I stopped really caring a few weeks ago with the last PTB, but this won’t cost me much. I know how companies work. It’s obvious that someone up there is just looking at raw numbers and complaint counts, with no understanding of the big picture or the fact that the game is asymmetric. Killing the project, collecting their check, and leaving the sinking ship: that’s what they do. But I digress. T5 comments 181 views last activity

Added a new scenario to the Abandon option: After recovering or being healed from the Dying State twice, the option to Abandon becomes available the next time you are downed. So what: if you are downed and healed three times you can abandon the game? Seriously? Am I missing something or did they make solo-queue worse?20 comments 391 views last activity

I quote : _ Disconnection Penalties are now based on your last 20 matches played. _ Each disconnect in this set of 20 matches counts as a disconnection penalty point. _ Disconnection penalty points decrease as you play matches without disconnecting (previously decayed at the rate of 1 point per day). So if one disconnects every two matches, he gets the minimum penalty each time? Do I8 comments 421 views last activity

edit: To make this a bit more fun. I've written an app in javascript so anyone can play with the escape rate in a graphical environment. The app is at: http://www.drsoon.xyz — Original post — It shouldn't be so difficult to grasp, but apparently it is. Here are the measured escape rates offered by BHVR: These are averages.56 comments 5,654 views last activity

Yesterday, first Onryo match since forever: one (or two) teleporters. Today I get flashed trough the shack wall by a survivor behind a rock. (And I forgot to start OBS) We really need better reporting.2 comments 61 views last activity

I usually play the game in total silence with a very good headset accurate enough to let me hear a survivor breathing. But today I was only doing the rift for the event so I wasn't playing seriously. I was on Discord speaking with friends while playing as killer. After all, getting only five pallets or a few hooks is easier than winning a game.

There is this guy, a streamer I believe even if I only watch him on youtube. I've learned about him because he has 1vs1 Otzdarva a while ago. I thought he was impressive. After getting so far away he lost the famous streamer, he went back to him. The guy is always calm and respectful. Nothing seems to disturb him. And he's a great at the survivor role.

We already have an ignore list. What would you think having a follow list or something of that effect? I use the ignore list so I don't have to read posts from people that I've found incapable of reasoning, distorting meaning, attacking the poster instead of the idea, needlessly rude, … Given how polarized some discussions are, you could think that list is full but no, it's only a handful o0 comments 21 views last activity

Yet when I try to play as survivor I give up, still in the queue, after a few minutes (and a connection bonus of 75%) My killer queues are instant. I've tried many of them: my main as some I only played for the first time today. There is so much of a survivor exodus I can't get a slot.17 comments 441 views last activity

Found on this page : Survivor bots passed Flashlight training, unfortunately we found blinding killer bots was ineffective. They will now lose location prediction when blinded. There are killer bots in the main game now?22 comments 432 views last activity

When I play survivor, it's almost always solo. However a little while ago, I've played with "Discord friends", one of which had never played before. It didn't go well, obviously. The others were a bit more experienced (around 500 hours I believe). I've got thousands of hours myself. I'm afraid the streak of losses we've got in that 3 vs 1 has strongly affected my MMR.

a.k.a "aim dressing" I so often get turned into a wall when going straight, or simply hitting "wood" in the middle of nowhere (when I'm right on the survivor) that I'm wondering if something new is bugged, or if I'm encountering a new kind of cheat.7 comments 162 views last activity

Every match is different. I'm (re)discovering perks I've seldom used. I can never guess what teammates or opponents will be able to do. It's way more interesting that the normal mode. Most games are pretty chill too. (Some are absolutely not, granted, but I usually can answer in kind.)5 comments 71 views last activity

Thanks but … do you have any idea how many of these I have stored since 2019? I have only used one or two since I've started playing. Could we accelerate the web auto-spending to, say, instant? Otherwise some of us will wait for hours on that thing.5 comments 141 views last activity

I've just watched the "live". There are many new things I don't like but that one will keep me out. One of the best things of 2vs8 was to NOT have to pick-up survivors : just press a button and go on with the frenzy. Now a good team will just serial-blind the killer. yay36 comments 993 views last activity

During a recent match, a survivor has spent his time hiding from the killer. When his 3 teammates where dead, he got the hatch. Then, like the fool he was, he gloated about it in the the chat. A true facepalm moment. I wonder if, one day, he'll understand that if instead of hiding he'd took a few chases, then maybe the killer wouldn't have won. Maybe one or two more could have escaped instea19 comments 602 views last activity

If everybody has weak, small-effect, short-lived perks, it's almost like playing without anything. Any ETA solving this? The bug report currently shows "under review".2 comments 111 views last activity

