there’s only 4, they are easily avoided, and they’re only relevant when you’re on their ass already.
you’re pretending like they were everywhere, like Larry’s EMP’s. They really weren’t.

making a post with a complaint is an overreaction?
plz dont act like im throwing threats or stuff like that. my reaction is totally valid here.
Surely you understand that your tone in the op was really sarcastic? There’s no need for that.

Oh they're releasing it a day earlier? Where did you hear this? :0
It’s releasing on a Monday, if I’m not mistaken. Thus far, most releases have been on Tuesdays or Wednesdays.
-
Bit of an overreaction, ngl.
The changes dropping earlier than release changes nothing about the released product. Hell, it's even releasing a day earlier than usual.
Besides, for all we know there isn't much changing to begin with. Xeno certainly didn't need any major number changes, as far as I could tell.

can we please please please wait until Alien's actually out until we start speculating what might be next

Fun fact, the evil queen never actually said that. It's "Magic Mirror on the wall." One of those mandela effects.
Well that’s just fascinating, cause from what I can gather, the original German version is “Spieglein, Spieglein an der Wand”
Disney may have gotten that one wrong, actually.

I don’t think they offer refunds on micropurchases.
’Sides, you were already playing with paid characters for free. I get that it sucks, but y’all have been taking advantage of a very gracious system for quite some time.

The funny thing about this is that the vast majority of the cast pre-Silent Hill is voiced in-house by BHVR. These speople generally speak French and English. You're never going to get an authentic Japanese-Jamaican voice for Adam that's also the original VA.

This Least Bittern is staring at you, waiting for you to love yourself 💖
Forgive my oversharing, but since I’ve embraced the birb lover persona, my life has radically changed. Thanks to just a small, but daily spark of joy, I eventually realised that Uni was simply not for me, which has done wonders for my self-image and general mood. Since I made the call to quit, I’ve been in touch with an autism-coach, I’ve started volunteering in a charity bookstore, I’ve found a new education to pursue that actually makes me excited to start, and just last week I hosted a bbq for my ex-student-accomodation hallmates (who were there for me! me and me alone!)
All that because of him:
When he released out of nowhere (to me), I couldn’t help myself and got really out-of-character excited, which I just kept up because I do love me some birbs. When that was noticed and appreciated, I came to the realisation that being a little silly about cute birbs was just a lot of fun. From there, bit by bit, I started choosing for myself more, not caring about what others think about it. And here we are.
Maybe it’s a bit silly to attribute the events of the last half-year to a silly little birb, but I’ve found that a little bit of silliness is not a bad thing at all.
-
If not Wednesday, it might be the Monday before.
-
2 chapters a year would result in long spans of content drought, so 3 chapters a year would be ideal, imo.
It would also bring back some of the hype of new releases. Quite a lot of chapters were teased in what felt like two weeks after the mid-chapter dropped.

Simply just Merchant.

haha yes I know that, but I have seen a few people claim they also said something about Js, it's very possible they're just spreading misinformation though, but honestly I don't care enough to go check the stream for myself lol, as I said even if it's true it's probably a stretch so it doesn't really matter either way
I mean, your insistence on it has made me doubt myself, so I may have missed something on my end.
Still, Alien's not even out yet, so it'll be a while before we know, regardless.

I think I remember everyone assuming we would get Jason because during the anniversary stream they made a comment about having multiple Js or something like that when presenting the roadmap. it's very possible my memory is faulty though, and even if it's true the "J" in the Alien chapter is for the cat so I don't think we could guess that easily tbh.
License with Big a L, ie., "big" licenses.. Not a J.

Where’d this come from? Alien’s not even out yet, why would they be teasing the next chapter already

This was YEARS before the realm beyond, not even comparable to the actual realm beyond graphic updates
This was around when doctor got his rework.
...that's literally what i said in my first post.
point being, Léry's was already graphically overhauled. As such, only Swamp remains.

