If a football game goes back and forth and is entertaining and decided by a single scoring drive be it touchdown or field goal is it not a good game even by the side that lost? It just means the game was well played and hard fought. I'm definitely not a gg after every game type of person but if it was a close and thrilling…

”apply pressure" and "spread pressure" are survivor main’s gaslighting terms. "boring” is survivor code speak for strong killer they want to see nerfed. You can spot survivor mains easily by the language they use. It's all gaslighting and code speak.
-
No point in posting anything like this here. The survivor mains are just going to gaslight you. Killers aren't allowed to express their frustration here brother. I'm sorry and I know how you feel. But just so you know you aren't crazy. Killer is absolutely at the weakest it has been since the very beginning. The only worse…

Amen! Hallelujah! DbD Mobile Artists: realistically animated hair, smoke, glitter, necklaces, key chains, body paint, tattoos, just absolutely beautiful detailing and NEW MORIS DbD Core Artists: Goofy, ugly, obnoxious backpacks. Seriously who on the core art team has this obsession with backpacks. The Backpacks have to…

The only males who consistently get skins are Dwight, Ace, and Felix. Basically every other male survivor gets a new skin every six months or every couple years if you are Jeff, Adam, or Jonah.
-
The changed it because they changed the scream sound trigger. This way it's is still technically 4 seconds as the first second is lost in the animation. I still only use it on Billy, Freddy, Sadako, and Blight though. As a they can actually use the information. Everyone else it's not much help on. Also I used it mainly for…

