  • Nevermind on the new/new comment section. That wasn't appearing when I posted this but after I hit post I saw it's now a thing. 😁

  • I wish they'd work atleast a 3rd hot fix into their schedule. It's just a long time between the second hotfix and next patch, especially when they break things in hotfix #1 or 2. Also it feels like whenever a patch includes the stuff for an event (like hotfix #2 this time) it just breaks a bunch of stuff. Kind of worried what will be broken when they activate the event.

    I will be updating Avatars - will be removing a lot as well as we are running out of space for everything. It also needs to be sustainable long term, each chapter with at least two characters, at least 6 perks and each one of these avatars have to be created.

    I may drop the perk avatars completely, have all the characters that I can, plus have some charm ones in there. It's something I'm hopefully going to have completed by the end of next week, but as you see in the screenshot we have some people away at the moment so I don't fully have the time to complete everything on this, would have liked to have had them ready for the forum upgrade but that wasn't feasible. I'm hopeful by the end of next week they will be ready, that's my target date at least.

    Thanks for the update Mandy. Pretty excited to see the new options. 😁

  • Since my profile pic is the DBD logo I thought it was just part of the header. 😂

    Please add charm profile pics soon so I can have different neutral side pic. 😂

    on android, click on your profile pic - you will see the message notification, plus the bell icon there for forum notifications...with a gap between them so you can click easily

    Should I have a visible profile pic in a specific spot on the forums that isn't from a comment/post I made? Or would I need to go to one to access my profile to see notifications?

    I tested on Android and another wonderful CM helping me tested on iphone - they both worked, so I'm hoping you find it ok.

    Where are the notifications? 😂 I'm on Android using Chrome and I don't see them anywhere like I did before. I only saw GoodBoyKaru quoted me because it popped up while I was looking at a different post.

  • DC penalty is definitely back on. They had only turned it off for playstation because of the cursor error but that was fixed in yesterday's patch so DC penalty is back on.

    As for matchmaking - I feel like people are just trying to sabotage their teams on purpose. Not even a skill issue, just a make game unfun for others.

  • It feels weird. 😂 Maybe it's because I'm on mobile.

    Can't wait for new forum pics that are charms to be added like a certain pretty birdy or Maurice charm we currently have in game.

    Also thank you to dbd forums Twitter for sharing the new link, was wondering why when I refreshed forums page it was still down.

  • Because there are players that use filters to brighten the game anyway so may as well make it bright for everyone.

  • It's in today's patch notes, they broke Kindred.

  • I'd rather they replace incapacitation with entity blocking the gen. It's not fun not being able to do any interactions for 25 seconds.

  • My SWF teammate for about a month now will randomly get kicked from our match. Can see the killers load out even though the match is still going on. Never gets a DC penalty when it happens. Happened last night as I was opening the exit, he was standing next to me and would've escaped but he was kicked a second before I finished opening it.

  • Not working on survivor side. It's fluctuated between 50% and 100% but haven't received any extra BP.

  • Midwich just needs to be kill switched until they rework it or something. I feel like the hook and gen rng are constantly having issues and then there's the fun occasional uncleansable totem thrown into the mix.

  • @Seraphor said:

    It doesn't need to be nerfed, it needs to be reworked so that it doesn't completely screw solo survivors while having virtually no effect on SWF.

    Surely every killer main wants their perks to be effective against SWF?

    If it blocked gens instead of inflicting incapacitated, it would be just as effective against SWF as it is against solos, without suffering any kind of nerf. It would actually be a buff.

    This, just trade out the incapacitation for entity blocking the gen. It wouldn't get as many complaints if players could actually do something else after getting kicked off a gen.

  • The ones that run aura perks to see teammates only to sandbag instead of helping. They hide/avoid doing anything entire match because they want as little interaction as possible with the killer. If they get into chase with killer they run the killer directly at a teammate, usually one working on a gen or one that's healing - if you're on death hook and they haven't been hooked once you can guarantee they will run straight at you hoping killer decides to kill you instead of hooking them once. If a teammate is on hook the only time they will unhook is while being chased by the killer because they are hoping the killer will go after the recently unhooked instead.

