My vote is pig or shape. They're both really fun. Pig might have the edge on perks, as Surveillance is awesome.
-
They are correct, it's not bannable.
-
Thanks, it's true that it feels amazing how far we've come since the release in 2016!
-
I won't fight about this; you have the reasoning we used. Seeing how it's working in practice now and checking some data, we're happy with the outcome.
-
As explained in the dev stream (I know not everyone watches those things, and that's ok), it was not intended that players (both K and S) would have access to the best items and addons every match (or even as many matches as they do).
When I proposed that we allow empty items to stay, the economic designer recommended we normalize addons to disappear after the match even if you survive. This was discussed at length among the design team members, and we decided that we liked it.
-
I just played a game to check, White Ward is working as intended. I had an item with addons, played White Ward, escaped, and I kept the item and its addons. There was a fix to it in the last release.
Is there something else going wrong with it?
-
I don't think there's one "best" content creator. It depends on what you're looking for.

Ghost Face and Trapper. I'm afraid to run anywhere with Trapper around, and I always think GF is just around every corner if I can't hear the TR.
-
I have access to data you don't, so you're unfortunately in the dark about which addons are weak and which are strong. I can't go into details, but if there's anything here I can use, I will keep it in mind.

The stream is going to reveal the next chapter, so the PTB is for sure going to be sometime after the stream, otherwise it would spoil the reveal.
We're all looking forward to this!

Nintendo is not telling us how to design the game. :)
-
Please post your results here when you have them. Please ping me as well, I really don't want to miss this.

Speaking as a player and not as a developer, yes, I still enjoy Killer. I prefer it to playing Survivor by quite a bit.
-
I say nothing in those cases. I assume the Survivors are not in a good mood, and "gg" might be seen as condescending. If one of them says "gg" first, I'll respond in kind.

I'm boring, I like the default lobby music. :)

Anything worth less than 30k. :)
-
If there were a guaranteed 4k, we wouldn't have a game. :)
-
One small thing I'd like people not to do is wait to exit the match after there's nothing left to do. Hatch is open, they're on it, and they just wait for me to come by to jump in. Like somehow it's important for me to see them jump in. I'm just thinking, "Nice job, you got the hatch! Now let's move to the next match as soon as possible." :)

Both are really fun in my opinion. Do you want moment-to-moment action (Legion) or long-term planning (Trapper)?

Oh please. It's because they are playing with a Streamer they enjoy, not to mention a Dev. So, it's offering an enjoyment reward right there.
I'm not advocating bloodpoints in KYF, mind you, as I don't care one way or another about it, but you're making a poor comparison there. Either that, or you don't understand what people enjoy about playing with a Streamer and/or Dev.
Good point, but I've played KYF with my friends offline as well, and we have fun. I just don't buy the line of logic that it's "a complete waste of time" to play unless you're unlocking things. :)

Actually, something and nothing is a HUGE difference. If you do the math, 1 is an infinite times bigger than 0.
There is pretty much only one reason people don't play KYF: it's a complete waste of time when you need bloodpoints so badly when you don't have a group to play with. Having reduced bloodpoint gains would change that completely and make the mode significantly more popular. A lot of people including myself would much prefer to play with 5 people for a friendly game rather than having to risk deal with the stress of a chance at ebony moris or 4 man flashlight squads. However, you're not always going to be able to do that and if spending any time doing so completely holds you back when you're not doing so, you're less driven to play KYF.
"A complete waste of time". So... playing DbD isn't fun and you just want bloodpoints to unlock more stuff to play a game that's a waste of time unless you're unlocking things? I don't quite follow this line of reasoning. :)
On my stream we do "play with the viewers" nights, and we play KYF, and nobody complains about it being "a complete waste of time". We have fun! Except maybe when that Legion master shows up and kicks our asses. ;)

