I appreciate threads like this that generate discussion. Although it may not be everyone's experience, I do think it's important to know where player frustrations are coming from and I'm glad that you put your thoughts out there.

Allow me to tell you then that on the flip side playing as a killer who gets stuck playing against SWF for the majority of their games it is not fun.

There is zero compensation for the killer when you play against a SWF. Good SWFs effectively get free perks and the killer gets : less points and more frustrating games.

Stealth killers in particular are quite weak because you can just have one person constantly "radioing" their position to the killer.

Imagine if we made one tiny nerf to anyone playing in a SWF : you no longer get any kind of terror radius because you have to talk to your friends to tell where the killer is from now on.

That would make SWF have a tiny disadvantage (because right now there is no disadvantage and it only has advantages).

Years ago there was a developer post that said : we see no advantage gained by people playing in a SWF.

Two to three years later that position was changed to syay : Survivors in a swf at most have a 15% higher escape rate than solo queue players. That seems unfair given the knowledge posted from a dev who no longer works at BHVR who said : "Freddy was nerfed for having a ~6% too high kill rate".


If I had a magic wand I would force the developers to play DBD locked at 2000 MMR, or whatever is the invisible cut off for high level play. I would say ok devs : please go play only high MMR killer for the next 30 days.

You aren't allowed to play Any of the "S" tier killers. You aren't allowed to use "best in slot addons every game".

See how much fun you have - I dont think the fun level will be very high.
I can for sure understand your frustration and I thank you for taking the time to respond to me! I'll pass this along to the team
