The Continued Ignorance of Performance Issues Continues to Hamper Player Fun

How are you getting bad performance?
Your PC is better than mine but I hit 90-120fps consistently throughout the game no matter what map.
* Ryzen 3 2200G
* GTX 1660 Super
* 90-120fps everywhere at all times while streaming
Stuttering does happen every now and then but they are very small microstutters that only take a fraction of a second.

ย "Oh no; they need more time to fix bugs. Heaven forbid! It's been 2 years so it should all work because some person on the internet who has 0 clue how it works says it should work!ย ๐" That's what I was told and it's these comments that keep the game in it's poor state.

Nah, they just fried it.
Zip bombs and stuff.

Wow you play Nemesis even tho the game is at its worst then?
You must really like him. As someone who mostly plays survivor now I really dislike him because of the freezes. I wonder If I'll change my mind if they fix the game.
I love re and after what happened I hardly like anything re related in dbd. And how hyped we were right? Map, I won't even go there to spare you. Claire...
This was supposed to be one of my favorite chapters and it ended up to be the worst.

Sorry, I just saw your comment.
They just fried my router. They didn't leak my IP or anything, not that that would do much.

They really are false promises, but God, 2 years and still no news, we really have to shout so that we are heard.

Just reminding everyone that it isn't a good time on current-gen systems at the moment. Seems like some people thought it was fine.
Also, Crotus Prenn maps on Console are a nightmare. Can we please remove all the extra smoke and particle effects? They make my Xbox want to explode.

General performance issues are supposed to be resolved on July 27?

People think the game runs fine now? Lol.
And about your router I had to google that because I never heard of that hack. And wow. I don't even know If I should be surprised or not considering how people are tbh.

I wanna play Nemesis so bad. But, it's impossible.

It's been acknowledged before.

Dead By Daylight attracts some of the best and some of the worst people.
It's just how it is.
3 -
Yeah,that's my average experience as Nemesis on PS4.
Not really fun to get screwed by FPS drops every time you use your power ๐๐๐

I don't understand how it works, but if there's a lag spike mid-pounce as Victor you just don't move but it counts it as a missed pounce...HOW!? You don't even move???
4 -
I don't really understand why Behavior fell behind on this or dropped it. They must have addressed it a long time ago... To this day I suffer with Raccoon City and I refuse to play on that infernal map.

I've been here (lurking) since October-ish of 2018.
They say things and just never do them and we never find out why.

A Pig chased a survivor around me while I was in a locker and it made me drop so many frames and I don't even understand how.
Seriously, what happened, game? The Exhaustion perk and the hits, that I understand, but I was sitting in a locker watching these two randomly pause in place every few steps then teleport, staring at all of out below-60 pings, wondering how the chase around a pallet-free Temple Pillars tile was dragging on for so long. Well, I guess I know how, but still. Lemme leave and not be subjected to the slideshow of horror.
Also ######### RBT boxes, they can go die in a hole full of scorpions. Tiny scorpions. Tiny scorpions being ridden by termites. With guns.

Playing Twins on console is pretty hard rn, but they're my fav and its still fun to play them.
I just hope the incoming patch on the 27th really helps the game, but I'm not gonna have my hopes up yet.
6 -
I'm still playing, I love this game too much that it's hard to stay away from it lolol.

Just lost all of my points in a multi-cake match where I escaped as survivor because of a RANK UPDATE error. Disheartened and feeling like quitting after that.

Yesterday I played against a Trickster. I was being chased at a loop. I got away from a pallet to get some distance (he was chasing me also away from a pallet), I got a huge freeze and suddenly he was next to me (and he walked into a wall). After that I got downed.
I saved the clip because I wanted to watch it later, and when that huge freeze happened ingame, the video just skips a bit and the moment I got a lagspike and he walked into a wall is just missing from the clip (I didn't edit it, he just out itself skipped that moment).
It looks like the game did something with the recording or the HDD died for a few seconds and then got back into recording.

As long as you get some enjoyment out of it. I am having fun with streets of rage 4 dlc atm while I wait.

Ohhh man I know that feeling.

I loaded up the PS4 version of DBD on my PS5 so the last two prestige trophies could pop on that version and I was greeted with this:
Why is Nemesis so blurry? Iโm not expecting 4K quality but I donโt remember the game ever looking this bad. Is it trying to reach 60 FPS and just sacrificing resolution to do so? This isnโt even on the PS4 console. This is being played through backwards compatibility, so I would think itโd take advantage of the PS5โs strength and look better than this. Unless this is part of the issues the RE chapter brought to last gen consoles?
Hereโs a screenshot of the PS5 version for comparison:

Can't say anything about PS5 but the game got quite blurry on PS4 for some reason.
Don't know if it's FPS or related anything,but it really feels like i'm playing something between 480p and 720p

I haven't played in over a week. Logged in once just to get the bp/shards then closed out and played something else as soon as I made sure they went through. I'll check it out once patch goes through but until then I have 0 patience to put up with the performance issues.

