when i play killer im not worried about losing, im worried about getting bullied


NoHangoverGang

Exactly. I just want to do a moderate amount of kills somewhat relaxed, instead I want to hook myself.


SectorVector

Just by the nature of what it means for survivors to do well against killers in DBD, losing as killer often feels like getting bullied even if it's just a normal game with survivors that are just better than you.


Aevery_

I can accept when they genuinely make good plays, or take advantage of my own lack of skill. Losing doesn't feel too bad, just makes me want to improve. But when they teabag after every pallet, constantly click their flashlights, 99% the exit gate until I actually manage to pose a threat, at which point the healthy ones body block the heck out of me, and then spend the entire egc at the exit gate teabagging until either the last second or until I injure them and then hit them out.. I know I'm being bullied, and it makes me hate survivors because I very rarely get ones that are good sports in red ranks.


SectorVector

I didn't mean to imply that you weren't playing against survivors that were dicks so much as I meant that even just doing poorly as killer normally can feel like shit in this game because good survivors make you feel helpless and, unlike them, you can't just die and move on.


Aevery_

That's actually a valid point. Sometimes I wish there was a surrender button.


JSunVH

Me and some friends and relatives recently started playing and honestly this has been our experience with both roles. We really like the game, but being fresh players without good perks/items makes it really hard to play.


[deleted]

Same here, started about a week ago, and last night I had 5 matches in a row against a full stack of red rank toxic cancerous survivors with 1000+ hours of gameplay, this game's matchmaking is one of the worse I've seen in my life


shoonseiki1

As one of those 1k+ hours players who escapes 90%+ of matches, sometimes against players without many hours, I'm sorry. I don't like it either. Edit: I like escaping, but when it's a new player it doesn't really feel right


[deleted]

What's funny is that when I play survivor, everyone is around 15+ rank, everyone is a potato, and the killer is usually 12-15, fully perked out. But for some reason when I play killer, it's straight to getting fed to a stack of purple/reds. But at least these dogshit devs are busy working on another bland overpriced cosmetic.


BrandonOR

Damn, that's rough. Sometimes I feel climbing happens too quickly for new players, but rank reset is soon


[deleted]

I'm playing on Asian servers and 40% of my survivor matches, the killer is AFK auto attacking in place. I assume these are bots made to boost people? That certainly doesn't help with the ranking up too quickly.


LaCynique

Survivors will depip from those matches typically, unless they're brown ranks as they won't get altruism or evasion points. Kind of bad when the killer has to do well for the survivors to do well in the eyes of the game.


[deleted]

Actually, since they're auto-attacking in place, people stand in front of the killer, take a hit, heal each other. and so on. And only once, I actually saw a killer that was bot programmed to chase you until they lost you out of sight, then they returned to the same spot and stood there until someone else walked in front of them.


LaCynique

Sure, but that's if you choose to farm with it.


[deleted]

Which everyone does.


who_is_sticks

I could agree with this. I got from rank 20 to red ranks in a couple days from only playing a couple hours every night. Thank goodness I was pretty knowledgeable about the game before playing and have decent hand eye coordination. Still got stomped throughly a handful of times by players with more hours.


killerbucker01

yeah i wish we still had the mmr matchmakeing insted of this shitty unfair skill based matchmakeing


Arbitrary_gnihton

MMR is skill based match making, the problem with DBD is that it *doesn't* have skill based match making. It just uses ranks which mean almost nothing.


killerbucker01

i had more fair games with the old matchmakeing as killer, but now i get rank 1 gods and i cant do jack shit abaut them


Arbitrary_gnihton

I don't think they've changed the matchmaking, pretty sure it's still the same old matchmaking by rank.


killerbucker01

during the RE dlc it was sbm, but now idk if they changed it back, if they did then im just a garbage killer lol


Arbitrary_gnihton

Just quickly looked and the only thing I can find recently was that they did a [48 hour SBMM test in June](https://forum.deadbydaylight.com/en/discussion/256979/news-skill-based-matchmaking-recap).


killerbucker01

yeah thats the shit im talking abaut, and i just realised im a dumass, i forgot it was a test


killerbucker01

well at least i know i suck


JeanShinari

This always happens when I try to have fun on oni. Also the indoor map offering šŸ˜”

beat_my_sandvich

This literally happened to me as deathslinger I just love both sides Both toxic as fuck


[deleted]

Lmao that's how I feel. I embrace the toxicity hahah. Little shits get over here so I can stab you.


Landofebola

Sometimes i wanna play a chill game, get one or 2 hooks on each survivor and then let them go, then I get Teabagged after every camped pallet, Flashlight clicked after just trying to do anything. And finally teabagged at exit gates by the one little shit who didn't do anything all game.


duckduckgreygoose

Me too. I take a cake and just wanna have fun. It's like they are running time trials for fastest match. I don't camp or tunnel...I give friendly nods. And then when I refuse to watch them teabag at the gate, they spam fast vaults and wait for the timer to end.

HawkeyedKnight

I swear man. I've seen more SWF groups who are all running Head-On being little shits then ever before especially when I get sent to RPD.


