The PTB has a timer on the Archives, meaning it's closing in January of next year. What's… the point, though? The Archives not being updated with more challenges I get but removing existing content just because… you can?? I need an explanation on the decisionmaking, here, please.9 comments 133 views last activity

In the seven months between the Stranger Things release and today, we've had 49 shrines of secrets - 25 from the 6 and a bit months outside of anniversary, and 21 from the anniversary daily shrines. In those 49 shrines, Dustin, Eleven and Henry's 9 perks have not appeared a single time. However, since January, characters that you are given for free regardless of platform have had their adept pe1 comments 50 views last activity

It was confirmed as part of the series of attempted apologies that the reward structure for the Black Banquet with 27 cakes per prestige was not only intended, but outright the goal moving forward for event reward structures, and that the 9th anniversary reward structure (which, to be clear, was a gigantic dip below the 8th anniversary reward structure) was too high and needed to be deconstruct6 comments 91 views last activity

So we've learned today that now, you get exactly 14 cakes per prestige. At specific levels, no less. Because we know that a prestige is about 1.1 million bloodpoints, a quick division shows that its nearly 79k bloodpoints for one cake. This means that, if you're the only one bringing a cake (which won't happen right now, but will happen as the event ends and people stop throwing out cakes e1 comments 81 views last activity

Even with Diminishing Returns, full luck builds can give at least 3 self-unhooks 58% of the time - and for at least 2 its 88% of the time. On top of this, luck builds promote uninteractive play, outright denying killer pressure and leading to them feeling like they're fighting the game's systems rather than the players themselves. It's long past time Luck was deleted - if a self-unhook isn't5 comments 121 views last activity

For lots of reasons, I think bugfixing killers should be a higher priority than it is right now. Firstly, because some killers just feel SO rough with the bugs that plague them. Houndmaster is a great example - but various snug bugs continue to make her feel really awkward to play, even though she's better than her release window was (which is to say she was basically unplayable) Secondly, It's5 comments 61 views last activity

Given they spent time making this killer, they presumably designed her with an inbuilt, intended counterplay strategy for her kit. As the community has failed to find anything close to suggest the intended counterplay actually exists, could we get an explanation from the team as to what we're actually meant to be doing?19 comments 851 views last activity

With the advent of antislug measures, killers looking to secure adepts or other similar 4k achievements are stuck between a rock and a hard place. They can either slug, buy themselves a one-time 90s window to find and kill the other survivor, or they can kill their 3rd and hope that RNG favors them by giving them a good hatch spawn and good gates. With that in mind, reducing Adepts and simila4 comments 71 views last activity

Despite issues early into this 2v8 cycle, Play While You Wait and Estimated Queue Time have both been two hugely welcome additions. PWYW especially is splendid in helping what turned me off from 2v8 - a gigantic killer queue you have to do something else during to sit through. 1v4 shouldn't always need this feature of course, but in instances where a role has a queue over 5-10 mins or so (like3 comments 121 views last activity

I, like many other players, like collecting time-limited event offerings, especially Anniversary Cakes, as a way of showing our dedication to a given character and the game as a whole through the years. This often means players want to set aside the last of any given event offering, so they don't lose it. My suggestion is to add a way to "lock" this last event offering, so it won't be used wh0 comments 11 views last activity

Of my four most recent mains, I've had to avoid playing three of them thanks to overbuffing that has left them in a state where playing them feels deeply unrewarding - why would I play a killer on which I'm guaranteed victory, is my mindset. Of those three, two - Houndmaster and Singularity - were buffed not in response to a matter of weakness, but a kit riddled with bugs for the former, and rid11 comments 181 views last activity

I understand that stacking haste and hinder is a concern as more of these perk types are added to the game. But, at the same time, a lot of people like running stacked hastes or hinders together - Clown and Singularity especially are beneficiaries of Rapid Brutality paired with their own in-house Haste effects. To… compromise, somewhat- they should cap Haste and Hinder amounts. To what specific0 comments 31 views last activity

The patch notes don't say anything about a reduction in % chance or making them hidden. They for sure aren't hidden on live, and both played against me so far has worked. A friend told me both of these were coming, and I was expecting them to be this patch. But 2 is a tiny sample size and maybe it is in this patch, so I want to check if those changes made it in or not?1 comments 42 views last activity

And buff Vecna in other ways to compensate. When I say "give it a windup" i mean make it not take a healthstate until its been out for a certain amount of time - less than a second, but more than the average human reaction time of about a quarter of a second. I don't really care what ways you buff him in compensation, to be honest. I just think that Flight of the Damned should function l3 comments 81 views last activity

If this is a bug I will happily make a bug report about it, but if it's not please fix gens spawning within this close of a spread. I get that Hawkins is a small map, and I get that much of the map is locked off behind guaranteed single-gen spawns, but come on. There's no reasonable expectation to ever get these gens if the killer is running a reasonable amount of slowdown and has a brain. F1 comments 21 views last activity

