So yes I’ve been playing more killer in DbD because of the supposed “buffs” and because of the summer event (and miraculously, I got to rank 10 in the last hours of the season). But tbh. It’s still boring. Because loopers are everywhere and there is still no proper counter for pallet looping. The only valid thing to do is to never break the chase and just take the loop but that’s so BORING. 99% of the time you encounter teams where at least half of them are hardcore loopers and when you know you’re getting into another boring chase, you just take a deep sigh and immediately lose all the fun. It’s repetitive and just utterly, desperately boring.
I mean this is why killers camp. Because pallet looping is just about as much fun as camping, except camping takes a lot less work and is often more rewarding. And you just KNOW when you go into a loop or two, maybe get someone hooked (2 people max), by that time all the gens get done (hex ruin does nothing to help this). The games are too short and the killer gets nothing out of it. Definitely not fun. And that’s the reason I can’t get past rank 10 as a killer because I just seem to get the worst teams (I was stuck to rank 13 for such a long time I thought I’d never get past it). Lmao why can’t I get teams like this when I play the survivor?.
So, by the end of the season I just paid no mind to loopers. If someone tries that bullshit with me, I just go defend the gens and look for the weak link of the team. But obviously, that doesn’t always work (genrushing is strong, even with hex ruin). I got iridescent emblems in the gatekeeper category in my last few matches because of this though lol.
It was worth the effort. I got both of the event items.
Anyway this is why I mostly play survivor. It’s just more rewarding and a LOT easier. I still feel bad for those killers who get one kill at most while the rest of our team escapes. And that happens a lot, even in mid-ranks.
