Even with 2000 hrs in the game I learn something new. I had no idea about how the the great wiggle skill checks don’t give you more of a boost on the bar to wiggle- thank you mish!

[@viciousveras1648]

I remember that if you hit all of them it would reduce wiggle time for about 2 seconds. They must have changed it when the wiggle skill check became obligatory

[@scurbbb]

Yes it changed a while ago! Hitting the skill checks just makes the killer sway more but it is barely noticeable ​@@viciousveras1648

[@ProbablyMish]

@@viciousveras1648 Yes, it was a very temporary bonus sadly! The little skillcheck bar turns yellow showing a bloodpoint bonus too, so people often confuse that with a bonus to wiggle progression. Only when the wiggle bar is yellow are you wiggling quicker, which is with the perk Breakout!

[@ProbablyMish]

Thank you so much, I'm glad an experienced player still took something away from this video! Appreciate you watching!!

[@Sakiiboo]

they used to give you bonus wiggle a long time ago now they just give you like a weaker version of boil over

[@gabiausten8774]

My fiancé showed me your wonderful streams and I’ve to say you’re so positive, caring, friendly and funny, that it’s truly a joy to watch, every single time!

[@ProbablyMish]

OMG huge thank you to your fiancé and huge thank you to you for watching & the kind words. It means a lot

[@LapisD]

I really like how you explained about hugging wall. A lot of guides talk about hugging walls and that it'll save distance, but you explained WHY it saves time with the hitbox and visual examples of the pathing difference. Really well done :)

actual good tutorial?? rare omg, and the camping one is so good! its insane how much people dont actually get away

[@ProbablyMish]

Thank you so much! I love reassurance with the anti camping mechanic when people understand how the mechanic works! Thank you eepy

[@S73VNN]

Best tutorial ever! It’s 12:02pm and I watched all 14 minutes of it!

[@ProbablyMish]

LMAO ILY SEVEN PLS

[@LEWIS1992]

Only useful if you're on PC. Typical PC players assuming everyone is on their platform, ignoring the fact that the majority of the playerbase is on console. I stopped watching and disliked as soon as she started talking about WASD and mouse trash.

[@S73VNN]

@@LEWIS1992 The game works the same regardless of the platform you’re playing on 😂 It’s not on her to teach you how to use your two joysticks 💀

[@ProbablyMish]

@@LEWIS1992 Hi Lewis! I am a PC player so I can really only speak on my experience as a PC player, as I don't have a lot of time on controller. I think it's best to learn controller specific stuff from someone that plays on controller, I don't want to be incorrect about what I'm teaching and I figure most people will also understand what I mean for their respective platform.

[@incrediboxgamer]

​@@LEWIS1992 I play DBD on console and...Bro it's not her responsibility to teach both types of controls, I think you know how to use a joystick. And if you don't, maybe give up gaming.

[@mamal83]

great video, finally someone is explaining how the game mechanics work instead of just throwing tips at you to that you use 1% of the time

[@jaczlzlnx]

i’ve played this game for like 3 years and major props to you for being able to explain everything so well

[@devilsmessanger]

best , clearest explanation of camerawork in relation to movement ! I played killer for a bit ,but really wanted to play survivor but always got completely destroyed in record short time . hopefully with this info i get better .

[@madisoncharis]

so so useful, even as someone who has been playing for a bit! hope lots of ppl get to see this!

[@ProbablyMish]

Thank you so much! That means a lot!

[@loopy8899]

Don’t know if you’ll ever see this but I was incredibly nervous to try the game. Watching you and your positive attitude gave me a bit of confidence to try and I appreciate it a ton

[@kevincanales6654]

This is a phenomenal in-depth introduction for the game. Well done!

