You might as well design killer bots rn
This new update is going to reduce the numbers of killers in the game. Survivors will not switch to killers because they understand that this upcoming update is in survivors' favor. I am really not looking forward for this update to go live because I already have a bad feeling that the queue times for survivors are going to increase drastically which will only make my friends play less and less.

You are going to see people here mock that this has been said for years. I think this is different.
Most casual Killers don’t know the specific changes that are happening. They don’t know about MFT or increased Survivor vault distance. What they do know is that it is way harder to catch Survivors. They finally get one, 3 gens done, they camp, what else are they going to do? Survivor unhooks self throwing some tbags as they gain distance. Rest of the gens finish, other Survivors can body block unhooked Survivor, tbag party at the gate. Do you really think that killer is going to load into another game?
Just wait till they add their solution to 3 genning and I doubt their anti-slugging plan has been disbanded.

Yes I'm so sure killer will be unplayable after this change. Like it has been said 50 times in the past year. Learn how to play and move on, it's really not that serious mate.

the blood point incentive is pretty much always on killer for me now which is quite worrying
Lot of the changes that have been made have been based around newer or weaker players were as long term players have paid the price
Higher level killer players are limited to the strongest killers an builds or lose. On survivor seeing certain killers especially on certain maps they have no chance of doing anything. Growing numbers of players i have encountered over the past few months confidently say if they see certain killers with their friends no matter the killers skill level if they play certain killers they have 0 chance of winning. It never use to be this way as someone such as myself who likes variety on both sides its very troubling. An i suspect its gona be be nruses an blights for the near future as people aren't gonna play to lose. Of course i could play solo que but you get people who insta give up on hook hide all game.

Killer Main here, I had absolutely no issue on the PTB. If the Survivor are just too good for you to catch, just take the L and go next.

This topic turned into, "u mad becoz bad" awfully quickly. It's someone concerned that queue times for Survivors will increase, causing their friends to play less. That doesn't sound like a Killer player, that sounds exactly like someone that plays in a SWF and is worried about getting less games with their friends.
I swear, people on this board are so quick to pull the, "You must suck" card that they never get beyond the first sentence.

Queue times used to be main reason I didn't like survivors even as SWF (I can play only evenings).
It used to be quite balanced after healing nerfs.
Well, then MFT, buffed vaults, Buckle up + FTP joined the game. This patch is really not going to help. It will just get longer queue times and even more tunneling, have fun...

Killer bots would be a great idea. Instead of backfilling newbie killers against survivor squads with 1000+ hours, just give those survivors a bot. They get to dunk on an idiot for 10 minutes and teabag at the exit gates, and no actual human has to suffer the other side of it. Then, hopefully, the newbie killers get matched against survivors of roughly equal skill and get to actually enjoy the game. Everyone wins.

If you didn't camp before this will not affect you at all.

IDK. Day before yesterday I had 50% incentives for survivor. At 7pm. That's peak of prime time for survivors. Usually it's survivor incentives here in EU for most of the day but during prime time it swaps to killer incentives.
Also - map reworks most definitely favor ONLY killers. I don't even consider upcoming changes any-sided (it will buff my killer, because I don't camp and easier map is just easier. But sure enough some killers do camp and they will have to learn the game instead).

That’s DBD for you
if you dont agree with what other say they are going to flame you
truly awful what this community became

No
thats true until you go onto any map with multiple floors
the size radius extends above floors so maps like the game become hell

Have you even test it on PTB?
because it's simply not true... just from a fact that it makes basement completely useless

As long as any survivor is in that area it does not go up.

I was on the PTB.
So I guess you are one of those Bubba, Trapper or Hag people who camp basement?
I suggest you watch some of the footage of one of the most famous Basement Bubba content creators showing that he could still camp basement without issurs

I would be interested in that video. Would you mind at least advertising his name so I can find him? (I am not that lazy to ask you to link the video directly here) :)

Obviously, people here haven't read and watch the threads and video evidence posted on the PTB Feedback forums showing why the system as it was implemented in the PTB is broken as hell and the only thing it does is punish killers that are not even camping while allowing the old same campers like Bubba still do what they have being doing.
That's not even true, unless they implemented a patch in the PTB I'm not aware. It goes up slower, but it still go up. Also, it goes up the moment you hook someone, so if you hook and stay in range because you are cleaning the chase by kicking a pallet nearby or even in another floor, all that time the bar is going up.
In other words, survivors only need to force you to chase them around the hook for you to give them a free unhook and more of your time wasted.
For this reason I have to say that I'm not worried about the next patch, as I think that by now they should know that the AFC can't go live in that state. But yet again, is BHVR who we are talking about, so...

Probably he is referring to this one:
And it is only me, or you guys are treating him like he was Voldemort or something?

I will be happy if my killer que will not last 10min :D
Yeah, based on PTB, this anti-camp needs some tweaks here and there.

It goes up slowly

BTW this again. Survivor at 8pm in EU. There won't be any problems any time soon - especially considering map reworks. Because now even during killer-incentive-prime time it swings to survivor

Survivor queue for me is already between 5 and 10 minutes, which is ridiculous tbh
0 -
What region are you? Because for me it's about 3 minutes or less. EU (most commonly connected to Frankfurt AFAIK)

I play in NA servers i think.

Interesting. I never thought there would be such a difference

But that's the plan, soon or later this is going to happen, killers are going to be replaced with bots and the game turn in a co-op pve
