You're absolutely right. I play the game. I don't profit from it. I would hope though they would want to keep me and "those kind of people" as not just fans but also customers. They promote inclusivity so I have no reason to believe were not welcome here.
If you are actually against inclusion and representation and just the thought of playing a character that might be revealed to be LGBTQ+ worries you that much then by all means, no. They don’t want you as fans nor customers. They have stated as much on their official twitter as well.
and if you are against it you shouldn’t really support this game to begin with.
and just to be clear, you were not describing people that don’t care about LGBTQ+ characters. You were describing people that are directly opposed to inclusivity.
The paradox of tolerance states that if a society is tolerant without limit, its ability to be tolerant is eventually seized or destroyed by the intolerant. Karl Popper described it as the seemingly paradoxical idea that in order to maintain a tolerant society, the society must retain the right to be intolerant of intolerance. -
So… you have a church in your neighborhood where they worship the Entity?

"Those kind of people" are part of this community too whether you like it or not. I stand by what I said in my previous reply.
Those kind of people don’t need to stay if they don’t like this.
And that’s not even only me saying this but even the devs.

For the sake of appeal I think it would be best for this to be the case. As of now, there are only some implications (Felix for example) and only one character's sexuality confirmed. DBD's player base is diverse, so they should be very careful how they handle this going forward. In David King's case, there were probably very many people who played him before who may not play him now just because his sexuality was revealed to be something that doesn't appeal to them. I've seen a lot of reactions to the reveal and from that alone I can tell there are players who now have no interest in playing David again. Now if David had been introduced in the game as a gay character we wouldn't even be talking about this today. He would have an established fandom and the risk of that loss of appeal wouldn't exist. If they reveal another current survivor to be gay, especially one that has been in the game for a long time, the same thing is going to happen again. More division in an already divided community over things like representation and sexualities of fictional characters.
For new survivors going forward this will be much less of a controversy (if any at all) if they are introduced into the game with these aspects of the character revealed from the get go. No one would have to worry about playing the character for years and find out something about them somewhere down the line that doesn't appeal to them anymore. This is why I have said before that it wasn't fair for people who played David King for this long to find out suddenly he is gay. Now it probably wasn't a problem for all of them but to many it was based on the reactions I saw. I know DBD's community consists of many people from the lgbt community but they aren't the only people who play this game. They also aren't the only people who this game can and does appeal to and with representation now being a focus area for DBD, I do worry for this game's future.
In David King's case, there were probably very many people who played him before who may not play him now just because his sexuality was revealed to be something that doesn't appeal to them.
those kind of people are the ones that shouldn’t be catered to and this really shouldn’t limit BHVR on how they write the lore for their characters. Otherwise it would actually go into the directions where people try to force them to do something they don’t want to.
Now if David had been introduced in the game as a gay character we wouldn't even be talking about this today.
not true at all. Just because you wouldn’t talk about it doesn’t mean others wouldn’t do. (And somehow I doubt you wouldn’t either).
If they reveal another current survivor to be gay, especially one that has been in the game for a long time, the same thing is going to happen again.
it’s already been confirmed by the devs we will see further LGBTQ+ additions both in existing and new characters. It don’t worry, there have also been heterosexual relationships added to existing characters. But I guess that was okay?
For new survivors going forward this will be much less of a controversy (if any at all)
it will just be different ‚arguments‘ against it, such as they are creating one-dimensional characters without any other character traits other than their sexuality. Regardless of the actual lore. Trust me. It will happen.
No one would have to worry about playing the character for years and find out something about them somewhere down the line that doesn't appeal to them anymore.
tome story’s are a thing for quite some time and they always add something new to existing characters. No one ever complained about any of that (except for Legion and Nurse I think). Also no one has to worry. It shouldn’t really matter what sexuality a fictional character has. You are just making good argumentations why we need more representation at this point.
I know DBD's community consists of many people from the lgbt community but they aren't the only people who play this game. They also aren't the only people who this game can and does appeal to and with representation now being a focus area for DBD, I do worry for this game's future.
non-lgbt people arent excluded or ignored at all though. And lgbt people are playing this game. And their is no focus on this area just because after multiple heterosexual relationships there is one character revealed to be gay while all the others are still left open. Also keep in mind that it’s very very uncommon for heterosexual people to ‚come out‘ or have a coming out experience where it would be needed to write a story about it.
seriously, sometimes you actually make it seem like you are a reasonable person and than you write a comment like this
people need to worry about if the character they are playing might turn out to be gay? -.-

WHAT?
okay. NOW is the time to boycott BHVR and DbD until they bring back Maurice!