Doesn’t huntress laugh towards the end of her humming “track”?
I don't know if it's near the end, but it is very far from the beginning. She does laugh. :)
-
It was 30-35 minutes. The last two Survivors were immensely sneaky. The only reason I was able to hang on at the end was because I had Surveillance. Every time one of them touched this one gen we were battling over, by the time I got there they had vanished. Every time, over and over.
In the end, I think I got one and the other... I can't remember. Might have gotten the last one, or they might have gotten the hatch. Anyway, it was a really fun match. Cutting those off is one reason I (personally, not speaking for the whole Design team) do not want to put a hard time limit on Trials.
Also if I recall, I got a ton of some of the most hideous verbal abuse I've ever gotten in this game for not giving up. :D

@SpiritLover1133 said:
Question to DbD community.
As a killer, would you rather play against survivors who hide and difficult to find or survivors who are good at looping?
Note: you cannot be good at hiding and looping at the same time. Looping takes time to learn and while hiding you aren't progressing towards it.
Learn one, then learn the other! :D

Okay I reread the post from here https://forum.deadbydaylight.com/en/discussion/comment/1205314#Comment_1205314 and you're right you don't run Spine Chill. I don't know why I misremembered that, sorry for the wrong tag haha. But hey you should give it a try anyways, it's a pretty cool perk.
Yup, I should try it more!

@PrinceAshitaka said:
Curious to what @Peanits thinks, since I caught him running the vault speed build on stream. Same with @Almo who I see runs spine chill. :D
When did I run Spine Chill? I almost never use it. :)

Any idea when it'll be ready Almo? Or is it a soonTM? :p
Unfortunately I can't comment on how long beyond saying that it is in active development. It's not on a back burner somewhere! :)
-
Yes, we are working on it! :)

Idea: Add a downscaling/supersampling option. Much better than AA. :D
That would be up to the graphics team; I'm not involved in those decisions. :)

Antialiasing does this.

So I did. My bad. Two of my least favorite killers to face. I must have pushed them from my mind.
Totally understandable. :)

@Peanits said:
Not necessarily a full build, but I would strongly recommend Monitor & Abuse with Whispers. Whispers tells you when someone is within 32m, M&A knocks your terror radius down to 24m outside of a chase. That way you'll always know when to crouch before someone hears your terror radius, but you won't have to slowly crouch around the whole map.
Last two perks can be whatever you want.
I approve of this message. :)

@Peanits said:
Yes. You progress through the Rift at the same rate whether or not you bought the premium pass. You can decide to buy the premium pass at any point and you'll still get the premium rewards you would have earned.
What's more, we haven't built progression bonuses into the paid side as some other battle passes do. When they do that, you will progress faster if you buy early. Ours really lets you buy later without penalty. :)
-
DbD is a punishing game; nearly every meaningful event in the game is driven by players, and that means there's no quick onboarding process that takes you by the hand. But that is what makes it so rewarding over time. As you learn and get better at the game, it gets to be more fun because you know you've earned every bit of it.
Having said that, we also try to make design decisions that facilitate learning wherever we can. For example, the Status Effect notifications help new players understand when there something is affecting their play.
As you can see from other responses in this thread, there are a lot of players who are happy to help with hints and tips. :)
-
When I stream, it occurs to me that I may be sniped. But I just consider that a hazard of streaming. Our official position on it not being bannable is also in part because as Peanits says, it's impossible to enforce.
-
Surveillance. It's a huge help.
-
As stated in the live stream today, we are actively working on MM. It's a priority, but it's a surprising amount of work to get this sort of thing working properly.

I use a ps4. oof.
Ok! Then there's some extra Huntress difficulty there, but it's still doable. Nurse will also be more of a challenge with a controller.

Could you explain what you mean with "success"?
For the purpose of this particular bit of data, a "success" is killing 3 or more Survivors. As you know "success" is defined in different ways for different players depending on what their goals are.

Thank you, I also heard huntress was good? Is it true?
Huntress is a lot of fun. But it takes some practice to learn how to throw the hatchets. It's worth the effort though! :) Note: it's harder to do this well if playing with a controller.
-
When players have Tombstone Piece equipped, their success rate is lower than with any other addon. This comes straight from the statistics. Vanity Mirror is close, but it's not the lowest.
