You can also run Insidious or Monitor & Abuse on Myers.Raccoon said:If you ever notice someone using the new Borrowed Time, straight up camp them out of the game when you hook them.
You'll save way more time - As long as they're alive, any unhooks that take place in your TR will force you to complete a full chase (2 hits) again, regardless of who you opt to hit (Rescuer/Victim).
Since you have no Terror Radius, Borrowed Time won’t activate and you can down the unsafe hook faster. -
That may be so, but when it’s a game as poorly optimized as Dead by Daylight, even big rigs have a problem running it.Master said:@Unicorn said:
Fictionalname said:There's already an optimization patch it's called: Get a pc
Please stop posting ignorant things like this, not everyone is fortunate enough to pay $1000+ for a PC.
You dont need a battlestation to run DBD, its really not that expensive
-
Steam has also had 15 years to develop its service and gain market dominance.Master said:There is a reason why every gamer prefers the steam platform, its the only one thats working properly.
I admit, the battlenet platform is decent too, but steam is still a lot better.
While these other storefronts may not be up to par yet, given time they’ll be much larger contenders. -
I did, however that thread was exclusively about the Epic Games store and the potential return on investment for becoming an exclusive.Orion said:Didn't you already make a thread like this, or did someone else make the other one?
Just recently Discord announced changing their revenue split in response to the Epic Games store.
So I wanted to both share the good news, as well as ask whether Dead by Daylight will be coming to these stores. -
I completely agree and wanted to spread the good news.MandyTalk said:I like the fact that there is more competition in the market because I think it's healthy, one company should never have total control, it's healthier for the players if there is competition.
-
This is how it’s always been in the past and it shouldn’t be different now.se05239 said:Can players across different stores even play with each-other?
For instance Steam players can play with GoG players and vice versa. It’s all on the same platform after all. -
They made this change in the most recent patch.

Alright, thank you for the info.MandyTalk said:The optimisation pass is an ongoing process. The first step is the Unreal Engine Update - which was the main "patch" , from now, optimization will be an ongoing process.
This was the information given in the Dev Stream this week.
-
Yeah there are definitely concerns at the moment, so it’s not a store for everyone.Might_Oakk said:Saw this
However, it’s already caused another competitor to improve their business model, and that alone deserves some recognition.
So whether you like Steam, Epic Games, GoG, Discord, etc.. they’ll be forced to improve their policies bit by bit. -
Was this patch “the optimization patch” for console?RuneStarr said:According to this, it was due in December.
According to yesterdays Dev stream though?
We aren't getting one. It'll be a "pass" instead of "patch" and it started with the engine update (even though that made it worse for a bunch of people lol).Feeling like the redheaded stepchild over here in console land
If not is it still coming in December?

