But everyone was so sure it'd be next week. No way it could be this week right?
😁 Looking forward to it.

Mario very sad, @Peanits Any word about the switch version or will it come out at a later date?

Well if the Nurse changes go through I'm done.
This game isn't even a game half the time it's just a frustration simulator mixed with a teabag sim.
1 -
Yes!!!!! Soooo excited!!!!
0 -
Of course they're going through!
And it's a good thing for the game, you know what else is going through? No more instant healing which is also needed.
Nurse is still the strongest killer in the game.
7 -
Right? If you play base Nurse and are good with her you won't even notice the changes...
Blink 2 times and miss a swing you have both of your blinks back already...
6 -
Doesn't matter if she's the strongest or weakest, she isn't FUN to play with the changes.
Constant micromanaging, constantly getting punished for leaving 0.1 seconds left on the charge, the constant sound, the extra toxic survivors teabagging you because you're just walking towards them.
Not.
Fun.

Damn, I have still to many insta heals and puddings on Nurse left!! Ooof, rushing now!

nice!
cant wait for it :D

Oh no, being punished for missing?
It's almost like you shouldn't be able to constantly miss and suffer no repercussions.
Additionally, getting upset at teabagging is the most ridiculous thing ever, it has 0 affect on the game.
11 -
You get punished for successful hits too. Pretty much you get punished for using your power in general now. That is bad design.
The whole "slight" change completely ######### with her ability. It seems small on paper but if you play with it daily, trust me it isn't a fun change. There are better ways to make her less powerful while also retaining her fun element.
1 -
Thats not the case at all. By the time you recover from the hit and fatigue both of your blinks are back.
There is no punishment the charge does nothing unless you're double blinking across the map. In a chase it isn't a factor.
7 -
That was a bug, remember? After a swing the cooldown would begin right after which was not intended. If you hit you get extra time to wait once it's bug free.
And trust me, it might FEEL like they're back right away but if you need to chain more than 3 blinks (2-2 for instance) you're ######### out of luck. Won't happen. Gotta stand there like a potato m1 killer while you wait to be Nurse.

Sorry bud, you're just going to have to adapt

Just throwing this in regarding Nurse:
Played vs a Nurse today who only had BBQ. No other Perks, no Add Ons. Got a 4K with 2 Gens left. Yeah, totally fine, when a Killer can just use his Double-BP Perk, while other Killers struggle with the decision which 4 Perks they want to use...
Regarding the Update:
Really happy about it, still hyped for the Archives and the Rift.
3 -
No, I'm just going to leave. It's not a big spectale or anything but I can't play this game anymore if the only killer who's got an answer is not going to have it anymore.
If I want to play frustration sim I'll boot up DbD again but I play games to have FUN not stress sweat for 4 minutes while survivors be toxic and abuse the game.
0 -
Unable to adapt then. Got it.
2 -
Every survivor that's ever complained about a killer is told to git gud and adapt. I do feel for you. But Nurse was broken.
1 -
Well, the end date of the event is 9th I guess?
0 -
I can 4k 5 gen with Myers. Best nerf him next.
1 -
tbh, the event is only for special looking gens + bloodweb offerings (ghost flashlights, spooky medkits) I think it'll end the 13th tbh but we shall see.
0 -
Every killer can do this, it all depends on who you play against and how the match plays out, the difference is the nurse can do this rather consistently.
2 -
Can't wait to play this BUG FREE patch hahaha ;)
1 -
Defined consistently. I've been 4king with Pig in red ranks for a week now. No NOED, Ruin, or addons. Should we nerf her again?
Scottjund had a long running winning streak with Leatherface. Should we nerf Bubba too?
0 -
So you are saying you won't play unless you can easily win with no effort? Millennials
3 -
Still doesn't justify making the game feel of the killer worse by putting two different types of cooldowns in parallel. They could have made her blink lunge smaller or her fatigue longer, if they wanted to tweak her basekit. There is a reason why people compare her change with Legion, even though even after the change she is much stronger. Sometimes general game feel is important too. Just look at survivors complaining about Spirit or old Legion more than Nurse, because power/strength of a killer isn't everything. The game feel is important too.
0 -
I need to define consistently? With your statement you've just proved the "nerfs" to pig didn't affect her at all if you're a good enough player, gg.
Scott indeed did have a 30+ 4K run with leatherface, but as you'll see on the forums everyone cries about how weak he is, it's almost as if when you're a good player you can do well regardless of what killer you play.

Glad you agree the changes to Nurse base kit are unwarranted.
0 -
Actually I'm a millennial myself 🙃 just one that hates their generation.
0 -
I'm glad that nothing that I've said indicates that, what it does indicate is that people on the forums like to blow nerfs out of the water and act as if they somehow get decimated.
good nurses don't care about the changes, bad players do, simple.
2 -
Please do leave! No one would miss you! The nurse changes absolutely needed to happen and I will never feel bad about anyone who needed the use the op nurse as a crutch killer. If you can't play the new nurse nor any other killer, it's a happy goodbye from me
1 -
You're talking to a good Nurse.
0 -
ok? So you'll be fine regardless of the changes... unless you're not actually a good nurse and only rely on how over powered she is.
got it.
3 -
Against good survivors the base kit changes are detrimental. It will become more apparent on maps like Lery's.
I always loved the agruments of a good x killer will be fine while ignoring the good x killer telling you its not.
Dedicated servers aren't helping Nurse much anyways. The rubberbanding and blink timing variations are hurting her. The changes tomorrow will just make it worse.
1 -
This statement is fundamentally wrong.
Let me tell you why.
1.) It isn't a free win with Nurse. I don't know how many times I can type this but if you play Nurse they don't just fall on the ground and you get hooks. You have to use her skillfully and read, position, and time your swings + blinks right or you are going to miss and going to extend the chase.
2.) She is literally the only killer I can play where 2 gens aren't done in the first minute of the game. Why? Well simply put she's actually a threat and she can actually get to the gens faster than it takes to walk across the map. Both of these things are going to suffer with the change.
So yeah. I'm not going to try and play this game when every single match ends up being the same toxic genrush because that's what the gameplay has (de)evolved into.

Pant-less Myers here we come baby! 😍

Senzu, I think he's trying to say that the base changes were not not need, and that the add-ons were the problem. 🤗
I only seen one complaint about base Nurse, and countless complaints about her add-ons making her OP (as well as reducing her skill cap).
2 -
I think you should master her again with the nerf, and kill every single survivors in your path. After that, let's see if people still cry for further nerf ^^
0 -
There is a reason they have to get 5 gens done to win. I go into each game and know that I can't stop a couple from being popped. I don't go in there thinking that if I can't get an instant hook then it's not worth playing. Patrol the remaining gens properly and it will be a good match.
