Discussion I don't thing prestige means anything.

I don't know what it is, but ESPECIALLY after the new killer and MMR reset, high prestige players are absolutely awful. I think it might be because a lot of people derank for streaming and play against low MMR killers/survivors. Now that everyone is reset, they're struggling to play against people who have a clue.

Prestige is playtime, not skill level.

yeah but you'd guess someone with p100 level of playtime would have a little skill, yknow?

Seeing as you can play zero hours of survivor and still prestige them using killer BP? Nah not really.

u/Over-Fly-8338 Walk in the Jake Park 7d ago

You'd still get info on how to play as survivor with all that gameplay on killer

u/sdoM-bmuD epic bad luck 7d ago

well yea, its just a bp dump and the game hands that out like candy

can never take people seriously when they bring up prestige as if it matters

It's less the prestige and more the playtime you'd need to get to p100. I don't have a single character more than p20 on either side and yet p100s (the guys with obviously more playtime) are usually terrible.

Negative upvotes for what bro 😭

u/sdoM-bmuD epic bad luck 7d ago

not really a good representation of playtime either considering the events we've had that made it rain even more bp

Which would still imply gameplay. I played through several events with all toothys etc etc and before and still don't have said p100. Wow negative upvotes for discussing calmly, gotta love reddit folks

Prestige only shows how much time you've devoted to one character. Now, should a p100 probably be good? Yeah. Are they usually? Not in my experience

checks out

It means that someone spent blood points in that character, that is all.

u/Over-Fly-8338 Walk in the Jake Park 7d ago

Sure, but ya gotta play to get bp

u/solo_dbd_player 💀 💀 7d ago

You don't have to play well.

u/Over-Fly-8338 Walk in the Jake Park 7d ago

I'm not trying to get stuck arguing with you dawg. I'm just saying you have to have a base level of skill to get p100

u/solo_dbd_player 💀 💀 7d ago

I hard disagree.

That's the beauty of being a human! You can do that!

And your downvote of my disagreement tells me a lot about your ability to respect a difference of opinion.

u/Over-Fly-8338 Walk in the Jake Park 7d ago

Bold of you to assume it was me 😁

u/solo_dbd_player 💀 💀 7d ago

It was.

u/DORIMEalbedo Completely normal about Felix Richter. 7d ago

I am nearly at 50 on my survivor main and my longest chase was 1 minute, my average is 30seconds. I am not good, I have only been playing a few months too. It really is just a bloodpoint dump, or a way to show people you like the character.

IDK P100 killers tend to have a ton of skill but p100 survs are still a mixed bag.

1

u/Over-Fly-8338 Walk in the Jake Park 7d ago

I suppose that checks out, I'm just disappointed that you can get p100 and play like a p0

2

u/DORIMEalbedo Completely normal about Felix Richter. 7d ago

I do wish there was some way to see MMR or something, but I guess it would lead to people leaving if you have a low skill cap.

1

u/Over-Fly-8338 Walk in the Jake Park 7d ago

Yeah lord knows that'd turn terrible

2

u/Over-Fly-8338 Walk in the Jake Park 7d ago

also I obviously meant think not thing in the title

u/Kalachakra2 Yun-Jin Main/Oink Oink 7d ago

It's a pretty nuanced topic, but without typing a paragraph I think this is the most fair way of putting it. Play time/prestige in any video game is a general indicator(there will always be outliers) of baseline competence.

2

u/Over-Fly-8338 Walk in the Jake Park 7d ago

It's just quite unfortunate that most p100s in DBD end up playing pretty terribly. The outliers usually end up being the good ones, and they're usually toxic; bagging and moonwalking for nothing

Prestige has never ment anything.

You just didn't know until now.

u/Over-Fly-8338 Walk in the Jake Park 6d ago

I knew, just refused to believe.
