Yeah, I do think for right now, until they do what they said in the AMA and make Legendaries sub-survivors kind of rather than just outfits, we will never get alternate outfits for them. I hope they are actively working on it.
I want Noir Claire, dangit!
-
We can only hope, but they are far more likely to nerf her, or ignore bugs.. Like currently if a survivor is working on a puzzle box and their trap timer ends, they will not die until they stop working on the box… if they are on their successful box, they get their trap off even though the timer already expired.
-
They did say in an AMA on Reddit that making Legendaries able to have alternate outfits and even their own portraits is something they want to do, and the changes to the selection screen is a step in that direction, but no actual time frame on when it might happen.
Funny enough, one Legendary actually does have their own portrait, it's just… unused. But if you know where to look in your game folders, its there. James Sunderland. In fact, you don't even need to own him or the Silent Hill Chapter for his portrait to be in the game files. -

If a person is adamant about not doing the challenges that arnt for their preferred side or arnt available to be done by either side... they'd essentially just be in the same position they were in with the old tome system. This isn't a new thing nor do I think it's a problem for someone who doesn't play often and refuses to play the other side to maybe not get 100 tiers worth of prizes.
That is incorrect. You used to get Rift fragments from leveling up, you no longer do.

By this I meant that you have to purchase the game… here in Australia I had to purchase the game for $40 and as such that was my fee. On console, the online subscription (which you pay for on monthly/yearly installments) comes with game pass or ps+ which includes dbd as well as other games. Both console and PC technically have to pay to play the game, it's just console companies scamming the average consumer into paying for online services on top of that.
Which I think everyone here understood and you didn't need to remind us. I was specifically talking about how Steam (in my case) does not charge me a monthly fee to play DBD, like Sony and Microsoft do.
Stop moving the goalposts. -

Considering we're talking about over the span of 12 weeks... not really. We're on week 2 and there's already ppl that have finished the milestones.
You do know that there are players who only enjoy one side right? They are now forced to play both sides extensively. That is an issue. Of course, I figure you are likely similar to me and do play both sides, but I have friends who do not find killer fun AT ALL and they only play survivor, and vice versa.

I have a few friends wondering if BHVR knows about this bug, maybe nobody has reported it this time around, but I keep trying to explain that they have marked any new reports as duplicates, which means obviously they DO know the bug still exists.

@angrychuck said:
I hope you are aware that it isn't BHVR that is charging you to play dbd online, that would be the console, so PlayStation, Xbox, Switch. Also I'm not sure that you are aware of the fact that dbd does in fact cost money to play on pc.
How so? I don't pay a monthly fee to play DBD like console gamers do.

Someone's math is severely off then, lol. The Rift pass section would grant a total of 4500 fragments while the milestone portion would grant 3850. That means you'd only need 1650 shards coming from normal gameplay, event challenges like 2v8 and dailies to get all 100 tiers .
Yea but getting ALL the milestones both killer and survivor is still a LOT of gameplay, beyond what many gamers other than streamers do.

They do have a separate category for those. It's called the Milestone and Daily quests.
Also, to OPs comment... you still have the option of 'skipping' the missions you don't want to do. Unlike the old tome missions, you aren't forced to complete some to continue progression. Also unlike the tome missions, which sometimes felt like you had to go out of my way to complete, so far Week 1 and 2 of the new system are progressing for me just by playing the game.
I truly can't understand foks having this many complaints about a system that seems vastly improved toward a casual play experience.
Actually someone did the math, and as it currently stands if you complete EVERY RIft quest but do not complete EVERY daily, you will not get enough Rift fragments to complete the Rift. Meaning, if you missed a day of playing since this Rift started? You're already not going to be able to complete the RIft.
Sure, BHVR is aware of this and is looking to tweak the numbers, but we don't know when or how they will, so until we do, the math stands. -

That’s where the Go Next Prevention will fix that or at least help it. Although I rarely if ever encounter what you had mentioned but needless to say, I totally get it.
Yea, if it works right and doesn't incorrectly flag someone as trying to go next because they are not playing in the exact way the "go next prevention" is programmed to expect.

Well, I also had a related issue with one of the quests did not get unpinned (and I couldn't unpin it myself) until I completed it as both survivor and killer, and it was only then that I got the proper quest completion credit for it in the numbers.

