Windows of opportunity plus drac issues
windows of opportunity is almost a 50/50 now with the release of drac. I’ve noticed that it drops frames drastically, and in five of my games I can’t even vault over pallets due to having it on. (I’m not a fan of dcing but come on. I can’t even use it without feeling motion sick from the dropped frames.)
drac also has been having an issue with his fire pillars. I’m aware that the distance does change due to add on. But it’s kinda clear that the distance is actually much farther than what’s advertised. Especially when watching someone clearly out of distance getting smacked by an invisible pillar. I had watched a bit of a comparison between pyramid head and him. Base wise they do share similar distances. Pyramid’s has a clear cut line dictating where to avoid. I understand Drac’s is meant to be harder to spot. But why is it that people keep getting hit fully out of his range. I swear it’s like watching old pyramid head again But I think what’s really important is the problem with his transformation.
I’m not exactly sure what triggers it but after a certain point and being downed by him, once he transforms back to regular form and he hooks someone they can’t get down. From experiences with friends you can’t even attempt and no one can help pull them down. Usually when this glitch activates it also triggers a healing glitch. Takes a bit to actually come in to play, but either two or all are affected. During this you can’t heal the other until you drop your item. At first I thought I was going crazy until it happened five other times.
I’m not a fan of dcing but honestly why give us the button and punish us with a timer due to these kind of issues. I give props where there do but honestly a lot of issues are there. I’d like to continue playing but a lot needs to be peeked into. In my experience so far I’ve seen more dcs now then in my past games.
Ideally one thing that would help is lessening the dc penalty when it’s passed four or five. (because dc number four is up to five hours. Hate to see what five looks like, but you hardly got an option. Most games if I give up when it’s this bad I just take the death. I feel like the button should either be removed, or lessen the dc penalties. We also don’t need a penalty if we don’t truly have a ranked mode. I get that dead by daylight has a ranking system. But it’s not optional to play in high stake lobbies it’s forced if you’re in that bracket. We should be able to dc and just lose a full rank and no xp gain, especially when it’s in bugged out games.)
I do genuinely love the game, and want to see more of it in the future. I just hope the issues actually get a look at.