From the Deep: Grab a Survivor hiding inside a locker 25 times in public matches.
not sure about that one tbh. Bubba might be a good idea, or just don’t think about it as there will be some survs trying to dodge basic attack/others powers with lockers as well..
Hiding Seeker: In a public match, end a chase against any Killer by hiding inside a locker 35 times.
Jepp, its pretty much ‚Quick and Quiet: The Achievement‘. Kinda weird we didn’t get an achievement that is related to Haddie and her perks/lore (eg Blind the killer x times)

This is a confirmed bug. No the heads are not supposed to be identical.

What platforms is Cross-Progression on? As of right now, cross-progression is between Steam, Stadia and Epic Games Store. Will I be able to transfer all my purchases to a different platform? For the most part yes, however Auric Cells and some virtual goods will not transfer due to licencing restrictions. Virtual Currency,…
leaving the link to the FAQ for others stumbling over this thread
Will the dredge skin appear in the Epic game?
Will the sadako character appear in the Epic game? If not, what if this was not a licensed character?
yes characters and (most) skins will be shared across the linked accounts.
The faq also talks about "exclusive content". What is exclusive content? what are some examples?
am actually not sure about this one, but there is for example a Trapper mask on the Nintendo Switch version that might be exclusive to that version? (Once Switch actually joins cross progression..)
If I have my accounts linked, are the rift levels shared or not? what about the challenges?
If I unlock a rift skin in one account, will it appear in the other account?
yes challenges and rift levels will be shared and cosmetics as well.
If I go from rift 0 to 70 while linked, and then unlink, which account keeps all the skins? or do they just vanish?
the account that gets unlinked will be reset to the state before the linking progress afaik. So if you unlink all accounts from your BHVR account the progress might get lost completely (or maybe you could get it again when you link a new account to the BHVR account -not sure about that)
If I make auric cell purchases while linked, and then unlink, the cells and purchases with them, will remain in the original platform account they were purchased in, right? (Says so in the before last section, but another one says "all progress and purchases will be set to the state it was before the merge"). Or will the real life money spent just vanish?
yes auric cells will stay platform specific as long as you purchased them on that platform. Though I am not sure about the auric cells you get back from the rift - those might be linked to the BHVR account and not the platform account.
Say one day I accidentally unlink one of the two platform accounts. Then I stop playing for the 60 days waiting period, and then link again. Will the state of both account be the same as if I never unlinked? I mean, newly linked accounts just take whatever progress the behaviour account has?
this i am not entirely sure about.
What if I link my account that has everything unlocked, with another fresh account with all the basic characters at level 0. Inmediatly after, I unlink both of them. With the last one to unlink being the fresh one, so all the behaviour account progress goes to it. Meanwhile my main account remains the same because no progress was made at all, with the linking duration of 10 minutes. But the fresh account now has a copy all my iridescent shards and all level 50 free characters.
So I just made free progress out of thin air? lol
no? Once you unlink your first account with all the progress that progress won’t be one the BHVR nor the fresh account. Once you unlink the fresh account after that, the fresh account would be at the state before the linking progress.

i just went to their comment history after reading this and. Well. I guess they are a bot.

I don't want to mention them tbh. Might encourage people to start campaigning about them again.
weird to mention something like that and then act like you don’t want to mention it..

Yet another? Which other cases have there been?

@CommandantCraky said:
I got the proof that this achievement is borken and if you got it you just cheated and claimed it with a hack
Yeah or maybe it’s a bug that doesn’t always come into play?

Pretty sure they have stated that those cosmetics will stay exclusive and won’t make its way to the shop (unlike rift cosmetics)
-
@Kira4Evr said:
They are making more awesome cosmetics for Feng. No time for Haddie
Omg finally!
i hope Nea, Kate and Dwight also get more outfits! Also so nice to see Felix and Mikaela also got something new!
-
What are you even trying to complain about?
if you have crossplay turned on you will also be matched with pc players obviously. If you don’t want that turn it off.
playing on pc doesn’t automatically make everyone stronger than on console.
-
they don’t announce sales beforehand like that I think.
but it is very unlikely the newest characters will go on sale so shortly after release. (Though they have done this with some cosmetics before I guess.. still don’t see it for characters)
-
It’s a known issue they have stated to investigate. So it might be fixed within the next bug fix patches - if they find the cause and can fix it in time. They can’t really give an ETA when they don’t know what to do. Their first attempt in fixing it wasn’t successful after all..

Had to google what flan means but well. Okay. (There is better desserts and pastries though?)

