Probably by signing the different players with the most shots and goals, and the best defenders blocking goals, ya know, the players that have displayed the most individual skill, which may not necessarily be on the winning team.

I remember him camping boxes as Pig when you used to be able to force a headpop on one or more survivors by blocking the one and only box the survivors could use to get their headtrap off.
      He then proceeded to spend the entire stream whinging and riling his chat up about how the survivors were "holding the game hostage" because they knew about the strat and were refusing to pop any gens until he gave up trolling and started chasing people. It was the most cringeworthy thing to see, thankfully there were some sane people in chat flaming him for being such a hypocrite.

It was perfectly okay for him to abuse an unintended feature in the game which resulted in boring, non-matches for the other side - but the moment the Survivors started playing him at his own game, they were suddenly the problem and he riled his whole chat up to dunk on the Survivors whenever they came into chat.

      @pokerusfreak8194 25 днів тому +12

      there was a HUGE flaw in this logic to begin with, using a sports analogy and even thinking the way they did in the first place to compare individual MMR ratings to TEAM wins in a team game...
      In sports, TEAMS are rated separately from PLAYERS. You have individual player stats for a reason, stats that teams pay attention to when recruiting players, and also personalities that may or may not mesh well in teams. Sports teams look at ALL of this data to build the best team they can get their hands on, and then ONLY THEN are those teams rated against other teams. If you ignored all of that process and ONLY focused on the end result in sports, you would similarly end up with a terrible player experience and skewed data.
      They attempted to take a system made for individual grading, and applied it to a team game without that process. Other game companies have done this as well, but not in such a simplistic manner, not in such a POOR manner. Even if, at the end of the day, those other games apply an up or down rating based on wins or losses... the systems behind them are more nuanced, more likely to match you with players of a variety of skill levels to constantly test their own system and your skill, more likely to contain checks and balances, the ability to degrade MMR if you dont play, seasonal resets, etc.
      DBD implemented one of the WORST versions of a MMR based matchmaking I have seen in 30+ years of hardcore gaming. They took a complex system, assumed they could oversimplify it based on bad logic, and boiled it down into a horrible player experience.

  • @KichewGaming
    @KichewGaming 25 днів тому +178

    I'd love to see the hook change. If you get penalized for being good at looping (tunneled out), and subsequently go against worse and worse killers (who don't know to go for the weaker link/drop chase), new players, learn that getting kills is the goal, by any means. They get tunnel vision and chase for the whole game, then proxy hook to make sure the survivor dies, if they don't they feel crappy -points/those meaningless metrics, net loss of mmr. Majority of the time when I run a killer for just a single gen, they tunnel me out. I mean I get it, but that's largely due to them being kill hungry and not wanting their mmr to go down/'lose'. A few losses later and now the killer just does not quit, and you can tell they're a baby killer, and it just doesn't feel good, it's basically like the killer bot, i mean they're new and you're 500+hrs what can u expect it's not a challenge. Don't give them a kill, they take that frustration into their next game, maybe basement camp, more fun extinguished. Give them a kill it's just causing another problem. Killers letting hiders live/sparing people push those players where they don't belong, making the higher mmr players have to deal with games where people should not be in. So so so many issues, root of the problem is most likely the kills = + mmr | escapes = - mmr | die = - mmr | escape = + mmr
    Playing killer is not fun when you have to use these boring builds, just to not have the gens be rushed super quickly, or just need super meta perks every single game. I legit feel obligated to run corrupt, dms, grim embrace every game to have time to start the actual interaction and not have it be a hide & seek/gen simulator. And when playing survivor, well, if I want to go up in mmr, most likely a combination of anti-tunnel, distortion/lucky break, lose killer build. Or if I don't care about losing mmr at the time, I'll run a looping build, but it's so stale either way. dh, ds, sw, bond. Feeling like I need kindred every game or my 1st hook is my 2nd. A thousand plus essay could not likely fully describe every issue that is caused by the metrics they are using.

