It was fun while i enjoyed it, but it's becoming too much for my mental health so I'm removing it and never coming back to this game again. Better take notes devs before you unintentionally ruin your own game. Doesn't matter what the majority wants driving killer players away will always be 4x more damaging than losing a survivor player. But first before i make my points.

Uninstalling Toxic Game (GIF).gif

There's 3 few primary pain points why.

3) It's unfair just how badly killers have been treated when it comes to balancing and lost their horror identity (for me at least)

  • The game getting harder with constant changes that puts more restrictions on killers while been giving survivors a lot of base kit buffs lowering their skill and making it easier for escapes.
  • Survivors been given many basekit buffs over last 2 years or so reduced deep wounds, faster heals, base kit BT, increased hook time, the abandon feature they can easily use more perks and buffs to other perks to slam gens while killers get nerfs to gen regression.
    • 15 of free endurance and haste during the end game is absolutely stupid 90% of the time it's a free escape for them if the gates are opened so the best way to get around this is to hard slug and let them bleed out after all 5 gens are repaired or when there's only 1 gen left which no one wants or likes. If i could change it myself i would cut it down to 7 seconds during end game.
  • Survivors are free to abandon the instant they are all slugged to respect their time mean while the survivors can all stay at the gate and tea bag the killer and rub it in because ######### the killers time i guess.
    • Change i would make it to have a 15-20 second timer once the last survivor is downed then they can abandon. If the killer hooks someone the timer resets. If someone gets on their feet on their own the game resumes and to prevent killers from bypassing this from just dropping survivor over and over the wiggle bar locks at 99% and it must be the survivor players own manual input to wiggle free. 15-20 seconds is not that long they can be forced to stay in the game and take a proper lose if we're forcing the killer player to stay in a lost game.
  • Survivors have been getting more tools, perks, buffs to gen rush and it is encouraged to rush their objectives while the killer is shamed for rushing there's.
    • Fast Track shouldn't ever been buffed it is against what you devs want for the game. It's free permanent progress on gens for survivors failures, robs the killers efforts and hurts the killers that try to place nice 12 hooks the most. Since it's impossible to know if survivors have this perk the best way to combat this is to hard tunnel someone out which again no one wants or likes. Need to healthier gameplay and this isn't it.

2) The Devs are ignorance of what this game needs most and they've shown over the last few years just how clueless they are.

  • Multiple streams they've done were massive disappointments the special Walking Dead stream when Otz and everyone telling them how to save stream but they blew them off. Why everyone slugging on The Game so much we don't know? Literally everyone in chat spamming PALLETS. Changing the text of every perk to make them easier to read they're not being changed. Not even one minute later introduced special break which confuses everyone. Either they lied, don't even know how their own game works or was just bad communication there.
  • Bugs that been in the game for years. Wesker having an unintended bug since his release that's finally been fixed is no longer a bug that's become a feature that's been accepted by the player base and removing it isn't a bug fix but a nerf. It's bad communication on the devs part waiting years later to fix it without saying anything. They should've said it from the start. This isn't the first time it happened either I can't remember the other killer they did this to also but 'fix' a bug that the killer had for years. Oni?
  • Balancing changes that killers need (or any changes at all) either buffs, nerfs, QoL changes, reworks, or even important bug fixes take unacceptably long very few and very far in between.
    • Skull Merchant, Twins, Knight, Hound Master name a few that may as well be abandon after being left in a bad state for so long.
  • There's no real competition so the devs are free to be as lazy and sloppy as they want with their game.
    • Look at Pokemon and Over Watch as prime examples.
      • Pokemon have been mostly sloppy recycled games with the most recent Legends ZA having only a $13 million budget which is pennies to them. PalWorld and Aniimo are set to release this year and both look promising and amazing. If you don't have the most blood thirsty and aggressive lawyers like they do that means you better build a better game then. Winds and Waves so far looks a lot better than what they've been making recently.
      • Over Watch had over promised and failed to deliver making their game a lot worse. Marvel Rivals shows up and OW loses most of their player base to MR. So a year later OW was forced to improve their game.
      • But Dead by Daylight? it's still awful since there's no competition to force them to make the game better.
  • The game has been stale for years with no real changes made to it to improve survivor gameplay.
    • Not counting events the last thing we've had that really changed the game was breakable doors……. have you ever though about adding 1 or 2 blood generators in the maps, a destroyed gen that needs parts before it can be repaired or traps like the Alien map has 2 of them?
  • The tutorial is still trash.
    • Survivors are being taught the bare minimal and instead of teaching them how to do better and improve you're instead making changes that hand holds them and just makes it easier to play their role.

1) This is the biggest reason why I've quit is that the player base mostly survivors are so ######### toxic it's unreal and the devs aren't doing enough to combat it.

  • DBD has the most toxic player base towards killers for just playing their role. Over anything and everything you can think of doesn't matter if I'm trying to play fair or not they complain, #########, every threat, every slur, go #########, jump off a cliff, get a rope. HOW THE ######### IS THIS ALRIGHT????
  • auto censoring some words during chat is the laziest and easiest option for the devs to do, it's also the easiest method for players to go bypass. There's a real lack of punishment for aggressive players and seems like nothing being done when i'm seeing this so many times.

You need to do better or you'll lose most of your PC killer players cause no one gonna deal with this #########. Thank God the console players don't have an end game chat. I will not be coming back to this game unless serious changes are made. Another player leaving the fog.

    To be honest I haven't play dbd because of cheaters and toxic players based moving on to other games mostly single-player games

  • I understand the anger. Hell im annoyed at certain parts of the game right now. But I always come back and they have fixed some things.( 100% boil over and old Dead Hard. NOED has a aura now and Buffed Thano on legion used to be hell) it feels rough now but a lot of players forget what it was or weren't here for it. 3 hook stages with a Bubba in the face for instadown off hook and 4 dead hards a game mixed with 4 DS. It isn't perfect but it has been worse

    Me it has something to do with how toxic this game is. You cant play in any other way without being screamed at.

    You Tunnel: Toxic and you deserve to hurt urself

    You Slug: Toxic

    You Camp: Toxic

    You Kill a Survivor in anyway: Toxic and ur bad at the game

    You bring a build or Perk a survivor hates: you are a not skill no life.

    You play a killer: no skill/ unearned Win

    Lose: GGZ and Uninstall

    Win: Uninstall

    Its obviously insane how a game can make a player feel so unwelcomed.

    The end game chat needs to go away. It's pointless and serves no positive experience 99% of the time.
