Dawgstar posted:I always forget that one exists and it seems a shame because historically busting has made me feel good but I remember seeing of the originals you could only play Ray and Winston which felt weird. At least throw in some people from Extreme Ghostbusters or Answer the Call. I bought it and Evil Dead full price because the guys I play DBD with were all in on them (Ghostbusters specifically). The week it came out I was in Vegas for work so I didn't get a chance to play the opening weekend, which they did all weekend....and then never played again. It's the main reason I didn't buy TCM at launch, I hate playing with random teams in DBD, I really only play Survivor as SWF, only playing alone if I've got a specific challenge I'm going after. Otherwise I play killer if I'm playing alone. For the OP, another suggestion is to move the roadmap closer to the top so returning players can get a rough estimate of where the game is at. Edit - The biggest problem with Evil Dead and Ghostbusters that caused them to be largely DOA, the fact that they were Epic store exclusive.

Yeah, plus with Stranger Things going into the vault, you have a pretty decent set of perks that are general perks so you're pretty good with whatever character you decide to start with. Self-Aware is a great movement speed buff plus helps you understand scratch marks, Inner Healing is a pretty good "oh poo poo I need to heal" perk. All three of Steve's perks aren't bad if you don't have any other option. Add Resilience, Kindred, Deja Vu (my current must have on any build perk), We'll Make It, Spine Chill, etc and you have quite a few options even if you've only got the basic survivors.

Yeah Windows was really, really good. I always take it in my chase builds. 20s cooldown after a vault or dropped pallet isn't that huge a deal but definitely takes it down a tier.

Shaman Tank Spec posted:This pretty much puts to rest any claims that they're not balancing by pick rate. Windows is not an amazing perk, but it's useful for solo players and newbies so people run it a lot. It's one of the top used perks in high level MMR too. I really never thought much about it until they buffed it, then I started using it and it's amazing for chases. Like, as much as you think you know a tile and the map, it's useful as hell to know if pallets are dropped already or if there's an unsafe vault.

Honestly the truth is you don't need to learn evvvverrrry perk but I'd say there's a good 10-15 on each side that you should probably understand as it will seriously affect your play.

Evil Kit posted:While I don't disagree that MTF is frustrating in that you have no idea the survivor you're chasing is 3% faster while injured, what about the flip side of Killers using perks/add-ons to get subtle or more blatant speed boosts? Should those be signposted as well? If you watch the video Otz's point is that MFT is the only Exhaustion perk that doesn't have a tell for the killer. Thus, you have to always play assuming they have it. Killers are faster than survivors and I don't think they need any type of tell for the survivors when they're moving faster, tbh.

Evil Kit posted:Dead Hard doesn't have a tell either tho, and it also forced killers to play a specific way. It sounds like something BHVR just needs to change then yeah. Dead Hard has gigantic tells when it's been used. Yeah you have to play around it, but once it's used you know "Yep, this person has Dead Hard" and your style changes. With MFT you never know for sure that it's what they have.

Evil Kit posted:The point I'm making with Dead Hard is that until they use it (and this give away they have it), you don't know they have it. Certainly at one point in the game it was so prevalent it was easier to play like every survivor was running it! Which is what MTF is also doing, it just doesn't have an obvious give away at any point. I get what you're saying, but MFT is the ONLY exhaustion perk that has no tell even after hitting. Dead Hard will get you one time but after that you can play around it. Sprint Burst - You know as soon as you start chasing them. Lithe/Balanced landing - You know as soon as they vault/fall Overcome - You know as soon as you hit them Smash Hit - You know as soon as you're hit with a pallet Head On - You get hit with it from a locker Maaaybe you can count Background Player as a perk you don't notice, but it's use case is so small. Otz just wants some indicator like the others. There's also the fact that it's easy to hack the game and give yourself a natural 3% speed boost and thus harder to see cheaters, it was already hard enough.

Gort posted:So I have a group of four friends (four including me, so four people in total) and this game's on discount this weekend. If we all buy it with the intention of just playing with the four of us (IE: One killer, three survivors) are we going to have a good time? It'll be fun, but you'll only be able to do custom matches with killer as a friend, and the downside to custom matches is they don't give you any points for progression. But the upside is, in custom games all perks are unlocked so if that's all you're doing it won't matter much. And yeah, if you do a custom lobby with only 3 survivors there will be 1 less generator to repair. You can always add a bot for the 4th though.

Lonjon posted: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. We do it sometimes when there's 4 of us. 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.

rydiafan posted:Counterpoint: Turrets don't do poo poo. Xeno is always able to destroy them before they knock him out of crawler mode. They are a minor distraction, buying the survivor a second of time at most. 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

Shaman Tank Spec posted:Oh I'm sure he'll be back to DBD in a few months, but if I was Hank Behaviour, I might take it as a bad sign that people aren't like "hey this is a new game in a genre I enjoy, I'm gonna play it for a while" but "I am so fed up with DBD's bullshit that I'm jumping ship". People are shouting from the rooftops that they need to start fundamentally fixing their game, to very little effect. Doubtful. It's a new game, has that new game smell, but BHVR won't be panicking unless it's 3 months down the road and TCM is still higher than it. Which I'm sorry, it won't be. TCM seems like a fantastic game to play if you have 7 friends to play together, but from what I've seen on Twitch it's already becoming slightly unfun with the people that are treating it like it's a competitive game.

They definitely won't buff it, but I can see them not realizing the problem with it and nerfing the wrong thing. As I've said before, the things people would like to see in a change - - Some sort of clue the survivor has it - Some time limit - Removing the healing endurance part of it - But most importantly, get rid of haste stacking.

Danknificent posted:So what's the tier list with the alien in the game? Relyssa posted:Otz has Xenomorph at roughly A tier so far. He'll probably settle in at A and stay there once the tail recovery bug is fixed and they fiddle with turrets. But right now he's like Sadako where if you don't know how to go against him it's a challenge. I had a 3 gen chase against him last night because two loops had gens in good position, so combined with MFT and Resilience plus it was obviously a baby Xenomorph I was pretty easily avoiding him and he was without his power most of the time.
