    What exactly are you asking? Is there a newfound lack of toxic survivor? Or are you having rough luck finding any survivors?

    Think they mean there is a lack of survivors on the forum and wondering what discord they all departed to

    While I'm not certain as to where they've gone my primary guess is that they might've just quit. I've seen several posts where survivor mains have mentioned going on strike, though I don't know how much of the talk are true.

    Thanks for the intel, it’s appreciated :)

    I stopped posting because I'm tired of my opinion being shot down on here & reddit, usually with "git gud" or "how does it feel now that the tables are turned, survivor scum????"

    I also uninstalled the game to make room for Overwatch, so.

    That’s why I asked. I want to be in a community where people just laugh and talk about the game and people don’t act like complete ######### to each other. Which is what this forum basically is. I swear everyone acts like all survivors are rank 1 and have had this game for 2yrs. It’s like that episode of South Park where they all start buying priuses and sniffing their own farts. They think that their opinion is the only one that matters and not other newer or less skilled players still learning. Like I didn’t buy the game, auric cells, and and all the dlcs too.

    I’m still here, trying to get Killers to see the other side of the story.

    For every victory, there must be another side that loses.

    I started playing on the 2nd anniversary July 7 and I hit rank 1 on July 27 with just 1 hand (using a logitech g600), solo q'd the whole way, and a couple top tier perks (Self Care, Urban Evasion) with no intentional DC's/cheats or using keys/flashlights. So for survivors to complain about the new patch is absurd. From what I've noticed it has toned down SWF a good amount but for us solo q'ers it has helped a lot.

    That’s really great that you’re a natural at the game! Here’s cold hard facts though only 3.8% of people that play have made rank 1 survivor. This is global and up to date.

    I don’t even mind that patch that much. It’s this community. They act like just bc it doesn’t affect their gameplay it hasn’t affected others. Then are bullying people because they have an opinion. I’m still hearing about the Freddy nerf man. I wasn’t around for it but like #########. All I know is I paid for the game, I’ve had it for two months. I have basic knowledge, but I’m still learning. It’s ######### rude to tell people that their opinions don’t matter Bc you’re rank 1 , and blah blah blah.

    If you do find it you should share it with those of us who are left. I would also love to have one conversation with other people who play survivors that doesn't get interrupted by someone being a jag.

    Such is balance. Survivor game play has become harder and for good reason the game has for the longest time dramatically favored survivor players. As a result survivors are struggling because the old tricks that bailed you out no longer work. More focus need to be put on losing killers and playing stealthy as exhaustion no longer is recharging during chase. Killer mechanics cannot be simply circumvented with the basic meta perks. Now unlike most killers heres some advice to adapt to this new meta.

    First the chase you need to lose the killer stop trying to run em around the map they will catch up and they will come down hard on you. Use sprint burst lithe etc to get distance and hide somewhere using perks like urban evasion to walk around the killers quick and quiets or come dance with me will help a lot in this category but i recommend you experiment with these perks.

    Next is saves these must be conducted carefully a killer will camp if they can. Always assume this never think a save is free. Make sure you have vision of the killer and know hes far enough away to guarantee a proper save. Never assume a killers gonna play nice. The minute things look bad for a killer they might start hard camping if this occurs start blasting through these gens so they de-pip and learn their lesson never try to save a friend from a face camping killer 9 times out of 10 you will end up giving him more kills. leave and de pip his ass so you won't have to play with him again.

    Perks that i think will form the new meta will be self care, lithe , iron will and urban evasion. These perks will get you much farther then ds and sprint burst due to the recent changes urban is mostly here because the hag is a huge threat and having urban massively helps. take iron will to allow you to juke nurses as they rely heavily on your grunts of pain. Self care is good in general and is good for the rare Freddy.now lithe and sprint burst are both pretty good i prefer lithe because i can control when it goes of and when i want the chase to end as once i burn lithe i usually want to end the chase then and their.

    I get that these changes are pretty rough for survivor's who are used to the old meta but for once survivor's are seeing variance in the higher ranks and that's important as for the longest time it was just billy, nurse and the rare huntress.

    Summer anyone?
    Can't believe that no one even considered that they might be on holidays and/or at the swimming pool.
