Extended Screaming = Pain
BHVR why did you make survivors scream for a million years after being hooked. It's annoying, no one asked for it and I get headaches just thinking about it. I wish there was a way to shut them up after hooking them. Some survivors have longer screams than others. This change was unnecessary, no one wanted it and it makes the game more annoying than "scary".
If you want "scary" dbd just play Scratch Mirror Myers on RPD/Lery's and watch survivors jump around. It is 1000x more fun to do that than listen to a survivor scream for an hour after being hooked.
And why do survivors scream on hook anyway? Aren't they stuck in the realm for eternity with the Entity and have gotten hooked a billion times by now? Survivors should be used to it. :)
Seriously though, the extended screaming GET RID OF IT

agreed, sometimes I cannot believe how long they scream for. It’s atrocious.

Bro my friend was playing Lisa and she would not shut up. It was so annoying and loud for no reason

We need a setting to turn off hooked survivor screams
9 -
I agree. Change it back to the way it was. I don't know why they make these changes that nobody asked for.

I like hearing the full audio for once. Feels more natural and sounds better imo
12 -
No kidding. I never had issues with audio but as of late, the screams and what not have been piercing my ears.
5 -
This is definitely another one of those unnecessary changes that made things worse
10 -
Nah, i much prefer the full screams since they're more natural than the screams getting cut off prematurely.
7 -
Oh I loooove the scream change, it's awesome.
7 -
The fuller screams sound better and more natural to me. I like it. What they need to do though is make the audio level between all of the screams and noises the same.
6 -
I like the screams sounding more natural, but no screams need to last longer than 4 seconds.
4 -
That’s true. I just never liked how they were cut off.
But yeah someone like Leon can scream for like 8 seconds
2 -
It needs to stop. I don't hit survivors on the hook, but since the change I've had to just to shut them up. Too loud, too piercing, too long. Revert them or add options to the game to adjust them.

This scream bug is the best feature that happened in DbD since the release of this game
This is so funny 😅

FYI - There is nothing "natural" about a long, clean scream after having your chest cavity pierced.
Screaming on hook was already weird by default, this scream change just ups the game's annoyance factor...which is bad, obviously.
Not sure why they don't cast polls for this sort of thing to see whether or not the community even wants it.
2 -
yea they need to go back the way they were or I'm going always hit on hook shut them up..
3 -
As a survivor, please hit us. I can't stand the screams lol

"I wish there was a way to shut them up" @EmpireCity830
Playing survivor: Calm Spirit
Playing killer: hit them on hook

I like it

Hitting a survivor on the hook used to be toxic. Now its courteous.
3 -
Everyone gets a slap immediately.. Sorry if anyone thinks it's toxic.. My ears matter more to me than my reputation

I don't think that just extending the scream sounds natural. It's more weird and irritating.
0 -
The screams are too long, I hope they change them again
0 -
Agreed, it's too long
0 -
I beg you. Shut up every single Lisa you encounter. She will not stop screaming no matter what
0 -
You got my word on that
1 -
I will till but to normal.
1 -
Ngl, I think the endless screams are pretty funny. When it gets annoying, I'll just start smacking them
1 -
whats natural about this change is not how they are long it is how they end in a normal way instead of cutting off awkwardly so you can hear their voices crack or fade in a realistic way at the end but again no scream should last more than 4-5 seconds but should not be also 2.5 seconds like it used to be

Bruh, how dare a person impaled on a hook scream as if their life is gonna end...because it is.
I love the longer screams, its very atmospheric to hear it, especially in an indoor map where the reverberation is in play.
1 -
I like them 😕
0 -
I've noticed a serious uptick in killers whacking me on the hook, haha.
Every time a Leon or a Steve gets off one of those endless porn star wails, I'm tempted myself.
