That's fair! I have noticed a trend toward listening to community feedback more so than in the past. So, I am hopeful that they will continue to listen community feedback more and more moving forward. And, if they plan to go against an overwhelming community opinion, maybe share with the community why they are going that…

Agreed! Getting experience with new killer powers has been low key something that keeps bringing me back to bot matches both on PTB and on Live build when new chapters released.

DBD: THE BEST WINDOWS OF OPPORTUNITY BUILD - YouTube SOLO QUEUE VALUE! - YouTube Are you sure? I don't think it is just a text update. Here two videos of players using the recent (pre-alien chapter) version of the perk (Windows of Opportunity) and the videos clearly have Windows of Opportunity never going on cooldown.…

Hey dude! Just wanted to clear up some potential misinformation you appear to have come across or be under the impression of. 1st - "season reset" has NOTHING to do with MMR and the matchmaking system. It is merely a "grade reset" and the grade gives you bonus BP each month for killer and for survivor. 2nd - Stating, "mmr…

This is really good!!! I'm really impressed by a lot of your fundamentals! The pose is fun and exciting, but you still nailed the figure/structure! Plus your values and contrast are really eye catching! Awesome work!!!

Thank you for the information, quick question regarding additionally purchased cosmetics for shared DLCs. If we have purchased cosmetics for a DLC lost through Family Sharing and have no intention of ever purchasing that DLC again, is there a way to get our Auric Cells refunded and the cosmetic removed from our account? If…

I really appreciate the specific survey and would love to see more mini-surveys that are more direct/targeted for a specific top. But I definitely agree. The very first thing I noticed was in the example perk was that they misspelled "exhaustion" which feels like the main type of issue that should not be present in this…

I absolutely agree! Before Dbd, R6 Siege was my "main game" until it jumped the shark. The Singularity brings aspects I miss from that into DbD. Mainly the constant juggling of managing your location and pulling out surveillance devices regularly for map/player knowledge. More QoL features on Singularity would be very…

True, but "pulling" still feels less disorienting on the receiving end than a full teleport. Its a closer comparison than Pinhead but still not comparable enough. I'm still open to seeing it. But, I also trust a game developers' input that that particular aspect felt bad.

Interesting! I am glad you find it interesting, and I definitely agree it would be unique. Unfortunately, just because something is interesting or unique doesn't make it good. :( I feel Pinhead is a bad example of comparison, because like the Live Singularity, the Killer is in control of teleporting, thus they know to…

I believe the devs did mention the power was changed at some point during development. Who's to say whether it was early, mid or late-stage development. But I recall the devs saying originally, rather than teleporting to survivor, the survivor was teleported to the killer. However, I believe they said that was much too…

Clearly your upset about tunneling, but what aspect are you trying to solve? Please don't just say "Game Design". A. Time spent in a 3v1 match: As 3v1 is easier for killer so the match ends quicker than a 4v1 in which someone is tunneled out? B. 4th player (tunneled player): Since player tunneled out doesn't get to play,…

I'll answer all of these in order, then give my personal reasoning. Doubtful, I assume most devs want to leave work at work. Even if they did, they'd need to get higher ups/bosses to approve. Seems incredibly unlikely. Nah, same as above. Nah, Feng Min's cosmetics are literally equivalent to printing money. And they are…

I believe it is based on my remembrance of the devs saying that prior. However, I do not recall where/when that was stated. My personal experience supports this though. M-F my evenings are 100% killer after 6 or 7 pm. However, when I queue up with my friends who rarely play, I get 50-100% survivor during the same time…

Thank you for always explaining the MMR system when it come up, it is very helpful ad clears many misconceptions. I am curious, would it be feasible to have a 2 system matchmaking where players can control their matchmaking preferences in settings. Setting 1: Prioritize Time - Literally the present system, unchanged other…

Everyone seems to be discussing why they nerfed Demo via this addon. My perspective has been the opposite. Why are they "buffing" another killer via nerfing Demo? I feel Alien fills a similar role to Demo, and in an attempt to increase sales and playrate (and overall success) of the Alien chapter/killer, they want Alien to…

I think you're partially correct. I don't think the system is as binary as "what side in the game needs players? Give that side BP Bonus!" While BP bonus is to help incentivize players to play the side "in-demand", I don't believe that is the full story. I believe that the devs have explained it also takes player MMR into…

Wait! I want to change my vote! I voted Bruce Wayne b/c I didn't see any Arnold characters... so my response was "LAME!!! no Arnorld, guess I'll just pick batboi....". Then realized, I don't know any character names of Arnold's roles. Looked up this Dutch guy and realized that's who I wanted the whole time. If you can edit…

This is a great post: I'll categorize killers in my rotation, however, category 1 will directly answer the prompt. Category 1 - Always Fun Favorites/Always in rotation: Demo, Knight, Twins, Artist Category 2 - Fun Playstyle, weak outcome (thus lower frequency in rotation): Ghostface, Dredge, Skull Merchant, Pig Category 3…

Are there multiple "random perk" tome challenges? If so, is this issue specific to a particular challenge or all random perk challenges?