It was officially stated by BHVR. The entity can pull survivors in at any timeline though, so their age doesn't depend on the game or TV show/movie they originated from. A good example of this is Cheryl, she was taken a while after the games took place

I don't really care if you believe that so go off lol
Best example currently is Yoichi. I mean.. you really can’t argue he is the same age as in the source material..

It's tomorrow!?
Chapter release is today in 2 hours I think
-
I think chapter release is today and anniversary event is next week!
the dates were announced in the anniversary stream, here is a summary with a link to the video:
-
Well… I guess many chase musics saw some kind of minor changes from PTB to live (still think Pyramidheads PTB music was the best), so I guess it’s not unlikely.
-
Pretty sure that white auras are not affected as they are not affected for survs when they are blind.
on Freddy, I am not sure how/if his teleport was affected
-
-
Nightfall was confirmed to be bugged so in the live release the darkness should be more prominent and the glow of the killer should be reduced. We will have to wait and see how much and if it’s enough.
-
People think it’s a strat because the devs have confirmed it is intentional game design and part of the game.
it’s a strategy that can in some cases be smart and in many be countered by the survs or punished.
though the devs have also said they are looking into ways to get rid of facecamping (actual facecamping where the killer could deny any kind of unhook was already removed)
-
havent heard/read anything regarding this.
though if you were affected, you probably were already given a high amount of BP as compensation which you could have used to P3 again? Not sure how that was managed but I though that was the case..
-
The survivors came to the exit but couldn't get by as I was switching between Charlotte and Viktor.
it’s very weird how both of them didn’t kick Victor? There is a little cooldown after switching, isn’t there?
but yeah as others have said, this is not holding the game hostage and shouldn’t be ban-worthy. There is another exit and EGC made sure there was an end to the match no matter what.
-
I have read about both reasons: either hackers or so that you can’t immediately level up new characters to the max
both reasons seem a little outdated, especially with codes and challenge bp that you can actually store.
also these are Rookie Numbers.
(I really hope switch cross progression is still coming…)

@Phantom_ said:
Oh I meant here on the forum, my bad forgot to specify.
You gotta get in contact with one of the mods. Though it’s technically limited to only one name change per user, so after your first change it’s set in stone!
i have flagged your post for you so a mod should get directly in contact with you via private message!

It's Thursday, why not Tuesday as always?
Updates come (usually) on Tuesdays, though sometimes also other days. Rift levels open on Wednesdays and Events start and end often on Thursdays iirc.
in this case it could also be because the anniversary actually does fall on that day? Not sure about that though

You cannot link your PS4 account with any other accounts. Sony and Microsoft platforms are not supported in the cross Progression for Dead by Daylight.
you can read more on cross Progression here:

Haven’t seen this one. Seems like a visual bug, you can create a bug report here:
Report any bugs you find here.be as accurate as you can be when this happens (do you have it all the time during the match from the very beginning or only after starting an action? Only on specific matches/maps/perks equipped? Only surv or also killer? Etc)

This will be done some time after the survey's have been collated - this is the first time we've done something like this.
Is the survey over just now?
it was literally our 7th match in a row which we had to fill in and we can’t. I didn’t even note the number of bp for this match if it comes back…

Well I honestly have been lobbying them for changes that have to do with things like game security/updated anti-cheat. ive been harping them on twitter about it for a while now. This should be a no brainer and top priority. Have they even acknowledged rubberbanding? lol This has been a problem since before the Epic Store release(just now its even worse). I, personally, won't stay in games where there is blatant cheating(hook stage manipulation, hovering/warping one shot killers with no perks etc). I get at least 1 a day and I'm typically sitting with a DC penalty. This isn't a Me issue at this point, they're being selective of suggestions that will make them money. I understand that. Revenue = Updates. They haven't done well on Steam in the last year despite hefty sales. I can't say about other platforms, but they need to shift gears.
So, I really need a good reason to stay in a game where someone is manipulating the game server side, which can lead to issues since I don't use a VPN(I shouldn't have to pay for a VPN to play a game i already paid for, bc free ones don't do well with gaming bc of bandwidth limits). They can do all the perk changes, load us with 1000s of cosmetics.. but why play the game when there's an ongoing security issue?
I need something to distract me from the abundance of cheating, since I actually LIKE Dead by Daylight. I want to see it do better. Else I'll just reinstall CS:GO or TF after 10 years if im going to play with hackers all the time. Maybe I have bad luck? Dunno. But i'm going to keep giving BHVR ######### until they do something about it.
Easy Anticheat is a thirdparty anti cheat System that gets probably constantly updates. They also have addressed some anti chest measures in the dev update in January. Also a few weeks ago there has been a massive ban wave.
rubberbanding is an acknowledged issue that had a tentatively fix in the latest PTB (which wasn’t successful) - though we will have to wait and see if it will be fixed in the live update.
you don’t have to stay in matches with cheats, it’s actually one of the reasons why the disconnect button exists and why disconnecting starts with a very low penalty.
also, facing cheaters at least once a day seems like you are either very unlucky, are getting targeted specifically where matchmaking is also influenced by them or you may be exaggerating/calling out cheats where it’s actually other issues.
all that said: I agree cheating kinda got out of hand and they need to put in more focus on this.
edit: also thanks for acknowledging that you falsely accused me for the recent stuff and you didn’t just switch to something else to complain about, that shows character

