Though i haven't played in years because i don't like what they did, and i don't PLAN to play again, i am still going to watch.
Played for years after all, and i did enjoy playing.
So the hope is simply that it'll be something that draws me back in.
What i THINK it would be i couldn't tell you, been out of the loop for too long to say for sure.

Ohey, i saw that too just now

Since they're completely messing around with his Perks, i don't see why they couldn't do it with his cosmetics.
When i saw the news, i immediately thought he could have this...

Well, I haven't been banned yet so I can't be doing too badly
The whole thing also doesn't feel very holiday spirit-y.

I like how the only time I ever see the trusted tag around anymore it's when you've returned because of yet another cataclysmic decision.
From what i remember, you were a true highlight of these forums and hope you still are.
As for me showing up whenever BHVR does a thing...Well that's not true, i check here randomly from time to time.
What IS true is that so far my hopes of having a joyous return to the game have not raised at all.
Especially now that Boons are more and more a thing and Devour Hope won't keep up.
-
This BHVR feels like a completely different one compared to the one 6+ years ago...
Or at least the decision makers feel like that.

I'm assuming so. I play on PS5 and it still had to connect online. Could be wrong though.
Aight, thanks.

Quick question: Does the inclusion of bots still require you to launch the game in online mode on Steam?
-
As Survivor: Generators. I actually never disliked being a Gen jockey myself, but the fact that it's been the only MAIN way forward (so not counting Hatch) for 6+ years now is mundane asf.
As Killer: Looping, especially ones with low walls. I don't care how balanced they could make it: Nothing takes away the feeling of being a supernatural and/or powerful Killer more for me than being unable to just kick some of those barrels and trash aside to nullify the loop, or be unable to just hop over a Haddonfield fence.

Have been hit hopping a window on a questionable hit, stood still to fake like I was going AFK and just done with the match, killer didn't even bother downing me as I made sure to not move ANYTHING and I got right on the gen nearby the second they started chasing my friend. If it looks stupid but works, it isn't stupid.
Yup, love the risky and unusual plays~

you can't be reported for killer for being afk - unless you are autp swinging afk botting.
Unless the rules changed in the last year: You most certainly can.
Mods said it's because you're not providing the other side with any kind of regular Killer interaction.
If you're gonna be AFK in a corner as Killer, you're gonna get legit reports.
-
Which changes exactly?
-
I don't really wanna get into the first one, but i specifically remember a mod on here saying that pretending you're AFK or a bot and then taking advantage of the situation is not bannable.
They said they view it as trickery, and it can be completely avoided by just repairing and getting out.
It's not fool-proof though: If you pretend to be AFK and no one comes for you, then you were pretty much AFK and if they report you it could be considered legit.
-
Guess i'll also try to help this discussion be about something else than Trickster.
Hag has a pretty joke-y power.
"BLAAAAGH!.....I'm not teleporting thou- YES I AM!"
Oh you didn't mean that when you said Joke Power? Well TOO BAD! 😈

It's got a new Wraith outfit, so it's gotta be in the top somewhere.
Funny enough it looks similar to one of my old ideas, he even has a shrapnel weapon that i also thought of.

@Mister_xD said:
First of all: Welcome back! Haven't seen you in a while and I'm glad to do so again ^^
As for the topic at hand:
A lot has changed in the game recently. The 6.1.0 patch in particular came with an immense meta shakeup for both sides and overall was a very good patch IMO, giving Killers some much needed basekit buffs.
Another thing is SBMM with its MMR system - this too has been undergoing significant changes throughout its existance. We're at the point right now where it is basically just the same as the rank based matchmaking for high MMR players, whereas lower level players get some more accurate matches. Also a positive change IMO, as "competetive DbD" is just a terrible experience all around. Oh and MMR decay isn't a thing so you're gonna be matched on the same level you were on when you quit.
Of course we also had our fair share of Killer additions and updates, so to break the most important ones down:
- The Mastermind is widely considered the most fun Killer in the game right now.
- The Dredge is an extremely unique Killer both design and gameplay wise, I find it to be very fun.
- The Deathslinger is basically dead, they removed his ability to quickscope and increased his TR to 32m - terrible changes IMO, but it's BHVR's game and if they wanna ruin a character then go for it I guess.
- Spirit received major changes to give her more counterplay - it's pretty hit or miss whether you like it or not, I find her more boring nowadays but I've seen a lot liking the changes.
- A Twins rework has been announced.
Outside of that the basic gameplay loop is the same as it has always been, some additions have been made here or there (Scourge Hooks for Killers that reward focussing specific hooks over others and Boon Totems for Survivors that reward them for wasting some time setting them up and can be snuffed out by Killers), but overall the core game hasn't changed much.
Killer is probaply in the best state it has ever been in, whereas solo Survivor is still just painful. The recent Killer buffs have not helped that fact, sadly (but they were needed nontheless). SWF hasn't changed a whole lot, it's still by far the best way to enjoy Survivor gameplay.
And I think that's all - might have missed some things here or there, but I'm sure you'll hear them from others nontheless.
EDIT: yup, I completely forgot to mention the whole progression changes... well in short Bloodwebs are a lot better now and prestige got completely reworked. It's much easier to level up your characters now, which is great!
Have a good time in the fog ^^
Hi! 🤗
Just so you know i never fully left the forums, but yeah i might as well have in comparison to how active i was before.
-
My collector brain is also not liking the fact that there's 213 Perks now.
I think i'll stay out of this game for a while longer, thanks for the replies!

