A thread for new players

Since we are going to get a ton of new players and currently are why not give advice for new players to help them understand and help them with the harsh start of this game.

My advice on how to start is with claudette and use self care to get better at skill checks and to heal yourself since new players dont always try to heal you. however spend most of your bloodpoints to lvl up david in order to unlock his teachable perk we're gunna live forever so you can get more bp. once you get wglf lvl up claudette for self care and try to get wglf as you lvl up her bloodweb and also get dead hard while your at it. after those two lvl up meg for sprint burst, adrenaline, and quick and quiet since those perks are just good for low and high rank.

lastly dont get frustrated at this game and quit early. the killer even without good perks and skill can be hard to play against if you dont know what your doing and you cant always count on your team. however once you get better and have better perks you will rank up and face better killers and get teamed with better survivors. if you face a camper let em camp and do gens and if your getting camped dont quit or give up because your just hurting the others players and giving the camper what he wants.

    My best advice?

    Dont fear the killer, face them, try to throw pallets in their head, try to run them around loops, the sooner you get comfortable with this, the better,

    to add to this dont be too greedy. dont go for saves right after the killer hooks a survivor and learn how many loops you can do before you get hit. also try to run with a plan, remember where pallets and windows are located. if your on a gen dont get off in the killers terror radius unless the killer gets too close or you know the killer is checking the gen.

    There is one it's called "Gameplay Guides" on the forum categories.
