    In order to help the community as a whole, the devs should not only be banning DCs/overly toxic players, but should also be removing players that are "under performing", aka "bads".

    Criteria: Losing 30%+ of games in a week. Statistically, anyone who is legit trying to play the game will never have less than 30% of game losses, just like they should theoretically never DC innocently more than 30% of the time.

    Define "losing"

    Survivor: Failing to escape
    Killer: Failing to kill 2/4
    According to BHVR, these are the criteria for "average" games.

    Result: No longer eligible to play in public games, but can still participate in KYF matches.

    This would help better players have better quality games overall. People who clearly don't actually want to play the game, but lack the intelligence and/or willpower to just uninstall and move on, are no longer able to ruin the game for everyone else. By being restricted to KYF games only, they can [BAD WORD] off all they want during their games (and also make it impossible to refund since they can still play the game without the online factor - see F13 for reference).

    Dude this is extremely selfish thing to even post...this would not be a fair ban

    I think a new killer could destroy survivors' hopes and trust: the Thing, with the power to become very similar to a survivor previously hit! It would be very nasty!
    + 1 from me... I actually posted Exactly the same thing few months back
  • Everything is a piece of the entity... Everything is the entity
  • Maybe? I dunno, possibly! Sounds fun, though, I wonder what the lore would be. Maybe if they really wanted to they could give the Clown a Plaque Doctor Alternate, making it so he's a similar ability but the same general killer, the Afterpiece Tonic could be like, I dunno... An Elixer to heal?
    I am terrible at coming up with new killer ideas.

    Maybe he could use his syringe to get survivors infected with that corruption what those plants did to some killers
  • Yes it's very likely/possible.

    I thought it because i saw that trailer from the last stream and that mystery man with a syringe looked just like A plague doctor but he did not wear a hat but a hood

    this idea would cause half the current killers to dc, while making the other half crazy op

    Jesus christ - theres a reason there are perks to counter things.

    All these killers that think they shouldn't "need" to run certain perks because they think killers should be able to counter everything a survivor does in the base kit is ridiculous, get better at the game and stop whining ffs

    Imagine that someone behind you is going to throw ######### on you... How do you counter it? My point is that you can't counter what you can't see (survivor perks) 
  • Join us today for an exclusive DBD slide show on PS4!!

    Haha... I feel your pain man and it sucks big time... Lol
  • Pfffffff hahaha dude sorry but I see this and all I can think is run for the hills by Metallica as he chases yoy but I will.say use it to the good of the rest and lead him around so he cannot get others for a bit turn your bad luck into killer getting mad
    Dude im pretty triggered that you think that run to the hills is Metallica song it is actually Iron maiden lol
  • @FinLadd said:

    Then the only way balance this is deleting all the perks from the game or give the killer fifth perk slot

    there is one simple way to balance swf imo , cut out the exp and bloodpoint counts from a swf group . That way those who just want to have fun with friends can , and they don't have to balance around it and making it too hard for killer against the majority of swf , or to hard for solo survivors to play against killers . If you don't reward something people wont use it to their advantage , that should also take a lot of the toxic behavior out of it since those players usually rely on anything but skill to play and if they stand nothing to gain whats the point for them to do it .

    You know that it would mean that the killer can not get bp either and there is still that randomness who are you killing... swf or solo players

    Despite its description, Spine Chill works off of a (tight) cone, same as Premonition. Killers would definitely look in your direction as they were headed toward you, and if you were to simply position yourself strategically, this wouldn't be a problem to begin with. The same thing applies to Premonition - positioning would become relevant. Right now I can hold M1 and just leave in the opposite direction the Killer is coming from without a care in the world, no matter where I am on the generator.

    The Shape can't pull anyone off anything when you can simply rotate your camera 360º the whole time.

    ok im sorry i thought you meant like a first person view not just forced forward in third. but yes the shape pulls me off when running moniter and abuse at tier 1 50% of the time by being very sneaky

    Nah, not first person. I don't like having my face stuck in a generator any more than you do.

