Patrick Harris has left BHVR
So apparently this happened a few days ago.
It goes without saying, but I wish him all the best. It looks like he's working on the same project as McLean; a new Aliens game
Please keep it respectful, folks.

Hope it is successful like Isolation, and not make the same mistakes Fireteam Elite did.
About DesignDad leaving; I only recall that I disagreed with some posts made on the forums.

I was thinking that. Hopefully this Aliens game is to Aliens the movie, as Alien: Isolation was to Alien.

All the best to him on his new endeavours. Hopefully his replacement will bring some fresh and exciting ideas to the team.

I just hope we get a decent replacement. I know alot of people didn't like him but we can definitely get worse.
Hope he does well in his new job.

Probably a breath of fresh air to work on a completely different type of game. I imagine DbD would be a very hard game to work on. The community is extremely opinionated with a massive skill gap between top-mid-bottom tier players. And you also have to consider that there is going to be disagreement internally about the direction of the game. BHVR isn't single minded.

Best of luck to him! I thought he was entertaining on the Q&As

Rip @DesignDad I will always remember when you complimented my summary once

Damn, a shame, I've liked seeing him around on the forums and in the livestreams. Well, I certainly wish him the best in his future endeavours, and may even be more inclined to check that Alien game out when it's out knowing he worked on it.

That's a shame, the medical industry was never the same as well.

He was the only one who truly understood how entitled and childish the community really is :(

from the look of things its like that mobile alien game but on pc.
I'd pass, totally not another isolation to praise.

That's a pity. I really love the franchise.

Good luck Patrick.

The longer I read the forums the more I believe this to be the case.

Eh. Itβs not hard to see and he was certainly not the only one.

I wish him nothing but the best. π

"If you make a skilled play and you end up dying, was it really a skilled play at all?" Plus the preceding bit that was something like "players tell me they unhooked 18 people and looped the killer for 6 gens but then died at the end of the match..."
He got a lot of flack for defending MMR and comparing DBD to hockey in one of the Q&As. That said, his "last day" Twitter comment chain is friggin' hilarious and I wish him all the best on his new projects.

I like how people thought that light spinning in a chair and folded arms was condescending.

"We have no intention of making DS basekit." Plain and simple. Maybe dodging the question, but what he said came true. Any other game's community would be excited when a dev answers like that.
The hockey comparison was in poor taste, but we can't hold him to the fire just for that and a few other slights.

Lot of undeserved flack imo
Nothing of what he said was wrong and the only thing the hockey thing proved is that there is a loud part of the community that isn't bright enough to understand how analogies work

I wish him all the best and hope whoever replaces him has a different view on balancing.

Good Luck,
and let's hope he can apply all that knowledge about MMR/SBMM to another game aswell. π π