During Demogorgon's removal from DBD, he recieved little in the way of adjustments, with the only one being just a few months before his restoral to the game. With that in mind, please rework or nerf the effect of the Add-On "Original Pain" ASAP. This is an Add-On used to blatantly bypass basekit antitunnel measures by immediately deep wounding a fresh unhook that you then re-down to put back2 comments 81 views last activity

Feel free to use this as a guidebook on why you BM! My question is: what do I have to do to not deserve it? I'm seemingly belittled by my opponents when I win, when I lose, when I run a weak build, a sweaty build, a low tier killer, a high tier killer, a chase-oriented setup and one that focuses on lockdown, on both sides at all times of day. Clearly you are all BMing becuase I have done somet4 comments 82 views last activity

The playerbase has shown outright with all iterations of chaos shuffle that if you give them the tiniest avenue to minmax the fun out of an event queue they will jump at the opportunity. We can't randomise offerings because some killers have very transformative addons that require specific setups to function. So remove them. All of them.0 comments 21 views last activity

Snug has a million inconveniences that add up to an overall very frustrating time when playing Houndmaster. Here's some examples, people reading this can feel free to add more inconveniences when using the killer. (Please don't add any balance suggestions unrelated to this clunkiness, instead just add ways in which this killer feels clunky to control, as I want to keep this thread focused.)6 comments 332 views last activity

To be clear, I think the Void granting an additional power to the killer is very fun. But as it stands, the Captured Haunts can be used in tandem with an M1 as an instadown, a means of camping and tunneling and can be forced into hits with certain powers that keep a survivor otherwise engaged. With that in mind, all that I ask is that this isn't the power you give to Killers in future editions6 comments 311 views last activity

This'll be the first event where I am actively playing DBD but won't be finishing the tome. Games are samey and boring with no chases. The novelty of a game where you're basically just handed grabs wears off fast. In addition, the rift is exceedingly unfair if you don't own Dracula (I'm saying this as someone who does).

I've mained Singularity since release, and have a few hundred hours logged in actual games on him. I'm by no means the most skilled or most experienced hux player in existence, and I'm sure more skilled and more experienced hux players will weigh in on the changes in their own time and in their own ways, but I wanted to give my outlook on the changes we saw in today's Dev Post.

Step 1 : Play a match of survivor, and work two seperate gens. Step 2 : Trigger Eruption on the lower-progressed gen in the moments before the final generator is completed. Step 3 : Complete the final generator. Step 4 : Notice the lower-progressed gen is still workable.

Finish a match (mine was an 11-hook 3k as nurse on midwich with the survivors sending me there using Mary's Letter.) When you would reach the endgame screen, instead be met with just the killer moving through the field (as seen below), no endgame info can be selected, and the Escape key doesn't pull up the relevant menu.

Clip to accompany this post, I'm talking about especially egregious situations like the one below https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ou249We7K48 That hit likely looked like it hit on Wesker's screen, but for me I had zero way of actually countering him because he was bounding towards a spot I wasn't in - it punishes me further by dragging me back to the place his game thinks1 comments 31 views last activity

Whilst the new profile icon and banner system was neat, the total lack of cosmetic options on release has made the feature feel monstrously underwhelming on release. If you didn't purchase a chucky cosmetic you currently have one (1) cosmetic option, the campfire.

The idea behind the Pip system is to reward or punish players in line with how much they contributed to that individual match. If you do well, you get one or two pips along the 85-pip track to get Iridescent 1. If you do poorly, you either lose a pip (depip) or gain net zero pips (safety pip). Except that that's not how pipping works. The pip system, as it currently stands, rewards arbitrary me1 comments 272 views last activity

When obtaining the Twitch Drops, the 1 hour reward is listed as "Hatch Micro Playset" - see below. However, when in-game, the item is instead listed as "Creepy Pocket Spa" - also see below.

Specifically either disable Alien being able to exit Control Stations right next to a hooked survivor or enable the ability for Dredge to teleport to Lockers near hooked survivors (preferably the former - I don't think being able to camp a hook without a Terror Radius or visible model entirely basekit is fair in the slightest.)

Specifically the Locker pictured below, next to the window highlighted by Windows of Opportunity. There is an equal-sized space on the other side to place a locker, and having it there instead of right next to a vault prevents vault actions being confused for entering lockers, and vice versa.2 comments 11 views last activity

As of current, there's a solid chance one of the survivors in my games will throw a temper tantrum at some percieved unfairness and give up outright. DC Bots are coming but realistically they only solve one form of giving up, and the other - Hook Suiciding, remains to be entirely unpunished, at least in the short term.

I originally intended to post this as a result of Discordance, but it applies to others - Call of Brine, Surveillance, Machine Learning, etc - the issue is that any perk that makes a gen yellow for the killer becomes much harder to discern during events, when a generator's aura is swapped to a bright orange.

It's clear that many survivors, upon being the first one down and regardless of the state of the game, decide it's over and they don't want to play anymore, so they take the 3 4% unhook attempts and let go after hitting second to both disconnect from the match, but avoid the DC Penalty for doing so. This allows them to not only ruin a game, but also ruin a game entirely unpunished. Therefore, som4 comments 71 views last activity
