Return of Jiggle Physics for Survivors/Killers?

I noticed a lot of the jiggle physics were removed from survivors and some killers. I understand if there are differences of opinion about why they should or shouldn't be included, if it is causing fps drops for some players, etc, but perhaps the developers could create an option to toggle them on or off for the players' preferences? Would anyone else be on board with this?

    I´d love them to make a return. It looks....strange having the characters be as stiff as a rock even when they are fluffy.

    Just as long as they aren't on spirit...given her schoolgirl outfits she's definitely young, her base outfit is bad enough as it is, but when I found out that spirit had jiggle physics I was disgusted.

    I would like jiggle physics to return. Clown would have a nice jiggly belly again.

    Haven't even noticed they were removed. Seen significantly lowered texture resolutions on things like fog, lack of texture filtering on some things, birds have permanently spread feathers, other cancelled new graphical features... Looks like PC players have to suffer too from these PS4 optimizations. At least cloth and hair physics are still there, for now.

    All characters depicted in BHVR's Dead By Daylight are adults and / or young adults (at the very least age 18)

    It's also mentioned in the very first paragraph of her lore that "She studied Education at Takamatsu, a private university" so Rin Yamoaka is implied to be potentially slightly older than that, being at College age. So cool your jets @Katie_met nothing sus going on here.

    But still, she has outfits that make her appear like a school girl and I really dislike that.

    Okay, well... I don't know what to tell you then. That's an opinion statement, not really much I can do about that.

    It fits her character, she was a normal Japanese girl who went to school before she fell victim to the tragedy of her family and their Yamaoka bloodline, and eventually the supernatural whims of the entity itself. That's why those outfits are there, to remind of the character's unfortunate and tragic backstory, of a previous life now long lost.


    You're the one perverting her character here, not the game.

    I'm not though... minus her age there's no need for her lack of clothing or jiggle physics

    But you are, if you're weren't thinking of the character that way you would not have a problem with Jiggle physics being re-applied to character models and cosmetics where they make sense.

    Also, are you really lecturing the developers about how they should create their characters and horror stories? Dead by Daylight is a mature game, intended for a mature audience. (Regardless of rampant immaturity which may or may not be occurring)

    Sorry for bumping this but do we know if this was a bug or was it intentionally removed?
