Maybe if the newspaper was coming from the main game Twitter, not mobile that has different release schedule and doesn't share anniversary with main game.
-
She's popular on ps4/crossplay off. I see her pretty frequently. Last night played 6 matches and 3 were against her.
-
On PS4, farming with some survivors tonight and experienced this. Hold survivor while they wiggle, before they wiggle free down another survivor (exposed or injured, didn't matter), pick up other survivor and they instantly wiggle free. No perks to help wiggle/escape like boil over, DS, etc.
-
I got the charm when I logged in on Tuesday the 15th. Here's what I did/didn't do.
I'm on console - ps4.
I won DLC code on release day and entered it into the game that night.
I didn't play every day - didn't play for entire weekend between release day and day I got the charm.
I never reached full condemned status. Was never mori'd from being condemned.
I did get regular mori'd once - don't remember which day.
I have taken out tapes and put them into their tvs.
I have not escaped with a tape.
-
Wraith - I don't know what it is but when I play him when he is cloaked and zipping around it kinda gives me motion sickness. Don't really have that issue with any other killer. Because of the motion sickness feeling doing the "uncloak and hit survivors" challenges are pretty miserable since have to be cloaked to do them. Usually have to find some that are up for farming that.

I liked this just for the "reinstate Haddonfield."
-
You have to turn it off from main menu, you can't do it when you are in survivor/killer menu.
-
They really should fill the free track with BP/Shards. It looks so empty and just makes the rift as a whole look bad.
-
They did a mid-chapter patch that was mostly game health bug fixes and people complained about it not having anything new. If people are complaining about mid-chapter patch not having anything new there's no way we'd get a chapter patch focused on game health.

@GoodBoyKaru said:
Right, this argument is used a lot, and it's horrifically misinformed.
BHVR as a company, using your figure, has 900 employees total. Do you genuinely expect that all 900 work on Dead By Daylight, and Dead By Daylight alone?? Absolutely not.
They have security. They have janitors. They have maintanance, culinary staff on-site to provide the team with fresh hot food each day, general IT staff, etc. That alone slashes that 900 figure down by quite a bit (I will arbitrarily say that it cuts out a third, I don't actually know the exact amount).
Then, we get to the sections that work on the games. Games, plural, because BHVR does not work exclusively on Dead By Daylight. Around half or more of the remaining staff (around 600) are outsourced to other companies and studios will collaborate together. For the sake of argument, I'll take the generous figure of half. That leaves us with 300.
Of those 300 employees, we have a skeleton crew that works on-call weekends to ensure the technical aspects of the game (ie servers) remain functional. We then need to split these up even further, into people that work on new content, and people that work on existing content (with the new content team being much larger). The Realm Beyond initiative had it's own separate team. The balance department decides on both new and old content, and works with the design team, who do the game. Concept artists, 3D modellers, graphic designers, level designed, people that work on the backend, customer support- I think I've made my point.
It absolutely is not 900 employees that work on DBD. It's probably a lot closer to 300, and the groups of people that work on new content are even less. Not to mention adding in more could potentially worsen x-efficiency and make the marginal cost a lot higher than you'd gain productively.
I think it was last years anniversary stream they even said BHVR has 900 employees and the team for DBD is 300.

No more than normal for me.

Fine. The only time I don't like it is when I'm doing unhook challenges since cages basically screw me out of getting that challenge done.

My first thought was where is Billy? Poor Billy. π

Ace may be Italian descent but he's from Argentina. If you're going to have him in Italy instead then Zarina should be in Lebanon and Deathslinger should be in Ireland instead.

