Not sure if anyone from the DBD team will see this or not but I just wanted to respond to this after seeing the update on Twitter, thank you BHVR for listening to the community about this. Can't wait to get my shards in October. It will be worth the wait.
I just got nudged back into the fog. Still not sure if that's a good thing or not 🙈🙉🙊
welcome back
What's the song again "you can check out any time you like, but you can never leave" :)

Have you booted the game on Xbox?
Were you also family sharing?

That's my bad, I used the wrong wording, I meant anyone with the knowledge like yourself or a fellow community manager/dev/admin that would have that knowledge. Not strictly moderators, my apologies. I used it as a catch all phrase.
Also, I understand the forums are busy and stuff, it just seemed like the cosmetic question was being asked in a lot of places but no one was responding to it so I think people, like myself, were just getting a bit worried. I appreciate any and all answers that have come in this thread though, so if my wording was rude or anything of that sort that's my mistake and was unintentional.
it wasn't taken as rude in the slightest, so please do not worry <3 just didn't want our mods to get any undue criticism of things outside of their control <3

I'm trying to figure out if the prestige levels will combine tbh. I have all the killers up to Xeno and a few survivors at P1 on Switch (I know, it's big stuff), and on PC I have about half the killers at P1 too. If I just get all the levels to P1 on everyone that's fine, but it would make me happy to grind a little less.
Prestige levels do not combine, it takes the highest level of prestige that you have.

I appreciate all the information, I'm just super confused as to why no moderator is discussing cosmetics/charms as part of cross progression… I'm beginning to wonder if cosmetics are being left out for some absurd reason. They have been very quiet about it and it's quite alarming.
To answer this, moderators of this forum are here to handle every day reports on the forum, keeping the forums organised etc. They do not have the information for the questions that you have. Just want to clear that up.
-
I definitely don't believe it's in the plan to remove this from The Unknown given that this is the main part of its power.
Whilst I understand the frustration that you feel when you are downed by a ranged attack, you can completely remove that ability by looking at the killer as it can only down you when you are weakened, and looking at the killer removes that.

Cross-Progression Release FAQ – Dead by Daylight
From the FAQ, you will need to log in and make sure the game is fully up to date and launched prior to syncing accounts.
-
the issue is with Xbox Live I'm afraid, so there's nothing that we can assist with.

you can follow for updates there, it explains why the game is not working on Xbox right now.

Thank you so much for answering my questions. I appreciate both you and Peanits taking the time to clear up some of the confusion we all have on these matters.
In response to the answer itself, though (and I'm not looking for an explanation or even a reply, I just want to share my feelings on this): Ouch. That's not great.
completely understandable <3

So, that means if I own three chapters—like THE SAW Chapter, Curtain Call, and Shattered Bloodline—on Switch and I also own those same three chapters on PlayStation and I sync the PlayStation and Switch accounts, I'll get a total of 4500 Iri Shards for the three chapters altogether.
Meanwhile, if the only chapter I own across both platforms is Curtain Call, I will still get the exact same sum of 4500 Iri Shards?
yes that is correct

Im trying understand what will happen with offerings and itens, because i asked via email and someone from BHVR said "the highest number" and another email said me " itens and offerings will be merged and combined . I would like know definetly what will happen, for example. If i have …
Nea (Steam) = 50 medkits
Nea (PS4) = 25 medkitsAfter sync i will have 50 medkits or 75? please BHVR clarify this, because in emails they just confuse me more than before i asked
I dont know if anything will be posted about other clarifications. would be nice if a Q&A on live or reddit only about crossprogression. This feature is huge and noone can have doubts.It would be the highest number, so the 50 medkits. They do not combine.

Thank you!
It's been stated that if the player owns DLC multiple times over, they receive 4500 iri shards. Is the 4500 iri shards a lump sum or is it for each DLC that's owned multiple times? If it is per DLC, is that per chapter or per character?
Also, if I sync up my Nintendo Switch with another platform account, see what didn't transfer, and then purchase the chapters that I already owned on Switch but don't own on the new platform, will I receive the 4500 iri shards? Or will I need to purchase any chapters bought on Switch on the new platform before syncing up? The FAQ makes it sound like it only occurs when the accounts are first synced, which is kind of (or very) inconvenient if it means checking each and every character owned on Switch to find out if they were purchased in the eShop or with shards or received via code to figure out what needs to be purchased on the new platform before syncing up, and it could easily lead to re-purchasing something that would've transferred.
the 4500 Iri Shards is a one off, no matter how many DLC's are included and it's for the whole DLC.
It would need to be done before the sync goes through not after. -

That's great to hear! Glad to know I was wrong. I'd really been wondering. I have a related question about what transfers that I was wondering if you could find out the answer to:
Will chapters received via giveaway codes transfer over? It's a full chapter, but it wasn't purchased, it was redeemed in the DbD in-game store (on Switch but not in the Nintendo eShop) with a code given away by Fog Whisperers.
can't say for certain, but from my understanding yes that should transfer over with cross-progression.

