I have no PR3 anything, I don't even have all perks unlocked, deliberately, because many are ######### and the BP grind is already F2P levels of stupid and bad perks just makes RNG worse for the ones you actually want. I have over 400 hours in game.
-
Headphones, absolutely required (I hate them). Stridor, Nurse's Calling, Sloppy Butcher, Infectious Fright. You don't need gen perks you need tracking perks. You also need more patience and practice than a Buddhist monk willing to set themselves on fire to protest. It helps if you hate yourself, are in to CBT, sounding with razor wire, etc. If you thought DBD was buggy before, you ain't seen noth'n yet.

Survivor mains who complain about everything they hate being "boring" need to be removed and reworked. Grow a spine you lukewarm passive aggressive #########.

I think that people that use the word boring just havent figured out how to counter a killer yet. Its a word that says far more about them than the killer. I whoop freddy all the time. I also lose as him sometimes. Hes not unbeatable.
No, they use the word boring to avoid being confrontational in an attempt to hide their motives and make it sound like a well reasoned opinion and not just a knee jerk reaction to getting ######### on in their last match which would be, rightly, immediately dismissed as butt hurt.
-
These matches were not uncommon before either, both ridiculously hard and laughably easy. Making it easy just means they will get stomped harder next time. Right now, I see a variety, which is much better than just facing more and more sweaty squads as I got higher, maybe that will change it will be worse, I don't know yet.
If you want to farm BP or whatever that's your choice. As someone who got boosted massively during the anniversary event by "nice" people trying to farm on both sides, I knew it would be bad when it was over, and it was. Do what you want.

My question is, why have the devs done absolutely nothing in 4 years to try and help with it? You don't even have a functioning report system for crying out loud.
But they have, they actively encourage it. This is actually a pretty smart and well used marketing tactic. Red vs Blue, Coke vs Pepsi, Republican vs Democrat, etc. It creates an enemy for the other, an in group and out group, people are hard wired for this #########. It's why even though you can play both sides, and most people do, there are always "If you're an X main ... " posts.

I will tell you - I do some really stupid things sometimes while playing. Reading these I keep thinking - good lord I hope no one ever thinks the idiot things I sometimes do by accident are on purpose. I'm really simply not that good. Not modest either - truth. I will keep trying until I hopfully improve.
Example: and I'm sure my teammate thought from their POV it was on purpose but for my POV this is what happened.
Gen blew up. I can't recall if it was them or me. I think them but honestly don't recall. Killer of course came. She went one way, I went the other. Killer chased her. I stuck around close by as I thought she would run the killer away, I would jump back on the Gen and if she got hooked I would hopefully be close enough by to grab her off.
So I snuck over the window and went to the gen to begin working. Next thing I know, I hear them coming back - so I crawl over to the window ready / about to hop over and BOOM there is the killer chasing her. I vault over, slow of course as I'm crouched down, she follows at a run to the window and what do you think happened? She got whacked. From her POV I bet she is thinking "You idiot" from my POV I'm thinking "Why did you bring the killer back to the gen?" Really either POV is accurate. She may even think I did it on purpose as she cant read my mind.
Some like constant blowing up and such - you can tell are very obvious sandbagging - others are so POV it's hard.
I play solo and it's - kinda hard. blushes at least for me.
I really hope this DC penalty doesn't included crashes as this is the only game I sometimes crash in and it is a crash. I've done some trouble shooting with no successful result. The only one thing that did help it be less was changing a graphics card setting and ensuring it was updated.
It does, server can kick you and it will still count as a d/c. It's a pretty ######### system to be honest, and while I hate the D/Cers, I'd rather have them then a slap in the face for doing nothing.

Yeah your probably right lol. I'm a rank 11 Killer and most matches I have at least 2 red ranks and one purple / green so its pretty fair but lately I've been up against 1 red 3 brown.
I've also found that I have an unhealthy dependance on this to do any good lol:
https://us.v-cdn.net/6030815/uploads/51YJ6AHYZQVR/image.png
Going to have to force myself not to use it for a bit as they'll run out sooner or later.
I stopped using it recently and recommend not using. The location icon it shows isn't very accurate and it's much slower. It's really only good for avoid basements but you can angle up. Again, I'm not great, I go through hte floor constantly on like Gideon, it's annoying, but I've got much better at estimating time-to-hold distances by not using flannel. I still over shoot at a lot and people will often double back when they think you're going to blink so I think trying to land on top of them is best. Her FoV is ######### bad though and they can literally be touching you crouched and you wouldn't know.

