No, the killer gets no visual ques for non loud actions such as walking, grunts of pain, ect. If you cared about accessibility like you claim you'd want killers to have the same options available
Ok… I never outright stated I didn't, nor made any mention about it in the first place? This post isn't about that, lol.
You are free to make your own post and suggest such a thing, if you'd like! :) I'm sure you could get feedback there.

The visual heartbeat is a killer nerf. Killers dont get visual assistance for vaults, ect. Its a joke to say it's about accessibility when only one side gets it.
It's an accessibility setting? you'd rather people who can't hear to just… not be able to play??? because it's 'a nerf to killers'? Seriously?
It's not even over-the-top. Again, it's a feature that's already in the game for other characters. I'm proposing it be shared to others to make things fair for HoH folk.
You seem like you don't like the VTR either, and uh… that's definitely a you issue. Bit of a twisted mindset imo to say 'it shouldn't be in the game because it's a nerf, and I don't like it, accessibility is a joke, etc… (even though it's there by design to support disabled folk, who literally can't hear the Radius.)'
Edit, as I just reread your comment: The killer does get a visual cue for a survivor vaulting? You either see them vault, or you get the big blackish-orange Loud Noise Notification. So your comment is false, sorry.

While I sympathize greatly I am concerned because the visual terror radius on Sadako from her lullaby has nerfed her stealth pretty bad. The fact that her lullaby is ALSO directional, survivors know exactly where she is coming from. Its pretty frustrating. I am worried if we do this with other killers we are going to run into similar issues.
I did specifically offer non-directional lullabies as the idea, though. Even though it still isn't fair or on par, for Spirit specifically, since people who can hear her can tell where she is. Although in that case, it might actually make sense for it to be directional! considering it's already implemented in the game that way.
And edit to reaffirm: this is already in the game in numerous places, and it works. I'm simply saying it makes sense to then make the others match, so people who can't hear can actually play against those killers! :)

This is probably not a console, but EGS (if OP is on steam). 98% of cheaters play on EGS accounts due to the free giveaway that gave them inexhaustible supply of new accounts. So yeah, most likely a cheater.
I am on Steam, yes.. good point. :(

Edit: I received clarification; this is in fact not bugged. It was a misunderstanding of how the penalties worked.
-
Same here. Can't tell why, only some characters have retained their perk loadouts:
- Dwight, Claudette, Bill, Min, Mikaela, Vittorio, Thalita, Renato, Ellen, Sable, Trevor, and Rick are all untouched.
- Yun-Jin doesn't have anything equipped, for some reason..
- All other Survivors have one of their own perks equipped, and some random items (which is what happens when you've just unlocked a character.)
Just downloaded the patch after buying the DLC and went to level Vee when I noticed this… rather annoying, given that most of the affected Survivors probably had builds besides my default.. now I'll never know lol.
-
same here!! it was playing the sound any time I equipped/unequipped an item or perk!

This?

This is same bug as this one and has logs added by me. Effects Trapper too.

This. Had multiple games as Trapper on the Resort map, couldn't place traps in 99% of the main building.

I thought it was just me!! I had that happen when a Huntress kicked my gen (with Blast Mine) and nothing happened!

Proof that it is in fact, triggering through walls:

I don't know why this has been marked as not a bug. What's been occurring doesn't match what the patch notes say… Can a dev please explain what I'm missing? :(
-
Don't think this is a bug. Been this way as long as I can remember; quite sure it's intended! it's been used by many, many people and shows up in tons of videos.
-
Update, the day after posting: Tested again. DC'd once, after playing several games again. Got a 15m penalty. Despite playing all these matches, the penalty is not decaying at all.

@NicKayless said:
Just had the same thing happen twice, but then not the third match. Very confused what triggers it.
"Last updated March 2024" and its cropping up again?? oof. I can't recall SiS being changed recently. Wonder what bugged it out now?
-
Edit: they're now showing, it looks like??
So maybe the bug isn't them not unlocking, it's them unlocking but on a severe delay?? Because I reached their tiers in the rift probably about an hour ago, if not earlier.
-
Same. Just updated for the new chapter, started the game, and it popped.
Huh??

oh yikes, yeah.
did someone break her skateboard??? what happened D:

Hold on, there's more.. it happened for Survivor, too?

forgot to attach this, sorry…
-
Just a side-by-side picture; I do not own the Iron Maiden shirt for Zari (the top one,) but I do own Casting/the Murder Mill shirts (which should be the bottom one)…
Also just did a quick check through… this bug does not occur on any other survivors besides her! hope that helps.
-
Was playing in a SWF when we ran into this, not a single one of us (or anyone in chat, as it was a live TTV group) knew what just happened. For sure needs a killswitch, this would be insane combined with Lethal, especially considering Wesker can Bound across open maps.

