I've just switched from Ps4 to Pc in dbd. So I'm obviously more experienced with controllers, especially since I've never played anything with a keyboard or mouse before.
I'm now wondering whether I should just continue to play with the controller on the PC or whether I should get used to the keyboard and mouse…
Are there any advantages with the mouse and keyboard?
Don't be a console pleb
But realtalk, with the controller you can't run so tight loops or look around while running
If you're just playing Survivor, then you can go on with Controller without any problems. Looping and everything else you need for it works just as well with a controller as with a mouse and keyboard.
If you play killer (occasionally), your mouse and keyboard are worlds better.
Survivor with controller is easy, but Killer is absolutely underground.
As a killer you even have aim assist
I play 99% survivor.
Running loops definitely works just as well. Looking around, I agree with you.
While walking around I can't get there with mouse and keyboard at the moment haha can't switch with W A S D while I move the mouse…
Play what you feel comfortable with. I also switched from console to PC and play with the controller
Do you have any tips on how I can get used to the keyboard and mouse if I want to change? So just playing a lot probably helps best, but maybe there are a few tips anyway.
That comes with the time
It becomes difficult for me with tips because I've always played on PC and therefore never had to get used to it. But yeah, just playing is probably the best thing you can do.
Not really. Auto Aim in DbD tends to lead to missing hits.
When I play killer, I play nurse and it has happened so often that after the second blink, thanks to autoaim, I just felt someone hitched 180 degrees behind me
It's not because of Auto Aim. Actually, DbD doesn't have a real Auto Aim either, even if everyone (including me) calls it that. The developers call it "aim dressing" instead. The idea behind this is to make hits look better by rotating the killer's camera after the hit has already been recognized as such by the game. But because the system is so bad, the camera is sometimes moved so much that the hit doesn't end up being hit.
That's why Hillbilly sometimes has the problem with "Phantom Saws", where the sprint is canceled when you are about to hit a survivor.