    I honestly don't know how you get pulled off. I had a Shape try that on me and as soon as I heard the heartbeat (no M&A, obviously, but still), I was out of there and lost him. He only managed to get that close because I got sloppy and stopped looking around. I mean, he wears a bright white mask. It's almost impossible not to see him.

    i know right. to be fair it was on lerys memorial institute i was on the middle gen and he dropped from above and grabbed me. i literally died right then and there from a heart attack.

    Should i call ghostbusters? 
  • sulaiman said:

    The problem is: I do swf even without voice chat, because that way i can actually play the game as it is intended. If you play solo, often you play 3v1, because one disconnects in the loading screen, or at the beginning (giving you 5 gens to do with 3 survivors), or when dowend the first time.

    Also, if its down to you and another one, you are not the looser because you try to do gens until caught while the other one hatchcamps, waiting for you to die.

    Thats the reasons why swf is important in this game.

    Then the only way balance this is deleting all the perks from the game or give the killer fifth perk slot
  • @Orion that is why i hate totems... Cuz totems are garbage 
  • So the spirit has a obsession perk I find to be a better version of NOED. Am I wrong about that.

    NOED is a hex which means the exposed status effect, the recover boost and speed boost can be disabled. Where...

    Rancor can't disable the exposed status, but no recover or speed boost. On top you see the survivors for a few seconds every time they finish a gen. with the trade off you see them for 5/4/3. when all the gens are done you can Mori your obsession though.

    Personally I'm not a great player but I'd say Rancor beats NOED. 

    NOED is the best perk you can have in my opinion

    I don't know if people weren't trying or if people were just new but in just barely two hours using camping and tunneling I got Adept Hillbilly, Adept, Cannibal, and Adept Hag in one day.

    I understand that it can be even stronger with specialized builds, but using just the default unique perks for each killer nets gains when you can camp right.

    You done fukked up bro... Brace yourself

    Oh dear, I mentioned how two mildly annoying strategies are effective on a handful of killers with just their unique perks, oh the humanity.

    I see your point and i get it but here on the DBD forums are pretty savage people so You should be prepared for the rip and tear comments lol

  • Im a killer main but i feel like it is a wasted time cuz the power you should have is not there but as a survivor i escape 90% of the time... I play survivor only if i have daily challenges and they are easy to complete... Lol

    the hatch is a free escape
    It is a Lil bit unfair True... But it is still my own fault i did not find him/her
  • Iceman said:


    I say there should be at least 3-4 generators that needs to be done in order for a hatch to open. 2 generators states that the game wasn’t going to well so you basically lost. However we have no idea of telling who won or lost. In identity V it tells you who won, lost or if it was draw. 

    And I am not sure if you saying you can get kills easily,but I disagree. It is more challenging for the killer than the survivor unless you are fully new to the game. 
    What i ment was that if survivors fukk up... I forgot to mention that im a killer main but 4k is no easy task if survs play well but it needs only one mistake to die
  • It would take 8 hooks in total to swipe a team but now it take 12 hooks... I think it would be welcome change cuz you would play survivor more stealthier and carefully.

    @Rainbow_Turd said:
    Is it me or is the new update favoring the Killers. One of the updates is once a generator is complete not only can the killer see the aura of the generator but can also see the aura of a survivor for 5 seconds. Seriously?!!!

    The only time its impossible to survive is when all 3 other survivors DC at the beginning of the game.
    I even managed to lose against a competent 2 man one day, that was a sad day.....

    I would have cried for sure

  • Or... maybe death is not an escape, but neither is life because the survivors are actually all dead in the physical world. Death is the prison in which the Entity holds them. Maybe this is some Gantz type of ######### where the survivors did indeed die and the Entity holds their consciousness in this eternal game of fear and pain, but if they meet certain requirements, the Entity will grant them a second chance at life and release them.

