Spirit's power is that she operates on an "alternate plane" while phasing, right? So why can't we just make that "alternate plane" immune to the effects of Fog Vials?
I've made a specific point of passing along your concerns about how The Spirit's power interacts with Fog Vials 👍️

- When all remaining Survivors are hooked simultaneously, they will all skip to the sacrifice sequence.
Even on first Hook? Even with a Luck Offering or Slippery Meat or Up the Ante or Wicked or Deliverance? Was this the solution to people having to hang on Hook with no hope of rescue but unable to do anything because 3+ Survivors were still alive in the Trial and they didn't have a specific Perk or Offering? You just die?
Yes, this can occur while Survivors are on first hook if everyone ends up being hooked simultaneously. Players are able to use any available methods to unhook themselves (i.e. luck offerings and certain perks) before the final Survivor is hooked, though.

Hey folks. I really appreciate all of your feedback on the Fog Vial in here. We're actively collecting this feedback in order to bring it back to the team, so please know, it's being read.
As you get chances to encounter this item in the wild, please don't hesitate to share your in-game experiences here. Specifics about what feels good and what doesn't (like the note about The Spirit above!) are super helpful.

Thank you, I did do this. But…

Coming back to this thread to confirm that, yes, the team pushed a fix for this issue today, which lowers the required quests for these cumulative quests. As an important note, you'll likely need to play one match in order for these in-game quest values to update.

Is map repeat prevention still a thing? Since I dont know if you remember but when I posted my screenshot for the masquerade thingy, as we were doing it we got Gideon twice in a row, and then right after that we got one of the Autohavens back to back (I believe Wreckers or Blood Lodge, cant remember). We were all the same 5 people in all of these instances and still managed to get the same maps back to back
Map and realm repeat prevention is still very much active in the game, so what you're describing is something I could pass along to the team to look into. Out of interest, is this something that you submitted as a bug report?
-
I can confirm, nothing's changed in terms of the prioritization of certain maps. That's just the luck of the draw, for ya.

Hello folks! Coming back to this thread, if you're currently encountering an issue with Rift Pass Completion Quests not progressing, I would encourage you to reach out to our Support team. While the dev team is investigating this issue, I don't currently have a timeline to share for a fix.
For this reason, getting your ticket in with Support helps make sure your specific issue is noted on their end. Given they're expecting an increase in tickets, there may be delays in getting a response, but rest assured that they are being received.
Thank you so much for your patience!

I hate to ask for more details but is the yellow bottle activation timer remaining the same as it was on the PTB or has that been changed?
Thank you for taking the time to let us know about this stuff!
Yep, this will be remaining the same as it was on the PTB.
-
I can confirm that The Clown's purple bottles will have a stronger Hindered effect than they had on the PTB. This Hindered effect will be ever-so-slightly lower than it is on Live right now, and will be paired with a revert of the yellow bottle gas spread change to better strike a balance between the two bottle types.

I feel like this should have been clarified better in the QnA since just saying it “wasn’t a bug” not only confused alot of people on what you meant, it also made people think it was actively an intended mechanic Kankei could do, which honestly isn’t exactly great to think about when it comes to a killer like Kaneki who already has a massive hate group
While i’m glad it was clarified better I feel like it should have just been stated in the QNA to begin withI totally hear you on that. Topics like this can be a complicated kettle of fish. In this case, we could have used more nuance in the original message and it's something we've taken as a learning for the future.
So all that to say, truly, we appreciate the community raising their questions around this.

Same issue. I have done killer quests and it will progress during my match, (killed 15 survivors) but when I get to the main menu it gives me my rewards for the other quests but does not progress the count for the 48 rift pass quest. I am stuck at 47/48 quests completed when I have completed 58 Rift quests. I opened a ticket but they brushed me off and said my problem was resolved when it was not. Here is the screenshot I took the same day they said my issue was resolved.

I'm here to forward someone else's (@Lukadoosh) Twitter post on here:
"Hi @/deadbydaylight, on the recent Reddit Q&A you mentioned that The Ghoul "stopping you in place" while vaulting is not a bug. I want to ask properly here in case this was a miscommunication. For each of these scenarios, is the behavior shown intended? (1/2)
Video accompanying the tweet:
Don't normally ask for reposts but would appreciate if you could share this so we can get a response because there's a LOT of confusion coming from this (2/2)"
Thanks for taking the time to raise that here! Our team's seen the discussion and concerns from the community on this. We shared a little update in the AMA thread this morning to add some nuance to the topic, as our original message was a little abrupt and didn't get to the core of players' concerns. Lemme share that here.
Whilst yes, the commonly known "kidnap tech" is not a bug, it's a by-product of The Ghoul's ability, admittedly this interaction around a pallet is unintended. As Jeff has confirmed in the AMA, this friction point with The Ghoul's kit is something that's on our radar to be addressed.

Hello ThatRyanB ! Thanks for confirming the engine change ! I will certainly give you my feedback on the performance change that I could encounter in the live game ! :)
You're welcome! And speaking to those performance dips you're getting on Live, that feels odd to me so I'd love to flag this to the team so they can look into it.
If you have a chance (and have the Player Logs handy), it would be super helpful to share this as a bug report and include both a Player Log from your time on the PTB, as well as a Player Log from your time playing on Live.

