  • This problem initially began for me on the Xbox One X. It now continues across three attempts to uninstall and reinstall on my Xbox Series X. Sigh.
  • New update, no new fix. Huzzah.
  • I'm still having this issue as well. What I've noticed is that even though the problem persists, when I load back in the game does properly show where I'm at for ranked. So it appears my server details are still getting updated even if my Grade Progress Error prevents me from being able to actually see that progress. What…
  • Yeah, it's been a thing for me since I started playing this game. It's just been happening a lot more lately than it used to. It was something I would have to deal with every time I played but usually after one or maybe two restarts I'd be good for a bit. This time, I've had episodes where even after 5 matches and 5…
  • This right here. There are games (I'm Rank 2 Killer btw) where I absolutely steam roll a team because I was able to find survivors quickly at the start, distributed a few hits so multiple survivors are injured, and chased them off of gens. It turns out, if you don't just mindlessly pursue survivors into jungle gyms or…
  • This right here. I feel what some people think is bullying others think is just gameplay. I want to know what you mean by "bullying", original poster.
  • This doesn't have to be a "one extreme against the other" debate. Most of us Killer Mains don't actually have to camp or hard tunnel to win. Aiming to proximity camp a hook so you can go for the immediate down and rehook isn't fun for the survivor and its not actually a good winning strategy as the killer. BUT The way the…
  • I forgot to mention, I only managed three total hooks as the group was obviously communicating and chose to head for that loop or one of the construction crane's every chase. EVERY chase. I had to score amazing hatchets in order to get the few downs I managed.
  • I found a way to squeeze it into Freddy's build but not too many others yet. It's not like, AAHMAZING, but it certainly does work as a fun meme right now.
  • I have an addition to your list: Ranked Pips! Doing research on the Plague for some videos, I played exactly 25 matches with her and only gained a pip twice, and never two pips. Even when scoring over 30,000 points, I'd often just get the safety pip. One match where I got three of them, the last took Hatch, and I got Gold…
  • I honestly did not expect there to be vehemence so early in this thread! Haha, nice. Several killer players here have stated they feel Franklin's is a wasted perk slot. That's more or less what I was expecting but was curious to see if others were actually getting value from it. I did it just for fun and to counter a…
  • There is a fine line for "What's fun for me is totally okay for me to do in game." I get it, if teabagging at pallets and slapping folks on hooks is fun for you, that's one thing. That doesn't make the game toxic, imo. I usually just nod a little and resume the chase. Toxic is face camping at a hook, watching one die while…
  • I understand what the thread is about, kind sir. My statements are what they are.
  • A LOT of people stream this game, so to name them all would be impossible. My favorite game against a good streamer was against ThreatDesigns. He plays a fun Trapper and he let us all go after we all got hooked twice. A side note, I finally decided to add TTV to my name, BUT I took it down almost immediately. As a Killer…
  • I agree! As far as fear of losing the game goes, Billy terrifies me. In higher ranked play, a Billy means even if I do really really well, I'll still take the L a lot. For creep factor, The Clown. OMG, him popping around a corner sometimes makes me pee a little.
  • As a Killer Main, I can tell you that many survivors are REALLY proficient at eluding The Spirit in chases. For newer players, she does seem fairly impossible, however she has weaknesses that can be exploited and mindgamed around, as with all killers. As she cannot see you while in her "Haunting" ability, you can use…
  • Any chance of a response? Thank you in advance.
  • I see zero issue with preventing an unhooking if you see it coming, despite the vitriol that fills my inbox when I do so. If you run toward a hook in plain view and expect me not to chase, then please don't blame me for getting downed yourself.
  • I hear you there. Here on xbox those red ranks are unavoidable. After making rank 8, almost all my matches are against 5-1's. I am now rank 7 and just had a match against 2 rank 1's, a rank 3, and a rank 5. I got 4k with Billy but only because they weren't respecting me or my chosen killer(healing out in the open, trying…
  • I am having tons of fun! Thanks. :) Honestly, I didn't intend this to be a complaint about face-campers as much as an attempt to understand. From my perspective, the strategy was nixed from my playbook quickly when I found it kept me from getting bloodpoints and rank pips. I guess I sort of expected other killers to be in…
  • Where in my reply did I indicate I am rehooking someone quickly after jetting back over there? I use Mangled on many of my killers, so its quite common for me to see them still injured even after I've been over on the other side of the map tapping a genny.
  • You know, that makes a lot of sense. Maybe it will all disappear once I get my survivor rank up near my killer rank. Been lurking the forum for a couple of weeks and I haven't seen this exact thing pop up. This is a forum for asking questions like this of the community, is it not? Also, I wasn't stating that "face camp…
  • What a broad topic you are opening up here. Dead By Daylight survivor play is seen as different things by different people. When you don't play Killer the way they expect you to, you'll receive negative feedback after the match. Generally, it's a bad notion to spoil the fun (Iridescent Heads on Huntress for example, or…
  • Honestly, guys, I'd like to keep the conversation on the topic at hand, if possible.
  • Fair enough. I agree completely. But this topic is specifically about the face-camping. I am trying to determine why killers are using this tactic to such a degree. It can't be that they all honestly think its a good way to skill, rank, or blood point up? Because its not. The game doesn't reward it and in my past…
  • If we weren't partied up we might as well have been, given the perks and items available. But that's a point for a different day. SWF has no bearing on face-camping and doesn't explain why its a tactic so generally in use.
  • The issue I have with your first point there is that it isn't true for everyone. My friends and I have ZERO issues when notifications pop up. No lag, no problems. Been asking around and the game works well. I am sure you aren't lying about your issues but my point is, you shouldn't be making blanket statements that make it…
  • Oh man, I am super stoked this thread exists! I'd say 2 out of 3 matches I get at least one message on xbox from the survivors I just played against. Here are the best ones from recent encounters that all spawned decent conversations. "Please stop playing Huntress. I mean it. Give the rest of us a chance!" "GG...we were…
  • Interesting. I am experiencing none of these issues on Xbox and I stream this game daily. In fact, my viewers and I noticed a sharp increase in framerate after the last update. I have noticed, however, that after about 6-8 hours of running the game, it does start to suffer a little performance wise. The menus lag and my…
  • Legion is, frankly, a boring killer to play. His ineffectiveness aside, his kit lacks any of the pizzazz that so many others have. His loop is remarkably simple: Chase and deep wound everyone, try to down as many as you can as a basic attack melee killer while they heal, get looped in the process, rinse and repeat. At…
  • He is FAR from another Legion release situation. There is plenty of counterplay! Loop, genrush, and break that chain, baby.