      If you are aware of this, and feel like still tunneling to get kills by any means, instead of thinking about it and taking a diferent aproach, then you are aware of the issue and choosing to keep doing it of your own will.
      Also, i have to say, i've seen that huntress build a lot in my matches, and i've yet to see one get actual use from it beyond placebo. It's more of a meme, specially if anyone has distorssion, off the record or shadowstep.

      i'll say this though, sometimes i purposefuly go for that chase just to see if i can beat them lol. it helps to get better. but i get your point, it's true that they should drop earlier if they actually want to win.
      i have some mixed feelings about tunneling the weak one out though...like, tunneling, wether it's the weak or the strong one, shouldn't really be encouraged. what's the point in that meg playing if she gets to load in and just hang on one hook after another, it doesn't actually teach anything without external help and some actual time to put it into practice (and survivors can't practice on their own on custom matches, which only makes it worse if they want to try out a perk or a loop etc).
      I am aware that it is the strongest strategy, but it leaves a sour taste, and as a killer i just feel like i'm bullying a new player out of the game honestly. Bringing grim embrace has helped me win my games while spreading hooks at least for the first 3 hooks without losing all gens, i like perks like that, i wish there were more. Technically pain res should encourage something similar, but it's way less impactful in stopping tunneling, there's no "big reward" at four hooks like with grim embrace, and with the rng of hook placement and unpredictable factors like sabo, make it so you can't reliably count on something "good" coming out of spreading your downs.
      Only grim embrace genuinly encourages you to....please, more perks like that...

Either the survivors take their time crouch walking to basement to save, or disarm the drones which alerts me that they are going for the unhook.
    The add-on that makes the drone rotation speed faster, and increases the hinderance by another 3% really hurts.

And from a "Can other players exploit this against me?" Perspective that only the players have, developers live in a bubble of thinking players will play the way they want them to but that's just not how online multiplayer games work, ever.

      It’s basic psychology. The moment someone measures a single metric in a society the society learns to game the system.
      For instance in the 1980s several hospitals decided to measure the ranking of surgeons by the success rate of their surgeries. Those with higher rankings got better pay. Which makes sense right? Those who have the most successful surgeries would be the most skillful thus deserving of higher pay.
      However as you can probably tell it didn't work out well. Easier and cheaper surgery was flooded with surgeons while more difficult expensive surgery like brain or spinal were abondoned. The hospitals lost money and talent and patients with curable but difficult conditions died. Many hospitals who invested in this idea did not drop it until the early 00s

However if you run the killer, do a Gen, save a teammate, stealth past a killer, heal a teammate, take a protection hit for a teammate you'd get 4 pips even if you sacrificed yourself to save the rest of the team. And as killer you could camp and secure a kill but likely loose a pip vs finding survivors, breaking destructables, getting a grab, kicking gens, using your killer power, hooking survivors, going after fresh meat, finishing a chase quickly and even if all four escaped you'd have full pips.
      Every single person no matter what seeks to optimize their life to require the shortest process for the greatest progress. However dbd has an opportunity to learn from the best games whom have made playing suboptimal the optimal. Devil may cry is an er example. If you want to beat the game hitless it isn't too difficult. Most mooks in the game can be taken out with little risk. However a large facet of dmc is a ranking system that uses the other sub optimal moves to increase your score and the risk of messing up in the game.

    In my opinion, the answer of "Hooks vs. Kills" should really be a bit of both. A kill is more impressive than a hook, even if it took only one hook to get that kill. However, a kill which took three hooks should reward more to the player's skill than a kill which took only one hook. I suppose a good way to summarize it would be to make points system where each hook and kill are one point. Under this system, a 4k with 4 hooks would be worth 8 points, one for each hook and kill. This is equivalent to a 0k with 8 hooks which also gives you 8 points. With the max number of points being 16, I'd consider 8 points to be the plateau point where you neither gain nor lose mmr. Obviously this is a very rough explanation which hasn't been properly tested, and I don't think this would necessarily stop killers from using lame strategies, but it would heavily reward those who played in more fun ways and succeeded.

