Dawgstar posted:The survivor thing especially resonates because you start to learn that the best place to put traps is right around the corner because a lot of survivors hug the walls by instinct even when not in a chase. Like while a lot of good Trappers think you shouldn't trap the basement, IF you do put it right around the left corner at the bottom of the stairs. Truth. Been caught that way more times than I like.

Similarly, don't trap the shack doors or window because everyone expects that. Trap in the grass near the outside corner of shack on the non-pallet side, so that when someone vaults the window and tries to use the extremely strong shack loop, they hug the wall into your trap.

Saw it posted elsewhere, but Pig would be so much more fun if once per match she had the ability to close an exit gate that's been opened, anyone inside is free to go, anyone still outside can now deal with Pig until they power a gate again or make it to hatch. And play Hello Zepp for the duration of the ability

When I learned earlier on that all of the category BP bonus add-ons had the same cap, I thought it was a bug that would clearly be fixed as BBQ doesn't. That said, Dowsy got use out of them during his Hardcore challenges as BP gains were critical and hitting the cap was important to do every match. But hardcore challenges are essentially meming so it feeds Otzs point.

Distressing buffs your point gain in the same way that Bloodpoint add-ons do, whereas WGLF/BBQ/BP offerings all specifically say bonus added at the end of the Trial (so it ignores the 8k per category cap)

I thought Otz was looking for something interesting with 'the thing', but it turns out he played 400+ games to make the point that "crappy add-ons don't get used much because they're crappy." I mean, he's right, but who cares? There are tons of perks and add-ons and offerings that are bad or useless and so they just pile up in your inventory. Next he can do a challenge to see how long until a survivor runs Buckle Up or some poo poo.Doublestep posted:I actually can't believe it took that many games because I use the party popper addon on Clown constantly because it's funny Same and I like the little noise it makes.

I mean you probably stand to gain more points by running good addons and doing well in the game than you do by running these lovely joke addons and getting stomped (even with the bonus points), so yeah

Party bottles are gameplay neutral, which makes it (probably, slightly) better than not running an add on at all which is not the case for most other of the BP Addons

Sound design and visuals would be aces and totally unique, we don't have a sci fi horror killer at all, classic good design, Shaggy design and those perk concepts are fun(numbers need tweaking, Zoinks is open to abuse and Lets Split Up is really weak for non-generators and broken for split generators) but it'd be a homerun.

Me and Medullah were talking that you should spawn into the map as a random killer then a certain amount into the match have it be revealed to be the REAL killer, who has NOED or some poo poo heh. edit: not really on the NOED

Question about the hatch - I know it *opens* when the number of survivors is less than the number of generators left +2 or something, but when does it *appear*?

It doesn't open until there is one person left in the map. Phone quoting the wiki: Visibility The Hatch becomes visible after the following condition is met: Number of completed Generators = Number of alive Survivors + 1 More specifically: More specifically: 4 Survivors alive: 5 Generators completed, Exit Gates are powered 3 Survivors alive: 4 Generators completed, 1 Generator left 2 Survivors alive: 3 Generators completed, 2 Generators left The exception to this is when there is only 1 Survivor left alive anymore, in which case the Hatch will immediately become visible and open automatically, regardless of how many Generators have been completed. As soon as the Hatch is visible, it can be opened manually using Keys , as well as be revealed by Aura-reading abilities

What the hell does the mist do? The offerings, I mean, both survivors and the killer can bring stuff that thickens the mist but I don't see anywhere what sort of gameplay impact that has

Realistically it's hard to even notice unless stacked.

On killer, you might see mist offerings for stealthy ones like a Ghostface creepin around, or Hag or Trapper wanting their traps a little more hidden. On survivors it is used by stealthy dorks who creep around and avoid chases. Blendettes etc.

Sometimes they're running Lucky Break (once per match getting hit erases all scratch marks and blood for like a minute. gently caress that perk sideways)

It's going bad in the Hardcore Survivor Season 2. Our heroes are down to 9 survivors and are at ranks 7-4. They've been losing a lot of characters today after coming up against a couple of extremely sweaty stream snipers, and making some extremely questionable plays under pressure. https://www.twitch.tv/otzdarva https://www.twitch.tv/dowsey https://www.twitch.tv/ayrun https://www.twitch.tv/thejrm_

Tha_Joker_GAmer posted:how sweaty can a killer be vs a 4 man swf really though? In this case "watched the streams to see what builds the SWFs were running, picked a very specific counter-build and used a map offering to send them to a map that would invalidate as many of their perks as possible". And then did it again a few games later. Due to the way the challenge is set up (only one person can play a character at one time etc) they don't have meta perks like Dead Hard, Decisive Strike or anything. I think Dowsey's the only one who managed to even unlock Borrowed Time before the character died. Medullah posted:Otz hosed up bad with Jill, taking what should have been an easy hook save with everyone getting away to a 3k because he ran into a bear trap he knew was there Yeah, there have been a few plays like that. Stream sniping is one thing, but the squad have brought a lot of problems on themselves with bad plays. I mean it's inevitable, people aren't perfect.
