This update has been so buggy and the rubber banding is insane. My friend on Xbox keeps teleporting backwards. I can't remember an update being this bad.
I'm also on Xbox and decided to not play the game until it's fixed. It's pretty broken across the board.
OK UR FRIEND IS RIGHT, IVE BEEN DOWNED OR HIT BY ME LAGGING BACKWARDS SO MANY TIMES
DUDE IVE BEEN HAVING THE SAME ISSUE ON PS4
I’m also on Xbox and I’m constantly rubberbanding backwards at the worst times
I played killer and was stuck in a room for two minutes. Kept rubberbanding so bad.
And my friend actually died on hook in front of me because I didn't have the option to unhook. Quite literally, the button option was not present.
11:40 "Good attempt... FOR A PUS-"
I was gonna comment this too
Its freaking hilarious😂😂
i was gonna comment this too.
man this is why i subbed so long ago. shits hilarious
i was going to comment this too lol he is so funny
@@marcelolopes735me three. I laughed my ass off at that like ME TOO 🫡
Bro this is to funny
I miss the earlier UW because I loved having a ton of things that made me scream as James. It's why I use Scene Partner on him
Im not gonna lie, same. I main James, and i just love his screams. Its just funny to me
The update has truly been something lmao
I decided to play dredge as I’ve been maining Unknown since release, and thought they broke Dredge. It’s everything rubber banding? Reminds me of the BF4 release days lmao
It’s trash… Almost like the devs don’t play their own game.
@@CcSmokecC it’s arguably worse than the last time this problem happened
@@deepfake4021
Obligatory "This isn't an airport, you don't need to announce your departure."
@@deepfake4021 They changed to an entirely different engine. Pretty insane task, UE5 in general is buggy. Give it a minute.
that update sure did something bad to the performence of the game... i just got a lot of rubberbandig and survivers 5 to 10 meters sometimes... i used ultimate weapon for pure screaming builds a lot... for me its a lil sad that the screams are gone now for this perk... on huntress its still pretty good tho, you have to open lockers anyway, so why not use it for some infos^^ but at always, nice video dude^^
ya its called unreal 5 dont like their shit coding lol
weird i thought the game was smoother than ever
@@connor-772 sadly not really... 😅
Bro.... wtf did they do to the gen kicking animation??? It feels like I never finish the full animation
@@SweetLeavesXbox1 thats just one thing. The vaults are also kinda buggy, worse with the killer than with survivers. Just two hours ago i saw survivers and killers teleporting a couple of meters. Even i did it two times in different matches. Locker animations also are sometimes really bugged. But the worst thing happend when a surviver dc'ed yesterday. The bot just disapeared and popped up 6 minutes later right in the gate and just left. I really felt cheated on by a freakin' bot. 😂
I like the way you explain every detail of the perk's function and how to practice it with a very professional game
for everyone rubber banding, it's because the new engine the game is running on. your system needs to reload each area of each map, and the game is basically 'live streaming' the maps to you while you are playing the game. once the map is fully loaded at least once, you shouldn't have rubber banding issues.
We experienced it on Greenville Square but it was only at the END of the game when gates were powered, and around the killer shack (middleish of the map). If that's true, not sure why it would only happen at very end of match. The rest of the game leading up to that point was fine
nah m8, it happens during the entire match for me, regardless of where i go or have gone
Also, you *will* rubberband in Hawkins if you try to squeeze between a specific set of crates and the wall. That's likely a problem with collision detection/resolution code in that map.
Not rubberbanding, but one of the corner pallets in Hawkins can't be broken by killer from one side (you have to go around to the other side to break it)
the entire map is being loaded while you play the game so it will continue rubber banding.
Thanks Unreal Engine. I love shader compilation stutter!
that shot at 17:38 was JUICY
ayo, love your vids man ❤
Hear me out, I liked the old ultimate weapon as killer and survivor, It gave a point to call spirit and as a killer made distortion less viable at last, It felt so nice being able to use a tracking perk
I don’t even think it was bad for the game …
@@sparkyanimations213 Exactly
The only problem with this Perk is it's spammable and you can potentially get blindness for the whole game. So yeah the screaming was not the problem but the low CD was
It legit just needed to not be as spammable. Otherwise it was fine lol.
So it went from survivors scream when they’re inside your terror radius to now it reveals their aura.
Isn’t the aura reveal just better? I don’t really see how this is a nerf, just a really bad rework…
Those hatchet throws on sable were 🔥
9:50 she was already exposed from iron maiden, did he forget that part of the perk?
Damn 18:13 that's a sweet though disgusting throw wow
Making uw an aura reveal tells me bhvr has no idea what they are doing. Half the reason uw got popular is it bypassed distortion.
