Fix killer already

Instead of buffing survivors more, introducing more overpowered survivor perks, could you finally adress killers being weak af and totally unplayable rn?

All I see is shadow nerfs for killers and buffs for survivors.

They even buffed DS again, introduced perks without even asking for feedback in the community + they are overpowered, yes.

Another second chance perks...


Killers have issues like not being able to grab survivor off, freeze in place, being stunned by a pallet, causes a 0.1-0.5 seconds animation freeze FOLLOWING the stun, EVERY stun, buggy animations, getting gen rushed, infinite looped (YES, they are back, better than ever), etc etc etc.


I will cease playing killer today and go back to survivor, AGAIN.

Right after I switched to killer again after the Ds nerf, I can now go back to survivor because playing killer is impossible and is diseasious.

    MoM actually has counters unlike old DS.

    Not sure if you are aware but Enduring effects DS, so if you run enduring ds is 100% worthless. New DS is way weaker anyway, even with the 5 sec stun because you dont have to guess if the obsession has ds or not (atleast for the first hook), because it doesnt matter rly.

    any insta-down counters it.

    Using your power to hit them doesn't give it a stack.

    And they dont get a speed boost when they get hit. So it's basically just a dead hard that actually works.

    Pretty much @DudeDelicious

    The only things that truly piss me off are when my totem is broken before I'm able to make it to the totem, heading straight to it as soon as the match starts.

    On the w few occasions I ran Noed on my Spirit at red ranks with no other hex perk equipped. It was almost always the one closest to an exit gate and always faced survivors running towards said exit gate.

    So am I understanding correctly, that you can only play insta down killers now?

    Mhm lets see, that comes down to billy then I guess. Spirit M1s you, hag M1s you, nurse is M1, huntress sucks, plague sucks.... mhm ok all killers play billy now =)

    Mori, Rancor, DH, oh and there's always the famous slugging and ADAPTING. Well there's also the perks been out for 1 day and will probably get tweaked like everything else does after launch.

    Killers truly cannot afford a perk slot for every broken item/perk given to the survivors.

    Not to mention that insta downs for killers literally cost 7k BP which even if you 4k you don't get to keep. If survivors escape the match they not only keep their item but their broken as ######### add ons. Lets stop pretending that BNP was the only broken add on. I can pump a gen out in 45-50 seconds with a tool box and green add ons. Now imagine if all 4 people with this get 4 gens done in roughly the same time. Am I supposed to run NOED every single time just to get 1 single hook? ######### that. Double pallets are back and are ######### everywhere. Jungle Gyms are nearly impossible now. I don't want to use nurse and billy every single game. I find them so god damn boring to play. There's a ######### ton of killers. I want variety. It's time the devs give a ######### and buff them all to billy level. Put the power in killers hands and keep it there for ######### sake. It's asymmetrical. It's supposed to be like that.

    It's almost as if killers don't make massive more amounts of bp then survivors and can also kill them. If the survivor is the 1st one found and gets killed they're lucky to get 2k which doesn't even cover half the cost of an addon let alone the item.


    The amount of whining is incredible, perhaps Hello Kitty is a better game to play or a farming simulator and of course Civilization V is great.


    It's also funny that you say buff all killers to Billy's level meanwhile people are regularly 4king with perkless and addonless Freddy, Pig, Huntress etc. Perhaps it's not so much the killers but the person playing said killer that is the issue.

    It's not like there's two perks to run to get busted items and add ons. For free. It's not like people can't ######### pip right now and are stuck at the same rank I am because of ######### solos so they decide to do swf which ultimately breaks the game in every single way. It's not like I can get better because of this #########. No. I'm stuck where I am at rank 8 due to not being able to pip even with 2 iri's and sweaty ass swf. I used to be able to enjoy this game. Now I avoid it. There used to be some semblance of fun in it. Even as solo survivor. Now, it's either play SWF or get #########. Devs clearly don't give a ######### about its fanbase at this point. Just make ######### cosmetics and more chapters and get money. Cash grab as hard as they can because they know that most people eat it up thinking it will fix all the broken ######### in it. Yes I know the cosmetic department doesn't do that side of things but if they took half the money they earn from each chapter and even hired one ######### person to fix some #########, most of us wouldn't be mad at this. But nah, lets pretend none of these things exist. Also, yeah, I am taking a long ass break from this game. Sekiro is amazing and deserves time into it. Hell, even league of ######### legends is more balanced than this ######### show.

    You obviously didn't read the post. Did you?

    If you use your power to hit them, it doesn't give you a stack.

    If you blink as nurse, that doesn't give a stack.

    If you come out of haunting as spirit, that doesn't give a stack.

    If you teleport and hit as hag, that doesn't give a stack.

