You are complaining about the green orb being visible, but you forget that its a small orb so you can use a line of the scenario to hide it and mind game, or you can use the speed to fake going one direction and then going the other when the survivor tries to dodge, then follow the survivor with audio and drop it. Thank the buffs they announced it's going to be much easier to do that. Yes, sometimes Insta-drop the ward is going to be the best play, but it's just another strong option.
Cant wait for him. Well done BHVR

As you know, BHVR just released the plans for the new chapter after PTB feedback (they ignored 95% of feedback about the knight but ok) and with that, we have a buff for hex: darkness revealed.
Now, will make survivors scream every 25 seconds.
So let's make a little bit of math. With a 5 tokens thrill of the hunt, takes 28 seconds to clean a hex totem.
That means, that while you have all those tokens, nobody can clean hexes as long as face the darkness is up since the scream will presumably make it impossible.
The only solution would be to
1- Heal the affected survivor (or let the killer down him) and then clean the thrill totem as quickly as possible.
2 - Break a dull totem so the time for cleansing is now about 23 seconds, so you can wait for the scream just beside the totem and then clean it.
I thought it was an interesting idea and I wanted to share it. That way I don't have to think about why survivors can still see the knight's orb :)
I just realized that you don't scream on the killer terror radius, so there is that too
-
They are doing this that way because they didn't have the time to implement anything else by release date. I hope they make it so you can despawm them with CTRL
-
Depends on the killer:
Nurse, spirit, hag, blight, freddy, twins... yea maybe they can win in a balanced map if they play better. But don't spect that from Myers or trapper
-
It doesn't matter if its LGTB. The only think that matters are those 3 useless perks that they are gonna give us.

We, as LGBTQ+ people, do not exist to educate homophobes. We aren't encyclopedias to use to "change" the minds of people who are against our inclusion in society. We have better things to do with our free time than "conversate" with people who are, quite literally, against our existence.
It's so tiring to constantly be told we should be civil and respectful with those would vote against our rights and criticize us at every opportunity. The responsibility of education is on the individual alone. There are COUNTLESS resources people can use online, in libraries, at social events etc to become more aware of LGBTQ+ issues and change their homophobic beliefs.
1- If you dont want to talk, then I dont know what u are doing here.
2- If you think that everyone who doesn't want a gay survivor in this game is a monster that hate your existence... as I said in my other response, you have some serious prejudices.

"Most people here think that every "I dont want a LGBT survivor" threat is because "they hate gay people". No they don't."
YES. Yes. They. Do.
That's the whole point. That's the entire problem. You're falling face first into the point and still missing it.
There's not a valid reason to be against LGBTQ+ representation in Dead by Daylight. By claiming to "understand" their reasoning you're literally just protecting homophobic ideals.
I'm not saying there is a valid reason to be againts it. I'm saying that SOME people have other reasons that pure hate. Some of them just hate gay people, for sure, but you can not prove that ALL OF THEM. Unless you know everyone of them or you can look into their hearts with some kind of magic, I'm affraid you can not tell what they really feel just by reading a few lines. I've read many posts on the topic and any of them goes something like "I DONT WANT A LGBT SURVIVOR BECAUSE I HATE THEM". Some of them are hiding their true hate behind other arguments? Yea for sure. But because you are not any kind of god you can not know it. I believe that most of those guys are just thinking about LGBT in a wrong way. They think it is something is not, they are WRONG, but they are not BAD. So we should talk to them.
If you think that ALL OF THEM are just bad people, then maybe you have some prejudice.