    Patrick said "skilled players take more shots which lead to goals" which is in his mind.."skill." But taking shots are the action point of hockey. The main focus. What would that crucial action equal in the world of dbd? Looping and distracting killer so others can progress to 5 gens completed or chasing survivors and utilizing your power effectively in chase. So in other words..even in his own analogy.. looping and chasing is essentially the "taking the shot" game play of dbd anyways which if anything, is the part a player needs to learn and improve on the most anyways and therefore shows the most amount of skill for most scenarios in DBD. Something that is very hard to tell just from escape or sacrificed

    I stopped playing Dead by Daylight a while ago because I foresaw this nonsense. Having a game (that already has a very competitive playerbase already) have matchmaking and developer-encouraged playstyles that highly encourage going for kills and not playing through hookstages and chases, the game becomes extremely boring and toxic. I played like 6-10 matches on every killer, at relatively high mmr (been stuck since the change to SBMM), and each game played out extremely similar. The survivors were prepared to never give me a hook, whilst speeding through gens and effectively cooperating until they left the exit gate. I got a kill or two here and there, but a lot of the games where I played with the mentality of going for chases, and playing the long and older playstyle of DBD brought little to no actual results, in accordance to SBMM. Why is it that I don't get rewarded for having fun, and I get rewarded for playing a very boring game of "kick the gen" (which you can't do anymore, since they made a limit to the amount of times you can kick a gen before it blocks all regression attempts)? The dev team won't ever change now. Changing the game now would only mean that they were not right about their game from the start. And don't you dare tell them that they don't know their game either, because that's not "exemplary behaviour".
    Also, the fact that he simply quoted Patrick, and everybody replying to his tweet was the reason that Dowsey got his stuff removed was the dumbest thing, ever. Not even a civil discussion nor even asking the community what they thought, just going live on stream and telling people that how they have been playing the game was wrong.

      you know, i agree with you, though as a sidenote, whenever someone talks confidently about their mmr being high, i raise an eyebrow since it's a number you can't neither confirm nor deny. i can say right here i'm number one worlwide and you cannot prove me wrong and i cannot show any evidence either lol. I feel like anyone who isn't newish or particularly humble will say they are "high mmr" wjen that can mean anything from mid road decent to actual god, but that mmr braket in practice in the game has a super low ceiling were you no longer get any changes on who you go against, and you can't actually know which braket you are in either, besides being outside of the one reserved for zero hours players.
      so you have the decently good, the great, the masters and the gods all mixed in one braket lol, and none of them have any reciepts to prove one way or another. Not even that they are indeed in that braket. hell, not even going against someone who's a figure means much, since the game prioritizes queue time, and as i said, beyond the one braket reserved for new players, there are only two other brakets....and i insist, you don't even get to see where exactly you are at either lol-
      On top of that, when people say "high mmr" do they mean they get a lot of kills/escapes? or that they feel that they play in a "skill expressive manner"? or do they make a mental mixture of both?
      But there's also a contradiction in your own statement, losing 1 to 10 matches on several killers means what, at least 40 losses if you played four killers? by definition you won't be at a "reasonably high mmr" by doing that, you'll tank, even if you feel like you are high mmr because of the skill/efficiency your survivors are showing. And what do you mean by a loss? because the only thing counting as a loss for a killer is gettin 0 or 1 kill. a draw is 2 kills, for mmr purposes. it counts as a draw for the killer's mmr. 3 is a win, and 4 is the bigger win of course. But i see most killers if not all, treating a 2k as a loss, which, it may FEEL like that, but if we are talking mmr, it isn't, it's a net neutral.
      I don't know, i just feel like any statements made about mmr that involve assuming which level you are at or you are going against, are very questionable, for multiple reasons, i just listed some of them.