I think the game lacks any long cosmetics for males that has physics applied to them.
Many female characters like Claudette, Meg, Feng and etc have them.
The only male character I can think of is Adam and that's just not enough.
I find trench coats, capes, shirt + waist pants and so many other clothes quite unique and I would love to see that ingame.
My personal hopes are:
- Jake (beggar-ish rags)
- Quentin (shirt-tied pants)
- Bill (military trench coat)
Game performance is ######### enough without extra fluff physics. No.

Game has more and more fps drops everytime I play. I used to fix this by disabling vsync, but apparently now you can't?
I get that we are probably gonna get one with the new graphics update, and I really hope they add actual graphical options like texture quality, lightning, bloom, ssao, etc and not something like we have right now with "Low, Medium, Ultra" and a literal slider for resolution
GameUserSettings.ini make a back up first just in case.
set
bUseVSync=True
to
bUseVSync=False
Thanks for the information, I did not know it was forcing vsync. I will see if this makes a difference.
EDIT: Dramatically increases GPU load, gives a few FPS, game still stutters and lags like a ######### though.
EDIT2: Getting 1500 FPS on the initial loading screen before the camp fire is comical.

It should be disabled. It's a broken map.
It is broken, not just balance. Just played a Nurse game, stuttering like crazy everywhere on the cusp of unplayable. IDK ######### happened it wasn't like this before.

I've definitely learned the most from Not Otzdarva's YT channel, so I would put him first, probably Fungoose and OhTofu would be tied for second. Scott Jund is interesting but, from what I've seen, isn't particularly instructive. I don't watch any streamers actual streams just their YT videos, partly because I can't play the game with a stream running, Twitch murders FPS, YT doesn't and I can pause it more easily and has no chat spam.

I also get rank 20 survivors. Trolling a bad killer can lead two ways. 1 they want to get better, and 2 they quit. I troll bad killers to try to get them to want to get better. Killer mains also try to troll survivor mains, you aren't all innocent. And while I'm talking about mains, I'm a killer main btw.
i often "main" whoever has the lower queue times or most Tome quests left to do. Not playing half the game makes no sense to me.
-
I run 0 totems in all of my builds because the placement is so bad like 90% of the time they will be gone often in the first minute of the game. Survivors frequently spawn directly on top of them, they're nearly always right out in the open, the glow can be seen from space, there are multiple perk counters, etc.
-
@Swimming_Bird said:
Are you sure it's just RNGesus though? Cause I just went through 10 or so more webs and still nothing. I hope this is a bug or something.
Not sure, because the game is so buggy in general, but blood web RNG is some of the worst ######### ever thanks to incessant BP grind requirements, low default gains, and it taking between 35-50k to fill out a web which is like double what you get from a GOOD game without boosts.

I wouldn't call the above survivor mains, they just don't care that you're leaving lol
They care enough to be #########, instead of, you know, not clicking the post or GASP having any form of empathy whatsoever. It's what I've come to expect from DBD though, and gaming "culture" in general these days (it wasn't always like this).
-
The prestige rank unlocking teachable perks across the other characters is a great idea, so it will never happen. I have over 400 hours at this point (much of it AFK and in queues) and am still always starving for BP, this is after playing literally every single day during the anniversary event (and after it, frankly,) and even taking a week vacation off work just to grind BP during it for max gains.
It's true that school is starting back, late, but I work K-12, school hasn't actually started in my district and won't for another week or so, but no one is actually in the schools (at least, they're not supposed to be, many staff are). It will effect drop off, but looking at prior years, it's pretty inconsistent, double digit drops in some, gains in others (at least for PC, which are the only stats I know of).
Allocating resources to one thing obviously negates their use elsewhere. I don't really have a problem with the aesthetics of the game, it's entirely in gameplay, bugginess (holy ######### the bugs, it's beta quality, no joke), etc. Having spent $200 in the store on top of the $85 for the game itself (all DLC), I'm not currently planning on spending any more. I want major fixes, I doubt they're forthcoming.