  • They should put all past rift, prime, and event (and any other "exclusive" they may think of) cosmetics in the store.

    I'm a Zarina main, I'd like the several rift and event only cosmetics I earned to all be in the store with no time limitation so she has more cosmetic options available to everyone all the time. More cosmetic options means more people are likely to play her so she may get more unique cosmetics a year instead of the 1 or 2 she gets now.

  • @ohheyitsbobcat said:

    I'm more confused on why people are revolting now when FOMO has been a major thing with the Prime skins and Rift Charms/Skins since they started? Like, why was this the final straw? Holiday skins you never see anyone wearing anyway unless it's the holiday? Is it not the skins themselves but the idea of FOMO being bad? Then why is no one outraging about everything else FOMO related and only about these skins? Would people really be okay with everything else if the skins simply stayed? Was our FOMO levels at the tip of the glass before this little stunt spilled over a little? I doubt it.

    It honestly feels more like Mob mentality rather then genuine concern which you see on the forums now and again. The people who hated FOMO from the very start have suddenly gained traction behind a Mob and I feel like nothing is going to change and those same few people will be left alone again when everyone inevitably stops caring which is incredibly sad.

    For the record, I don't care all that much about the skins or any of this FOMO business because it doesn't effect me. I do think it's a dumb decision to time-lock the skins though since it will upset people. What really gets me is all the bandwagon people that suddenly have a problem when there was none before. It's like if a small protest group that's been active for years suddenly gets news coverage and now their group of 10 is suddenly in the 100's. Then a week or so goes by and that group is down to 13 because hardly anyone cared, people just wanted to be involved in the new hip thing.

    I hope something comes from all this outrage because I don't like time-locked stuff and everything else even if it doesn't really effect me but I have a feeling this will all die out once people realize they don't actually care that much. I do hope I'm wrong though.

    When the rift was first announced the devs said you could either earn them for free via game play in the rift or you could buy them 6 months later in the store. After the first rift when it hit the 6 month mark players were asking "where are the rift cosmetics?" Players still ask when rift cosmetics are going to the shop. There HAS been complaints about rift cosmetics, especially the charms, becoming exclusive because of BHVR saying "no more exclusives."

    Prime is one people have been complaining about from the start because of BHVR saying they would no longer do exclusives. Prime has also been complained about because of it costing money and forcing players to use a third party to get whatever the reward is in game.

    People are being louder now for multiple reasons. They have been complaining for awhile now about there still be exclusives after BHVR said no more exclusives and this is just adding to that - they've been consistently complaining quietly and that didn't work so now they're being louder. FOMO marketing tactics are anti-consumer and they don't want to see it in a game they care about - also expect better from BHVR who in the past had avoided being yet another anti-consumer game company. BHVR JUST made an announcement in September about making cosmetics available for shards after 4 weeks only to go back on that already by saying that time limited cosmetics are exempt. The skins they are removing aren't just holiday skins but ones that were released in the winter - they are extremely generic and can be worn year round. A decent portion of the cosmetics being removed to make time limited also currently cost shards and BHVR is refusing to confirm if they will be available for shards when they come back or if they will be auric cell only going forward. There's also a portion of the cosmetics for characters that already have limited cosmetic options and are rarely played - it doesn't help the vicious circle of BHVR rarely releasing cosmetics for these characters because they aren't played as much but their low play rate is because they barely have any cosmetic options.

  • @UnknownKiller said:

    If the fomo tactic goes well next step is gonna be take it now or its gonna leave forever.

    After that will be FOMO survivors/killers. Finally get Friday the 13th chapter but you only have a week to buy it before its removed from store forever....

  • Myers can pull the survivor out of the locker and hook them.

