My only advice really would be unselect and reselect. I got it no issues so unless the most recent update broke it all should be fine.

Show me one person in this post right now claiming it should’ve been left the way it was, c’mon I’m waiting. People are calling out BHVR for being hypocrites, why did they remove the noose offering for being associated with suicide and self-harm while keeping the guy that has been literally hanged to death ingame?
It makes zero sense, you either remove all noose and suicide related things in the game or none.

Was that hanging a voluntary willing excursion of that man or, given historical context and the ability to put 2 and 2 together, do you think that specific example was more of a public execution and more of a personal unaliving?

For every hook on a different hook they got, they got bonus BP. For every envelope opened, they got bonus BP. For every Lunar Offering accepted (as in, those little lanturns that spawn on the ground in totem spawns and make you faster), they got bonus BP. With a little bit of luck, playing to maximise Brutality, Deviousness, and Hunter, it's possible. Props to them tbh

The good news is we know what is specifically classed as a hostage situation based on previous comments from the Support Team and Community Managers.

Effectively, if one player is trapped and cannot do anything for an extended period of time, and there is no guarantee for the game to end, it is classed as a hostage situation.

If someone has been bodyblocked into a corner and they cannot escape from it for an extended period of time (the exact time frame we don't know, but assume that it's longer than 3 seconds and shorter than 3 days), and the Endgame Collapse has not yet started, it is a hostage situation. If someone has been trapped, but only trapped after the EGC has commenced, that is not a hostage situation because there is a definite end in sight.

This is why slugging until bleedout isn't a hostage situation. There is a definitive end for the game in 4 minutes time when the survivor bleeds out, and therefore it isn't a hostage situation.

Use these general rules and 9 times out of 10 you'll be able to guess BHVR's answer to if something is or is not holding the game hostage, but due to the nuance and Support's unwillingness to act without solid proof, you'll still need to supply video evidence rather than just a text account.

That you'd betray Pyramid Head for Artist... disgusting.

I see I'll have to reclaim my mantle as the Resident Forums Pyramid Main, because clearly others cannot be trusted with the title.

Dang Kuru, you have certainly changed your tune from when I was here last. I don't hate BHVR, I just dislike some of the decision making that goes on with the higher ups and the people who throw their weight around. I know that when posts like this get made some of the dev's take it personally. They just need to understand that when people complain about the dev's it's mostly nothing to do with them, it's with the management and the decision makers.

Call it character development

This is true as these assassins use their power all the time. I agree completely you need to make them speed 4.4

I wasn't saying that though.

I said I didn't think it would prevent the character being good, but I don't think it's a change that's needed right now. Sure you could try it but there's far more important things to devote resources to.

I have one: some people will suffer from motion sickness due to the FOV now being too wide, so instead of Shadowborn basekit we should just get an FOV slider that people can customise to ensure the most comfortable playing experience possible.

I don't hate the devs, I hate BHVR the company. Just because they're better than most doesn't make them good, and they still run on the 3 month content cycle that leaves no room for delays or errors because it's straight back into the next DLC leading to massively unfinished products that just never seem to get fixed, and when they do it takes months. I hate the greedy, money-grabbing tactics they've started to employ recently, especially FOMO. I hate that it's taken us 5 years to get back here when back in the day (I know, I sound old) before Starbreeze were bought out for publishing rights they were able to be incredibly transparent and had weekly dev streams.

I hate that we went backwards for so long. I hate how the entire 5th year went because of corporate silencing.

I don't hate the devs, they're actually lovely people who have a real passion for the game. I just hate the corporation they work for.

Look into Canada

Rather unfortunately there isn't a big government body that collects all of the relevant information and presents it neatly into a simple document so the data is rather scattered and outdated, but during the 80s and 90s hanging and firearms were almost joint for first place, and almost 90% of all suicides were from firearms, hanging, poisoning, gases, and jumping (in that order).

Meanwhile, a study conducted on all suicides between 1990 and 2005 found strangulation and suffocation (presumably via hanging) to be the biggest cause.

According to the Canadian Vital Statistics Death Database, hanging was the leading cause of suicide from 2000-2009, accounting for 44% of all suicides.

Information identified as archived is provided for reference, research or recordkeeping purposes. It is not subject to the Government of Canada Web Standards and has not been altered or updated since it was archived. Please "contact us" to request a format other than those available.

This was published in 2017, and there isn't a more recent version that I can find.

All I know for sure is after researching this I'm currently on a watch list.

I was going to leave this alone but since you brought it up......
Hanging oneself is a tactic, but according to this website, https://sprc.org/scope/means-suicide the top 3 are firearms, poisoning, and suffocation. Which across all age groups represent 87-93% of all suicides.
The noose hasn't been culturally relevant for close to a century in the USA.
Ultimately I find it odd that, an object so seldomly used for suicide, to be removed for that reason. Especially from a company based in a country who's government actively brags about the number of assisted suicides performed since legalizing the practice.

I feel like now would be an excellent time to point out that that data is exclusively for the United States of America, and more countries exist in the world and play dbd than the USA.

Edit: After all, if we look at the UK (as reported by the Office of National Statistics), hanging is the most common form of suicide, accounting for ~54. 2% of all suicides.

Let's keep this discussion civil, please. And while I am but a Community Moderator, I AM someone that adores the Twins (playing as, going against, and will become a Force Ghost on the hill that Victor NEEDS at least a hat!), and speaking as both and touching on something Mandy has brought up a few times before: please understand some bug fixes are a bit quicker/simpler to resolve than others, and that absolutely does not mean they have less priority (and of course, the bug fixing team is not the same as teams that work on other parts of the game, such as those that brought Maurice home <3 ).

Give Victor a pirate hat for the Twins' Rift cosmetics. Give him a little pig head for their Very Rare cosmetic (...that doesn't exist anymore), a groom's top hat for the wedding outfits, and also we just need a skin which turns Twins into some alien monstrosity and a horrific abomination comes crawling out of Charlotte.
