I honestly think custom matches with friends with one buddy rotating as the Killer role would be the absolute best way to play this game. Edit: What a shameful page snype. Here, have a Clown:

Otz is live, and it looks like they're experimenting with hiding prestige number in the lobby. Would be good if they made it optional, so you could choose whether to hide yours or not. Still shows up in the endgame summary screen.

It's crazy fun, especially when drinking. I was playing Spirit once and at the end they were running to the exit gates and my friend kept screaming "I KNOW HE'S HERE SOMEONE DROP A PALLET SOMEONE DROP A PALLET" and of course I appeared and downed him and MORI'd him. Afterwards he, very seriously, says "You all let me down tonight. I'm very disappointed" Another match one of the guys was close to blackout stoned and picked Myers. We assumed he was Scratched Mirror because he didn't level up at all, but at the end of the match it was revealed that no, he was not scratched mirror he just went down in the basement and couldn't figure out how to get back up.

Oh right I forgot to post my final killers faced Stat tracking. I started this because I went against 3 plaything + pentimento Weskers in a row and I wanted to know if he was as oversaturated as I thought (yes). Most of these games were NA in the evening/at night, but a few were in EU. Unfortunately I started this a couple weeks after everyone had already stopped playing Singularity so it's not reflective of the chapter as a whole but I did start a new one with Xenomorph immediately so that one should be accurate. curiousTerminal fucked around with this message at 00:45 on Sep 1, 2023 |

Wesker is very strong, easy to play, and from a highly popular license. He's also the only killer of the top 5 (Nurse, Blight, Mastermind, Spirit, probably Plague right now) who's mechanically simple and plays like a normal killer, so I'm not shocked he's everywhere. Hell, I fukkin' love playing as him. He's just fun as hell.

Oh I know why he's so popular but I still don't like playing against him and I wanted stats to back up how tired I am of his snarky voicelines. I legit once confused his terror radius music for one of the generics he's so common.

I mean, him being so much of the playerbase on himself is probably a massive statement on the state of killer design as a whole right now which... yeah. Most newer killers are overcomplicated, underpowered nonsense who get their big fans but not much else of the playerbase keeping interest in them. Hell, Wesker's basically just powercrept Pig (alternate attack mechanics, slowdown baked into their base kit, weird and unintuitive stealth via crouch/larger then normal killer radius) which is probably the only really damning thing about his design. Like, of all the killers released between Blight and now Mastermind is the only one that's really 'stuck' except maybe Nemesis and it's not exactly surprising why.

Xenomorph pretty much stuck the landing too, so I expect they'll nerf its tail to be so clunky no one ever plays it (I already see the whining from the usual suspects)

I'll be kinda sad if they hide prestige, because I usually like to tone down my loadouts if I'm up against sub 3 prestige survivors and I won't be able to do that anymore

https://twitter.com/g0rejira/status/1697383143525757251?s=20 The hitbox of the Xenomorph's tail is crazy. If you aim high and drag down you can hit over walls. Survivors gonna need to learn how to use turrets ASAP.

destroying turrets seems very inconsistent to me, can you not break them while they're powered down?

Counter counter point - from what I've seen watching streamers over the last few days they are extremely effective when placed intelligently. The problem is, survivors don't know how to use them and put them right out where the Xenomorph can just tail whip them easily and barely loses any distance. Whereas when survivors place them in unexpected areas the Xenomorph doesn't notice them until they've done the work needed. I had a super long chase today where I kept dragging him between two that I set up at two loops and he was standing almost the entire chase

The thing is, she's kind of fun to play, she's just not going to win unless you 3 gen and draw the match out forever. I've had some good matches where I use her pseudo stealth to have some fun.

I've had a lot of luck with skull merchant without even really worrying about 3 gens. Just holding onto the drones until I need them, getting into chases to scope out their playstyle, putting one or two drones where I think people will run to or will make things easier for to me deal with them later, and especially setting up drones in jungle gyms during a chase so they're forced to commit and get slowed, or they have to bail ASAP. I do use the addons that make you faster and survivors slower in a zone almost exclusively, which is probably what makes that playstyle possible in the first place. It works really well most of the time though and is a lot more fun than puppyguarding gens.

I've gotten quite a bit of use out of the pallet auto-destruction when they have a claw trap. Can force some really bad choices if played right.

Was in a TCM just now, playing Sissy, and I got off a poison blow just as Leland locked me into a grapple and it locked me out of almost all interactions and prevented me from slashing or poisoning. The poison cloud didn't go off until after the grapple, which Leland won. I blew the cloud, got knocked over, and that's when I couldn't do anything else for the rest of the match except open doors.

The Xenomorph is probably one of the best killers I've played of the recent batch; the tunnel system lets you get close in on survivors, the tail is actually not that hard to use, and the perks mesh fairly well with the strengths of the killer (especially the one that tags injured people). Which is kind of unfortunate because it's made me come to the realization that I might just not like playing DbD anymore. I've recently been getting into fighting games in a big way and it's a lot of fun to see where I can improve and what mistakes I made in a match, but I full on dislike playing killer anymore because it's the opposite of that. You down someone and there's someone in your face with a flashlight, or a sabo running to the only hook in range. Chasing people coming off the hook is a nightmare because you have people body blocking with Endurance or just taking a hit to heal later, since as stated above downing people doesn't mean a lot. I've been able to secure wins but only in the most sweaty, unfun way possible that involves a swarm of people healing and going down and healing again because survivors have no real fear of killers anymore. Oh, and once the match is down to one or two generators it becomes a game of making the match last as long as physically possible with the gens at 90%. I could switch to survivor, but the issue then becomes that you have to be an annoying little gnat and do all of the above to get a decent return on a game, because "complete the objective efficiently" isn't enough by a long shot, which means that the game is either very easy when you do gens and leave, or takes an eon to complete. Either way I find it to be kind of a boring experience, which is why I almost exclusively play Killer. It's just frustrating because I really like the idea of the game but I end up annoyed and tilted on games that I win. And even if I treat it as a "oh well just chill and play normally" it turns into flashlight clicking and teabagging all over the map as the match drags on and on.

It make my game and therefor it's a bad killer. But more seriously, I've been talking with a friend about the meta&such and one of the tips he gave me is that it's the survivor who lead the symphony, not the killer. They could draw the game for hours on end and still win in the end.

Finally getting to play Xeno and my success in each match seems entirely dependent on how Survivors utilize turrets. Bad turret usage? Easy 4K, maybe 2 gens completed. Adequate/Good turret usage? loving forget it, I’m getting teabagged at the exit with zero hooks.
