Kill Switch update: We have temporarily Kill Switched the Forgotten Ruins Map due to an issue that causes players to become stuck in place. The Map will remain out of rotation until this is resolved.

Option for new players

Now I know people will instantly say to suck it up or deal with it, but it is just not a good way to get people to come to play that game or come back. The amount of new killers with overwhelming abilities is ridiculous. To name a the Lich, Dracula, and The Houndmaster are just a few, and I have been in so many games where the players have just given up, and two go down within a minute. It is annoying for people returning who want to enjoy the game and have fun to be put in positions like this where they are put in with a killer who can now all of a sudden fly, teleport, shoot something for damage, and counter loopers so easily. For this, I would really enjoy an option to exclude playing with certain killers because I don't want to be playing the game competitively, but I also don't want to be going into each game thinking this is unfair how do you stop this guy and why are my teammates constantly down with no gen progress. Let me know what you guys think, but for people who are not used to the new killers, don't buy many DLCs, and don't know the new maps which I dislike, it is very annoying and aggravating.

    Well that would make the queue take ages for the killers people dislike for whatever reason (probably all killer that are even remotely able to kill you, lol), and the people excluding killers that are played a lot. Also it's a live-service game of course things change, and people starting a game especially a pvp game shouldn't go in with the thought of winning easily.

    I started playing league of legends a few days ago, and while I win some matches against other people, I get also destroyed brutally sometimes - I didn't expect anything else like I should.

    Of course you have to play for a while until you learn how to counter things, it would be very sad to be able to win easily without any knowledge about the game at all.

    And I am fine if it means I escape or survive 15 out of 50 times even 10, but its not even that, its maybe 5 times at max because people just give up with so many new abilities that these new killers are getting with so many counters that are not easy to learn.

    How many hours do you have at the moment? Dbd is a really time intensive game to learn everything, even with my 3k I still learn new things constantly and I'm still not able to counter every killer. It may also have the reason that I'm playing killer mostly, but it doesn't change the fact in most games this would be a really high hourcount and you'd now almost everything.