?
Good.
As a killer main, good.
Absolutely agree. The big problem was never the scream itself (Rip scream pigs) but that it wasn’t counterable by a perk that’s meta anyway…. but we’ve seen that before. BHVR balances the game towards newer players and mostly the survs because they make a bigger part of the community. What bothers me is that survs learn less cus they just bring windows every game instead of learning how to loop properly and killers bring 4 slowdown perks cus all other options have been nerfed. It makes the game less fun for both sides. :/
@@sparkyanimations213 I run windows every game ngl
@@yourmyfavyoutuber9813 that’s not the problem. The problem is complaining when someone brings a blind addon or perk ^_^‘
They aren’t removing distortion or nerfing it which counters all aura perks in the game without a way for the killer to counter it. So why shouldn’t killers be able to disable a singular perk as well. In a 1 v 4 I might add. With 12 perks against 4
thanks for the epilepsy cut spooky appreciate it!! its crazy this + the rubber banding has made it really difficult to play so I haven't at the moment
Personally, I thought the only change that had to be made to Ultimate Weapon was an increase in the cooldown, the base effect was fine as is.
Big time disagree. Ultimate Weapon? More like Ultimate Noob
@@themr_wilson Somebody is salty
@@themr_wilson Also, the whole point of a “weapon” is that it is effective.
People use gun at wars BECAUSE it is easy and difficult to deal with.
“Weapon” is kinda useless if it requires skill or can be outplayed.
@@themr_wilson lol found the survivor main that can't loop and hides all game long.
But of course in classic behavior fashion they triple nerf it so we all get to go back to the main five or so perks that are actually worth running
Hey Spookyloopz, I think the better synergy with current ultimate is with barbeque and Floods of rage. You would essentially have global aura reading all game.
This perk is arguably better now for mobility killers (nurse/blight) than it was before since it takes out all the guesswork of survivor locations. Before it was like a snapshot of survivor locations with the scream, now it's just 'open locker, charge blink, delete survivors not running distortion'
Y'all, everybody is sleeping on Spies From the Shadows as their replacement for Ultimate Weapon. Maybe at the top level survivors try harder not to alert crows, but I get insane value from it all the time. It has a cooldown of FIVE SECONDS and doesn't have any indicator for the survivors that you have it, so unlike with aura perks or ones that make you scream, they won't be able to tell why you have so much info on where they are, and they can't distortion. It is especially nuts on indoor maps where the crows are basically impossible to avoid.
The downsides are that sometimes the number of loud noise notifications can be distracting, and because it doesn't make survivors scream it doesn't interrupt actions. But it's one of my favorite info perks on killer.
Editing to add: nobody's gonna be running calm spirit anymore because of the Ultimate Weapon change, so that helps too lol
@spookyloopz Thank you for the epilepsy cut. I have epilepsy and your videos are sometimes the only way for me to actually play.
15:47 Did anyone else hear knocking?
I didn’t until I went back after your comment. Wonder what it was
nope
Think he just tapped his mic or something
Nope
The description isn't up to date on my part (Steam, PC). It says that survivors 15 meters around a locker will scream. However, in game, they don't scream and their auras are instead revealed when entering my terror radius.
Behavior be clowing for real : ^)
Another well thought out and composited video, Spooky!
I’m happy you gave me this info because I was not sure what they did with ultimate weapon and I didn’t check haha
I also have a lot of rubberbanding since the update. As for Oni ,it seems they never fixed his slower animation thats been around for a while now.
that shot on huntress through the window and door at shack? chefs kiss
I’m so glad I saw you experience the jitter. Our internet has been poopy lately so I was just blaming that for a good long while. I think I took me to see the broken animations in RPD (top stairs pallet UGH).
I'm still of a mind that the new UW is now much stronger with certain killers, it's essentially made distortion even more valuable, and people who don't have it will have an even harder time. Cause a scream only shows where you are for a brief moment, but aura reading, with lethal pursuer makes killers that benefit from aura reading even more terrifying.
Yeah only problem is that 80% of people run Distortion anyways 💀
I rubber banded so bad once on Hawkins that I ran halfway across the map to rescue someone, and ended up back to a loop like there was supposed to be a box in the way
Its not just you... No one can see auras in the corn. The corn sees the corn which feeds the corn to mask the aura within the corn. Simple
Ggs again spooky!! Love the build btw! Very strong on Oni!! 🙏🏼
Did they allow you to use stuff from sets to mix and match now?
I swear I see a face every time the basement flashes
Welp, this sucks. UW was one of the few info perks that wasn't beat by Distortion. Calm Spirit just became obsolete again and Distortion got a shadow buff.
