Jumping on the Hatch while being chased by a Doctor was perfectly safe.
Back then, it was not.

Tbf they have a good point, you'd be a good member of the trusted team™
Thank you, so much!
I don't think I deserve such praise, but it warms my heart to read it.

Poor Krueger deserves a break man. They've put him through so many ridiculous changes: an unnecessary rework, a nerf that made him even more boring to play as, as well as making him very perk-reliant, and giving him mediocre add-ons.
Oh, there is also that initial and extremely undeserved nerf merely a week after his release, which is directly responsible for his rework years later, and the most recent nerf.
Freddy's journey in DBD is the most tragic. He received so many changes, even though his very first version was perfect...
@Remedicist said:
I remember when Freddy had a unique, different playstyle power with good addons. Now he is just a normal killer with nothing really defining him. His power is lackluster, his addons even more so and do not add to his gameplay, and the Dream World poses no real threat to the survivors. Old Freddy's power and gameplay had all of this and only needed some slight buffs that @GeneralV listed in a feedback forum discussion. His rework was unnecessary and I wish they would revert it with some small changes.
Thanks!
Though I only really thought about the Incapacitated status effect and incorporating the Dream Projection. Everything else came directly from his on-release version, which was, imho, the only perfectly designed killer in DBD.

You’re one of the few people who can stay civil in this hellhole of a forum while also being able to progress the discussion. You would make a great example to the rest of us.

Indeed. @GeneralV is pretty much universally liked, way more than I am either way lmao
I...do not know what to say...I don't even have words for this!
Thank you so much, my friends!
I will never forget your kindness.

Well I know a lot of them resigned for a lack of a better word before my time here...and then a lot of them either don't play anymore so have no reason to be on the forums. Boss was the last somewhat active one but he quit after Boons were released because he couldn't use Devour Hope anymore.
We definitely need more however. Karu would be one I'd like to see. General would also make a good one as far as I'm concerned. Cashel too. Definitely a lot of options for new people.
Me?
You flatter me, my dear friend.
I do not deserve such praise.

I see very few faces from years ago, if any. Most left or got banned.
A terrible situation which, unfortunately, we can only sit by and watch.
Or leave, obviously.

A terrible feeling, yes.

Probably not. If I stop playing a game, I like to distance myself as much as possible.
Ah, I see.
Lets hope they release something that you enjoy, them. At the very least to stick around a bit longer.

That is hysterical 🤣.
What's ironic is that it seems like the biggest horror icons are what need a rework. I want to see Freddy go back to more of what he used to be, and Michael Myers desperately needs something, anything to help him compete in 2022.
Knew you would like it :)
The devs must listen to us on this one. Current Freddy's existence gives me nightmares (pun intended).
If only it was up to me...Oh, if it was up to me...

Depends how long I play DBD for. If I stop playing the game, then I'll probably stop using the forums too.
And with how a lot of my survivor games are going, it's looking that way; the same pattern happened before leading to a 3 month break. Only reason I came back was to play with friends again and then I once more got addicted.
Well...I stopped playing DBD, but I am still here.
Isn't there a chance for you to do the same, in order to avoid this terrible outcome?

That with the shadowborn that would increase your brightness
That was an interesting effect.
Lightborn also used to make your vision a bit dimmer, iirc.

I really do not wish to see this sad ending.

To be fair compared to all of the killers right now the shape is pretty gimicky/cheesy but i hate that people have to take this game so seriously now to where the only fair killers are ones that are predictable.
Nah, it is inexcusable. If they were saying this about, idk, Spirit...I would've understood (with a bit of effort, granted).
But Myers? That is way too far.

DBD was nowhere near the scariest it was in the earliest days. There were map offerings to make the map darker which was awesome.
I know the precious treasure you speak of:
Should've never been removed, tbh.

Yeah, what most people said here is pretty accurate.
Many old faces seem to be missing.

I love Fire-Up + Brutal on Pallet Freddy @_@
I did that sometimes.
It was useful...but not really fun.
-
It was rare for me to play without Brutal Strength or Fire Up.
It just felt so slow without it.

@[Deleted User] said:
I wish that's what people thought instead of getting salty at myers players for being "cheap". Yeah okay Iron Will user.
If some people are unironically calling Myers "cheap", then current DBD is way worse than I thought it was.
-
From the day I started playing DBD, back in 2018, until I left the Fog earlier this year, most of my Survivor experience was solo.
And yes, I reached the same conclusion...
It is not nearly as bad as most people say.
My build was usually something along the lines of Self-Care / Sprint Burst / Iron Will and Borrowed Time.
-
During what I consider to be DBD's golden age of spookiness (2017), Freddy and Michael were definitely the scariest killers in the game.
-
There isn't. Not anymore.
Freddy was completely ruined in July of 2019, and the fact that nothing has been done yet is genuinely concerning.
I made it my personal mission to do my absolute best to bring his on-release version back to the Fog. I mention this precious killer at every opportunity, insist on his return whenever I can.
Though...I admit to you, my friend...
It is hard to keep talking when your words always fall on deaf ears.
EDIT: I thank you for helping raise awareness about this matter.
Here is a funny gift, as a sign of appreciation:

I mean.. you are already lost since you are not even playing this game anymore.
i do agree management should change, or at least change the way they are handling this game now.
More resources for Quality Assurance. More focus on game health, game balance, QoL, accessibility instead of new characters. Don’t make a pact with the devil just for a license (looking at you Pinhead!). More communication and transparency.
don’t just revert something to their old flawed instance just because the new instance is flawed though.
The game may be ruined for me, but I am still here, am I not?
I am still trying to make the game better, return to the game I genuinely loved. I don't consider it a loss.
It is...a commitment.
"More resources for Quality Assurance. More focus on game health, game balance, QoL, accessibility instead of new characters. Don’t make a pact with the devil just for a license (looking at you Pinhead!). More communication and transparency."
A pity this is clearly too much to ask from BHVR.

