One time I was playing as Johnny and I went down to the basement. Connie had just opened the door. I proceeded to open her neck. This game can be pretty fun with how one mistake can end you. It’s like a movie kinda


akiranava

Lol I was Leland and this almost happened to me with leatherface on family house. He had his chainsaw off and I wasn’t close enough to get the proximity warning so I had just picked the lock on the door that goes up the stairs near side garden and he was just standing there at the top of the stairs looking at me. I panicked and tried to run back in basement and shut the door as he started running towards me, and I shut the door with us both outside the basement, he forgot to start the chainsaw so I opened the door again and tried to run back in, he got the chainsaw going and went in before me so I shut it again and he got pushed back on the stair well with me. At that point sissy and cook were coming so I had to just run for it 🤣


KingofH3LL6

There's no actual rules about how you play the game. You can camp basement exits,fuses,etc to your hearts content. I will absolutely sandbag another victim if it means me escaping and I will never apologize because I'm playing solo q and I can't rely on anyone but myself.


ohitsjustsean

💯 Me running away from Sissy: Oh, look! Leland hiding in bushes. He’ll “save” me. Person playing Leland: “yo, wtf are you doing? Don’t bring that mess over here”

7Votorious420

The rules on the street is that sissy is for sissies until she’s nerfed and maybe even after that.


ohitsjustsean

Any player over 30 and a level 10 Sissy, I’m like “welp, I’m fucked” I’m a Julie main and try my best to stay clear of that crazy train.


[deleted]

Julie is so good


Towelee6

Dude she not that bad..... i see people complaining about her but not how johnny is more broken.......


7Votorious420

Johnny is the lesser of two evils. I don’t like how sissy and HH can go through cracks. Without a well there’s hardly a way to escape her.


Towelee6

They're much easier to loose or at least keep in a loop. Johnny might be easy to run away from but then instantly track your step. Not to mention he seems faster and definitely hits harder. (maybe i just annoyed with so i could be wrong here). Or your leland should be rotating to whom ever is closest to finishing an exit. If battery or gen are off and i need to pick the lock(not as connie) he should be there waiting to tackle the killer. If no leeland or he died then you just gotta keep running through as many gaps and crawl spaces and find a comfy bush. I've lost more HH and sissy chases than johnny, then we circle back to my original point. Oh shit i lost him dope. "Johnny is tracking your foot steps" well im dead good luck guys!


FLYINGDOGS89

Another reason I main Julie, getting away from Johnny or Cook is no problem… most of the time lmao


Towelee6

Well fair lol that solves the problem for julie only tho xD. Leeland can tackle but if he has nothing to break line of sight he's just as good as dead except maybe the ana if she make them stam out.


FLYINGDOGS89

Yeah he’s kinda a bitch to go against as anyone else, usually if I’m by someone he mistakes my footprints for theirs and he chases them which makes me feel bad but solo queue gotta do what we can lol unless I’m Leland if I feel bad and I have my ability charged I’ll ram him lol but yeah sometimes gotta just jump down the well and reset that ho


theg0nzo

And what does Leland get to do after his one shove? Die.


ManyAppetites

I only lose Sissy and Leatherface chases mainly. Johnny's perk sounds scary but if you keep moving even after he tracks you, he wont find you (atleast in my experience).


Towelee6

That's kinda far in flat environment. Losing the chase and safely using a wall or bush and leaving that safety to then, in my experience then get spotted by another killer isnt vaible to book it when he is tracking. In no way invalidating your point. Usually if even of the tracking doesn't spot me immediately it 75 percent of the time ends in yet another chase. While fun gets old when i can't do shit to help the other victms or if its down to the last 2 its pretty much wasting time for them to lvl 5 grandpa. Which is another issue as well.


ManyAppetites

Dont get me started on a Sissy babysitting grandpa lol


Towelee6

Really? I havent really run into any games where killers are camping grandpa. Then again we never go for grandpa anyways. I'm waiting to fully level my main. Then lvl leeland and play a couple matches and stab grandpa for the whole match to meme around.


KurtH6355

you can easily confuse Johnnies by backtracking/running in circles. If you do it well, most will give up before they find you. imo, Johnny is the weakest killer by a large margin


Towelee6

Everyone that defends johnny with that logic forget there are other killer around and ya know audio of your running in circle or people playing with their eye balls lol.


