I have no desire to use a voice comm
In fact the more I think about it, I think it's a major reason I stuck with DBD for as long as I did. Survivor has way more stuff to do in something like The Evil Dead Game but I don't want to talk to people while I play. If voice comms are added to the game, the game will be balanced with the assumption that the voice comms will be used.
I don't know if that's a specific reason to DBD but that's my specific reason against voice comms

I've got it. (The Teddy Bear principles always applies)
When you were speaking about "on your end" and something with my account, it occurred to me.
The bug is : if someone in your ignore list appears in the notifications, you get the notification but without seeing why.
So it's something to fix on the forum code.
Oh perfect! (well...not perfect but I'm glad you got it figured out)

Welcome to our new updated Forums!
We know it's different and that change is always a bit strange, we want to make this forum feel as much of a home as the previous one did, it is a work in progress on some things as you can see.
We're happy to hear your feedback on the new forum and whilst we won't be able to implement everything we will do our best to get the forums to your liking! We'll keep the feedback to this thread so the Mods will be moving posts here, this is just so that we can keep track of the comments easily.
We do have a couple of known issues:
- Home Button on the top left of the bar - this is a temporary measure to assist our mobile users
- Recent Discussions pulling from all games
- New Post Count - this is showing too dark on the comments
Thank you all for the patience you've shown whilst we work on this.
Mandy
They have a Forum Feedback section where I think you could bring this to their attention (though presumably Mandy will also wander in here at some point since I pinged them but this is where you would post these kinds of issues I believe)

I'm using several computers. A couple of windows, a handful of Linuxes, one Android (yes, technically a Linux too) : all have the issue.
Funny thing: none of the entries has that black dot telling "not read" (or "new" ?).
That's why I wonder if there's something wrong with your account period. Basically something is stuck in the back end that you're not going to be able to do anything about and you'll need a mod to whack the server and see if it shakes it out
@Mandy Is this something that you might be able to help with?

I'm sorry for your loss :(
Just remember that we're all human. As much as maybe we'd like to be, we can't exactly spend 100% of our energy on our pets at all times. Your cat almost certainly had a far better life having you as an owner than they would have otherwise. I'm sure right now you don't see it that way but try to keep that in mind and don't beat yourself up over what you could have done or what you didn't do that you should have.

I hate it
My game is now ruined because some whiny baby threw a fit for whatever offense I evidently did. I either just kill everyone ASAP and get the game over as quickly as possible (assuming they don't just start playing Hide & Seek out of spite because somehow this is my fault) or I let the survivors farm. Either way, my time has been wasted.

We're gonna hear about how long it took DH to be changed for the rest of our lives anytime anything "bad" happens to the killer side, aren't we?
Old DH was stupid unhealthy for the killer side and should have been changed sooner. Eruption was stupid unhealthy for the survivor side and deserved to be changed. I for one would rather BHVR learn from the DH experience rather than keeping stupid unhealthy things in the game just because it took them far too long to fix DH than it should have...
-
I disagree
It's not scummy of you at all. If they're going to go to a place where you can't hook them, the only way to deal with them is to let them bleed out.
Play stupid games Boil Over survivors...

I imagine a very large part of it is just how frustrating this game can be and too many players take that frustration out on their opponents rather than do the healthy thing like remember it's just a game or take a break for a bit or start a underground Fight Club.

There are killers who tunnel if a BPS is spent just as there are survivors who gen rush like they'll die in real life if they don't escape.

I don't know about that. I've lost count at how many times I've looped the killer for a few gens, then get repeatedly smacked on hook after I go down (camped as well).
I imagine that one is the Emotional Killer
I guess you could call it a win that you tilted them so much that they keep smacking you :D