    Never have I seen a game with developers so out of touch with their product. They wanted this game to be hide and seek and players showed how important chasing was and how that was the fun of the game and balance changes were made. This game should be balanced around kills AND hooks. Cause 1 hook = 1 chase won by the killer. If you needed more than 4 hooks, if hooking each survivor once was more important than tunneling someone out quickly, if you balance the game around killers being forced to go for chases and needing to pick differing targets, you make things more skillful and I'd argue more fun overall. Tru3 doesn't always have good takes, but he has been advocating with hooks being the killer win condition and has forever been right about it.

  • @hehehe88
    @hehehe88 25 днів тому +3

    I don't know if this would fix things.
    I don't think hooks are a "Middleman", they are just kills of a different kind. 3 hooks equal a kill, but the reverse is true too; one kill equals 3 hooks, as we can see in the Michael footage. In fact, EVERYTHING you showed in Experiment.mp4, revolved around getting hooks.
    If you mean to say the act of hooking itself; where does that leave killers like pyramid head? where does that leave moris, and perks or set-ups that let you kill the survivor outright, like Devour Hope? Where does that leave people that kill themselves on hook on the killer? If 4 players do that in a game, that means the killer only got 4 actions of hooking a survivor? does THAT mean that they aren't skilled? Should that count against the killer then?
    This feels like an incomplete argument. This is not invalidating the other side of it, but more a point that i don't think it's as easy as "Hooks=skill". I genuinely don't think this game should have ever been competitively minded; as someone there the first day it came out, have spent my time with it, and have kept up with it even if i wasn't actively playing, I still don't see the merit into forcing it to be what it never was; competitive.

    One question the community needs to answer with hooks vs kills is what do they want a balanced hook game to be.
    If you still want 2 kills with hooks then a balanced game is anywhere between 6 or 10 hooks, however only 2 survivors get targetted. Ideally you would want a 10 hook game where everyone interacts with everyone.
    So they would need to add a proper anti tunnel.
    I would even make it such that survivors share hook states. Once the killer gets 8 hooks the next hook is a kill. Meaning if the killer wants to tunnel they would have to hook that survivor 8 times just to kill them.
    Now we have a game where the killer is strong but has to play "fair", and the survivors have the strategies to deal with this built in. I think people would prefer 10 hook 2 kill games rather than 6 hook 2 kill games.
    Of course the devs would have to either A. Buff killers or B. Nerf loops a bit such that killer can actually get 10 hooks in the time it takes for 5 gens and the exit gate.
    As currently we can all talk from experience that against equally skilled players you often don't get the time to get 10 hooke unless you stall the game a ton (which again leads to unfun stuff)

    • @adaminflux
      @adaminflux 25 днів тому +3

      The issue here is that let’s say the killer tunnels one person down 8 times, the next survivor goes down once and instantly dies with zero consent in this. And it doesn’t even factor in moris or slugging. No other PvP game forces random players to share a pool of limited lives-for good reason.

      The answer is in the game alredy, 12 hooks gives a HUGE amount of BP (to both sides because these games wont be done in under 5 minutes). I would vote for 12 hook target, maybe you wont get it too often, but so is 4k not meant to be a regular thing whith the hatch spawning. It doesnt advocate tunneling or camping, doesnt advocate 3-genning. It would solve much of the sweatyness that BHVR has teached killer players and probably also swap over to survivors because most people actually do play both sides, the loud minority is caught in all the tribalism.

    I only play killer. Actually 0 minutes survivor.
    Been playing since before Nurse's release.
    My favorite playstyle has turned into a "kills" playstyle, but not for a decisive victory or mmr or whatever. It's for one single goal: Moris.
    I play nearly every match with my sole intention to directly kill survivors with Rancor, or their built-in direct kill like Pig trap, Pyramid Head execute, or Onryo heart attack.
    I worry only about the first hook on each survivor, meaning everyone gets a chance to run around with me at least once, and then after everyone's been hooked once, it's anything goes until Endgame. For me, Endgame is prime time and when the match REALLY begins.
    My build on all killers is:
    No Way Out.
    Game Afoot.
    Rancor.
    Lightborn (or otherwise a variable perkslot available for any other perk)
    This rewards me for skilled play in downing each survivor, and rewards further for doing so quickly. The less I chase any individual survivor, the easier it is to change obsession in Endgame and force a direct kill with Rancor. The more first hooks I get, the more time I have to work with to potentially get more than one Rancor.
    On average, it's a little more than two a game if hook kills are completely forgotten about. Sometimes it's one or even none, and rarely it's a full four mori game.
    It's super fun to play this way, and I recommend it.

