One time in pre-game chat it thought that Distortion was a curse. Once. I was telling people all day that I had Distortion and that if they see me bolt that probably means the Killer is aware of them as well. It only censored it in a single chat that day. What type of slur is only occasionally a slur?
-
Yes. Even though I have enjoyed the game, betrayal of trust like this is waaaay over the line. If I had an incredibly fufilling real-life relationship, but it ended in me getting stabbed, memories of good times would not in any way halt my decision to get a restraining order.

Dear potential employer, I feel as if I would fit in perfectly with your current workforce, as I have the following qualifications: I have the burnt Huntress skin in Dead By Daylight, several Unusuals in Team Fortress 2, and a Blue Partyhat in Runescape. I will have a strong motivation to get other workers fired, since as…

Also, Valtiel never takes an aggressive action against Heather, and actually has a stake in her physical well being. The closest he gets is dragging away her body if something else kills her, but that ties back into the previous point.

Can I get original Claire? Please?

In my ideal world, Legion's chase music would just be https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=atKUCxXanXA With the first couple seconds looping for proximity, and the WEEEEEEEELLLLL serving as the noticed notification.

Double post.

Your argument that a very good Survivor should be able to solo a very bad Killer for an entire game has no point, because the game devs have made it very clear that they never want a Survivor and Killer with that gap of skill in the same game. It's akin to arguing that, if Dwight gets a shotgun in the next patch, it should…
-
The whole point of MMR was to make such a disparity in skill impossible. The scenario you are describing has been considered something that should not exist in a normal game by the devs.
-
Man, imagine an AoE that gives everyone within the radius Dead Hard, and only one person on the team has to dedicate a perk slot to do it. If you listen closely, you can already hear the screams.
-
Honestly, what worries me about these perks are that I cannot think of an effect or benefit which could simultaneously make one worth a Survivor perk slot and not make it fresh hell for the Killer. Boon perks have to compete with the current Survivor meta perks, while somehow not being as impactful as any of them to the…
-
Ah, yes, that is the thing I love the most playing Killer. Farming bloodwebs for specific addons to make them decent.
-
Just now? I remember a lot of talk about nerfing Freddy because he was "Boring". Not overpowered per se -- no one seemed really able to point out much bad about him besides the Forever Freddy addon combo -- just that he was "Boring". Then he got some numbers tuned down, and he was the same except a little less capable, and…
-
So if a Hex Totem is converted into a Boon Totem, and the Killer cleanses the Boon Totem, the former Hex Totem turns onto a Dull Totem that the Survivors could re-bless if they wanted?
-
Jared Leto's Joker is already in the game. He throws kunai.
-
But... my Survivor goes up against clearly new Killers all the time in this system. Like, doesn't have every perk slot unlocked yet Killers. Ghostface running Monstrous Shrine Killers. Doesn't-know-yet-how-far-a-lunge-covers Killers. I'm not the best Survivor by a long shot, but I'm competent, which means that I should be…

The current tutorial matches are basically training mode in a Street Fighter game, but you can only play as Ryu. And your opponent is always Ken. And you can't see the moves list. And special attacks are disabled. What I'm getting at is it isn't very useful, apologies if I have been too subtle.
-
I usually have two go-to's: When he's about to carry another Survivor. I.E., when the Survivor has just been knocked down and is about to be picked up. Either he gets the alert right when he starts the pickup animation and will have even less time to hook and teleport, or he'll have to decide if stopping me is worth…
-
Most everything given to Trapper here are no brainers honestly, but that Trapper Sack addon looks really, really bad. Like, throwing the game even worse then the addons which give you extra BP to throw the game bad. Having all your options at the start means nothing if you cut the potential of those options that severely.…

Man who has not watched thing holds up thing as evidence, because he's vaguely sure it says something he likes. More at 11.