Calm still beats pain res-dead man’s.
Its only good for that and doctor
To be fair, no idea why they even did this change on live when it's supposed to be a scream again in a later update but it's all centered on the locker instead of the killer.
No idea why this weird middle step.
@@coultersheppard2052 Dead Man’s doesn’t make you scream, and I don’t remember pain res making yuo scream anymore either. I don’t use it much outside of customs so if they updated that one I didn’t know
Removing the scream was needed. Calm spirit is an awful that perk(that needs rework) that provides zero benefit OUTSIDE of countering UW. Forced to use a perk to counter one highly tuned killer perk is not healthy for the game. Old UW gave you aura/ location, blindness AND a scream for practically free. BBQ requires a hook and for survivors to be far from said hook. Blindness required you to get a hit on a survivor(hex third seal/knockout), or punish survivors on gens with mindbreaker. Lastly screams also required hits(hex face the darkness/infectious fright) or hooks(make your choice). UW gave you all 3 for opening a locker...
2:04 sounded like rick😂
I keep getting rubber banded as killer and survivor. Even glitched out to where I was on a different spot on my screen but the game said I was by a pallet. Praying there's a patch for this soon because it's very debilitating to try dealing with
"Auras in the Corn" isn't that a song by The Doors?
I think a cool rework for Ultimate Weapon would be to instead have it make any survivor in the terror radius scream when the locker is opened, and if none are revealed then only the first survivor to enter your terror radius afterwards screams.
It should have a time limit on the lingering effect, and I’d expect it to warrant a shorter cooldown.
However, since it only gets one survivor most of the time it would ultimately reduce the amount of information afforded to the killer by the perk. Additionally, this would increase the amount of time a killer would need to spend opening lockers if they want to have it active often, which is why I think rebalancing to a shorter cooldown would be the right way to go.
It might be necessary to have it only make the closest survivor to you scream if multiple are in the terror radius when the locker is opened.
Playing twins to see what they changed had me rolling. Sitting there like “so they changed the switching time and let you recall vik basically right away, honestly should have just left them alone if that’s all they were going to do”
I was playing Onryo on RPD yesterday and on one of the TVs after you teleport you can’t even move 😅
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I wonder if, with the update, the changes to Blight's collision actually affected the rest of the game as well. I've noticed I get a lot of lag and stuttering around walls/doorways/certain other map objects like trees and rocks... makes me suspicious.
Why does ghost faces shadow look like it’s cheering him on 😂
eyyy ur running the Hunty Burn Skin like i do! I swore i was the only one that ran that skin lol.
I had a potential 3K go to a 4 Out due to that hardcore rubber banding. Every chase was a failure because they out ran me with the banding. Plus flashing lights in the end screen so I can’t even look at perks.
have you tried to pair it with the huntress hex
What is the conspicuous action in Game 4 at 24:54?
how did this patch go live
Maybe Distressing instead of Iron Maiden might be a good build for this too. Of course, it's only one change but still, could help with Ultimate Weapon
I’ve never lagged so bad after an update. Just constant rubber banding but for some reason only happens in chase.
Does ultimate weapon work with the legion add-on that makes his terror radius cover the entire map? 🤔
Ultimate Weapon rework should have same locker activations and same 15 second timer, but the survivor reveal and blindness should be delayed depending on how long you linger in the killer's terror radius. 8 seconds, for example. Also, instead of either screaming or aura revealing, the perk should prioritize killer instinct and hear the survivors' heartbeats.
yeah I've never lagged super bad before on DBD, but suddenly the lag is a lot more common so the engine switch was probably not super ideal in the short term. what sucks is I've been running into killers who take advantage of the lag and either lag switch or Ddos so they can win.
I haven’t noticed other survivors rubberbanding but as a killer I rubber band hard when vaulting and it makes it feel so bad when they get huge distance on you bc of it.
idk if this update tops the update years ago when you'd get stuck on the hills on maps and just be unable to move completely but it's up there. But also you're not alone. I also cannot see auras in the corn or when people are on gens, they just mesh together. 30+ squad let's go blind together :3
They didn't have to change the perk, just increasing the CD was enough
no joke played the same stuff on huntress (cause i really need those aura read, kind of a bad player in killer...) and it was really fun to play ^^
Because IT IS a good change.
People are stupid. That is all
0:34 « to be honest ? I don’t fk now ! »😭
Spooky gotta be one of the craziest huntress’ out there
I’m not playing until they patch this. I rubber band horribly every game. I have a clip of me vaulting the window at shack in a custom with a friend, and it rubber banded the second I vaulted and it showed the animation but then just kept me in shack.