Right now I'm so deep in Texas Chainsaw Massacre I have no desire to touch Dead by Daylight. Five Nights at Freddy's is one of only three things I would come back for. The other 2 being new Silent Hill stuff or TCM dying off
-
And yet this forum will literally start attacking you if you say the game favors survivors and killers are in one of the worst spots they've been EVER. Outside of year one, this is the worst era for killer. And survivors will run in here screaming and crying that "NOOO, KILLER IS EZ NOW AND SURVIVOR US WEAL BECAUSE DEAD…
-
Big difference in things that were changed in the first couple of years where both the players and devs were learning and something that was in the game for half a decade and was fine.
-
The game is existed for 6 years without it just fine.
-
Same. I don't care what BHVR does to try and stop me. I will tunnel until chases are fair.
-
Chasing is the worst it's ever been for killer. Even with the buffs for chasing. A single chase can and typically will cost you either 2 or 3 gens. The maps are filled to the brim with pallets and windows. And thanks to WoO survivors know that exactly where the safe ones are and where resource are still up. This means most…
-
I hope so. I want to play Meatball. He looks cool and he has cool lore but I don't like feeling like I can't do anything. he feels so powerless.
-
Before they first nerfed Ruin. Old Ruin. Like True Ruin. Was the last time DbD was great. But the patch that nerfed the 2nd version of Ruin was even worse. Every patch that nerfed slowdown perks made Killer worse and worse to the point I'm forced to camp and tunnel because a chase will cost you gens and you'll end up with…
-
His challenges are stupid. The devs really though actually using his power was easier that it is. You be lucky to use overclock in a match period. You win the lottery if you manage to get a hit in overclock I don't know how the devs didn't see the strength of EMPs. Like did they test them at all? Or are they really so bad…
-
No. I learned my lesson with Singularity to NEVER EVER purchase a chapter where survivors are given a toy that completely removes the killer's power. Alien will be popular for about a week PURELY on the license ALONE. After that first week you will hardly ever see a Xeno because he will be just like Singularity where you…
-
I wanted to be a Meatball main but I gave up on him. Either his power stays as is and they completely remove EMPs because his power is strong but not so strong to justify EMPs. Because as is even if they don't use EMPs any survivors that reaches a loop will out run overclock as is. The other option is to keep EMPs but buff…
-
Still a worrying trend. Two killers back to back have given survivors total control of their power. And I'm still pretty sure Alien is gonna be weak on d survivors learn the best uses of the turrets
-
I play way more survivor
-
I have been playing since 2017
-
That's close o 50% which is good for solo q. Also if you watch JRM when he loses it's because he's goofing off. Also most losses in solo q have nothing to do with the killer's skill it's because solos don't do gens.
-
It's more than just the fast vaults though. Yes, the fast vaults are insane right now and survivors basically have invulnerability shields at windows. But there is oh so much more to it. The endurance spam is infuriating. There are way to many ways to proc endurance giving a bonus health state. Most survivors take a…
-
We aren't DCing. Dead by Daylight's servers are crashing. Have been for a day or two now.
-
Go watch JRM's recent video and your opinion might change. Also Otz was calling Meatball strong at first too. People initially were positive on Meatball. Time will tell. I could be wrong. But it looks bad imo for Alien. Especially when survivors get smarter with turret placement.
-
His power is fine. Singularity's power is fine. But both are gonna get forgotten and never played because the survivors have totalcl control over them. Survivors being given toys that totally abolish any power the killer has is too much. It's not fun. You will rarely see Alien just like you rarely see Meatball. A license…
-
I play both sides. And despite what people may think due to how hard I defend Killer and push back against the popular opinion about Killer being easy than ever (it's not, it's actually the weakest it's been in years) I actually play a lot more as survivor than Killer so much so I never get survivor dailies because I have…
-
Downing survivors was easier back then. At most they had Dead Hard. And Dead Hard is not the boogieman everyone made it out to be. I legitimately was never concerned whether or not a survivor had Dead Hard. Dead Hard could be baited most of the time. That's not me bragging but it's the truth. Dead Hard was not an issue for…
-
I enjoy her and I don't 3 gen with her on purpose. I have unintentionally ended up with a 3 gen with her. However I don't play her unless I have a daily for her because survivors just dc and I'm left playing against bots that are annoying to chase because they loop perfect and since the read your inputs they are not mind…
-
But I that's how horror movies work. DbD is intended to play out like a horror movie Most horror films have one survivor called the final girl. It's a trope.
-
Nonsense. You misunderstood. I don't "play for Sole Survivor". I run so when things go south I don't have to lose just because my solo q squad refused to do gens. I do gens, I take chases, I go for saves. I play for the 4 man escape. But it's not up to just me. But yeah if things look grim I start playing for me.
-
Is it? Or are most players to new to have played when killers were actually stronger. I think there are a lot of people here who never faced old ruin or NOED or true Face camping... I think there are a lot of players here who only started in the last year or two.
-
Survivor is easy though. If you run Sole Survivor in your build you will escape the majority of the time even when your terrible solo q teams bite it. Because you can open the gates so fast the killer can't stop you. Windows of Opportunity allows you to run safely very easily and if you know how to loop at all the killer…
-
As someone who played thousands of hours during those things. I would gladly rather have that era back over this current era. Survivors have 4 to 5 health states now, are significantly faster on gens due to perks, are faster in chase due to perks, and know exactly where is safe thanks to Windows. It was easier for me…
-
I absolutely disagree. Killer was significantly easier when basekit borrowed time didn't exist. When you could mori after first hook. When NOED had no aura. When Pop Goes the Weasel regressed by a base 25 instead of scaling. When Pain Res worked on every hook not just the first. When Ruin slowed gen repair. Any saying…
-
I actually will. Because I love Meatball boy and if you are as good with him as you claim to be I want to learn and play him. Because he's cool. So I hope you aren't lying and he's actually good.
-
Get in stream and stream us all some Meatball gameplay for a few hours. Prove it.
-
I really appreciate Calm Spirit users when playing killer. It saves my poor ears the pain of survivor screams on hooks. Those screams are physically painful to hear. It is becoming more and more useful as petks like Face the Darkness are added.
-
Nah he is bad though. The EMPs make him bad. Survivors like him because he's a plaything to them. They literally can't control whether he gets to use his power or not which is total BS.
-
I need to see you live stream about 10 matches in a row. I want to see you play Meatball.
-
Truth be told endurance as a whole needs to be removed. Other things than borrowed time. BT is fine the rest are too strong.
-
Agreed. I don't see the combo often but in the games where it's present is so oppressive and annoying. The game is unwinnable if they have coms and this combo.
-
Also, on top of being hard to play the reward for learning and playing hard him well is not worth the effort. Nurse and Blight are difficult to learn and play but the reward is very high. Wesker and Pyramid Head are stronger than Meatball and easier to use.
-
I love Meatball, his design is really cool. His voice lines are really cool. He is just really cool. But... I don't play him because he doesn't have a power. I mean he does have a power but you will never get to use it. Like using his power is literally just detrimental to you. Setting up your pods just wastes your time.…
-
Interesting. I think a better more fair thing would be to speed up repairs by 10%/15%/20% for 20/40/80 based on how many survivors are left. This would help with 3 genning as well as punish tunnel out a survivor as the bonus increases per dead survivor.
-
I am veteran player been playing since Leatherface. I have thousands of hours and I still need BP for items and add ons.
-
Modern NOED is too weak to waste time on totems. It literally shows it's aura now... Why bother with totems mid match?
-
Deadlock (a shorter 15 second version) Lethal Pursuer (the initial aura reading should be base, the perk should just be extended aura duration) Shadowborn (I can't believe I have to burn a whole perk slot for a decent fov) Fire Up Kindred Slippery Meat Sole Survivor (a milder version) Decisive Strike (current DS is not…
-
Have any of you "nerf Blight" players ever even played Blight? Cause I have and he's not very easy to play. Controlling his movements are rather difficult actually. I that is the biggest reason. The devs, like most of us are mediocre to average players. And for us average players Blight is super frustrating to use…
-
Nothing is wrong with the meta from the survivor side. Survivor is just as easy and strong as ever in fact more so since WoO does your pathing for you and you have 4 to 5 health states and perks to that speed up gens. The only problem with survivor is the same problem that has always been there. Other survivors not doing…
-
Did you know Some Survivor is underrated. I have never not escaped when I was the last survivor with Sole Survivor in my build. You open gates too fast for the killer to stop you and none of their aura perks can see you.