Premonition lets you know that you are looking at the Killer Spine Chill lets you know that the Killer is looking at you. If a killer is being looped near me as I work on a gen, but I don't have direct line of sight with him and the runner, I already know that he's over there. What I don't know with Premonition is if he's…
-
One guy got really mad at me for running a "meta tryhard build" It was Doc with Distressing, Unnerving Presence, BBQ and Pop. Addons were brown Order and Calm. You could certainly call that setup many things, but never would one of them be "Meta".
-
To this day, I have no idea why remake Claire in general is so different from original Claire in design. Leon got to stay the exact same, why did Claire have to trade out her... well, everything?
-
Bruh, it was literally explained that this was an extension of a joke where Quentin's goblin face got him mistaken for a killer.
-
A: "I really hate going against specific killers." B: "I really hate going against specific survivors." A: "Get gud baby"
-
A BBQ/WGLF slot, you mean. As god intended.
-
People honestly underrate how useful Spine Chill's super simple function can be, even with other players promoting it. The thing's a permanent fixture in my Survivor loadout. I know if a Killer is suspicious of a gen we're working on before anyone else, I know he's definitely on his way if it stays on for a few seconds…
-
You know what I find less fun then playing against my least favorite killers by orders of magnitude? Waiting for another match to be found, after someone decides that this match isn't up to his standards and sabotages it for everyone else. And you know what I find more unfair then going against the most unfair killers?…
-
Now you get to explain to the class why you think an object which is picked up and used as an item, reacts to item perks, and is classified as an item by both the inventory and score system if you leave a match with it is not an item.
-
Here I thought I had CS:GO just to get a weapon skin for the TF2 Sniper, turns out I'm so good at DBD I was preparing even before I thought about playing it. We truly are the real gamers.
-
Edit: Forums ate my first post, then put it back in later.
-
Correction: Most games for those super-tryhards wouldn't be fun. If the optimal way to ascend to the highest tier and stay there lording over the common man is found, and the system works as it should, then the people who exploit that should eventually "Ascend" from normally played games and have matches populated by…
-
While I can see most of this, giving a box holder the job to cleanse totems would be the absolute worst idea. Totems have to be cleansed all in one go - no progress is saved if you're interrupted - and the box holder is going to get interrupted by hooks nonstop.
-
It's also a rather baffling departure from how he works in the source material, in contrast to everything else for him being so lovingly designed. Like, I admit I haven't seen the last few Hellraiser movies, but I've seen most of them. And at no point does a Cenobite catch someone in chains, then walk into the chains…
-
If you're actually behind him, then that's a chain hunt chain hitting you and not the ones he personally summons unless it's spawning ahead of him and then flying back behind him. Pinhead has to be looking at the portal he creates for chains due to the mechanics of placing them.
-
I am a bit... confused by the argument that a Cenobite has it's sexuality stripped from them. Are these the same people that giggled at "I came" under the assumption that a religiously passionate sense freak created by Clive Barker was making that double entendre on accident? The Cenobites as a whole "Species" -- much like…
-
Yes there is, it's already built into the game. You can flag any person post-match for unsportsmanlike conduct or hate speech, and even get a little text box to elaborate on the details. Single flags of this sort are not likely to be acted upon, but multiple reports of a similar nature can and do get people banned even if…
-
That is also an argument against text chat. Or visible names. Or, well, any interaction whatsoever. At least with in-game voice chat, other Survivors can re-evaluate their priorities with assisting a toxic player on the fly and let things sort themselves out naturally. And let's not act like removing all dialogue fixes…
-
I would be more worried about the Nightmare on Elm Street content, honestly. The only other game which has had Freddy Krueger as a guest character under the must-be-reboot-Freddy stipulation (Mortal Kombat 9) has been intentionally discontinued to purchase, and when it came time for DBD to add another Wes Craven icon they…
-
One thing to note: A lot of those franchises in the OP do not really have a central, easily recognizable antagonist to build an update around. I personally love Amnesia and Dead Space, but you can't possibly tell me that you want an update where an Amnesia grunt or a Dead Space Slasher are the stars of the show. Hell, it'd…
-
That may be an artifact from older versions of the game where there were more common offerings which just slightly altered probability in the map's favor. Those were taken out because they seemed pointless, leaving in just the strongest versions which are either a guarantee if not rivaled or pretty damn close to it.
-
The first SAW came out in 2004. The franchise is younger than American Psycho (While the movie was 2000, it's based on a 1991 novel) My Bloody Valentine (Original in 1981), and *possibly* Hollow Man, if you take it as a re-imagining of The Invisible Man from 1897.
-
Honestly, I think it'd be a neat little twist to have a survivor who's just as bad as the killers but is forced to cooperate with them because the Entity passed 'em over. Especially if we can get skinless Frank. Imagine working on a gen with a blood dripping gristle ghoul, all the while he's grumbling under his breath…
-
The same guy gives you No Mither, which is... well, No Mither. In a package snapshot I'd reason that two really good perks alongside one actively debilitating one is fair enough compared to Bubba's one must have and two really nice specific-build perks, and balancing for purchased characters to have strictly superior perks…
-
I'm all for this specifically for WGLF, because it'd also mean that the guy incentivized to make sure hook saves go smoothly isn't as likely to accidentally complicate things for everyone by dropping everything and rushing over when someone closer has it already under control.
-
Got curious and checked the wiki, it's 10 to be exact. Demo is an alien, Legion is Canadian (Counting as either 1 or four entries in this list, depending on how you look at it) Plague is Babylonian, Spirit is Japanese, Huntress is Russian, and both Hag and Wraith are native African. Wraith moved to America for a bit before…
-
This is why I wasn't too happy at the "Beating the Rift refunds your investment" bit. Because that actually means "We are going to do everything in our earthly power to make sure you cannot beat this".
-
Assuming that the Entity would be willing to interfere so quickly and decisively when killers deviate from it's preferred feeding method, it'd probably just outright kill Myers considering he has builds to ignore hooks entirely and murder everyone for himself.
-
If you see them get in, odds are you can just pull them out before Head On readies itself since it can't be used instantly. I can't tell you how many times while leveling Jane I was yoinked the moment before I could do anything because the Killer didn't hesitate, and how many times I've seen a Killer eat a Head On they…
-
Short answer: No Long answer: Nooooooooooooo Old Freddy was the worst to play as and against. Playing Freddy felt bad, because Survivors could essentially turn him off at will. Playing against Freddy felt bad, because it was just a genuine slog. Imagine creating a character who has permanent wallhacks in a hunting game but…