Yea, so seems that's the bug. I just completed it killer side also, and got credit finally.

Ah yea i just reported this myself, I looked and didn't find your thread. I am stuck at 3.

At the very least tell us why they did this. Like, if they have a legitimate reason why it was done, okay sure. I can accept it. But without that reason, it just makes no sense why it needed to be done.

You can @ me gang don't worry. I'm disappointed but not surprised.
I was mostly joking anyway, I don't wholly despise my collection of utter financial waste.Oh no, I totally understand the "sunk cost fallacy" myself. I have lingering thoughts about another game that recently released a 2nd game and none of the thousand or so I've spend on that game carries over to the new version. So while I did quit the game, I am kind of… well, sunk cost fallacy about it, especially since I finally got the $100 skin (yes, $100 because it was the final skin in their season pass which made it $100 when you bought it after the pass was over) that I have desperately wanted since it came out.

The game will be fine. They'll have to make some UI changes, but they'll still make bank from whales, especially here in the US where consumer protections aren't exactly a thing.

A lot gets made out of this when its really nothing. BHVR is an international corporation and almost certainly has a legal department. Someone made a claim that they had a legal right to see their MMR and encouraged others to do so. Consulting their legal department is the most obvious thing to do in that circumstance.
Right, but still they don't want MMR to be released, they aren't going to and so when someone makes such a claim, they can either say "fine we'll tell you" or call lawyers to say no.

No, it's a mixed challenge where you have to get either 1 Iridescent LIghtbringer emblem or 1 Iridescent Gatekeeper emblem.
I did the Lightbringer one. It's not that difficult to do in the regular mode: gens & totems are all you need, and you can get some extra if you take chase while gens are being repaired or when opening an exit gate.
Okay, right. That's what I thought. That you'd have to do both would be… just weird and not something they'd likely ever do. They even have it set up so you can complete the entire event now only doing one side (didn't used to be that way, the Xmas event with Jeff's outfit was the last you had to play both sides to get enough event points.)

@Malkhrim said:
"Surrender" is not a win for the killer, and doing all gens takes way less than the 10-minutes needed for a surrender, so I really don't think the surrender mechanic makes any difference in this scenario.
Well, its not called Surrdender, it's called abandon, and from what I understand, it does count as a win for the killer.
-
Wait you have to get one in both modes? Not just 1 in either?

They have gone out of their way to keep it secret, even bringing in lawyers allegedly. So… no.

I own every Legion cosmetic except for the comic book charms, Hunk, and the Slipknot one. When I used to be a Legion main, I played mostly Susie. As for the Lost Mascot skins, Joey is green, Julie is blue, Susie is yellow, and Frank is pink. As far as in-game play goes, Frank and Joey are exactly the same character and Julie and Susie are exactly the same character. So that means that especially for the Lost Mascot outfits (which are very rare already) it really boils down to which color do you prefer, Pink or Green?

Now a days servers time out at an hour. Under modern times for a recorded match it would probably be the infamous Skull Merchant game that ended relatively close to that hour mark.
Back in the old days when the servers went longer and there were hatch stand offs games could go much longer.
Actually streamer JG Dahrk regularly does "Myers locker standoff" matches that time out the server. They are legal (despite tweets at him they are going to get him banned, Mandy herself has replied to people multiple times defending him) because either JG or the survivor can choose to end the match at any time. Either JG pulls them out of the locker, or they come out and let him have the Tombstone.

If I have 50% bonus by just playing survivor, why would I stack it with cakes? I already have to spend bloodpoints between every game to not be capped all the time. Also can't use the event offering after the event.

people were complaining about the shared offerings, i dont get why. But my guess is that this is why they are no longer shared. As for the event boosters, i will use them for the full event, as they only work in the event. The cakes work outside the event.
Who was complaining about them being shared? I would need to see these complaints, as why do they not have the same complaint about anniversary offerings?