    If you DO trigger the perk, it's basically dead hard. You deal with your missed attack stun timer, and pursue chase, and down them again in 10 more seconds.

    So what green tool box add ons are you using to do this? Because as far as I'm aware, the ONLY green tool box add on, is a hacksaw. Which only increases Sabo speed... So.... Are you just complaining to try to look intelligent, or are there add ons that i've never seen in my 500 hours playing this game?

    > Take Zubat and Scott for example, these guys know how to play killer and do well a lot.


    Don't forget these are pro players who put in many hours per day, for years. The average killer doesn't have their experience.

  • Captain_Spaulding
    Captain_Spaulding Member Posts: 587

    My bad, in my rant i forgot that only yellow add ons improve speed. So what? I forget one thing and I'm a moron? I've got 600 hours in this ######### game and I forget one colour? It doesn't change the point at all. Now you're just trying to argue small points to make it so you're right, which won't happen. Everyone knows how easy it is as survivor which is why all killers right now are playing survivor. That's why killers get insta lobbies and survivor are waiting so damn long. Get over it, people ain't gonna wanna keep playing this with the way things are going.

    How are they underpowered? I'd say they're in a good place/slightly too strong. All you have to do as killer is swing through every pallet and window you see and most times you're going to get the hit even if they're past the window or the pallet is in the middle of dropping. That's what needs to go.


    Also, I don't know what game you've been playing but Killers have been getting buffed consistently for the past few months.

    @DudeDelicious Um, no, this isn't about real life its about a game. If this was real life the killers would climb over boxes in loops or throw their weapon... But they don't. Why? Because it's a game. A window is a tools for a survivor to escape the killer, if I'm past the window, there is no reason for me to be hit. It's already a thing with pallets. If I drop a pallet and the killer is on the other side, no matter how close I stand to the pallet, the killer is not able to hit me. So why shouldn't windows be the same? It's not like killers can't reach past the pallet aswell?

  • It's all dependent on your skill level and the perks and add ons you equip as the killer vs the skill level and perks of the survivors. But I do agree that there is a bit of disparity between the effectiveness of perks the killers get vs Survivors it is definitely in their favor it seems like.

    You're joking right if we're talking physics here your hit that shouldn't have connected because it shouldn't land still shouldn't connect. Go out and run up to a wind and see what happens, you won't be able to magically swing 5 feet into the window.


    The only one whining here is obviously the killer aka you wanting something they don't deserve similar to fake pallet hits before. If I as a survivor vault through a window and I'm 3 feet past it before you even get to the window you don't deserve a hit.


    Any person that knows anything about physics will tell you the same thing, if you'r not supposed to get a hit you shouldn't get a hit.

  • powerbats
    powerbats Member Posts: 7,068

    Then you've obviously never gotten hit 5 feet away or gottne hits past that and if we want to talk actual physics then the entire game is full of it. If you want to talk about hit that should hit and those that shouldn't then you're still wrong when a hit shouldn't connect it shouldn't connect.


    By the same token a hit that should connect and doesn't should still connect which dedicated servers should help address somewhat. Now if you're standing right next to the window when they vault yes that should hit.


    But if the run and fast vault and you're not close to the window you don't get to magically clip part of your body through the window frame and get a hit. Now if you think so then you're obviously not taking into account you're swinging your weapon in a downward swing.


    Logic clearly dictates you're going to hit the window frame with your weapon thus MISSING the hit. Now logic also clearly dictates that if you lunge your lunge is going to be slower and thus unless you're right on their ass when they vault YOU'RE going to miss.


    This concludes today's lesson in logic and physics.

    Yeah that's where a lot of the complaints form both sides arise hits that should hit and those that shouldn't. When dedicated servers come online most of the complaints and instances should be gone.


    There'll still be some outliers those furthest from the server will still experience it but then also be able to understand how much of a timing difference there'll be.

    I have a prediction: Dedicated servers won't change anything, except survivors will realize how bad they are and then proceed to blame the servers when they still get hit at windows and pallets. Seen it in lots of games, and DbD won't be any different.

    Lots of people are gonna get humbled by dedicated servers.

    You can't seriously believe that nonsense can you, if you do I've got prime beachfront property on Venus to sell you where the air's breathable.


    If you actually believe that then you're in for a world of surprises as a killer because now without the crutch of latency you're going to show your true lack of skill.

    I'm still in a state of shock from the Thanatophobia nerf, then they nerf crows after it became finally usable.....like why? Why?! Then the new emblem system makes points for killers damn near gutted to the ground. The pip system is terrible now so ranked games are all over the place, mostly from tons of people depipping including killer. Not even on purpose.... Game is unplayable..... I'm an extremely sad piggy.....


    I keep thinking to myself, maybe it'll get better, just need to be patient.