Lol, that's EXACTLY the build I'm playing on my Huntress since Ultimate Weapon came out. It's really fun, but it also can be kinda frustrating without any gen defense.
It's not tunneling if you're just killing everyone.
How about Wraith with that add on that keeps his Terror Radius while cloaked?
Taking this as a grain of salt, but someone on reddit said that this UW is ptb's version and it will return screams next patch.
I was waiting for the huntress video with the new skin 😢 please tell me that’s up next
25:07 "insert smack ass sound effect"
looks like a really good huntress build
Spooky dominating with the Huntress bamboozles me every time
My only issue with UW was the cooldown. It felt like every player who ran it spammed it the entire game
Darkness revealed + Ultimate weapon is gonna be so strong on dredge now
Love the wesker gamplay❤❤
I've only been rubberbanded one instance this patch but my god some people have it really bad
Nice Video 👍
Hey spookyloopz I’m the chucky on midwhich from 2 days ago it was fun going against you and let you go cause I found out it was actually you and your my favorite dbd TH-camr ❤
Anyone else notice the slight delay when you vault as killer. It’s like you almost get stuck everytime! Smh
Ultimate weapon works well with whispers.
You sound a lot like Hogsqueal from The Spiderwick Chronicles
This update has so many bugs some maps have invisible hills and some loops are just blocked off by invisible walls
I would change iron maiden for another more useful perk but yeah aura reading is always fun to use
I just like to watch you doing these builds, cuz I could never run any builds without gen perks and not get cooked.
They should’ve just made the scream on terror radius last less time
Oni has been bugged for a few months where demon strike is ridiculously slow
1:48
We can't cross out BOTH, but hang in there
i think i prefer the screams, i think them not screaming makes the perk more op because survivors have no idea theyve been hit with it if they miss the blindness prompt in the corner. auras also stick around longer than a scream does, so you also see the direction they move in
Cause think about it proc one or both of the perks get walls, chase someone, down someone, hook that someone one of the perks are already on cooldown. Get walls again rinse and repeat. And people say the game is survivor sided.
@@thirtytwo6479It’s both sided.1/3 of the situations it’s killer sided, another 1/3 situations it’s survivor sided, in others it’s sided with neither. People need to realize and cope with that fact instead of complaining it’s sided either way. I personally blame the system, not the players.
Yeah the system is pretty broken. I understand abliltes and all that but its almost like they dont even play their game. They focus on changing the wrong stuff.
@@harrylarry6324 The game is sweat-sided, as in the game sides with whoever wanted to sweat the most.
This is definitely one of the patches of all time.
Anyone else having trouble with powerstruggle? What ever I do it won't stun the killer but the pallet drops. Basically the pallet drops too late.
Idk why they couldn't just change the scream to aura and that's it, idk why they needed to change the other things about it.
people who hard rely on distortion are the main ones who hate ultimate weapon lets be honest.
but thats been my build on Wesker ever since this change lol its just to good on him.
wait what about wraith with the addon that doesnt make his terror raidus go away lol
Im still kinda new to dbd. That locker perk seems pretty OP? You can just open a locker whenever you want as many times as you want to see survivors through walls? Can anyone explain if that's right or why it's balanced or anything?
Which one? He's running three locker perks on this build. Ultimate Weapon has a cooldown of 60 seconds, Darkness Revealed has a cooldown of 30 seconds and Iron Maiden is mostly just so he can search lockers faster.
Rework idea, make it a stacks perk of like 5 and make sure there’s a button to activate it in front of a locker
I've lost downs/hooks because I get stuck in place while carrying people. It sucks
This has truly been one of the updates of all times
All the bugs
This build seems like it would be great on the doctor
Or demogorgon
Doctor with that build and with his calm add on's would be broken
when the game is relatively the same with objectives and mechanics (not based around a killer that adds something new like xeno etc) as it's always been they have to be running out of ideas for new perks and some new perks are basically better or worse versions of older perks. Hopefully They keep changing up the perks that are less used.
I'm so confused. They literally said it went back to scream and only on lockers so now it's aura but still on you? Wtf
Somebody at BHVR balance team must be a Huntress main.
Ultimate weapon/gearhead OP
As a person with epilepsy I still wanted to see that part
Huh, I’ll probably never use ultimate weapon again if it stays like that.
I only played 1 game since the update but it feels much smoother and looks much better on PS5. I did notice one weird issue with rubber banding near the end of my game but it didn’t affect gameplay.
19:07 похоже, у всех есть этот баг с телепортированием назад несколько раз
truly one of the updates of all time
love your vids
They changed it back to 15m of the locker. Scream and reveal their position