Hmm, not sure on the personal BP one (at least once we get to the next tier). 350% vs 250% total, vs 250% and one score is doubled so event BP counts for 500%?
Not certain on how the maths works, but I think that's right.
Escape Cake/Survivor pudding affects ALL BP gains. Bloodshot Eye only counts for Blood Moon Scoring Events (which are piddly AF this event.)
Also the way it works is each offering increases that by +100% (or whatever) so like 5 Bloody Party STreamers would give you 600% of normal BP, as opposed to 100% which would be normal. It increases you final match score by whatever percent., double, triple, quadruple, so on. So, that's why I said even a +25% to EVERYTHING is better than +100% to just the Blood Moon Scoring stuff. -

Ive been playing a couple of events and i dont know what is going on really. Barely any interactions with survivors at all. feels like i am running with 0 perks and that gens are done quicker. Can someone explain to me what this is ?
Because the blood generators are WAY easier and quicker to get finished and 4 out of the 7 generators are Blood Generators, so the survivors only have to do a single normal one.

Yes, please revert this, or at the very least tell us the lame excuse why it has to be this way going forward.

@F1Billy said:
I would bring them, but I only ever get like 2 every 5 prestige's, and now with the event offering I have an even less chance to get BPS. They definitely need to buff how often it appears or get rid of the other blood point offerings and make BPS the only BP offering.
Then bring Escape Cake/Survivor Pudding. It's STILL better than the Bloodshot Eye. Hell, a Green Envelope is better than the Bloodshot Eye.

I'm so sick of survivor perks getting nerfed because killers refuse to learn the game. It's not hard at all to avoid bangs or flashlights. I have 3,000 hours in this game and I can count on one hand how many times survivors have saved against me. Why are flashbangs being nerfed because of a learning issue??
Because enough players complain, things get changed. Cause apparently learning is hard.

@SkeletalElite said:
When you surrender the match ends right away. Any remaining survivors matches are considered nullified, same as a hatch escape. So its as if your match with that survivor didn't happen and your MMR is neither increased nor decreased. If you killed 2 other survivors though those survivors are 2 won matches that increase your MMR.
Ah, if it registers as a hatch escape, that's fine. I mean those content creators on a kill streak might not agree, but well I don't care about such things.

@Mandy said:
Flashbangs now work as they were always intended to work, it was never intended that the survivor model could clip into a killers model so that they could get a blind which a killer couldn't avoid - even when facing a wall. Same as the audio and blind radius - you should not be blinded when looking up (which was happening) and you should not be blinded if the flashbang is not within your range of vision, hence we adjusted the angles. There has to be a way for the killer to avoid the flashbang, before it was incredibly easy to just drop the bang and the killer would be blinded with no way to avoid it, that's definitely not something that was ever intended to happen.
Whilst I appreciate that those who enjoy using flashbangs, have to now learn the new radius etc, the previous version was bugged.
Well, thank you for that. That just tells me how AWESOME I AM as a killer main, because I apparently have been doing the impossible.
I'm with the survivors here. -

Unfortunately this is true. They all just give them to their friends.
I don't think the Fog Whisperers have any codes left, and while I am sure some of the Fog Whisperers did that when they had codes, I know for a fact that two of my favorite streamers didn't get codes from "friends.' In fact, one was very sus when she got DMed her codes by Scorpionz, and she had no idea who he even was.

I never said knock out should have remained the way it was.
What I am saying is that if slugging is a problem that needs to be fixed, it should be fixed on BOTH SIDES of the game. But when BHVR nerfs Knock Out, and allows survivors to surrender early when everyone is slugged, it's basically only fixing the problems that negatively affect survivors.
BHVR could have easily made or announced anti-slugging things that would benefit killers, that would help reduce the frustration that happens when killers are repeatedly forced to slug. But none of that happened. Badham + basement in shack, is still a super grief that survivors can do. Any all the other ways that killers can be forced to slug is still fully intact in the game.
Yes, address the REASONS killers slug (there will always be those that do it just to grief. Yes, it sucks but you can't balance a game around griefers) instead of what they are doing. Just like in medicine, you need to figure out and address the cause, not only the symptoms.

If you are a survivor main, then Kneenz is really great. However, Killer Mains beware. She does flash bangs saves from lockers and goes out of her way to make them happen multiple times in a match. She will traumatize you. Hehehe. Kidding, I am a killer main and I love watching her, as I respect a good play even though it frustrates me during the match itself.
