That's loving incredible and I wish the Survivors would hear that coming at them.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ho7-3MUpTFs This is depressingly true. My buddies and I used to play for hours, now it's 3-5 games max, with at least one of us having a miserable experience every one of them due to getting tunneled or slugged, before we call it a night due to just not getting any joy out of it.

I’ve stopped playing unless there’s a Rift or event going on and I don’t really miss playing it nightly like I was two months ago.

Yeah I got super pissed trying to finish the survivor side of the Halloween event and just stopped playing as soon as I wrapped it up. I came back when Chucky dropped for a couple days but realized I just wasn't enjoying myself. I'm hoping the new modes are invigorating, I really love horror and there's so many good licenses, but poo poo's boring af yo

Played against a billy who effortlessly killed all of us without a single gen done. That was certainly an experience. Also got hard tunneled by a blight who gave zero shits about OTR and DS and the usual.

flashlight crouch-spam survivor gang dragging the match out for as long as possible is the last game I remember playing. Uninstalled after that and now I just keep up with the news and update cycle hoping something will make me want to actually play again someday. Chucky almost did it

As always the core gameplay has fundamental flaws that can and should be taken advantage of by killers to win as efficiently as they can even if its the most unfun strategy to play against (and I'd argue to play as). Blight, billy, wesker, nurse, spirit, Oni and to an extend chucky all excel at proxy tunnelling and are already strong in their own right. But they make it that much better. loving change your base game BHVR.

The top kinda makes me feel like I'm playing Mary in Silent Hill though. The individual pieces for the second one, in the rift now available, look super good. The rift cosmetics are pretty rad this time around in general. I love Dwight's dorky usher costume. Mikaela is... kind of bizarre and grandmapilled. Nea is really cool. Felix is surprisingly nice. Deathslinger looks great. Billy is sweet and sad. Plague is a recolor of an outfit I always wanted (worm crown!!!!). Clown came out great. I had a bunch of chill killers tonight tbh it's been pretty vibes. This game is so hit or miss sometimes on what kinds of killers you get. I wish the matchmaking was more consistent, there was more encouragement to be silly/fun through a commendation system, and for tunneling to be countered effectively by built in measures. Those are my main complaints.

I mean i know technically he has a new mechanic and is therefore technically new but, this is basically the same power level as old school billy before they gutted his power, meta perks and add ons. Unless he ends up being even more overpowered and then lol. DbD has come full circle and it's kind of amusing.

Its been a couple days now of playing almost exclusively billy. If there ever were a killer that will reignite or finally bring the "tunnelling is the optimal strategy and incredibly unfun to play against" argument back to light its new billy. Its ridiculous. Its easy. Its guaranteed. Don't get me wrong, I think new billy is great, he is so so fun. Mobility is a fun time. But it really really highlights just how easy it is to brutally and effectively tunnel. If not for that lame, almost unpunishable strategy, he would just be absolutely perfect, fun, challenigng, but strong. But while he could excel at a normal hook rotation or map pressure strategy, he really really really shines at just brutal unabashed tunnelling.

Even if you bring a full anti-tunnel build Billy can just ignore all of that poo poo and kill you through it anyway. It doesn't help that it's gotten so bad that most of my games include at least one dc or hook suicide as soon as possible once we learn it's a Billy. Fix your game, BHVR. I've tried DS, DH, OTR, even styptics, and all of that combined is not enough to save you from tunneling. It's so laughably easy to burn through all that and lose no pressure whatsoever because you can be on the opposite side of the map in about a half second.

As a billy, especially in overheat. I can return to hook pretty much within 3 seconds of the unhook happening. Sure I could chase the unhooker and maybe get an instant down with my chainsaw, but they might be good at playing around the chainsaw, so whacking the unhooked with an m1 to disable endurance or OTR, and then just getting one more hit any which way is way way easier. Maybe they have DS or deadhard, and maybe it extends the chase another 10 seconds max, but it just doesn't matter. Eventually it'll be a 3v1 and with billy's mobility, even if there is only 1 gen left, its pretty much over.

I agree with you, Relyssa, that hard tunneling and proxying is a massive problem and ruining games more than anything else. But I also feel like the DCing/suiciding might be less "billy is a terrible killer for tunneling and they're understandably leaving" and more like "oh ew it's the killer I've seen a bunch thanks to the new update/personally dislike in some way and so I'm going to make it everyone else's problem", e.g. all the pissbabies who DC or throw every time they see it's Chucky, Wesker, Xeno, Onryo, (deep breath) Legion, Huntress, Nurse, Pinhead, Trickster, Skull Merchant, Bubba, Twins, Clown,

Separately I would like the devs to personally explain to me why we cannot see someone's self-unhook progress when they're being camped because it's making the mechanic suck absolute poo poo and cause tons of people to go to 2nd hook, thus widening the solo queue/SWF gap AGAIN. I present the following scenario: I'm being camped on hook. Self-unhook timer is going up. Self-unhook timer is almost full, but I'm about to go to 2nd hook. Some well-intentioned random teammate runs in to prevent this. The timer stops filling because a teammate is nearby. They take a hit from the killer. I cannot self-unhook. I go to 2nd hook. Teammate unhooks me in front of the killer and gets downed right by the hook. Teammate is now hooked and camped, repeating the cycle. If only we had some loving way to tell how high the timer is so I could've self-unhooked, avoiding going to 2nd and my teammate getting hooked for no reason!!!

Solo queue sucks poo poo and I assume it’s because bvhr has the thread the needle between keeping swfs manageable and solo queue bearable and while things such as the gen regressions limits and anti-face camp are nice, it needs a lot of work at a faster clip. Again, they need to just bite the bullet and do a massive Quality of Life update in lieu of a normal chapter, but I guess better to get money now and let the game slowly bleed out is better than long-term stability. Oh poo poo, bhvr slugging their own game

Solo queue is by far the worst it's ever been, and that's kind of impressive at this point.

It runs on PWYF rules now, anything that generates a bloodpoint event on a survivor takes a token. It's exactly where the devs want it: A tool for M1 killers and also any killer who can simply ignore the obsession. Probably not where it should be, though.

I like to slow walk away from where the killer saw my scream bubble so he's very confused as to where I went The prolonged blindness is way more of a problem though. Can't see people on hook or on the ground.

STBFL was such an easy fix, shut it off near a hooked survivor, that I have to assume they simply couldn’t implement that kind of fix for whatever programming spirits it roused in dbd’s haunted code

They need to take at least a year off of making new content and just rework the entire game. It's fundamentally broken in so many ways and it's becoming more and more obvious.

I've been trying the Singularity and what is happening in survivors brains when I create a camera as they drop the pallet, shoot them with it and they immediately turn around and hop the pallet directly into me? I mean, I'm happy for the free hit but what? It's like 25% of the time too.
