Yeah it's really funny, I reported it a couple of days ago because he can do every singular action possible which honestly if used right can make him kinda broken. But they more than likely won't killswitch him sadly since he's a new chapter.

Hey there! Game developer here (no, I don't work for BHVR or are affiliated with them) but the Steam Settings related to Steam Datagram Relay(SDR)/Steam Networking has no effect when playing DbD as they don't utilize SDR nor do they use Steam Sockets which would obfuscate your IP Address into a steam.{SteamID64} address when playing the game. SDR is cross-platform, but to utilize it whenever they use Gamelift would more than likely be a challenge. Using a VPN would be the best bet to protect yourself currently if you do decide to play.

You cannot find them on the game, but the old website still has them. Go here: http://archive.deadbydaylight.com/manual/

Also - more info I just found which is kind of whack. https://www.reddit.com/r/deadbydaylight/comments/hzfu94/patch_notes_410_midchapter/fzjishg/?context=3

And to add onto this, League also has another ranked queue, "Ranked Flex". Not to be confused with "Ranked Solo/Duo"(I'm sure you can see what that implies there). In Flex, you can play with all your friends in a ranked environment. DbD shouldn't have separate queues as that will just divide the playerbase even more and with already struggling matchmaking, that could only make things worse.

I don't want to seem mean at all, but this has been requested since 2016. They've stated many times they'd look into it, and that's all I've seen stated.

Still there's no server in Russia...
I mean, that's legitimately on Amazon's side.
@pAncrop900 said:
Omg why amazon server?i think they should use microsoft servers, much more adapted and used for gaming
Do you mean Microsoft's Azure? I do agree they should use Azure, but I don't think they're going to switch.

Well, they're using Amazon GameLift just like DEATHGARDEN. If you are wondering where the server locations/data centers are:
US East (N. Virginia and Ohio), US West (Oregon and N. California), Central Canada (Montreal), EU Central (Frankfurt), EU West (London and Ireland), Asia Pacific South (Mumbai), Asia Pacific Northeast (Seoul and Tokyo), Asia Pacific Southeast (Singapore and Sydney), AWS China (Beijing) Region, operated by Sinnet, and South America East (São Paulo). OR you can refer here: https://aws.amazon.com/gamelift/faq/ Under Instance and Fleets.

Honestly, from the first time I seen the game in beta my immediate thoughts were, "This looks fantastic and I want it." And I did, I bought the game ~1 month after release and believe it or not I played 6 hours and I was like, "This game sucks and Killers are OP". I quit, but something always lingered around about the game and it drew me back in January 2017. From then, everything was just so much fun. From running from the killers, to chasing survivors through the very very fantastic Blood Lodge with about 63 Pallets; I was just having the most fun I've had in a game ever. Since then I've accumulated over 3.5k hours(across multiple accounts) as each match I get into is just a different experience. Whether I play the "OP" Leatherface or just sit back and bing my bong as Philip; it's just a genuine experience each time I launch the game and it satisfies me that there is no game that is quite like this. Dead by Daylight just feels fantastic to me, even though the game does have it's issues from time to time.

@Angelicus23 whenever you get the time, can you give me that Variety article?

I adore the grind in this game, making something like this would just make the game less worthwhile to play cause you wouldn't have to play as much and that's what I feel is great about the game you have to play a lot in order to get things. So, I personally don't think this should be a thing :/
-
I just wanna do a slight bump @not_Queen @Peanits @McLean if I could get someone to talk and discuss more about this, I'd love to know more :o
-
If they go through a known service provider, like Amazon Web Services' GameLift, then they can introduce South American Servers as well as NA, EU, AU, and Asia Servers so you'll still be able to play. If they somehow don't, then that's their ######### up when they can easily do so 🤷♀️

On what windows do you get teleported back on?

@LezardValeth said:
Oh, I havent gotten all 30 yet. I thought you need 30, spend the 30 then get another 30 to get the other survivor skin. Thanks for the heads up.yeah, you have to play Killer to get the other 30 vials lol
-
@LezardValeth said:
Does that mean you have to spend the 30 vials in order to get the bonus BP? If thats the case it sucks being a survivor then. You get both the skins and then you have to play a killer to get more BP.So what it means that once you get 30/30 vials on Survivor, you don't get anymore Bonus BP, therefore making the offerings useless.
if you spend vials, your total doesn't change.
-
This is how I see it, "Here's a really cool event that we made really cool skins for, but you can only unlock a complete outfit or 3 Individual Pieces of different outfits, but we'll allow you to buy it all with real money and ignore the grind."
BHVR passed up a great opportunity for a grind and exclusive cosmetics. I don't know what they're thinking. Just money-hungry it seems

-
That takes away more fo the grind.

@TOXICCLAUDETTEMAIN said:
To help with the intense grind how about you don't lose perks, add ons and offerings. Also i prestige 2 my trapper and i got the mask but when i p2 my nurse, huntress, billy and clown i got the their bloody bodies?There would be no "incentive" to prestiging then. zzzzz terrible suggestion.
@goat10em said:
I will never again prestige. Just did my hag and it was the worse decision ever. Got her back up to level 50 and never once got ruin in the blood web. Stuck with ruin 1 now and no matter how many more blood webs i go through it isn't there.It's all RNG.

@powerbats said:
There's Boil Over the Kate Denson perk which is 25/50/75% ore to your struggling and you obscure hooks within x distance.It doesn't increase the rate at which you wiggle, but the wiggling effect (i.e. the side to side movement) which makes the killer bump into thing.
-
Imagine using Scratched Mirror and not wanting to go to either of those maps lmao
He doesn't need Bloodlust, though it was upsetting when they removed it from him. -
@Th3Nightmare said:
Is a good idea 5 vs 16 perks.Most Killer Perks are really strong. I don't find 5 perks is needed.