    Maybe too deep ######### for a game
  • I pictured something like a two layer map. The top being mostly flat, with occasional brush and trees...maybe a building.

    The bottom would be like the catacombs under Paris(I think that's where they are..).

    Creepy, and yet very doable for a maze like structure underneath....and a mostly normal above.


    Either that....or we use a broken down mansion that frames a hedge maze garden on three sides. The mansion would have two floors(or more), and the maze would be of a moderate size and contain a fountain or statue in the center.


    mazes are wonderful...but if they have no reason for being there....it feels more like a minigame.(And right now...dead by daylight has enough of that going around.)

    Maybe 2 part game where you have 4 gens on the top layer and after powering 2 of them the bottom maze layer open and the real trial begins?

  • Peanits said:

    Now I'm not going to say everything about totems is perfect, but every other post I see has someone claiming Hex: Ruin is a must use perk. So staying as objective as possible, I don't think they're that bad. I'm totally down for some better totem spots, with TOTH, it's fairly easy to keep tabs on it.

    That is True my friend but you have to choose between gens and totems you can't do that.

    Is getting 100% achievements really that big of a deal though? If he got into a locker and you didn't tombstone him you didn't actually earn the achievement. You also come off as a spoiled child in your conversation. The dude has no obligation to just let you kill him with a tombstone.

    Spoiled child? Are you kidding me try going for a 4K tombstone myers achievement in rank 6 without Ruin i [BAD WORD] earned that ######### and i get a petty brat holding the game hostage because he thinks hes being cute/funny. I dont bust my ass off at work to come home and bust my ass even more while playing a game and have all that hard work ruined because of some scum. 

    You are the petty brat dude. You just want the guy to hand over himself so you can get an achievement. Why should he? You didn't earn it. Just hook the guy and try again until you get it. Don't beg and whine like you deserve something.

    Bud he took advantage of a game mechanic, purposefully. That is taking the game hostage esp when it prevents the killer to do a task that was inclined to happen. 2 I DID EARN IT I SPENT 20 MIN IN THAT GAME FARMING THE TOMBSTONE WHICH THEN I HAD TO KILL ALL THE OTHER 3 SURVS AND THEN HAD TO PLAY WITH A KID UNTIL I FINALLY GOT THE TOMBSTONE ON HIM WHICH THEN HE DISCONNECTS BECAUSE HE KNEW MY INTENTION WAS FOR AN ACHIEVEMENT. NOW IM TYPING IN ALL CAPS BECAUSE THEN MAYBE YOU CAN READ WHAT IM SAYING. AND IVE DONE THIS ATTEMPT 9 TIMES TO HAVE IT COME DOWN TO A PETTY KID HIDING IN A LOCKER OVER AND OVER AGAIN.

    Dude relax it is just a game... No need for this kind of behaviour.

    A lot of people playing this game enjoy playing it with friends. If you implement this idea, then queue times for SWF will go through the roof. They could go solo, but what's more likely to happen is that they'll leave DBD and play a different game to hang out with friends. Punishing people for playing in a group could end up causing a large chunk of players to leave, essentially killing this game. I'm all for balancing the game, but I don't think that this is the best way to go.

    Point was that killers should have A choice to have A fair game

    I know that, but most killers won't choose to play SWF groups. This would cause a massive spike in queue times for a large chunk of the player base and possibly drive them away, which would increase queue time for killers and solo survivors as well. A lot people play this game with their friends, so excluding them could hurt the game. Again, I agree that SWF is too strong and should be balanced, but this option could end up killing DBD.

    Devs could do another Mode where 2 swf groups could face 2 killers... That would be awesome 
  • CoolAKn said:

    It would be nice if the killer could choose where the hexes are placed. I know it would take a huge amount of time and effort for the devs, but it would be interesting if during the loading screen, the killer can customize the where their hex perk(s) go. This can work in one of two ways, both of which gives the killer an advantage over the survivors by knowing the terrain in advance.