[@NeonTiger229]

Me and friend are entirely new to dbd. This guide nailed every question i had and even leaned into game strategy and stats. As someome who really wants to delve into dbd, i greatly appreciate that. Tysm

[@serenitywingss]

Thank you so much for this! I haven't played in quite a few years, so this is a welcome refresher course. I'm also sending this to my friend who's going to start playing survivor with me :)

[@crackoraptor]

around three years ago i left having 1k hours in the game and i’m TERRIFIED of all the new stuff so i’ll be watching each and every video of yours

[@Koolbie_homovill]

This is so good and so much better than other videos I watched trying to help myself be a better player. I suck at looping lol

[@princessaxel]

omg im new to mouse and keyboard and that explaining controls WAS PERFECT. makes sooooo much more sense ty ty sooo much💜

[@kiaraetsuko]

perfect tutorial, when i was starting a month ago i thought im supposed to hide and be stealthy, but now i know this is the information i needed when i was starting

[@RomanSnow]

Thanks! I just sent this to my friend who I've been training in DBD for about the past week

[@MarcosHenrique-pm6tn]

I would like a how to loop tutorial, I struggle at it so it would be very helpful just like this guide!

[@Kiddo_williams]

A lot of looping is map knowledge and knowing where general tiles would spawn Camera control always look back at the killer and know what type of killer you’re playing against. Does the killer respect pallets or go through them? Is it a range killer? Is the killer m1? Pathing is also very important gotta know how to mindgame against certain killers, don’t be predictable with your movement.

[@wesleymorrow8498]

She has many! Check out her other videos. SHE IS THE QUEEN OF DBD.

[@gabiausten8774]

It comes with time :)…once you calm down enough to not freak out when the killer is on you, map knowledge is next and lastly, CAMERA MOVEMENT! If you don’t know what the killer is doing behind you, you panic vault, map like a potato and loose!

[@muysli.y1855]

On PC you must work more with your camera to move tighter Console is bit different but easier Overall Camera and Map knowledge is key which comes with pratice

[@blazinglion26]

This is the best way to put the game into perspective 🙌🏻 behaviour should hire you at this point ❤️

[@ProbablyMish]

Thank you so much, that means a lot!

[@nateaaron253]

ive known this game since it came out and played it myself since 2018 so i have over 3000h. and i just watched this whole video while already knowing everything xd but i love seeing that there are people that explain dbd like this to new players, i wish i had that when i first started. great job, keep it up!

[@selemiago]

Jesus, even your voice is a tutorial voice. They need to hire u asap. Started playing on monday, your tips were very helpful. Thanks a lot

[@TheDeconstructivist]

This really is a spectacular tutorial. I even learned a bunch (the details on hitboxes)! Super useful. Two points: 1.) I've only ever heard it called "*the* Hatch," not "Hatch." So when you had no "the" it sounded very weird to me. This produced much entertainment to me. 2.) I know this only a basic tutorial, but I do think there is one rule that is especially important that might have been a nice closing point: while you should play the way that produces fun for you, you should also consider the experience of other players. The Devs have added a lot of rules (e.g. the anti-camp timer) to try and push the community in the direction of the spirit of the game, but at the end of the day it's up to the players to play in the spirit of the game. A key example for survivors is: you should try to all get out alive, if you can (which requires game-sense). Don't leave your team makes hanging. You want to have a good time, but sometimes your good time is up to your team mates (as it is a team game), so treat others the way you would want to be treated!

[@ProbablyMish]

Thank you so much! I'm so glad you found the details on hitboxes helpful! We put a lot of thought into those graphics. I appreciate your notes! I definitely always try to play in a way I would enjoy facing, and always hope to promote a positive playstyle with my videos. Thank you so much for commenting!

[@muysli.y1855]

I would add if your mates not unhook you don't take it personaly. Sometimes unhook in front of camping bubba at endgame is near impossible

[@TheDeconstructivist]

@@ProbablyMish My pleasure. You're definitely successful at the positive vibes. You (and many other content creators) help make DBD the awesome experience that it is.

[@Nikolas-x2l]

I’ve played DBD for about 4 years, on 2020 (I think) I stopped playing DBD and I thought I would still be decent, I was wrong, very wrong. This helped me so much even though I’m on X-box this still helped me so much, thank you for helping me catch my bearings after my about 3 year break😊😊

[@Katiyaj]

This is Such a great tutorial! I wish i had this 4 months ago. But I still learned something new. Thanks mish!

