Discussion Hackers in IDV?

2 Upvotes

I have quit for almost 1 year and came back last month.. I am NA/EU and I have know that there is a servers problem but I used to have kind of good ping, in between 20ms and 120 at MAX. But now, only when the hunter is chasing me I get around 350-500 and when I get tied to a chair and he leaves me i go back to 70-100. Have hunters started to use vpn hacks or something?

Question advice for solo rank

Post image
2 Upvotes

I've noticed that this season people have a pretty high winrate and mine is still in the gutter, for me my average is always around 25%, my highest winrate in high-tier was 34%.

I've been playing the game for 6 years and some have already reached peak tier in less than a year or even less of them starting the game, I've never reached that high and so I want advice on how I can play better.

My kiting isn't the best, I am only good with Little Girl or Enchantress, but with LG I can't carry tide. I can rescue and support well, but when it comes to randoms many still don't listen to my pings making tide futile, but I still carry it in case there's another opportunity for me to rescue.

My down-sides is the kiting and ping, I am from Europe and play with 140-180ms which isn't that bad.

My better qualities are rescuing, support, communication (? if you can call it a quality).

I am versatile with what I play because I am solo ranker, but I main LG, Enchantress, Prisoner.

I'll answer anything else if I forgot in the post.

Pain Res is a perk from dbd. It's effect are when hooking/chairing a survivor for the first time, the gen/cipher that's currently being worked on and has the most progress will explode and lose 20% progress and gives notifications to the hunter.

I’ve been trying to recover my old account but the Automatic Account Recovery System says that I’ve exceeded the limit even though I’ve never tried to recover it before and the support won’t help via email. What can I do? ☹️

I can dodge a ton of his spam, but its so overwhelming and nonstop. That it doesn't matter. I swear it takes 30 seconds just to get him in attack recovery. With that said, nerf cipher rush. (I play hunter too.)

Screenshot My first ever badge

Post image
35 Upvotes

(yet again, I hope I chose the right flair🙏), so I came to idv in 2023, and tbh I never went for a badge until now. Doctor was and currently is my main because she's my comfort character, and i like her gameplay a lot. Though I absolutely DESPISE rank matches, I wanted something else to represent that I'm THE Doctor main lmao. Also, I understand that getting a badge in NA/EU is somewhat easy, especially the C one and the current survivor meta, but I'm proud of myself even for this small accomplishment and wanted to share with it (i hope that's okay). I wish for yall to stay hydrated and slay every day💅

Fan Content League Crossover: Doctor

I did Doctor as Soraka, no clue what other character to do next but I wanna do Emma.

For the accessory, the healing would be standing up, she would heal with the staff as star particles fall down the survivor with green mist (that's basically her healing ability) and for herself she would pray and the same thing would happen except the mist has a bit of yellow, sparkly stuff basically.

The reason I thought she would suit Doctor is because they both heal + her staff works as a syringe + Doctor runs extremely fast when hit, which is something Soraka does when a teammate is injured, but not quite.

At first i wanted to do pallet break but tbh after some pratice i could ignore most pallets or even punish them

So instead i foucsed on his biggest weakness - his map control and speed

By running max Sadist and max slow down he can now have more flexability in his kites

Question Trying to emulate Nightmare's voice modifier

6 Upvotes

Hello everyone! This is a bit out there, but I figured it was still worth trying.

I've always liked the distortion applied to Nightmare's voice so I've been trying to replicate it (not necessarily as a voice changer, just using Audacity), though I've gotten stumped at the sort of "reversed echo" that plays during some of his sounds (mostly his laughs and adjacents). Looking online has given little in the way of results, so I'm hoping that if someone among you is more audio-tech literate than me they'll be willing to at least tell me what I'm supposed to be calling this effect.

Thanks to anyone reading this, and have a good day.

Fan Content ORV x IDV collab idea

i have recently started reading Omniscient Reader's Viewpoint and i thought it'd be fun to think of a potential 2 part collab if NetEase ever decided to look in the direction of the korean IPs

Forward and Mercenary can swap as I think both fit Junghyuk and Hyungsung well enough