If someone gives up on chase after 30 seconds, then they’ve wasted a lot more than 30 seconds, because now have to waste time patrolling the map to find a different survivor to chase, and they’re me no guarantee this new survivor will be easily to chase than the first survivor you were chasing.
Also very true. It's a learned skill for a killer to know when continuing the chase or dropping the chase is the smart play.
And sometimes there is no winning for the killer (like of all four survivors are good at looping or if you drop the chase only to not be able to find someone else to go after).
-
Short of completely reworking the perk to do something else, I don't know how you could possibly nerf it anymore than it is at this point.
-
@Dinan said:
yeah but why cant they just simply leave chase and switch target?
For a lot of killers, especially emotional ones or new killers, it becomes a matter of throwing good money after bad
If they give up on the chase after 30 seconds, that's 30 seconds they completely wasted. They don't think about the next 70 seconds they'll waste continuing to try to catch you, they just think about the first 30.
So when they do inevitably catch you, they've now wasted too much time on one player and decide to make sure they get the one kill instead of zero
It's (probably) nothing to do about hating you, it's that at that point they feel like they have no choice if they want to secure a kill

Fair point but Eruption hasn't changed yet. So Eruption is not the variable that would somehow explain this. Also the same can be said for survivors that bring ridiculous items every match.
Take me for example. I don't run gen regression perks. I simply don't like them. Never did. However, the survivors I face as a killer bring toolboxes and medkits that completely outclass everything I run and are often enough not good in chase and have to resort to predropping and pallet camping to hold me off for a while. I still lose many of these games because I can't burn through their resources as fast as they finish the game.
https://forums.bhvr.com/dead-by-daylight/discussion/comment/3338598#Comment_3338598
Interesting. I genuinely haven't thought about the possibility that some players were held back by this lack of information before. That could explain at least part of what we're seeing but should probably even out in a few weeks as their MMR should now put them somewhere closer to where they actually belong. Thanks for your insight!
I'm also not sure if I just made huge mistakes (possible) but I felt a bit powerless after in most of these games I lost 2-3 gens in 2 minutes even with Lethal Pursuer, which helps me to push off survivors from gens a bit. Would also be a bit weird, if for some reason I only started making these mistakes (that I'm mostly unaware of) just after the patch. It's a possibility none the less.
I do think that if you give it a bit of time, the ranks will start to even back out. Right now a lot of solo players who are good players are going to start winning games that they would have lost from lack of communication/teamwork while the solo players who just aren't very good are going to remain where they're at.
As to the powerless part, through my years of playing, I've determined that having those first gens pop quickly is basically expected at this point. I've always said the "True" game doesn't begin until you're at 2-3 gens as unless you're an incredible killer or going up against awful survivors, there's no real reason why the first few gens shouldn't be done when the killer has no real decent opportunity to fight back yet.
EDIT: Also, I do want to stress that this might also just be a "personality" kind of thing and that I'm running into the same issues as every other killer but I just...don't care :D I haven't noticed any big differences but I've played this game for so long that it might just be that I'm now pretty well immune to caring if I win or lose as a killer. Since I'm not feeling that frustration when I do get my skull caved in, I'm not noticing how often it's happening

Respect. Do your matches feel any different than before? I'm trying to find out how much the HUD actually changed when it comes to balancing. So I would really appreciate any insight you can give.
Many killer players (myself included) feel a difference in their matches. My matches have been mostly losses. I randomly tracked 10 of my games in a row and noted down average match times and kills. I got 7 kills (out of 40, so yeah, pretty bad) and an average game time of a bit over 6 minutes. I'm not sure why that changed so suddenly, granted I didn't really change my play style or perks. So that's why I guess it is probably connected to the new HUD.
It's hard to say for sure. It does feel like more gens do get done, so I'll certainly grant that part. I don't have nearly as many "4K with 3+ generators undone" games as I have before.
I also do have games that I do get curb stomped in but that's not any more unusual than normal. Sometimes it might just be a SWF. It could be the new HUD system that gives a group of solos the info they need to be really good. Sometimes I just suck D:
I just don't feel like I'm getting the curb stomping that everyone else seems to be getting but maybe I am and I'm just way more lax about it so I don't really notice...

I'm still mowing down survivors like a hot knife through butter
I must be playing a different queue or something because I'm not running into any real trouble murdering survivors like so many of these threads
-
IDK, maybe it's just my area or maybe because I don't play as often (and constantly switch up Killers) that my MMR dropped greatly but I've been having no issues murdering those meddling survivors.
Although at least reading this thread, I seem to be in the minority so...not sure what's up. I can't imagine my MMR has dropped that much since I do still play a match or two every day, even if that's a lot less than what I used to play. I don't run super sweaty builds (my builds vary based on the killer but I usually will run either Jolt or Oppression and Call of Brine for my slowdown perks and then various random other perks like Hysteria or Nurse's Calling or Blood Warden)

And according to the design of Boil Over, "going through a door" is an ambitious and greedy play.