[@birchbarks550]

I decided to buy dbd on christmas sale because its been on my bucketlist for AGES and god I am overwhelmed, but what a concise tutorial, thank you :)

[@vivianvanderbilt-nb8uw]

hi mish!! dropped in stream today n i’ve only been playing dbd about a day & u were so sweet when i asked a question !! i knew i had to go watch ur beginners guide for dbd & i wanted to let you this was extremely helpful!! thanks queen 🥰

[@hbacik]

This is the best DBD beginner's guide on KZbin by far!

[@joaquinWilsoncarbon-yeta]

very good beginner tutorial other advice i could give is about how the gate's works. it has 3 red lights that tells you the progess of the gate opening. You can see that above the bar progression you have the text : "open escape", the first light will not pop on until you reach the progression bar at the "s" of escape. This can save you if you are near the killer or if you are alone in a endgame situation since the killer will not see the progress and it could save you some time

[@LifeWithPaulax]

you can even go to the beginning of the ''a'' without turning on the light

[@real_pat_ftw420]

As someone with 2.4k hours, this is a great guide. Good luck out there to any new players watching this!

[@Kiddo_williams]

This tutorial is really helpful for beginner players, thank you Mish will be sending it to my friends are starting to get into dbd.

[@blancacenkier]

I love this tutorial. I've been playing dbd for a while now but any tips would be helpful~ AND THIS SHIFT! I didn't know it so thank you so much 😭❤️ (I had trouble looking back while running)

[@mrshamster_]

I vouch for this to take place of the DBD tutorial. Great video Mish!

[@muysli.y1855]

Good Beginner guide, i would add some -Bloodlust Bloodlust is a passiv that ever Killer have the longer the chase go the faster Killer get (haste bonus) Bloodlust reset if the Killer get a *succsessful* hit, *stunned* or *breaking* a Pallet -Hatch Only spawn on ground floor saw sometimes teammate looking on upper floor (meat plant/RCPD)

[@ParrisCrockett]

Yo Mish, thank you for making this video ! Appreciate you more than you know! Will be watching this multiple times so the info sinks in ! 😃

[@stinkinic]

I started playing in the middle of the event. A very much fun chaos, I have 65 hours now. This tutorial helped me have insight on what my teammates are trying to do, once I was so confused on why a player left the door on 99 and I just opened it. Now I know why they did it. Its still hard for me looping though and almost every time got trapped lol

[@littylizard418]

me watching this even though i watch every single one of your streams :3 ty for the beginner guide mishy ily

I so love everything you do! Everything is so, so helpful!! I started playing about a year ago, found your channel on TikTok right away, and joined Twitch around that period (I'm mostly lurking, but enjoying it a lot nonetheless)! You and your amazing community are making this game so much fun for me!! Plus I find your way of streaming and teaching us so motivating to improve my playing style without feeling any pressure on it! 100% a Mish fan for life

[@theslenderbacon7261]

A killer tutorial would be super dope! Either that or a survivor item/ add-on tutorial. I know how they all work (in theory) but I’d still watch because I refuse to believe that I know everything (in practice… especially sabo).

[@Elvalenciiaa]

So informative I didn’t know half of the things mentioned ❤

[@DarrenIreland]

I love how we're all dbd players already but coming here for tips i honestly didnt know the light thing in Lery's for gens thats good to know if im not using deja vu

[@liquidxfoxx007]

I had no idea of some of this things, like the signs, this will come in handy.

[@Milan94492]

7:05 Additional info for new players. It’s true, however The Legion and The Mastermind aka Albert Wesker can vault pallets when they use their power.

[@denisbalica9106]

The funiest girl in dbd i hope you hit 100k soon 🙏💖

[@martinpatrik6670]

Thank you for the vid. I just started again but on computer ( I used to play on x-box) and its very hard to control the game without a controler haha but I guess I will get used to it

[@mewnashi2372]

Something I think should've known from the beginning and I think many new players don't know is that the game isn't about hiding and not getting found but rather about learning how to loop and waste the killers time for the Team. Before I started DBD this year I only knew how the game was back when it got released and many played it as that hide and seek game and it took me a while to realize that it's the wrong approach to it. Since then I think I have improved as survivor tho I do kinda miss the hide and seek aspect of it but as a mainly killer player I know how frustrating it is when everyone hides all game xD

[@weskershades]

Really hope they update the tutorial, or even had some guides like this for specific things like how TCM and games have some slide shows with things they could have some about skillchecks and different things since not everything could fit into a tutorial. I know we get tooltips but something we could open at all times not just loading into a match would be handy.