Same now I only play because my friends force me to

I had blink problems yesterday with Bubba in Crotus Prenn. The chapel to be exact. For the next one I will document everything through OBS Studio.

I was really only playing with my swf teammate, if I played solo was to get a few killer challenges done. He finally finished the rift so we're both taking break from DBD. I got him to start playing the Outer Worlds so that helped. ๐

And would that address the issues brought on by the RE chapter and the two patches since, or the two plus years of issues all over this thread?
1 -
There's nothing else to do other than wait and see
1 -
At least the first one. If not, I don't think I am the only one who will give up.
I don't expect them to make the game run better than pre re chapter, I am actually pretty sure of it knowing bhvr. There is no chance that will happen imo.
So the best we will get is pre re state or less. I would love to be wrong but I just can't believe it atm.
1 -
but you never know, maybe they'll surprise us and fix everything even though the chances of that are very slim. I'm only trying to think positive.

I'm not sure if there's people talking about performance on pc here as well, but I can see why DBD is not exactly running perfectly on console, that's because even on pc this game is currently poorly optimized. I am currently playing with a GTX 2060 + SSD + I7 10750H. With that I usually got to play above 90 FPS (which to be fair, it's kinda of an issue by itself considering how old this game is), but I started to notice that the game struggles to keep a stable frame depending of where you're in a map, of which killer you're playing and what action is currently being performed ingame (dead hard, killer's m2, etc) the worse case was when my game dropped from 90 something FPS to 52 for no apparent reason during a chase, and even though it's a minor problem in comparison with what's happening on consoles, that shows that the problem is happening everywhere. If a game from 2016 can't keep a stable performance on a modern pc, ofc it won't be able to do it on a old console as well. At this point I would recommend BHVR to just release a optimization update instead of a new killer. It seems the more stuff they add it, the worse it gets performance wise. Very soon you will need a gtx3080 and a ps6 to run this game with a good performance if the performance keeps getting a hit everytime they release something new.

Well, it should address everything in General. But this discussion and thread must remain active here for a long time until the developers accept our demands.
3 -
Just watch out not to get your hopes up too much so you don't get severely dissapointed. Which is not unusual when it comes to bhvr.

The closer we are to 27th the more I dread that nothing will be fixed.

Fingers crossed ๐ค

The RE chapter has caused some major issues for me. Im running a decent system with the RTX 3070 and ive never experienced these frame drops, stutters, and crashes until the new chapter. These on top of the server lag and teleporting is making the game less fun to play. This is part of the reason I've decided to partake in the decision, as has many others, to not buy DLC for the next few months. Stuff needs to change.
5 -
Appreciate you or any of our PC cousins stopping by and relating your experiences. On console we've been dealing with many of those same issues you describe for years now, just look back in this thread to before RE came out for some choice examples.
If decent PC rigs have trouble running DBD well that doesn't make me feel too good about console's chances, even the newer machines. What is it about just this game??
2 -
Yup, nothing better then stuttering while the survivor then gets tons of distance. Or the good ole lagging into the killer

When I saw the Bloodhunt is scheduled for 29th I just thought that is such a jinx. Hopefully if mid-chapter doesn't fix the performance issues they'll postpone the bloodhunt but unfortunately I doubt they'll do that, will just be another thing we miss out on. ๐
2 -
or maybe they'll extend the bloodhunt. Not that it would do anything but...

You guys are really patient. I kinda feel sad for you being ready to wait even more if they don't deliver on 27th.
27th is my limit. I am already not playing, if I can't play on 27th with no freezing, I am done waiting.
7 -
I haven't played DBD at all in over a week, and before that I was already barely playing - I really just played to help my swf teammate finish rift and to grab some crowns in the event. I put in years/thousands of hours into this one game - I'd like it to improve so I can enjoy playing it again. Until the Evil Dead game or Back 4 Blood comes out (whichever comes first) I'll wait to see if devs actually improve the console experience - once those games are out if DBD is still not optimized for console I'll be moving on since I will be able to play those games with my swf teammate.
4 -
I'd rather they postpone until performance issues are fixed to atleast pre-RE chapter quality. Extending is nice but it'd be like current event - players couldn't play so they extended it and players still couldn't play.
1 -
I picked up Overwatch again recently (big mistake i know) and I forgot about how much better it runs.
8 -
Yea know, same haha. Its BHVR we're talking about and it's so comically sad how it took them this long to publicly state that a "fix" will be coming.
I'm not even having my hopes up at all.
1 -
that's true. There's a lot at stake here going into the 27th, BHVR needs to get this right if they wanna keep the player base high. If they fail to deliver than it's gonna be BAD.
2 -
PC player here with an rtx 3070, 9900k, and 32gb of ram. Game still runs like ######### hoping this optimization patch fixes things.
