  • I think a part of my brain just oozed out of my ears. I can't make heads or tails of this post. Killers are cheating or feeling cheated what is going on?

  • 27 even with both chapter 1 and 2 fully completed.

  • If we're talking perfect game as in 32k max points it has always been easier to accomplish that as killer, not because they're 'better' but because they're in the match the longest. Though given the recent changes to survivor point gains and nerfs to killers I've had pretty good success in outscoring the killer as a rank 1 survivor. Good success being in over 70% of my games I'll outscore the killer by at least 5k and maybe 30% of those with 10k+ leads.

  • I think what he's getting at is it's a survivor master challenge and not a killer master challenge. Don't think it'll be a bug as it's just a wording error.

  • It's always funny reading these nerf mori threads. It shows who wasn't around back when mori was actually brokenly strong. Back when a Billy could race across the map, down someone in the first 15 seconds of the game and then instantly remove them with a mori, no hook need. Mori offerings were already nerfed to require the killer to hook first before they can use it and that's a perfect middle ground balance for it. Requiring survivors to be on death hook before they can be moried would be pointless for killers. Why even run a mori at that point when they're already on death hook? You're not going to be saving yourself much time since most mori animations are decently long save for the Pig. Why waste the offering slot with a mori when you can use BP or map offerings in its place? The ebony and ivory mori really don't need any further change. There's no other way to nerf it without the offering becoming pointless to use tactically.

    Little edit cause I forgot to add that if you can't mori a survivor till they're already death hook, then why mori and purposely give up the BP and emblem score? If they're already death hook you might as well get that last hook in and not penalize yourself as killer. The mori would lose its strategic use AND still hurt the killer point wise.

  • Rituals are going to be the opposite of what you play. If you play nothing but killer expect to get a lot of survivor rituals and vice versa. It's to push you to play both sides.

  • Pretty sure they said the next killer and survivor would be teased during the first archive back when they were announcing the archive on stream. If that holds out then it should be the Siren and female detective that was revealed in chapter 4.

  • Aw don't show us bunny feng, my heart can't take that it'll never happen.

  • Snap out of it also takes you back down to tier 1 instead of tier 2.

  • This is every killer game for me since hitting rank 14, even now that I've clawed my way up to rank 8 I still see nothing but rank 3s or higher in every game.

  • I've heard it'll come with the next mid-chapter update but that's just speculation.

  • Definitely not the only one, even after getting all 4 tome chapter epilogues I'm only on level 20 of the rift.

  • DBD likes to run really hot on the PS4/Pro during the countdown and menus. This is the first I've heard about a PS4 shutting down from it but there's a few steps you can take. One is to make sure you have a minimum of 1.5-2 feet of open space on all sides of your console. If one side is cut off from proper air flow it can cause the system to overheat.

    Second and this is probably the most important cause so few people know about it and how to do it. You need to pop the top off your console, to do this pull up and the corners at the front of the console, you'll hear a few pops and then the top can easily slide off. This'll give you access to the fan which you'll want to clean from any dust build up. Use either a can of compressed air or a very very soft cloth and be easy with the blades. With the top off and a can of air you can also reach the heat sink inside the console as it sits just right behind the fan, you'll want to blow air into that and clean it out as best you can. It's very easy for dust, hair and other things to get stuck in the heat sink as it's basically just a bunch of small metal rods lumped closely together. (advise watching a youtube video to learn more on how to properly clean out the system.)

    If you continue to have issues with your console shutting down after doing these two steps you may need to get a new console as there could be something malfunctioning with yours.

    (Another thing you can try though I'm unsure it'll have any impact is you can rebuild your database. This will "defrag" the console and can cause it to run faster and better. You can do this by turning the console off, then using the button on the console itself to turn it back on, hold the button down though till you hear a second beep, this'll take you to the proper menu.)

  • Unfortunately none of this has worked, deleting and reinstalling the game, restoring licenses, deactivating and reactivating primary console, rebuilding database, clearing cache, nothing.

  • I can't just reinstall a specific DLC it doesn't work that way on ps4. You have to delete the entire game.

  • Seeing her power has left a bad taste in my mouth and given that I'm on PS4 I'm betting I'll get into the fallout 76 Beta in October before she gets released to us.