None of that is recent. Recent is a year or newer.
They actually DON'T listen that much to their community. My post count might be in the 30s but ive been playing since you didn't even need to hook someone to use an Ebony Mori. Ive played over 3k hours and watched even more Fog Whisperer streams. Even they say that BHVR has their own prerogative and don't really listen to much.
Hatch/key changes came last october
Ghostface and Legion changed with Haddonfield rework were all part of the latest midchapter update as well as the LGBTQ+ inclusion as part of the tome, other notable killer changes were in the last midchapter update in 2021
the OoO change came on May 5th 2021, also not that much over a year ago.
i will admit DS change isn’t as recent. Though still not as long ago (patch 4.6.0)
they listen often and implement many of the community suggested stuff. The problem for you seems to be that they don’t solely implement everything that you want. The community is large and very diverse though. And listening doesn’t mean just doing anything that is being asked.

I always try to understand WHY people are against lgbt representation, or just the idea of representation in general when it comes up. When even people who identify as lgbt speak in an unsupportive way for it, I'm curious to know why. As for the "other side" as you mention, there really isn't much more for me to be opened minded about as far as understanding the context and perspective the argument is coming from when they're for example arguing from the context of division. The view on the matter in that case is already clear to me.
Some people are also just trolling and false flagging as well as internalized homophobia are actually pretty wide-spread. You don’t need to defend those people, they can do it themselves and by the latest reaction you should really be able to see what their intention was.

it’s about naming and shaming a certain twitter profile. Which is already against rules on its own. 🤷♂️

Perhaps. Its hard to talk about certain things that are brought up here all the time and keep the conversation within the forum rules. It was never my intent to do that, and I believe they understand that. I do appreciate how lenient they are with the conversations here. I believe so long as we remain peaceful with each other we can talk about many things and keep it within the forum rules.
Not perhaps. Definitely. And in those cases there were not other comments that lead to the deletion.
i have seen others being jailed/banned for more harmless stuff than what you commented.

Unfortunate. I would've rather it all stayed. I do remember a few... very unpleasant things said to me to say the least before in other conversations in the past that were thankfully deleted. Some threads even entirely gone. I trust the mods made the best decision in those situations even if it meant some of my replies being deleted. A lot of things I said was taken the wrong way. That is why I always say discernment is key to understanding.
Some of the stuff you said was directly against forum rules so it couldn’t stay.

I dont typically give suggestions up until recently, since bhvr didnt really act like the type of dev to listen since they dont really pay much attention to their fog whisperers as a whole.
The interaction with the killer is that once theyre found, the pet is incapacitated until the end of the trial.
They have listened often to their community though, and pretty much from the beginning.
STBFL was a perk pretty much suggested by someone from the community. Recent examples are OoO, DS, Hatch/key changes, LGBTQ+ inclusion, plenty of killer changes/buffs, I would even go so far as to say some of the new killer powers were inspired by community suggestions/concepts.
-
I still like my idea of a new survivor perk category with pets.
basically if you equip such a perk you will have a companion following you in the match run by a simple ui and giving an effect just like your regular perks. Eg a cat that can make distracting scratchmarks. To avoid performance issues etc you would need to limit these perks to one per surv probably.
also, they could introduce special cosmetics for these perks that would alter the color/pattern of these pets. And while at this, add cosmetics for killer powers as well. It’s time Victor gets his hat.

@GoodBoyKaru said:
I think that might be Victor exclusive bc I've never seen that on anyone else before.
I mean.. could be other powers as well, especially those that came after EGC which apparently weren’t being thought about during development/testing…

Depends which platforms those accounts are on.
you can link your Steam, Epic and Stadia accounts for cross progression which would lead to those accounts having the same progress. Though you can’t link to accounts on the same platform (eg two Steam accounts) like that.
-
For completely new players without map awareness this actually is not as easy and can be quite disorienting…
and I think it used to have greater impact on pallet spawns but was changed due to unfair setups etc.
