I left months ago, but for the killer side of things. Same meta perks, toxic survivors who think bully the killer is the main goal, the horrible map design with too many pallets and loops that can be chained together back to back. There's a myriad of reasons but the main thing was it wasn't feel and didn't feel like it…

God the hackers, making dbd nearly unplayable at this point. Its every other match. They even openly stream it on twitch. Theres a guy doing that right now and one of his teammates joined the chat to ask what menu he's using lol it's getting comical at this point. I play on console and when I see PC players in the lobby I…

I've played significantly less since the addition of mmr. Most killers simply arent viable the higher you go. A lot of times it isn't the survivors that are that good, it's the meta perks that allow them to extend chases and waste time. Not saying it's all because of perks. Of course the higher mmr survivors are better…

I think we get mostly weak killers because the devs are afraid of backlash. Most of the playerbase are survivor mains. Look how survivor sided most aspects of this game are. They don't want to upset the majority and as long as killers keep logging on every day to play against the same meta builds with the same outcomes…

I mean, the boon perks arent THAT good. Rarely have I had to go extremely far out of my way to kick one. And if I have to, they have to go just as far to use them. If they're in an area with no gen or a completed gen then they're wasting their time too.

Sure balance has always been an issue but after mmr was introduced it got worse. Before if you got a well organized swf you'd probably have a rough game but it wasn't often enough that I'd call it a huge issue. Now even if they aren't swf it seems like almost every survivor is very experienced or at least better than…

Look I don't think anyone wants a free stomp but currently killer is atrocious to play. It's not fun anymore and I used to love to play killer. Now it's gen rushing looping gods every game. Makes no sense. I'm not mad they're good and know how to play. It's just that between the safety on the maps such as pallets and other…

But the reason theres so many people who play survivor is because it's very stressful. Survivor is the easier mode. More people would play killer if it were balanced. The problem is the devs are afraid to upset the majority of their playerbase. I know lots of people straight up quitting the game and moving on to others. If…

Yea I'm done too. The toxicity, survivors thinking they're good based on their crutch perks, gen speeds, having to sweat every game, etc... Thanks for the memories, but dbd is on it's way out.

Yea after this post the same happened to me. Completely froze and disconnected me from the match and gave me a matchmaking penalty.

Getting extreme amounts of lag as well. Playing Nemesis on ps4. Freezes every couple seconds and when using the tentacle strike. Would be a great chapter otherwise. Disappointed so far

Yeah I'd like to return to those days myself. Was just saying that on another thread

When I first started my build was self care, premonition, urban evasion and I cant remember the last. I wanna say sprint burst lol seems like such a bad build now besides sb because I use none of those anymore. I wouldnt use other characters until I got self care on them lmao

This discussion has been moved

This one memory sticks out to me. It's when I first started and tried playing killer. I chose wraith and got obliterated by survivors with flashlights. I got so frustrated that I almost quit. I kept at it though. Didnt get much easier as I would get 360d a lot. Swing and turn and the survivors was already way ahead of me.…

The problem isn't pc players are better. Theres console players who are great. Theres more people on consoles though, and most of them aren't the best players out there. The majority play mainly survivor so when it's that saturated and only a small percentage of that group are the best players you run into bad players a…

I had a guy who was already dead and spectating his buddies tell me ggez because his friend got hatch. Couldve slugged for 4k but most of the time I dont care to. My favorite line they use, which I also heard recently was "we were just playing chill" "I wasnt even trying" Dude went on to say I was sweating and that he was…

Thanks for all the replies. Now that I've got a few days off work, I'm gonna go through and check some of these out! Feel free to keep adding your favorite creators. If someone adds someone you don't like personally just remember what the mod said and please dont bring drama into the thread. I hate when a good, informative…

Was something said that seemed like shade or drama?

Panda is an OG. Used to watch him all the time when he uploaded more often.

I really enjoys reds. Hes the reason for this post. Lol Got me thinking about who am I missing. That's why I love the forum. Have a question about something you can ask the community directly. :) I haven't seen Deadplays but I plan on checking out everyone in the replies. Thanks for answering!

Yeah I like this approach. I'm sure playing killer they've encountered enough mockery and trash talk. I'd hate to come off like I was making fun or mocking them. I just feel like if I could give people a couple small tips sometimes itd help their play a lot. Like it being ok to drop chases sometimes or not running the…

It's a nice change of pace and when it has, rarely, happened to me I did enjoy it.

