I am playing DBD on PS5, and it RUNS LIKE A DREAM 🥰

I've tried a fair bit of survivor with a controller. It actually plays a lot better for me when I remember what buttons are what, it's just that I... Well, forget what buttons are what and grumpily sideline my controller as I'm being carried to the hook

I sure love playing on PC with 100+ FPS for years now and not having to worry about my toaster not being able to push 40 FPS

What's that whooshing sound... Is it the spirit, coming to grab the poor Claudette from the generator? No, that couldn't be it... Maybe it's the Adrenaline activating on the Baby Meg, letting her run away to the corner? No, that's not it either... How about the whistling of a hatchet sailing across Comdwind Farm? No, I don't think that's the case...
Oh- I know! It's the sound of the joke sailing so far over your head it's reached low earth orbit!

And here we go, slowly and surly, they are gonna forget about ps4/xbox one and never properly optimize their game for those console and their responses are gonna be "Just buy the new console lmao"

This game's poor performance on consoles is truly baffling. Look at the textures. The trees are actually incredibly pixilated. Next time you're in the Doctor map check out the white stone near the exit gates.

@TheClownIsKing Do you notice a significant increase in graphic quality?

Some footage of DBD captured at 4k 60 FPS on PS5: https://youtu.be/F0lrQRMwGqs

While the more powerful consol Series X freezes it seems? But very nice to hear this it's probably going to be as good or better on Series X when they patch it.
1 -
No Freddy is a huge disappointment.
2 -
I never had problems on Xbox one (not that I noticed anyway) but just got Series X along with my new 65 inch OLED ThinQ and OMFG.... everything is beautiful.

@Ryuzaki thank you for the footage, it's great to see that it's running so well on PS5!

No the trophys issue really sucks. I have every trophy in the game. I really don't want to go through getting them all back again!

Freddy not being in the PS5 version other then a license issue. makes no sense at all. As someone who has all the DLC on PS4 and PC. It should not be an issue with something I already own. I'm not demanding it change and it may never. However my argument is this. If the license expired the following should not happen.
- I should never have to face Freddy on PS5 period
- Badham preschool should never be a map on PS5
- I should never play with a Quinten on PS5.
The idea that the license expired so I can't play as Freddy or Quinten on PS5 but playing on his themed map and against him is still allowed thanks to cross platform play? He's technically still in the game. so as person who already owns him I should have access to him. I can understand new players not being able to use him but since it's the same account I should be able too.
the same goes for anyone on switch

Yeah pretty dumb. But they did confirm that they are bringing him back. So they did fix the issues it’s probably just waiting for legal reasons to get him back in all new consoles.
I figured the PS4 and PS5 transition would bypass this but apparently not.
0 -
as long as they're getting him back, I don't play as Freddy too often but I don't like the idea of loosing content that I already own on a technicality.
3 -
Omg. This is fantastic news! I'm still at work and I'm so eager to get home and play it on PS5!
1 -
I'm so glad to hear it's working well on PS5. I have to wait until the 19th to try it out for myself. Enjoy everyone :)
0 -
Wait, Badham is gone too? Hell yes, that ######### can stay far away. Bring Freddy and Quentin back though.
1 -
They never said current gen. They simply said they were working on console optimisation. It was always ambiguous.
0 -
They’ll still need to support until the end of 2021. Microsoft & Sony expect that a large portion of their market will transition slowly to next gen.

The old maps just look much more crisp. The new/reworked maps look excellent. The lighting looks improved too.
1 -
By all means, write a letter and send it to the Wes Craven Estate.
0 -
That’s the thing though.
No one owns it.
Anyone that bought the DLC purchased a limited license.
And those limitations could be just about anything, as set by the legal rights owner of the intellectual property.
1 -
The thing is though, for a time, they did. There WAS significantly improved performance on PS4. And although it has dipped up n down since then, the game still runs much better than it ever has on PS4, except for that HUGE debacle with the mid chapter patch.
So they haven’t lied.
0 -
It would be nice if they could figure how to get the series x working. You would think this would of been worked out before launch.
0 -
A fix may be coming early next week unless they work on the weekends.
1 -
I’m sure it’s one of their top priorities to get it fixed ASAP. Bad PR otherwise to have it go on too long for a next gen update.

