Should dbd add in game comms or a slasher mode?

What do I mean by this? I played Friday the 13th on ps4. Even though it has a dedicated party system I felt more incentivized to use the in game proximity chat with the walkie talkies. It gave a bigger sense of urgency to find them and made being immersed a gameplay benefit rather than an hinderance.

I'm not as knowledgable as a lot of you on here, but if BHVR tried to implement this could it improve on solo survivor gameplay?


Should there be an option to only cue up as doubles and just leave full swf for custom games?


Should there be a slasher mode that only allows solo queuing or the option to vote on banned perks while in the lobby? Like 4 survivors pick a single perk each and the killer picks 4 perks. Kinda like a draft pick on a moba.

    No.

    Adding in global voice chat for Solo's is fine.

    Locking people's ability to play with friends is not.

    Could you go into more depth rather than just simple x is bad or x is good? I could see multiple pros and cons for both sides of keeping queuing limited vs not.

    What are your opinions on the matter?

    Should they change how the game is played so there is multiple queues for casual or more serious play with the serious play being solo or doubles only?


    These are the kind of thoughts I was looking for.

    They should add to the rating system like if you've been impressed by a player continuously by someone and you've rated it there should be a mark on them the next time you see them in a lobby. If all four other players gave you good marks you should be rewarded 10k blood points or 100 iridescent shards but you only have the option to give good marks to 2 players (killer and a survivor) This would incentivize good playing without too much abuse going on.

    That's a pretty cool idea! I like how they have the "how did you enjoy the match" rating. I would love to give some people an extra boost for going above and beyond. Especially as a killer, I've seen some plays that make my jaw drop and I'd love to give them something besides a gg.

    Maybe the game could be create killers bots for swf 😂

    I told you my thoughts.

    Solo Q needs help, adding in a global VC would help.

    Preventing peoppe from playing with their friends is not going to help. If you buff Solo's enough, you eliminate the need for a power adjustment to SWF.