It would be nice to get 12 hooks a game but sometimes just not possible. The goal is always 12 hooks for the 4k. I try to protect gens, always go for the ones doing the unhooking, spread the injuries around and try to get as many hooks as I can but if I start losing gens and need kills I'll switch strategies and start…

Oh I've heard it all. I was playing bubba recently too. Had a DC early for no reason so the rest of the game I would find and down the other 3 and walk away so they could at least get some points. Now some killers might let them go but I decided to hook them after I'd let them get some points so it wasn't letting them win…

I think everyone has pretty much said everything. My main thing that makes it unfun for me is the time factor as well. It makes playing certain killers like M1 killers impossible against efficient teams. Sometimes getting 12 hooks, always going for different survivors and playing by their rules just wont work. Especially…

Well idk if they reported but I got called toxic and a cheater for getting a 4k with bubba. Along with being told I have no skill and no honor. Lol Funny thing is it's the 1st time I'd used him in months and wasn't particularly good in my eyes. They went on to tell me that I didn't have to kill everyone and I should've let…

I just find it ridiculous at times to have to do all the extra stuff to get hits. Maybe dbd is just getting boring to me. Don't get me wrong, it's satisfying tricking survivors to walk right into you. I was just thinking if the stain wasnt there and it was more of a guessing game it might be more exciting. Then again,…

Yeah I understand it works both ways but every time I have to walk backwards to get a hit I find myself thinking how ridiculous it is. You're right, it could end up being a nerf. I would be curious to see how it played out though.

It should be every killer.

It wasn't meant as a killers vs. survivors post. I had just taken a break and come back to the most hostility I've seen in DBD in maybe ever. The point of the post was to ask if anyone else had experienced an increase in toxicity lately. I just so happened to play killer when returning and after every match I got messages…

Well I don't play freddy too often but bbq pop builds are common on most killers. What would you rather the killer do? Run a build that doesn't work for the sake of your fun while sacrificing their own? No offense but those are the types of messages I get complaining about the killer or build. I feel like anytime the…

I'm on ps4/xbox one do these people have to go out of their way to message me. I could understand if I was on pc and it was end game char stuff since it's right there but to click my name, go to the message screen and type out a whiny message blaming me for their poor play is ridiculous. Like I said, used to every now and…

One thing I wish I had known was to use your time wisely to do gens, heal under hook instead of running across map, don't hide every time you hear a heartbeat, and don't crouch walk everywhere. Oh and save your teammates, but not in front of the killer. Sorry that's a lot but just things I remembered from being new and…

I just never remembered it being like this. Had a game the other day as pig on lerys. 4 man swf, 2 survivors have object, they spread on gens, were good at loops, blah blah it was miserable. I did the best I could given the situation but it got down to 3 survivors and 1 gen. I had surveillance and a decent 3 gen so I was…

Killers have been saying this for a long time.

Here we go again. Doesn't anyone have anything new to talk about?

Life isn't fair..It's like when you're standing behind someone at a vending machine and the machine drops them 2 snacks or sodas but when it's your turn it only drops the one or worse, takes your money. You dont get online and throw a tantrum to the snack company because the guy before you got free stuff. It was just a…

Sometimes it seems like the game chooses the map that best counters my killer. Ex: I choose Huntress or Billy, entity says let's go to Lerys lol 😆

So far I've had better luck on my xbox than ps4 for sure but it occasionally will happen. I just hope they push out a fix soon. I could play on my pc but I enjoy the comfort of my console lol

I do this with spirit for some reason. Especially if I haven't played her in awhile. I'll whiff a few times until i get used to it again.

I understand having to get the ok on the release of a patch but dude they have to test it before they even get that far. Meaning they have ways to test on console before they release. I highly doubt they have contracts to test upcoming patches. That's what dev kits are for.

Do you think other gaming companies don't have ways to test their games' patches before they are released?

They don't even have to have a ptb for console. Just fire up a ps4 and test the build you're about to release in house. It blows my mind how often this happens. I know they care more about pc than anything else but we paid for this game too. Not to mention the money spent on dlc after dlc, cosmetics, and the rift. The…

I've just gotten so tired of it after 3 years. You either pay the killers who can deal with it or run in circles half the game. It's not really the loops though, like I've said before it's the amount of loops and pallets. If they were cut down just a tiny bit to make it matter if a pallet was dropped it'd make the game…

On paper I'd say clown is stronger. The slow helps in chases but the bottles are also good for zoning. In my games however it's opposite. I tend to do poorly with Clown lately even though I mained him and trapper for long periods. When I use trapper I end up doing well most games. Doesn't make much sense but that's how it…

I've commented plenty on posts like this. I agree wholeheartedly with everything OP said. It's become nearly unplayable at this point. Between the perks, too many loops and pallets and gen speeds it's gotten ridiculous. Sad part is survivors just think they're good at the game. They don't even realize they're on ez mode…

You are playing a survivor sided game and posting in a survivor dominated forum. Any suggestion you have to help the killer will immediately be met with "git gud" Here's what I say, stop playing. Survivors think killers are toys to mess with so they can run in circles and throw pallets while their buddies on comms rush…

@FlamingkittyUmad I think most people understand what a tier is. The wording is fine. Multiple games with a battle pass style rewards system use the word tier for each level. A page is a page. Common sense should tell you 400 ac isn't buying 4 pages of stuff. Sucks you misunderstood but now you know.

But not for killer. It's miserable. I agree with OP. Of course survivors would never want anything that would hinder their ability to run for 5 gens. To me, that shouldn't even be possible. It takes no skill, the other survivors are playing gen simulator and the killer is just chasing you in circles. Survivors who do this…
