Kill Switch update: We have temporarily Kill Switched the Forgotten Ruins Map due to an issue that causes players to become stuck in place. The Map will remain out of rotation until this is resolved.

Dbd is in a horrid mess and every update it gets worse

The code has clearly gotten worse to where hotfix's are causing problems now.


The supposed optimization that was partially fix actually got worse, pyramid head has another audio bug, twins had add-on text changed, some bugs being fixed but not really being fixed, etc


I could only handle 2 survivor games until I just gave up as the fps would basically nerf all of my perks (it's even affecting dead hard on console now), however the point I wanna make is how this is the 3rd chapter update in a row to be almost unplayable due to bugs and it's not even funny to think about that, every game gets bug yes but not this many bugs per update, I've been around since October of 2017 and I have patiently waited for the supposed optimization update that was announced for consoles over 2 years ago I believe, console really needed it and it seems that this is proof that it has gotten much worse.

The last thing I want is this game to collapse on itself but it's starting to turn into another cyberpunk from how it feels to play

    A lot of people are still able to play. I don't think last gen is their priority atm. I know they are trying something but I don't expect a "fix" anytime soon after the last one made it even worse. I hope I'm wrong.

    We don't have any other choice but to wait. Some people are still playing despite the issues but some gave up for now, including me. I just log in for shards.

    Last gen was never their priority.

    Yeah I'm done buying any new content/cosmetics until they get their ######### together. Seeing as DBD is currently at its peak, Bhvr likely won't notice that now. But how many of those new players will stick around? How many will be as loyal and financially supportive as I have been over the past 4 years?

    I guess we'll find out.

    I don't think they will lose much by ditching us, new players will come and they will spend. They have the monopoly.

    And at least half of last gen players will just continue playing either on pc or new consoles.

    I've never seen it this bad. I'm constantly booted from the game with different error messages. While playing, I sometimes get moved to different spots. I'll be running in one direction and then suddenly, I'll be back where I started. Sometimes I can't move at all and I'm just frozen in place.

    A killer who had given up the chase, one time, turned around and came back for me when he saw that I suddenly froze. I just had to sit there helplessly and watch him kill me. I'm on pc. Something is definitely wrong. It didn't used to be like this. It's just recently that all this weird stuff started happening on a regular basis.
