Many updates are driven by community outcry Exactly this. Huntress got her buffs because she has an abysmally low kill rate (55% to this day) and people lost their marbles about it. They didn’t make her overpowered even remotely and people made posts calling for it to be reverted when they never played against it or played…
-
I meant to say first lol
-
I said the Killer was trash and way too weak and I got absolutely flamed in my comment section and told it was a skill issue lmao.
-
I wasn’t trying to draw any conclusions like that at all. The 4% just needs to go. Plain and simple. No reason for it to stay. I only brought up the removal of hook grabs because people will cry about them removing the fun but they have already removed several fun things for killers. So it should be totally fine to remove…
-
It’s nice to have a new power, that isn’t just an old power. cough cough it’s literally a worse deathslinger cough cough
-
Picking the guide class almost makes it impossible to lose. You get hooked once and each time a Gen pops after that you get a BNP per survivor nearby when a Gen pops I’ll get hooked early and go from Gen to Gen for the last 10-15% and instantly pop them then go to the next and instantly pop that one and so on. The most I…

Pretty much all of them do! Anna is the only killer who has a first name but no Surname given. At least until I marry her!😩
-
No that’s Taurie who is Scottish. I was talking about The Huntress! My Pookie Bear😭
-
I love voice lines personally.I would really love if Anna got a few sparse voice lines. Russian is such a beautiful and dark language and it would be really cool to hear her say some things.
-
It’s almost like it can be more than one reason! And a combination of them at that.
-
Unhook attempts need to go. They got rid of hook grabs.
-
I literally just played a much like this after you left. 10 straight minutes with 1 gen left and me and 1 other person where the only ones trying to work on them. It was ridiculous lol
-
Is there anything for killers in 2v8 that is genuinely overturned? I don’t think there is a single thing that’s overturned considering how easy it is for survivors to win.
-
That’s not even remotely true. It’s region based. It’s always a killer bonus for 7pm to 8am and a survivor bonus the rest of the time. There is no lack of survivors trust me.
-
That is quite possibly the weakest possible combination in 2v8. Of the matches I lost as a Huntress main it was almost always with a Deathslinger teammate
-
Nope! I just checked unfortunately😭 They released some first skins that came out 6 months ago and the Knight rift outfit. Last time they did this it was Singularities rift which was also 6 months old at the time. It seems like it will probably never release again honestly. That sucks😔
-
Idk what to believe honestly, people gaslight me all the time with that logic to explain why Huntress has such low kill rates. Even though she has lots kill rates at general AND high MMR which disproves that. But Nurse has high kill rates at high MMR so I chalked it up to newbs.
-
As weird as this sounds I would put mediocre above average. If you put 50 hours into Nurse you are going to be pretty solid but not great but since it’s Nurse it doesn’t matter and you will clap survivors anyways. Nurse general MMR rate is so low because of the people who play her 5-10 times and get wiped out and then…
-
I’ve still been waiting on Nightowl Huntress and it’s been over 2 years!😭😭😭
-
Definitely needs more nerfs honestly. She’s gotten many perks nerfed and has no doubt prevented countless perks from ever making it past the concept phase. On top of keeping a lot of mediocre perks awful because if they were stronger they would be insane on her. Even a mediocre Nurse player can 4k almost every game and A…
-
Play a weak killer so you don’t feel as pressured to win or be good Play a simple one that’s not very complex Trapper is the least complex in 2v8 Do something else while you are waiting for a match, I like to animate in blender Realistically the more you play the less you’ll be anxious. 2v8 can actually be more stressful…
-
I would personally love it if they made this game mode permanent and put 2-3 bots in each lobby. Make it seem like a real person though with a fake name and everything. Maybe buff survivors a little bit to counter bots being so garbage but it would be fun.
-
Wraith is quite weak honestly
-
Skill issue honestly. We did it 4 times yesterday. Literally the easiest thing to counter.
-
Pallet saves are ABYSMALLY easy to get as long as you are close. Timing them is a joke and almost impossible to miss. Maybe miss 1 out of 50-100 Sabos I agree with Flashy’s- Again abysmally easy to hit and require zero skill ever since they made the timing impossible to fail. Flashbangs literally have zero counter at all…
-
You should never just play one side. I fully believe if you only play one side then you have absolutely no room to make any remarks on balance in this game. Sometimes I’ll complain about a survivor perk and call it “brain dead and ez mode” and then I switch to survivor and realize that that’s not actually the case and I…
-
A perk that lets you rebuild a pallet should require you to pop a full generator by yourself to gain the ability to use it AND 30 seconds to build it. 4 Shack pallets a game is NOT fair.