Go watch JRM's recent video and your opinion might change.
Also Otz was calling Meatball strong at first too. People initially were positive on Meatball.
Time will tell. I could be wrong. But it looks bad imo for Alien. Especially when survivors get smarter with turret placement.
I would say there's a stark difference in between merely being slowed down and going on a cooldown; and putting in effort, losing distance, and seeing both investments go up in smoke because there was a printer nearby.
Like, Singularity can be strong. Deceptively oppressive, even. But he's arguably more map dependent than any other killer thus far. And, if he loses pressure for even the slightest moment, he may as well completely reset.
Xeno, on the other hand, never loses its ability to tunnel, for one. It can always switch to regular M1 mode, 'cause it'll be on your ass anyway when the flamethrower is relevant. Not to mention that Xeno can just smack 'em.
Singularity has way more potential than Xeno, I think. But Single Larry rarely fulfills that potential, whereas Xeno stays fairly consistent. It's only a cooldown, after all.

Yes but compared to the other map reworks, lerys got allmost nothing. they need to update the graphics all of them not just change the colors of some walls...., thats all the map needs
wouldn't call all this "almost nothing", ngl. The atmosphere was completely changed.

Unfortunately I think they will skip Lerys I think the very minor adjustments they did to it was all there were gonna do for realm beyond,
Swamp needs the unused variants brought in, they are awesome
Léry’s was the very first map to be updated in patch 3.5.0. It even came before the concept of “Realm Beyond” was coined. The Doctor’s model and power were also updated when that happened.

Thanks for the explanation. How would one best use that addon?
I mean, you can mark stuff. Hexes, gens that need to be prioritised. Up to you, honestly.
Chances are your teammates will ignore it regardless.

@I_CAME said:
I want it to get nerfed just because I am curious about which perk people will whine about next. There is always something.
See this is a curious sentiment, since MFT is still rather new. When we complained about DH, it was soon after it got fixed and players discovered its as-of-then unknown uses. Ie, fresh in players' minds. The same can be said for Hope.
Eruption, got buffed, got complained about a lot immediately after.
Overbrine, same deal.
CoH, same deal. Was just a bad idea from the get-go.
We don't complain en-masse 'cause we can, you know. There is always a reason. Either it's because it's a fresh addition, because it got buffed recently, or because players discovered a perk has more uses than they gave credit for, and those uses were too much.
There's 2 examples that I can think of that remained virtually unchanged, yet are still complained about; Nurse and NOED.
-
The endurance part of it is frankly bs. I'm going back 'n forth on the speed it gives.
Absolutely shouldn't stack with hope, though.
-
Have to say, I'm having a real hard time picking a favourite. I actually can't choose one.
Makes me wonder if we could get a new killer-only offering that makes the killer have the default TR, regardless of who it is. That way, we can give all the killers their own TR's, whilst also preserving the OG ones. + It's an interesting way to hide your chosen killer until the survivor has actually spotted you.

I give it more than I receive it, that's for sure.

But then it still has the exact same problem of addon clutter and reducing the chances of a green item you want because it's got a separate offering. So even if it isn't a new realm it doesn't fix anything.
you already know I’m way more in favour of expanding on existing realms than adding more and more realms with only 1 map
not to mention how wild it is that the offering is some man-sized doors. suspension of disbelief stretched very thin with that one

Well apparently there isn't a single employee at BHVR that can play their own game at the highest level on both sides, so how could we possibly expect them to balance either of those experiences in the best ways possible.. News flash.. We can't..
In conclusion and to summarize my thoughts on this entire teams efforts to try and make the game better for everyone.............. .......... .................................. ..................................................................... .............................................."Meh..".
It’s kind of a mad ask to not only make the game, but dedicate all of their free time to it as well. Developers have lives too, y’know.

That's a bug. It's called the Dvarka Deepwood in-game, but it has its own map offering to go to the Nostromo Wreckage. Even if it isn't a bug, the fact it has its own offering just means that it still adds to the problem of bloodweb clutter and too many map offerings.
It was tagged “not a bug” in the bug tracker.
-
But what will happen if you could? The killer will know that it's possible, and just wait for you to try. If you succeed, they just hit you again after 10 seconds.