    1. The killer would be given 30 seconds to free roam the map at 300% speed before the survivors spawn in. In this time, they would be completely unable to use their powers, and be able to see the auras of generators and hooks (places to avoid placing their hexes). The killers would be able to place the hex totems in a place of their choosing, requiring the hex perks be placed a certain distance away from each other (so they can't be clustered together). Placing a hex totem would work exactly like a Trapper placing his traps. Once the 30 seconds are over, the killer's vision will be masked and will be loaded into their spawn point. Any unplaced hex totems will then be randomly placed. Perhaps make killers always spawn in the basement (also for them to know exactly where it is), and have hex perks required to be placed a certain distance away from the basement.

    2. The killer would be given 30 seconds to see a map of the trial. The map would show the location of all generators and hooks, and there would be dozens of circles of places hex totems could be placed (in the case of The Game, the top and bottom floors would show up side-by-side. The killer can select a circle, and the designated hex perk will spawn there. If the killer has more than one hex perk, the next hex would require it be placed a certain distance away from the first. After 30 seconds, the map goes away, and any unplaced hex totems will then be randomly placed.

    Option A would allow the killer to attempt to make the hex totems hidden, whereas Option B would assign it to the general area. I'll be frank, as a survivor main, the totems have some crappy spawn points. I feel bad when hex totems can be found out in the open, like there was no attempt at all for the game to conceal it.

    Dude yes. .. We need this but im afraid that we will never get these awesome ideas through that People write on this forum

  • Snapshot said:

    Also, ruin on high rank = wasted perk slot. I am not the best survivor, I have to say but even I can hit the great skillcheck 75% of the time I would say. Also ruin probably never survives more than a minute anyway. I rather just equip devour hope or any other non-hex perk

    Exactly

    As you "protect" gens from being worked on/completed.

    There´s currently a Humble Bundle spooky sale. Where you can pickup DbD alongside other games for 15$. Or you wait for a normal sale. DbD has roughly 1 sale per month where the price drops to 10$.
    The best killers are free. But every DLC has at least some nice perks. You can unlock the original killers with playtime. But that takes about 6 weeks for a single killer. On pc we have often dlc sales, where the price drops to about 50%.

    I think I saw dlc sales for ps4. That said, if you play, you will eventually get those shards anyway, so even if takes 6 weeks, you will still get those

    Does that mean we can buy killers with Shards?

    Yes

    Not DLC killers tho

    This can't be for real otherwise all game companys would be broke in no time. 

    Yeah, I call bullshit. Such a price would make publishers go bankrupt, because they don't get 40000 per patch; patches are essentially irrelevant in terms of sales. Probably just another publisher whining about how game development is super expensive, even though game-related profits have constantly increased.

    1) It did cost this much at the time the article was written. It was a huge point of contention between MS and indie devs for a long time until MS somewhat recently dropped to patch fee completely.
    2) Do you have ANY idea how much it costs to make a game nowadays? Here is a chart from a decade ago...
    (Here's the link, IDK why the picture is so small https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/vgsales/images/c/c6/Factor_5_dev_costs.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20080705213346)

    $20 million baseline to make a successful game in 2006. You know what it would cost today? $500 MILLION. Yep. That's the MINIMUM you need to make super high profile games like CoD or Battlefield. MINIMUM. And those games have way bigger budgets than $500 million. "But BVHR isn't EA/Activision, they are a small team with a small game." True, but that doesn't mean it's cheap for them to develop DBD. Chances are the game has costed them 10's of millions by this point, but since they make millions more over that budget (ie. profit) they can afford to continue to develop content for the game (which costs more money BTW). Trust, if the game wasn't making a profit we wouldn't be getting any more content right now.

    Source for the graph? Is it adjusted for inflation?

  • Hello fellow developer,

    i watched your Q&A Video on youtube and i love the idea about the end game chase.
    It would make the game in the end for both sides funnier (maybe a little hard for the survivor).


    That tension would be awesome