Works about half the time.suffering23 said:@ModernFable said:
It has been happening since the Spirit patch.i never had this issue? i am a killer main and no survivors complained after the game about it, and when i was using bt it always worked
-
It has been happening since the Spirit patch.
-
Nothing has changed about Generators.
Lighting has changed because of an update to the game engine.
And dedicated servers are coming summer 2019. -
Plus the new Lockers.The_Crusader said:Freddy is getting reworked anyway.
Besides, self-care and adrenaline hit freddy harder than any other killer. It's only fair that he gets to be stronger against a perk. -
This perk is great as it.
There are dozens of other perks that need way more help to just be useful. -
I really hope some big patch comes.rafajsp said:@AntiJelly said:
Is there going to be a separate patch coming out before the end of December as the "Optimization Patch"? I've been waiting a long time for it, since I play on console. Playing killer is nice and all, but playing killer with over 30 fps? That's NICE! Just wondering.EDIT: I do remember watching that one stream a couple weeks ago where they said it was coming in December, and I am SUPER ULTRA crossing my fingers that it gets here because the new engine made consoles even worse! (mostly on killer)
Forget it, they "pass" as they said on twitch.
"Pass not a Patch" said Mcote which means they passed on it cuz there is no term pass in development/gaming.
For the last 6 months the game has been broken on console, getting worse each patch. And every time someone brought it up they said “there’s gonna be a big optimization patch in December, be patient.”
Now we're being told that it’s not a “patch”, while given some vague information on the road ahead. -
If that’s what you want then you should aim to make PIPing harder then.DwightsLifeMatters said:
Okay, but doing a rank reset twice a months is easier to do than ur suggestion. We are waiting for 2 years for separate game modes for casuals, still nothing happened. I just want the noobs out of red ranks, nothing more or less right nowAntiJelly said:I personally think there should be a rank reset even less than now. There should be one every two months. The PROBLEM is that the ranking system sucks. It's because they don't have a casual mode, they have to make the "ranking" super easy, for the people who just play casually. There has to be a casual mode, then a ranked mode, then they need to make it harder to rank up.
Red Ranks are more indicative of play time than anything else right now.
Making Rank Reset every 2 months, while also making it harder to PIP, will more accurately put people in their skill zone and for a longer time. -
Yup, until he gets his ”Soon TM” Rework.Peasant said:I just realized something, lockers will block "all auras" correct? I wonder what effect this will have on our old friend Freddy Krueger.
I fear that the devs may be nerfing "scissor-hand Joe" once more.
-
And all the Blood Point Offerings could be removed in exchange for a naturally higher Blood Point gain.DwightsLifeMatters said:People use 99% of offerings to increase BP, doesn't really matter if 1% are hook offerings, mist or moris
At least for me it doesn't matter -
While being more effective would help solve the “filler” problem. It wouldn’t change the fact that Offerings themselves don’t add anything to the game.JammyJewels said:
You’ve stumped me in terms of their reason for remaining. But I suppose a discussion is to be had in asking if they should even really be around. Would more effective (spawn location altering, hook amount altering) types of offerings be a sound idea?Ryuhi said:@JammyJewels said:
Delfador said:@JammyJewels said:
They used to have more meaning or more effects on the match, but the drastic ones that added fog or a darker moonlight have been removed. Offerings are indeed quite useless in terms of affecting anything inside of the match, as no particular offering has killed nor saved me but what would they become if they were more involved in gameplay? Another issue of balance, that is what. And unfortunately they get enough hassle about that as it is.
Ebony mori changes everything tbh.
But they’ve implemented additional means of getting a Mori, like Rancor. Who’s not to say even the Mori offerings will go? Perhaps all Offerings will go but then what would replace the Bloodpoint boosting offerings?
Bloodpoint offerings are just filler in the blood web. breaking them down simply, the majority of them are 50% bonus to one category for 3k BP cost, 75% for 4k, and 100% for 5k. The most you can get in a category ingame is 8k. This means that:
Common offering caps at 4k bonus points (net gain of only 1k)
Uncommon offering caps at 6.5k points (net gain of 2.5k)
Rare offering caps at 8k (net gain of 3k)Now keep in mind this is based off of the MAXIMUM that can be earned in any of these categories, and you'll see how flawed the gains are with this system. On top of all of that, you can only use one at a time, so you will have to play X amount of games to even attempt to get your full return on investment.
Some of them like pudding/cake/streamers/etc are perfectly fine as it is, but all of the weaker ones do nothing but contribute to the grind.
-
A break, then hopefully in six months all the issues you just stated will be resolved.Unicorn said:
I don't think they're necessarily mad at a killer, I believe they're more so upset with the way the game is for survivors right now. No DC penalties, FPS issues, No dedicated servers, etc. But yes I agree with you, maybe they just need a break from the game.Nikkiwhat said:Oh ffs, you drone on and on about this...go play another game....to you, everything a Killer would do would apparently upset you. This is literally all I've seen you post about... -
I haven’t made any comment on camping in this discussion.purebalance said:@ModernFable said:
Here’s my suggestion:Play Killer for while.
It helps you understand how the Killer thinks as well as when they’re weak. Playing both sides considerably increases your understanding and ability as a player.
Other than that, you can watch videos and gain a better understanding that way. See what other players do, and learn from it: see what works and what doesn’t.
I play killer at rank 1. Camping is for people who are complete garbage.
The person said they were new, and they seemed to require some assistance. So I gave them a suggestion to help, that’s all. -

You can use add-ons and offerings.thekiller490490 said:Can you use add ons and offerings with the three perks?
I used add ons before and I didn't get it but I have seen others get the achievement with add-ons and an offering.
However, you can only use those 3 perks.
You cannot use a 4th perk of any kind. -