-
You’re completely missing the point entirely so let me run it back for you. The Anti FACE Camp meter is to prevent FACE camping. The Devs have stated numerous times they think camping is a valid and fair strategy and are 100% fine with it. Removing the ability to face camp gives survivors a slightly better chance to get…
-
Must be very new survivors. 2 separate chases equals two separate downs which equals to separate people going for two separate unhooks which equals half the team not on gens. The double team playstyle is the easiest to beat far and away. And a Billy working on his own is the biggest threat to survivors, no need for double…
-
Not even remotely comparable.2 killers who team up is an awful idea that leads to a loss for the killers almost every time. Doubling up on one survivor costs huge Gen and map pressure. I don’t think I ever seen a tag team win once actually
-
The fact that it’s possible to pop a Gen in less then 10 seconds at all no matter the circumstances is problematic and needs to be addressed. I don’t care if it’s cherry picked or not, it should be possible. Plain and simple.
-
So you want Otzdarva perma banned? Dope! Sounds like a great idea! He uses a VPN ever since he got DDosed. Oh and Scott. Those are the ones I know at least.
-
I live close to a server and pay $110 a month for the fastest internet and I till hit over 90 sometimes although it’s rare.
-
Again an immediate lawsuit that indefinitely paused new content never gave it the chance to spike up from new releases. If DBD got sued for some reason and couldn’t win it would’ve went out the same way. Nobody and I mean almost NOBODY stopped playing because the killer was too strong. They stopped because it got…
-
Almost sounds just lie DBD doesn’t it? Peaks with new content and plummets afterwards. They had a loyal fan base who loved it. Simple.
-
That ability will be coming to 1v4 soon I’m sure. If I had to guess it’ll end up having a 90% pick rate.
-
The point is he won almost all the time easily with very few escapes on average and it was a beloved game by all. A killer that was a real unstoppable (mostly lol) force and survivors were actual survivors doing anything they could to try and survive. But in this game we have people incessantly crying because they can’t…
-
Not even close to accurate. It shut down because of a lawsuit over the very messy licensing rights to Jason. The game was well loved and the closest DBD ever had to real competition. Almost everyone loved that game with overwhelmingly positive reviews. Nobody cared that Jason was so strong because that’s how the game was…
-
Huntress definitely doesn’t need another nerf. They already nerfed her cooldown by making it 20% longer this time around. Nurse doesn’t need a nerf either, she is actually pretty bad in 2v8 honestly.
-
Knowing Bhvrs coding? That’s not going to happen either lol. It would have to be for all platforms or none. I mean they can’t even make a small change to a killer without nuking half the game.
-
Never gonna happen. They tried to buff Huntress because ranged killers are awful on console but people cried and got her minuscule buff reverted. Apparently since 1% of people play her on PC that means she can never be buffed ever again. Same goes with Blight. PC Blights are crazy so you will never see a buff for him ever…
-
Hooked On You Huntress and Spirit! Slaying on the beach!
-
My bad I forgot you were talking about 2v8 lol I forgot the tiles are radically different in 2v8 since they’re so many. But In 1v4 you have to break 85-95% of pallets. That also explains why she seems much stronger in 2v8 as well.
-
This is terrible logic for multiple reason. Who knows how many free kills the killers get from Dcs and throwing on hook, for all we know the real kill rate might be 40% if survivors couldn’t DC or throw on hook. Don’t even get me started on perks/ individual player skill. Devs want killers to have a little over 2 kills on…
-
I’m at work rn but I’m sure it’ll be the exact same way tomorrow, so I’ll do it then.
-
Side tangent. I’d like to point out Huntress can not ignore pallets, I’m not sure why people think she does. Maybe 5 to 10% can be ignored. A 110 killer that moves at 77% when holding and an audible ready up sound has to deal with almost every single pallet like the rest because if you lose the 50/50 and the survivor…
-
Yup it’s called different people with different opinions!
-
That’s a good point I never thought about, not to mention the second add on could also affect the kill rates of the other. Seeing an add on pick rate list would be cool tho.
-
I never ran into slugging that much in the first interaction because caging was so fast. There was almost no reason not to cage unless you were playing Huntress. 2v8 is fast paced for sure but hooking is so slow and clunky, you literally pause for an entire second after picking up and then hook. Even with the changes there…
-
It certainly is. It’s region based AND time based. It’s usually a killer bonus early in the morning and late at night and a survivor bonus throughout the day. You can’t go off of those bonuses at all unless you know generally a pattern of when normal bonuses are for each side. Killers only aren’t playing that much…
