    is it possible though? Stephen King is known for hating anything to do with video games, not that i wouldnt look forward to our favorite Clown

    the statements that Stephen King hates anything to with videogames isnt completely true. He has stated concerns about the graphical violence in games and other stuff but that could now be an outdated view of his..

    Btw he has given permission to use his quote for Alan Wake’s opening, so.. its at least something i guess.

  • i really doubt we will get him - but would be pleasently surprised if we ended up getting him. Pennywise and Jason are the last remaing ones that just objectively speaking have no other reason not to be in DbD other than Licensing issues.

    As for the animated video, i do think it is directly referencing Pennywise. But not to tease him as (Next) playable killer but to draw parallels between IT and the Entity, maybe even as a homage. There is no doubt that BHVR/the devs are fan of Stephen King, Pennywise has kind of an open invitation and it was very likely heavily influencing the creation of DbD Lore and the Entity itself.

  • I doubt there are plans for bringing them back.

    And they haven’t been completely removed but changed to some generic achievments. Probably not so easy to change them back again to paid character ones and would also bot feel right to again add them as new ones either

  • keep in mind that the Switch Hardware does objectively set you at a disadvantage.

    You have lower FPS, Performance in general, and depending in the setup also network issues (Ethernet or WLAN, Controller directly connected or wireless), then there is also Problem with controllers itself, as they tend to have some Input Delay compared to M&K and literally no settings for deadzones or response curves - some of these issues can be overcome on OC with steam but just not on the Switch itself.
    Some say there is also advantage as survivor on Controller as you can easier 360 and while thats true it also only really works against unexperienced Killers or those on Controller themselves getting screwed by autoaim and/or low turn sensitivity.

    So while you can play and get better on switch, there is just really a lower skill ceiling

  • i actually like the way the hints come in. Some Codes (which are meh at this point) but with some other things like the calendar, Short videos and then this animated video, that might or might not contain hints for the chapter, seemingly no leaks, and nothing confirmed or outright out of question.

    We also know when to expect new stuff and when to expect actual reveal due to the calender (either “stop peeking” thing on22nd or latest the ptb on 26th)


    its not on the same Level as All Kill per reveal teasers but better than usual for sure.. what are you even expecting other then Direct reveals?

    If it's an original chapter or a licensed chapter not big enough for 10th Anniversary then you better be prepared for a major ####storm.

    Thats a given regardless of how they reveal it…

    They could be using band aids, patches, wraps or w/e first aid stuff from their pockets or something. There are plenty of options that would make more sense than what we currently have.

    okay, gotta admit, survs just slapping band-aids on each other after getting mowed down by a chainsaw would be… something to see!

  • whoa! Thats a little too scary for a game like DbD don’t you think?

  • healing Animation may be a bit too complicated as it has to work from any angle and its not like it will make any more logical sense as to have one healing animation for chainsaw, bear trap and Hammer wounds..

    do you have something specific in mind here? Or any games you think did it better?

    I just tried dividing it by 13 and it gave me a decimal. The other numbers were divisible by 13, but this one isn't.

    Well you gotta try harder obvi. Its a code after all.

    Like.. if you multiply it by 13 first then the result is divisible by 13 and you get a number that is suspiciously close to the number in the first place!!!!11 /s


    I think we either have to have all the Numbers that are getting revealed one after another to even have a shot to decipher it. Or the numbers by itself arent even codes but just statistics from the games collective 10 years

  • just because the Community calls different mechanics ‘… tech’ doesnt mean they are all comparable and should be treated the same. Not intended mechanics and bugs should be acknowledged and then fixed, while intended mechanics (and even unintended ones that are later deemed good for Balance or just gameplay) should be acknowledged as such as well and probably ‘fixed’ as in coded intenionally in.

    So.. the actual Problem here is that communication doesnt really take place too well, so we don’t know if well known or recently discovered ‘techs’ are intentional or unintentional and fixing bugs is something that may take waaay too long (and thus the Community comes to think that these not acknowledged unintended features are actually wanted and then understandably react accordingly when something gets taken away they are accustomed to)

  • don’t create new Customer Service Tickets when your current one hasnt been finished. Otherwise you will be set to end of the queue again and wait even longer.

    I usually get automated responses to tell me that my request was received but will take some time to be looked at and then depending on what your issue is and how many tickets they currently have it may take 1 or even a few more weeks for the actual reply.