No! I am absolutely not saying that! WHOA! That was an extreme jump in thought process. I believe that comparison is a False Dichotomy, something used in arguments to incorrectly draw comparisons in a way that is not accurate. It's a type of logical fallacy. A logical fallacy is defined as "common errors in reasoning that…

Couple of points I thought were worth mentioning (mostly based on OP's post and image). While you were tunneled, you also were present MOST of the match since your team managed to complete 4/5 generators. You're using bond! From my own experience, bond is one of the best perks for avoiding being found from the killer,…

This is quite the discussion. Whataboutisms and comparisons seem rather misleading, especially the way you are trying to draw conclusions and compare. First, let's discuss, the not-so-subtle Title Issue... that isn't exactly in the title. The fact that DS/OtR were nerfed to be disabled during end game. I was under the…

I can't even with these posts. TEMPLATE: "Polite Greeting to Devs." "X-players are doing Y-thing that is negative (cheating, exploit, toxic etc.). I would know as, yes, I am an X-player. It is not fun for EVERYONE." (*glad they can speak on behalf of everyone/majority) "You should fix this devs" "polite admission that I am…

I always appreciate posts such as this requesting an alternate mode or event game-mode (not just event in-game mechanics). At the same time, I am tired of the request for 2vs8. Its uninteresting and has a ton of flaws. In response to the quote in the title, "I feel like a lot of people want it", that is a terrible reason…

Haha its pretty bad... Maybe pretty is under selling, its really bad. BUT! It is playable! It does get 20-30fps, but the problem is it lacks stability and consistency. My wife plays on Switch and started right after they added crossplay. Overtime it has gotten worse and worse. Especially with reworked maps. The swamp maps…

Depends who you are.... I actually found the opposite true. The news and hype for End Transmission really overshadowed any interest I had in TCM. I keep trying to engage with TCM open weekend and the content with it, however, it seems rather boring and uninteresting compared to End Transmission and Year 8 announcements.

Question(s) regarding this chapter: What inspired the devs to be so ambitious with the various elements in this chapter? How has community feedback (from however far back) influenced the development of this chapter? Map: Everything about the new map is quite different! Alien vegetative jungle environment! Very colorful and…

That is fair... Although, I will say it seemed that regarding console platforms and cross-progression, Nintendo Switch was the closest we have gotten (at least based on direct communication). Bringing Switch Cross-progression to Steam would definitely help the lack of consideration the platform receives.

Please don't forget Nintendo Switch! There are still dedicated Nintendo Switch DbD players!

I just want to add my own two cents to the discussion. 1st - I have found that the most successful way to change this (atleast from my own perspective and ingame experience), is to be the change you want to see in the game's player community/behavior. -If you think its unfun when all the otherside does is "sweat to win",…

Two follow up questions on DC penalty: 1) Is there any chance of "Specific Repeat DCs" having an increased penalty? For example players who always DC against Nurse or Skull Merchant. Regular system: 1st DC = 30sec ; 2nd = 2min ; 3rd = 5min etc. What about players who DC any time they play Nurse? Say they have not DCed in a…

Ahh, that's fair! Thank you for response and insight!

Thank you very much for this detailed response. It was quite informative! It does make plausible sense granted the circumstances.

Is this confirmed or speculation? If it's confirmed, could you please provide the source?

This does not acknowledge, nor answer, "why they did not give us information regarding the anniversary stream event prior to today". Why not let people know Friday (May 12th), "In one week, Anniversary Stream Friday May 19th! Keep an eye on twitter for more details to come"? or "No confirmed date however the DbD…

This is a discussion about the details regarding the anniversary stream, when its takes place, and why that information was given with such short notice. I'd like to avoid any discussion pertaining to what the stream may or may not include, as this is both not the purpose of this discussion and also is against the guide…

Thank you very much! This is extremely exciting!!!

I'd have to agree. However, there are two things I thought he gains from survivors cleansing the infection. 1) Survivor objective slow down through killer-power based side-objective to survive (gets people off gens. Is it enough to counter the extra hit? probably not) 2) Killer instinct for tracking (since zombies are so…

Gotcha! A common issue I have seen with GF reveal and personally experienced is blocking the reveal with you own character's model. Could this be the issue? It's easy to not meet all the reveal requirements (location on screen, amount of GF occupying space, direct line of sight, distance, etc.) while feeling like you are…

What exactly do you do to make Ghost Face revealed? Please be specific. I struggle with this too and am curious of if it's a similar issue.

Great potential issues: I had some solutions in mind for these despite my lack of realizing they were issues. 1st point - generators are first come first serve, so whoever gets there first. (This could be interesting as a team's survivor(s) could request their killer to come pressure the other team off or go find a…

Thanks for the feedback! I do agree that player/role ratio could potentially pose an issue for this style of game mode. However, there are two reasons I don't think the potential ratio issues will as bad as speculated. 1st - I think many devoted mains may try other roles. For example, I am the only one in my friend group…

"Create some sort of 3 gen busting perk" - Didn't they already with Vittorio's "Potential Energy"...? If that's not good enough, you could always combo it with other perks that also speed up gens: Prove Thyself, Hyper Focus, Fast Track, OR a combo I like is Ace in the Hole and Plunderers. There seem to be a ton of perks…

Ahhhh, my apologies for my misunderstanding. Perfect, thanks again!

I was not referring to medkits in that example. Simply Self Care + Botany. So someone's math is still off, as GoodBoyKaru's 1st example of only self care was a 24sec heal and LeFennecFox's example of Self Care + Botany is a 30sec heal which makes no sense since only self care should be slower than self care + botany. Thank…

Question: Should there be parenthesis for everything that is not the # of charges? For your examples, what if we combine them? Is the correct equation the following? 16/(1*(1+0.5)*(1-0.33)) = 15.92 Thus, Botany Knowledge + Self Care = standard heal?

You rock dude! Thank you!

How can One calculate Heal speed. I am interested in calculating various combinations of perks and/or medkits to see the various "self healing" specific options and how long each takes. (for simplicity, you can leave out the medkit as I am most interested in how to calculate speed) Ex: Self Care, Botany Knowledge, Better…

Great idea! I had a similar idea I posted about here: No Map Repeat System, what about for Killers? — BHVR Personally, I don't think BP is enough of an incentive. Additionally, something that was pointed out to me, is that this already exists in the form of Dailies. They are more difficult to complete than simply playing a…
