Punctuation, dear.

Should? Maybe, but not right now.
We’re still dealing with the aftermath of the two weeks DbD was free to claim on Epic. Going full-on f2p now would make the cheater issue significantly worse.
-
I don’t understand how WoO could possibly be the issue, and not the maps themselves.
Windows is solely telling you what you’ve got to work with. If that’s way too much stuff, that’s not WoO’s doing.

That'd be neat, sure.

They could solve this easily even by allowing text chat but they're afraid someone's feeling will get hurt by some banter or something and so the piss-baby mentality reigns
You do realise that typing on Consoles is substantially slower than on mouse 'n keyboard, right? Typing out "Claud, go save" on any console may already make for a missed struggle skillcheck.
-
Not sure how the fact that you got it twice warrants it getting a rework but okay.
Midwich itself isn't really an issue imo, it's just that specific killers that either absolutely wreck on it, or get wrecked themselves on it.
-
Unsure. Since today was most likely BHVR’s last day in office for the year, chances are that’ll go into January.
I think they are coming, though. At the very least, the knight himself is. Wouldn’t be so sure about the guards, but we’ll see.

You’ve already been spoiled damn. 5 legendaries from a single franchise, + alternates for every actual character.
It’s the single best treated license in the entire game.

I mean, as people already said, it exists for a very good reason. It does go way too far, and seems completely random, though.

Er... So just Dredge, and Project W?
To answer the question. If anything, I find that this year has been marked with a lot firsts, and with that a of indications of good things to come. More ambitious killers (admittedly with varying results), a revisited license, a manga/anime license, a meta overhaul the likes of which we've never seen before, accessibility changes, bots in custom games, the first time in well over 4 years that they've touched actual gen times...
David being revealed as the first LGTBQA+ survivor, forum updates, the newly announced action icons, more banging additions to the soundtrack, Light in the Fog...
Need I go on? Yes, they weren't all hits, and by golly we've still got a ways to go, but I am very much optimistic indeed.
oh and lest we forget, we have been blessed with the grace of the Rainbow Bird. which, in a weird way, has resulted in me becoming more excitable to actually interact with folks on here outside of the forums themselves. It's not quite relevant, but I thought it was worth mentioning.

Cheekily wondering whether we can get a pin for the holiday season.

I think it was intentional but it just wasn't communicated properly that it was.
Granted, the wording seems to imply that the scream no longer plays. It's just the notification bubble that's gone (from the og version, anyway)

It’s the sore winners that get to me from time to time.
”ez” has gained a more ironic connotation over time, but it’s still unnecessary to spam the chatbox with it.
-
I wouldn't say 25% of all matches is "rarely". One out of four? That would be absurdly many. But I have encountered them to a degree that I cannot say "never."

Nothing particularly new, just an enhanced version.

The fact alone that Nurse has a lower killrate than Sadako according to those same stats should tell you enough, tbh.

@GoodBoyKaru I didn’t know you had a sister.

As survivor, I’ve done it a whopping 2 times across all my time playing. One was them taking pity on me following 2 suicides, and the other was a farming game with 3 BPS.
As killer, my standard checklist for mercy applies. I tried it once, was not impressed by the results.

General respect would go a long way.
-
If I recall correctly, Valve explicitly doesn't want BHVR to make money off of their characters. Hence is why Bill himself was free, the other survivors' cosmetics were free, and Bill's only skin was on the free track of the rift, and is now the only store item you can buy with shards only.

Nah. I get accused of tunneling, even if I go out of my way to not tunnel. Or camp. Or slug.
6+ years into DBD, and I still get Survivors unhooking 3 seconds after I hook someone, then screaming I tunneled or camped. Some people just believe the Killer is supposed to play nice because 'something, something, what about my fun?'
If I hit the same person more than once a match; someone is going to scream that I tunneled. If I go back to an unhook alert and see only one person? You can bet your bloodpoints I'm 'tunneling' if I don't walk away.
If I hook someone and don't walk across the map; I camped.
If I down someone and see their friend hiding nearby? Or if I just look around before picking them up? I slugged.
People, as a whole, seem unable to reflect on their own actions in a non-biased way. And this ratchets up in a competitive game. As in: You compete against your opponent(s) to win.
'I lost' turns into 'They must have cheated' or 'They must have used <insert 'unfair' tactic here>'.
FPS Example: 'They only won because they used a sniper. Dirty, cheap snipers'. Or, for DBD 'They only won because <insert any perk/killer/tactic you don't like for either side here>. So crutch.'
Ok but my post really wasn’t that deep. Likewise, I also avoid tunnelling period, and camp only in the endgame. I have not been falsely accused of either in months. And even when I was, it was invariably the unhooker that made the claim, and not the freshly unhooked. Ie., stupidity. You will also not find me accusing anyone of either unless I saw it happen myself, consistently.
All I’m saying is that I was taken by surprise when it was the 2 nurses I faced this weekend that did not tunnel or camp. Especially after 2 insidious camping bubba’s, a hard-tunnelling & camping doc, a facecamping huntress, another tunnelling bubba, and even a tunnelling scratched mirror Myers.
You’ll find that I do not care for winning that much. I just want to play the damn game. That is all.
-
The amount of times someone is falsely accused of tunnelling is significantly smaller than the times a survivor is actually tunnelled, these days. Hell, I have more matches with hard tunnellers and campers than I have without.
I’m in the EU-West region, if that matters.

