Solo Survivor is in a really bad state right now, I agree. The common Killer tactics are unfun to play against and the matchmaking seems to be even worse now than before....

tbh I've seen many posts already of Survivors threatening to quit the game or switch over to Killer. The Killer queue times are also ridiculously high at the moment, which is new to me.

Thanks for all the comments, I'm relieved that some people feel the same but I'm sad for Billy. I think the map changes are the most impactful, it feels like the chainsaw is now (if at all) a tool to get from one side of the map to the other rather than something you use aggressively in a chase to put survivors down.…

Equal preparations is the key word. If a Killer brings strong add-ons and an ebony mori while the Survivors bring nothing at all, those players didn't prepare equally for the match. Surely there are certain loadout that are strong than others but as Killer, having to rely on them to become somewhat even with the Survivors…

I think that's where it comes down to in the end; A Killer is mostly powerless when facing a good team of Survivors while good Survivors are always be in the power role - regardless of the Killer. The Killers power lies in utilizing the most from the mistakes the Survivors made. If they make no mistake, you can't apply…

Those stats surely are meaningful, especially when we consider that every 2nd match includes a DC, AFK, suicider and/or game-throwers. They used to split the results up in ranks, are those informations also available? It would be really nice if we actually had full transparency over such statistics - with more relevant…

From a totally non-biased point of view, I would say that these players are either tired and burned out of playing normally (for whatever reason) or they simply enjoy to play that way. Being a "retired" Killer main, plenty of times I've thought; "GODDAMN, that was an annoying match! Next match I swear I will facecamp…

She got her first two kills before all the 5 gens were done - and that is a problem? The entitlement is real, lol! From a Killers point of view in regards of time management, the first two kills should happen latest after 3 gens were done. If the Survivors are at 1 gen left and still 3 alife, you're done as Killer.

Damn right, the ranking system is nothing but an indicator for the total playtime during a season. What always confused me is that the supposed "Skill Based Matchmaking" had no relation to the actual Ranking System - how does that make any sense? Not to mention that the Emblem System is contraproductive when we're talking…

Thanks to all of you for the quick replies!

LMFAO! You realize that looks are completly subjective? But a good topic actually, because despite what society is trying to tell you; the look of a person DOES matter when you're looking for that partner. It may not matter for everyone as much but it DOES matter, always, in 100% of cases. Just sometimes more or less. But…

PRETTY GOOD JOB SO FAR! The story repeats... Over and over again... They always manage to mess up more than previously and at that point that's actually quite hard to do,,, Well done BHVR! LOL the guy above. Not even a full week into it and they already are working to address it. That is a very fast response in my opinion.…

Pic or it didn't happen.

Rank either matters or it doesn't matter. If it SOMETIMES matter then that still means Rank matters. If you never get drunk but SOMETIMES you get drunk, that still means you get drunk... SOMETIMES. But whatever, I believe that you are too confused to be worthy to discuss this matter because as I said, you constantly…

Couldn't you make it sound a bit more biased? It sounds almost as if you're a Killer main!

Looks really good but one question, can we trade the Megs? I'm a bit tired of mine but she's a good girl I promise!

You realize that your whole post is a shitload of contradictions?

I always said Victory Cube was better than this Emblem farming simulator. I am very curious how exactly the current system works because I have absolutely no explanation for all the unfair matches we keep getting even after 50 matches. And yea, anyone saying that played on Rank 1 knows that it's a whole different level…

Rank 1 and Rank 20 can be in the same skill level but 4 hours vs 4000 hours CAN'T BE ON THE SAME SKILL LEVEL, yet they still get matched together several matches in a row. There's people here showing several different matches as low rank potato Killer against full red ranks and the other way around.

Oh, you're that classy "doesn't happen to me so it can't be true" guys. Tell me, Sherlock, how does the system work? How do you justify people ACTUALLY being new (people that don't know how to hit skill checks, don't know that Hillbilly chainsaw can oneshot,..) being matched against people with thousands of hours? One guy…

I have 2000 hours in this game and been playing 4 hours a day, every single match looks like this. No offense but you must be insane if you think people with 10-30 hours against 4000 hours Killers is justified. You can check my steam account before claiming such nonsense you have absolutely no idea of. Pathetic to excuse…

Tru3 is incredibly entertaining to me because he is almost constantly complaining about something to justify the outcome of a match - or at least that's what it feels like. It's actually hilarious and I am really not sure if he's serious or just playing his role as Tru3. It's pure entertaining to me and I don't even mean…

It's not a win-win situation at all. These discussions would be so much better if the people had at least some basic knowledge about the game. Hint: Killers "Chaser" Emblem. Rings a bell?