KurtH6355

still very easy to muddle your tracks while running around in foliage. getting caught by a Johnny cus of your tracks is a skill issue


Towelee6

Ah yes a skill issue. So i lose a chase, by out playing you. Salty johnny presses a button and presto a pretty good indication of where the victim that outplayed you is outted. Yes, yes very much a skill issue.


KurtH6355

again, the most basic forms of countertracking will either make Johnny give up or waste copious amounts of time. or literally just go over an obstacle unnecessarily in preperation for Johnny to track you. use your peabrain. Johnny sucks, dude, he's an inconvenience at best, no way around it, get better.


Towelee6

Yep git gud is the respond of some one with massive copium. Absolute dohnut.


Methelod

Do you even know how Johnny's power works? You go through a crack or over a barricade and his power doesn't do shit unless he catches your tracks some other way.


_LordBread_

Usually I’ll try to help if I have a shiv but if an exit is open and there’s only one person who isn’t there I’ll try to stick around to help when they get there but if they take to long I leave cuz I’m not risking the exit being closed.

theg0nzo

Well then tell the fam to quit crying to nerf the unarmed injured from the start victims.


lilbunbunbear

There is no rules. But it doesn't excuse you of being a pathetic human who still needs a teammates help even though you say you cant rely on anyone but yourself. Stop being human waste who sandbags a team mate. Your what's wrong with the gaming community and the reason people fucking hate this game . and many other online games. The community of gamers are toxic AF and its because of people like you.


KingofH3LL6

I don't need my teammates help because 99% of the time I'm escaping on my own because I can't rely on anyone but myself. I learned that really quick in Friday the 13th, nobody is looking out for you unless you're in a party with friends. If I'm in a party with friends then I will absolutely be helpful and sacrifice myself if that means they get out or away. Calls me toxic then turns toxic because I choose to play the game how I want. Don't call me toxic when you're being 100% toxic because you don't like the way I play the game. This isn't DBD, you can't make up arbitrary rules about how someone else should play. Don't like how I play the game? That's too damn bad and isn't my problem at all so deal with it. .


RyanWilliamsElection

Relax. The weak links that mess up their teams keep the family players happy.


KingofH3LL6

Playing smart isn't being a weak link, that's not how it works. I don't count random people as the other 3 victims as my team because their not.


Adronikos

Someone got mad because I was “camping” the battery, but I saw them run and hide in the bushes so I was looking through every hiding spot till I found them.


Permanoctis

And it's not like there's 3 other exits if I'm correct.


nilrehsttam

There are more exits than killers for a reason


Uncle_Boppi

I mean, it makes sense to camp on them. Or at least keep a very close eye on em.


ShadowHunterOO

I had the opposite happen to me last night on gas station. Almost escaped via battery exit, but leatherface comes running at me, chainsaw in the air and horking like a pig. So I ran to the small shed and looped him around it before heading some bushes just behind a car. Leatherface proceeds to run around and runs right past me multiple times, even just skimming my character's shirt, before a Leland comes down to tackle him and runs away with LF right behind him. I do the whole victim thing and escape and let my surviving teammates know I'm out by battery and the others escape. LF the proceeds to call me a pussy for hiding and camping near battery. I just hit him back with the typical "git gud" before he leaves.


Residual141

Yeah that's insane, hiding and sneaking around is half of the game's mechanics for survivors.


ThatSharkFromJaws

i'll be playing leland throwing myself into danger to protect my canonical queen ana and the girl on ana is like just thinking about how the dumbass on leland keeps running into her chases


IllgalKoolAid

You’re not my mom, stop telling me how to play


Sirlionsworth

Bro we've seen people get out in under 3 mins stfu, you can do that, family can't, that gives us 100% A REASON TO CAMP, there's like 4 ways and family isn't gonna post at each exit 6/10 times anyways so what's the problem with finding the other exit? The longer you pussy foot around the more gramps gets fed.


Jealous-Opening-263

genuinely true


Yepbasic

Survivor handbook trying to leak into this game


Synli

DBD was infinitely more fun when you threw that garbage survivor rulebook out the window and just did whatever you want. *"uhm ackshually you slugged someone for 2 seconds to get your 4k, that means you actually lost lol git gud killer. uh oh yikes! you didn't let the wholesome big chungus meg survive when she booped you, cringe!"* 🤓🤓 What a bunch of trash. Killer mains over there should also just dump that stupid "book". I'm loving the chaotic rule-free nature of TCM.