Any involving the hatch for killer or survivor, especially since the hatch changes.
Yellow and blue glyph challenge. Yellow glyph has teammates spending the entire match focusing on finding and attempting the skill checks. Blue glyph has teammates hiding for match for hatch because escaping is requirement.
Any that require using an iri item for survivor. There's only 2, it's annoying.
Any that require hooking/rescuing during EGC. As killer you throw the game for survivors to get to EGC. As survivor you either need swf or sandbag random teammate to have them get hooked for you to unhook them.
Ones that are really made for swf - unhook someone that previously unhooked you, have x survivors escape before you, etc. Having to rely on others for you to do your challenge is obnoxious, it's annoying enough that they usually require you throwing the match. Before when kills/escapes weren't the basis for MMR it wasn't as bad but now you drop rank just to get a challenge done, it's dumb.
Ones that encourage unfun gameplay. Kill survivors by any means includes slugging until bleed out.
Ones that have killers play dumb. Like Huntress challenge that was like down a survivor with 0 hatchets left.
The challenges I like are the basic ones you do through normal game play. Hook survivors, chase survivors, unhook survivors safely, repair equivalent of x gens, heal equivalent of x survivors, hit survivors, cleanse totems, etc. Those super basic ones you do anyway so they don't make you throw a match or rely on swf or play in a way that is just dumb.
-
I'd bring her to vet to make sure she's pregnant and it's definitely not something else. Also check in on her health to make sure she has healthy kittens, especially if she had been neglected prior to you getting her.
If she is pregnant you can try reaching out to some local rescues for advice on getting them placed into good homes.
-
If they don't leave the match instead they will just spam loud noises, go afk, spend match chasing you around until you kill them, or spend match finding ways to screw over their teammates - this is what currently happens when survivors save a teammate that's trying to die. As a survivor I'd rather they just leave a match they don't want to play in because the ones that stay in a match they don't want to be in usually end out making it miserable time for the others. If someone kills themself on hook just play normal, you don't need to let the others go. Play normal, raise your MMR to level where players don't quit against the nurse.

I own the DLC on ps4, won it while watching a Fog Whisperer on release day. Today I hopped on to grab my daily log in reward., I skipped the opening cutscene, hit "press button to continue", was confused when another cutscene played, watched it because it was different, loaded into menus, got pop up for charm before the daily log in pop up or news pop up.
-
This is why I clicked on the topic. π
I skipped the first cutscene, was so confused when another one started to play. π
-
They really should do separate dailies, 3 survivor and 3 killer.
-
No.

There's not a date I can share on this yet I'm afraid.
This makes me sad, I really miss that map. Why was Haddonfield disabled while it's being reworked when the other maps that went through a rework weren't disabled?
-
For anything to happen if you were to do something bannable the player would need to report in game at the end game screeb and then send down a report ticket to support with video proof of whatever they think you did that was bannable. The only exception is the in game chat - that automatically gets sent down because BHVR has the chat logs. It takes time for them to get through reports (it's not instant) so could be awhile before you would experience a ban if you did actually do something bannable.

Well either way, its up to BHVR and no official statement has been given and was on the official survey so Fnaf can still happen.
If a lot of fans want it and it's something BHVR mentioned/acknowledge, then it's still possible
Scooby Doo was also on official survey, as were about 50 other franchises from a variety of genres.

No but I can see you being using the ancient ways of "Sarcasm" to try to get in skin, so I am just gonna roll with that.
I am saying there is a good reason why Jeepers Creepers is not and will never be in DBD.
Anytime I chat with you it turns into a back and forth situation, so just gonna leave it at that
If King and Paulie like to see Fnaf in DBD who are Fog Whispers I am pretty sure Devs would like to have Fnaf in DBD
There is also a Fog Whisperer that said he'd boycott the chapter if FNAF came to DBD.

Anything that's target demographic is kids in middle school/junior high and younger - Coraline, FNAF, Scooby Doo, Scary Stories, etc. It's one thing for kids to play an adult game (it's going to happen with any game), it's another to encourage them to play an adult game by bringing in franchises that target kids for their audience.

I don't think they'll abandon SBMM - and I have seen a positive difference overall in my match quality. SBMM could definitely be improved though.
https://forum.deadbydaylight.com/en/discussion/comment/2848590#Comment_2848590
For me it was the Artist chapter, now I have to run the game on Medium to get anything stable at 4k.
I said this when the Artist came out - every match I know it's her the moment the cameras stop spinning because I get a freeze.
-
Optimization - performance just continually gets worse. I've already seen complaints for performance issues popping up on PS5. Every update I wonder if it's going to get as bad or worse than the RE chapter - I've given up thinking it'll get better. They should fix this before adding more ontop of their already shakey coding.

You said they "Delete posts that state BHVR isn't listening to the community" which, is a form of criticism. A serious one, that happens to be true when it comes to issues of game health/balance.
I didn't say that at all. I said they don't delete posts that are just criticism, it's why we have so many posts criticizing them open.