The secret agent image might be from the dev version of DbD and feature things that will never actually come to DbD.
Like it might be an older version of the Crow's Nest before it got released to DbD.
Not sure if you’re being serious, but in case you are, why would they tease action icons like this if they might be scrapped?

Reminder: this is the same guy that made the other recent questionable threads.

Anyone else notice how the obsession marker is different on Adam and is slightly there on Jeff? Does this mean some sort of half-obsession mechanic is coming? Also also, the fact that the player seems to be playing with bots maybe indicates that killer bots are coming soon too. @Mandy I am on to something here with both of these ideas or am i misleading myself 😆
It’s a chase indicator. No longer will only the obsession be the one indicated when in chase!

Can confirm it's changed. Not sure how to feel about this, to be honest.
Sidenote: when taking this picture, this was happening behind me:
They're stuck there.

People cry a lot about many things. There is no end to it. I have no problem with eruption either as survivor or killer. People are literally crying about a perk that can be completely outplayed by letting go of m1. Meanwhile survivors can just press E to extend a chase for at least the same length, if not longer on certain maps.
See, if you weren't being a tad of an arse about it, you'd actually have something here.
I just did this against a Nurse. That is to say, I let go of the gen immediately after I heard Nurse's whooshing, expecting an Eruption proc. It eventually proc'd, but I was able to finish the gen because I didn't get hit with the incapacitated effect. I alone was able to finish the gen, which powered the gates, and we got 3 out.
However, where it becomes unreliable is that there are plenty of killers that don't have a tell like this. Hell, only Nurse, Artist, PH, and maybe Hag actually have a tell like that. Only Nurse's is consistent, and that's not even mentioning how short of a tell most of those actually are.
Your "letting go for 2 seconds, then working 2 seconds", is okay in theory, but is also unreliable, because you just don't know when that teammate is going down. You could just as easily be hit in the 2 seconds you are working on it. You just don't know. Moreover, you're doubling the time needed to repair a gen, at which point the perk is granting the killer massive value anyway, despite the gen maybe not even having Eruption on it.
It is, quite simply, overtuned and too much to expect for solo's to handle.
-
What ^ said. Smack 'em within 5 seconds of coming out of the snowmen, preferably with the same lunge that made you pop out.

So, Good news I was actually able to get a seller to drop it to 12 dollars, bad news no skins or customizations for it :(. They should have at least left all the dress up in the game, IN CASE someone bought the dlc.
That would make BHVR money from the ST license, which is precisely what they cannot legally do.
-
Well, I would count the match as ended until the gate is open, and even then it ain't done 'till the match result is displayed.
That said, my matches are usually around 15 minutes.
-
So do you play survivor at all, or...
-
Orange glowing eyes like from back in the old days would be cool, but I otherwise fail to see the connection here.
-
I did see this happen, but they then always proceeded to keep vaulting ad finitum, even when I was just standing still on one side.
I have been clicked and tea-bagged, however.
-
What?
-
Forced to, no. But boy does it destroy the hard-counter to hit-‘n-run killers well.
-
The first cheater I ever encountered was invisible. A Tapp on Rotten Fields, doing a gen in my face and producing alerts beyond the map border halfway through the match. I think that was around Plague's release? probably a bit later.
-
Myers and Ghostface have inherent exposed hits if you use their powers well. Make Your Choice from Pig also helps, as does the newly added Hubris from the Knight.

It's 3 month cycles. the Knights PTB was early November so next PTB will likely be late Feb/Early March.
That's full chapter releases. PTBs would then be every 1,5 months. I'd say mid-late January.

Me reading this thread:
I know you probably mean officially, but-

Fogwise, Hyperfocus. basekit BT, giant meta overhaul, new killers to fight…
Dunno man, if the only thing you can get excited for is a busted perk, then you need to lower your standards.
-
They could never be stunned. They're slowed when phasing through pallets and windows, but they cannot be stunned.
-
Can confirm:
There's a cube-like collision field that's invisible, preventing players from travelling up those stairs. Unsure if the killer is affected as well.
-
Because that's quite a lot and they only have so much bandwidth.
Not to mention that "changing" them doesn't mean remotely the same thing for any of them.

I believe I'm at tier 72 right now. Shouldn't take much longer to get to 85.

none of his addons increase movement speed
That would be busted. Getting to Tier II removes the m/s penalty, and Tier III increases lunge and vault speed.

In tier 1? With add-ons? When stalking?
Gonna need more context here, chief.
