I played four survivor games and every single one had two bots. The bots, not surprisingly, were useless.
Same here. My one and only Killer game also had 2 bots.
In custom and regular trials, they are a nightmare for me as a Killer and I don't mind them as teammates.
However, I've had 4 outrageous trials with them today.
As Killer, they literally ran right up to me.
When playing Survivor, I had one slowly walk up to a caged teammate and not unhook them! It was as though BOT Vittorio was griefing!
BOT Leon missed every skill check on a generator and BOT Zarina fast vaulted a window for no reason after I healed her which got me caught by the Killer.
I've been playing for hours and haven't had a single match with all humans. Has anybody?

I didn't need to. The current legacy skins would lose their "value" or "wow" effect from them being so rare if you'd just be able to get them by reaching P100. New skins, that's a different story.
I have never played in a game where a legacy skin player wasn't a blatant hacker. If anything, they're a red flag. I lobby dodge them every time now although they're rare to see.

My P100s are all licensed characters so bhvr can't even make them a legacy skin.

It certainly seems to be an issue with them going down a lot. I've only had a PS5 since August and this is the 4th time there's been an outage like this.

No. Some of them can even give you away if you're hiding in a dark corner in dark clothing.
As Killer, I'll find crouched and hiding Survivors who otherwise would have blended in with their hiding spot and their charm(s) catch my eye and gives them away.

https://forums.bhvr.com/dead-by-daylight/discussion/437984/behavior-is-killing-their-own-game
There's a lot to unpack with this post, so I'll go point by point.
It's no surprise that Behavior thinks the ideal for any killer is a 60% killrate, that's the game that they envision, and it's obviously a hot debate if it should be 60% or not.
Sure, I have my gripes with the hooks (I think they spawn fairly TOO close together rendering Flip Flop builds useless). I do think it was an issue where survivors would go down in a certain spot to prevent the killer from hooking them. Hooks respawning is a mixed bag for me, but I understand why Behavior allowed for hooks to respawn due to the issue I provided above.
The 5% regression isn't a huge deal to me, if a killer keeps returning back to it, then the survivor can always do another gen. It only takes one survivor to stop it from regressing to trigger a regression event (a maximum of 8). I find that too many survivors (and I noticed this as a killer) will typically play very selfish to pop a gen and will primarily go down for it instead of just working on another gen and allowing a teammate to do it (especially if the survivor in question is injured).
I will agree that the mori system that they implemented does incentivise slugging and definitely pushes more people to slug for the 4k. Regardless, a killer will slug the third and still work for a 4k. It just seems more annoying to you, as you wait for the survivor to die, don't get hatch, and you're moried as the last survivor.
I don't disagree that some of the events that they introduced are more killer sided, like the previous Haunted by Daylight event. It was annoying to get double tapped by the skull and the notification that a survivor is in the void was something that they didn't need to add — as that would make survivors avoid the void in general, as we saw many complain about during that time.
I disagree about Alert being useless, I enjoy the perk as a whole and it's very great for chase potential as the killer kicks a pallet and you're guaranteed to win a mind game. Stake Out is dependent on the killer's terror radius, therefore no terror radius = no stake out tokens, it sucks, but that's how the perk works. Distortion is good if you're great at chase potential, I like to use it still from time to time to gain information on what perks the killer is using but that's just me. I won't deny that it's been nerfed, but it's still viable for me as I like to have chases in the game.
Hex: Ruin is very weak compared to its previous iterations and hardly does much gen regression as a whole. If you want Blast Mine value, go find and cleanse Ruin (or other totem related perks), again Ruin counters Blast Mine and there's a workaround to that. As you've mentioned with Hex: Devour Hope — the same applies to Hex: Ruin. Typically totems spawn in jungle gyms, inside of main building, shack, and on hills. I don't know your hours, but the more you play, the better it is to memorize totem spawn locations to help you here.
Even if SWF didn't exist, killers would still play the exact same way regardless. The higher you get in MMR, the better your teammates get, along with the killers you get. Killers would still be running the same perks they use now, incorporate the same strategies that they have now, and play in the exact same manner. Typically, people don't load up a game of Dead By Daylight to farm and take it easy especially the higher in MMR you go. People play to the best of their abilities and do what they can to win, Dead By Daylight is no exception to this.
Dracula's Bat form is by far the weakest part of his kit - yes, it gives him mobility but that's all it does. You render his power useless by simply walking. If he follows you into bat form - just stay at the pallet and pallet stun him to get him out of his bat form. Weave Attunement has been nerfed - if you notice the killer is running the perk - place your item in a corner of the map, and play accordingly. Franklin's and Weave is a weak combination as that means the killer more than likely isn't running much gen regression or aura reading perks.
Challenges are hard to do, especially with many involving you to go to basement with the glyph coin - however, what I like to do with those challenges is to focus on them when I have the free time to do so. Let's say the game started, I have the glyph to go to basement — normally, I would do the challenge when almost all the gens are done or at the end game because then I don't feel useless the whole match running to basement to do the glyph challenge. It's all about time management in the game, but you will get the hang of it the more you play. 😊
For the White Glyph Challenges, you get 25,000 Bloodpoints if you escape with it.
What I do is select the Challenge and just don't attempt the Challenge in a match until I come across a Killer who is just farming or meming around.
That way, I can be assured that not only will I complete the Challenge, but I'll also escape with the Bloodpoints bonus.