    @HexSlugged said:

    well emailing a customer service line is not how you apply for a job at any company. go to their job lising page on their main website

    I think this may be a language barrier thing and they don’t really want to apply for a job but want to ask for a human employee to respond to their ticket..

  • don’t you have the cheeto dust uhm legacy prestige skins for that? Well.. if you actually played and prestiged back then and werent unlucky to lose them due to no fault of your own of course.

    But seriously. No, no need for even more exclusive and for most just unavailable stuff.. it kinda promotes injecting or selling legacy accounts as well even more which cant be desirable for BHVR.

    these are cool ideas, but im pretty sure Stephen King doesnt want anything to do with DBD he made that clear about Pennywise

    did he directly say that or is that just the assumption because he usually doesnt do videogame licensing?

  • Eh. With that reasoning there shouldnt be any more killers - licensed or original - added amymore. The Community has complained about Killers feeling same-y for years now with the odd exception maybe..


    thing is, new killers hold this game alive and are needed and expected. And Jason is the one huge licensed one thats missing and has no reason not to be in as a standalone Killer. Outside of licensing reasons of course. And considering the huge amount of Media he has been in, there is actually am abundance of possibilities for interesting powers..

  • @TropesDaMan said:

    "keep your eyes open" sounds like slender to me, i even heard they were thinking of concepts for him, but thats just a rumour. If Jason ever came what do yall think he would be like? like power and what not? personally i want a camp crystal lake map as well

    https://forums.bhvr.com/dead-by-daylight/discussion/467222/some-kind-of-cypher-in-the-anniversary-announcement-post

    i would also hope that we got Jason and a Camp Crystal Lake map and that his mother is somehow utilized (eg how the Friday 13th asymm game had her)

    But.. isnt the license still split and for that to Happen they would need both license holders to agree? Which is pretty much not possible at all..

    June 14th is the day of the party in Montreal. Note that the day prior is also circled, which is Jason's birthday.

    well. Could still be a deliberate choice I guess but okay, the Party makes sense (honestly forgot about that taking place at all as its so irrelevant for me)

  • June 14th is circled red and all other Dates are yellow.
    And since this year that falls on a Sunday, its unlikely related to new announcements or anything like that.

    interestingly, June 14th 2013 was the Release of the original The Last of Us Game on PlayStation. And we have seen the dog in one of the dev streams that is speculated to be a hint for TLOU as well.

  • @Fenril said:

    Thanks for the answers, guys. I wish someone from Behavior could answer as well and help clarify, cause I've searched for a while and haven't found anything about it. Nevertheless, I have reported the streamer and his moderator for directed abuse and harassment towards me. I hope twitch takes the appropriate measures in this case. I had over 20 (out of 70) people accusing me, saying things like they wish I get banned for life, that I'm scum, that I deserve to go to hell and stuff like that. The others were silent or just calling me accomplice as well. It's frightening the power that a streamer has to influence his followers with misinformation. Crazy, really.

    you did everything right and obviously haven’t found such a statement from BHVR because it is utter nonsense.
    How would casual players know they arent ‘allowed’ to escape through the gate in such situations? Its not even possible for every survivor to actually notice that there is cheating going on. And something like this could also lead to players holding you hostage when you did nothing wrong.

    So, please, don’t worry, even if BHVR isnt responding directly, there is really no reason to let people like this make you feel so insecure. Good on you for reporting this behaviour as they likely will do this to others as well.

  • @100PercentBPMain said:

    do you have to loop on the left side over there?

    that would only be the London Servers, not the Frankfurt ones

  • announcing bug fixes for Future updates that are weeks ahead and announcing killswitches which are then also brought live immediatley are two different things though. So no, i do not remember them actually stating something is broken in an ongoing Event without actually providing a solution eg a killswitch or a bugfix bugfix patch (the latter was just done with the crouching speed btw)


    I cant provide a source that BHVR isnt considering tunneling and tea bagging toxic. Though it also doesnt actually matter if its deemed toxic or not. But the general ‘Features’ have been in-Game since the beginning, and they are directly deemed to not be reportable/bannable (see game rules). There have been attempts to make tunneling less appealing/effective and has been discussed by BHVR but never have they stated its something they wish to remove - which also just isnt possible otherwise a recently unhooked survivor would be invulnerable. Besides, ‘tunneling’ is also not even a properly defined term. Maybe someone else can provide you with a more satisfying answer..


