Lethal Presuer.

The Weekly Gift 🎁 for this week, August 13, is 400,000 Bloodpoints.

So, I purchased a cosmetic for The Pig. I bought the one that scares me the most.
I decided to play a real game as her with the intention of winning for the first time ever.
I uploaded the video and wanted to share it. The match is almost 20 minutes and is not edited in any way.
This is me, as The Pig - Raw and Uncensored.
What have I become?

howdy. ive been playing dbd since about 2020. i had an account with a ton of stuff on it, and all the dlc except the d&d and lara croft one, and i synced my xbox and ps4 accounts, as my xbox is currently broken and i will be unable to afford one for the foreseeable future. absolutely none of my progress synced despite getting the all clear from the website. am i doing something wrong? im really frustrated.
Yeah, you need to be able to log in on both devices to synchronize. You need both versions up to date and you will have to log in to both.

lately, the absolute worst games of dbd have been games that end up in a 2v1 situation.
after two survivors are dead, and you have two survivors alive with a killer. all three people in this situation want to win, so what is the best option for each?
for the survivors, it's to wait for your teammate to die. for the killer, it's to keep patrolling the generators to make sure they don't get done.
the objective of the survivor team has changed, and now the killer has no information and almost no relevance to the actual game at hand any more. the killer has nothing to do and no information to act upon unless they either have a perk to help them or one of the survivors gives up.
and then, when one of the survivors actually is downed… well, if you kill that survivor, the hatch will spawn and the last one might get out. so for as long as there is one survivor on the floor, the remaining survivor and the killer are playing the same game: hide and seek. except there's someone on the floor, having been taken hostage.
a lot of developer time was spent dealing with things like camping and tunnelling. but when will the developers start considering the problem of the 2v1 situation? when the priorities of the survivors shift, and the game becomes extremely boring?
what would you do to address this, if you were a developer?
i think i would make it so that, in the 2v1 situation, the survivors start to build up idle crows any time they aren't on a generator, and putting one of the survivors into the dying state immediately triggers the mori animation on that survivor.
i would then adjust all achievements and archives that require 4 kills to only require 3 kills.
no more hide and seek, please. no more slugging for the 4k, please. i want to play the video game and i cannot stand it when i am taken hostage by survivors that don't want to show themselves, or by killers that don't want to give up their 4k.
I think Killer Instinct should activate in intermittent intervals, decreasing as time goes on.
For example, three minutes after the second Survivor dies, Killer Instinct activates. Then two minutes later it activates again and so on....

So when I get in a Survivor 2v8 lobby on PS5, the little globe icon appears next to a few players indicating they are on another platform
In the end screen, it says we are all on Playstation and the globes are gone.

As far as I know every addon stacks normally? Maybe he meant it's not worth stacking it and you should use two different ones instead?
You can send the clip and maybe I'll know what he meant then xD
Here he is saying Freddy's don't stack.

MMR has not changed, however queue times have slowly improved, meaning that matchmaking doesn't get widened so much so you're being matched with players more within the same MMR bracket.
Your MMR doesn't get affected by 2v8 so when you return to the main game, it won't have adjusted in anyway.
And as an fyi, kill rates are pretty balanced in 2v8 right now. (there's also not a survivor shortage)
I am having a blast in Survivor 2v8 today. I would say I'm escaping half the time. I bought a new Dwight cosmetic and I'm playing match after match.
If the team is going to lose, I make my goal to practice looping and waiting to drop pallets.
I'm getting really good at doing a 360 so the killer misses their swings on me 🤭

How does a killer stop another from caging?
Sable went down in a corner in that little garden or whatever this place in the picture is behind crotus penn and fell head forward towards Huntress. (photo for reference only, this is just where it happened)
The Huntress just spammed m1 at me and shook her head no over and over.
I couldn't make Huntress move and because there's no collision between the killers, Sable was safe under her as I couldn't get close enough for the cage prompt to pop up.
The only reason I was able to knock Sable down was because she accidentally stepped in one of my bear traps 🐻

Today was hilarious 😂
I absolutely loathe trolls but I decided to just use 2v8 as a bloodpoint farming event and I have fun no matter what.
I had a Lara run into the Killer Shack where I was working on a generator. She joined me and consecutively missed every single skill check until the killer came.
I had a Meg instantly spam herself in and out of a locker at the start of a match where 3 of us were working on a gen.
I had a Kate get mad at me for rescuing 2 teammates just before she could. She decided to follow me around, slam a pallet wherever I was working on a generator and spam vault it.
These all just happened in the last two hours.
It's not even bothering me anymore and sometimes I just start laughing.
I bought this Dwight skin and have been wearing it all day. Silly outfit for Silly games 🤪

How is no one talking about this?
It's a massive buff that makes the stealth part of the game even less viable for survivors.
New tile designs plus this? You just supposed to rush gens then?
All scrach marks needed were color blind filters.
Will be meta like stretch rez was for survivor.
No, it isn't. Not unless you're using the Lightweight perk. Playing Killer is so frustrating because they have been fading for a while now and seemed to be getting much worse.
I played two custom matches against the bots this morning and I would lose them in chase constantly.
It's not a buff. This is long overdue and a bug fix as far as I'm concerned.
Edit: Sorry I didn't see the video you posted lol 😆
The scratch marks are not consistent now and I'm happy it is being addressed.

