Got a chance to play it today for the first time. The singularity is pretty fun to play , and get adept on my 3rd game. The new level is terrible though, I feel like I’ll have to run windows for a while to get the layout down. How does everyone else feel about the new chapter?
I like the new killer! I feel like they’re actually going to be interesting to learn in comparison to the knight or skull merchant. The new map is visual vomit to me unfortunately. There’s too much to look at and I feel like it would be better suited for an adventure game where you can take your time to observe your surroundings. Since dbd is an asymmetrical game where two sides compete against each other, one is essentially encouraged to go tunnel vision on the survivors and ignore the visual aspects of the map.
The Singularity can be so oppressive in the right hands.
I went up against one who could hold a 3gen across maps pretty damn well.
The EMPs definitely need to be adjusted because there were times we could coordinate well enough to shut down his ability. Problem is I’ve seen just how crazy he gets when you don’t have them in hand. The overclock is no fucking joke.
I think the chapter is a good one and it’s nice to see them take feedback and apply some tweaks right away.
I’m hoping a change to Made for This will be made. Definitely don’t agree in getting a free haste for just being hurt.
ATM I think that EMP’s are overpowered but survivors still need to learn how to use them properly. Probably the easiest and most evil tactic is to grab them and wait to use them only after singularity ‘infects’ You
Honestly, the best way to use them is against someone they’re chasing.
I’ve seen so many chases last longer than they need to because people follow and EMP the person being chased.
Right next to that is using the EMP right after you were infected by a pod. The Singularity can’t teleport right away after a pod shots out a ball so you can kill two birds with one stone and waste their time waiting to slipstream.
Love love LOVE singularity! I started DBD just a month or so ago, and as soon as I heard there was a robot/ai killer I immediately went to buy it (only to discover it hadn’t been released yet lol). It’s kit is super interesting, providing information and map pressure, while also being great in chases and breaking loops like crazy. Super high skill ceiling too which is exciting for me, as it means the time I invest into playing it will continue to pay off.
Gabe is a cool dude, I like his aesthetic. I also like his randomly tragic backstory of being a clone with implanted memories. Perks are okay, obviously Made for This is probably overtuned but the other two are alright.
I both love and hate the new map. I think the layout is cool, with the 4 story central building (including the tunnels), and the rest of the map has good structure and loops. I also really like that it’s a map that is alive with living things, which is a nice change from all the desolate dead swamps. On the other hand, visual clutter is overwhelming, and all the ambient little plant and wildlife noises are very distracting as killer looking for their next mark.
Overall, love the pack, no regrets
Love to hear You’re having fun! Its good to see new players enoying dbd c:
Right now for me the singularity is a bit overwhelming. I cannot manage all this multitasking. Gotta practice with bots. I had the opportunity to play new map only as a killer and I have mixed feelings. It feels small which is good, but I cannot see a survivor from 2 meters away and the backround noise near some gens is like free iron will for survicors. It looks good though!
