Yes, as the person above said, there is no way to do it on consoles because you cannot download non-game assets, especially not on a Sony device. Even games like Fallout 4 and Skyrim which can be modded on consoles now, Sony does not allow "External Assets" which greatly limits the mods available to Playstation players vs. Xbox players.

I've been saying this since it was on PTB (and I always get a reply from Rizzo but I don't see the notification until the PTB forums are closed, which means I can never actually read what Rizzo said to me)

They've already said that they won't be able to do licensed properties, but instead his extra cosmetics will be original creations in his quirky style. As wonderful as it would be to get outfits from his movies, that would require a separate license for each skin and that's just not feasible. To paraphrase what he told them (The actual quote you can get from the 7th annversary stream) "Make sure they're clothes I would wear."

Most of them no, though there are a few that are IN THIS GAME as they were once part of a RIft, but sadly they haven't ever been put in the store. That is Nea's "System Smasher" outfit, Legion (Joey)'s "Rabid Seadog" and... one for Billy that I forget the name of. In fact, Rabid Seadog is literally the only Legion outfit I don't have.

The other day I was using a medkit without any addons, to heal myself. I failed a skill check. After that, I hit 3 great skill checks. 3. And it wasn't enough to fully heal me. It feels wrong. How are 3 great skill checks not enough to compensate for the loss of healing progress due to 1 failed skill check?
I promise you, with the medkits in their current state, reverting the healing progress bonus on great skill checks won't make healing OP again.
The problem is you kept trying... When you miss a skill check on healing, there is about a 3 second window where you are UNABLE TO HEAL. So you are using up your charge for NO PROGRESS. Knowing this, if you miss a check, STOP. Wait a few seconds then start healing again.

Why don't they just remove the exit gates? Soon as the last generator is finished, all survivors not on a hook escape, those on a hook die? Having to go save someone and run to the door? BORING.

I am reminded of Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri. Released in 1999, it had extensive color blind options from the start, and I remember my best friend who is red/green colorblind loved that game. When i, as a non-colorblind person tried the settings she played with, it looked terrible to me and all washed out and drab, and so I asked her about it and she said it was one of the best games she'd ever played. Like, they had actually someone like her work on and test the colorblind mode to make sure it looked great. This was in NINETEEN-NIGHTY-NINE. Why can't companies do this today?

Let me ask you this.
If I, as killer enter a game with perfectly matched survivors, what should I expect as a good game? 1K? 2K? 4K?
If I, as survivor enter a game vs. a perfectly matched killer, what should I eexpect as a good game? Does 2 of the 4 survivors escape? Does only 1 escape via hatch? Does that escaped survivor have to be me?
That is the biggest problem that will NEVER be solved. Every single player has their idea of what a "Good game" is... How many players DC the second they are downed? OBviously they expect to get a full escape without ever being downed even once. That's not reasonable, but is is for them. The matchmaking is bad because it had the audacity to put them against a killer that is too good for them. But wait, the opposite? Well, they looped that killer for 5 gen and got out and the killer didn't even injure them well, then that was a great game, perfect match and they will make sure to say "gg ez" to the killer. Yes, I know not every player is like that, but the problem is just the fact that no matter what matchmaking they try, the 'good game' conditions of every player is different.
-
I understand your sentiment, but... I kind of feel the other way.
To me, listening to the music of an artist who has passed or a movie, or even heck... The TV show Westworld. My father's favorite movie was Westworld, but he passed in 1999. So he never got to see the TV show, but I know he would have LOVED IT. So that's why I love it so much. When I watch it, it comforts me to imagine my dad there watching it with me.
If you can't see it that way, I completely understand, but if you can flip the script so to speak, you can maybe turn it around and play FOR Puppers, you know?

I feel like this speaks more about your skill level than you realize
Maybe the opposite direction of where you think you're at.
Just an idea though.
Yes, but it also means that a SWF is not "Literally unstoppable." Even if I was the only player in the entirety of the game (and I am not) able to go against a SWF and get a 4K, they wouldn't be "Literally unstoppable"
-
My "Perkless Pig" build begs to differ. I play Pig with Blood Warden, Remember Me, No Way Out, and Terminus and a good 75% of games STILL end before the last generator is completed. Meaning I never got value from any of my perks. Therefore I had no perks.
But please, tell me again how SWF without Gen Regression is LITERALLY UNSTOPPABLE.

that part is true but it is pretty hard to depip as a killer unless you get no hooks for the most part...if the dcs are early you get your gatekeeper maxed and you should be able to get enough chases
Depends on how quickly they repair the remaining generators and how high your rank is AN how often it happens. Its just a reaon why depipping needs to go.