You said "the PC version," not "my specific potato PC."
0 -
Yeah, my potato PC with a Ryzen 5 6-core-12-thread processor clocking at 3.6ghz pre-overclock, Radeon 5500 xt 8gb card, and 16 gigs of ram that plays every single game I have ever tried to play at a bare minimum of 60 FPS at maximum settings except ######### DbD. My bad. Should have rembered I'm using a clock battery.
I've got no doubt your machine is better, and I'm not here to measure dicks. Just pointing out that I've got the processing power to run DbD at 60fps on minimum settings and it just doesn't stop the stutter for reasons I cannot fathom.

I should've preordered a ps5. I tried to snag one on both the best buy and walmart sites. But each time I had my order in the cart, it would glitch out due to server overloads and both stores would kick my order. I'm just gonna have to wait awhile for a ps5. Sigh...
0 -
You misunderstand me. I'm not here to argue that the PC version is some optimized testament to BHVR's powerhouse programming skills. For how the game looks and its relatively tiny environments and limited characters/interactions, my 3080 should be getting ######### 500 FPS at 4k on Ultra, and your 5500 XT should be the one easily hitting 100+ FPS.
However, in terms of "being better than the PC version," as was the original claim, that's simply not the case. In this instance, the PS5 just did what PC users do: brute-forced quasi-acceptable performance out of a game that massively underperforms.
2 -
Amazing to hear that it runs well on PS5 but I can't help but feel annoyed about it.
Do I seriously need to buy a 500 dollar system just to enjoy my favorite game on a decent frame rate? :/

This is from the very top of the Road to 60fps dev update from March 2019.
“When we first released Dead by Daylight back in 2016, we targeted 30 FPS on our minimum spec. Up until recently, we optimized the game in bursts; for the console launch and before releasing a new Killer. We are now ready to set a new performance target: Dead by daylight will run at 60 FPS on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and minimum spec PCs.”
The article is here:

I probably personally couldn’t have justified it if there were absolutely no launch titles I was interested in.
But fortunately I already feel I’ve gotten my monies worth, and it’s only been less than 48 hours. Astro’s Playroom and the way it demonstrates all of the new controller features is a joyful experience. Bugsnax is charming and engrossing. Both Spider-Man games are a feast for the eyes. PS5 DBD, and just how excellent it performs is just icing on the cake.
The absolute standout though is the Demon’s Souls remake. It’s absolutely astonishing and extraordinary. The extreme level of detail, fidelity, and lighting effects (when on cinematic mode) is breathtaking. It’s absolutely beautiful to look at.

Unfortunately I didn't get my PS5 delivered today, so I've got a couple of questions!
- did you transfer DbD PS4 on an external HDD to a PS5 or did you download it on the PS5 store + dlc?
- Did your rift progress transfer over?
- did your builds for survivor and killer also transfer or did you have to make your builds again?
- did your rank and devotion transfer safely?
Thanks! Crossing my fingers Amazon delivers it Friday for me.

Ok, I stand corrected, and apologise. Perhaps, try as they might, they simply didn’t have the time, resources, and capacity to both prepare for next gen, and implement such optimisation for current gen, or it’s simply not possible.
Who knows, now that PS5 and Series X/S versions are finally released, they might revisit optimisation for PS4 and XBONE, because there is bound to still be a significant portion of the DBD player base using those consoles for the next 12 to 24 months.

