Killers controlled by the player should be replaced by AI

Since I've started playing DbD I've noticed a common trend where the devs constantly buff the bottom line of killers and nerf the top tier survivors. This is a constant, time and time again. And it's rather frustrating. On one hand you have survivors that have taken the time to learn to play the game properly and utilize all resources at their disposal to ensure victory whereas killers just wanna M1, BBQ, and get 4Ks. Don't get me wrong, there are a few good killers, but they're mosty....bad? Yeah, bad.
Pyramid Head was kinda the tipping point for a lot of us as we saw the devs flat out give a killer the ability to tunnel without consequences. The devs have admitted it's looked down upon to do so, as they understand the power imbalance, but still created him anyway because they knew killers just aren't improving.
And we're at the point now where the devs had to add Undying into the game because killers can't figure out how to juggle their objectives. As if the constant spoonfeeding of insane buffs to make even the worst killers feel like they're decent wasn't enough. Now killers can just camp a gen and let ruin regress it even though survivors have cleansed 50 totems by that point. There's basically 0 consequences.
It's time for a change.
I propose that all killers change over to an AI-controlled interface. AI has proven to be far superior to humans and will solve a lot of the problems with the current state of the game. Different levels of AI can be implemented to provide all players across all ranks a smooth, fair experience in all of their matches. Just think about it: No more tunneling or camping as the AI can be programmed not to do so. No need to bring second chance perks so survivors can finally use the perks that they want to without having to worry about bad plays. And most of all: It'll finally be about skill and not about finding different, cheap ways to make the worst of the worst seem better.
However I do suggest that KYF still remain as is so that former killers can use the killers that they bought as I imagine it would be frustrating to do refunds.

This is bait.
>BHVR creates an self learning AI
>Self learning AI becomes sentient and unhappy with clicky clicks and tbaggers and other bm tricks
>AI determines tunneling is the most effective tactic to complete it's objective and stop the tbagging clicky clicks
>People demand we replace the AI with human players who are more adaptable and able to think outside the box to complete their objective
:D
I agree in a disagreeing manner, that is to say your thoughts are correct in a sense that they are actually false.
Did a bot make this post?
I think you're beating around the bush here, and suggesting the "far superior AI" replace Behaviour for rolling out updates.
No.
I very much enjoy playing killer thank you very much.
Also... you don't seem to understand why Hex: Undying was added to the game. It was added because Hex Perks... on the whole, were way too risky to be actually useful. Especially since sometimes your Hex perk can show up in plain sight of a Survivor who just spawned in. That was even with the current suite of Hex protection perks that already existed (Thrill of the Hunt, Retribution, and Haunted Ground). So... they added another, better one. Did they overshoot? Maybe, maybe not. I'm not sure, but I think overall adding Undying was a good thing.
I'd actually be willing to scrap my idea in favour of this.
The developers cant even code a proper sound system, and you expect these exact developers to programe an AI?
Hold my hook.
The day has finally come. People are unironically asking for killers to be replaced by bots.
I'm so sorry to everyone I've mocked. You were actually ######### right.
Yeah but they created dead zones that stretch for like 10 miles despite the fact that pallets are 1 of 2 things survivors use to get away from killers. I have faith in them.
What about the people who play killer? Do we all just go screw ourselves? We don't matter, do we? What, you think it's okay to literally cut off half a game, that people paid for, just so you can be coddled? How selfish are you?
The worst part is that they don't even have an inkling as to how wrong it is.
You'd have to be some kind of special to teabag an AI and assume it understands the sentiment. And I won't even dignify the part of your post that assumes that AI have feelings.
That's why I suggested that KYF remain as is. You can still play killer. :)
Thanks, but no thanks.
I'm still in denial that this is reality.
I don't have 5 friends. The 3 people I enjoy playing with currently can't play and in 2 of the cases probably won't again. Sure, KYF.
This idea is so bad that you literally cannot be serious.
On the plus side, you have a full SWF team for when the AI comes. :)
I really wanna break a plethora of forum rules and make fun of you rn
If you think the balance changes over the years were bad there´s only one thing I wanna tell you:
I don't see you calling out AI taking over real life jobs. If you're miffed about AI in DbD (Even though its on mobile lol) you're a hypocrite.
I play perkless as survivor. What's your excuse?
Bruh you wanna replace half the player base with AI and force them into KYF. A game a consumer paid to play is different than real jobs being taken by robots and AI. You're mental bro
Maybe you should start using perks then since you struggle so much to survive against the big bad killers?
How is it different other than killers aren't paid to do their jobs? It's perfectly logical.
OP obviously has not considered the inrvitability of the AI becoming self-learning and determining that camping/tunneling with Ebony moris is the most efficient strategy.
I don't struggle to survive. Perhaps you're projecting onto me.
See, which part of 2 of them might never pay again wasn't clear?
Also, no, still a bad idea. People play killer because they find it fun too, you know? Plus, what happens to killers we've spent money, points, shards, cells on. Cosmetics, etc. What happens to all of that?
Dude. You know that they can literally just disable that, right? Riiight?
It'll all be available in KYF still. Why is that so hard to understand?
