  • Thank you.

    It did work on PS5. Switched pöattform last night (I missed every skillcheck on console - I sucked so bad). But still no progress on my Steam Account.

    Bb and have fun!

  • My bank is down. Has been since 2pm GMT. Here I am - laundry done, dishes done, husdband and daughter were sent to the forest. Now I am all alone and still can't play dbd.... because I am with a bank that can't get things straight since 5 hours...

    I don't know why they don't drop at the same time but I know as someone who buys the DLC off Steam and not off the ingame store that you could buy the characters from the ingame store as soon as the update went live but had to wait until later in they day to buy off Steam. Happy to be wrong this time around.

    No - you most probably are right. I saw this with the All Kill Chapter during a stream. One bought the Chars with AC but the other one was not able to buy the chapter itself. Now that I read that, I remember.

  • Thank you. I will do the laundry and the dishwasher so there will be no interruptions after.

  • Yes, I do get that new "System". But now let´s say I have Dwight on 50 - and my maxed out chars have PT on tier 3. ANy ne Char they throw at us with the next Chapter will not be able to get PT Tier 3 as Dwight did not make it to P3.

    So for now, putting my BP into prestiging does not seem to be the best idea for me. I´d rather put them into chars I "like" and get them those perks I would not get after the update due to the new Tier/Prestige Symbiosis....

    I do see the advantage for my Killer´s perks. But as I play my Survivors as SKINS and not because of the perks they come with, the new system is not so satisfying for Survivor Mains, I guess...

    We´ll see. I was never good at Math - maybe I threw my calculations.

    Have a nice weekend and stay save!

    How about they make the hook mechanic like that of Pyramid Head's cage? If killers stay near a certain distance from the hook for a certain duration, the hook and the hooked survivor just teleport to somewhere else. This mechanic, however, will stop once the exit gates are powered (or opened) because at that time it's reasonable to camp.

    Hi. So this is how I approach the camping / tunneling skill play. Crossplay off. Steam only. Pre-Game Chat: "Hi! If we run into a camper and tunneler killer (again), PLS leave me on the hook, do your gens and get out. I will stay on the hook as long as possible. DO NOT COME AND GET ME. If I am the second last to hook and there is more than 1 gen left I will kill myself as soon as I see you on the furtherst gate or at an hatch spawn location. I am more than happy to die on my first hook - believe me! Do not give them extra BPs. Altruismus kills!"

    I run Kindred and Camaraderie. Just in case. Never ever any second chance perks.

    I can't even begin to tell you, how many killers are calling me so many "unnice" things in post-game chat. Like I was throwing the match for them. That they hardly got any bloodpoints. This is not the way they wanted or expected the match to go. They will come and hunt me down next match. Which totally makes no sense as for the above lines, but hey, I guess this is how they see the world.

    Well, listen up killers: we don't want the matches to go this way either. We play games for fun. So the match I died on my hook and you kept hitting me over and over again while I am on hook and shaking your head at me because it took you 2 gens to get me and the last gens just keep flying was not fun at all for me either. But it felt satisfying seeing 3 or at least 2 mates escape.

    Want to know a secret: when I run into the same killers again, they either ditch the lobby or dc (even days after) and tell me their opinion in post game chat. So at least some of them adapted to "my playstyle and my mechanic".

    Funf fact: Everyone in Pre Game Chat likes my idea on camping and we all agree to rather die than give extra bp away.

    Now all of you Killers, who see this strategy against your legit playstyle: in case me meet, this is what my legit playstyle looks like.

    I hope whoever made it to the end of this post has a lovely weekend and maybe I'll see you in the fog (German server).


    Bye, Linda

  • Thank you but I did before asking.

    The clock symbol vanishes for a milli-second and poof -comes back.

    I'll wait til tomorrow.

    Good hunting!

  • I'll get back to you and post my ID - so you should be able to find me and we can have a chat. I am away over the weekend.

    Bis dann, Linda

  • Well, welcome to Vienna!

    The city with the grumpiest people but also the most livable City from 2009 to 2019. After that obviously we lost our server connection to dbd and puff - there goes our status. Just kidding. About the server thing, not about the grumpiness unfortunately.

    Besides that, let me know if there is anything I can help you with. And I mean ANYTHING. I am more than glad to help as I had to work on the Canary Islands, Florence / Italy, Ilse of Man, NY and South Africa over the last years and I know how out of place one can feel in the first months.

    Servus then I guess,

    Linda

  • ok - thank you.

    now i got it ;o))

  • Thank you guys and girls for all those suggestions and your very much appreciated input.