Perhaps you need to brush up on your reading comprehension because you tremendously missed what I was getting at.
I'll reiterate though. What you're doing is defending homophobia. You are taking time out of your day to explain why people dislike the prospect of an LGBTQ+ character rather than directly challenging those who are expressing that dislike. If your goal is to "conversate" and try to resolve the misunderstanding on the part of LGBTphobes then why are you spending your energy portraying homophobia in a way that is sympathetic and understandable?
My god.
I'm not portraying anything. I'm telling you "ey, when those guys say that, they feel that way, and they think that thing. Maybe if you talk to them with that in mind, if you address that point and you treat them as human beings and not some kind of monsters, then you can make them change".
What you said was that "I was giving them a place to express themself". And this is the dangerous part. The part when you decide if someone can express himself or not.

Let's all try to calm down a bit. I know it's a heated and sensitive topic, but attacking each other is not the way to go. That goes for both sides, we need to be welcoming to each other. This helps much more making people understand instead of trying to attack and go after them, from either sides.
I would also try to make people understand that being LGBTQIA+ is not political. My existence is not political, me attempting to get more rights for myself and others... if you want to call that political, sure, then do so, but I don't think it is, because it's about human rights.
Here is a interesting thing I learnt about media and advertisement when I was studying media design in my apprenticeship. It's also why it is important that representation exists.
When you do advertisement, many times you assess the region and you will use what the region is familiar with. Why? Because it's their "normal." This can literally mean for white people in an area they won't see pamphlets, flyers, posters, etc. with people from different countries that aren't their group of people. Before anyone wants to throw pitchforks at me: This happened at my previous workplace where I did my apprenticeship. I added pictures of diverse people of different ages and backgrounds to their advertisement material, I was given creative freedom. This included people that weren't heterosexual. I had to remove all of it and just make it their "normal." I'm not throwing pitchforks here or whatsoever. But this is a genuine thing.
Whether you believe it or not, but media, advertisements, etc. presenting only one type of thing causes that this is the "normal." This includes orientation and even people from different countries and ethnic backgrounds. During my apprenticeship I had another workplace and that previous boss rooted for me whenever I made my advertisement diverse, with different people of different backgrounds. For this job I had to got another town that's diverse in a lot of aspects, including LGBT+ and different kind of ethnic backgrounds, but generally, he was awesome. My other boss was nice too, but some customers wouldn't want anything else on their advertisement material thye didn't consider "normal."
This is why representation matters. It is sad, but we essentially need to be normalized, because for a lot of years we have not been. We're here, we exist and we're just humans too who would love to see ourselves also presented like anyone else. 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️
Well that was why I made this post. I see people fighting eachother without understanding what the other part is saying. I think that I understand why there is hate on the LGBT topic, so I pointed out. That way, the next time someone is talking to a guy hating this representation, he will understand why does the other guy feels that way. If you want to convince someone, first you need to understand what he is saying. Most people here think that every "I dont want a LGBT survivor" threat is because "they hate gay people". No they don't. They have other reasons to reject it, and because I think those reasons are wrong and are very easy to debate, then I just told everybody "ey, instead of calling them homofobic, try to explain them that they are not understanding this or that".

How you got any of that from what I said is honestly laughable but please, continue with your hyperbolic soliloquy on "authoritarianism" instead of actually addressing my point.
Your point was that I was defending them because I was giving them a chance to conversate, so yeah I think I perfectly addressed your point. Maybe you don't understand what I said because you don't understand how dangerous you point was.

Your first line is correct but that isn't what you're doing here.
You ARE defending them. You are GIVING a platform for people to express openly homophobic ideals under the guise of a "conversation" and "understanding". When you see something doing wrong you call them out on it, not write multiple posts sympathizing why why they might feel that way.
Oh yea I was waiting for that. Because seeing someone as a human being and talking to them is something horrible. If they have an opinion you consider is bad they should be silence. Because instead of letting bad ideas come out to light and then pointing and them and telling them "NO YOU ARE WRONG" we should ban them from everywhere.
Instead of givingthem the chance to change their opinions and talk to us, we should ban them because we are the gods of truth.
Instead of studying and understanding those ideas, we should just ban everyone talking about it
Instead of letting bad people show up so we know who they are, we should let them lurk into an echo chamber so their ideas keep growing up, like worms in the shadows.
And, of course, everyone with a bad idea should not have the chance to express it. Because all animals are equal but some are more equal than others. And I guess that you will tell everyone else what is a bad or a good idea, and you will decide who can or can not express themself in public.
Your authoritarianism is terrifyng.

