360, body blocking and gesture-to-dying state should be all classified as exploits

360 spun to abuse Field of View esp. vs console killers.

Killers or survivors body blocking survivor(s) all match until dc or match ends in 1 hour.

Abusing the gesture animation to instantly go to the dying state to avoid the dying animation, and recover immediately or crawl to escape boundary.

These honestly should be reportable and bannable. It's considerably too easy to abuse these exploits.

    That's not a technique, that's simply abusing the system.

    Spinning a 360 mess up the auto aim from killers thus you're never able to hit a survivor, and it also distort your field of view.

    This is fine. It's just a tech.

    No its an exploit, as it's two mechanics misbehaving when used together and not intended design used in an unintended way (which is a tech).


    Otherwise good points.

    360ing and body blocking have been here since the beginning of the game, it’s not an exploit.

    the only problem I have with body blocking are people that use the BT effect offensively to body block the person that saved them

    They aren't saying 360 should be bannable, I think I know what they're saying, it's just not worded the best.

    I think what they mean is on console, a survivor can spin you out of control very easily because of DPI settings and they can run into the killer which makes the screen go weird

    Well the FoV tech isn't an exploit. Although, they should just add an FoV slider to the game. FoV is an accessibility option and always will be.

    Directly quoting the OP, "These honestly should be reportable and bannable."


    I have a little experience with console DBD. The answer to spins and FoV techs isn't to literally BAN people for them, it's to give us some controller settings.

    I agree with this.

    I've said for ages that to keep this as fair as possible, all the Devs have to do is enable mouse and keyboard to be used on console. Consoles allow for it, it just has to be activated on the Devs side of things

    Not good enough.


    Literally almost every game that releases nowadays has controller settings. DBD has non-equivalent sensitivity and that's it.

    Come on I suck as killer on Xbox and even my sorry ass doesn't get spun any more.

    Now the aim-dressing messing up and making me instead hit trees, rocks, walls, the thinnest of air. Yeah, that's a thing and should be fixed.

    Controller options should just be a basic feature in the first place. The option to use K&M has also been asked for many times over the years. Sadly they have stated lots of times they have no plans to add it.

    As a console player I will say that they seem to turn aim dressing up lately because the amount of times I've just randomly hit something outside my fov lately is ridiculous.

    On a side note anyone notice hit detection been off? Like your pretty sure that it hit but it didnt?

    Indefinite bodyblocking with the intent of holding someone hostage is already bannable.

    The other things you listed aren’t exploits.

    I don't want to be rude or anything, but uh, you know, this is kind of...

    A Skill Issue

    360°s are not hard to counter, even if you're a console killer.

    The point tech is kind of a... I don't know. Its so rare and situational that its not really impactful.

    And, as everyone has already stated, bodyblocking someone into a corner is bannable.

    P.S. Before you call me a "survivor main", I play 70+% killer and have almost never, in my 2K hours of playing DBD run into a large issue with any of these.

    When I played on Console, I rarely got spun, it was just a matter of being patient and calm so you dont fumble the bag.

    You could argue "auto aim screws people over a lot", but like, that's just auto aim being auto aim, being on Console does not change that, like when is auto aim not terrible?

    Oh right, why not also bad for CJ tech? Abusing that poor killers have only one button for multiple actions..

    Yeah just no, if you would ban for this. You would need to apply it on killers too.

    All Blight mains would get banned for exploits. Wesker and Oni too.