@GentlemanFridge said:
You wiggle because it stops the killer from going across the map to hook you wherever they want.
That has always been the point.
This
The entire point of wiggling is just to force the killer to go to the closer hooks instead of hooking you wherever they want to hook you. It was never designed to be a way to get escapes as a survivor (hence why it's so damn rare, a killer has to get really greedy or the survivors have to be incredibly coordinated for you to realistically escape via wiggles).
It's also free BP if you need another reason to wiggle besides "strategy"!

Never said it was a fair perk, just stated that I want the perk to remain usable and not nuked out of orbit like Ruin and Thana.
If for some reason the only options are to remove the 25 second incapacitation or to Nuke it from Orbit...

The Incapacitation status effect needs to be dramatically shortened or replaced with something else
Whether the effect is "fair" or not is irrelevant to me. Not being able to play the damn game for 25 seconds as a survivor hit by it is mind numbingly boring and controller snapping frustrating. Block the gen for 25 seconds for all I care, just allow me to play the damn game if I get hit by Eruption.

Olive has fully settled in, I see.
Yeah, it's going well on the Olive Front at least
On the Holly front it's a little more iffy. Olive is a lot more energetic than Holly is and I'm confident that Olive chasing Holly is Olive trying to play rather than any acts of aggression (I had gotten Olive that "Peacemaker" drops from Jackson Galaxy, which really helped make her chasing less aggressive).
The problem is Holly still seems pretty petrified of Olive. Even if Olive is just standing there, Holly will routinely back down and slink away. So I'm going back to my boy JG and getting the opposite of "Peacemaker" and got Holly "Self Esteem" (which should make her more assertive and willing to stand her ground). You get quite a few drops in these things so I'm hoping that a month of Olive getting a little downer and Holly getting a little upper will get them to coexist better. I still don't need them to be all buddy buddy but I feel bad when Olive chases after Holly and she hides under the bed to get away :(
The Self Esteem drops are arriving tomorrow I believe. Peacemaker seemed to work pretty quickly so I'm hoping to see the same kind of results in the next week or two
EDIT: Also don't let the pose fool you. If you go in for pets when she's in her "Pay Attention to Me", your hand has just become The Prey in her game of "Bite the hell out of the Prey"

Yeah the amount of times I got farmed off hook and the person dead harded away from me so I took the agro and go down immediately was off the charts. And the funniest part is they don't even get the wglf token from it lmao.
Here's thing thing about bbq though, it never actually incentivized anything. You can camp and tunnel the first person out and still get all 4 stacks. 3v1 is immediately easier than a 4v1 so it's always been meta to tunnel and camp as needed.
Plus we're kind of forgetting no way out, which I think, is a even bigger incentive and stronger effect than bbq was. Imo anyways.
And another thing is a lot of killers felt like they HAD to put bbq on - old bp gain and bloodwebs we're actively worse enough to the point where it almost felt needed. I'm personally glad I don't feel obligated to run it anymore - tbh bp bonus + cakes/envelopes/pudding if you play at 100% is essentially the same result. And your bo goes further. I still have it on killers that really use it - nurse, huntress etc
Edit: forgot to enter the last part
But like on most killers bbq isn't even useful - I'd rather people not just limit themselves to 3 perks that synergize with their power + then just run bbq. Shrugs.
I used to just stand there and let the killer down me when people farmed me like that
Happened way too often that I would run the killer JUST long enough that the other guy got his stack but I was still hung out to dry completely. So I started making sure they wouldn't get their stack...
-
I found more often than not that WGLF just meant that my ass was gonna get farmed off the hook by whoever was running it...

That is true
However, that does not mean that BHVR should not try to bridge that gap. BHVR is never going to be able to turn a bad teammate a good teammate but they can give solos the tools necessary to make a competent team rise up to a good or even great team.
