Did you add unsafe palettes to all the maps they told you to? I'm not playing this game anymore.

Do you understand what I mean by time zones?

Most of countries you showed with high wait time are off-pick. Check the same website when it’s gonna be 20:00-24:00 on specific countries. I showed list of countries who are on peak hours, when majority actually playing the game. And it’s showing the survivor queue is more busy.

London server opened rn and it’s on peak, killer queue time is instant. U just manipulating with numbers, and people who lack of mental gymnastic don’t understand why it’s higher killer q time in USA for example, when it’s literally 4 pm and majority of people still on their work or study. Of course it’s gonna be a shortage of role that requires 4 people at the same time.

Frankfurt and London are literally one of the biggest server that connects CIS, Middle East, Africa, and EU. If during peak hours everything is alright with queue on killer side, then you are simply lying that there are shortage of survivor players.

Wow. 6 vs 7. Almost the same. Considering it’s literally 13:47 in Oregon I’m not surprised it struggle with q time.

Just wait 4-6 hours and it’s gonna flip to opposite.

(Exit: here is your hours after)

Seems this really hurts someone's eyes when you can’t feel special playing dbd during myphical shortage of surv players

1. there is a lot in dbd thats luck based, rng, map, hatch spawns
2. 50/50 sounds pretty fair to me which is what most people want
3. you can learn stealth to avoid getting into a position where you need to even use a pallet, maybe people with start to think more instead of running around like a headless chicken

thats your opinion but from what i have seen in these forums there are many that dont share that opinion. there are killers and survivors that would prefer a more casual, party game experience where skill, competitiveness and the must win mindset isnt at the core of the game.

how many causal survivors or killers just hop on the game now and then to get super competitive meta opponents? how many killers let the survivors escape or meme around?

personally i like the luck element to the game, if there was no rng every match would feel the same, its bad enough i get the same killers over and over i would hate to have same map over and over with the same pallet layout every time. im not really sure how you would achieve the whole thing of skill = win in this type of game when theres soloq, an amazingly skilled player can still lose because his 3 team mates refuse to touch gens but you cant force people to do gens if they dont want to.

it would be great for soloq health. killer health? no. which is the issue, it should be about game health as a whole

maybe but my point that people wanted fairness and 50 50 luck based cant be any more fair than that are for the many many many people that have been very vocal about the game being too competitive and hate try hards.

lol 50/50s are killer sided? i have never heard of a 50 50 chance being favoured towards 1 side, if it did it wouldnt be 50 50. if you flip a coin its 50 50 chance of heads or tails….doesnt favour one or the other.

the small loops seem reasonable for most of the killer roster, there are only a few (top tier killers) that the small loops are a death trap but thats an issue with the killers not the loops.

they are not supposed to be "safe". the main issue with the game has always been that survivors have "safe" areas where they know they are untouchable and will always run there. like shack for instance, so many people head for the shack because its often better to abandon chase and go for someone else than chase around the shack. survivors shouldnt have areas like that all over the map. you also shouldnt be able to run from pallet to pallet to pallet…its boring gameplay and part of the reason why killers tunnel.

while on tunneling, i have always said if people want tunneling to be nerfed that much then gens need to be slowed to allow killers time to spread hooks. the answer has been a unanimous NO. fair enough, another way to help killers not need to tunnel is to allow faster downs so they can keep up with the speed gens fly. these smaller loops do this. maybe its the start of the anti tunnel coming in?

slowing down gens would encourage me to not tunnel so thats 1 person lol. There have been many on the forums saying the same thing too. obviously people will still tunnel regardless thats why nerfs to tunneling like the first ptb would pretty much stop tunneling but they cant do that without allowing killers time to spread hooks or by giving killers the means to down faster. thats why the ptb never goes live.

you pretty much hit the nail on the head when you said its buying seconds before the inevitable down. Thats the way it has been designed, thats why killers are faster than survivors and even gain bloodlust, so eventually the killer will get the down. its just a matter when. killer needs to kill before gens get done so survivors have to buy time to allow gens to get done before the killer can kill. Survivors having safe areas where they have no fear of being downed knowing the killer will waste too much time simply shouldnt be a thing. Survivors should always feel threatened, at risk, its a horror game about a killer hunting them. The game lost its fear element as soon as survivors were able walk up to the killer, look them in the eye with very little risk because they know there are 3 strong loops next to them.

