Can Second Wind allow a Survivor to go from dying to injured?
I just played against a Mikaela who picked herself up off the ground, from the dying state into the injured state. This perk doesn't specify the ability to go from dying to injured, but is it supposed to? It was at 3 generators remaining so it wasn't Adrenaline.
Stutter performance / g sync or v sync issue ?
Im in a bit of a crisis, ever since the patch my game is stuttery and just not smooth. This has happened before but Im a bit lost on what settings I should be using to get DBD to run well.

as we know, mmr calculating win matches. survivor goes exit gates = + mmr, dies = - mmr probably 1.5-2 years ago when mmr system was added, i remember bhvr told that in future mmr will calculate not only your wins, it will calculate HOW MUCH YOUR TEAM WINS, so it means how much you was useful for your team. for example,…
Game Crashing?
I play through a console and recently in the middle of my matches, it just keeps freezing and then backs me out to the lobby saying that I’ve been kicked.

MY DBD IS CONSTANTLY STUTTERING, I BEG YOU PLS HELP ME!!
I'm on Steam, PC. This is happening since this patch, but I don't recall it happening after 7.7 immediately.

I tried to put the game at 60 fps, but nothing, every time a survivor does an action, like using Sprint…

How many Bloodpoints for trinkets?
It says at the end of the anniversary the trinkets will be converted into Bloodpoints, but how much? Currently i only like the clowns mask, the others are not my cup of coca cola. Is it worth actually not spending the trinkets? If its taken 1 for 1 then its definitly not worth it ofc.

Do Terror Radius Perks Work When Controlling Victor Since 7.7.0?
Because Victor's grunts now appear on the visual terror radius indicator, does that mean Victor has a terror radius? If I were to use Infectious Fright for example: when I down a survivor as Victor, would any Survivors in my "grunt radius" scream and reveal their location? What is the radius of Victor's grunt?

On PS5, can't see a friend or join each other anymore.
We've played before but now when I try to join him through the PS5 UI, it shows him as anonymous and he doesn't appear in the game friend list at all.

Background for purchasing DLC.

Should we see Skill Check bubbles on other Survivors?
So earlier while playing the game, I had a thought. What if we can see a small skill check sphere appear over Survivors heads that are working with us on the same generator? I know it might not do much, but it would seem a bit helpful to prepare for a possible failed skill check on their end rather than be surprised by an…