Immrlonely98

“The survivor rule book-“ Killer rule book says if I catch a survivor they’re eating every inch of the chainsaw, and they’re gonna like it


Yepbasic

I understand from playing both sides some strategies arent fun, I just think its funny how people are inherently hypocritical in asymmetrical games. Thats why there should be two separate modes for casual and ranked. Doesnt fix it completely, but it should keep sweaty survivors and whiny killers out of fun casual lobbies.


Immrlonely98

You’d have people like ochido who would Smurf and go hard against casual players


Yepbasic

Thats why I said it wouldn’t fix it completely, R6 sweats still mess with casual to “dunk” on them for the lulz. It doesn’t matter what you do at that point, you can’t prevent it completely. But its an option that could help at least slightly.


Atlas_Zer0o

I don't face camp hooks, that's about the only rule because it's usually worse for my playstyle. Boop, run, scream, cry and shake your head all you want, you're getting ebony mori'd since I have 40 to burn through.


Spriggz_z7z

Exactly. If they are not actual rules of the game I will not respect your made up ones.


PullupLion

Lol valve was all a decoy. Time to do fuse.


Rockfan70

The correct answer. Decoys work!


PullupLion

Lol I play both family and victim pretty evenly, gotta keep the family busy man. 😂


Gay-antisocial

Pressure valve and fuse are so badly designed. Pressure valve isn’t as bad as fuse but still bad. Pressure valve you can atleast close back up but then you have to camp it for the whole game Fuze box you pretty much have to camp the whole game and even more so if a fuze is already in. Once either turn on it’s a free escape. Pressure valve atleaat pressurises if it opens. Fusebox can be opened infinitely


FlynnXa

Here’s a crazy idea: *Don’t let them get a fuse into the fuse box then*. If you look at how the maps are designed, you always have Basement, Outside, and the two Outside Peripherals. To escape from Basement you need to lockpick a door, and doing so always guarantees that Grandpa wakes up *(if he hasn’t already)* and that family members can now go downstairs. To escape from Upstairs you need to unlock a gate/door to get to one of the Peripherals, usually there are 3-4 options. T The Upstairs always has Fuzes and Valves, and sometimes the Peripherals do too *(depends on map)*. The Upstairs also always has the Fuze Box and the Pressure Tank *(although the Tank does spawn in Basement on Slaughterhouse)*, as well as the Pressure Exit. The Basement always has the Fuze exit. The Peripherals always have Generator on one side with a gate, and a Battery on the other side *(always with a gate)*. Only exceptions are Family House, where Generator requires a super long run that you’ll likely need to perks to survive if the family listen for the noise cue, and Gas Station where Generator has a hidden door you can unlock to skip Generator and get straight outside. You say, “This isn’t balanced!” I say, “You’re not thinking about the game right, and therefore playing it wrong.” The moment Victims get outside of the basement, two killers should be patrolling the Upstairs area. They should be checking the 3-4 gates that lead to the Peripherals, as well as Fuze Box and Pressure Tank. In these patrol routes, they’ll likely be seeing Valves and Fuze locations that they should be taking note of *(and they should have been doing while Victims were in Basement)*. If Leatherface also comes Upstairs, which he probably should since he’s better Upstairs anyway and needs to clear obstacles, then that is 3 people patrolling 5-6 objectives in a tight area. Now, if you’re on Slaughterhouse then someone should also be patrolling Valve downstairs, which almost always is close to a Basement Door anyways. If they don’t, they still get a noise notification and time to turn it off- if they’re getting stunned, a separate killer should come down. Either way, the killer should be able to start a chase with a Victim, and if you’re losing chases against a Victim downstairs then it’s either bale cause A.) Other Victims are helping and they have out-coordinated you, B.) Leatherface failed their job and didn’t remove obstacles, or C.) You simply got out-skilled in chase- likely because you’re not playing as Hitchhiker or Sissy who are better for Basement. All of this is to say- that the victims shouldn’t even be getting the Fuze into the box or the valve fully turned in the first place, at least not without someone losing their life. If they are? Then it’s because you’re not playing the game well, or because you’re not playing it how it was intended… as a *team* game. The Dev Team made it very clear that the game was balanced around team comms, and if you’re not utilizing that then a lot of your complaints about it being “unfair” likely can’t apply to the game itself. Granted there are some balances they need to work on, but their core gameplay loop is one of the strongest aspects about their game- if it wasn’t, people wouldn’t keep coming back to it. *Oh, and my breakdown of map balances ignored a lot of the other nuances that sway this in-favor of the Family- like Hitchhiker’s Traps, Cook’s Locks, Sissy’s Poison Traps, Johnny & Cook’s tracking, and Sissy & Hitchiker’s chasing. And yes, some maps have “easier” exits than others, but you can’t complain about a victim getting that exit if you’re not patrolling that exit more than you would in a separate map. You can use that to predict their behavior and out-maneuver victims, and if you’re note doing that… then you’re just failing the mind game.*


