Does anyone seriously thinks like that?

[Pauca Verba]

In a nearby thread i found the curious post. Sadly, i wasn't able to respond because thread was locked (probably criticizm aren't allowed on this forums anymore), but that comment just blow my mind. Does anyone really can be so much stupid to think like this?

No ingame chat, can't see your score/points while playing, and you can't see the ping of the killer so half the games you disconnect because your flying through walls and ♥♥♥♥ the other half people are running bots what a failure of a game.
I realized how far gaming has fallen when people actually play worthless crap like this.... it goes from Left4dead to this. My god

No ingame chat: Intentional as it fits the game's lore. The devs also didn't want people being able to coordinate their actions as it destroys the immersion.

So that's why they added survive with friends mode?
If you really thinking like that - then you are concidering developers of this game as a mentally ill people. Because would any sane person not allow people to smoke, because they care about their health, and then give them tons of drugs for free, still saying that they care about their health?

It's obivous that dev's are pretty sane, and they just don't care about ballance, immersion or lore. Vocie communication and coordination is an intended feature of this game, otherwise dev's would just remove survive with friends more, or make penalties to them. It must be obvious for everyone, but... seems like it's not. I wonder, maybe that guy is trying to make a joke? I doubt that anyone at least half-smart would say anything like that seriously. Do you?

I asked a dev about this, he said that survive with friends was a planned feature, and that they were struggling on deciding which mode would go in first, swf or kyf.

Way I see it, A lack of Communication makes the game more interesting when playing survivor; You get very unique, spontanious moments you don't normally get, as well, It's much harder to keep track of the killer's position when you can't communicate with your teammates... That being said, SWF is quite fun too, and I can't imagine it working without people using 3rd party voice software like sype or discord.

In my perfect world, I would be able to play with my friend, but not be able to know exactly where he is, if the killer is there, and what he is doing; thus, giving us that uncertainty that makes the game excitingly unpredictable.

Intended feature? I get vc with kyf, but sfw with voice coordination is cheating. This is not CS, TF2 or other games where both sides can coordenate. That's why I don't even bother with swf groups. As soon as they join I just leave and create a new lobby.

No communication makes this game a blast. As a killer or survivor it's boring as ♥♥♥♥ when the survivor gen rushes you in 2 - 3 mins and just bm you or the killer at the gates. Have fun with the game, take risks. You don't have to be in the best position at all times.

That's only proves that communication and teamwork was intented in this game.
And everything that players can say here is not important, because dev's see their game like this - with voice chat and combined efforts of the survivors. You just have to deal with it, and if you don't have anyone to play with - well, this game isn't for you then, because it is not ballanced for solo players.

That would be really nice.

They did plan to include play with friends and they apparently are okay with coordination.

But the bit about immersion is still true. As I understand, they didn't want the noise and aural ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ that comes with the voice chat. You know, the squaking kids yelling at you to rush B.

I agree, but in my humble opinion would solve nothing, since every SWF would still use teamspeak/whateverVoIP. And even worse, randoms would coordinate also and I can imagine them playing music for trolling, like in rust (I really enjoy it in that game, but different atmosphere).

And this, +1.

Thanks for publicly shaming me...

This has nothing to do with stupidity on my part and I find it quite insulting that you think this. I just said what the devs have said in a stream a long time ago to questions about why there is no direct ingame chat function. That has nothing to do with Survive with Friends as the devs can't control how SWF people communicate or IF they do or not.

They definitely don't want complete strangers to communicate with one another, be it ingame chat or ingame voice chat. They gave in a little bit by providing gestures.

Now, if you're finished insulting my intelligence, go and rewatch some of the old dev streams and they you may realise why I answered that other post the way I did.

2 killer mode. I want to see how survivor feel when killers are voice chating.

[Philthie]

People are pretty stupid yeah. Like copying and pasting locked threads into new threads. I mean, who does that? Pretty stupid if you ask me.

[Philthie]

Also, unless they have changed it, KYF was not ranked. SWF is ranked and you get bloodpoints. Its not the same at all.
