ve just lost my passion and interest for the game. Valorant is taking most of my gaming time and I’ve been very invested in football lately (despite how much favorite NFL team sucks right now) so idk when I’ll get back into DBD but maybe I’ll start playing the game like I used to soon. I do miss Spirit though, but she’s always in my heart 😊

    I usually get too exhausted when I play that late Haha. When I play sweaty it for some reason makes me less wanting to play the game, I usually go for chill and wholesome games as Spirit, but I hope you have been enjoying them at least.

    Understandable, I take tons of breaks from DBD as well either from frustration or when I am not in the mood to play. When you earn your motivation to play the game again, Spirit will be there for you. Football though is a lot of fun, though myself I am a volleyball person. :D

    It was very rough for me at the beginning of the event, but since I've completed the Halloween Tome I've just been playing as chill as I can. I really hope we see more classic monsters and vintage costumes as cosmetic items next year!

    Oh first thing I wanna do when I boot up DBD is play Spirit and continue my P100 grind! 😊

    a mix between casual randoms (chill mode) and SWF teams (tryhard mode), the important is to adapt at the situation that you are facing. it would be nice if this game will stop giving me dailies for the twins and hillbilly since they are boring and miserable to play.

    I mean I do enjoy them, 3 green med kit's and 2 styptic agents is a lot to handle so I put on pain res for a game. What I want most in this game is great players, not average player's running the strongest things. Was my big problem with the old survivor meta, but either way it give's me a good challenge so I am fine with it. I'm glad it's someone like me who mains blight getting these games and not some poor Billy. And when I say sweaty it's not like I am hard tunneling the first person out or running full regression as I have not kicked a gen in 8 months plus. I went off topic there for a second, yes they are great and I hope the game is just as fun for you when you are able to return to it!

    I really wish they added more Michael and Laurie skins. Glad to know your games gotten more chill. :D

    It's hard to get p100 when I am constantly above the cap not spending it.

    I actually tried Spirit for the first time this weekend for a daily, and what the hell, she's so fun to play !

    Immediately poured all my bloodpoints into getting her some more addons :)

    Killer games are awesome...at set times. Morning to afternoon are fairly chilled, I often get 1 to 3 very strong loopers and 1, maybe 2 weaker loopers. Chases can be fun but punishing


    Roughly about Night it gets more interesting as most people are on until about 11ish. Higher Chance of SWF group but ALSO a chance at a lobby full of journeyman survivors. Roll of the dice basically either very good players or very bad, games are either cutting it close and entertaining or lame and quick


    Off hours 12 am until morning....no...no no no, no thank you.

    Tbh it's not been that very fun for me lately as killer(hag).

    Boons, med kits, very large maps with no possible 3 gen, and being sorta new makes it to where it's either an incredibly stressful match where I only walk away with 1-2 kills or they DC at first down and I get no enjoyment from that either .

    I've been in lag city, my game is fine while in lobby but the moment ai get into game I'm suddenly warping into walls/door frames, getting stuck while vaulting pallets and windows. Missing what should have been very easy hits.

    So I haven't been playing for a bit, as I don't know if it's my internet or the servers that are having a stroke. 🤔

    Either killers camping and tunnelling as soon as the match starts or teammates who drop the pallet as soon as they see it. Not good.

    Really glad to hear you're recovering well! Hope the crutches aren't too bad, because those can be murder on your arms.

    The games are going pretty great. People seem to be a little bit friendlier with the Halloween challenge. You still get unpleasant games, but I've seen an uptick in forgiving killers and memey survivors. The bonus bloodpoints make it so that all but the absolute worst games still give a fair payout, too. I'm having a good time.

    On my last game, I just had a Demogorgon carry me to hatch, close it, and then carry me to the exit gates so I could get some Outbreak Breakout progress. Didn't ask for it, but totally needed it. Best boi continues to live up to his title.

    But I don't think I want to play killer right now with this archive challenge telling survivors to bring green or purple toolboxes, for obvious reasons.

    I just started letting my sons take turns playing with me. I think they'll get skill checks eventually but right now it's hazardous to work a gen with them. So it's been rough. Fun but rough.

    As survivor surprisingly well. I escaped most of them somehow. Might be my current build I dunno, or maybe I was lucky. Did have an unfortunate game where I got hit by NOED on my first hook and died but it was just me and Mikaela left at that point. The only thing maybe I'd prefer to do differently is be a bit more altruistic perhaps. Since some of my teammates seemed newer I did save them and healed tham but I can't say I really traded myself much for them (except once) because I felt it would be the end of me afterwards (like after I get hooked they'd get caught soon after and there would be no one left to save me) but I pipped pretty good and I do wanna reach Iri 1 if I have the time before reset.


    Afterwards I played a bit of Killer, the Artist. I got a game on Lery's and got 3k and gave hatch to last survivor.

    Then I got Lery's again and was playing against survivors who did wanna be chased, unfortunately I was also lagging as hell at the time and would get stuck on walls and I didn't manage to kill any of the two, but I did get their teammates due to NOED. So 2k.


    Then I had a weird game at Yamaoka Residence against 3 Clauds and 1 Yui. For some reason Yui pointed their location to me at the start, maybe they had a spat so that gave me a big advantage, or maybe they were fighting over the locker? I still don't get it and no one replied to me in endgame chat when I asked. I got out with 3k and last Claud got hatch (didn't find her). Some people just made it really hard for themselves because they'd hide in lockers and my birds did show them due to Killer Instinct so they must have been bummed out.

    Been having a great time, bought the Dredge because it was on the sale, not to play but just for Darkness within. P2 him to unlock the perk,

    Gave it to Anna and it's been great, i've haven't played in 6 weeks so my mmr dropped a bit, but my sniping has been on point, landing shots through upstairs windows to get downs, One on the coldwind farm house, over a surv who was blocking me but still got the down on one inside running up the stairs, another on the upstairs opening of the garden of joy mansion.

    The hardest is still the upstairs balcony on dead dog, i just cant seem to get through the rails.

    Doing some great cross loop window snipes, Yeah been alot of dead meat in my games and its fantastic, all that t bagging and exit gate time wasting getting paid for.

    Please tell me you watched the Thursday night classic between our two teams. Funniest game I've seen in a while

  • GannTM
    GannTM Member Posts: 10,886

    Oh yeah I definitely have, I was very upset that game went to overtime because I wanted the game to just end because of how torturous it was to watch. Anyway though, LETS RIDE!

    First survivor game of the night trying to do the new tome challenges. Got tunneled and chased the whole time by a PoS Slinger player just because I had a toolbox.

    So much fun! So glad they make people just trying to do survivor challenges targets for salty sweatlord killer players. What an awesome idea!