  • I voted for the other group. The Kate, Meg, and Trickster all looked better in that group plus there was Billy, Adam, and Yun Jin in that group. Wasn't a fan of any of the cosmetics in the group that won.

    funny people bring up frozen Pumpkin coffee or peppermint mocha whatever but most starbucks I been to if they have pepper mint or ingredients they make it for you.

    I remember they was a starbuck halloween coffee drink remember it was white mocha with raspberry dizzle they made it for me just fine tho the drink was long gone.

    so stop using seasonal drink...😂

    This, 100% this. I've never had trouble getting a seasonal flavor outside the season its from.

    Sometimes that's ok, but I have a different take. A lot of times, I do not like having things whenever I want. There's a reason why I like eating turkey, gravy, mashed potatoes and stuffing during Thanksgiving-- why I like seeing Christmas lights on houses up and down the block during December-- why I give my baby girl a big egg full of apple Jolly Ranchers every Easter. It makes things special. I like special.

    In this case-- these cosmetics -- I like having them available during a certain time because it gives them worth. I had no reason to get a whole lot of cosmetics before because I could usually get them at any time. After looking up what was leaving for a year, I had to dish out a bunch of shards to get Claudette's sweater, Dwight's gift box and jingly jester pants. Now they're special to me because I made an effort to get them before they were gone. I still want other #########, like Claudette's Christmas hat, but that's just the way it is. Maybe it will give me some purpose to play more to earn it. I like that.

    I've had completely different experience. Thanksgiving turkey was always the worst turkey dinner of the year, thankfully my parents did turkey dinners outside holidays and random times during the year that were amazing. I hated as a kid getting specific candies only at certain times of the year, to the point I asked my parents to stop. I'd end out having to throw the candy out because I wanted to spread it out and have it later in the year but it'd go bad.

    I don't like any cosmetics being exclusive. I've gotten all the rift and Amazon prime cosmetics as well as all the earnable event cosmetics since I started playing. They don't feel special to me because I got them during a limited time. I'd much rather they all be put into the store permanently so they are available to everyone at any time. I'd feel special seeing more cosmetics permanently added to the store for my main, Zarina, but unfortunately since she doesn't have many cosmetics she's isn't a go to for people to play and her not being played is why the devs don't give her cosmetics. She has 3 rift cosmetics that I wish they'd permanently put in the store to give players that missed out more options to encourage them to play her so she could get more cosmetics but instead of adding cosmetics to the store permanently for her she is one that is having a cosmetic removed thanks to the new "winter cosmetics are time limited" that BHVR has decided to do.

  • When I was a kid apple cider was only available in the fall, now I see it in stores year round because people like drinking apple cider year round. Quite a few of the smaller dairy farms in my area sell egg nog year round because people will buy it outside the Christmas season. Theres a local mom/pop ice cream shop that changes up their ice cream weekly and atleast once a month offers eggnog hard ice cream or soft serve - getting their version of a DQ blizzard using the eggnog soft serve and their fresh brownies is wicked tasty.

    It's great when you aren't limited to one time of year to enjoy things and you are free to enjoy them anytime instead.

  • @Seraphor said:

    By all means let them know, but do we need to have 100 topics a day about this?

    Jesus Christ, they're just cosmetics, all this fuss about them just proves how much of a commodity they are, and how lucrative it is to charge money for them.

    If this forum is anything to go buy, BHVR aren't in the business of developing games, they just produce fancy 3D artwork that the masses go crazy over and will pay a high price for.

    The more you complain about them costing money, the more you convince BHVR that they should be charging money for them!

    Just don't buy them. I'm not.

    The problem isn't that they cost money, the problem is that they're time limited and they're removing old cosmetics to make them time limited going forward. It'd be better if they returned to having some cosmetics for auric cells and others shards that are always available instead of this time limited anti-consumer FOMO.