I don't know what where they cooking with the controls, the amount of button smashing for basic results is soo tedious I can't imagine how annoying it must be on controller.
Try setting pallets up at the start and take your time to activate them when a survivor is getting close to said pallet.
It's unpleasant on controller

Yes but the delay is intentional, it was in the patch notes, it's because they use the same button for switching abilities and teleporting so they made the distinction that you need to hold teleport.
I didn't see that. Thank you for the clarification, I appreciate it.

Now that you mention it, I realize you're probably right.
I mean, looking at some of the takes I see here on the forums, I can imagine people being annoying and choosing boring strong perks over interesting ones.
It could be a contest for a new type of general perk - one that both Killers and Survivors could equip. With the matchmaking incentives seemingly not working or intentionally lowered, as well as BP gains being gone from all perks, my personal perk would be called BP Hunter:
Gain 50/75/100% Bloodpoints in all categories.
I have mentioned before that some perks could be used on both sides.
The perk *Left Behind* could easily be a Killer perk for example.
I'd love our community to share their creations for Mutual Perks that can be used by either or both sides.

Yes there is a delay to teleporting, you need to hold the button for 0.5 seconds before you start teleporting.
So it's different for you too? As opposed to the previous version of Freddy? It feels like a bit longer than 0.5 but maybe that's just me.

@danielmaster87 said:
I don't feel that he's worse on console, other than what mentioned about the buttons being the same for teleport and for switching abilities, but I haven't had any problems with that. And I haven't felt delay on teleports.
It's unclear whether the pallet placement spots that are closer take priority when placing them, or if it's dependent on the direction you're looking. Some of those spots are really close to each other, and so it's hard to place/explode the one that you want. Btw, it's BS that the pallet count is so limited. That was a nerf from the previous Freddy nerf which made absolutely zero sense, because his pallets were by far weaker than his snares, and shouldn't have been punished for how well he was doing overall. His pallets never had anything to do with why he was "OP." But yes, his pallets shouldn't be droppable by awake survivors, and they certainly shouldn't stun you. Great job, devs, by turning a game breaking bug into a regular feature. You surprise me once again.
If people think he's worse than he was, they're just wrong. But that doesn't mean he's fine. He's super duper weak, and struggles to get downs so bad that tunneling and slugging often don't even help him that much. The survivors are awake far too often. Them getting woke up by getting downed was a horrible change, because now any slug that gets picked up has to be hit by 2 dream snares or whatever to get put back to sleep, and only then can you use your power for anti-loop. That's absolutely terrible. I think they could do away with clock sleep immunity altogether. Make them take longer to fall asleep, or whatever. But that sleep immunity is so dumb. And he feels really add-on dependent. I don't know why you'd make add-ons that affect his snare speed and slowdown duration change, because he needs those base anyway.
You *don't* feel the delay? You're incredibly lucky as it's very frustrating on PS5.
You hold L1 for a second, assume that you did the other L1 prompt by accident, then the teleporting starts and cancels so you have to wait for the cooldown.
For me, I have to hold L1 for a couple seconds and hope that it knows what I want. The timing is very off.

Respect. I’m always struggling to sit there and convince my self to spend bloodpoints. It takes so long.
I sincerely love spending bloodpoints, especially on a character that I plan to P100.
I never even use the auto purchase button in the Bloodwebs. I like to pick for myself what I want on them.
It can take me an hour to spend just 1.2 Million Bloodpoints on a Survivor because I often can't make up my mind on which section of the Bloodweb that I want The Entity to consume.
I love every minute of it. I'm very focused yet relaxed while spending.

The frames are terrible, your inputs are ever so slightly delayed, ping is high for everyone, and good luck playing a ranged charecter cause aiming with switch is one of the hardest things I’ve tried doing.
It’s also a kick in the balls cause the graphics are eh to be kind. Words on shirts are illegible and skins don’t look near as good as other consoles.
I played over 5,000 hours on Nintendo Switch until Cross-progression arrived and I bought a PlayStation 5 just for this game.
Hopefully these two pieces of advice will help you as they certainly did for me:
Number 1:
In the DBD main menu, press + and go to Graphics. Turn ON FSR and set FSR Sharpness to 100% (see image below)
This helps tremendously, specifically on the 4-man main Gen at Shelter Woods and the 3-man Gen in the front of the main building on the Alien map.
It was almost impossible for me to hit even a Good Skill Check on those Generators until this feature was released.
Number 2:
Purchase the officially licensed LAN Adapter:
I hope this helps you at least a little.