Not sure this is a bug, though. Did it used to not stun via HO?

@Paige said:
so this reminded me of something similar that happened to me. idk if this is the same thing youre talking about but i thought i would see if it helped you. i play on playstation sometimes and i noticed when i click the event challenges it takes me to page 3 of the challenges, instead of page 1. page 3 is obviously supposed to be locked, but if you try clicking on the little icon for page 1, it might solve your problem and take you where you need to be to choose a challenge. this doesnt happen when im on my steam account btw. seems to be a console issue.
I was gonna say… "Are they clicking into levels 2 or 3 of the tome?" was my first thought.
Make sure you're in level 1, and you should see two separate tracks, top and bottom. Top is the DBD Day event track (whose challenges won't award any Dark Trinkets, be aware,) and the bottom is the Haunted By Daylight track.
-
This is not a bug. They retired cypress moris last big patch, and in its place we have base-kit moris against the last survivor left alive. No, its not fun to be slugged, tunneled, etc. for them to get the mori on you. But it is intended, them being able to kill you without any offering.
-
Haven't played Drac, so I'm not sure what the UI is supposed to look like. But, from what I heard, don't you have to collect scent orbs to charge the second lunge? or am I wrong…
-
Between this and her face animations freaking out, poor Yun-Jin can't catch a break, huh? ): Guess I'll try switching to pants? lol
-
This is still bugged… omg… poor girly. Please BHVR, can we get a fix for the poor gal?
-
What the others said. You won't get the heal nor speed boost if you are incapacitated (i.e. on the killers shoulder or on the hook) at the moment when Adrenaline should fire off. Sorry ;-;
-
I reported this a while ago ( https://forums.bhvr.com/dead-by-daylight/discussion/428111/minor-visual-bug-yuis-animations ) but no official response.. I think they acknowledged it, though!
-
The summary of the event was likely either a copy-paste typo, or a translation error. BHVR themselves have confirmed as much. There is no tome this time round, and there wasn't meant to be one. You can get the rewards just by playing Chaos Shuffle, without completing any specific challenges.
-
Was Victor deployed? If so, you'll get the 'Charlotte only' mori animation.
Or do you mean, Charlotte had Victor on her, but when the 'Charlotte+Victor' mori animation played, he was invisible?

Please, someone else tell me it isn't working for them omg 😭
I'm so sorry ;-; you're sure yours updated properly, and after today's patch?

My game is indeed working right now, or at the very least, it isn't giving me the error anymore. I can get in and play normally, it seems, though I haven't tried queueing up yet.
I'm not sure what changed, though..?

@meleemaster said:
This patch was able to fix the problem for me on steam. I know that the number one priority right now is to get the fix to everyone, but has the team considered a way to compensate players who were unable to access the game for the last two weeks? Especially since most of us missed out on the launch of the new chapter and the majority of the blood hunt event.
Oh entity, I actually forgot about the bloodhunt. I could've used all those BPs… 😥Maybe we'll get lucky and they'll extend it?
I'm unable to try my game right now, but I'll report back soon with an update on whether or not today's patch fixed it for me. (Has anyone been able to pin down what exactly might've changed?)

Given that a dev specifically said that there's no update or ETA, any (volontary, it's possible some random update fixes it by coincidence) fixes will likely have to wait at least until late-september/early October since it's very likely not gonna be in the upcoming PTB.
I really hope this isn't the case. I really do… I've been locked out of my favorite game for two weeks now; I'm still not sure why they can't just roll back the EAC update temporarily in order to fix it (while allowing people to play the game/DLC they've paid for) but… I really do hope it gets fixed in the next week or two.