    The only reason money has been brought up is because BHVR made an announcement only a few months ago that all original non-licensed cosmetics would be available for shards after 4 weeks. They've now have already gone back on that by saying these cosmetics that will be in the store for over 4 weeks won't count because they're "time limited" and to make it worse also are removing cosmetics that have been available year round (and for shards) to now make them time limited anti-consumer FOMO outfits as well.

  • Working in retail we had to start putting up the Halloween products at the end of July so you could definitely get a plastic pumpkin (or other Halloween decorations) in July.

    You can also get pumpkins for cooking year round because we are no longer limited to seasons when it comes to agriculture. Science is cool. 😂

    Ah, sorry.

    Well, if anyone else in this thread hadn't seen that statement, hopefully they'll see it now. It's BS, the outfits should at least be available for shards when they return next year. I hate this seasonal availability nonsense in general.

    Same, it's bad enough they are doing FOMO but going back on their own statement only a few months later AND removing cosmetics from the shop to make time limited as well is terrible. I'm so disappointed in them for turning to such anti-consumer practices.

    https://forum.deadbydaylight.com/en/discussion/comment/3285200#Comment_3285200

    Those cosmetics are HOLIDAY specific, and should be seasonal. I dont understand why anyone would think otherwise.

    Because for 6 years they have put all cosmetics, including holiday, in the store without restricting the time available to buy them.

    It's also not just holiday cosmetics they are doing this to. PJs in Cozy Break and Megs Outfit in Winter Tales are generic - there's nothing about them to make them specific to a holiday. At most you could say they are winter but DBD is played in both the Northern and Southern hemispheres, when it's winter in the Northern Hemisphere it's summer in the Southern Hemisphere so those in half the world won't have access to the "winter season" cosmetics when it's winter for them.

  • @MisterMister said:

    https://forum.deadbydaylight.com/en/discussion/349940/any-response-from-bhvr-why-time-limited-skins-are-in-a-paid-game

    Out of curiosity, how do you expect the people that work on this game to earn a living? Cosmetics, and New Chapters, with the occasional rift. The DBD community DEMANDS new updates, bug fixes, and the like, do you believe that only takes 1 guy sitting in a cubicle? I’d imagine it takes teams of people working all the time to manage, and support a game that caters to hundreds of thousands of people on just about every continent of the earth. Those teams need to be paid. I’m sure they aren’t paid nearly enough, and I’m dumbfounded at how people can get so upset when they just want to be paid for their hard work. People aren’t paying for the game, then expected to pay for the basic skins. The cosmetics are game choices, not life choices, if you can’t afford it, don’t buy it, simple.

    They could just put up cosmetics for auric cells that stay in the store forever like they have done for the past 6 years without using anti-consumer tactics like FOMO.

  • I saw that, my comment was made yesterday before she made hers today. I've commented on other posts that going back on their statement is not OK.

  • @SpaghettiYOLO said:

    https://forum.deadbydaylight.com/en/discussion/comment/3283564#Comment_3283564

    Nothing special... they're all literally holiday themed or winter themed wear. The PJs have always been released during the winter. The bundled up cosmetics weren't released in the middle of summer. The sweaters, Christmas themed cosmetics, holiday colored cosmetics were all released during the HOLIDAYS. You're not missing out on anything if you can't get them all this year. They will return DURING the holidays next year.

    On a separate note, the only people I've run into wearing holiday stuff during spring/summer/fall have always went out of their way to try and troll or be toxic in a game. If you weren't buying these skins during those seasons before, why do you suddenly care now? And if you did buy some of these during those seasons before, how many times did you actually wear them? Enough to be this upset this? I highly doubt that.

    I know I won't be able to buy every single one this year. And I don't care because I'll have the chance next year when I know I'd want to wear them.