Literally in the post I quoted:
"Scottish woman with a prosthetic arm".
He has a problem with a Scottish woman with a prosthetic arm in his trailer for COD. That's literally what he said.
Well to be honest I only read the part where u said "Sorry, why should we leave our politics out of *our* game?". So my response was to that statment.

You are defending them, that is the implication here.
Just becauase you understand someones point you are not defending them. If you dont understand their point, then you can not talk to them. If you understand why they hate this, then you can have a conversation about why they are wrong. If you dont understand them, then the only thing you can do is fight. And I dont like fighting others, I like understanding their points of view and talking to them.

If you (rightly) believe that LGBTQ+ identities aren't political then what was the point in this entire thread? Why are you defending those who are politicizing people's simple existence?
If you read carrefully you will see that I didnt defend anyone. I said that because some pople feel that way and then they are hating on the new dlc. Thats why the title goes "Why all the hate...". I'm just doing this post because some other posts say that "half of this community is homofobic", and I think they are not, but they have been manipulated to believe LGTB is something that it is not.

Sorry, why should we leave our politics out of *our* game?
I think that when someone says that "we should leave politics out of our games", is not talking about politics in CoD or MGS. Have you ever seen some of those Hollywood celebrities telling people what they should vote??? Well, I think that this is not okay.
I love economics, history, and politics. And yea having it in my games is awesome. But when that game tells you "if you dont vote this or that then you are a bad person", then we have a problem.

@Rizzo said:
People's identity and existence is not something political, it's literally their life, and if they want representation in a videogame they love, then they deserve it.
It's not a political statement, it's giving part of the community something they want and deserve.

"Politicians from all the world use the LGBT flag on their campaings as an evil way to get votes, so maybe all this people just don't want DbD to become political. I know BHVR wont do that but you have to understand that a lot of players use this great game as a way to live in another fun and fascinating reality." (quote from your OP)
Not one point did you say "SOME POLITICIANS ARE USING."
Well well well.
At first I was going to start with something like "looks like schools in north america are even worst than they are here in Spain, because you cant understand a 10 lines text". But English si not my first lenguage, so I will just assume that you missunderstand me because I can not explain my point in a proper way. I will try to do it again and I'm sure that you will understand we are defending the exact same thing.
When I say:
"Politicians from all the world use the LGBT flag on their campaigns as an evil way to get votes"
I think that I'm very clearly saying that some politicians use this simbols as a way to manipulate people, taking advantage of people's suffering and hopes in an evil way (I used the "evil" word to point at it) to get power for themselves, even when they dont give a ######### about LGTB people.
That's what I mean when I talk about LGTB and political stuff. I know being gay or lesbian or trasgender has nothing to do with politics. But I also know that politicians are using this sensitive topic in their advantage. For example, here in Spain, if you are LGTB but you are right wing, you will be harrased by some left wing activists. The same people that carry the LGTB flag harrasing gay people because they don't think the same way they do. I know a guy that was spit in college because he was gay while carrying a right wing flag in his bagpack. I think this is repulsive, but sadly its a pretty common thing. And because this is pretty common (if this is like that in Spain and South America, don't pretend this is not the case in your contry), SOME people are creating a FALSE correlation between this two things.
Thats why when SOME people see the LGTB flag, they automatically think about politics. And that's why SOME players are affraid of it.
I didnt even say that this was my case, but because I have empathy and those things I think that this is the way some players feel.
I think that a lot of people are falsely manipulated to believe that LGBT is a political thing when IT IS NOT. But sadly politicians don't care about whats right or wrong. "What does LGBTQ has to do with politics". Nothing, but sadly politicians dont care. They will use it to get votes if they can, the same way they will use racism, fear to terrorism, national pride... In South America some politic activists use the phrase "lo personal es politico", wich mean "personal things are political things". Absolutley terrifing, I know.
So that was my hole point. Many people FALSELY believe that LGTB is a political thing (when it is not), and that's why they don't want it in their games. Im sure that BHVR will do a nice job creating an interesting character that has nothing to do with all that political #########, so our LGBT buddys (and everyone else :D) will get a lot of fun with a character they can relate with, and they will have a nice place to scape from all this political ######### we are living right now.
-
I don't think nobody cares about it. But many players are concern about them giving us a boring low tier killer and 6 boring useless perks BUT WE ARE INCLUSIVE!!!!!!

