  I'm glad they doubled the community bonus for the event because every single one of my games looks like this now. Re: the build and killer: Smerchant can earn like 2k BP per down+hook if the survivor has a claw trap on them, so she's my go-to farm killer now. Anyone who doesn't immediately throw a temper tantrum about her gets 2 hooked and gets to live. The build is there for laughs but it's actually surprisingly useful if you don't care about gens or kills.

Midnight Ghost Hunt came out of Early Access yesterday. Has anyone here played it? Any thoughts on the game? The concept seems interesting, but I haven't heard a peep about it from the usual content creator crowd.

The actual "meta" game of it is somewhat insufferable. As a fun prop hunt hide n seek its very cute but when its starts getting sweaty it loses all appeal for me.

So it seems that as Doctor if you kick a gen with Unforeseen your terror radius gets set to that gen, meaning you can fire Static Blasts out of the gen. This isn't exactly practical but it's funny as gently caress when it works You can also pair it with Ultimate Weapon so you know when someone is near that gen by the screaming, which is even funnier

Playing Killer. No strong advantage or anything, playing loving Clown of all people, had someone try to kill herself early on. Didn't seem like an accessibility thing since she didn't give up *immediately*. Sure enough, I let someone unhook her and she just stands there in front of me waiting for me to down her, and when I shake my head like "bro play the loving game" and try to leave she DCs. So I kill her bot, let the rest of the team go. In endgame, their Sable leads me to the basement. She points to the corner like "stand there, please". Then out of nowhere comes Gabriel and the two of them crouch in front of me emoting as hard as they can for like a solid 20-30 seconds in what I can only assume is Sex In Dead By Daylight before Gabriel flashbangs me and runs away.  This game is so loving funny and stupid and I will never quit

I swear there's some sort of law that the higher prestige level a survivor is, the more likely they are to kill themselves on first hook no matter what happened.

Ibram Gaunt posted:I swear there's some sort of law that the higher prestige level a survivor is, the more likely they are to kill themselves on first hook no matter what happened. I think we're reaping the seeds BHVR sowed like two years ago when they made disconnecting no or low penalty, whether for a long period of time and turned it back on or not. I'm not sure really, I just remember they did it and I don't DC on principle. This video sold me on the theory that the longer somebody plays DbD the more bitter and intolerant of anything but "could be a good match to me personally" becomes, with the average seasoned player flirting with ditching 1/3 to 1/2 of their matches on irrational principle alone. Running every killer in the game past four 66-73% chance to accept checks will give you some pretty brutal skewed odds. They're not the best statistics since ironing out statistical data is a meaty science but it about tracks with the community attitudes in the last year or two. A comment also nails the real killing data point not in the video, which makes the video paint a much more optimistic picture. "You could also add in other factors to further cut from the "I'm having a good time" pie. Like let's say I enjoy...70% of killers. That's alright right? Only 30% of the time I dislike the Killer's power. Oh. But now they're playing ruthlessly. Turbo tunnel or proxy camping. And/or running an obnoxious build/4 slowdowns. That kills some of that 70%. Or maybe I like the Killer. And so do two of my teammates. But one doesn't. So they DC. Now that match is ruined despite being set up, in my eyes, to be a good match."

Do I use Ultimate Weapon? No Do I find it irritating and overtuned to go against in its current state? Yes Do I think it should be changed? Yes Am I a survivor main? Yes Am I absolutely living seeing the same survivor mains crying over it who vehemently defended poo poo like old DS, DH, COH, MFT, saying it wasn't that bad and killers are just whiny and entitled and don't want survivors to have fun? Oh hell yeah

I know why it happens and it makes sense on some level but I really wish the 'out of game' sides didn't have to be so at eachothers throats. Seeing killer mains defend the awful eruption/brine meta because Survivors had old DS/old Object/old keys in the past, etc. It doesn't have to be "tit for tat" you don't need to take turns having unfun OP stuff...it should just be fun for everyone instead!!!

No, yeah, I agree that the game should be, before everything else, fun for both sides. I don't think any unfun perks or mechanics should exist for Anyone. It's just hard not to feel a little bit smug when the same people who defended miserable poo poo are now buckling as soon as they have to deal with something that isn't nearly as bad. But at the end of the day I wish this game was free of toxicity on all sides. I really do.

A lot of this traces back to gens. They are only tolerable when you have a chance of winning, the second a snowball starts they become nauseating, this is compounded by how narrow the survivor path to exitgates is.

Status icons were a long overdue feature and it is objectively good that they are in but I swear they also act as such a morale killer sometimes. It really just deflates you when you're doing everything right in a chase against a killer that's overcomitting, and the whole time you see no gen icons pop for even a second on your teams HUD. I really have no idea what some people are doing in this game, I've definitely gotten turned around and had a hard time finding gens time to time but like...No gens are done, they're everywhere, how are you not doing ANYTHING??

It's so good. Agi + Iron Grasp so you can just haul a survivor to anywhere on the map owns even harder.

The weird spikes that pop out when a gen is kick blocked look terrible. You seriously cannot tell if the gen is regressing anymore visually or even how complete it is since the searingly bright spikes obscure the whole thing at a glance.

Please I am begging for a little matchmaking consistency Like hypothetically let's say the skill exists on a scale of 1 to 10000 and I'm at, say, 4000. I'm not expecting a perfect 4000 match every time. I understand that's not feasible. I'm okay with 3000-5000. Maybe even a bit higher or lower as-needed. I understand matchmaking is a fallible system and people will naturally have 'off' matches or be carried in ways that put them occasionally lower or higher than they should be, as well. As long as there's some relative consistency from match to match, I can deal with people who are significantly higher or lower than me. But please... please do not swing me between 500 and 7000 in the span of two matches. The rubbernecking is just loving exhausting. 3 hooks against a high prestige team that isn't even SWF and perfectly dodges all of my Pyramid Head M2s then, immediately after, same time same killer same matchmaking bonus, going against a team with people who run in a straight line even when I have my knife in the ground and drop pallets then run...