Hmmm? Muffled? That's odd...
What kind of headset do you have? You should be able to plug any standard 3.5mm jack headset into the controller and get full audio for PS5. If it's muffled, the standard check I'd make is ensure you've pushed the jack all the way in.
Or is your headset USB? USB headsets I'd imagine would need to support PS5 with an appropriate adapter, but if the headset lists that it supports PS5 it should be fine.
There is the official Sony headset, but although they don't expressly say it (marketing 😏), any standard headset should work as normal with full features. (Though, to be fair, Sony's Pulse headset is very good).
The PS5 does have customisable profiles for 3D audio though that modify the sound output to account for the size of your head, ear shape, bones in your face etc to make aound more immersive. This feature is new, so maybe you've just got a configuration that is bad for you?
Try alterimg/setting that.
I have this exact one. It works amazing on both Nintendo Switch and PS4. It is absolutely garbage on PS5. I had to make a custom audio setting.

I’ve heard that too but mine have all been fine. Ironically it’s usually my Nintendo consoles that get stick drift. My Wii U gamepad got stick drift when I was playing Breath of the Wild. A local repair shop agreed to repair it as an exception.
My factory release L Joy Con stick also finally gave out like 8 months ago.
Some of my PS4 controllers got stick drift (but only after playing Power Wash Simulator) I suspect that partial stick pushes can cause accelerated damage to the way the stick works.
Regardless, it can happen. I love buying controllers so its not an issue for me. I own like 4 PS5 controllers because I love the new colors they release.
I’m not 100% sure but I think all modern joysticks use a metal rod and graphene to determine where in space the stick is pushing? It’s so outdated. Companies need to increase production and make it so that they turn the sticks from graphene and metal rod (which the graphene always wears away eventually) to grid and laser. It will increase upfront controller costs but will save money over time since a laser and grid should eliminate stick drift.
Edit: It’s also the main reason I’m not buying a Playstation Portal, because I’m not going to risk the whole thing not working because the cheap sticks are the first thing to break.

It does, so does the Xbox.
The technology is exactly the same as PS4/XBone... neither company updated it sadly 😒
To avoid it I would suggest getting into the habit of -
- Wash your hands with soap before you play.
- Buy some alcoholic wipes and wipe down the controller and around the sticks after each session.
(To be honest, this is also a good set of habits to get into for maintenance of a PC mouse as well... the crap that gets in between your buttons on a mouse... 💀).
If you do get stick drift, it's not too hard to disassemble and clean the contacts, though in my experience it's better to just replace the petentiometer completely, you can buy a pack of 8 PS5/Xbox joysticks with 2 potentiometers each for like £7.
This video explains it:

Yesterday or today it had a total crash. A survivor was glitched floating above and underground. To the point both killers stopped and just watched. Then it crashed.
As for server issues, can't connect etc. I don't think its the ps5. It's more on BHVR side
I can't speak for ps4. I've been on ps5 for 2 years now
What do y'all do for audio? The game sounds so muffled with both my headsets.
Also, did you set the game to Performance Mode or Resolution Mode?

i’ve only played survivor but i’ve had so many troll teammates too :( it seems like in 1/3rd of my games im getting at least one teammate that trolls and tries to get everyone killed (ie dropping every pallet upon spawning in and repeatedly fast vaulting near teammates). i haven’t really had any problems with killers; it’s just bad teammates driving me away from the game mode.
Yup, I played several matches in the early hours of this morning. 2 out of every 3 had a troll survivor doing that. It's insane.

1 v 4 Killer is how I did it. To be safe when you do it be sure you have no challenges selected for Survivor. Just do this as a Killer in a 1 v 4. I did it as Freddy.

I'm on ps4, played all weekend with no issues. After yesterday's patch I've had the game crash where I get the Playstation message asking if I want to send a report and I've been disconnected from a match thanks to dedicated server issue. Both times it was towards end of the match in 2v8, only myself and 1 or 2 others.
I don't care that there's a DC penalty for my own internet issues because I can call my internet provider and get the issue fixed but there shouldn't be one when the issue is on BHVRs side with the dedicated servers, I have 0 control over that. Just make it so if this error message pops up the game knows to not give a penalty.