Top Tier Nurse btw. If that's top tier then I'm actually godlike.

Fun fact: Peanuts sounds like "Pii nuts"

What if something happens outside of my control (e.g. Internet outages)? Penalties will start off small enough that the occasional outage should not be noticeable; your timer should be gone by the time your Internet comes back on, for example. If you are losing connection frequently, please be sure to resolve your issue as…

High rank Killers are generally more skilled than high rank Survivors. It's a lot easier to rank up as Survivor and you can easily get boosted to red ranks while being an absolute potato at the game. High rank Killers don't just end up in high rank, they need the skill to reach that rank. High rank Survivor =/= High skill…

The only thing these stats show is that most Survivors play like potatoes, that's it. Every single Killer has above 60% kill rate even though some of them are actually hot garbage.

Allow me to ask a few question, do you consider disconnects as kills in that case? And additionally, do you consider matches with disconnects when you make such analysis? I know from the past (Freddy) that you in fact considered disconnects as kills and that you counted unfair matches with disconnects for such statistics -…

I'm sure he was talking about themselves and not about you *looks at 4 DS* :-)

Developers like to call this "improved performance" :-)

I don't want to play with console scrubs... PC MASTERRACE!

Nope, still can't see her... I think I'm going to start a new thread in the OT section; "Where's Blendette?" Funny idea, searching for claudis.

@Heroiq No, an infinite tier 3 Myers has an increased lunge range and an increased vaulting speed, two advantages of big impact when it comes to the loopability of a Killer. Looping a Plague while injured is a lot easier than looping an EW3 Myers while healthy, I hope you are aware of that.

So if I play with a friend and they forcefully pull the plug during the loading screen it won't cause an infinite loading screen? I don't think that's the case but I haven't had the chance to test it - but that's what I meant. If a player loses the connection to the host (for whatever reason) it causes an infinite loading…

@Hoodedfengm1n Thanks for that input, however the discussion was about how wise it is to use the fountains when infected. No harm meant but your statement made it look as if you support people that use fountains because "the Plague is still loopable even with the corrupted purge". While this might be true in some…

@Hoodedfengm1n Dude obviously there are places where you can still loop her, stop nitpicking. You did get the point or didn't you? I can loop a 115% Killer on any existing loop, all I need is a pallet or window. I can also loop a Nurse on certain maps in certain areas, that doesn't mean the Nurse is now all of a sudden…

@GhostrickSpecter You don't get it, do you? You can loop a 115% Killer for minutes relatively easy, depending on the map. You can't loop a Plague with corrupted purge for more than 20 seconds regardless if you're injured or healthy. It's almost as if you give The Clowns gas the ability to damage Survivors. Not to mention…

@Orion That's what I mean. People crash / disconnect / forcefully close the game and the result is that the game takes forever to load. It's not something caused by the game but by the players connecting.

@Tru3Lemon You're a gen? People hate gens, that explains a lot.

Another Killer that makes me go absolutely crazy as Survivor - not because of the Plague or her abilities but because of the way she showcases all the braindead players, just like the Legion does. Constantly being reminded of the incompetence of your teammates has got to be one of the most frustrating things in this game.

Survivors have a problem with a 4 minutes bleed out timer but they have no problem sitting on the hatch for 40 minutes. I'll never understand this logic.

Ban all of them. ...not just because it will purge the playerbase but because those players deserve to get banned. Over years now they've been constantly ruining the matches for other players - no need to have mercy with antisocial, egoistic scum.

@Karl_Childers If Survivors wanted quality gameplay they wouldn't be playing Survivor in first place.

@Bithard And you need to stop acting as if everyone plays like you do. I already aknowledged that many SWFs indeed just play for fun, would be nice if you now could aknowledge that many others do quite the opposite. Using SWFs like yours as a measurement of balance is simply false. You just said yourself, you don't tryhard…

@Theluckyboi Why should you not get punished for your altruism? You messed up, you get punished for that. Call it "Behaviours Selection".

@LCGaster No, that's good for YOU!

@Theluckyboi ...which is absolutely brilliant! You get punished for your altruism.

@LCGaster And I main my right hand.

@LCGaster I think you underestimate the power of an extra hit. What's the average hits a Killer lands in a trial? Would be interesting to see such stats. 4x MoM could result in a dead Survivor. (4 hits = injured and 3x downed) 4x MoM and 4x BT could result in 2 dead Survivors. 4 x MoM, 4x BT, 4x DS could result in 3 dead…