What are some changes you guys would like to see in game. Could be from addon changes, to qol to killer power tweaks etc. ill go first:
Killer:
- Furtive Chase is trash we all know that so maybe instead of reducing the TR it could make every other player not in chase oblivious for the duration of the chase, and if u down that surv the effect could linger for 25/35/45 secs or something like that
- Deerstalker and Insidious are both perks stuck in year one, they should rework them completely to actually do something.
- Zanshin Tactics is garbage, as it takes a perk slot and barely does anything. It could instead allow you to do certain actions such as vaulting windows and breaking pallets crazy fast the longer the chase lasts. Or something like that.
- Skull Merchant: delete her. Seriously tired of hour long matches tbh.
- some addons really need to be changed/tweaked/buffed. like most of PH’s addons tbh.
Survivor:
- complete addon overhaul tbh. A lot of addons are a waste of bp, and we are forced to buy in order to advance the bloodweb. Even gimmick addons are better than the surgical suture tbh.
- Green Map should be reworked, no one uses them as they only track gens, and are not worth any addons. Since they dont provide enough utility to the map.
- Autodidact should have and errata that says “at least one skill check is guaranteed with each full heal”. So the perk becomes more viable in light of Medkit nerfs
- Visionary should not deactivate ever. It’s not a good perk to begin with, deactivating itself just makes it worthless.
- Corrective Action should just turn mistakes/good skill checks into Great SC. And thats it
QOL: fix collision on some objects. Namely the table in Bedham and certain rocks in Suffocation Pit. Where their hitbox extends beyond these objects themselves.
Nurse: Delete Her. Seriously tired of a killer that can just instantly cross the map.

i just feel bad for the rest of the survivor team if the dc happens as soon as they hear a killer's aura they don't like. I let the rest of the survivors at least get a safety pip if they want it.
Yea, but what about my safety pip? Can't tell you how many times I've depipped because half the survivors DCed.
-
What I hated about it was it was automatic. Whether to Mori or how many survivors to Mori should be a choice the killer makes with offerings or perks. I say that as a player of both sides.
Does anyone honestly hate the current Mori system for a reason other than they are a veteran player from when it was broken AF? I hear from BHVR that players think that the Mori system is "toxic" and yet... I've never heard that from an actual player... So, who out there is such a player? Please, explain to me what is so toxic?

@Skill_issue said:
As killer: what is the proper etiquette if a survivor is afk at the beginning of the match? Do you go slug them and leave, hit them once and leave, ignore them and chase the teammate, down them and hook them?
As killer: do you give the last survivor hatch if they stop wiggling on your shoulders/is the last one left or do you fight for the 4k?
As survivor: what is the proper etiquette when you open the exit gate? Do you farm with the killer? Offer your item? Do the butt dance to rub it in?
For both: if a survivor disconnects do you show mercy and farm or just finish the game as quickly as possible?
For both: if a survivor offers their item do you show mercy or hook them regardless?
For me if I am playing a low tier killer I go for the early hook otherwise I ignore the afk survivor, show mercy if a disconnect happens/an item is offered, and only worry about a 3k
and as a survivor I leave as soon as my teammates are safe(sometimes I leave my item behind) and if a disconnect happens I usually farm with the killer depending on how many gens we have done as a team.
What are your thoughts on proper etiquette in dbd?
- I hook them, but don't camp.
- Depends on if they booped (Pig only) or if they were taunting me with a flashlight and teabagging the entire match.
- Depends on how the match went, but if the killer was sporting and didn't camp or tunnel, then sometimes I'll leave a "gift".
- With how often survivors get salty and disconnect the second their ego is hurt, no mercy from me as killer nor do I expect it as survivor.
- Depending on how they played up to that point. At the very least if I saw a White Ward then I might shake my head no and let them pick it back up.
-
I mean I don't really see an issue with it. Huntress with the skill to effectively use Iridescent Hatchets is pretty rare, and honestly if they are that good with their hatchets, they maybe save what 5 seconds? They are going to hit you again as soon as the cooldown is over.

Lmao is this a joke?
That's an absolutely wild take. "Yeah I'd like them to make the actual content more expensive so that I can afford more cosmetics 😡"
The skins are priced that way so that they can make the actual characters and gameplay content cheaper and more accessible? This has always been the case?
Would it be better if new characters were only available in Rifts and unlockable at tier 45? 👀 And for that matter, you can get so many damn cosmetics for $10 in the Rift. And if you play, you'll never pay for the Rift more than once. I've straight up bought maybe two skins in my life with Cells, a few with Shards (of which I still have over 90k), and have gotten so many straight up for free or from the Rift?
DbD has the least predatory monetization of any online game I've played. I'm absolutely flabbergasted by this atrocity of an open letter, BHVR please don't listen to these people lol

