Exactly this! Still *hands down* THE strongest regression perk, and all it needs is 4 downs. Literally get 4 hooks and we'll just give you a free generator. Really sucks when every match is 6 gens, plus whatever else they've got. To boot, the nature of the value enhances it even further by specifically targeting the…

Got my PS5 a few months ago, and found out achievements and playtime is separate for both versions. Immediately uninstalled the PS5 version and never looked back. No way I'm losing my playtime tracker! 5K+ hours, I'm keeping that ticker going!

Survivor main of 4+ years here: I used to avoid DCing, but not so much nowadays. I'm playing a game, and if I'm not having a good time I'm free to leave at any time. While not the best for every one else, I'm not duty bound to stick around and be someone's punching bag. It's not fun to get slammed by Eruption Jolt followed…

The devs have already answered this. The community kept asking for alternative objectives, so the devs delivered. It's strictly in your benefit if the survs are willing to waste their time rebooning over and over again instead of doing the gens.
-
99% are. It's the 1% that are a real menace. The 1% that knows you know so they position where they know you think you're safe. The 1% can actually change the outcome of a match, sometimes with just 1 well timed save. I've never understood why people hate on beamers so much as F-tier items. Yeah most don't know how to use…

I know this won't change anything, but I do want BHVR to recognize the extreme disappointment for not being willing to acknowledge the efforts needed to get P3AP. This may sound a little rude, but I don't want Iri shards, i don't need more blood points, and I sure as hell don't want a charm for the amount of effort I put…

It's not a particular streamers outfit. The twitch shirts are available on all original survivors (Jane, Kate, Dwight etc.). They're given to content creators who are a positive influence in the community and who tag their streams with #shirtmysurvivor at BHVRs discretion.
-
Interesting! I knew *some* capability for modifying control schemes existed, but I don't know they could help in this instance. While this fixes a small number of issues (yay, CJs!), the underlying issue still exists, where you go to vault a window/pallet and get vacuumed over to a locker, or when being hit with chains…

This is me all the way right now. Hardcore surv main, over 3k hrs. I *want* to play killer, but everytime I even try I get paired up against survivors wayyyyy above my league. It completely sucks the fun out of the game. I've made do with survivor for 4 years now, but it's starting to get a little stale. BHVR needs to deal…

Why do you want to watch the world burn? You can clearly see it's a character that comes with boon totems communicating very clearly that they have a boon. Do you really enjoy screwing over your team that much?
-
This isn't a single player game. You can't solo carry the whole team, regardless of skill. If I run for ages but no gens get done, that's not carrying. If I run for ages but get left to die on first hook, that's not carrying either. Indulge me. Explain how you would go about carrying while you're chilling on the hook for…
-
This would only work if DBD had proximity chat. I could sit there waving for 14 hours at the Claud crouched in the corner to bring her to the hook and teach, but they just crouch there, too terrified to use their 2 brain cells for anything. MMR is hell.
-
Nuke the meta and scrap MMR. It was disfunctional from the start and has only gotten worse over time.
-
My biggest advice is: Read the Room If 2 people are down and a third is getting chased, read the room. Perhaps you should go unhook? Likewise in reverse. If you see someone getting chased, maybe you should get on a generator.
-
Totally agree. But this is all after taking breaks, trying to queue up at better times, trying everything. This game truly has lost its spark, and if the devs don't bring it back it'll die. Genuinely almost brings me to tears.
-
I think there's a crucial misunderstanding here. You seem to be under the belief that we get paid to beat the other side, which is simply not the reality. In fact, I'd say that's more akin to a comp player. Streamers don't get big or succeed just because they're skilled. There's an entertainment component there that…
-
Thanks @MandyTalk, love how fast that response was! Appreciate you moving the thread, and hope you have a great day ❤️ Thanks for your hard work for the community too 😁

But I am but a mere console pleb, as are many others in the community. Codes for chapters is a nice universal way for all in the Fog to acquire a chapter via gifting.