@Breadn said:
https://forum.deadbydaylight.com/en/discussion/comment/2848548#Comment_2848548
Then how about they just delete the offending comments, instead of deleting the whole discussion? Sounds to me like a horrible way to handle things.
Probably depends on how many offending comments there were and if people were warned to stop with those comments but they continued anyway. It happens in what starts as decent convo, others ruin it to point mods end up deleting post.

@N3oN667 said:
https://forum.deadbydaylight.com/en/discussion/comment/2848548#Comment_2848548
So... you just admitted that BHVR doesn't listen to criticism and would just rather delete threads then address concerns that the playerbase has. Got it.
I don't even know how you got to that conclusion from my saying they don't just delete posts.

I can't link you to the deleted post because it's.. deleted.
If it was deleted, instead of closed like you originally stated, then something in the comments must've happened to cause the mods to delete instead of just close. There's alot of posts on the forums that are about chat with complaints/ideas for changes that the argument of "it's because BHVR doesn't want to listen" doesn't work - all those posts would be deleted including the one I linked if that was the case.
-
Are you sure the posts are actually closed and not moved to different sub forum - usually Feedback because that is where the post belongs, not General Discussion.
This is most recent chat filter post I've seen that says "closed" on first page of General Discussion but that's because it was moved to Feedback where it is still very much open, you can continue to comment on it there.
@JimmyCasket said:
Why is there a chat filter in a game rated M FOR MATURE? The answer is because people who play this are NOT mature. This should be removed, since the game's rating states those that are under 18 should not be playing it. It's also very broken and censors random things. If people can't take angry/trash talking in the post game chat, play Animal Crossing then.
-
I miss the old maps so much, especially night time cold wind. π
-
I think they should do 3 killer and 3 survivor dailies. That way if you play one side you always have dailies to work on, if you play both sides you get rewarded with extra BP.
-
There should be a new map with a well.
There should also be maps made for the other DLCs that didn't come with a map. More maps for more variety.

Is it bad that I assume this is gonna make the cheating problem worse?
Atleast it'll only be for this weekend. It's not like when it launched on Epic and everyone got to keep the game, this is more like a free trial.

@Nun_So_Vile said:
Good for them. Glad I turned off crossplay. Games have been much better and hacker free. Can't wait to put my trapper up against some free weekend players.
Probably good weekend to go for Adepts too, go against the free players that don't know what they're doing.

