How many matches per day/week do you play?

It’s so strange sometimes imaging that all of you are the people that make up a portion of this game. We discuss theory, mechanics, balance, humor etc about the game all the time on these forums. Yet you’re all still out there tearing it up and getting torn up.

I wonder, how often do you all play? How many matches a day/week do you play?

    Hard to say. I have kids who keep me busy, but on school days I'll play 1-2 hours max, usually like 10am-midday. Some days I don't play at all. If I'm doing housework I have a tendency to do one chore, then have a break by playing a match, do another chore, then have another game break πŸ˜‚ I basically just play whenever I have a moment to spare and am in the mood. During events though I tend to put in good hours lol

    I used to play daily. Nowadays I play maybe 4 days a week. On those days I will play a couple of hour's worth of games. Maybe three to four hours if I am doing swf.

    Honestly, it is hard to say. I'm currently on vacation and I am playing DBD almost the same way I played during the old days, so it must be quite a lot of matches per day.

    On my days off work I’ll play the game for 10 hours straight

    6 hours on Saturday and Sunday. Average 3 matches per hour so about 36. (all killer games)

    when i play only survivor matches they add up much quicker.

    I have gone from playing 3 hours minimum a day to literally just logging in, doing my daily, log out and go play something else.

    Probably around 2-3 hrs a night. Having over 6k hours in the game I felt I needed a different game to play other than the same few I always played.

    This game doesn't have a mmr/community or a ranking system to make me enjoy the game. Striving for a higher potential only results in boredom, If anything I peaked on killer a year ago. I've come to realize that forcing many handicaps on myself only hurts my fun, but at this point providing no handicaps would result in me not playing at all. This game just doesn't suit me right now, at least when I was a young dbd player I had motivation to try hard and could despise survivors for their busted, bot-like, auto carry builds I could try hard, but 6.1.0 happened and players didn't get better while also losing a large portion of power.

    Now I have to hard handi cap myself in many ways, something I would never do in any pvp game ever.

    10 killer games a month, 30 survivor games.

    I was riding that new game high for quite a while last year, and was basically playing all hours outside of work most weeks.

    Now I'd probably say 3 weekdays I'll usually play an average of maybe 5-8 games. On weekends I tend to play for some pretty heavy stints... maybe 20-30 games worth on at least 1 day of the weekend.

    So per week I average somewhere between 40-50 games a week.


    I'm really trying to get into the habit of stopping at 11pm or so though no matter what... which can be really hard to do after a particularly rough game πŸ˜…

    When we're active usually 6-13 matches on a weekday. As much as we can take on a weekend.

    I'd say 3, maybe 4 days of the week. 1-2 hours max per session. Don't play it like I used to.

    I'm usually running Corrupt Intervention, Pain Res, STBFL and Brutal Strength. If you see a Freddy with that build, maybe it is me :)

    SA. Though the game sends me to other places sometimes, especially before dedicated servers were introduced.

  • I haven't played much since the Rift closed. When the Jonah skin came out the other day I thought I'd try it on. Played 3 matches and said to myself that's enough DBD for me.

    Maybe about 3-5 matches a day now. I used to play like 5 hours a day at one point.
