After playing on pc
I recently built a pc and after finally experiencing good frames I can say that, the fact the devs left console in such a bad state is absurd. Pc is so smooth and for all my console brethren I feel bad for you. Dbd on pc vs console is night and day. To top it off stretch res, low settings, mouse and keyboard its all great. I love it. Console will never experience this and it sucks to think about because of all the console players.

Ever since I built my first PC I have never been able to get back into console. It just provides more bang for my buck than consoles do and games usually run better unless they're made by behavior.

Console dbd is really bad. I bought the game for my nephew's xbox one. He asked me to lvl up Nurse for Nurse's Calling and blinking was hard. This was even before her rework. No one actually knows how different the game is until you've played both versions.
Welcome to the master race >.>

I'd love to buy a PC and continue playing dbd, as I have before but have over 4k hours on Xbox and am not going to be starting from scratch. When and if cross progression comes in for consoles, I'll be ditching it asap. It's just awful and they genuinely aren't doing anything to improve performance on current gen.

FPS really doesn't matter much, if you get above 30 the game runs fine. Though great skillchecks become pretty hard to time

I feel the same way about Monster Hunter World. If I could keep my progress id buy the PC version.

Exactly and I enjoy being able to easily use my pc for other things like watching netflix,anime, listening to music. I also prefer steam over the xbox live community so thats great as well.
Thank you my claudette avatar friend.

I didnt understand just how bad it was until I finally got into pc. Even the movement is even is better. I'm able to moonwalk consistently, my 360s are great, I love having high sensitivity that I can control so my blight instantly got better. You are very much right I'm glad I'm fortunate enough to play on pc.
I'm glad to join the master race.

Play on 120 frames and you'll change your mind instantly.

FPS does matter, the difference between 30 and 60 is huge. If you have a high refresh rate monitor you'll even notice a big difference between 60 and 120 fps.
Trust me, once you experience the difference you wouldn't want to go back. I bought a 144hz monitor years ago and can't imagine going back to even 60hz. I capped my FPS to 120 and play DBD on low settings just for the FPS. Much more smooth and gives a competitive advantage. (Trust me I went from Master Guardian 2 to Legendary Eagle in CS:GO in no time after upgrading my monitor!)

But what about blight, wasn't the whole reason was so that you could do those sick 180 blight plays

Never said that there's no difference in experience. Naturally anyone would want to run with 120FPS/144hz rather than 30~40FPS/60hz, but in dbd your FPS barely affects your performance.
Unless of course you're having constant drops when moving around...that does do more than just bother you.

I main blight on console... I am painfully aware of the poor optimization.
They told us about 2 years ago that they're targeting 60fps for all available platforms. You can clearly see how that has not been met if you hop on any last gen console.
It is downright disgraceful that the devs have ignored these issues for so long.

Console DBD was just a cash grab. The same as the mobile game.

I already figured out japanese flicks. I do the dpi shift thing ascension does. But no I switched becuase console is ass lol.

I went from the Nintendo Switch to PC... the difference was insane. Looking at it positively, I guess playing at 20fps and not being able to see anything was a good learning experience.

That must be one hell of a PC, I still have ridiculous stutter til everything in the game has finally loaded
0 -
honestly I played one match of dbd with controller just for a laugh and all I feel now when I see a console killer is bad for them
0 -
Its honestly only bad for a select few killers like blight. When the frames are nice I was a cracked console player.

I have a 1650 with a ryzen 3 3100, 16 gigs. Thats all you need for good fames. You must have like a 1050 ti.

Yeah you really appreciate the frames when you played on bad ones
0 -
Gonna assume you've spent all your life on console and or a Nintendo switch. FPS makes a huge difference in everything. Games regardless of genre and movies and shows.

They had it for a while, but after a certain update all that beautiful optimization went out the window. Played on a ps4 pro and it was great until whatever update ruined it. Though I've been on PC for like two years so its been a while.

Not to mention, console players are looked down upon by a lot of PC players cause its been very apparent that most Dbd console players are not the best. But there's so many of y'all, we gotta cooperate. There's def exceptions to this, cause I have played with good console players. But its so damn rare.
PC Master race is the way. Always has been. Glad to have you join us!

5500 xt and a Ryzen 5 3600, 16 gigs. I know, it sounds like overkill, but I'm seriously not kidding when I say I have massive stutter for the first hour or so of playing DbD, til all the assets are loaded and ready to go. Only game I have problems with, and they're the same whether the graphics are on low or ultra.
Still, not as bad as my year one Xbox one (tried it for a few days about a year ago and my ######### old pre-upgrade PC that had less processing power than the console ran DbD smoother than that. How is console so broken?)

Nah I play on a lower end laptop and have never owned a console, it sure ain't the most amazing gaming experience but it works pretty well

It matters a lot actually. Games these days should run at 60 fps, so when they can't even do 30 they become borderline unplayable. Because the frame rate will actually skew your skill like it does in this game.

I can respect that good luck on your game then.

I have a whole lesser gpu and my game works fine no matter what. I never have to restart, zero frame drop, no stutters. It's just always smooth. I guess dbd is just poorly optimized for Ryzen gpus?
0 -
Try playing killer on an Xbox when it drops into the teens for frames. Especially on the indoor maps. Because, console.
0 -
Maybe if you're survivor. If you play killer the extra frame rate helps a lot. Not even on Huntress or Deathslinger. All kilers benefit a lot fro much higher framerates if you are the type that looks around constantly to find survivors. And heck even on Survivor constantly looking aroudn while in chase makes a big difference and you need high framerates to do it properly.

He's not using a Ryzen GPU that's a Ryzen CPU.
The larger issue is probably playing the game on harddrive. Put it on SSD, preferably NVME for better performance.
The game is just badly-optimized. Kudos to you for not having stutters. I have stutters in the game too and my GPU is much better than a 5500 XT. Stutters usually when someone goes on hook and screams. The game obviously doesn't pre-cache all assets needed before starting. I have it on hard drive too since my SSD has other stuff on it.
