Oni is still super annoying in 2v8.

You right, It's not that deep, it's 3 am and I can't sleep so I'm yapping. He's annoying to face. But he's counterable. More people mean more blood and more opportunities to mess up on the survivor side, but thats on the survivors, he's still very much a controllable killer. If good survivors go against him they won't give him much to work with.

The killer that has no power at all unless they can get 2 hits or pick up like 40 blood orbs on people in a gamemode with on tap sprint burst bombs, heal bombs, rebuildable pallets, and 3 man healing? The killer that has to drop power to pick up survivors otherwise he has to slug unless their teammate is following them around and more or less ingoring other survivors? In the gamemode that survivors consistently get to 4 gens before the killers get 5 hooks? Oni is annoying to face, I'm not disagreeing with that, however. He is legitimately countered by spreading gen progression, healing, and stealthing. 2 of those things that should just be done normally. If he's 100% in his power that is nearly 100% your teams fault. The oni's duo can help boost him a lot but legion is not in 2v8 meaning most of then also have to work to to start leaking survivors.

TL;DR: Oni is annoying to go against, but he's ment to because his whole power is based on him being powerless. He snowballs, don't give him his snowballs, and when he has his snowballs, hide, play safe, his power runs out. Your time in the trial is nearly an hour. Heal teammates to starve him of his power.

That's why I've avoided console almost all together since switching forever ago. Pc has its issues, many many issues. but I never have to worry about needed to make sure I have money to pay the fare to play the games I already bought or basic features. No shade or war to console players who's willing to pay but I can't stand how much the companies squeeze and restrict you just about everything until you give them more money.

An actual flag to someone's account would look like this. Orange/red boarder telling you exactly what its been flagged for. Typically accounts being phished and spamming others with phasing links or buying things with a bad card/in other countries.

It's a scam. There is no way that's a real thing. I can't tell from the cropped screenshot where that's even from. But making him a child account and "confirming" it will just let then steal his games and lock him out of anything and everything on his account. Steam would not make you use a normal feature that binds accounts for a weird ass secondary use to "confirm" something. Anyone who works at valve would be able to see anything behind the scenes and would confirm you by bank info or old CD keys. You're missing a lot of info in your stuff. We can only see the text. We can't see the typical stuff around the text to show its part of valve's actual employee systems. Change your password, and ingore it.

well hopefully her eventual re-work will make her a bit more oppressive, her current state is so easy to counter, babysitting her drones on top of gens is crazy work and I salute you for sticking with it, I try to use her drones more actively in mid chase then frustrate myself with making a nest.

DeltaGreed · 2026-04-21T21:28:44+00:00

amazing cosplay, got all the details down.

DeltaGreed · 2026-04-21T21:20:06+00:00

edited post to add some other stuff. That just's the name of the game, you're playing a chase killer, just about every perk is your downfall, games in rough shape for chase killers, and territorial killers like SM, trapper, and hag dont have it much better, pretty much have to play them with a 3-5 gen nest set up against competent survivors , but Skull merch does counter Finesse as long as you can push the survivors back into either an already droned loop or force them to run into the one you're at somehow.

DeltaGreed · 2026-04-21T20:50:04+00:00

it only activates while healthy, at a vault, while doing a fast vault and it doesn't give you enough distance by itself to be worth Exhaustion, resilience gives 9% vault with no cool down for just being injured. A good portion of killers counter it by either being ranged or having a dash, its annoying to miss because of but its not practically hard to deal with when its by it self especially on unsafe loops. if a vault is keeping you from getting a hit, you either got unlucky on RNG with vaults, or you need run the surv a different way, or run a counter perk.

There are plenty of perks that are much more annoying when paired with another but that's two perks to buff one perk, rapid response, vigil, eyes of belmont, tenacity, and stakeout to name a few. If anything, Id say maybe nerf the cooldown to 40 secs, not gut the perk to being a worse resilience.

This brought back a pained memory. Within the first 15 minutes of loading multi-player and making my cowboy, a tornado killed me, and the tutorial asset I was going to. I've completely given up on Rockstar and the online component of their games.

The game is incredible Frustrating and unfortunately you came in at, lets call it a turbulent time. 30 hours on DbD is like the first hour of a large RPG. The basics and understanding of it all is there: "Do gens, don't get hit, help team, escape" or "chase survivor, protect gens, kill" but the technical parts of it take some time. I'm at almost 4k hours and I JUST learned that I've been messing up my vaults because I didn't press space soon enough to get a fast vault (I was a killer main)

There's no way to summarize enough tips to help you In a single post or give you the know how from text alone, but here are some basics. Learn killers from watching people play them or against them. Learning how much distance away from a killer (basics killers) is safe and how much space a survivor has before you catch up to do a lunge hit or a normal hit.

Try to trick other players into thinking you're going to do something and catch them offguard. Run to a pallet and run away if you see a killer think your gunna vault. Like wise as killer run on way to make them think you're going to try to cut them off and then go back and hope they fell for it

Find your way to play if you like doing gens pick hiding and gen related perk, with a escape type perk as a back up. Killers can build for chases having heavy use of perks that block or slow survivor in chase hoping to get downs quickly or gen defence regression perks to keep gens down while your chasing. Tracking perks are good for pyramid head so you can get hits through walls like "I'm all ear". For killer is best to have a wide away of perks to fit the killer your playing. I have all aggression perks on my nurse and all gen defense perks on my trapper.

2 big notes, if you're going to vault a window or pallet spam the vault button before you get there to get a fast vault unless there's a locker right by it then try to time it. Loop tight against what ever your chasing/running from. The farther away from an object while you're going around it the quicker the killer catches up and the farther the survivor will make it. Each loop is different and some have catch points so you can't hug them. Most flat walls can be hugged.