Correct.
My last purchased DLC from the eshop was Dungeons & Dragons which I had to repurchase on PS.
But with Lara Croft, I bought her with AC in the DBD in-game store on Switch and she transferred perfectly!
I also bought her Autumn cosmetic this morning on Switch and I'm wearing it on PS4 now.
Thanks so much 🤗

@Coordi said:
Thanks for asking this question! If you purchase the Rift on one platform, you should be able to claim the rewards (including Auric Cells from the Rift) on another. Only DLCs and the cells themselves do not cross over. I hope this answers your question!
Oh thank you @Jocelynbee 😊
Since I have an odd amount of AC on Switch and zero on PS, I plan to use DbD Switch exclusively for shopping with AC.
In other words, I plan to make my future AC purchases on Switch so that there is a single AC balance and then use the characters and cosmetics that I purchase on my Switch on my PS5.
So, for the rift, I will refrain from buying the rift pass until I've reached level 85 of the Rift. I will then log in to my Switch, buy the rift which will pay for itself and keep my AC all together.
Does this make sense?
Thank you sincerely 🙏 for your time.

I'm hoping 🙏 that this stops when I set up the PS5. I wonder if the new mode and the free weekend are crashing the servers? My friend is still on Nintendo Switch and he hasn't had any problems at all which I was surprised by as I thought the PS4 would be much more stable.

Today on ps4 it's just constantly crashing, saying Dedicated Server Not Responding; Disconnecting... then the game crashes and I get a DC penalty.
Is this a frequent issue on the PS5? I never experienced this on Switch except for one three week period where the software would close.

I am now receiving this exact message after being disconnected unwillingly. Then, the game completely crashes. I'm on Ps4.

Probably because the playerbase is split between the two modes and so you're playing against players you normally wouldn't. Just a guess.

I think, as a modifier, this is a successful gaming experience that can still be improved and expanded. However, I can't imagine that a permanent 2v8 mode would make sense. You can already see that in the Q for the normal games. I think the player base would split up too much and it would generally lead to longer waiting times in the lobby.
What do you think about this?
Agree 💯

In the menus, go to Graphics, turn on FSR and set it to 100%

I think it's because we probably have a lot of new people playing because of the free weekend

I think so. My friend who plays only on Nintendo Switch is having no problems at all so it's not a Switch exclusive thing.
There's a connection here and I just hope one of the devs will look at it because now I literally can't play period. The game will crash on either platform and the DC penalties will continue to stack.

I'm worried this may be an issue for people who did cross-progression between Nintendo Switch and PlayStation.
I decided to play on Switch again because I keep crashing on PlayStation 4 and now Switch is disconnecting me too.

Now I'm pretty convinced this is an issue for Switch players who went to Playstation.

It’s possible. I edited my comment because it might be a problem with the cloud storage. Maybe upload some cloud data and delete it?
It's too late now, it's initializing but I didn't have any cloud data because DBD stores our data on their servers, not locally on our consoles.

You might check out this guide if you haven't already. It has a little bit of some extra actions you may try and see if you have any success. I wouldn't throw away the console quite yet. With that code I'm thinking it's more likely to be a bug in software somewhere that will be an easy fix. Worst case a new storage device.
Edit: Did you try it with any other games to see if you get the same blue screen w/ error code?
The only other game I own is The Disney Afternoon Collection, it doesn't crash but it's not an online game either.
I bought my PS4 brand new in 2018 I think.
I just never used it more than a handful of times but I got it up and running because I couldn't handle DBD on Switch any longer.
I tried everything I could. My PS4 is initializing aa I type. The screen says it will take 2 hours.
I also wonder if it's a bug happening because of cross-progression from Switch to Playstation. Like others in the bug reporting section, I have the same Friends List problems.

Good luck! 🙏
If you have to initialize the console, there are ways to preserve your game saves so you don't have to lose any data. Playstation Plus gives you a certain amount of free cloud space to store save data. You'd basically just have to upload your save data to the cloud, then redownload it after initializing the console.
Alternatively, you could use a USB drive. Any USB would do. After initializing, you would just plug it back in and download the data.
Let's hope you don't have to initialize the console, though!

Only made it through one match, crashed on the second match with the same error.
I now have a 30 minute DC penalty.
I'm going to have to initialize now. I have no data to back up so I'm just going to do it.
Fingers crossed this works because I just spent all that money buying this game and DLC again because of how cross-progression with Switch is limited. I can't afford another console anytime soon.

I called Playstation support and they walked me through rebuilding the database.
The representative insisted that I must delete the game and reinstall after the rebuilding and before attempting to play again. So I just did that which took an hour.
I'm letting the system cool down now and will try to play in a little while.
Thank you for your post, I appreciate you 🙏
Wish me luck. If this didn't work, the next step is to initialize the entire console according to the representative.
