Nessus posted:If you've saved up BP on survivor, go ahead and buy up a killer a few ranks which can give you a lot more flex and options. However, my big advice would be, first, just completely write off your first eight games, and second, count it as a win if you get one kill. Thanks! I'm following some advice and decided to move from huntress to leatherface for his perk for more BP - not sure how to give it to other killers yet his chainsaw took some getting used to but it's not bad. I've had a few kills, I just finished a 3 kill game which was nice? last guy rabbitted out of a bolt hole unfortunately. I also picked up ghostface but people tell me he's bad - ideally we get a scary movie version of him and cindy campbell at some point.

Had a game as killer, where I hooked and killed 2 survivors, but couldn't find the other 2, gens were at 3 remaining, then suddenly both escaped at once? Not sure I understand what happened

Played a match yesterday, first two guys I downed immediately disconnected, third played possum but I found and hooked him, the fourth one just ran to me and started ducking in front of me. Very odd

Doomykins posted:Bullying is tedious when the skill disparity is super huge. There's definitely a point where a newer killer can't learn a thing against people doing 720s around his goofy rear end. Yeah sure you can at least make an attempt or learn the map or something. But it's just part of the two things you gotta deal with to learn the game, the russian roulette matchmaking and the skill/rank curves. That said there's almost always a chance to learn and practice and a lot of the tea-bag stuff does work in your favor if you get accustomed to reading it. I win half my hard matches because I ID the best looper and ignore them. When 1-3 not so great loopers are on the hook then the endzone champ and their flashlight get stuck making risky plays while the gens wind down. New killer here, I don't enjoy being clowned on by a 4 swf group on comms, who are all bad mannered, body block like crazy, are all running the same perks, and who stalk the killer with flashlight to force the killer to a no hook game, then have the temerity post game to say they're not try Harding. How am I supposed to learn when this is happening on a level 1 killer? When I'm a rank 18 killer going up against rank 12s?

Played a game yesterday where I was playing as a low level huntress (rank 13, level 10?ish? idk, I just wanted to practice throwing hatchets), got paired up against a red rank twitch streamer and his swf posse, downed the streamer early, hooked him, and every few seconds I'd be getting swarmed with his 2 buddies trying to unhook them, every single hatchet I threw hit the streamer I lost the game, because I was too busy trying to down survivors who were trying to help their friend, and literally could not turn my back away from them to focus on gens post game, I copped a load of abuse from them, they went on my steam profile to insult me and I kinda feel that, if you're going up as a group of two red rank streamers with a rank 20 so you only fight low ranked killers, and your only goal is to frustrate the killer, then you can kinda expect to be tunneled a bit, even wit the best of killer intentions. It's not like I even wanted to focus on him, just ill luck that every hatchet I threw hit them instead of their friends, and that I couldn't leave without them making a bustout attempt. idk, the game is fun but very frustrating as a killer.

Just had the most incredible game extremely bad mannered survivors with me as a killer, I'm playing huntress with an iridescent blade. Lots of bad mannered moments, deliberate teabagging, body blocking, but the blade really really carries me the whole game by getting lots of unexpected downs on them pick off the meg who had been using her toolbox to deny me hooks pick off the bill who was also doing that and was teabagging me every time he'd leap over a window until finally I'm left against two survivor characters I don't know (David King and Nea Karlsson according to the match details) I tap David and down him, drag him down to the basement and I'm about to hook him when I remember there's even odds that they used the blueprint to make the hatch spawn there, so I drop him right in front of it, and decide to reload my hatch and boom, there's Nea So I put them both on the hook David's got the Slippery Meat perk and wiggles off and I just crack him as he lands incredible game, 10/10 for just how flat out cathartic it felt to smash those smug fucks

rydiafan posted:What kind of moron teabags a huntress through a window? One who's seen a buddy take a hatchet and go down in one hit, so knows I'm only carrying one hatchet and haven't reloaded yet On a related note: I thought that the addon that gave you 2 extra hatchets worked with the iridescent blade so you'd end up with 3 hatchets, not just one

I'm still newish to the game and been leveling survivors for perks, I know how to use sprint burst, but gently caress if it isn't irritating that I have to blow it if i want to run while outside of a chase. It should be a QOL thing to make it only trigger when in a chase, because having to give up a survivability perk to be able to run to a dumbass who got himself hooked leaves me up a creek when I unhook them, and if I don't run, no one else on the team will go there.