Resident Evil Chapter because of their 25 years anniversary.
I HOPE so much for the tall Vampire Lady from RE8 aka Lady Dimitrescu. But I know it will not happen because she is not an iconic character yet AND RE8 is not out yet eventhough a cool publicity.
I bet on Licker or Tyrant aka MR X
Its going to be on the 5 year aniversary (this or the walking dead).
I hope that it is some kind of grey alien (because an easter egg from the reworked autoheaven realm). Im hopping him to have a power similar to the old freddy. Damm I miss him a lot.
-
Maybe the next killer or the new survivor perks need that space (we will see next week)
-
Billy and blight
-
To be fair they are working on this "early game feature" that has evolve in something more. Maybe they are balancing things with that on mind. I just hope it doesn't take a year to come.
-
Where the ######### is plagues buff devs
-
We will get ptb next week 99%
-
Too fast at the beggining of the game. Survivors should have more objectives to complete in order to scape. Then it would be funnier for both sides.
-
Ghostboy is better, but mayers is more easy.
Gostboy more fun 100%
-
What's your philosophy when deciding the new killers that you are bringing on??
-
No you can not stop an infinite with doc
-
What rituals??
-
Depending on the killers power
-
Well It 2 just came out, you can beat your ass that It is comming
-
I dont unserstand why everyone can reveal him. Maybe if only the survivor being stalked could reveal him... Also 30 seconds CD is the most stupid thing in the game.
-
Ghostface is a really good killer, but he takes a lot of skill. If you wanna invest time in a killer wich looks bad but hes actually strong, GF is your pick. Also, has some good perks. I mean, furtive chase is bullshit, but the other 2 are good.
Bubba is really bad, but theres a rework comming in some months, and all his perks are really good.

I’d like to see some character POVs. How’s Dwight’s self confidence in the face of being the “leader?” Would Nea rather be in the US than in the Entity’s realm? Does Bill ponder the fate of Zoey, Louis and Francis a lot? Is Feng frustrated by the language barrier?
Adding to that, I’d like to see character interactions, or at least some characters thoughts on other characters (or at the very least the return of the Baker quotes). Do Kate and Jeff ever talk music? Do Claudette and Jake swap survivalist tips? Do Bill and Tapp swap war stories? Do the teens like Laurie, Quentin, Steve and Nancy ever discuss school?
Heck bring it to killers as well. How does Freddy feel about being subservient? Do the Legion get to see each other? Do any of the killers feel any regret? Do any of them let survivors escape purposefully, like the Pig?
Thats the kinda stuff I’d like to see.
Just this pleas devs

Its amazing how you talk like knowing something and you just say one stupid thing after another lol.
Ignoring the troll, for me every killer need a buff except nurse billi spirit hag and maybe huntress. You can argue about freddie and mayers being well balanced and maybe we can get an agreement.

