Anti-slug system > When?
Just quick question (and certainly a big debate), how is it still possible that no mechanic exists to counter slug when people abused about it. Please do not talk about "unbreakable" cause it is the only perk who can allow you to avoid ONE down. For example, game with unknown => slug to have his 4 kills, and I assume player wants to have his Steam achievement. Cause we're able to loop it, he slug the entire team, even one who managed to reach 4% chance to unhook himself.

Result: success, full point + achievement with no real challenge. It's clearly annoying when you see the only solution for killer to have kills is to use this way to paralyze the game.

When the day will arrive when some mechanics will be present, like to avoid camp?
Thanks.

Tbf, they did try basekit (infinite) UB a while ago. All survivors can just get up when they're slugged long enough multiple times per match but if the killer gets all 4 slugged at the same time, the game ended. It didn't really go well.

It can be reworked, I liked this system, at least the killers won’t spend our precious time mocking us when we’re all slugged

That's the point. I mean at the end it is just to waste time of others players and taunt them to say "mouhahaha I'm better than you. 4 kills. Blablablabla" but just to have a timer when you're slug, you can stand up and let's go cause waiting 20mn to be on the ground.. It's not funny

I had many such cases, I didn’t tbagged the killer and just looped well, at the end, when all the gens were done, he found me and stupidly waited for those 4 minutes until I died and, as usual, humped me, it’s a pity that in DBD it’s still there is no choice to give up...

On the other side, it's not fun to be entirely unable to pick someone up because they have basekit Unbreakable, Flip Flop, Power Struggle, a pallet over their body, and a buddy waiting nearby with Background Player and a Flashbang. Remember that any buff a Survivor gets basekit will be fully exploited solely for trolling purposes.

We already see how folks mis-use basekit BT.
Why is everyone talking about UB?
The answer is adding a suicide button. Easy.

if I play 5 games in a row i might get slugged once. I play daily have over 2000 hours and I just do not see to much slugging,camping,tunneling.
Yes they happen but not to the degree that something needs done. I solo Q 99% of the time. What I see the most is teammates leaving you on hook till second hook. refusing to heal, or trying to force heal you in a dangerous spot and not stopping when the killer is coming. talk about being forced ...
I'd rather a hump while slugged than the horrid teammates that care nothing for their team. It's a killers job/objective to kill you. Survivors are to help each other which is why there is altruism. there needs to be penalties for being a bad teammate lol

There's no debate. Killer got you, they can do whatever they want. What you need to do is deal with it.

It was fine, the problem is they combined it with the all 4 down=game over change and wrote both off as a failure when really the 4 knockdowns was the problem. It encouraged people to build and slug in a way that would force the instant win.

Just like they're too afraid of survivors losing their ♥♥♥♥ if they ever remove the swf option for official matches. It's funny how you never suggest something like a suicide option, it's always something that will screw the killers.

Finally, someone who know the true problem of the game.

not long until survivor mains ask for anti hit mechanics.
effinate Mar 12, 2024 @ 6:47pm 
if i don't hump you for 4 minutes on the ground, how will you know i won?

Bring anti-slugging perks if it's a problem. Also, change your playstyle and help downed people if the killer is slugging. So many survivors will greed gens and then end up with 4 downs and act like it was the killer's fault.