You've definitely convinced me to not let her get pregnant, that's for sure. As much as I'd love to have a fluffy mini-version of her, I don't have it in me to deal with the issues you brought up. My mind and body can't take much after I get home from work these days, and dealing with potentially 6 little fur monsters is sounding more and more stressful, something which I have had enough of in my life. I'll wait until after I win the lotto to have more than two kitties (I plan to eventually adopt one more so my cat can have a friend when I'm not home). And, if I am honest, it's hard for me to trust people from what I've experienced (I drove a taxi and did rideshare for 14 years), and I've seen humanity at their lowest and I would just make an excuse to not give the kitties away. I did some research and they do have places in my city that will help with covering the costs of vaccinations and spaying. It'll break my heart to take her to the vet so I'm forcing my roommate to take her while I pay for it. It will work out great because he's the one who brought her into my life, and he's retired with lower income than me, so they'd definitely help with reducing the fees.
I'm going to wait on the fountain until I'm ready to get another cat. Currently, I'll just make sure to change her food and water after washing her bowls every evening. As for the litter, we started with the cheapest one, but there was too much dust and it didn't do much in regards to smell so I upgraded to one of the Arm&Hammer options. It does a really good job at clumping, though I'm not sure about it's flushability. I care more about reducing dust and it's (I think) something like 99% dust free, though I saw an option that says they have one that's 100% dust free that I will try out. Sure, it's more expensive, but its only a once in a month purchase and I'm giving up my daily coffee/lattes and unhealthy snacks (it's a process, but I am having good progress, though it's so hard, maybe I'm a cat π±) so it'll even out. I like the one I have because it's great with dealing with smells, except for the times the little piggy jumps on my desk and farts (it's so disgusting, but she just looks at me like ha ha). She didn't have a problem with changing the brands either, thank God.
I'll definitely be getting a nice sized carrier and a blanket for her. I'll keep the blanket in there and sprinkle some treats on it to encourage her to sleep in there sometimes and get used to it, but I'll make sure my roommate takes her to the vet so she can hate him and love me π. Thanks for the advice, I haven't thought about it at all. The good thing about this kitty is that she is very docile. She's never bitten me or scratched me except for one time when I really pushed her to and even then, when I say "ah" she looks at me and immediately stops, understanding that it's no longer playing and I'm in pain. She's such a good girl. I love the fact that she lets me hold her like a baby and giver her belly rubs. All other cats I've had when I was young would turn my hand into Swiss Cheese when I even thought about touching their tummies.
Thanks for the advice, especially about the spaying and waiting on deals for the cat trees and collars. I will wait for Black Friday and Christmas to buy her a cat tree. Currently, I'll just collect the Amazon boxes my other roommate gets since he's always ordering stuff online and use them to make her a little condo that she can climb on and look out the window.
The hardest thing is going to be not sharing my food with her, but I will stand firm and make sure to keep treats for her. I found these little salmon tubes called Puree made by Pure Balance (distributed by Walmart) that she loves. So I'll give her one before I eat and try not to feel guilty.
If it's clay or the plastic bead litter it won't be flushable. The World's Best is I think a corn based litter so it's all natural which was why it's flushable. Litter is made from so many different types of material now, it's crazy.
Vet is definitely not a fun time for kitty cats. At first she'll have to go a bunch because boosters but after that it should be once a year visit for check up/yearly vaccines (or in case of some every 3 years). It's not unless cat develops health issues or when it gets older that visits end up happening more often.
Definitely good idea to wait on sale for cat tree. I had the small $20 cat posts that my cat loved and then splurged on the cat tree once it was on sale. He still went for the small posts to scratch but loved his cat tree to hang out on.
If she goes anywhere you don't want, like counter or something, double sided tape is awesome to put down to deter her. They sell wide rolls of it at pet shops in the cat section. Can also put it places she goes to scratch if it's like a door or something. It's one of those things that won't hurt her, cats just tend to not like sticky feelings on their paws so it'll get them to leave whatever it is alone.