    What I am absolutely not happy with is bringing everybody to P3/1 ==> this means I am running around with one perk and like 3 usable items I got out of the bloodweb at level 1.

    There is 1 more question: from what I learned here is that there will be a clean slate / reset at the beginning of the new system so I am loosing my whole inventory (items / addons / offerings). Correct?

    I guess I´ll just invest in my favorite chars (until I have them completely maxed out) as I would have done without this system beeing changed and see if there is anything I could have done better.

    I could not care less, if in postchat plp see, which new rank I am in - that´s like WoW ==> laugh at my Rogue if you feel like it but keep running if you meet my Elemental Shaman.

    To be fair you will never see me playing certain Killers / Survivors so if they like get ignored during the reset I could not care less.


    A big THANK YOU to all your good folks out there - sending best wishes from my side of the pond,

    Linda

  • Thank you - I was wondering because they named it diffenrently - thank you - bb

  • @Mandy said:

    This is mentioned in the patch notes, there's an engine update so the download is bigger than we would like as a result. However, the game is now being compressed differently and as such will take up less space on your disk.

    Today´s WoW patch was 50MB - what a difference.

    But good to hear I was not that wrong to consider it a bit larger than usual.


    Cheers!

  • @InsaneCoaster said:

    Yeah, above comment is basically right. Even though typical stretched res is stretching the horizontal resolution the opposite way to which you are effectively stretching it from 16:9, it'll probably either give black bars (as above suggests) or decrease your FOV. I'm not sure if the recent 'fix' of stretched res works for stretching both ways or not, but either way it'll look bad and one of these two things will occur.

    If you're thinking of buying a 21:9 monitor primarily for DBD, I wouldn't recommend it personally.

    Thank you. I also play Divion 2 or other games that support 21:9. I don't actually know what to do. I will get a 21:9 and see what it looks like with DbD. Worst case is to switch monitors if it looks worse than on my 27 monitor. And I am also curious to see how WoW looks on the 21:9....

    Thank both of you.

    It's really hard to predict who the upcoming killers will be, I definitely would not have guessed Ringu, Resident Evil or Silent Hill as chapters for instance. But I guess if the anniversary killer is another licensed one the front runners are probably (in no particular order)

    • Five Nights at Freddy's - I never played the game but it's obviously super popular and I don't see a reason why it wouldn't work
    • It - Pennywise could be a fantastic killer. Although I have a feeling if they were going to do this they probably would have done it around when the movies came out for the marketing synergy.
    • Jason - Apparently some of the legal issues around Friday the 13th were cleared up last year or something? 🤷‍♂️ I'm sure Behaviour wanted Jason in the game from the outset so he's always in the running. (Although it'd be interesting to see how they differentiate him from Trapper mechanically.)
    • Alien - A little more of a dark horse but the Alien would fit right into the slot Demogorgon sadly has left vacant in the store of a monstrous bestial killer. The hitch would be Alien is owned by Marvel and Disney and it wouldn't shock me if they kept Alien in reserve for Alien specific video games.
    • The Shining - Not so much for the killer, but I could definitely see Behaviour interested in adding The Overlook Hotel as a realm with a map for the Hotel and a map for the Topiary maze
    • Slenderman - This is a popular request, I could see it happening
    • Child's Play - Victor and Sadako being in the game as mechanically practical raises the hope that they could get Chucky in the game if they worked out the licensing.
    • Candyman - A popular request. Again, though, it feels like they would have tried to add him when they did the remake.
    • Various classic horror movie killers - They could also go in the direction of the classics like a vampire, a werewolf, a mummy, etc. Some of them aren't even under copyright, as long as they aren't doing the Universal Studios versions.

    Among ones I'd like to see but I'm more doubtful of

    • Phantasm - This could be a great chapter. Tall Man with his floating pinballs of death, the mortuary as the map, I'd love to see this. It's not as well known a franchise though outside of horror movie buffs.
    • Supernatural - I'd love a Supernatural pack with Sam and Dean Winchester and a Demon as the killer. It feels like if they did it though they would have done it while the show was on the air.
    • Jeepers Creepers - The Creeper would be a fun killer but there's too much baggage associated with this franchise, I doubt it would ever happen.
    • The Thing - I would LOVE to see The Thing as a chapter, it's a fantastic killer and the Antarctic research base would be a cool map (no pun intended). And a shapeshifting killer would be neat because, even if the survivors aren't easily fooled into thinking it's a survivor, it would still have inherent Undetectability when it's mimicking them which is already solid ability on its own. However, I suspect they already internally played around with a killer that mimics survivors and nixed the idea in testing (I would not at all be surprised based on their trailer if one of the original concepts for Legion was exactly a killer that appears to be a survivor.) But man, am I rooting for this one!
    • Final Destination - One of my favorite horror franchises, a "killer" that is the environment trying to kill survivors just sounds thematically pretty awesome. But I have no idea how they'd pull it off mechanically.