Oh I would love it if they were faster with this stuff.
but it won’t happen.
and you specifically would still not like the changes they would make. Keep in und there is divisive feedback on almost every topic.
Then...we are lost.
Which leaves one option...new management.
I don't know how, but it is what should happen.

I don't think it is OP, but I also don't like its effect.

I don't want to see a reworked map ever again.

a poll here on the forums? Yeah that will probably result in this.
but the forums are still a minority and if you had taken a poll back then most people would have wanted Freddy to be changed (because him not being able to attack outside of dreamworld was ridiculous) and Billy to be nerfed (really I never got why people now say he was the most balanced, it’s something brought up after the nerf)
and something else. They are slow. Extremely slow. Just look at OoO or DS. They listened to the community but just took ages.
Extend it, then. One of those surveys for the whole community. The result would be the same, regardless.
Or better yet, just make the appropriate changes and watch the feedback. People are tired of having those two boring and uninteresting killers in the game.
If the only problem is being slow, then it is time to fix that. They have the feedback, money and resources.
They just need to make the changes.
It is that simple.

They are listening. But they don’t just implement everything suggested especially not if only demanded by a vocal minority.
as I said, I don’t agree with many of their decisions. But it’s very obvious they are taking feedback into consideration. And it doesn’t help at all to say they are not. Then you could just as easily stop with your feedback.
The thing is, this is not a vocal minority.
You could do a massive poll regarding Freddy and Billy and most people would vote for their old versions. And this is merely one of countless examples.
BHVR definitely isn't listening to anything we say and recent events have been pure disappointments over and over again. I assure you that if everyone just ceased their feedback completely, or unanimously supported something, it would make zero difference.

I like the old winter solstice event , alot of people have forgotten we used to get an event in December and for some odd reason they just dropped it and never used it again, for me it's things like this that keep the game entertaining, they should do events more often if they want to keep the game alive
As someone who started playing DBD in December of 2018, I definitely agree.

But the very fact they changed Billy and Freddy is proof they are listening to feedback.
Billy was easily in the top3 back then. And Freddy has become a meme of a bad killer. (I do think Billy nerf was overdone and Freddy should have gotten QoL changes and buffs btw). Just bringing the old versions back is not the right way to go and not what everyone is asking for
Uhhh, not quite...
Billy was indeed the third strongest killer in the game back then, but also regarded by the community as the most balanced. Not a single soul had a problem with Billy's base kit, and no one wanted it nerfed. Some people complained about Insta-Saw only, which is highly debatable depending on when you are.
Freddy, on the other hand, received many pleas for buffs and QoL improvements, but never a full rework.
Both got changed. Their current versions are heavily disliked and there are many threads asking for them to return. You've perfectly pointed out yourself the problems :
"I do think Billy nerf was overdone and Freddy should have gotten QoL changes and buffs btw"
Absolutely correct.
Now, people want their killers back, or most aspects of them at the very least, and BHVR doesn't do anything about. They aren't listening to feedback, my friend.

Every event has different hooks and gens, the cosmetics were pretty bad and it took a lot of time to get them and the thing about being the best state of the is debatable.
The only pros i can give that event are the lobby music and the gens that looked pretty sick.
Uhhh...no?
Recent (and pathetic) events such as Scarlet Swarm, Eternal Blight, 5th Year Anniversary, Gilded Stampede, Advent Calendar and Midnight Grove did not have special cosmetics that could be unlocked through the main objective.
Heck, only the anniversary and recent halloween had cosmetics that you could earn, and both were EXTREMELY bad.
Additionally, the only debatable thing here is whether or not those cosmetics were good, and I think they were.

ST leaving the Fog is devastating, but it doesn't mean the game is dying.
Current DBD is way more popular than it deserves to be.

Expecting BHVR to fix something is the same as expecting pigs to fly.
Except that Pigs have a chance of flying (if you got this reference).
BHVR fixing something? Not so much.

It's talking his old state, that would be revert. Your idea would be a rework
Well, OP did mention my suggestion here.

They do?

It is merely the truth.

There is a Feedback section, yes, but don't expect them to take it into consideration.
If they did, Old Billy and Old Freddy would be back by now.

@blue4zion said:
He needs a revert on some of the base power changes, but keep the slowing during placement.
Addons need another revision but other than that he's ok.

what waschbar was so good about BBQ?
hallowed blight I can understand because an actual different mechanic with the pustula flowers (and I remember the vast majority of the community complained about them; but at least I can see that it was something special). BBQ was literally only reskinned stuff and iirc only one Kate shirt and Hillbilly weapon to earn.
Special hooks, special gens, cosmetics that you can actually earn, and a hell of a good theme.
Though, let us be honest...one of the reasons why that event is so good...is because the game was on its best state ever, back then.
EDIT:
See his gesture? It forms a "V".
You know why?
Because the raccoon supports GeneralV for Dead by Daylight's owner!

@Mooks said:
Unpopular opinion but I don’t like Events that change/add game mechanics like the pumpkins. I would rather see something new like that added to the base game. (I miss the pumpkins…)
Events gens/hooks/dekos, Lobby, items etc are great. But people will still say BBQ event was better than modern ones even though they were functionally the same.
Event tomes should be added to the archive. Missing some BP and didn’t read all the story’s from Midnight Grove..
BBQ Event was the best tho...
Second only to the legendary Hallowed Blight.

I would say...nothing.
Nothing at all.
