Hey guys, I am new to playing this on PC (got over 2k hours played on console) what are some things I need to get used to / Learn that differs from Console to PC? I know starting over sucks but I fear with new consoles coming out here soon that it's a good time to join the PC community! Any help, thoughts or tips to help me on PC would be great!

    The biggest changes will prolly be Post Chat you will see a lot more nurses and you will also have to get use to the obvious differences with KB and Mouse

    Yeah I think KB and Mouse will be way more effective though. Post Chat I can't wait for actually as it'll stop the spam of my Xbox Messages post game haha. More Nurses I can't wait for!

    Smart choice, switching over from Console DBD to PC DBD. Very smart.

    1. The loops are going to be easier to get tighter turns on.
    2. 360s, 180s, and the like are going to be easier to perform with most likely better results (assuming you're not going to be using controller anymore)
    3. There is going to be more unreasonable post-game salt.
    4. High ranks there are a lot of nurses and billies, really good and annoying ones.
    5. PC obviously gets their updates faster, but everyone already knows that. Just be prepared to keep an eye on them more-so than you would if you were playing on console. I say this because it's easy to fall into a habit of not keeping up-to-date, ESPECIALLY when console players receive said updates, so much later than PC.
    6. EDIT: Oh yeah, as the fellow up there was saying, skill checks may be harder/easier based on what keyboard you use. If you have a decent one, they'll prove to be easier than console, and much more accurate. I recommend a Corsair keyboard, more specifically a Corsair K70, red switches.

    I'll add some more to this thread if I can think of any. I still highly recommend using Keyboard and Mouse, as it puts out better performance in my opinion, and playing with controller against KB/M players can be difficult. You'll notice the difference.

    I’ll be using kb and mouse. I’ll be using a Razer KB and Mouse just don’t know what ones quite yet! Just can’t wait to get back into it and getting what I had on console back. Sucks relearning the controls though!

    Currently there is undergoing PTB. You can enjoy one of a few benefits of beiing a PC player and go test Ghostface and give your feedback on him.

    PC won’t be here until probably after he is taken off the PTB :(

    Be ready for killers being able to actually hit you and not needing to "crab walk" with their attacks.

    Oh, and there's Bill. He's cool.

    Can’t wait, and yeah idk if I’ll use him though, don’t run Borrowed time.