-
I don't have that skin yet, but the voice overs for all the characters are kind of sparse. They don't want to spam them, so they don't always play in the lobby. If you're in a SWF and there is a long queue time, then you're more likely to hear them, at least for the others, I assume Ashy Slashy is the same.
-
I love to run Blood Warden, No Way Out, Remember Me, and Terminus. Then I bring Video Tape and Crate of Gears. I call it my "Perkless Pig" build cause of how often I get a 4K before even the last generator is done... without tunneling, camping, or slugging. So fun.
-
Yeah, as others have said, its a gesture of sportsmanship. Like one recent game I was Claire Redfield in a SWF with a streamer friend against a Pig that while she had killed one of us, she was very sporting and wasn't camping or tunneling at all. So when the last generator was finished, she decided to let us all out. So right before end game collapse, I ran over and hopped into a locker and crafted a flashbang. She came up to the locker, I got out, she looked at me, and I set the flashbang down. I didn't throw it, I set it down as a gift. She nodded in 'thanks' and I left.
Heck, I've even been known to leave behind my item even when I've brought a White Ward if the killer is particularly sporting.
-
The fact that you can get everything for free except for licensed content (which they cannot give for free due to having to pay the license) means that they need to have some way to make up that money, so they do so with cosmetics. Which are COMPLETELY OPTIONAL. I have Jill Valentine, I can play Jill Valentine. Do I NEED Claire Redfield? Nope. Jill and her perks are 100% playable without me owning Claire Redfield. So, Claire costs what she costs, again because they need to pay the license and because the Claire Redfield legendary is not required to play Jill nor to use Jill's perks.
As for time-limited stuff, yea it kinda sucks that I can't go into the store right now and buy Trapper Krampus but... well, I can get him this December and... maybe I'll use him outside of December, but probably not.
That said, yes I am a Claire main and BHVR please give us this:

I'm talking about the hay bale on the other side. The one that you can only get on by vaulting.
What you described is no problem at all and not what I was referring to. It is pretty easy to mind game the right side of the harvester. The left side is a problem though. The killer should be able to hit a survivor there but this is currently not working as intended. They fixed it along with the map rework but now it's broken again.
Aaaaah okay.
-
So I was Pig on Raccoon City (forget if it was East or West) and I was running my "perkless Pig" build where I run Blood Warden, No Way Out, Remember Me, and Terminus, with Video Tape and Crate of Gears for addons I call it such because of how often I get a 4K before all the generators are done, meaning none of my perks activate. 3 of the survivors got pretty lucky and got their traps off pretty quickly, one died to his trap (I did get a hook on him.) I managed to hook 2 of the other survivors, one being left to die on first hook (Didnt' camp or tunnel that survivor.) So then, there is a Bill and an Adam left. Adam has a flashlight and he's all clicking it, taunting me, etc. I start to go after Bill, and no no Adam is flashing at me, so he obviously wants my attention? K. I chase him. He's pretty good at looping, Bill is doing nothing apparently as no generators are popping, so I finally down Bill and hook him, then I am chasing the Adam again and finally down him, hook him. In end game he goes on a rant about how I am Tr*sh and I was tunneling him the entire match... I hooked him ONCE, and every time I started to go after another survivor, he tried to get me to chase him instead. Oh and I was also Tr*sh because I only got the 4K because I was so sweaty on a map that is IMPOSSIBLE for survivor to escape from.

The harvester bug hasn't been fixed yet. It allows a survivor to position on one of the hay bales and become completely unhittable. The killer then has no other choice but to vault the window and follow them around until it gets blocked. Basically the harvesters are just as strong as they used to be before the map rework.
Nah just fake them out, then jump across the little gap as they vault, if you time it right, you can hit them just as they finish the vault. Is it easy? No. But that doesn't mean the harvester is bugged.

@ironblade said:
Survivors will get what they want eventually. A buff to Dead Hard, reverted the healing nerfs, buffed boon circle of healing, etc etc etc etc but let all the gen kicking perks drown in hellfire.
Uh, how did Dead Hard get buffed? Also, they didn't revert the healing nerfs, they toned them down. They were terrible, and I say that as a Pig Main that loves to run an end game build for the lulz of getting a 4K before the last generator is done without any perks. As for Circle of Healing, it didn't get buffed, it got changed in a way that made it need to be restored to it's original healing speed since you can't heal yourself with it anymore.