Was just trying to help. Should goes without saying that I wrote based on what I experienced in reference to the comment of the guy saying he did the same thing and it worked.
However, it isn't clear for me what you meant by "one of the first things I tried". I don't think it is quite the same as what I tried?
To be clear, here is what I tried based on the suggestion by the other guy I mentioned so I was talking in reference to our unique condition:
- I have no other games using EAC.
- Dead by Daylight EAC not working.
- I installed another game using EAC.
- Dead by Daylight works just fine now.
In your case, you already have other games using EAC and Dead by Daylight still having similar issue. So it's different from our "bubble".
Also, care to explain what do you mean by "I tried with multiple games"?
Here is a few thigs you may try which I am sure you already tried and goes without saying is based on my bubble:
- Replace the EasyAntiCheat_EOS_Setup.exe file inside folder C:\XboxGames\Dead By Daylight\Content\EasyAntiCheat with the one from your other games using EAC? The folder should be located inside each game using EAC. That file seems to be the problem with Dead by Daylight. Try that if you haven't and if it still doesn't work then forgive my bubble.
Sorry! let me clarify that I didn't mean for my reply to come across as annoyed or short-tempered... May have accidentally put that vibe out there, as I'd just gotten done with a stressful round in another game when I was typing it up. Pardon me!
And what I meant was, I have numerous other games that require EAC to function. All of them (and their EACs) are up-to-date, but it doesn't seem to boot DBD's EAC into working… I don't want to try replacing/editing EAC files as I don't want a false alarm to go off in EAC and potentially ban me for 'file editing…' Maybe I'm paranoid, but I'd rather not risk it.
Only option right now is to wait for BHVR to fix it… hoping they can figure it out soon 😭

@dmitrilessy said:
Hi everyone,
I just want to confirm that I did this and it works, Dead by Daylight is now playable. I didn't install Guild Wars 2 on Steam since the game is 70 Gb in size but I was in a hurry to try so I just installed Fortnight on Epic, it's 45 Gb. If anyone wanna try this I recommend spending more time to search for smaller game.
The main thing to do this is to find another game that uses EAC so it will be installed when you install the game. You can refer to this page by SteamDB. Once the game is installed, play it and it will automatically install EAC. Leave everything the way it is. Close the game. Open Dead by Daylight. It should now work because now EAC is already installed. They only need one installation of EAC.
Issue Summary, if you wanna read it instead of playing for some reason.
Background issue:
- Dead by Daylight can't start because it is saying that Easy AntiCheat cannot initiate.
- It is impossible to know for sure whether EAC fails to initiate because it is installed but fails to initiate or that it is not installed. However, after I installed Fortnight I checked and found an Easy AntiCheat folder inside Fortnight folder.
- I believe EAC is game-dependent in away that it is bundled and installed along with a game that uses it BUT it will not install again if it's already found in the system. Similar to the way Visual C++ Redistributable is applied by games, I guess.
- Easy AntiCheat cannot initiate for Dead by Daylight because EasyAntiCheat_EOS_Setup.exe file located in Easy AntiCheat folder inside the game installation files can not initiate properly. When you click on it, something flashes like a DOS window or something but it is too fast to read anything on it then the window is closed. I believe it should instead initiate and install EAC if it's not found on the system and if it is found then it will proceed and start the game. I checked, the EAC folder in Dead by Daylight and it is different size from the one in Fortnight.
Solution that does not work:
- The quick repair for this is to INSTALL or REINSTALL EAC on your system, right? However, all tutorial for this refers to the game's EAC folder, which DOES NOT WORK for Dead by Daylight since the EasyAntiCheat_EOS_Setup.exe does not work so stop telling people to click on the file.
- The next thing to do is to download the EAC installer on your own, you know, like a normal person. This seems to be impossible since EAC does not seem to provide the installer for end-user to download. Why??? I have no idea. This is really annoying. So you can not download the installer.
Solution that works:
- The last thing to do is to get a game that uses EAC and install it. In the first guy's post he used Guild Wars 2 on Steam, for me I used Fortnight.
Please note that I have with me a .zip file of the folder EasyAntiCheat from Fortnight if anyone want to try replacing the one they have for Dead by Daylight and se if it works so you don't have to install an entire game just to have EAC. Anyone can do this and share so this could be a quicker solution for others. Careful though because anyone could just replace the .exe file with anything so if you don't know what you're doing then get the EAC from a trusted friend I believe we all have at least that one friend who plays Fortnight, right?
Note for BEHAVIOUR INTERACTIVE, no thanks to you and no need to respond to my days old complaint just check your Easy AntiCheat files FFS and get your s**** together.
On the side note, I have reasons to believe that this latest mess is a combination of BI (for not having their EAC dependent files through QC), Epic (for having such bizarre software and for having websites with no support or download page for your own software, kudoz to you, if no one can download your software, no one can exploit it, right on) and of course Microsoft with their Windows 11 recent policy to tighten security for certain files and folders. For example, notice that .exe files off your games installed by Microsoft Store or Xbox for PC app can no longer be interacted with by 3rd-party software. This is either the next mess or will blows over by the next update and on to the next mess.
Sometimes I am paranoid and think that perhaps they all do this on purpose and make it harder and harder to just want to play a game just so PC gamers give up and buy their consoles.
Hate to burst your bubble, but installing/updating/running another game that also uses EAC doesn't work (for me, at least.) 😥 That was one of the first things I tried, and I tried with multiple games. I've been completely unable to play DBD since the Castlevania update, meanwhile all other games that use EAC will run fine.
I'm very happy for you that you got your game working, though!! fingers crossed mine will eventually work too, LOL
- Dead by Daylight can't start because it is saying that Easy AntiCheat cannot initiate.