    I want to hear promises of change. Dynamic change. 

    that I can relate to. But i don’t think there is am official Statement from BHVR out there and you cant expect a direct answer from BHVR here - at least from my experience. But you can of course try. Just remember that you are not the only member of the DbD community. And there are plenty of players/paying customers that will defend and fight for their tunneling and teabagging. And to some degree the basic functionalities are necessary.

  • … and you probably still have better ping/connection than half of the players on the EU Servers anyways bc they refuse to add more servers for other regions..

    @AlwaysInAGoodShape said:

    Why are the diamonds emitting light?

    possibly something behind them thats shiny

  • no, they usually don’t announce such bug fixes or reworks this far ahead anyways and especially when its currently still going. For actually major server outages/problems that affect many Players they may offer some bloodpoints…

    Also, teabagging and tunneling are always at an all time high according to some people. And its been made clear these are meant to stay and are not entirely considered toxic..

  • and now the examples with the stated ‘huge’ declines?

    All those have some Peak before going down probably related to new chapter/content release and looking at the overall line its not really a huge drop in player Count

    And it is in line with previous years, from November to beginning of January there has always been decline same with the time after anniversary event

    I would also expect an immediate Spike after 2v8 from all the returning players that just stopped bc of 2v8?

    Evertime there is a 2v8 event, the steamchart clearly shows a huge decrease in the number of players (go check). A game mode that hurt queue times so much for one part of the playerbase is not healthy.

    Outside of 2v8 the MM is way better yes.

    i could not see a huge decline that wasnt there at same times before 2v8 (there is always trend with player count going down in between chapters/new content)

    Though i haven’t checked every iteration of 2v8 as i couldnt find a Site that listed the dates


    but you already checked it - can you point it out for me please?

  • were there any killers not available to vote for outside of Legion and those that licenses are currently out (Myers, Pinhead)?

    I do wonder if Freddy would be even possible due to licensing

    Little Nightmares would be cool. I would prefer the Lady, i have seen suggestions with other bosses like the Hunter.
    for survivors i honestly only see Outfits for original survivors like Meg in a yellow raincoat and Jake with a paperbag over the head lmao.

  • i don’t think half the Player base are complaining though - but maybe i am wrong.. where did you get this number?

    Last i remember, surveys usually reveal that a majority of players want 2v8.


    but lets say it is half of the players: why would they completely stop 2v8 when its only a temporary mode to accomodate the other half of the Community?


    and is matchmaking working for you outside of 2v8? Do you actually get matched with players on your skill level??

  • imo Julian should have been added before Sable - Sable wasnt even mentioned once in Mikaelas lore and kinda came from nowhere, while Julian was an already in Lore established character. They could have mentioned Sable in his lore more and later released her then it wouldnt feel like it is now, where Sable feels like she was just created and pasted into Mikaelas life to make her more popular..


    I do hope he doesnt get dropped like some other storylines feel dropped (Haddies brother, the Pariahs, some tome characters that felt like they has huge potential) - though of course some characters feel like they should stay lore characters (like Benedict Baker)

  • it shouldnt be bannable as BHVR should just be able to killswitch the class to avoid exploitation.

    But at this point? Who knows.. Communications arent really at their best right now..

  • i mostly miss the horror aesthetik.

    Sure, the Visual upgrades are nice and models and textures look better. And gameplay-wise i get why they were stepping away from too much darkness as it was too easy for survivors to play stealthy without progressing the objective.

    But imo these issues are now resolved with how the afk crows work. There is no real Need for players to be able to see across the whole map from anywhere and also see the edges of the maps.

    Please bring back the original atmosphere, with the fog, horror aesthetic, lighting, this can work on Daylight maps as well.

  • the fear of getting downvotes shouldnt stop you from expressing your feedback but it is kind of understandable that it does, especially considering this community and presence of us vs them mentality not even just considering killer vs surv players

    I still also don’t really see the need for the downvote system as even highly upvoted posts may be ignored by the devs (see that optimization thread as am example) and its very obvious users use the downvote not only to disagree with a stated opinion or feedback but because of personal or other stupid reasons. Eg i see downvotes on my comments where i just answer a facts based question and i emphazise in the post its not my opinion but just the answer to the question..

    upvotes can be seen as agreement or thanks or something but they also may be used just because of personal sympathy for the user (though that usage doesnt correlate with unnecessary negativity)

    tldr downvotes just encourage negativity without actually contributing anything meaningful.