    Winter in the Northern Hemisphere.*

    The PJs are not specific to a holiday, they are just generic PJs. Using "it's winter" as an excuse excludes all the players that are in the Souther Hemisphere - it's summer for them and now a bunch of "winter" cosmetics will no longer be available when it is winter for them. They'll have to buy a "winter" cosmetic out of season - which apparently is only done to troll.

    I know. I'm laughing now because it's gonna time-limited... but only accessible with shards. Why? Because of seasons? That's not a good reason

    I'd love for valve to step in and say BHVR need to leave his sweater to be available all the time.

  • Time limited cosmetics were already bad on their own but removing cosmetics that are in the store just to make them time limited is terrible.

  • Camping/tunneling is a consistent method to get kills and there's nothing to discourage it. Add in a killer that has a power that helps them camp easier and you'll see it more often. Knight can send his AI to camp so it's a go to for Knight players is camping.

    Realising that Bill's ugly sweater is only available via shards, will be removed, and reintroduced next year... via shards only because I'm pretty sure that DbD isn't allowed to make money off Bill's inclusion into the game.

    Yeah, that makes sense!

    I think in their license agreement with Valve anything with Bill has to have free option. It's why he's a free licensed character, his cosmetics are all available for shards, and his cosmetic/charms were all in the free track when he had a rift tome. I could be wrong but pretty sure he's safe from being auric cell only.

  • All the summer cosmetics will be removed and time limited to summer.

    Greek legends will get removed and time limited to 2 weeks during Olympics - whether it'll only be summer Olympics or they'll do it for both summer and winter Olympics is questionable.

    https://forum.deadbydaylight.com/en/discussion/comment/3284691#Comment_3284691

    That's extremely disappointing to hear.

    I believed that they would because previously released information stated that new non-licensed outfits would become purchasable with shards after 4 weeks and these are available for a little over 4 weeks so i told people that you should be able to, unless they make an exception or come up with a new rule... i really did not expect that would happen.

    Same. I didn't think they'd go back on that statement, especially since they made it only a couple months ago.

    Not only are they not making these time limited cosmetics available for shards after the 4 weeks but they are also removing cosmetics that are currently available for shards to also make them time limited. It's like that backtracked on a good consumer decision to then double-down on the anti-consumer decision.

  • I'd rather the old system of some cosmetics auric cells all the time instead of making things limited time. What about the new players that saw the Christmas shard cosmetics in store in September and have been working towards being able to buy them? They think they have plenty of time but nope, this year BHVR has decided to start pulling cosmetics and that player may not even be able to get them for shards when they come back depending on how anti-consumer BHVR keeps going.

    The being available for shards though atleast gives people a chance to not be forced to spend real money or miss out.

    Unless they confirm that I'm going to assume they're not going to be available for shards.

    Still, anyone who doesn't have enough shards (and 5 outfits cost a LOT of shards) will be still forced to miss out on those, unless they cough up money.

    I should've known better but I didn't think BHVR would be so anti-consumer to back track on that statement they made only a couple months ago. I thought maybe they actually listened to the complaints at Halloween about the 3 weeks to avoid shards and they adjusted at this event. Nope. Not only are they backtracking but they're also removing current shard available winter cosmetics to add them into their FOMO plan. Like they've already doubled down and made it worse.

    https://forum.deadbydaylight.com/en/discussion/comment/3284731#Comment_3284731

    I don't have that information at this time I'm afraid.

    I have to say it's really disappointing to see cosmetics that were always available not only be removed from the store but also possibly made to be auric cell only instead of available for shards. It's also extremely discouraging to see that only a few months after announcing "all original non-licensed cosmetics" would be available for shards after 4 weeks BHVR has not only gone back on this by making loophole exceptions with "time limited" cosmetics but also that current shard available cosmetics are being removed to most likely make them auric cell only with a time limited loop hole BHVR has not created.

    BHVR made players very excited with the "all original non-licensed cosmetics will be made available for shards after 4 weeks" only to just ruin it in such a short time. This is yet another time that BHVR has made a statement that excited players only to go back on it. It doesn't help gain player trust when each time they get excited by something they basically get a slap in the face of disappointment not long after.

