The new slugging meta is causing big problems for survivors in Dead By Daylight. The recent patch introduced changes that incentivize killers to slug in order to win and survivors are spending a lot of their time looking at the floor which is causing a lot of DCs in Dead By Daylight

  1. I have a solution. You know how there's an anti face camp mechanic for hooks? What if a downed survivor has their own mechanic that allows them to self rez if slugged for a long period of time, granting short endurance

  2. This could be my elo (I play both killer and survivor but I'm a survivor main), but I have noticed a drastic increase in survivor's rushing to the hook and trying to bully the killer. I've even had games as killers where I was going to walk away for the hooks but all 3 survivors were right in front of me, so it puts you in an awkward situation of either I walk away or I play this out which will end up with slugging. So I feel like it's a cycle feeding itself where survivors are making situations for killers where it's better to slug and killers are making situations where it's better to rush in.

  3. The viable solution would be to make killer perks that revolve around hooking more effective while at the same time making slugging less effective but knowing BHVR they are just gonna make unbreakable basekit soon and never do anything to fix the reason WHY killers slug.

  4. just had a Bubba try to 4 man slug. a teammate with unbreakable came and picked me up… bubba was right on me thanks to deer stalker. I looped until all 3 other survivors bled out (bc I could not stop with him up my booty). managed to loop straight into hatch. proceeded to get bled out 4/6 of my games that night

  5. As a killer I feel like I have to slug for the 4k sometimes, and the only is because of the hatch. Especially on maps where the gates are really bad, because if I don’t it’s almost giving the fourth survivor a get out of trial free card.

  6. It's not a problem for the devs but for the community to solve. Sweat some games if you want, If you see survivors goofing around or clearly struggling. Mess around with them a bit and have some fun. Always give the last one a chance to find the hatch, eventually you'll get that mori. It's really that simple but it's up to the players.

  7. Yeah that's why I stopped playing, I'm waiting for this to be fixed or at least become less popular as it's just not fun to sniff the ground every three games. I miss playing, but I just can't play a game that focuses more on rewards compared to fun.

  8. I do selective slugging, for example If I down someone with my Oni Power and someone else is near, ill slug them and go for another down but then go pick both up (if they haven’t been picked up yet), But as a Killer main I do not understand the people that will slug 4 people to secure a win…If its endgame? Yeah I can understand that! But brother there is 5 gens left…would you wanna sit there for the whole game being unable to play? I sure wouldn’t!
