Here's the problem... LISTEN! *Navi's voice

You can't fleece your community for as much money if your honest and open about stuff.

Or lock super needed perks behind a paywall.

That's the thing I don't understand. New players are going to eventually rank up to the point where they habe to go through the same challenges the veterans have to go through. I figure at that point they'll learn from everyone else's example and just quit.

I know! Almost like a, tutorial, or a private mode with friends!

Oh wait, we HAVE those. They just dont reward experience for doing nothing!

Let's make a NEW mode: Bots, Blackjack, and Hookers.

Every skillcheck is a full circle of great, no killer, and only 2 gens that you cant mess up. That seems like it would please these people.

😆😆😂

It’s not about new players turning it on and being professionals.

A player shouldn’t have to watch videos to learn your game. DbD is a very complex game and it doesn’t help that half the community of great players prey on the less experienced for fun. That’s misery for them.

But yes, let’s have that classic boomer mentality of “I learned the hard way, so should you”.

BHVR is smart not listening to this community. Most of you torment new players to the point word-of-mouth gives the game a bad rep. I have friends that won’t touch this game because of a few hours of bad gameplay due to toxic killer or survivor tactics. Even when I taught them how to play and they’re half-decent they still rarely play because it’s almost like PTSD, nobody wants miserable gameplay after waiting in a lobby and then having to watch your team play or wait until the survivors are done trolling you to move on.

“bUt DC bAn sHuD b a TiNg”

You don't have to watch videos to learn the game.

You play the game to learn it.

And if somehow YOU CANT GRASP THE CONCEPT, you can look up a video, just as EVERY OTHER GAMER HAS in tough spots.

Classic boomer mentality? I'm 29.

It's not a boomer mentality of "I learned hard, so should you".

It's common sense of "people shouldnt have things handed to them when they're capable of learning themselves."

Dont be a mindless sheep and think you should just be able to be good without practice. It's not how the world works hon.

Not to mention DC bans SHOULD be a thing. If you cant handle the game, dont play it. If youre emotionally/mentally not capable of handling loss, then why ruin everyone else's game.

"Real life issues or net problems" fix that ######### before you get back on the game.

TAKE SOME ######### RESPONSIBILITY.

And if you cant learn, dont like, or cant seem to play and have fun, then play something else. Dont ######### on our sandwich because you dont like the taste.

There’s no true learnability in this game. Most of you complain about matchmaking but if the game isn’t fair towards casuals, you’ll never expand the player base.

“Boomer mentality” not directed personally towards you, but if it hurt then it must be true.

I’m 25, cause that matters? If you expect a person to hop into a game and have to spend countless hours to learn and actually continue to play, you’re wrong. There’s a plethora of games out there that you can jump right into for entertainment.

This game has nothing to do with common sense because the learning curve is HUGE.

If someone wants to quit a match, they should be allowed to. There are too many toxic players in this game that make it miserable for others and nobody should have to deal with it. We play games for enjoyment.

Talk about taking responsibility, the community needs to take responsibility for how they treat other players in the game and think on why the player base is so low and new players don’t come back.

Oh sorry, i forgot. People shouldn’t be so sensitive and if they are, “wE dOnT wAnT yOu hErE”, but wait, “BHVR FIX THE MATCHMAKING”

cant fix matchmaking with a dense player base.

I don’t recall asking anyone to take sides, so that’s irrelevant already.

And no, if a player wants to DC they can and should be able to. Simple as that. If you can’t handle someone DCing then you’re in the same position as that person DCing. Sometimes people have things come up, or don’t want to play against a certain group or with a group.

How do you think players would feel if there was a DC in COD where a team can spawn kill you?

Same as in DbD where an entire group of survivors can torment a killer or a killer can tunnel/camp a survivor.

How are you comparing this to a MOBA? Also R6 Siege does not have a learning curve. That game is as simple as hopping on COD.

I never said players leave because of the forums, they leave because of the toxic communities gameplay.

You’re devoid of independent thought. Any person with a brain would understand how important attracting a casual audience is to video games. Why do you think games like Chivalry died off? And probably soon to be Mordhau (couldn’t say cause I’ve not touched my PC in months).

I’m experienced DbD but it’s hard to get my casual gamer friends to play because you have to learn many tactics as survivor and be good at least looping to survive in most cases and as a killer, good luck to new players with no grasp on the system. You have 164 perks to choose a 4 slot combination from. It’s a complex system to new players.

Explain how you think it’s not? I had to play with friends that knew the game to learn, people I met on the game that have been playing. Then I played every day after work and the gym. It’s not a casual attractive game. That’s what BHVR needs to cater to, it’ll grow the player base thus helping matchmaking and separating ranks to where’s you precious entitled reds 1 can have all your toxic fun against each other and us reds 4 and up can enjoy the game.

I’m on Xbox as well. I have both. I play killer mostly and have no issues without the perk in question. In red rank.

”Toxicity” is spread through red-green. Never see it against Yellow.