- i simply signed into my PSN, looked at my game library, clicked on the DBD icon, and when it expanded, off to the right was a box asking if I wanted my free upgrade to PS5 edition. Oddly for some strange reason it first downloaded the PS4 version, then downloaded the PS5 version, and overwritten it.
- All of my progress transferred over. Rift, shards, bp, auric cells, cosmetics, perks (and their respective tiers on their respective characters), add ons, offerings, Everything except Freddy and Quentin, but I can still use/get Badham offerings, and have all their perks. Trophies do not carry over because PS5 seems the PS5 version of DBD as an entirely separate game. It was funny first loading the game and immediately being awarded the P1, P2, P3, and P3 50 trophies.
- Loadouts and cosmetics were all a clean slate. So I had to re-equip all of my preferred loadouts and cosmetics.
- Rank and devotion all carried over.
- Good luck. Hope your console arrives for you soon.

The frustrating thing is the devs don’t talk about or acknowledge this at all anymore.
Ive had my questions deleted from the Q and A threads about it, they ignore comments about it; and haven’t talked about or addressed it at all.
I would be disappointed but at least have closure if they said they encountered problems and the goal was too ambitious to achieve or something, or even that they are still working on it or not, but they won’t mention it at all. It really feels like being swept under the rug and forgotten about and with the new consoles and PC issues taking most of the attention it feels hard to not have enough clout as a small section of the playerbase concerned by this to even get anything from the devs about it. If this was something that affected the larger market then this silence wouldn’t be accepted and enough of a fuss would be kicked up that a response would be given in some way to placate everyone as opposed to being ignored and deleted. :’(

Buy a 2020 system to play a 2016 game properly. Can't help but laugh at how ridiculous that is. 😂

I just got mine and when I inserted the disc for DBD, it gave me a “copy” button instead of download. Does this mean I’ll be able to switch between the PS4 and PS5 versions of DBD?
Also there is a free PS5 upgrade option for me even though I have the disc and I am really excited, especially if I can switch between PS4 and PS5 versions at will.
0 -
Has it finished installing?
If so, either scroll down from the DBD icon fro the main PS5 hub page, or if it’s not there, find DBD in your game library and push cross.
There should be a box over on the right. It’ll either offer a free PS5 upgrade or it will advertise some DLC or add on. If the free PS5 upgrade option isnt there, perhaps it isn’t offered for the disc version for some strange reason?

Agh so I need to hit 100 Huntress downs from 100 feet away while getting 250 protection hits BEFORE i upgrade to PS5?
Bro moment.

Unless you don’t mind trying to earn those trophies again on PS5
0 -
I have to earn them in the first place.

Trophies don’t carry from a PS4 version to a PS5 version. They’re seen as two separate games. This was no different to when there were PS3 & PS4 versions of an identical game.
1 -
It’s there and I already upgraded, but I was wondering if you could switch between PS4 and PS5 (which you can, I checked it out for myself).
Both versions have installed and holy crap the PS5 version looks amazing. Shame about the trophies being reset though.

It’s just heavenly isn’t it.
The performance makes a MASSIVE difference when playing killer. Survivor 360’s are a cake walk to hit now. No more sudden disorientation from frame dips during a chase.
1 -
So you thank BHVR that they have/had one of the worst optimized games in gaming history for over 4 years and they just waited out to let it getting fixed by the hardware of next gen consoles?? This is just laughable. In conclusion this means they did actually no improvements regarding the code and engine. I still can remind when they did that big optimization announcement years ago, it was just empty promises.
2 -
So because you’re unhappy, you’re unhappy that I’m happy about the game?!

I never properly learned how to counter 360s because of the poor performance on PS4, it's just don't lunge (like Dead Hard), right? I think there was a couple of other counters but I don't remember them.
I'm beginning to think that the poor state of PS4 and XB1 wasn't because they didn't care, but they were just inexperienced. This is their first big console multiplayer game and I think this is their first game on those consoles. When the current gen console dev kits started being sent to devs, they used their experiences with PS4/XB1 when developing the PS5/XSX versions of DBD and it paid off big time. The game looks gorgeous now.