As a solo queue survivor, having a "gently caress it, these guys are useless, I'm out" button is great. Yeah, it's a bad design but it's not a balanced game, and it's tiring dealing with people missing skill checks, leaving you to dead on the first hook, running a killer to you on gen, cleansing dull totems and chests, ignoring gens / hiding from the killer and otherwise being unhelpful. I'm no paragon, I make mistakes, but with all of the above, sometimes it's fine just tap out when 2 of your team mates are dead, there's 3 gens left, and the killer is on your rear end because he's running tinkerer and beelined straight at you when your gen hits 70%

saw a video of a hacked ghostface earlier and clicked on it out of curiosity, it was pretty funny, he was floating through the air machine gun firing huntress hatchets and downing people in a single hit. none of this subtle poo poo, go big or go home. I don't think I'd even be mad if that happened

yeah I just picked up undying and ruin wish I'd got devour the other day but I didn't play, I'll just wait for it to show up at some point or another on a related note if you unlock a power through the store, and later buy the killer and start levelling them, do you get a free 150k bp when you get to unlockable perks for that killer, or is it just "nup"

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

Dawgstar posted:My only definition of camping hooks is standing right in front of the hooked survivor, possibly while smacking them. I just think that's a boring way to play and not fun. I don't count 'oh look the survivors are trying to creep up like sneaky bunnies so I'm going to go chase them.' Longer lunge due to a speed increase when coming out of stealth. Coupled with Coup De Grace leads to some wild distance lunging

Umbreon posted:It also doesn't help that killers have far more ability to ruin the game for survivors than the other way around. For example, tunneling someone out 5 minutes into the match is great for the killer, but feels completely horrible to have done to you as a survivor, and if a killer really wants you dead, there's nothing you can do about it even if your team wins anyway because of it. This happened to me last night, against a trapper at badham 4, team-mate gets hooked in the basement and every entrance is rigged, wait for him to depart, and within 10 seconds of me undoing one of his traps, he's back to lock it, wait for him to leave again, undo one trap, in, rescue the kill and he's back already, Jill gets tagged, I get tagged, I get hooked, Jill gets picked up and I just say gently caress it and let myself die No one's coming back and I'm a liability, 6k points in and I'm out with no recourse.

My solution to the issue of totems being one and dones is that when cleansed it should wane in power instead of being immediately gone. Just make every totem generate tokens over time to a maximum of say 3, and when cleansed it loses a token every 30 seconds until it finally shuts off. For totems that already collect tokens (devour etc), they lose them at either an accelerated rate (to finish at the same 90s timeframe) or at 30s per token. Something like hope would therefore lose its associated increasing power over time, no more mori, no more exposed, slowing move speed until it's completely gone - solves the problem of losing power immediately and functionally having a dead perk because the survivors spawned in staring straight at the totem. It's not a perfect solution but I still think it's more balanced than what their current system is.

So to be clear, they just implemented a totem for survivors that is a combined self-care / botany knowledge that stacks with botany knowledge and can't be permanently stamped out? I'm a bit flabbergasted to be honest - how is that in any way fair to killers? I mean I know that killers collectively are going to be buffed, but nowhere to that degree. We're already super strapped for time, if survivors can undo damage in 4 seconds flat then what's the point? E: gently caress it, they need to rework killer totems to make them permanent if they're giving that to survivors, that's cooked. Make undying baseline and move the hex to a random free totem until there's none left.