    Also frustration is not directed at you Mandy but at whoever makes these decisions at BHVR. I know you are just in the unfortunate situation of being the messenger.

    They will not become purchasable with shards, these themed seasonal outfits are exempt from that.

    What about the ones that are being removed from the store that are currently available for shards? Will they be available for shards when they come back or after they're removed going forward they will be auric cell only?

  • @PCB2022 said:

    I added the game to my library when it was free on PS monthly many years ago and only started playing it last year I started buying the DLC after a month or so and moving on to a new killer the game is now on PS extra I am on PS essential that means me paying another 40 quid to play it again or I can buy the game currently at 25 quid.

    No I am not banned just locked out on the monthly games I have added over the years.

    They have all moved up to another tier and this is not fair having to fork out more cash.

    If you got the game for free years ago through the ps+ monthly free games it should still be in your library. Go to your library and see if you can download it from there?

    Free monthly games are separate from the ps+ essential/extra/premium game catalogues that require the specific tiers to play. If it's no longer in your library contact Playstation support since they would be the ones that removed the game you got free as a monthly game instead of part of the game catalogue in a subscription tier.

    What's so troublesome about the snowman that everyone is freaking out on forum? I did not play last year's christmas event

    Last year as survivor you had to jump in a snowman and get hit by the killer to get your sparkles to earn a cosmetic (or more difficult you needed to escape in a snowman that moved slow but you got 25k bonus BP for it), as killer you needed to hit a snowman that had a survivor in it to earn your sparkle. Survivors found out that if they were injured they could hop in a snowman and if killer hit the snowman it didn't hurt them, just popped the snowman. There were 6 or 8 snowmen total, once a killer popped a snowman with a survivor inside it didn't return.

    So first survivor in a chase made killer pop all the snowmen while using them as protection and annoyed killer by not going down. Other survivors were annoyed because they're denied cosmetic pieces because no snowmen for them to jump into and get hit for sparkles.

  • You can change your survivor controls.

    Actions are vaults, pallets, and lockers.

    Interactions are everything else like repairing, healing, cleansing, unhook, Pinhead chains, etc.

    After you change the buttons the only thing that can screw you up is someone dying with item on basement hook and someone else getting hooked on same hook - can go to pick up item instead of unhook if not paying attention. Can't change that though because "pick up item" is tied to the interaction button instead of the "drop item" button.

  • I've lost count of the number of times I've heard the killers terror radius when my camera is still spinning loading into the match or when I can see the killer facing my character during the camera spin. It's been happening for awhile to the point I just expect it at this point.

    Even if that turns out to be true (don't get your hopes up) the issue is not "They are Auric Cells only". We've had "Auric Cells only" skins for years in the game and there's no issue in that.

    The issue is FOMO. FOMO is NOT okay.

    I agree, overall I'm not a fan of them doing this and I've said multiple times I think they need to stop with exclusives and FOMO.

    The being available for shards though atleast gives people a chance to not be forced to spend real money or miss out.

    still hate the fact that this set has won over the other. Meg and Adam looked good there, Yun-Jin was in it and the only really good cosmetic from this set (Dredge) could have still been made! 😢

    https://forum.deadbydaylight.com/en/discussion/comment/3283547#Comment_3283547

    Really? I thought it was pretty simple: there are styles you just can’t do with the Limitation that the dress has to be able to be cut at some specific line. The main issue with the existing set cosmetics are the separate pieces that would still work great alone and the other 2 are the ones defining it to be a set eg several survivor head cosmetics or killer weapons.

    also they did say they want to review them and possibly unlock some - would be cool if there was some word if that’s still planned

    I agree the other set's outfits looked way better. Had the other set won I would be getting multiple outfits when they became available for shards, now I'll just be getting Yun Jin's because it's the only one that looks good.