Hey, Boss. What do you think about "near" mean 0.5 - 1 meter distant from the hook?
I think that that's pretty damn nearby.

Nothing is going to change, even more knowing that you are coming back to the same, chill vibes will be pushed to extreme the moment you play the game. Unless you have the experience to handle.
This will logically happen
If one does get those "chill vibes" then it's time to think if you actually still want to play the game at all.
Another reason why breaks and variety are a good thing.
-
@[Deleted User] said:
https://forum.deadbydaylight.com/en/discussion/comment/3222460#Comment_3222460
The issue is, MMR is not decaying yet. Be it a break now or later, you will end up in the same skill level game, that knowing you are going to lose dexterity from not playing awhile will be pushed right next to a strong team destroying you in seconds. A break will not change anything unless they add MMR decay for not playing a long time.
He is speaking about hard games, meta games.
Well i'm not talking about a break until the game changes, just talking about keeping yourself from going insane.
-
Not even really because of DbD, it's just good to have variety in gaming.
Go play something else you like for a while, a break from DbD did me wonders back in 2017.

Crushed from my loss of bbq BP rewards as a form of in-game goal, left the game last December, just lurking around on the forums for entertainment and still spreading the glory of our lord and saviour Lightborn 😎
Oh i heard Flashlights can no longer go clickety-clickety
-
Everyone and their mother loves finding things out so i'll probably be the only one thinking this, but i loved WAY back in the beginning of DbD when the Killer stories were very short, just a paragraph or 3.
They felt like old folklores, a scary story you'd overhear from crazy-looking people in a pub.
"Man i swear it! I walked by that ol' cornfield where that family disappeared and the animals died and right as i passed it i heard a chainsaw and the corn rustlin'."

Damn, i haven seen you and your trusted status in quite a while.
And no wonder judging from your last 10+ comment history being spread across the whole last year since you were more active.
Yeah i just hop in once in a while.
Hard to be here consistently when stuff gets added and changed and everyone talks about it but you're out of the loop by choice.
Anyway this time i'm just gonna stick around for as long as my discussion gets attention.
Also how ya' doin'?! 🤩

Ehh, Wraith doesn't seem to have gained any new cosmetics either.

But what is "near"?

@Uistreel said:
Progression is much, much better and there's been a slight change to the meta in terms of perks, but generally the game plays the same as it did a year ago besides the fact that slugging and tunneling are both realistically far less desirable methods of pressure building (despite this, both of these seem to be more prevalent than before). It's not in some brand new state never heard of before; you'll play for a few hours, learn the new content and basic gamplay mechanics, then continue playing like you always did once you know how they work.
It's in a better state than it was before balance wise, not playerbase wise. Except devour hope doesn't allow you to mori anyone anymore. That sucks.
Oh right, i DID read up on Devour Hope.
Big yikes, the fun for me was getting to kill, not to get the Entity to kill.

No thank you.

That second image gives me old movie vibes, love it.

Wait, Boss, is that you? I haven't seen you in forever! Good to have you back!
Yeah, i hop by every now and then when it feels appropriate.
And MS fundamentally changing feels appropriate.

Getting a legit single-player mode of some kind might seriously make me consider coming back.