[@RenegadeGrape]

Wow I just started playing with my friends I love your videos! Please make more guides ❤

[@thewood5962]

Played this game on and off since it came out and even I didn't know there was no difference in wiggle progression on great skill checks... Great guide 😅

[@Man_of_Duty]

Me watching this cuz I'm brand new at DBD this is a goated tutorial for us thx for the tips and tricks ❤

[@user-vm7qu9bv1t]

Haven’t played in the last 5 years thanks for this

[@4ngiel0ver]

You dont need to hold M1 on gens and other objectives, theres a setting to switch it to "toggle" which means that you only have to click on it once, but you do have to click again to cancel

[@yeisongameplays]

Saving for when I get friends joining DBD, great explanations!

[@ProbablyMish]

Thank you so much!! I love seeing so many people excited to share with friends

[@Micah_nm]

Great tutorial the only thing I would add is you keep using the term Tile and I’m afraid a newer player might not be familiar with the term I feel like another great video idea would be to explain all of the dead by daylight terms because there’s so many that it can definitely be confusing, over all Great video ❤

[@uptillfour4150]

Idk if anything has changed about hatch but to add - hatch spawns on the 1st level. There’s some map exceptions but the majority of the time, get yourself to the 1st level of a 2 story map if you’re the last survivor.

[@xthepopeslubexpsn1595]

as someone who just bought this game.. Im happy I came across this video, now maybe i wont be complete trash going in lol

[@kimmiek0]

I'm playing on a phone. and my thumbs get so numb when trying to maneuver. thank you for this much more in depth intro.

[@Snow-cl4ns]

My biggest tip that I share to new players is to play to your strengths. My chases aren't great since I'm still practicing them and it influences the perks I bring. Since I'm not good in chase, I bring perks that help my team so I'm not completely useless! Also, Windows of Opportunity from Kate Densen is a LIFESAVER!!

[@Basvra]

I just passed 300 hours so I’m not too new but I actually learned a few things from this. Thanks mish!! 🖤

[@justmavi7999]

[@weskieee]

mishy ty for this tutorial it taught me a lot about dbd that i didnt know about ❤

[@bennettcombs7784]

i am really new and i have played killer once and i think survivor two or three times so thank you so much i die so quick cause the killer when i will get off the hook comes back till im dead i think a perk has them track me but that looping will be useful.

[@nw2831]

Super helpful, thank you Mish!!!

[@anfernyjackson9013]

looping question that i've heard different things about; when you are looping a structure, many people recommend to just use a/d strafe keys and cam movement to loop around structures, others say use strafe plus forward/back, making sure your slightly 'pushing' into the wall (though can get stuck during cornering). while ultimately if you are good at both it won't matter, is there one that is easier for beginners?

[@justashit2835]

ty so much everything confuses me and this guide helped a lot

Legion and wesker can vault pallets with there power and chucky can go under and vecna can fly over it, No offense but i feel like people should know just in case!

[@eowy3489]

[@razbertignacio]

Please make a tutorial on how to counter killers it would be really helpful to me as a survivor main since i rarely buy killers to try them out myself and learn what they can do. Tysm Mish love ur streams

[@MyKittyPony]

I play for years dbd but this tutorial is so great for begginers thank you 😊😊

[@YourAverageBroccoli]

very nice tutorial And also don't forget that whenever you go against a Pig, YOU NEED TO BOOP THE SNOOT, otherwise you have a chance of 69% to not get hatch in endgame

[@aliabobina]

only boop her snoot if she initiates it

[@Cheezyfingerz25]

I like that you didn’t include imaginary rules “the killer isn’t supposed to tunnel, that means they suck” and instead you said “survivors should work as a team by taking hits/chase”. You should make a video on the statuses (endurance, exhausted, etc.) and unaliver items :)