  • I'm banking on sometime in December since I'm on PS4. Though at that point I'll be on Fallout 76

  • Oh yes, yes it does. I use it every game, it's better than ruin in my opinion cause survivors love to focus on healing over gen repair.

  • For one there is that perk, good to use if you need points. Second don't be afraid to go for hook saves, if you think you can't get a safe hook save then run barrowed time. Thirdly and probably most important right now, do gens TOGETHER with another survivor, don't do them solo. The current system will allow you to max out on objective points if you do a little over 2 gens with another survivor. Just getting one gen done with another survivor will fill your object circle 2/3rds of the way.

    Hooking survivors and reloading after hooking causes FPS drops.

  • I'm starting to feel the same way. I started playing with friends recently and got up to rank 3 and when I play solo I still maintain the rank and even continue to pip but it does leave me wondering if I really should be up in red rank.

  • 100% agree! She needs more skirts and better physics on her clothes. Also where the ######### is my bunny hoodie god dammit?!

  • It'll come out a few hours after the event ends.

  • Bunny Feng... with a shorter skirt... :(

  • Yes, yes we can. I've been against him numerous times already. I've also run into teammates playing Kate.

  • I'm not that bothered by not having the clown or kate just yet. Wish we did get auric cells though so I can actually get the clothes I want... Still making good use of the event to get all my other survivors done and get every single perk on Feng and then working on killer some.

    Actions: Roaming the map, chasing survivors, using chainsaw sprint, kicking gens, vaulting, moving the camera.
    Other information: During chases the game would freeze for 1-2 seconds and moving the camera would cause it to 'skip' and 'jerk' in random directions.

  • Try restarting your game, sometimes lobbies get bugged and you just have to restart to fix it.

  • The event should start in one hour.

  • I made a post about this back in the technical issues section. FPS as a killer is a horrid ######### show right now, frames dipping as low as 10-15 FPS, jerky camera and sort freezes/pauses during chases. Almost impossible to play and do well. Before the patch the game was very nice and smooth for me on my PS4 Pro but now I just don't want to even play.

    But it means we are having Double BP without the DLC 🤯 

    It’s time to start smacking people with a electric baseball bat

    How will you do any smacking when there is no DLC with 2.0.0 tomorrow?

    Agreed, if you read their post it's not only the DLC with the Clown and Kate that will be coming later but Auric Cells as well. So I suppose you can save up shards for some stuff but don't expect to go on any big shopping spree tomorrow for cosmetics.

    Let's get this out of the way since it didn't happen today. It won't be tomorrow because it's the 4th. It will most likely be Thursday of this week. As for the shrine for Xbox and Pc players as you keep telling console especially PS4 players suck it up cupcakes.

    They wouldn't hold the patch and dlc back for the entire world just because America is on holiday nor would they release to everyone else BUT America because it's a holiday. It'll either be out tomorrow or Thursday.

  • God do I miss Soul Reaver… picked it up on PC but it's not a good port, really hard to play.

  • If it rolls out like it did on Xbox we should have everything within the next 24-48 hours. The 2.0 patch, access to the store and the new Curtain Call DLC. Also the Shrine should hopefully be turned back on for everyone.

  • Regardless if we get the double bp event or not, if the clown and kate aren't out by that time what's the point? Everyone has been sitting on 1 million points and 1k shards already. We want to use the event to level up those characters just like everyone else.

    To be honest you guys probably don't want to get it at this point because when it does come out the game is going to break. PC is having FPS issues since the patch dropped for certain killers and on Xbox the patch has made almost half the killer roster completely unplayable due to frame drops and freezes. When it comes out on PS4 I doubt we'll fair much better in terms of performance. We'll probably plummet hard just like Xbox and we won't even get to play the new killer let alone killers like Doctor, Nurse, Freddy, etc. due to the frames dropping and the game freezing/crashing. This patch just killed performance on all the platforms.

    Has this been addressed in a hotfix or something?

    I've never once dropped below my capped framerate of 75FPS, including on the new clown killer and throwing my bottles everywhere. Ultra high everything, 1920x1080 res.

