The second iteration of 2v8 is now LIVE - find out more information here: https://forums.bhvr.com/dead-by-daylight/kb/articles/480-2v8-developer-update

A week after update honest opinion

I can get over the new animation graphics, I can. I understand why this has happened. That doesn't mean I approve because I thought the game was perfect just the way it was, but I understand and I can adjust.

However I do find it disheartening that the head nodding and the crouching stance has been changed, a graphical update fair enough but changing the body gestures completely was unnecessary.

That being said I can also adjust to the new HUD.

I have to admit what is disappointing to me is the lack of actual costumes being added to the game. The fact that the game breaks EVERY TIME they do an update.

Those are my only gripes with the game right now. Add more costumes and instead of reverting the changes made entirely, please just bring back the head nodding at least. It's part of the personality of the game and has been for a long time.

    I think it's kinda funny you ask for more costumes when I usually see people complain that all Behaviour does is adding costumes and not fixing their game. I must say I do agree with your post though, I've gotten used to most of these changes, even if they didn't exactly make the game better.

    The issue with the HUD isnt people not adjusting to it, most people will, but with what cost? Every few games I get an enormous headache from having to look everywhere on my screen, when it could all be together..

    The animations just look like they're from a free mobile game, made by one person. They're too stiff and unnatural. If the point was to make more realistic ones, I'd say that wasn't achieved.

    Facts, I had a Bubba nodding at me from across the map and all I could do was teabag, come on BHVR I just wanna nod not be toxic

    Ok, but honestly I'm fine with the new hud. Idc what BHVR does with it, it doesn't give me a headache, and honestly it's done more good for me than bad. I like the icons and hook counter. It's actually simpler for me to look in one place and see one piece of info than everything clustered in one corner

    Other than that, breaking the game with each update does suck. Some bugs are expected but it takes a long time for them to get fixed

    The only thing i have issue with for the new ui is the score events in the top right corner, if they had kept that under the survivor icons on the left side that would have been so much better.

    You must all be exclusively killers, because the most broken thing about the update by far is the busted ass hits.

    Me & some friends just play without the HUD anymore, as if it doesn't exist, it's so difficult to actually use it. Bonus points if you're playing Doctor because after 3 games I'm yet to discern the difference between madness 2 and 3 in the new HUD anyways

    I just forget the HUD exists because of the placement it is now. I never look up. I always forget to check how many gens are remaining too.

    I still can't play as it makes me motion sick to play survivor now. So I'll be holding onto the revert DbD movement mentality. If it's not changed I'll just be forced to quit which is sad.

  • Not being able to crouch to avoid huntress hatchets on the high rise side of a pallet is annoying as well.