    If it was "Bobby's Boys" one of them would have teased a little bit - most likely Jensen.... but my heart would melt to see them "in action" again after 15 seasons.

    I've noticed a pattern that my toughest matches of the day are always my first few.

    Does anyone else experience this? Can it really be as simple as MMR is recalculated daily and your first is against 'anyone' in the queue?

    To be fair, it is the exact opposite wirh me playing survivor. I win my first 5 to 6 matches. And then it gets late and I find myself with killers on tournament level, where every single action they take turns out just the way they expected. One of them I thought must have been cheating. Then I saw his Nick and checked his TTV - he is a GOD. And I don't know, why I was thrown in a match with him. I am 800 hours in the game but far, far from his level. And I was more or less the last one standing with almost 40k BP in the end. Just imagine what my teammates must have felt like (solo q). They were ashen or bronze level. At least I was gold 2 or so.

    I am on (West-?) European Servers. So might be because there are less players. And since it was free on Epic I turned crossplay off and have not turned it on again - thx for that btw - because I got matches with survivors with 1 or 2 slots....

  • What of you buy Steam Store Credits via the Steam homepage and then try to buy the Cells? Continue until you finalize the payment. Maybe it just says HKD in this sage of the purchase amd switches back to RUB in the last step. Or you might want to try VPN, where you can set contry / region manuelly. Maybe this helps...

  • I am 45 year old woman. If gender is also important in that poll. Plus I LOVE Horrogames. I love gaming in general. My frustration level is quite low, but I really stay polite in post game chat, if Inhave to say anything at all...

    And I only play survivor, to "get out of this s h i t", which most horrorgames is about.

  • @Pizzasauce said:

    So we all agree 8 is crazy, right?

    To be fair. My daughter is 8, turning 9 and she grew up in a gramer houshold - don't get me wrong, we do all the outdoorstuff, but on rainy days or in the evening, when there isn't much time left, she plays Bears can't drift , Paw Pateol, Lego Star Wars, Harry Potter or Catleateral Damage. Or she plays with one of my Sims households and she has a lvl 4 mage in wow. But she can hardly control the Mage or the Sims (click, lock target, move, select spell or action, quickly adjust to new situation, counterspell, repair a broken sink, don't let the food burn, finish homework, shower, go to work, find quest area...). So if this isn't an especially gifted kid that does not have any other hobbies, I guess he was just "kidding"....

    Or my daughter just sucks at Wow and Sims, but is doing fine with her games in her age-range.

    All these perks and body blocks why even do that it makes zero sense.

    Was his name BEST? Because I ran into him quite often lately and we just decided to ignore his camping...

    We even agreed to it in Pre-Chat.

    So as sad as it is - rush gens and get out. Only works if person on the hook does not try to escape and struggles til the end.

  • Where they marked as crossplay? Because if so, they most likely came from EPIC... I had this a few times in a row as survivor (iri 2 / purple perks). First only one which we could carry sometimes even until the exitgates. But the later the night, the more new crossplay players we got. After 6 or so matches I diabled crossplay. And will not go back to it until this is fixed.

    To BHVR: have you thought this through and if so decided this was the best to come up with? Well then ...gg wp to you *facepalm*

    What...what even happened that game?

    Nobody got much BP at all.

    I realized tjat they were new. A Laurie got grabbed of the gen by a Bobba. I bodyblocked the hook and thought so would the Claude next to me while there would only be a M2 comics. But they all ran away. The Laurie did not get hooked. I got hooked. Nobody came for me or for eachother. They litterally failed every 2nd Check (watched the entire match). The Claude hid with 2 crows in the closet.

    At first we only got 1 in the solo-Q. Witch we could carry to a certain point. Then 2 and so on. I think this must habe been the 4th or 5th match with 2 or more EPIC newbies (my guess). I played another 5 or 6 matches last night without crossplay and the only one died in was with a Bobba hiding hid aura in the basement and started snowballing.

    But those matches were soooooo much better.

    I leave it disabled.
