Keep crashing on Xbox series x

on twitter i saw a user say he managed to play on X by creating a new profile. I don't know if it would work but I don't like playing without progress.

Are we sure it's part of the patch? Some suggested it was the 4k textures? Or am I being sow and that counts as part of?

Ah ok gotcha. When I got on the X the entire game was already upgraded so I didn't see a patch it just went wholly through for me.

all depends if you downloaded a fresh download once the patch was already released, or upgraded your old data after transferring it. I got a patch, it was 26gb or something.

No...there are two ways to get the upgrade. Both are broke as it’s the update that’s broke.

everyone on this thread should be compensated for this mess up. Extremely disappointing and haven’t gotten any update from the devs on this issue. I understand not everything will run perfect on day one, but at least keep the people who support your game updated on the progress of when a fix will be coming. All we’ve gotten were a few moderators to tell us they don’t know what’s going on which is wonderful news after dropping 500$.

No ETA on a bug that makes the game unplayable. FeelsBadMan

Just made a fresh account level 1 on my Xbox series x, dead by daylight runs fine. Not sure why my main account freezes

Yeah, it must be a data transfer problem.

I can also confirm the same thing, made a fresh account and the game is running flawlessly.

Hmm so should I just make a new account and smurf as a level 20 killer? I hate to do it but you guys already know that waiting to play DBD on next gen has been 4 days too long

Yeah or I can take this time to pick up a new killer...anything to pass the time and actually use my $500 paperweight at this point

So I got a Series X, and am having the exact same crashing issue as shown in this thread.

However, I was desperate to see how the game looked, so I logged into my husbands account (since we gameshare), and loaded the game. He doesn't play the game, he has no progress whatsoever. Every time I'm on his account, I am able to play! It makes no sense. Why can I play on an account with no progress, but not on my own. On the same xbox?

So if I want to play a survivor game, I have to be a rank 20 with no perks. No thanks.

Okay so I made a new xbox profile and started playing on my series x. All I can say is wow. This game runs so smooth, responsive, and crisp. Even though I’m not on my main acc and can’t progress The Rift, I’m happy. This is a complete game changer for killers especially because the limited FOV and FPS no longer feel sluggish compared to last gen. However, the game still crashes after you finish a match and try to go back to the killer main menu screen.

EDIT: The crashes are only occasional and everything saves after you close and restart the game

That's great and all but why does my new account missing Ash and Ghostface? Says I need to buy them and I have them both bought and installed

@MandyTalk curious if it maybe has to do with items? Could they go into my save game and just erase everything and give me enough blood points to get it all back?

I'll wait for the fix lol. I'm sure they're working as fast as they can. Their Twitter did reply and acknowledge what is going on at least. Just hope its up by the time the new killer releases and that trapper krampus skin is released.

Lol my money to use. I'm happy the game is still going like it is. Can't fault me for spending my money how I want. I'm sure they're doing their best to get it up and running.

I'm like devotion 7 level 60, and it's freezing for me. But

I signed in my wife account into my series X, she's like no devotion level 60, she got all DLC's and game shared from me as I set xbox as home. And it works, it doesnt have to be fresh account, there some kind of different issue.

Still, I gotta say few things...

1.Interface is extremely small. (Skill checks, names, every visible text, literally everything...) And I play on !! 75 inch TV !! I have to sit like 0,75m away so that I can see something, and the skillcheck difficulty ?? I can't hit great skill check, it's like 3mm small. Hitting good skillcheck is like hitting great SC. And I gotta say, I missed my first Decisive Strike Skillcheck after like 1000hours.....

2. When playing against The Nightmare, when you're in a dream, it's stuttering really bad. Hitting skillchecks is TERRIBLE experience.

And I played at 1080p 120hz resolution. Playing at 4K/60hz or even 120 hz is much worse.

So far these are the things why I'm goin back to Xbox One X + ext. SSD. (Normally the game is smoother and better on series X, but in certain situations "most important situations" is just much worse...)

1 thing I SUGGEST is to implement resolution of the game in options. 4k / 1080 and something like other games have - Framerate preference / Visuals Preference / Resolution preference ..... High framerate/High Quality....

That might be okay if you have 2 Xbox and that set up but most people upgraded and have just the series X and no information on when they can play while the rift is going down the drain

I have yet to see a post directly addressing this issue on any of their platforms but they sure love showing off skins and streamerss.

Yea I can imagine all the devs patting themselves on the back for a good PS5 launch, new leatherface cosmetic, new DLC, streamer boxes, and Rift pass sales while xbox people get entirely f'd over. Actually guys I think we're being too harsh on them. They deserve this weekend off

Coudnt agree more, not gonna spend any more $$ on this game. If they dont speak english maybe will understand this laungage instead.

Yep, its live

Seems to be working for me. Loaded into a survivor lobby without freezing just now.