as for tunneliing, gen speeds being slowed down would reduce tunneling a little, wouldnt stop it completely because as long as its a viable option there are people that will do it even if they know they dont need to. But reducing the need to tunnel i believe would reduce the frequency, by how much, i couldnt say but as a tunneling killer, i wouldnt tunnel if i had more time so all of my opponents wouldnt see tunneling from me for a start. But im not saying nerf gen speeds and all killers will willingly suddenly stop tunneling, for that to happen hard nerfs are needed such as the first ptb so tunneling isnt an option.

personally i think its a good thing to move away from loops. for years the whole scooby doo chases have been a joke in dbd. it looks and feels pretty awful. its almost like dbd is a comedy horror or a spoof of a more serious game.

i would change it so the game as a whole is more stealth based, stealthy survivors and stealthy killers. maps should be reworked to allow more ability to lose line of sight instead of loops. so run, vault, drop a pallet, turn a corner or behind a wall, try to lose the killer. there are lockers to hide in but the focus seems to be on chases so anyone using a locker is usually called a rat or someone complaining someone else was hiding in a locker instead of taking chase. super fast killers should be nerfed right down.

This would not only solve the goofy loop chases but it would help with making gens more suspenseful. Part of the reason so many people hate doing gens and find them boring is because they know the killer is in chase, know the killer is occupied so there is no threat, no worry, just sit on gen while the killer gets looped. the chase will usually last until the survivor does down so the ones on the gens know they are safe until that happens. But if it was more stealth based and survivors had to lose the killer instead of looping, people on gens wouldnt know if the killer is looking for the survivor they were just chasing or if they gave up to look for someone else. being on gens would feel a little less safe. i loved playing against scratch mirror myers pre rework, the tension on gens, walking around not knowing if myers is watching me, way more fun than going against blight or ghoul or wesker or any speedy killer.

and thats why there is an issue. focusing on chase instead of objective. thats why people in soloq avoid gens, thats why people that actually concentrate on the objective gets scrutinised by the team and called a rat, thats why people get tunneled….they want to get chased? well the guy being tunneled is getting chased. Thats also why we have killers like ghoul, krasue and blight that are not fun to play against, chasing needs speed. looping in particular is part of the reason why killers camp and tunnel. killer hooks survivor, sees another one, chases them but the go-to mindset is loop so there find the nearest good loop and dont think about leading the chase away from the hooked survivor. It really is crazy how many pro loopers that can loop the killer for 2 or 3 gens loop the killer in front of the hook. The killer is thinking "keep the loop going, when that survivor gets unhooked im right here to get them". These issues are around because its a side effect of what players want in the game.

Well… I am confused…

We want Skill expression… but we want save pallets…

How do I show Skill if i am only in danger when i f*** up?

How safe must pallets be so that it is okay to go down there?

Btw some pallets are really bs but they aren´t there to get a 5 gen chase around them. Their 50/50 play is by greeding another round or hitting the stun. If you do you can run to the next tile or another round. If you don´t… well you get the hit.

the problem isn't just how bad the tiles are(which they are, no bs), but also the server connection hit registry, as a survivor u get so many undeserved hits, especially when its a blight, u dodge him he still hit u with his shoulder, there are so many bugs that were not fixed for years. and they added another layer of them on it, if u want us to have such terrible tiles, fix the servers and change how the dsync and hitboxes work since its obviously not working well, killer should never have priority on hits, it should be ping and server which decide it, and servers should have high quality net.

SkillDiff nothing else to see here, the killers on this vod made loads of mistakes, they dont have pain res pop etc to delay games, this is 1v1, ur forced to chase where the survivor go, u cannot compare this to 1v4, also if he verses players on his skill level it will be shown, the new fillers are terrible, i played killer recently and it was easy, the fact that ur strat is to predrop all those filled without even looping them, if u saw the vod which u send pause at 21:57, Rocket said there is no way as a killer that he would be runned at those tiles like that, which counters the point of ur vod, u basically lose ur argument by sending this vod lol.

they cut down pallets! killers aren't running around tiles anymore. that's a straight-up buff, and you're calling it suffer the most? you're just contradicting yourself.