My guess is it's not a bug? You're using an event item; it likely doesn't recognize a 'higher tier' for the item, and I think people would get mad if they lost event items in this way.
-
Def should've disabled. Even if not for the time passing, then for the unhooking. DS has been bugged before, and this even might be a resurgence of that bug where one survivor nearly wiggling causing the next person you pick up to instantly break free..

Thank you! This seems like something that should be kept on the private side, though I'm not sure; is it ok if I message you with mine?

Hi, everyone! Can you please ensure that you are running your games as Admin? If running as Admin is not resolving the issue, can you please DM me your Steam IDs or your Epic Game Store ID? Thank you for your help!
My entire steam/steam library is set to run as Admin. It still isn't working… How do I find and send you my steam ID? I'm not sure how it'll help, but at this point I'm willing to try anything. ):

@Coordi said:
This is the only workaround we have seen posted that players are having success with:
- Go to your game's folder (Right click on the Dead by Daylight-> Manage->Browse local files:)
- Open the easy anti cheat folder
- Whilst holding the Shift key, right click "EasyAntiCheat_EOS_Setup.exe" and select "Copy as path"
- Press the Win key + R at the same time to open the Run prompt. Alternatively, open the Start Menu, search for "Run" and open the app from there
- Select the field next to open and press Ctrl-V to paste and At the end of the text, enter a space and the following: "install 2b2299be8ae84d679d4dc57c55af1510"
- Type "Ctrl+Shift+Enter" to run as admin and EAC will install for you. You should receive a User Account Control pop up asking to allow it to make changes to you device, if you are not running as admin. You will need to click "Yes"
I'm unable to test this right now, but I will as soon as I can and respond back with an update then…
But thank you so much for your reply; it's hard to put into words how much this post getting noticed (and potential fixes being shared) means to me. I was so psyched for the new update, not being able to get in was like a punch in the gut… I might finally be able to play w/o getting targeted for my prestige… should the Entity let me in, LOL!

Is there an update forthcoming on this? I have been unable to play the game since 8.2 launched, and I have yet to even see an acknowledgment from BHVR under the "known issues" page on this. From the forums it appears many are having this issue. I've put time and money into this game and it's completely unplayable for me and many others.
I've been hopeful, waiting to see a post from them to the public about "we're aware of the EAC issues and are working to fix it!" But I suppose this post being marked as 'seen and passed on to the dev team' is the closest equivalent? At least they acknowledged it and can hopefully work out a fix soon. ):

I don't keep much up-to-date on the news. I try to but aagh attention span is not good for livestreams. 😣
Has anybody heard any updates on this?? It feels like it's been forever since custom icons were popularized, surely BHVR's got integration somewhere on the plans?? 🤔 After adding banners, badges, etc. this just seems like a natural next step.

Ah, disregard this post. I've been informed that it's caused by the party chests!
-
Hi! I'll update this w some more info, since the post is still relevant but seems to have gotten lost among others.
Upon being hooked, the audio for the scream will play (if the player is not using Calm), however their face will not animate. Their head will move, but their eyes and mouth won't. They have a blank stare and a neutral expression. This happens both the first and second time you're hooked. If you go into struggle, your character's face will animate normally (grimacing and blinking) with no issues.
If I'm playing a female Survivor, she'll animate her scream properly. This only seems to affect the male Survivors. It's been happening for a bit, now.

What queue was this in, please?
I actually had a streamer friend I was watching run into this a few days ago, and it was in normal queue (not Shuffle)… their perks+items were seemingly unequipped during the match; none of the perks functioned either. But the tally screen showed they had a full loadout.
PC Steam, if it helps!