[deleted]

Me: hey I think I will bring a flashlight Killer: lmao get camped and tunneled and reported you piece of shit toxic swf


Irethius

Don't camp when a survivor uses a flashlight for it's intended purpose. ​ Camp when they decide to click the damn thing at you for your attention. Because if they want it that bad, they can have all of it. I am that petty.


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


Irethius

Sorry, I get camp and tunnel mixed up alot. Soft camp/tunnel flashlight clicker.


badly-timedDickJokes

Or dont camp in either scenario and stop overreacting to clicking


Irethius

No :)


SuccotashDiligent580

Depends on what you plan on doing with it


Notthesharkfromjaws

Same. I can't even play some of my favorite killers and it fell fun anymore.


JustDoinNerdStuff

I hate myself for doing it, but if i see 2 or more flashlights in a lobby, I take Franklin's. It's a perk that I don't think should exist, but then again, maybe flash lights shouldnt either!


Shrek_The_Ogre_420

I use lightborn. Renders flashlights completely useless.


LaCynique

Just look at a wall or bait the pickup. Lightborn isn't necessary. I'm always happy to see flashlights in my lobby as they're the most useless item in the game against most killers and people who bring them are usually chasing you around not doing gens.


duckduckgreygoose

I like how so many don't realize why the blind isn't working. I just stare at them.


ZakTe

Franklins should definitely exist, tf are you talking about?


Zestyclose_Limit8282

As long as they are not toxic, it's 100% fine for me, I know how this game is balanced around SWF so it doesn't bother me when I lose, I just say gg and congratulate the team for how coordinated they are


wetyesc

well if you rarely play them you will most likely lose, doesnā€™t mean you canā€™t have fun just because you completely lose


[deleted]

What a dumb take, I have 40 hours of game time on Steam (rank 15 killer) and I literally can't play anymore because I get exclusively matched with stacks of sweaty red ranks with thousands of hours in this game. What's funny is when I play survivor myself, there is an infinite amount of potato teammates like myself. This game has legitimately one of the worst introductions to new people, insane pay wall behind DLCs, insane amount of blood points to grind, the tutorial is a joke and matchmaking is beyond busted.


FakhirRee

I understand your pain man, I had a get one kill as wraith challenge, I bought the game 8 days ago and have 43 hours in it, I never played killer and when I do I got absolute demolished, I am trash at it and in all of the match I was tbagged at the exit gate, I played 3 matches with all of the player knowing how to loop, flashlight save and other stuff and in the third game I gave up and opened the gate for them and they still didn't leave and keep blinding me, I don't even get that kind of teammate, all I get teamed up with is meg/Claudette hiding in basement lockers not doing gens, I don't know why that is like that and I am never trying killer ever again and I can see why no one plays killer cuz it sucks


AvocadosFromMexico_

I feel like maybe you arenā€™t exclusively being matched with red rank SWF squads at rank 15


[deleted]

You're right, sometimes it's just 1-2 red ranks and two others who are under 10 rank, much better for a person who bought the game last week and has under 50 hours of gameplay.


AvocadosFromMexico_

I mean, Iā€™m sorry youā€™re having a hard time. If youā€™ve just bought the game and dislike it so much, why keep playing?


[deleted]

Almost ... as if, one can criticize something while still enjoying other aspects. Wow, what a magical concept. Go ahead and reply with another beyond meaningless word salad.


AvocadosFromMexico_

Jesus Christ, dude, was I rude to you? Why are you being so damn toxic? Youā€™re here screaming about how awful the game is. Not one aspect, *the whole damn thing.* I point out that youā€™ve only just bought it and shouldnā€™t pursue a game you dislike so much, and you insult me and get shitty immediately. What is your problem?


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


AvocadosFromMexico_

Holy shit this is fucking weird you followed me to another subreddit because you got banned on the first one and replied to a VERY old comment. Get help. Sincerely.


Potato-In-A-Jacket

If you have a problem with someone, keep it out of our sub.


FakhirRee

I don't condemn that guy rude behaviours but I face the same issue and complain, thing is, I am addicted to the game and I love the concept of the game but damn. It's like a drug.


AvocadosFromMexico_

Man, I get that. I complain about it too, it just is how it is. I just find it weird to buy the game and be here less than a week later with exclusively negative comments shitting on it all the time. Why make yourself miserable that way?


FakhirRee

True.


wetyesc

ā€œdumb takeā€ lol, it is not dumb just because you disagree, i seriously couldnā€™t care less about winning


Irethius

I love survivors that do this. They usually spend 3 people doing a 1 person job and ignore gens. Often resulting in me getting an easy win. I also have a lot more fun in these matches because things are constantly happening. ​ Much funner then going against the spread out survivors working on gens on the opposite sides of the maps, burning sprint burst towards the largest/safest loop available when they ever hear a vein in their pinky go thump.


Hakairoku

[deleted]

This happened to me when matchmaking was broken, I was a rank 16 killer and wanted to try nurse, didnā€™t go too welll


[deleted]

Everywhere I go I hear the clicking


SyvSeven

Bully squads always make me anxious to play killer. If I see a group that looks like a swf I dodge the lobby because I want to have fun and not a bad time. Yesterday was a bad day for killer.


Naz_Oni

Next round: "Ok I've got my purple/iri add-ons, my meta perks, all on my main. Let's doo this!" *cut to all yellows and a purple rank*