I'm not thinking about it so far, but every now and then i just remember this forum and hop on by.

Pretty good. This would be the part where i say cool stuff that happened in my life lately but there's been none of that. Still, i consider my regular life to be, as stated before, pretty good.
You?

Oh ######### boss slipped my mind but I think think that's because I haven't seen them on the forums for a while now
That's cause i only hop by when i feel like it now, and so far that only seems to happen once every few months.

@GeneralV said:
It still is @TheGannMan, as his ban is temporary.
And, even if it wasn't, no one will ever take that throne away from him.
Same goes for @Boss and Devour Hope, @TheDarkTyrant and Nemesis, and me and Freddy / Old DBD.
Such levels of dedication and love are not easily reached.
Even though i'm not playing anymore, still one of the best aspects of the game for me.
ULTIMATE POWER AT ULTIMATE RISK!

What's your new main game?
Deep Rock Galactic.
You're a dwarf that mines minerals, shoots bugs and drinks beer.
Besides loving the basic gameplay, there's a lot of content locked behind "play the game lots", so it keeps me motivated as well.

-
Well i guess this is the straw that broke my back
I wonder if you have an idea of how hard it is for me to write this, and moreso for me to do this.
First, i'll write some of my problems with this game...
- 5th Anniversary was quite the disappointment to me, which i REALLY needed to not be.
- Hackers are going loose right now and they're showing very little care about it too. (Devs, if you read this: SHOW! SHOW that you care.)
- And now this whole ordeal with the Hellraiser chapter.
- Some patches & statements REALLY made me question if they know what they're actually doing, with 2 prime examples being Mcote saying: "Infinites take skill." & the patch which made Survivors able to Pallet-stun or blind the Killer at any time during the pick-up animation and it would trigger the rescue, removing any timing needed besides having to be there during the animation.
- Survivor gameplay is VERY much the same since launch, so i got bored with that after a while, and thus i wasn't playing half of the game anyway.
- Don't like Battle Passes, and while i didn't enjoy the Rift either, i tolerate it.
- Linked outfits are quite terrible to me but i just didn't think about them.
- QA more often than i'd like feels non-existant after patch releases.
- With the current Boon Perks and more surely coming up, using Hex: Devour Hope on its own is no longer a viable option for me to generate my kind of fun, and this reason alone would surely eventually kill my desire to play DbD.
- Crashes/freezes. No other game of mine has crashed or frozen as many times as DbD has, and crashes/freezes are a HUGE demotivator for me to play, i'm usually done playing a game for the day if it crashes or freezes.
- Optimization for consoles is absolutely astonishing and i don't mean the good astonishing.
But guess what?
I don't regret a single thing, because i enjoyed all of MY decisions in the game...
- I don't regret getting all Perks on one character, as they helped keep the game fresh for me, good or bad.
- I don't regret getting all those cosmetics, as i enjoyed making my own personal outfits and show them off.
- I don't regret sinking so much time into this game, as it's the same as any other hobby: You sink time into it cause you enjoy it, and enjoying DbD i sure did. (Half of it, but that half was pretty damn good.)
And i am very confident i won't regret this decision either: ######### this, it's time to quit!
It's been a good run DbD, but it's time to put you to bed.
I feel no more joy starting it up and enjoyment is all i play games for.
The ONLY reason i'm not permanently deleting DbD isn't because i don't want to remove my playtime.
I've deleted many save files in multiple Dark Souls games before, all of which contained AT LEAST dozens of hours per save file.
No, the ONLY reason why i'm not doing that is cause, despite all this, it hasn't changed me: I'm still a hopeful man.
Call it blind faith, but perhaps there's a future out there where a different company buys DbD and simply does way better.
Heck, i might get into a different asymmetrical game. (Don't count on it.)
I could probably write lots more, but i don't think it's worth it, plus it's late as i write this.
Took me like 2 days to make this decision too and whenever i had free time, this decision was all i was thinking about.
Some of you will think i took way too long, some of you will think i'm overreacting and will come back soon.
Both of you could be right, both of you could be wrong, i really don't care cause this is my experience.
I'm just really ready to be done with this game now.
See y'all in other games perhaps IDK i'm not much of a multiplayer-only guy besides DbD of course.
I'll probably check on this comment again tomorrow, but i suspect i'll be done with the forums as well after that.

Most seem to be mad because BHVR is "working with pleasure" with people that do NFTs.