I would just like to know the thought process behind nerfing Billy but buffing Nurse...
Thats it.
Nurse received a buff due to the larger maps, she had very little map mobility with the increased map sizes
Hillbilly's one shot proved to be hugely strong in working with tandem with another killer, plus the team powers, hence that was adjusted.
There's been a lot of playtesting that has gone into this mode and we really want to emphasis that this is a fun, chaotic mode - less concerned with kills or escapes.
I'll also say, this is just the first iteration of this, if it goes well there will be more of them with further changes, extra maps etc
-
I'm sorry but as you have had your appeal already with our Player Support Team, they cannot assist you any further. Whilst I appreciate that your Steam account was compromised, it is the account holders responsibility to uphold the safety of their acount, there is nothing we can assist with in that matter.
-
Definitely not the case, killers will now be able to queue up together, we'll have "Kill with Friends" (that's just my wording for it not an official title) :)

What other perks did you have equipped please?

https://support.deadbydaylight.com/hc/en-us/articles/28143341034644-Cross-Progression-Release-FAQ There is an FAQ that went along with that image that gives more information.

I will say, anything that's a 3rd party unapproved tool, can trigger an EAC ban - if that happens we will NOT unban you. Emphasising that there because of the previous question. So it's very much at your own risk.

Are there any plans to enforce a DC penalty when the match is loading, so, for example, when a killer sees a bad map offering and quits before it even starts?
Is it technically possible?
During loading is when systems are under more stress, it's why we tend to not "punish" any issues at this time.

That's a shame. Could it be considered to apply to addons, as these kinds of addons are pretty ineffective as it stands?
of course we'll take the feedback to the design team, the decision is with them however.

This only applies to Stridor, not to any addons.

This video alredy has 2 and more existing cases of false banns and this is just one of the videos made. Appearantly on Reddit there even exists a whole bunch of Threads where players talk about the issiue. Saying it has only been 1 case is very untrue.
Or we say the whole bunch of people just lie? is that the message? a movement that is there to make a false picture against BHVR?
So you can see why someone without any reach and followers would be worried, right? Especcially when im seeing untrue statements being made.
And i still would like to know where is the diffrence between a handfull of people with epsilepsy and if it were a whole chunk of the playerbase? Its about health, it should not matter that mutch.As I said earlier, please do not listen to everything you hear on social media - that includes youtube. The player who was accidentally banned has been unbanned, we identified the error very early on and were working on rectifying it.
With the Trickster, it was definitely not something that affected the majority of the playerbase, not even a small portion. And with the initial one report that we had, that could well have been a graphical issue on the user side, which is why we can not remove something from the game for that reason - hence the social media request to players to contact our support team if they had been affected by the issue.

Screenshots are there, im not part of these communitys but i have filed tickets on my own before and the screenshots look very legitimate. Im a little bit confused why it makes a diffrence if its just a handfull of people or when it would be a big portion of the playerbase. Its still player health isnt it?
Also there are video proofs how cheaters themselves faked their HUD to look like big streamers, because the cheaters themselves make videos about this. Im not on any social media aside from youtube btw and the problem is that i cant logg in to see for myself if my account could be faked, because unlike big streamers i dont have a community to back me up, which appearantly is neccessary to even get a chance to attend banns. So im here for reasurrence and all im getting as an answer is that its basicly what.. A conspiracy by multiple diffrent youtube creators? Trying to make false statements against BHVR because… They are annoyed of x y reasons?
Like i cant see a world where long time DBD youtubers would profit from stating such things when they are not true.I cannot go into details, but I'm telling you no - nobody is banned because their account was faked by a cheater!

I don't think she's blaming the person who got banned… "user error" in this case would be the support agent that did the incorrect ban.
Also the next update is in like 4 days. That's likely how long it'll take for Trickster to return.
exactly!
And it is one person that has been banned this way, and the ban reversed. We don't discuss bans publicly but this one we fully acknowledged that a mistake was made on our end through user error (yes on our side). Please don't believe everything you see on social media.
With regards to Trickster reports, unfortunately we received reports of people reporting the original issue - not that they'd encountered it themselves. Which is why the number of reports is considered a small amount on our side, because the number of people who reported who'd had the issue was very small.
-
Cheaters cannot get innocent people banned. A person was banned through user error and that has all been reversed and sorted out - has absolutely nothing to do with a cheater.
The Trickster is currently disabled, due to a very small number of reports of flashing lights issue - he should return to the fog when the next Update goes live.
-
The DC penalty is not going to be removed. Bots are not there to help a person DC but to give some small help to those that are left behind in the trial. If you DC for any reason you are still ruining the game for the others left in the match and bots are just to help mitigate that a little.
And no, none of the above are okay or valid reasons to DC. If you are stuck in place in a trial due a bug, if you have an IRL emergency - those are valid reasons for which we have the "Leave Match" button. The first DC is kept short specifically for situations like that.
If you ready up in the lobby, you should be prepared to out the match to its conclusion.
(here endeth my sermon)

