Prestige Update Teases on Twitter
Gotta say I'm not too big of a fan of the look of it, but it's very nice that we can finally see the survivor players' characters in the tally screen

Maurice lives. That's all matter. That is best news from this tweet.

From what I got from these pictures:
- New prestige icons (depending on your level, there will be probably tiers of look - that grey damaged look seems like first few levels).
- All players will now see (instead of previous grades) your character prestige.
1 -
It's effectively confirmed that it's just a fancy icon, then. At least the UI looks nice.
11 -
If this icons comes to game, we will see those topics:
- + I am prestige 0 but i played against p20 players
- + Why i am always playing against +p10 players, matchmaking is broken
53 -
What? Where'd you get that from?
3 -
Look up on Twins screenshot. Look the name.
2 -
I look forward to continuing to not prestige.
5 -
or in end game chat "lol get a life noob" or "jesus one trick Killer", "that was not fair match, it was Nurse with prestige 80".
9 -
Well that explains my confusion. Peanits has two different names here, for some reason.
2 -
I noticed the mori thing too, thatβs interesting. Seems like they were indeed testing perks too, every perk on there is on the list of changes except for kindred on Dwight. Could have easily been a bleedout tho

Already seeing comments under the tweet asking how this is gonna change MMR and thinking these are ranks. Pain.
14 -
Not only that but 3 of them were using medkits? I wonder if theyβre getting adjusted too
1 -
Looking forward to this!
I don't know if it's just placeholder text, but I feel like it'd be better if the player name was the large font and the character name was the smaller font, but that's just a personal preference.

Even devs no click "Did you have fun?" ;)
LOL

The other two images that didn't have MauriceLives had really large strings that kind of looked like codes, but putting them in verbatim didn't register as a valid code - anyone have any ideas on if there's something hidden there? Seems a bit obtuse to be a test name...
1 -
I think it's this way around because when they add the streamer mode, you'll be able to hide your name.
3 -
Good point - that is probably the case.
3 -
Perhaps the mori rework will be coming soon. Maybe Claudette bailed on Nea at the end there.
2 -
I'm calling it that Lightweight mutes your footsteps to a massive amount
2 -
That match results screen looks kinda bad. It does say work in progress though so hopefully they change it.
0 -
I think they said during the anniversary livestream that Mori will get a change. Like... You'll be able to Mori the last Survivor without an offering or something similar. I don't remember well the details, only the fact Mori will get a change.
0 -
I assume with the new prestige levels in the end scoreboard will just result in you being called a sweaty try hard for being prestige 80 on a killer or something
3 -
I like that the end game will say what characters everyone played. The little survivor/killer icons at the end of the addons though just seem so unnecessary and out of place like they were thrown on, they should remove them - we know who is killer/survivor without those thanks to both the status icon and now the character name.
Wonder how quickly players will use prestige level as reason they had bad matchmaking because they have prestige 1 new character v prestige 10 Trapper. π
5 -
is... is that it?

I was thinking there were codes too...
0 -
the prestige icons are hopefully still worked on, they don't look that nice.
The Stlye is nice, but the graphics are very cheap looking, like a Photoshop 6 Present
1 -
All I want honestly is shards and a bloody portrait
3 -
So they're adding yet another way for people to complain about matchmaking
7 -
Even the developers give up and suicide on first hook against Twins...
26 -
I didn't remember the timeline for the Mori. That's probably too early to speak about it, and the icon was probably here to showcase them all in the end game screen.

I've noticed as well that Meg's Prestige is Silver(?) with more Entity tendrils around it yet is a lower level.
I wonder if that means every (x) prestige levels puts you back to a new colour icon up until Iridescent, i.e. Bronze Prestige 1-10, Silver Prestige 1-10, Gold 1-10, Iri 1-Infinity(?). Would fit the theme.

"Matchmaking doesn't work because I was against a prestige 10328947891 Nurse!!"
I can't wait to Prestige my Killer to Oblivion while I'm never playing them, then suddenly play Killer to be insulted because I'm prestige 8349203 and I'm a big noobie.

You guys I just want the perk overhaul informationβ¦
7 -
The only one who escaped doesn't have BHVR in their username....
Cool.
5 -
Same. The thing I'm excited for.
4 -
This is the name we know they use for test clients because they're very similar to player names used during the closed beta of DBD Mobile.
0 -
I feel like the silver colour means you've hit P3 pre-update, and the Entity tendrils signifies something else (like how close you are to level 50)
0 -
Prediction for when this goes life: about 2 posts per day going "OMG! I am just starting out as killer and the game constantly throws my poor ass at this try-hard P3 survivors who eat me for lunch. How is this even fair?!!!11".
Slight variations possible "OMG! Me and my mates are returning to DBD and the game constantly feeds us to this tryhard camping and tunneling P3 killers. How is this even fair?!!!11".
7 -
It could be that. The Silver one is 5, but some of the Bronze ones have higher numbers. Unless you hit Silver when you reach Bronze 10...
1 -
RIP Roman Numerals.
7 -
This exactly. I hope BHVR sees that this will just cause the same confusion that showing Grades did. Just show the survivor portrait or something. Any kind of number/emblem is 100% going to confuse new/casual players.
11 -
This. ^

They've also mentioned making mori's a basekit feature, possibly the final survivor if they're on death hook.

We must find him

Are you saying we will have clips to showcase the perks later this week? Oh my, oh my. I'm super excited. I was already but even more.
3 -
Until they stop putting anything other than their mmr next to their names in lobby they are going to continue confusing players. Prestige level next to peoples name is just going to mess with people who are newer to the gameβ¦again. I donβt get why this is so difficult.
8 -
When you just want to make a quick teaser and people start to analize every inch of it and get crazy...
1 -
To be fair, on one hand I can totally see that; they are testing all this updated perks, so it makes sense that they would be using them instead of your classical meta perks or builds.
ON THE OTHER HAND, during the current event we get all this lovely messages of developers, and one shared the lil secret, that she was responsible for hiding all this little secrets and needle in a haystack titbits in the official press releases and that she really liked this sneaky stuff, so take that into consideration, too.
2 -
exactly! It's kind of fascinating to read tbh. But definitely more is being read into it than there actually is.