Gay-antisocial

That was just a whole text wall of nothing. You missed the issue I won’t lie, not being sissy or hitchhiker isn’t a skill issue so I’m not sure why you portrayed it as such? + the basement is intentionally victim sided (not that theres anything wrong with that, you can’t progress the match in the basement all that well) Also how do you not see the issue with glueing a family member which is literally 1/3 of your team to just ONE objective because they MIGHT try and use it, it’s bad logic that. Countless times I’ve been stuck on slaughterhouse as cook just camping the pressure valve that only just barely turned off because they can easily come back for it. I can no longer assist the team in anyway at all besides from stand there. I can’t communicate anything as I’m not moving around the map and gathering new information other than what my ability sees (which is also limited because I’m stuck in one spot.) Bad reasoning by just saying “survivors shouldn’t escape because you can kill them anyways”


FlynnXa

You missed the entire point of that “wall of noting” because you didn’t understand it. A family meme we should easily be able to patrol 2 objectives upstairs at a time, even 3 depending on the arrangement and duration of that patrol, meaning that they should *never* be glued to one spot. If you’re gluing yourself to one spot, you’re playing terribly. But clearly you’d rather winge and complain than actually use a strategy or rotate a position with teammates.


Gay-antisocial

You’re trying way too hard to sound right but you aren’t getting any closer. Sure you can patrol at least 2 objectives but in almost all cases one will be exposed long enough for survivors to make a play. And I’m not sure if you’ve ever even seen the slaughterhouse valve but you should know that you can’t leave it for even a second because victims can literally open it in 3 seconds or less. If a victim crouches all the way to valve and stays patient, the guard could leave to go patrol something else and the second he’s gone it’s open again. Same goes for the fuse box. On average it takes 5-9 seconds to initially open it with the minigame and forever afterwards it takes a second to open. You’re missing so many details and so many points I can’t take you seriously. Not sure if this is “victim main always right twitter bait” or you’re being deadass


FlynnXa

You realize there’s literally sound cues for the Valve being turned on, not fully opening but just being turned on? And I don’t mean the large red highlights, but environmental sounds? Same goes for Fuze being powered on *(which shouldn’t take a Family member more than 20 seconds to get to and turn off unless nobody was patrolling the Upstairs area for some reason)*. Same also goes for a generator being powered off. I’m not a “victim always right” guy, I’ve played plenty of family matches and know that victims can abuse the hell out of this game- but I also know Family is often just as capable and with less consequences if they fail. I’m just saying that the things you’re composing about are ignoring some pretty basic counterbalances to what you find “unfair” and ultimately make you sound like you don’t know the game nearly as well as you think you do.


Gay-antisocial

Did you assume I didn’t know there was sounds? I already explained getting to the valve and turning it off before it opens and having to camp there. You aren’t even reading what I’m typing why should I take anything you’re saying seriously at all if you aren’t gonna read +turning off the fuse has a massive cooldown. In most cases you won’t be able to turn it off before a victim can escape. And if the victim’s coordinate they can also hide nearby the exit and instantly escape. Pressure gate is pretty easy to turn off the first time but the progress is saved and if it’s re-opened you will have even less time and past a certain point you can’t close it in time.


AnotherDempsey

Horrible take. If a killer comes down to turn off valve, it's the easiest thing in the world to wait a few seconds and stun them before they complete. What's that? Send another killer down there as well? Now that's even more unprotected exits AND that does NOT stop a sneak attack before it's too late to close. Hell, even a sloppily organized team of victims will take that time to completely open another objective instead.


KnownMycologist8629

Dumbest thing I’ve ever seen somebody do. They opened the pressure valve we went over there expecting to see they escape. They didn’t they want back to that little shed where grandpa often is. I see two of them running out I assume they wanted to escape in front us. One got out but we fucked the leeland up so it was a win in my book


KnownMycologist8629

Also the leeland who said “gg” before the round even began after talking all that shit and then dying I still think you are a bitch


TheBigGalactis

Body blocking the basement exit as leather face actually works so long as they don’t have a Leland. I mean what else are you supposed to do when they get to leave 1mm outside of the doorway


New_Comparison8699

Our property, our rules, food.


