My steam review for DBD will stay negative until they have dedicated servers. Change my mind.

    Because one was made with dedicated servers in mind and the other one wasn't. This is like replacing a human being's entire nervous system after they're fully grown. It's complicated.

    dead by daylight was not expected to go this long, deathgarden they expected to be good (In my opinion it looks good) so in deathgarden they got dedicated servers fast while dbd could get it but its a low chance, they are expensive as hell and take some work

    Speaking of QoL stuff, when are they going to make it where when survivors die they can't see the killers perks and ad ons till end of game? So that SWF can't tell the others what perks the killer has when they die.

    It's still a work in progress. On that 2+ year completion plan.

    It's like trying to turn a car into a motorcycle. 
    It's possible. But way to much work, pricey, and the outcome would be ugly af.

    Many games still use P2P as its cheaper. Remember this was sort of the big "break-out" game that got BHVR on the map so for them to buy dedicated servers and change the game code to run on said servers it will take lots of money and time. These things cannot happen quickly.

    I agree it would be nice to see dedicated servers but I'm not holding my breath for such a thing with DBD. Perhaps down the road if this game plans on pushing a few more years or if something along the lines of DBD 2 comes out.

    Dedicated servers wouldnt fix all the problems, and would likely cause more, let alone seeing EVERYONE lag switch.

    Sure it'd be pretty neat to have dedicated servers but the game has done really damn well without them for over 2 years so, from a business perspective, what'd be the point in adding them? It's not really going to bring a bunch of people in.

    Too all of you saying "Green ping is ok" you do realize the killer always has 0 ping which means he's the priority in every aspect. Almost every game I get hit through a pallet or over a window let alone teleporting back to the other side of the window just cuz the killer hit me on his screen before I vaulted. And not to mention lag-switchers oh boi those are delightful. I have played against the same lag-switcher and reported him on different occasions but he was never banned. The amount of bullshit added to this game via p2p is ridiculous for a game this successful. And if not for the theme of this game that keeps people interested this game wouldn't be as successful for it's gameplay alone.

    I mean that's a good price to pay for tunneling I don't see why you want it gone. Don't want to happen? Stop tunneling. :)

    Huh.
    So tunneling solo players doesn't come at a cost then.

    The entirety of the DG playerbase can fit on to one server.

    Well said @Well_Placed_HexTotem. Those from DG could give their dedicated servers to dbd. Just to do a good thing

    Nope, game is coded for P2P. Just giving them to DBD will have a result like welding 2 motorcycles together and calling it a car.

    I hate so much these "change ny mind" threads with no information, research or anything to back it up that thought. You know what I mean? You have no idea what are you talking about. Not only you but every person that does this thing, "change my mind" out of laziness

    Big news boys, nobody care to change a stupid mind especially if don't even bother to do a research about the argument or get at least informed for 30s using google

    P2P wouldn't even make my top 10 list of issues for the game. Join lobby, look at ping, stay or leave if. Zero issues.

    There are several issues with that.
    1 . Too long to find good ping(60-80).
    2. Killer has advantage in ping over you no matter what.
    3. Killer dodge prolonging matchmaking.
    4. Lag switch.
    5. The game lags due to poor connection on killers side.