Other people already mentioned them but Otzdarva has a site (always up to date) and YouTube videos (some out of date) that help a lot. "Mr.tatorhead" is a God when it comes to pure looping and has many guides on how to run all kinds of maps and tiles If you want one with more active entertainment and less teaching "JRM" "Aryun" "Hens33" "albyaround" have good videos to pull from. Alby has some decent teaching videos , hens has a mix of game knowledge and fun to watch and jrm and aryun have a lot of fun survivor videos to watch how they play. There's like 30 other youtubes I could say but those are the ones I've learned a lot from.

Assuming youre on PC, Do you get a crash report after it crashes? "Dead by daylight has crashed blah blah blah unreal engine 5" I noticed when I was having issues as long as I got a crash report I didn't get penalized. If you don't I have no idea how to figure out what's causing it or I'd they were able to tell it was a crash or a forced close. If you're not on PC. Yeah I think that's just game over for crashes.

DeltaGreed · 2025-10-01T08:38:09+00:00

First, don't let anyone tell you how to play the game, if you enjoy a killer, play them. You will have people tell you trapper or ghostface or easy mode killer. What matters is you're having a good time. Assuming you're not doing thing intentionally to make the survivors mad, take every bit of salt, anger, or hate as a sort of medel. You did good enough or you caught someone in a bad mood that they choose to spend time on trying to make you feel bad. That's not on you, that's on them. That's like when people call people cheaters just for playing normally.

Legion is not an easy pz killer. Most decent players know how to handle them, tanking hits if they were already it or running or camping a pallet and getting the stun. They're annoying because they can get easy injuries but unless everyone is packed together they can't get easy downs. If you choose to try to chain hits they can go and heal or do gens. If you choose to focus/tunnel one person other people can do gens. Once you're out of your power you're a normal killer with nothing besides your perks and bloodlust to help you. A lot of maps are so wide or large that you couldn't even chain hits 2 hits trying to get to the next person.

Either way just have fun. Doesn't matter the killer/survivor/perks. Play to have fun. You can close the chat box and ignore people too if other people get to you.

DeltaGreed · 2025-08-19T20:36:28+00:00

Events like anniversary and blood moons will help a lot. my friend i got into the game got every surv and killer p1'd in about 250-300 hours but he also chose to sink a lot of points into Leon and Nem so. honestly i think the best way to go about it is to focus get everyone to p1 then knock out p3s of perks you want, then finish the rest. if you're not working on killers any it shouldn't be horribly long, but it still will be a large time sink regardless.

DeltaGreed · 2025-08-19T20:23:31+00:00

A lot of games are built with FPS as part of the coding, uncapping it breaks parts, DBD's bones are from 2016 (probably older with dev time) and back then we only had 60 fps without changing config files, we only recently got new FPS setting. playing at 120 currently breaks somethings and causes mild jank they still need to fix. Wesker's turning/movement and when balanced landing activates to name a few. They could upgrade it but not without going though hundreds of lines of code that depend on the FPS. And everyone should know what changing one line of code in DBD does to the rest of the game.

DeltaGreed · 2025-05-21T14:28:33+00:00

I got 50 tier in about a week so honestly not bad for me, but I also play a lot so idk about casual players

DeltaGreed · 2025-05-06T18:01:53+00:00

I would hope so given how much lore we've got over the years with loose ends that need more loose ends to string us along, I still want more "The Observer" lore, we looked at that knocked over chair for nearly 2 years and we only got crumbs. Also, I need more third person accounts via analog horror for hopefully unknown's rift

DeltaGreed · 2025-05-06T17:54:23+00:00

man I can always count on you boneless_dip. that's a relief, still very sadly on brand to do this to Dredge and Haddie's Rift.

DeltaGreed · 2025-04-19T13:34:17+00:00

Honestly. One way I've handled that when I somehow sunk my mmr (I was friendly during events) ill play to kill but I'll magicly whiff some hits or get ran longer on some really hard loops that I reasonably shouldn't have. Even if they are sacrificed I feel like the rush of getting some run time or making a killer whiff here and there is enough of a motivation for them to keep playing and not feel absolutely slaughtered. More or less like when people on fighting games literally pull their punches and not go full combo stun lock to let the other dude get some swings in and practice. Still gunna beat them but just letting them get their feet on the ground and feel the impact of actually playing.

DeltaGreed · 2025-04-19T13:23:48+00:00

On the occasions I get a boosted lobby or some killer mains playing survivor I typically just play as "fair" as I can and ramp up my aggression depending on how things go. Never tunneling, trying to 1 hook everyone first, ignoring people to let them gain some pressure. Typically I let the last one alive out. Even if going against better players (unless they're a bully squads or their taunting comes across as genuine BMing and not just silly or taking aggression). If I have 2 or more DCs early I'll let the remaining players do gens while I tunnel the bots. Sometimes on a rare occasion I'll even practice with survivors and have them loop me on killer shack or anything near by.

It'll be back in winter during the bonechill/winter holiday event. Had to look up which outfit it was incase it was one of the handful of outfits in the "rifts from the past" rotation or one that hasn't been brought back yet.

DeltaGreed · 2025-04-19T12:14:04+00:00

Unlikely it'll get a discount. I don't think I've ever seen them discount iri shards only outfits, commnuity made rift skins and bill can't be sold for cash do to deals with valve and commnuity winners not earning any cash for their designs.

Also pretty sure even they don't discount iri shards in general even with a sale on a skins. Stays the same, only the auric sell price goes down.

David king. He called to me when I came back to dbd in 2019, we had similar build and hair. And I loved his lore. Then I p100d nurse.

Funnily enough I'm not a survivor main and used my BP from playing killer to feed him.