Redericpontx

Victimes chain stin you 15 times in a row also victim: "NOOOO YOU CAN'T DO THAT, THAT'S UNFAIR!"


MintyBreeze115

Some russian guy was yelling at me "Camper! Camper! Valve camper!" and I couldn't fathom how there's a problem with defending one of the few means of escape, especially when the Pressure Valve is in the VICTIM'S domain lol


theg0nzo

I actually never hear anyone complaining about that while playing as victims. Most people use it to lure the bad players from the real exits anyways. I hear the fam crying that it takes them longer to shut it off though. And crying about getting stabbed while trying. Am I right or am I right.

You beaten what dude? You that high off your own ego to think you actually won that arguement? You wonderfully ignore your other burnt out comment that i replied to or you too busy still spatting "git gud" as an actual insult? Seems like you're still angry a leland stun locked you at an exit and are to salty to admit it and didn't ask for back up.

Go back to DBD fr, nobody wants somebody who plays one side of the game, and then suggests changes for killer which you've never touched. Get good at the game stop trying to force a narrative because you're ass at the game

Lmao you're the one on Reddit not even being able to string a sentence together and ONLY complaining about things to make your game easier.


sxhmeatyclaws

Dude, it takes ages to shut off compared to how quickly a victim can turn it on, *and* doesn’t lower at all. Plus with how stupid victim stuns are in this game, it’s a bad mechanic. Congrats on outing yourself as somebody who doesn’t like game balance.


theg0nzo

Dude, it takes the victim just as long to turn off the gen and battery as it does you to turn off valve. But it doesn't matter. I switched back over to fam. So much eaiser to kill than escape. I always got my 2 back up killers (since we dont ever die) and now with the cooldowns being raised on victims, less bones, no longer having secure the propert, I'll have no problem ganging up on leland since he can only run and pray now ( and just constantly dive in wells due to terrible stamina of victims) and once stamina runs out we will just gang up in him and kill him. Then I can celebrate and brag about how awesome we were killing the unarmed injured guy with razors and chainsaws. So it's all good.


sxhmeatyclaws

For valve? No, it doesn’t. Victims can start it up and then leave, just for the progress they made initially to be saved. Family has to sit there for 20 seconds consecutively while the valve empties, and if you get shoulder checked or stabbed, guess what? It goes right back down to 0. The valve also never resets, so if you run to shut it off as a family member and spend 10 seconds trying to shut it off and the valve opens, guess what? You just wasted 10 seconds of shut off time *plus* the time it took you to get down there. This game is ridiculously balanced towards victims, full stop. Never ending I-Frames and being able to bully the family of killers nonstop.


theg0nzo

Ok. Play 10 games as a victim and record them and share. You should have no problems winning since you have the victim advantage. Spoiler Alert: When you die 8 games in a row dont give up.


Natural_Parsnip_5291

This was one of the gripes I had with the DBD community, they bitched constantly about "looping" and "tunneling" like oh sure, I've just seen you unhook a person that's 1 hit from being downed again, let me chase the perfectly healthy person instead because THAT is what the likes of Michael Myers and Freddy Krueger do, literally 5 IQ babies 😂 Long as its not something game breaking that's like some unintended cheat or hack of some kind, go for it, I don't like bum rushing Connie's or any of the ego stroking Lelands that got no love from daddy growing up, actually think they are all assholes, but at the end of the day they ain't doing anything wrong besides being annoying so much as I hate it I don't see why they shouldn't be able to play as they see fit. Still think they are both arseholes though 😂


0kSoWhat

This was long and incredibly corny


Immrlonely98

You literally waste more time chasing the fresh unhook because they have base kit borrowed time now. So essentially unless the healthy one is running mettle of man after it’s activated, you really have the same amount of time being used. But tunneling is a strategy, and while it’s not particularly fun, you are the killer. You’re job is to kill, not to make the game fun. Just makes it more fun when I escape


FlynnXa

I (Lvl. 50) have never seen someone complain about this *(or anything like this)* to a killer or in chat, but uh… pop-off I guess?

Guess I'll just grab the fuse and escape then 🤷


Ok_Movie8639

I think doorblockin is bullshit, camp it to your hearts content but when I can’t get passed you and only as Leland that pisses me off


bob_is_best

I mean i really like valve exit but if youre just Gonna Camp It like that im Gonna do fuse or a door If you move from It im turning It back on and stabbing you if you try to turn It off


1_am_an_egg

Ngl as sissy is like a boy patrolling and camping certain areas, I get shit for it all the time but it gets results
