seems like 7.7.0 didn't decrease enough of player.

Don't know why every time when player base increase enough BE will start to nerf killer again.

The data just show you again and again that buffing killer = more player ,nerfing killer = less player.

But BE is sill so insist on nerfing killer every time they can even if it will decrease the player base.

    BHVR is completely loyal to the survivors who pay them the most.
There is no reason to be kind to a small number of murderers.
If you offend the survivors, you'll lose players, so it's highly likely that you're trying to get the survivors in a good mood by nerfing the killer who doesn't stop playing even if you bully him.

    but what make me don't understand is that isn't true.

    Data just show you that offend killer will cause player drop again and again.

    But BE doesn't care at all.

    Every time when player grow enough they will start to nerf killer and only when player base drop to a unhealth number they will then force to buff some killer.

    WHY?

    BE?

    It’s Behaviour Interactive. Not sure where the E would come from.


    This is also stooped in claims that are based on shoddy info.

    Steam charts aren’t an indicator of the whole playerbase, let alone the killer side.

    The player count always decreases before a new chapter release and increases after it. It's been like this since forever, but the average player count always stays about 40k, no matter what. Not even EBMM could cripple it, even though people kept crying about leaving the game for good, they all eventually returned after a month or so. This playerbase is quite enduring and loyal, so the player count will get back after the new chapter, as it always did. And as always, people still try to make an argument with this wave-like player count, as if there were a competitor to DbD where all the players could exile to.