How do you have the motivation to prestige a character to 100? I couldn’t do it even when I wanted to. Respect.
My Sadako is prestige 18 and my sable is p 42. They are both my highest prestige on killer and survivor.
My motivation comes from my love for the characters.
My first P100 was Nancy because I like the actress that plays her, my second was Johnathan because his actor is dating her in real life.
I grew up watching the A Nightmare on Elm Street films and am a huge Freddy fan.
The grind to P100, to me at least, is more about displaying your love for a DBD character rather than showing off.
Those who understand know what I mean.
There comes a point where you feel obligated to P100 them - in a good way.
It's like one long journey you're on with your favorite character and it gives you a mountaintop to climb.

As in, oblivious with Lullaby while awake and Terror Radius in the dream?
Initially I was kinda scoffing at it… but as I thought about it more, it becomes an interesting thought… poses a question on whether or not to wake yourself up… he is a stealth killer while you're awake and an anti-loop killer while you're asleep… plus your M1s pull people into the dream, so it makes sense.
Also makes a number of perks more viable on him… like Starstruck, Infectious Fright, Hex: Face the Darkness, etc, and of course undetectable perks…. actually an intriguing idea 🤔
Let's say I'm playing as Freddy with Unforseen and two Survivors are awake, two asleep. Are the awake ones going to hear my TR on the gen but not the sleeping ones?
Same question about Pig & Ghostface. Assume they are running Unforseen, kick a generator, but then active their Undetectable power. Since in that moment they have no TR, does the Generator still have your TR?

Yeah, making it easier for survivors to just give up at the drop of hat would be a bad thing. Then, there would be no reason to Disconnect and no reason for a penalty. Disconnecting is against the rules, hence the punishment. "Going next" is the same as disconnecting, its just not something BHVR can really stop… but they don't have to make it easier.
Agreed 💯

I never dc, but my game does crash, a lot. Only DBD, not any other game. For some time my game keeps crashing on me, mostly in the middle or right at the end of matches. My screen freezes up and then I'm met with the DBD logo, then the matchmaking is locked for 1 minute, 5 minutes, 15 minutes, 30 minutes, then 45 minutes. And today, I got a 6 hour penalty cause my game crashed in my second match.
I've tried to contacting DBD support and praying for someone to answer me, but no one does, which only upsets me more. I'm actually worried about getting a permanent ban because of this, or weeks penalty for reasons I can't even control. I put time and money into this, and I love DBD. And it's not even me doing the dc'ing.
What platform are you on? Do you get any messages that say "Dedicated Server not responding... Disconnecting"?

Seriously, After 8 years, why are we not having it?
I dont want to keep playing a match after a robot tunnel out my teammate at 5 gens, why should I continue playing after that? You know its kinda impossible to win a 3v1 at 5 gens… or even a killer slugging all the team for 4 minutes, why these devs let these things happen? It sounds like the most boring af gameplay you could have, the opossite of good gameplay or design.
Even at 2v1, when the hide n seek starts is the most boring gameplay for both sides.
Tunelling and slugging are at an all time peak now, please BHVR, or at least give an incentive to survivors to keep playing, extra % at repairing, or whatever. Or give the killer incentives to NOT tunnel at 5 gens, or I dont know, basekit unbreakable??
Its impossible to have fun in solo Q man. I think I won 3 games in the last few days.
Maybe just a rant, but what is the funniest thing to me is that if I switch side, its a complete different game, I win almost every game. Yes, I can get a 4 man swf and they kick my ass, but whatever, its the least amount of matches. How can be so much easier to play as killer than as a survivor? And im not saying I want to win every game as survivor, but having a teammate killing themselves almost on every match, or someone tunelled out at 5 gens, makes having "fun" very hard.I play Killer almost always now and the same types of people ruin my Killer games.
I played as Ghostface last night and literally two Survivors just stood under hooks and pointed to them. I hadn't even got a hit yet!
I play Freddy and the first person gives up on hook.
I played Huntress last night too, 1 generator left and the Sable goes next on her first hook... with one generator remaining!
I don't know what to do anymore 😕

The entire match = no penaltyI was livid last week. I played a 30 minute match as Killer, maxed out all my points and was jumping in and out of snowmen for extra BP while the survivors escaped. As soon as the last survivor left, Boom 💥 Dedicated Server not responding...
I have learned, at least on PS5, if you go back to Killer lobby right after you'll notice your anniversary cake was consumed. However, if you then close the application and reopen the game, it is returned to you.