I mean I dont disagree that the game has gotten a lot of players through licenses but you dont get a stable player base with licenses only. You need fun/addictive gameplay with good/decent replayability. Otherwise those players will just leave after they dont find it fun anymore.
An ongoing analysis of Steam's player numbers, seeing what's been played the most.You can see a lot of churn. COVID has definitely given this a huge player windfall. Numbers are dropping, how far will they go? Devs seem focused on monetization (MOAR SKINZ) at the expense of stability/smooth gameplay/good player experience, with an ALL THE THINGS platform focus.
The mechanics, from BP perk grind to cash shop are F2P levels of bullshit. I personally bought and refunded the game in 2019 when I found P2P MM and only just came back to give it another chance during the anniversary event. There are some good ideas, some fun to be had, and a whole heap of ######### to hate too. Solo queue, currently R4 killer R8 survivor.

https://forum.deadbydaylight.com/en/discussion/180362/how-is-this-game-still-alive
Because in all honesty, it has zero competition. If a decent studio would come along and make a new asymmetrical horror game that didn't fall flat on its ass like Last Year and Friday the 13th did, BHVR would be in a heap of Deathgarden level of trouble.
Depends on what their licensing contracts are, i.e. could another studio even get anything in their game. This game exists because of the licenses. Without the iconic characters I doubt this would have 10% of the people playing that it does.
-
Geforce Experience exists and is supported. This is a stupid argument. The devs put basically no settings in the game but support 3rd party interactions that can do a hell of a lot more.

Trapper is fun when you can get a good basement set up with the overly altruistic, it's hilarious. Otherwise, guy-with-knife is extremely bad.
I like Freddy's playstyle but his dream world ######### destroys my FPS making it almost unplayable. Faking teleports to get people to run in to you, or cut them off in chase is good though.
Doctor just wants to make you laugh. Catching people in T3 cleanse attempts and people unfamiliar with his powers running from fake terror radius and red stain are also hilarious. I just wish he and Trapper and actual map pressure.
Myers gets the epic piano sting and I've had people comment about how scary he is to face - after they all escaped because he's just bad unfortunately.
Ghostface is the only one I've played against who has genuinely startled me and caught me off guard because even with Spine Chill you don't know where he's coming from. Unfortunately, playing as him, he also lacks map pressure, his mechanics are clunky AF (crouch sucks, just not as bad as Pig) harder to use but more effective than Myeres, I really wish Myers had his level of stealth. He does have one of, if not the best, Moris in the game though.
Pig, if head traps were effective, crouch weren't so slow, and ambush had a longer window, she might actually be passably good. Not holding my breath.
I have to say, it's not fun to play as any killer in any game where you don't feel like a threat at all and more like a bullied 5th grader.
-
No totem perks are viable, even NOED can be cleansed almost instantly after activating, and has the requirement that you've already basically lost the game. The trap ones aren't worth the perk slot, they don't do enough and are a one-and-done thing vs something else which is always active and useful.
-
Not to ######### on you, but with MM the way it is, I got multiple 4Ks with Nurse yesterday, I've been playing just over a month and rarely play her and am definitely not good. My rank went from 7 to 4 in the 2 or 3 days there has been a new MMR system.
Everything is in flux right now, there are also a lot more SWF rank 1 sweat squads. People have said it's supposed to balance out after a few games, that has not been my experience. It's much less consistent than before, but, unpopular opinion, it's better, even if marginally. I would rather face a variety of teams than the same ######### every game.

i know shes s tier but i surprisingly suck at her i go into phase and listen stop when i think their next to me go to swing and theyre like 10 feet away. I try to follow scratch marks and they just double back on them. And i just get looped at pallets and windows since im a 110%. Any advice?
I don't really play Spirit but I play a bit of Nurse. Headphones are absolutely required (basically for all killers but especially for these two, personally I have them but hate them and often just try to play without, but there is a massive difference between a stereo and stereo headphones as far as subtlety and direction goes).
Stridor (particularly if you have hearing issues or no headphones, even so it helps), Nurse's Calling + Sloppy Butcher, Infectious Fright, Discordance, etc are all good. Just like Nurse, you don't really need slow down perks, get tracking and/or M1 perks, you apply pressure by getting downs/hooks/injuries and make them support each other, bonus for basement hooks. Check out Not Otzdarva on YT, he has a 6 hour Killer build guide and about 4,000 more hours in the game than me.