These are part of a Mech collection, which released the same day the Alien PTB launched.

I have yet to not complete a rift, and since I purchased the rift once (and got one for free with prime) I see no reason not to get it.
Also, this rift has Space Birb on the very first level on the premium track, so…

Licensers can only pull out if a contract ends and they choose not to renew or if Bhvr breaches a contract somehow. Unless you're suggesting Bhvr signs contracts that say the licenser can pull out at anytime, but I don't think that's the case.

Why would Netflix be upset with how demo was presented? He's always been a solid, well-liked killer. This was almost guaranteed to be about money and them wanting to make their own Stranger Things game.
You’re right, what I was saying was too simplified. Regardless, the license holder is still within their right to just not extend the contract at some point, and since we’d never know when the thing was signed in the first place, that may appear as random to us players.

Do you have a source for that first portion, I hadn't heard that before.
May I ask where you got the impression that licenses can be permanent? I've never heard of that one.
As for my source, I believe it was mentioned in that one interview PaulieEsther (and someone else?) had with Côte, but I might be wrong there.
Regardless, it's all mostly speculation on our end anyway. What with NDA's 'n all.

Where have you heard BHVR leases IP's? Stranger Things was a unique scenario, but at least the content, aside from the map, remains in the game. I'm fairly certain when they make these contracts with IP's it's listed specifically that the content created is a permanent addition to the game but if there's a copy of one of these contracts online i'd be interested in reading it.
Any licenser can decide to pull out at any given time, and at that point it's out of BHVR's hands. Especially with a live service game, there's no such thing as a permanent license. At the same time, however, players are entitled to the content they've purchased. Which is why players who bought the ST characters and skins get to keep them, but the map had to be removed entirely.
Regarding ST, the consensus remains that it was Netflix that pulled out after 2 years, in favour of spending resources into their own dead-in-the-water gaming service. Mathieu himself has stated that, despite BHVR's efforts, there doesn't seem to be any chance of them regaining the license, because Netflix has outright ignored their inquiries.
-
I think the fact it grants an instant heal, plus a sprint burst, plus the fact that you can see the exact moment it's gonna proc regardless of what you're doing now, is a bit much.
The definition of a "win harder" perk, that just completely trumps any possibility of a comeback, especially when there's multiple.
-
This may sound strange, but I think the lack of voicelines is part of the appeal of playing survivor for a not-so-small portion of players. Hell, I've seen various people say they'd like an option to disable voice-acting entirely.
Voicelines, especially full sentences, tend to lose their novelty very quickly if they're common. Think F13's "Oh my god is that a dead body??" It just becomes cheesy at best, and grating at worst. Not to mention entirely meaningless beyond 'this trigger just happened'. Pinhead hit the sweet spot with regards to VL's, in that they make sense, they're very memorable, they're conditional, and they don't play every single time you do something, so they maintain a sense of novelty. Wesker has memorable lines, sure, but quite a few don't make sense in DbD's context.
As for Cage, he needs an "oomph" to his character, otherwise he's just a guy with very weird perks. He gets a pass because he's an actual, real life celebrity. Plus, only the player hears them.

You can’t make your other characters’ portraits red, but you can make Claudette’s portrait like the others. You can find that somewhere in the settings.

Mechanic? I assume you mean the hooked survivors having a hitbox, and not the mechanic of clicking m1 to attack?
Yes, there is a purpose. It means the killer has to actually hit the unhooking survivor, and the unhook survivor can use the hooked survivor as a shield block hit attempts... or more likely force the killer to move around to the same side as them to get a hit.
Especially important vs. characters such as Huntress
I think they’re talking about the killer hitting the survivor on hook for no real reason, aka kebabing.
Just BM, really. Also it gives them something to do when facecamping.