@Nightmare_Eyes said:
They never are.. especially with most killers running Iron Grip. Getting across the map with a survivor is a cake walk.Iron Grasp is a meme. Don't act like it's a god tier perk

@Slowpone said:
First of all, lithe should work every time you FAST- Vault a window, not when the killer is chasing you(Please change that cause sometimes the chase ends but the killer doesnt lose you, and you want to sprint away but lithe doesnt work). Second, why is balanced landing a rare perk and it reduces the landing cooldown, and lithe is a very rare and doesnt do anything but give u a sprint burst? Can you change it so that it makes your vaults faster atlaest by 10%-15%?Sprint Burst was always and still is the best exhaustion perk. 90% of players use it and 10% use other exhaustion perks. The upcoming nerf is going to make all other exhaustion perks useless if the killers run some exhaustion addon, but not print burst. Here is a way to make it more balanced: instead of giving a speed buff for 3 seconds, it only gives it for 2 seconds.
This way the other exhaustion perks would be also good. Sprint gives you an instant speed buff, but only for 2 sec. Balanced Landing and Lithe give you 3 sec speed buff but you have to do something in order to activate them.ALSOOOOOOOO, PlEASE ADD SOMETHING TO JUMP OFF IN SHELTER WOODS IN ORDER FOR BALANCED LADNING TO WORK. RIGHT NOW THE ONLY OPTION IS THE BASEMENT STAIRS ON THAT MAP.
Lithe is perfectly fine. Sprint Burst is the only singular exhaustion perk that is annoying. Killer is on your ass? Just Sprint Burst away. The other exhaustion perks require something to happen and I find that's balanced.

Look, dude, Dead Hard was a game breaking perk when it was introduced as is. Survivor is supposed to be a stealth game, meaning you're to try your best to never get that close to a killer. It's like Decisive Strike & hatch escape in that the survivor using it is being rewarded for failure in the face of a killer who is actually playing his/her game to the best of abilities. You shouldn't worry over perks that require the killer to be in your face or to have hit you to activate. Find a stealth build that helps you do gens and vanish into the shadows before the killer gets line of sight on you. Also, don't fret the hooked teammates. Do gens first. Do a rescue when the killer is obviously busy with a chase far from the hook (aura perks can help sense that). If there's one or more teammates intent on swarming the hook then let them. Get those gens done because your ultimate goal is to survive to escape (& not by the hatch, please).@Onehouse said:

I'm a killer main and once I swing and they Dead Hard I know they have it for the rest of the game. I can put pressure in chases knowing they have that perk. It's not game-breaking. It's not like other exhaustion perks. Don't make it seem that way.

Exactly, BHVR should get a known Dead by Daylight community member to host it; Tyde would be an amazing choice because he's done things like that before. Hopefully, BHVR can come to reason to these things themselves.
-
Thanks for the extra input you guys, hopefully someone from BHVR can notice this thread and then either make corrections or change everything up about the tournament.

Were they the Killer, or Survivor in your match?

The self-promotion in the chat by moderators is also funny to watch.I don't understand people, honestly.
@Lowbei said:
the whole thing is embarrassing, but bhvr doesnt care about your criticism and will be using space esports for future events as well.Extremely embarassing. If anyone at BHVR would like to see the professional manner conveyed; here's a clip: https://clips.twitch.tv/CrazyEndearingMeatloafHassanChop

@Rob_Zombi3 said:
Preach it brother.I made a thread having similar issue with Space casting the tournament - unprepared, unprofessional and having wierd attitude about casting. Loud music intermezzos and more.
I kinda lost it when the guy on the screen said he doesnt care about negativite feedback (I would see it about insults but otherwise not), its just good viewiers count for him anyway. I was astonished and sad at the same time.
Exactly, he should've accepted the criticism and not be in that matter.
@NightRaider315 said:
Agreed bro the commentators looked like they didn’t know much on the game. I watched a YouTuber TydeTyme’s DBD tournaments and it was obvious he knew way more than these commentators. This is also my opinion and I believe for future tournaments they should have commentators who are more familiar with the game.Tyde's Tournament was much more professional than this "ESports Company".
@Dustin said:
I can live with the average commentary but there's quite a few moments where the stream starts dropping frames. Also personal peeve but their music is quite obnoxious compared to the tone Dead by Daylight has but again personal peeve.Also I don't find watching a tournament of DBD too different or interesting compared to a normal Dead by Daylight stream because there's seemingly no special camera mode for people specifically in the spectator role. It's just the same as being dead in a normal game. Would be cool if there was a free cam for the spectator role or a picture in picture mode where we could see two perspectives at once.
Before I forget they could also reduce the amount of sponsors that are shown on screen. Half the screen is an overlay and it's more annoying than anything.

I could be acting petty about it but I personally don't need to be reminded what tournament I'm watching on the screen when it's the title of the twitch stream. I'm not intentionally trying to hate on the stream but for future tournaments maybe take this as constructive criticism on improving the viewer experience.
There is too much on the screen and at moments it's just too distracting. Hopefully someone from BHVR sees this and takes this feedback.

I lost a few legacy items last year, and when I sent an email to support about it this is the reply I got.
"I'm really sorry for the trouble. Although the lost Legacy Prestige is important, we can't address this issue right away. I assure you that your lost Legacy will be addressed in the future."
I haven't heard any official word on it though.
I got bloodpoint compensation as I lost my save, and that's the reply they sent on the cosmetic issue I had.Thanks for your response, it's appreciated. I've heard of people getting back their Lost Legacy, but I have no clue if that was true or not. I know there was a BHVR Dev/Mod in a Twitch Stream once before and he said he could help with getting back the lost legacy, though I don't know about now though.