Happens when loading into match, both on games from invites and solo queue, all survivor. It ate my BPS 😕 Platform: PS4 Crossplay: On
-
Amen! A lot of ######### going on, but what game doesn't have issues? It's been going strong for 5 years for a reason! It's a good game with good tension and interaction between sides. The thrill of playing a bet on a mindgame and having it pay off, the satisfaction of reading the other side's mind. Its a buggy mess, but it's…
-
Personally, I avoid BM unless it's an explicitly strategic move. If you're chilling around hook, Imma click my beamer to drag you away, likewise if I know a gen is about to pop and want to keep you away. As for the exit gate, I chill if you're nearby so you can get a few extra hits, and maybe luck out and fetch me. After 4…
-
Yeah, it's pretty bad. Out of the attempted 6 games, I've managed to load into two so far. Hoping they come out with a fix soon, but I'm sure they'll make BPs rain and likely extend the event. Pretty miserable in the interim though 😕
-
Ooh this is a good one! I'm a Nea main that wears the pink hair with the blue sweater. Killers comes in the game with a green mori (old version) and guns it for me non-stop all game. Needless to say, I died very quickly after the unhook, despite team trying to tank hits. After dying I just chilled watching my buddies play.…
-
If there was a single piece of advice I could give new survivors: Don't leave team mates on hook. Yes, you might die, but your teammates are the only thing that can help you get out. Leaving your first teammate to die at 4 gens essentially dooms you to a hatch game. It's better to risk going down yourself to make it to the…
-
OMG THANK YOU. It actually kills me seeing people do that, but I can't usually be assed to write a post about it. For the love of Christ people, good grammar is not hard.
-
K so lemme just recap here. For Christmas, you'd like: - No god loops. At all. Ever. - No safe pallets - A bloodlust buff - Max 4 pallets per map Sure! Anything else I can add to Satan's Wishlist?
-
I understand the premise of your argument, but still say it stands on shaky ground. As a survivor main, I can say with certainty I'd much rather not use my DS. If I sit and work a gen, and DS you, 100% you'll be coming for me as I've pissed you off. Other scenario is you see me, push me off the gen (which yes, I will…
-
It only forces a lose lose situation if you decide to tunnel. Oddly enough, neither of these perks synergize if you get off me and go find someone else. So tired of hearing killer mains whine about the survivor meta, but you clearly brought it onto yourselves. Do you think I enjoy wasting 2 perk slots every game just to…
-
Can confirm, worked permanent overnights in a call center for two years, and another full year during days. Current status: soulless, shattered creature Maybe that should be the next killer XD
-
Or or or, and I'm just throwing this out there, they were actually friends with a newer player. Admittedly, OPs lobby was a smurfing group, but Ive been in this situation to introduce new players. I've introduced a few of my friends to this game in the last year, and it's nice to have a few red ranks around to ensure they…
-
HAHAHAHA. Oh wait, you're serious... DS has the games easier counter: just don't be a dick and tunnel. Love how killers ######### and moan about DS and Unbreak-a-bill, and borrowed time, and yet all the perks exists solely to counter a specific playstyle (sadly, the most common one). Don't slug and you don't have to worry…
-
THIS. Where's my daddy big spins. That being said, I understand that cutie. People get burnt out, God knows I do tons. If he needs time to get back into the game, it's completely understandable. After playing daily for 3 years myself, I'm honestly not surprised. He is loved by his community, and seems genuinely interested…
-
Killers flooding in to whine about game balance when they just got a really strong map nerfed into the ground... Typical. Killer mains are so predictable, and their ego is so easy to bruise. Let's be honest, if you get looped for 4-5 gens, I owned you. Not just in game, but psychologically. Not my fault you're bad/booster…
-
Bring Sloppy and spread the damage. Depending on your playstyle, you may be better trying to sneak in for a cheap hit and pushing them off their gen, but don't be afraid to rotate targets. Depending on the caliber of survivor you're against, they'll either heal (aka, not gen rushing you) or stay injured (yay, instadowns)…
-
Hover over the option in your settings. You can't be matched with those on the same platform that are still opted in. If it was as you said, where you can match with any on your platform, I wouldn't be so salty about this change. But this outright feels like the devs forcing a very controversial update on all players. It's…
-
Except for the fact that as stated over the option screen, if I turn off crossplay I can only play with other PS4 members that ALSO have C-P turned off. My options either boil down to wait 6 hours for a lobby (already bad enough), or get bullied by unbeatable PC players. Thanks Devs, nobody asked for mandatory crossplay.
-
In response to the post, only for challenges. Had the one for killing everyone with Ruin as a perk, and didn't feel like playing many matches to finish it.
-
Unique effects are by far my favourite. Sure, a numbers add-on is fun here and there, but Mikey's been my favourite for a long time, and for a good reason. His add-ons completely change his dynamic, and he can be a very versatile killer. Feel like playing sneaky? Mikey's got ya! Feel like loud AF and walking in like a…
-
I could see this as a very good middle ground, with the addition of being able to split them up. If you come out with a stellar or unique cosmetic set, I will GLADLY purchase it, assuming I can still mix and match. I feel an 80/20 ratio would still be healthy in that case, and wouldn't necessarily feel like a milking…
-
Ebony Mori: Once all players have been hooked, grants you the ability to kill by your own hand (Still first hook, but requires work and isn't explicitly a free win.) Ivory Mori: Grants the ability to kill one survivor by your hand after they've been hooked once (still first hook. Not a free win, but definitely a help for…
-
Of course, I'm aware. It's still quite a shame however that they are blocking off certain cosmetics and preventing then from being customized. As stated, I'm a sucker for DbD, but I recognize the value of choice. I'd have to seriously consider it, but even if I could break then up after purchased together I'd be slightly…
-
Not exactly the healthiest changes of late. Personally, I love the battle pass. I'm a sucker for DBD, and will gladly spend on something I want. I just won't spend on things I don't want. It's about value, and choice is a string seller in terms of value. That comes from 4+ years of experience in sales environments based on…
-
Personally, I think a much healthier option would have been to doable the item on hit for 60/90/120 seconds. Still takes the item out of play for a significant period without robbing people's items away. Nothing triggers me more than playing a white ward only to be denied anyways.
-
@PrincessPoop Don't get me wrong, I understand they need revenue. I just don't know that the bets way to generate it is by removing player choice, a key feature in a game designed around ever changing builds and metas. If any devs want to hear from me on alternative roots, I, like many other die-hard fans, would be…
-
Man I feel dumb! Where? I scanned through the news and did (what I thought was) a pretty thorough googling, and found no mention anywhere!