    PC's problems occur more with the nurse and having multiple blinks or her black wedding outfit. Xbox is having more problems with FPS for basic killers. I don't know if they've fixed the Nurse issues on PC, I haven't seen anything in their recent patch notes indicating anything.

    I don't believe this is Sony holding the patch back out of laziness or petty reasons. I've been with Sony since as long as I can remember, starting on PS1 and moving up every generation. I strongly believe that Sony is holding the patch back because it's so horribly broken. The 2.0 patch has caused major performance issues on both PC and Xbox One, with Xbox One being practically locked out of half their killer roster due to FPS drops and game freezes and they can't even play the new Clown killer. I feel the reason it's taking so long to come out on PS4 is due to the patch failing certification numerous times because of bugs, glitches or it's just harmful for the console as a whole.

    It hasn't caused performance issues? Xbox cant play clown yet because the DLC hasnt been released, just the 2.0 update. It hasnt failed any certifications. The amount of time it has taken to update is typical of what I am used to when playing Smite on the PS4, where the PC version can get a major update a month before the PS4 version.


    I don't know when you last played Smite or if you check the main website in the news section but when Smite updates on PC the update has always made it to console in the following 12-13 days, like clockwork. It does not take a month or longer to get updates. Our last update with Baron Samedi came out exactly 12 days after it first dropped on PC. And I'll bet you that the next update will come to PS4 next Tuesday/Wednesday on the 10th or 11th. (also yeah [BAD WORD] chests) Sony doesn't take an age and a half to do certification, they've always been fast and prompt unless they find a major bug or flaw. As for the clown DLC on Xbox that did come out a few days ago back on the 27th at midnight when their store updated and everyone YouTube video and twitch stream I watch of Xbox players shows horrible fps issues when playing as him, specifically when winding up to throw the bottle and the actual explosion of the bottle. The particle effects for the gas just kills their fps. Nurse is having FPS problems after blinking and worse if you chain blink more than twice up to the five time max. This is happening even on PC and twitch streamers have already called it out, e.g. True and Marth88. Huntress windup and throwing is also having fps issues as is the Doctor when he uses his shock ability on people. There are issues with 2.0 and it has caused degraded performance on PC and Xbox so for, Xbox being the worst off.

    Smite's updates are rarely as big. As far as I was made aware, the 2.0 update was released but the clown was kept locked so I don't know how you saw that. It is hard to optimise a game for slower devices though without some FPS issues. I watch both True and Marth, and play the game myself, and have not seen them make these complaints, nor have I experienced the issues myself. I saw an FPS issue on Autohaven, but that fixed when I reloaded my game


    That's actually not true, Smite does get some big updates going. Just recently they kicked off a new adventure with a 3v3v3 game mode and a week later even added more variants to it, console got that surprisingly fast after PC, that one only being a week wait I believe instead of the standard 12-13 days. That was a huge multi-gig patch that brought in numerous rewards, a new game mode, new skins, etc.

  • I doubt it would matter, even console users use discord on their phone or laptop/desktop. Hell I do with all my friends and I'm a ps4 player only. Nothing is going to stop people from partying up if they want to.

  • It's not coming back till PS4 gets the 2.0 update. You'll just have to be patient.

  • I'm actually dreading it at this point since the patch is going to bring a lot of performance issues. Xbox has been reduced to a state of almost unplayability for killers due to horrific FPS issues. Even PC is having FPS issues with certain killers and cosmetics. What good is it coming to PS4 now when it does arrive we won't get to play the clown without our game freezing or crashing all together? And killers who prefer Doctor, Huntress, Nurse and even Billy are going to have to stop playing.

  • You guys are in for a rough time when the mid chapter patch comes at the end of July, BBQ won't be the only perk to offer aura reading anymore. A lot of perks are getting changed to offer it and for a much longer period of time and range.

  • Can't say I'm excited at this point, seeing as my favorite killer is now having big FPS problems even on PC I can't imagine the Nurse will be playable on PS4. Not to mention the other killers that are having issues on the console with the release of 2.0. Doctor, Huntress, Nurse, Clown and I think even Hillbilly are having issues and are practically unplayable on Xbox due to frame issues. So what luck does PS4 have?