Hopping in here as I can confirm that the larger-than-usual install size for the PTB was due to an update to the engine. I'd love to hear about your experiences with game performance (and any differences you feel) once this makes it to Live with the next update :)

Does that mean Phase 1 is done, or is the Hiding Prevention and "Go Next" Prevention, still being worked on?
The phases are a way of showing when we intend for different features and improvements to become available in the game. This doesn't mean, however, that we're necessarily "done" with any given feature from this list. We continue to collect feedback and bring it back to the team, so further adjustments can be considered should they be needed.
-
Popping in with a quick update that the team's investigation into this is still ongoing, but very much something they're looking into.
Out of interest so I can get them even more intel, for those of your encountering this, do you see your quest completion totals increase when you complete "gameplay" quests (i.e. sacrifice xx Survivors)? What about when you complete "quest progression" quests (i.e. complete xx quests)? I'd be interested to know if you're getting different results between these types of quests.

Hey there folks! I'm happy to share that Phase 2 of the Quality of Life updates is already underway, with pieces of the roadmap having been tested as part of the recent 9.1.0 PTB.

Popping in here to confirm that this will be adjusted alongside our next update (as those who played on the recent PTB can attest to). When there are only two Survivors left, letting two struggle skill checks pass without pressing anything while on hook will immediately skip to a sacrifice.

While we don't have any to share, add-on passes are certainly considered where appropriate. If there are any Killers you feel would benefit from this (and if so, don't hesitate to let me know why you think this), I'd be more than happy to note this down as feedback for the team!

@Marc_go_solo said:
Regarding the changes, the most intriguing isn't to do with the characters or perks: It's noted on the 9.1.0 update, killers and survivors (including outfits) are now classed as "Unlocked" rather than "Owned".
Is there something happening regarding one or more licenses which may result in them going?

Good catch! To put your mind at ease here, this is purely a wording change - nothing is changing aside from that. It's important that we comply with global laws, which can sometimes necessitate wording changes.

So when you hold the button to charge your Dream Snare, the bar should appear on your screen and it should start filling at the same time. Right now when you hold the button, the bar appears but there is like a 1 second delay before the bar actually starts filling.
So it should be: Hold button, charge meter of Dream Snare begins filling the second you hold it
Right now it is: Hold button, bar appears, but only starts filling a second after you hold the button.
His hand animation is also bugged; it should steadily go up as the bar fills however it now shoots up immediately like a rocket the second you start charging the power. Additionally, when you release the Dream Snare, Freddy's left hand teleports downwards for a frame or two before teleporting back upwards and completing the animation of him closing his fist and releasing the Dream Snare.
Appreciate your help on thisThanks for providing such an in-depth overview of this! I can make sure this is flagged to the team. Even better, if you play on PC and would happen to have a player log from a match where this has occurred, I can make sure it's passed along as well.

Definitely one of my favorite killers so far, and the skins are 10/10, but after having 4 add-ons adjusted and no other changes so far, what exactly is next? He recieved no update in the mid-chapter and after how Ghoul was handled, we knew it was going to take awhile before he received any sort of update. If I had to guess, it won't be until after the PTB goes live.
Springtrap falls solid in the B tier category. Many players agree that he isn't too strong, but also isn't too weak with fair counter play. Mostly. There is a fair few who aren't fond of his map pressure and uninhabited map teleport via his doors. Some find it difficult to properly react, even after the invisibility glitch being fixed. Its hard to say what exactly could or should be changed if at all. It'd certainly be disappointing if he received only minor changes, but it would aggravate a lot of people if he only got flat buffs. On top of that, it would feel extremely unnecessary if he got heavier than necessary nerfs.
So is Springtrap in a good state? And what exactly is the next step for him after being one of the most successful chapters in the game?
If you don't mind me turning your question back on you, now that you've had time to dig into his gameplay (I'm glad you're liking him!), is there anything you'd change about the Animatronic?

While I mostly agree here, and we certainly appreciate your openness to even have a PTB (seriously), we've been burned before on the PTB. Easy example was the slew of negative feedback that was provided about the original Made For This, and despite the amount of negative feedback, it still went live, and it took almost a year before your team got around to finally admitting it was problematic and balancing it. That was a year of hell for m1 killers with no chase powers - killers who are already the weakest in the game. PTB changes, despite the promises of "we'll keep an eye on it" has burned us many times before.
That being said, I do APPLAUD y'all coming up with a new item (the fog vial) to try to add to the basegame. While I feel the iri addon is very problematic, along with being able to stack their effects together, it's nice to get something "new" to add a new dynamic to the game.
I appreciate the openness on that and believe me, I can understand where feelings of concern around balance can stem from. While I can't always promise what an outcome will look like, you better believe we're here to make sure folks' feedback makes it back to the team.
And on that note, I can confirm that we've taken note of feedback around the iri add-on and stacking for the Fog Vial. Outside of those two points, how are you feeling about the item so far?

I'll be honest I'm kinda Losing my love for this game.
I'll still play it but I won't trust you guys with making the Game better for both sides
I promise you, there's no disrespect intended for Killers from our side. PTBs are intended to be a space where we present changes to the community to go hands-on with and share their feedback on. Just because something makes it to the PTB, doesn't mean that's the precise state it will then make it to the live game in.
We've been closely following community feedback on these 3 topics (among many more, of course), and have been sure to share this feedback with the team.
While I totally get that it can sometimes be frustrating to come face to face with changes that you don't vibe with, believe me, sharing constructive feedback on what does or doesn't feel good is immensely helpful to both us and the wider dev team, as it helps inform further balancing adjustments.