@Hoodied said:
He is strong now if you use his power differently than you think
Use his power to find survivors
But he might, and I hope its not a status effect
If finding survivors were a strong power then doc would be high rank. And guess what. Hes not. He needs buffs. Reduce the spoting distance, reduce the cooldown, and make him M1 survivors without loosing al the stalking on them.
-
Yes they will
-
Tofu and another streamer are working with them for consulting, so maybe they are fixing things before the ptb rage. Remember the Ghostrafe ptb lol. Also, I think that they will bring more changes and buffs to other killers, so lets see.
-
Freddie is my boi. I dont know why are you saying plague. I mean I love her but shes just an human with a cool puke. Looks like ghosts are more powerfull

I think that its not about the gen time, but about the game time. They have a late game task (the door) and a mid game task (generators). We need an early game task and maybe another mid game task.

What are you talking about, Plague is not as slow as huntress, can injure several people at once, throw over obstacles AND has quicker cooldown AND does not have to "reload" hatchets... Corrupt purge is very very good, but sadly survivors deny you this power easily
Thats exactly what Im talking about. Ive p3 her playing only herself and I think that survivors need more reasons to clean. I think being oblivious is the perfect thing, as if they 4 are sick, then they have a hard deal

- Screw the top players. The top players are not representative of the entire player base. This is NOT an e-sport. It's not Overwatch with millions on the line between two equal teams. The entire player base matters, new and old.
- Legion was a broken, toxic, ######### killer when he was released, full of exploits and bs. He deserved the entire rework.
Im afraid that this is not true. You dont need to be the 0.001% to know that half of the killer rooster is useless.

As the title says, I've been on (yet another) break from the game.... not terribly long, just a few weeks this time.
I usually stick around the forums to keep up on info and chapter releases even when on a break. (my last break lasted about 6 months)
I've been growing more and more tired of the survivor side of this game... it's gotten less and less fun as time has gone on, and at this point I have decided that outside of KYF I likely won't ever play survivor again.
it's my understanding that the last time we recieved "survival rates" from the devs, that across all ranks, the survival rate was below 50%. It's also my understanding that those stats were built during a time that MoM was still an unfair perk and before the EGC was implemented.
with those two changes alone, I'm forced to believe that the survival rate HAS to have plunged even further... and from my own personal experience playing the game... I rarely ever survive.
Once I get a few friends to get the game then I can enjoy KYF, but as it is, killer is too easy (outside red ranks) and its filled with toxic little shits who come here to whine about every little thing survivors have and for some reason, the devs have been listening.
healing nerfs, stealth nerfs, aura reading nerfs... meanwhile killers finally have a perk to help counter gen rush and they still keep whining that it won't be enough.
if you keep beating survivors down you're going to end up really hurting your own playerbase and queue times... your stranger things bump won't last forever...
(if someone has verifiable info to prove my assumption on the abysmal survival rates wrong, I'd love to see it... but as is it just seems like this game has become a kill simulator for online trolls and bullies)
What the hell do u think this game is? No mans sky? Of course is hard to survive. Have you seen Nightmare om elm street? Or halloween?? Maybe you should ask for more rewards, wich is a fair thing. If Im not wrong, they are changin this (check the roadmap Im pretty sure that its there). Also, notice that a killer can kill 3 survivors and still don't pip.

To get healed in a Locker you need to spend 14 seconds on a Totem first. And need to find a locker.

it's about telling the survivors when a stealth killer is using his stealth, thus making them look around even more than usual. Which isn't very stealth-like now is it?
No yu are wrong. Those are 2 separate status effects

Its sad because healing is one of the main tools to slow the game down, but then they have to leave other perks I guess....

This killer is probably the most balance killer they have made and you have no idea what youre talking about

I assumed that he meant during the destroy portal action which makes the Survivor oblivious any killer can basically stalk them as in sneak upto them.
If there is a stalk mode then I'll be even more excited to play him.
They said in the designer notes that the demo will be able to go undetectable. The obliviuos thing goes when a survivor is working on the portal.

I dont uderstand anything on this post. Do you think that being stealthy with wrait will make the survivors oblivious?? Because thats not the point at all.

Yes, but we dont know if default or addon. My sweet @Peanits pleas confirm :3