@BalanceAroundComms said:
They can nerf killer just as soon as booting the game with discord, ventrilo, teamchat, skype or any voice comms app immediately leads to an instant 30 day ban for cheating.
Using communication methods outside of the game, is not cheating! As per our game rules, we have SWF for a reason and fully expect players to be matching up on Discord etc to play with their friends.

As long as it's not whatever the hell they have going on in DBD Mobile 😭
fortunately we don't have plans to add emotes, so you do not need to worry!
-
Will clear up a few things between "modifiers" and "modes" - modifiers are very similar to the base game with just some smaller changes, so there's still 4 survivors, 1 killer and generators to repair. Modes are bigger changes which can change the way the game is played - it does not mean one is permanent and one is not.
The mode won't be permanent - the start and end dates are on the roadmap. There will be further iterations based on feedback, more killers added to the rosta etc.

in fairness, I didn't have to google as I am aware of the information, so that saved time lol

…and why is literally any other games have no such restriction within in game currency
I don't really understand, I heard a speculation about BHVR is misunderstanding cryptocurrency law and in game currency law or something, I wishes for another internal review about that law or something
please refer to what Emeal linked, it shows the other games that have to abide by this law. There is nothing we can do on the matter - it's Japanese law.
-
Unfortunately there is nothing we're able to do about this, the laws in Japan are very strict with regards to virtual currency and the expiration date of the Auric Cells in that region is in-line with those laws.

It is just normal games, you do not need to do anything specific.

I think this is a great idea, and a great community event - so most definitely allowed to post here, don't worry about that! Looking forward to seeing what ideas everyone comes up with <3
-
Whilst I'm not against using a graph form, the reason we don't is that it's not readable on all platforms - it would look so squished and unreadable on Instagram for example.
It would also look immensely busy even full sized and be hard to read for a lot of people. It's why we choose which assets to present things with carefully, as we have to consider how it looks to the majority of the community on the platforms they choose.

Also, there's no way to complain about moderators in any form here in the whole forum if you've been wronged.

Yeah, those stats that have no evidence to back them up, that basically just say "the game is balanced and the devs are doing a pretty good job so far", the stats that don't align with actual experience of any killer player, sure, those stats are an argument.
Pretty much impossible to back up stats with facts as the stats are the facts themselves. I'm sorry if the Stats do not represent your personal experiences playing DbD, however please do not infer that we would make the statistics up.

That window was removed for a reason, it made for an insanely strong loop that was virtually impossible to catch a survivor at, even with bloodlust. So it was removed deliberately and will not be returned.

@Batusalen said:
The main reason why SoloQ is in that state is because of survivors themselves. Not matchmaking, not balancing, not how killers play, just themselves.
Average survivors with low game sense (specially not making the right decision at the right time) and not playing as a team (including bringing perks that only benefit them and not even help progressing the true objective, that is doing gens) is what make most SoloQ games a true hell to play. Then, instead of trying to get and do better, they complain about the "40% average escape rate" and how the game is killer sided without understanding what an average means or that they are most likely in the lower half of it.
Coincidentally, Hens just uploaded a video today about the topic:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Je3AQGuG2C8&ab_channel=Hens
Who would have thought that if you are good at the game, have good game sense, and try to play as a team (which is the main strength of survivors, being 4 vs 1) would make you and your team mates win more games even in SoloQ?
This is an interesting video, thank you for highlighting it here, I did see most of this Live. One thing that I think it's good to highlight, is this is not a personal score, but a team one. Hens often died himself to get his team mates out.

Singularity is very complex to play, there's a lot of macro gaming that's required to be successful with it.
Also there's a lot of frustration around various parts of his kit, aiming etc. And we're looking to address these with this update.
Whilst a top line Singularity is of course pretty strong, very few players are at that level with it, and making the character more accessible to all players is the desired outcome here.

@Junylar said:
Well, since Otz already made a video on this complaining about the perk and calling for its nerf, it's now a matter of time before it gets nerfed to the ground.
I'll jump in here and say, if we change a perk it's because we feel that it needs changing - one person does not have the power over changes. We listen to feedback from all parts of the community.
Please stop blaming Otz for game changes that you don't personally like, the man is a content creator, and a very good one. He creates content and gives feedback on the game, however that doesn't mean that his feedback is listened to above everyone else - we listen and read pretty much everything.