So like a few days ago, EAC is giving me some error. This time I took a screenshot. Naturally, I've looked at the incriminated file and did an sha256sum of it: 5584785a9887f5159ff5f3f47b15bd42ff97039681804a84e623cfedb9aec64c pakchunk3052-Windows.utoc I asked Steam to verify the cache and after the operation, I've looked at the sha256sum again: 55845 comments 101 views last activity

So given there was a rift for it, I've played the Light-out mode, as Dredge. To avoid the ridiculous 60 seconds BT, I've simply slugged a lot. I've played maybe 15 matches. I've lost the first one (which made me decide to slug), got one draw and won all the other ones. Nobody had any fun but I've got all the collectibles so it's over. I suppose if BHVR tries to give us this mode yet again, th4 comments 112 views last activity

I've not played since the last update. I come back tonight and I got a message about files being modified. I don't even use "graphical filters" (I don't recall the name of that stuff.)

there should be a killer instinct giving their general direction. I'm kind of fed up of the games where the last two survivors hide on corners of the map dropping and picking up their item in a loop to avoid the crows . That several minutes wasted every time, first looking around the gens, then in the basement, in the lockers and finally on the border of the map. And sometimes they hide bette30 comments 2,911 views last activity

I've been on Linux for a long time and recently I've started to have issues. While playing, my window was losing focus, which was of course infuriating. Today I've found the culprit. Steam notifications popping and making the notifier window blinking was stealing focus. I've disabled any notification in Steam and got no problem anymore.

Platform: many different computers. When I try to quote someone on the forum, the first quote of a thread will often work but if then I post my reply and try to quote someone else then I'll be sent to the edit box without the quote. Steps: Quote someone. Post the reply. Quote someone else. See the text window has no quote. This is extremely annoying.0 comments 11 views last activity

I read about slugging complains. However, in my experience, most survivor prefer being slugged for minutes than the alternative. Case in point: in this match, it was clear to me this night team stood little chance against me, even if Mikaela was very good at jukes, the others lacked her experience. They had the right idea though, so at least chasing them and their attempts at misdirection was f13 comments 311 views last activity

For the past few months, I seldom had a bad word in the end game chat. I was only reminded of the existence of BMs because of the forums. Tonight, I've experienced that side. Insults, salt, called a camper or a tunneler when I did nothing of the sort. (Having a full team on death hook doesn't seem to be a factor here.) About every match ended like that.

It's not fair for the others who are still trying. As far as I'm concerned, a survivor who doesn't give up, good or bad, is getting priority for the hatch.14 comments 241 views last activity

A lot of interesting stuff, with a couple of remarks: "Hook Stages" : the first thing that comes to mind isn't "yay, more time against campers" but "gens-before-friends is now more powerful". "Midwich" : Improved verticability, sure, but also offering a neat hiding spot. I liked these walls closed for a reason. On the positive side, fixing scratch marks is certainly good.

This mode desperately needs an MMR. Since yesterday something has changed in my matches. I'm systematically grouped with somebody who has decided to learn Huntress (and probably killer) on 2vs8. Survivors have finally found that doing gens in parallel at all costs without ever healing (aka tunneling for survivors, except this one is as easy in this mode as in 1vs4) is the way to go.

From the killer point of view, I've won all my matches where both killers were decent and lost off my matches where the other killer was beginner (tried with a friend who only knew survivor) The won matches often went down to the last gen but progressively killing survivors was too much even for the best players I've versed. The lost matches were over in a few minutes with at most three kills.0 comments 44 views last activity

And to do it, instead of playing with a random killer, I've played with a friend who has never played killer and hasn't played DbD since the Trickster was released. After we lost a few games (but still had a lot of fun) he stopped and I went back to solo-Q and resumed winning games with 7 or 8 kills. This to say: if you struggle winning 2vs8 as killer, maybe at least one of the killers lacks ex9 comments 241 views last activity

Well, at least Scorpionz was the streamer I was watching when I was learning pig back then. There are survivor and killer matches. It clearly shows how lobbies are made and how the game plays. As far as I'm concerned it answered everything I was still curious to know. The Nurse + Huntress combo seems pretty nice. (Two range killers together for the win.

Yes, yes, I know, some of you will say it's broken and it never works … Except for me, most of the time, it kind of works. (As killer, as solo Q it sucks plain and simple.) I'll get an average lobby (based both on their prestige in the 50ies and the way they play) and when I wipe them out, I get a p100 lobby that forces me to play harder.

I've finally started to play The Unknown. I've spent some bloodpoint and used a build I'm using on another killer. I expected to get my backside kicked while I'm learning its powers.

I've just versed a survivor who had some distinct advantage over his teammates as I had a lot of trouble finding him. Basically all the teammates had been hooked twice when I finally found him. Iron Will + Lightweight + Premonition were the key perks. The fourth was Weaving Spiders.