This would transfer the game into a more arcade variant so we should have some community research first, see if folks would like it. But imagine this, this system calculats everything, the power level of the killer and addons, if you survive in chase long without dropping pallets, etc and then you get rewarded with buffs or pallet respawn ability. On the killer side, depending on performance you could get the ability to insta mori, etc. We need to start testing random fun ideas.

      Most killer mains agree with the devs. They will do the same shhh then be like, I won, I got a 3-4 K, what did you do?
      Ummm I looped you for 4 gens….
      But I have NOED and rancor and got 3K so obviously I’m more skilled than you all. Gg ez 🤓.

    This was a very good analysis. When I play survivor I most often play against killers with the Kills = Skills mindset who do everything in their power to get a 4K. When I play killer I don't tunnel/slug/camp. I hook someone, maybe come back to hook of they unhooked quickly, and down the next person. In the end I accept whatever the outcome is. And interestingly enough: I made it to iridescend ranks in a pretty short amount of time, even though I'm not a killer main nor extremely skilled! Now in iri ranks i don't get rewarded for that playstyle. I rarely even get two kills.
    What I'm trying to say is: the game is fun when both sides are having fun.

    I said it back then and I’ll say it again now; Chaos is much funner than having to “sweat” every game. They need to remove it (MMR/SBMM) altogether.

    This is literally the best video I have ever seen in regards to dead by daylight. I was there through all of these things, and seeing it wrapped up in such a great story format. I might start playing again, simply because now I feel hope for the games future!

    Are people ignoring all of the QoL stuff that's been added in the past two years. I undserstand the devs can be quite braindead a decent part of the time, but all of this stuff that's being talked about is from years ago, like it's 2024, stewing and seething for stuff from years ago does more harm than good and prevents people from personal growth.

      Agreed. Like we had seperate game modes
      Twisted Masquerade mode was essentially casual mode

      The video still stands. As of now skill=kills=winner.
      Most killer mains agree with the devs and hate what this far man in the. Ideo had to say when he said those things.
      They will do the same shhh then be like, I won, I got a 3-4 K, what did you do?
      Ummm I looped you for 4 gens….
      But I have NOED and tunneled and got 4K so obviously I’m more skilled than you all. Gg ez 🤓.

    In my opinion, Dowsey deserved to have his Twitch shirt taken from him. All of the kills = skills jokes he made felt like he was personally attacking Patrick for what he said. I know the things Patrick said were unprofessional and pathetic, but going the length of making videos targeting him without giving actual criticism is worse. I know Dowsey made a video criticising him on it, and that is fine, but all the follow-up videos were that he joked about it and flat out watched a hockey game and said, "This is some good dbd games right here" went too far. I know I'm gonna get shit for this, but again, this is just my opinion, and if you disagree, that's fine.

      @NameIsDoc that's fair, but Dowsey making those joke videos didn't really solve anything and made the whole situation worse, in my opinion.

      @@GamingGastly well the video makes it seem like it is an immediate kind of thing. It was actually several weeks after he had lost his twitch shirt and he had tried to get it back through various ways, including talking to individuals that were involved in the fog whisperer program. It was actually a far more controversial thing as there is several individuals who were doing all kinds of just nasty things and inappropriate behaviors, but it wasdowsey who was pretty much the first person to get their T-shirt taken away all because he had tweeted the thing that thel developer without any manipulations or commentary