They’ve adjusted Totem spawns on several occasions at this point.
I just view it as an issue Behavior is incapable of solving. -
No, that was already nerfed in the patch.ReneAensland said:This is stupid.
So ######### like Amanda's Letter which is made to read Auras gets nerfed.
What the [BAD WORD].
Before, Survivor Auras were hidden while in Lockers, but the Survivor could still see Auras.
Now they’ve made it so neither the Killer or the Survivor can see Auras at all. -
This is a change I can get behind.
-
How so?Gamzello said:So we are gonna complain about offerings too? God how many L’s are we all taking!?!?!?!
Yeah some of the offerings suck. But it’s better than nothing in my opinion.
In what way exactly do Offerings benefit the game? -
Things like this are big contributors to my point.Ryuhi said:@JammyJewels said:

Most Offerings are filler in the Blood Web to create an artificial grind. And others such as the Moris create large shifts in balance when they are/aren’t present.
All Offerings serve to do is add unnecessary randomness and filler to the game. They do not provide any tangible benefit to the game as a whole.
As far as I can tell, the only reasons players want to keep Offerings in the game is personal attachment, rather than a logical defense. -
You wanna be invisible, play Claudette with dark clothing.
Otherwise, just pick someone with a look that you like. -
Any reasons to keep them?
Because they seem to only cause problems. -
Yeah, more of a joke build, but it is fun carrying someone halfway across the map to the basement.redsopine01 said:

It should tell you when you’re far enough away, like how Make Your Choice was changed.
I don’t think it needs a timer either.
The range indicator is more for quality of life and consistency anyway.
The perk is so niche, making it strong in the rare instance it activates would be fine.
Agitation, Iron Grasp, Mad Grit, and Territorial Imperative. -
Depends on who you ask.
If you’re really considering a purchase, watch some videos to get a feel for the character.
It'll help you make a much better decision than anything anyone here can say. -

Basement them with huntress hatchet on stairs and wait them out either they heal and lose by or go down from itRaccoon said:Personally, Deep Wounds is the least threatening status in the game and is way more unbalanced (heavily towards Survivor), than Enduring ever was.
You can only wait out Borrowed Time for basement hooks. -

Even if Behavior found that to be an issue, the new Borrowed Time arguably incentivizes tunneling even more.The_Crusader said:Killers kept camping and tunneling so I guess they had to buff it.
The rest of us suffer because of those few crappy killers. -
Hillbilly is an oddity since most Killers with powerful movement abilities have 110% speed or lower.The_Crusader said:
Maybe its hillbilly who needs adjusting thenBeanieEnthusiast said:
But the hillbilly has 115% movement speed, little to no stun on his chainsaw, and can move 3 times as fast while using his power, and can also easily instadown with it. So tell me, is it really too much? I don’t think so.The_Crusader said:115 would be too much. We've been over this.
115 and no stun is ridiculous.
That being said, I think Legion would be fine with 115% speed, the same way Wraith is. -
If it didn’t affect you or other players in the match, why does it matter?
They could have needed to leave and shutdown their computer in a hurry. Or wanted to hop on another game right away to cool off.
Now these examples may not apply in this instance, but whatever the case may be:
If it didn’t affect the you or other players in the match, why does it matter? -
Has it?
Edit: Looks like it -
Borrowed Time which originally encouraged attacking the unhooker doesn’t any more.
Before you’d hit the unhooked person and then be incentivized to switch to the unhooker because the other player will go down regardless or need to spend a fair bit of time Healing.
Now since they can get right back to work after shortly Mending, your better option is to tunnel.
It’s a much easier down and now you’re that much closer to killing off another player. -
HarshOnion44 said:I am terrified that the Mercy effect will occur where a buff is introduced, and its received so poorly that they are nerfed to the ground and abilities completely reworked in a way that isn’t that fun to play.
Oh I wouldn’t worry about that.
Behavior is very slow about reworking content
So while Legion may see some changes in the future, I highly doubt Behavior would go dedicate resources to reworking them.
-
Myers’ Terror Radius changes depending on his level of Evil Within.
EW1: 6m
EW2: 16m
EW3: 32m
Myers’ speed also changes
EW1: 105%
EW2/EW3: 115%
Edit: EW2/EW3