    A hidden MMR system is worthless to talk about. Convince me that the matchmaking in this game is anything but speed-based.

    Its funny because the devs themselves have confirmed some time after the introduction of this matchmaking system that MMR is pretty good at predicting the outcome of a match but the matchmaking itself prioritizes short lobby times over ‘fair’ mmr matching. And the longer the queue times the looser the mmr brackets…

    Definitley sounds like a competitive approach


    Considering this.. revealing that they will rework the System is also kind of a joke on itself..


    @DudelPuma said:

    Pretext: I actually dont want anything more to do with the forum where i do can be banned for my opinon. This will be the first and last time. Im only doing this bc the "arguments" people come up with here are simply ridiculous. xD

    Lets analyist it: what are the differences between a casual game and a competitive game?

    • competitive gaming: focuses on the main objective (winning, trying to outdo the opponent), there are in game balancing (something shouldnt be too strong or weak), penalties for leaving the game too early, matchmaking for fair conditions, etc...
    • Casual gaming: no Matchmaking, no penalties, no balancing (most of the time) just have fun is the main focus

    Looking at casual games, you can see that DBD used to be more casual. There was no disconnect penalty, perks and add-ons were broken, items, Mori was for death on hook, Nurse 5 blinks, etc. All of this is and will remain as it is because DBD is a casual game for having fun. But no, if it stays that way, those who shout "Casual Party Game" are the first to cry and want it nerfed-balanced, which is actually a competent mindset. I have never seen anyone in Mario Kart whine, "Devs please nerf the blue shell, its so unfair!" Nobody does it because it's a true casual game. You can leave the game without a penalty. Look, even in CS2 there's Competitive, Premier, and Casual modes. Premier is like Competitive, but like a tournament. If you leave either of them, you get a penalty. What about Casual mode? Nope, nothing. You can join and leave as you please, no penalty, because its for chilling, testing.

    i do have a competetive minset, but that is irrelevant. If DBD is truly a Casual-party game, then please stop trying to competently balance the game while simultaneously calling it a party game. That is hypocrisy at the best…

    Casual gaming: no Matchmaking, no penalties, no balancing (most of the time) just have fun is the main focus

    thats just wrong though? Most, if not almost all Multiplayer online games have some Kind of matchmaking with a hidden or not hidden ‘rating’, and they definitley have all some kind of balancing especially considering most arent even asymmetrical..


     I have never seen anyone in Mario Kart whine, "Devs please nerf the blue shell, its so unfair!" Nobody does it because it's a true casual game.

    ??? I am not really into the Community. At all. But isnt crying about the blue shell THE Mario Kart topic?!?


    also, DbD only really has a DC Penalty when Doing it multiple times within a short span of time, you literally can dc once or twice every few weeks and wouldnt even know there is a penalty system - so does that mean it is casual now? Or where do you actually draw the line?

  • so according to you a game is competitive when the following conditions are met:

    • there is cheaters
    • Players abuse/exploit broken features
    • The game features a hidden matchmaking rating that the game isnt actively trying to push to the Players

    so…

    Basically the way it works now is the progress bar color will change depending on the total action speed of all survivors doing the interaction, rather than only your own action speed as before. So working on a gen together with another survivor now will result in a yellow bar (as the total speed between both of you would be 1.7) rather than it being red like before (since your individual speed would be 0.85).

    yeah i get that part, which is easier to understand i guess. But it is also leaving out the Info that there is still some penalty as well? And what do the arrows mean and the movement mean?

    1. those that win the competition and are put into the free Track of the rift. Those are supposed to be only available free/with shards. The artists don’t get paid for these as the price of the competition is their Outfits being put into the game and BHVR are not allowed to earn money for these.
    2. BHVR selected outfits from Artists that are then part of the Artists of the Fog Collection. Those are pretty much licensed outfits just not from any Media but from ‚freelance‘ artists. Those Are only available via Auric cells as the Artists are getting paid for each sold item.