@Senaxu said:
Hookgrabs are totally fine for me.
However, facecamping(close to hook 60sec +) should be less efficient because it doesn't require a lot of skill and therefore if a killer prefers this way of play it should be considered accordingly that no ranking points(pips) are awarded and in category Chase the points get a heavier penalty similar to unsafe unhooks for survivors.
I agree, except what about when you hook someone and another survivor is right there, then they start looping you... what should I do? Leave and let this survivor get the unhook, or continue to let him loop me around the hook until his friend dies? That's the problem with the entire "proximity to the hook" penalty. Many times I've had survivors be... well, not making smart plays and instead of taking me away from the hook so someone else can get the save, they just keep looping around the hook...

What's wrong with the hold w/ interaction?
Lots of players hate the "hold W game play". It's why "anti-loop" killers like Artist and Knight get so much hate. I no longer follow her anymore because I tired of her constantly complaining, but I used to follow a streamer that every time she faced Artist (or any other killer you can't run in circles for 5 generators) would just send the entire match complaining about the "boring hold W gameplay" she encouraged.

One issue I've noticed with her is that if the survivor hacks a drone, she doesn't get it back until the claw trap disables and the survivor can't hack any more while the claw trap is on them. But if a survivor is dead then that means she has one uncounterable drone. Two survivors dead, two uncounterable drones. If anyone dies before all 5 generators are done, the game can rapidly snowball downhill for the survivors.
That's just one thing but I feel like Skull Merchant is made up of nothing but problems like this. She needs a significant overhaul because as she is now, I don't think she's healthy for the game.
She's not that bad, really. I don't think Nurse is healthy for the game, but she's not getting "fixed" in any signifcant way any time soon. Same with Blight.

I still think that should not be a case once you have a single character prestiged. Like, when Renato and Thalita came out, why can't I use it on them when I have EVERY OTHER CHARACTER at least 3 prestige, most 9+? I get that the idea is for you to become "familiar with the bloodweb" but.. pretty sure I'm familiar with how the bloodweb works now. I could MAYBE see it on a new killer as they do have different things in their bloodwebs in their addons, but overall I still think once you have a survivor at least to Prestige 1, you don't need to become familiar with every character's bloodweb, as they are literally exactly the same (and no the existence of 3 new perks isn't IMO enough to need you to become familiar with how the bloodweb works all over again.)

I'd delete Nurse. I'd much rather go against Skull Merchant than Nurse.

As a killer, is there some sort of way to tell if a survivor has it?
I played a 5hr stint last night, and I noticed something. And either I'm the UNLUCKIEST person on EARTH, or Killers literally have a way of seeing when a survivor is carrying unbreakable.
Every time I carry unbreakable, I am NEVER left slugged. Even in games where ALL of my teammates are slugged, I will ALWAYS be the one that gets picked up and hooked. I started to bring it BECAUSE all of my friends and I would get slugged, but EVERY. SINGLE. TIME there's a slugfest--I am IMMEDAIATELY picked up, I'm never left slugged. Out of the 5hrs of footage, there were 3 instances of team slug or 2man slug--each time, I was picked up first.
Tonight we had 2 more instances of slugging, and I was yet again the ONLY ONE picked up whilst my teammates would be left prone at 99%, unable to get up themselves.
IS there a way for killers to physically see this perk or am I just ungodly, insanely, inconceivably, UN-FREAKING-LUCKY.
I totally understand, its' the same with other perks. Running Distortion? Never procs because killer has no aura perks. Not running Distortion? KIller has Lethal Pursuer, BBQ, etc.

I run Blood Warden, No Way Out, Remember Me, and Terminus on Pig. About 75% of my matches I get a 4K before the perks even activate. I jokingly call it my "Perkless Pig" build, as if the perks never activate, did you need to bring them?

This is so stupid. This game is becoming more and more about money. I feel like it would be worth it if these skins were actually high quality
You do realize that... Dead by Daylight is their actual job, yes? Of course its about money. If they don't charge for things, at least initially, then they will not have a place to live, gas for their cars, food for their families. As for the quality of the cosmetics, well. That's an opinion, and if you don't feel the skins are quality, then... you are not forced to buy them.

My favorite build right now is what I call my "Perkless Pig" build.
Perks: Blood Warden, No Way Out, Remember Me, Terminus.
Addons: Video Tape, Crate of Gears.
So, I pretty much just play normally. If they do get the generators done, I don't care. Thing is, many times they don't. I get a 4K before the last generator is completed.
So I ask you, if your perks never get a chance to come into play, did you even bring them?

I think it's funny. Players scream bloody murder about the "Time-Limited" holiday skins even though they have confirmed they'll be back next holiday season, yet they're disappointed and calling BHVR lazy for not releasing skins Exclusive to Prime. (Which, to be fair one of Haddie's outfits recently put in the store is an old Prime Exclusive)
So, do we want Exclusive skins, or do we not want "shady FOMO tactics"? Can't have both people.
