Survivors have new buggy and bad animations.
New hud is terrible when you are playing killer.
Clown was nerfed (very minor buff with bottles and terrible nerf with addons)
OoO is going to be changed, same with DS
They added a new tile (greenhouse), oryginally it didn't have collision for the killer.
Game has a terrible desync right now

Wait I thought clown was getting a buff Or a rework? Also what you mean by ooO getting changed?

How long is a long break for you? That would help to know. I just got back in a few weeks ago after a 2 year break
1 -
I don't have it reinstalled due to some stuff that pushed me away from this awsome game sadly.
I haven't played in like 5 months. Last I played was in 2019

Play killer unless you are a masochist.

He was buffed lol, you're not wrong. Clown now has a faster reload and an additional bottle type that speeds up any player that goes through it. He can use this to traverse the map more quickly, bait survivors into unsafe areas, mindgame them into thinking he's coming from a different direction than he actually is, etc. His add-ons are still extremely good, and I wouldn't even say they were nerfed on the whole. He lost his exhaustion add-on, but his add-ons are better over the whole range now and he has some cool new ones, such as getting aura reading on people who run through his clouds. He still has Redhead's Pinky Finger too, somehow.
As for OoO, someone else might answer this, but the devs have proposed changes for it - it hasn't been changed yet. Here are some details: https://forum.deadbydaylight.com/en/discussion/224303/feedback-on-proposal-for-object-of-obsession/p1

Okay so ill tell you what I've at least learned is newish (some might be a little old)
Ds is getting nerfed to be anti tunneling
Object of Obsession is getting changed
Twins came out and most people hate them since they aren't very interesting to people and the main strategy with them is to slug
There are a lot of bugs right now that make playing survivor very difficult especially
Maps are getting touched up some
Clown has a new bottle that gives speed to him and survivors if they enter the smoke
People complain a lot about Freddy being overpowered. Similar with spirit
A new rift started recently
Thats all I can think of that you may not have known

Oh ok thx:)

Balance hasn't changed much in the past 5 months, meta remained pretty much the same.
What's new is that the devs have started the graphics update they teased during the anniversary.
- MacMillan, Autohaven, Ormond, Springwood, Yamaoka, Gideon and Asylum maps were reworked
- New models for gens, chests, lockers, pallets, breakable walls, fire pits, etc.
- New models for the Killer shack, which change with the realm
Clown received his rework, which is not much more than him getting a secondary power in addition to his old one, which he kept.

I suggest you go back to taking a break.
0 -

The game is in a terrible state right now.

Sorry but your going to have to explain plz. Don't just tell me it's in a terrible state. Tell me why it is. I need to know why.

You probably remember how the forums were negative then. Nothing changed.
I always take a break from this game but whenever I get back to it I have fun. I am having fun now too after not playing for a year.
Just try playing and see for yourself.

Basically survivors hitboxes are massively messed up where killers get lots of easy hits. Survivors are also not getting the final emblem unless you survive which has messed up survivor ranks a lot. Being survivor just is super difficult right now. Thats the short way to explain some of the bigger issues
0 -
Survivors should have a hard time surviving that's why it's called dead by daylight. Not bullying the killer mains.
2 -
There's a set of conditions to pip. The system is currently not following those conditions. Survivors are not to blame for meeting these conditions and not being rewarded.
0 -
I totally agree but its a bit overkill right now. Killers are able to hit through walls, hit through windows, negate survivor animations (for example ive had a game where I vaulted a pallet and the killer still grabbed me from the opposite side even though i finished the animation), pallets aren't very useful nor are vaulting locations. Its a rough time

The only good thing about him is faster reload, which isn't really important because you never reload unless survivor is cornered or he is on the hook.
New yellow gas, it's bad. Not because it's bad in itself, but because it doesen't adress any of the clown issues. You can't really use it for map traversal becaue of its long activation time and it still have a cost of one bottle.
So it's the best used on the loop to get this 10% speed, while slowing down survivor with normal tonic. Thanks to that you can force survivors to throw pallets faster... excatly the same thing that clown always done, but with a twist. Now you need 2 bottles because he lost one of his best cheap addons (vol 10%), that increased hindered status duration... now you are only left with vol 15% (purple :/) and bleach.
They also butchered make up kit.
Cigar box was changed from an addon that allows you to spread gas on a whole loop, to an aura reading of 16m, that is good only against survivors, who sneak hard... but 1, you already have to know they are there, 2 they usually either hide terribly or use sprint burst... exhaustion addons could be useful in that scenario.
And because of an old buff, that changed how throw cooldown works (buff) now he only has a few addons that do much.
"He still has Redhead's Pinky Finger too, somehow."
If they removed it, he would lost everything that makes him viable on better ranks
TL:DR
- Reload speed increased +
- Addons nerfed -
- New tonic that you really shouldn't use
If they make antidote use separate bottles, that are reloaded together with the main power, it will be better, but still not great. They should really remove an activation time, they added it to avoid using it on loops... but quess what... it's the best use that you have with them thanks to exactly that.

Play survivor. It has never been easier.

Well uh, unless you're a killer main, you've come at the wrong time. Anyways everyone else should have mentioned everything, however Clown did get buffed, the only addon he lost was the Exhaustion bottles addon which was honestly just a ridiculous addon. He still has the yellow faster reload addon and his base reload speed is 3 seconds, oh and speedy bottles so that's cool.
If you're a survivor main wait a few days for the 4.5.2 patch and it'll be better.