Don't bother to prestige if you're not a completionist. You don't get anything special, other than cool boy points and bragging rights.
As of now, there is no benefit to prestige. Don't let the wiki fool you
You only get some bloody clothes, unless you're going to prestige claud to 3, then you become invisible.
Well, @Boss said someone did an experiment, so it seems the percentages are already very low for a 30% increase to result in all of 2% difference. I'm not sure how you would even notice that without very careful logging and math. I've been playing since I got the game in late June during the anniversary. My first week in the game I PR'd Bill 1 level and immediately regretted the loss of all my unlocked perks. I will say he's back at 50 and I didn't notice anything at all other than my shirt being dirtier.

@Boss said:
A test once concluded the chance increases are up to a max of 2%.
Of course, they may be higher, they may be lower, and it was just the one person.
But considering what people in general experience with their chances on the Bloodwebs, 2% doesn't sound too far off.
It's really not worth it at the moment unless you want that bloody stuff.
But hey, if they suddenly increase the chances of give other benefits to Prestige, if you do it now, you'll already have it by the time they add that.
Did BHVR say something about increasing payouts or other benefits?

@Quol said:
It's not worth it. The amount of BP you need to get P3 is so much you would be better off just using that BP to continue off the regular bloodweb if you want add ons.
P3 is only worth it if you want one of th cosmetics or if your swimming in useless BP.
Interesting point. It does seem to take about 1.5 mil to hit 50.
@EvilJoshy said:
Is it worth it, no. I notice zero difference. The cosmetics are meh. The reason I p3 someone is I don't want to regret my decision later. I'm worried if I lvl a killer I like to 50 but don't prestege them. I just pour more points into them to unlock everything. Then one day I decide I want that bloody cosmetic. All those points I poured into them just dug me a deeper hole. That's why I p3 a character I like so I don't have to worry about that ever happening. Sometimes it gives me a reason to try new perks that aren't meta because there is no alternative. I never used Pharmacy until I preteged my David. It was the only perk I had to healing so I ran it. Now I really enjoy it. I still switch it out for IS these days but sometimes I'll put it on and farm green medkits. So some matches I don't have to bring a healing perk, I can just bring a medkit.
This is something I considered as well. I don't want to dig deeper holes, but the consensus so far seems to point it to not being worth it at all. There are still perks I could unlock, on both sides, but they're bad ones. Sitting on 1 mil right now.
-
All female survivors can hide behind things the male ones can't and crouch lower to the ground, especially Feng/Meg/Claudette. Add in dark skin/hair and cosmetics and they're practically invisible for free. No perks or add-ons required. When I play survivor, Claudette is the go to, even though I'd rather play Bill or Ash, because it's so broken. I only solo queue and whatever advantage I can get as such, I'll use.
When I was going for anniversary crowns across all characters the advantages and disadvantages became very clear. Zarina was last on my survivor list and took forever because her default skin has a giant glowing "come kill me" sign on her hip in the form of a cellphone, and as a fairly new player, I don't have much else to work with.
There are also pronounced advantages based on injured/falling/breathing/etc noises. Some are much louder than others.

I’m on my way to reaching red rank killer however I’m faced with matches where I don’t get every kill. I watch streamers who are seemingly flawless at killer.

I've seen Otz lose as Nurse without a single kill. It definitely can and does happen, probably a lot more than it should.

Even if that is patched (they say it is, currently), the Last Second Switch still throws fair play out the window.
It's not, well, at least it wasn't like 2 weeks ago when I went to see if it was true. It takes 10 seconds to google how to do it and it's stupidly easy. There are cheats that do other things that have it integrated too. It's just dumb to put it in the log at all.

Especially when an SWF can literally just open a log file with text editor and find out who the killer is. Bad decisions on top of worse design.
