What are your thoughts on the Chapter/Patch release schedule?

So, currently, BHVR launches a new full chapter every 3 months, giving us 4 per year. There are also mid-chapters.

My personal opinion is that this is a bit too much. There is already a lot of stuff in this game, and more often than not, the new content comes into the game buggy and half-baked. Add events and modifiers into the mix and you get the current dev cycle.

I think that 3 chapters per year every 4 months (or even less) would make it so devs have more time to update and change the things already in game, as well as make the new content better and more polished.

What do you think?

The current schedule is fine as is (4 full chapters + 1-2 mid-chapters)

    I like the updates in dbd because for me time seems to pass by so fast and generally that sucks but dbd putting a new killer every 3 days makes the time flying by a little less bad however i wouldn't say no to 4 months per chapter if the chapter introduces something mechanically different instead of recycled ideas like dracula and hound master was.

    I agree - we need a breather. I think they do too.

    Glad you agree with this. I just hope that BHVR will, too.

    (I accidentally misclicked the other option on the poll and can’t remove it, that’s why it shows me selecting the other one.)

    kind of sad there is not a more content option. 4 killers a year for 3 months a piece is a really long time and the game gets really boring fast. i would love 8 killers a year with a lot of ptbs to try out new killers if people like them or not. this is remove killers who are bad for the game but people can try them out on ptb before getting scrapped. right now we are getting killers no one asked for and ruined the game and i know a lot of them to list them all.

    its cool the devs want to make a lot of skins but for how much money they are making i would like to see more content as well. i see so much skins and legit no killers. 4 killers a year and like 20 skin bundles or so. hmmmm