You're absolutely correct with how many unwanted cats are in shelters. Heck, it's worse than that, many aren't even taken to shelters and are just dumped in parks. I used to live near one where people would come just to kick their pets out of their cars and drive off. Lots of cats would wander to our apartment grounds looking for food and it was obvious they weren't regular strays because they were friendly and let us pet them. They never lasted though, due to the influx of other animals that would scare them off.
I was being a little selfish because I wanted to experience my kitties motherhood more than I wanted her toπ , but yeah, it's better to get her fixed soon. I'll do it when I get paid next. I spoke to my roommate about her and he says he highly doubts she's ever been to the vet so I need to take her to get her shots and have an overall health check.
Thank you so much for the advice! Fun fact, I live in the city where the creators of the Furminator are from! I'll be sure to get it because I can make a whole new cat with all the fur she sheds on my things. Don't worry about plants, I don't have any and don't plan on getting one. I'll be more careful with what she eats, I just feel bad when I eat and she comes begging for some, so I'll have to discipline myself. I also have to put everything in cupboards or Tupperware because shes a huge piggy. I woke up the other day and found two factory sealed bags of popcorn shredded on the floor because she had a taste for it. I also caught her trying to tear into a small slice of chocolate cake that was completely wrapped in plastic wrap. Luckily, I got to her in time before she ate from it, I know it's bad for her.
My sister had a cat that got pregnant before she had a chance to get her fixed because she got out of the house while in heat. Then she got pregnant again not long after because she got out of the house while in heat again before my sister could get her fixed - you are supposed to wait a certain amount of time after the kittens finish weaning to get the momma cat fixed. My sister thought free kittens to good home would be easy but instead she had a difficult time finding homes for the kittens, ended up keeping a bunch herself since she never found homes - which ended out costing a whole lot more money when you need to get 5 cats fixed and vaccinated instead of just 1. Kittens were super cute but actually having kittens that young in the house was super stressful. The momma cat chose shelf with sweaters to give birth. My sister was so worried about the kittens falling and getting hurt, momma cat just kept bringing them up there anytime my sister tried to move them somewhere safer.
If you are really interested in experiencing kittens that young I'd recommend try volunteering for a rescue, maybe even foster a pregnant cat. You'd get to experience pregnant cat/kittens but have a shelter that is planning to handle vet stuff and get them adopted out.
My old cat I constantly had to take people food away from him. I had to keep Twizzlers out of reach because he'd go crazy for them. Found that out after he went digging through bowl of candy for trick or treaters looking for the little Twizzler packets. There was also a time I made pizza bites, had plate on side table next to me cooling while I played a game when all of a sudden I heard something small fall on the ground - my cat had reached up and grab one off the plate, hadn't take a bite yet because he realized it was too hot. If I was eating a ham sandwich he'd try to take a bite out of it while I was taking a bite. They can be pretty ridiculous. π
Definitely keep some kitty treats handy for those sad kitty eyes when you're eating. Toss kitty that instead of people food, kitty won't realize your not eating same thing and hopefully let you eat in peace for a few. I do not recommend teaching your cat how to open treat jars, no matter how cute it is - I did that and my cat ended up opening them when I wasn't around and eating the whole thing, went from haha cute to oh no... π
I saw recommendation for fountain - if you do chose to use one be sure to change the filter regularly and follow the cleaning instructions for the tubing. Also be sure to clean the cats water bowl regularly to prevent bacteria build up - can get like a slimey texture in the dish, sometimes it can become pinkish which can be bad for their health.
Oh for litter there are SO many different kinds now - I used to work at a petshop and it's crazy how many there are. Some cats are fine with changing litter, others are not fans at all if you try to change it. There was one litter I never heard a complaint about and it was the World's Best cat litter. I didn't use it - my cat was 15 when I found out about it and was set in his ways. π All the customers though that did use it thought it was the best cat litter. It wasn't as dusty as the clay litter, it clumped really, and it's flushable.
Oh and I forget to mention before - scratch posts, super important. There's different types because cats can be picky. My cat would only go for the carpeted ones, he hated the rope ones or cardboard ones. He also would tear up furniture if you didn't keep scratch post near - he destroyed corner of my roommates couch in college because her friends would move the scratch post away from the corner and he'd go to town on it until the post was moved back.
Keep an eye on sales at petshops. When I worked at petshop (was one of the big name ones) around Christmas one year they did single day sales. One day was like 50% or 75% off cat trees - those are the ones the cats can climb and they can be anywhere from $100-$300 depending on the size so a sale on those like that is huge. Every few months they'd do 50% off sales on Seresto collars (really awesome flea/tick collar that lasts 8months) so instead of being $80 would be $40.
Oh and something to make your life much easier - get a carrier your cat can walk into herself and spend time training her to think it's a happy place. This will make taking her to vet SO much easier. My cat loved his carrier, he'd go lay in it just because. Have carrier open all the time, put treats in there randomly so cat wants to go in. I used to take my cat with me when I'd go over someone's house randomly, just so he'd see getting in carrier didn't always mean vet it'd mean he got to come with me when I went somewhere so he was always good getting in.
-
While I understand wanting her to experience motherhood PLEASE get her spayed instead. There are so many cats in shelters and so often they get put down because there's too many because people do not spay them.
If you haven't already definitely bring the kitty to the vet to get checked out, especially if it was being neglected. Want to make sure it didn't end out with any health issues that may require a special diet. If she's been having issues pooping after having been starved by previous owner you'll want to make sure there's not an underlying cause.
Stick with cat food and cat treats instead of human foods. Deli meats often have alot of sodium/preservatives in them which aren't great for animals. I would definitely avoid meatballs since many times they will have onions in them which are on the list of toxic for cats.
As far as cat food goes Purina and Hills Science Diet tend to be good big name brands that do both dry and wet food. You want to check label for serving sizes - usually they give the daily serving size so if it says like 1/2 cup dry food for your cats weight that is for 1/2 total for the day not for every meal. It's good to stick with serving sizes to avoid cat gaining too much weight - it's difficult to get a cat to lose weight since it's not like you can easily take them for walks like a dog. Giving can of wet food a day you'll want to adjust how much dry food you give her (usually if using same brand it'll tell you how to adjust) - generally this is good to do since the wet food will help with hydration.
For cat brush I recommend a Furminator, they are awesome and remove so much excess fur.
If you like flowers/plants there is a list of plants you can Google that are toxic for cats. Lilies are super toxic, cats have ended up dying from getting the pollen on their fur and licking it off so definitely avoid having them around.
