Emergency maintenance will be carried out on the Forums from 18.00hrs EDT for approximately 2 hours, there may be trouble accessing the forums during that time. Thank you for your patience.

Bring OG Dead By Daylight game mode!

Bring old dbd game mode with clicky flashlight, old dead hard, old animations… I think many people who played this game before will be happy they can remember old days, and also new players who want to see how this game looks few years ago. I think everyone wants to play old dbd. Promote this post guys, maybe they will do it someday!

    I would like to play the classic mode only because of the old maps. farm and mine as the first maps were the most atmospheric. old animations and hud are possible. but not everything else.

    Have fun with killers standing next to the hook, blocking the unlock prompt, or blocking the basement stairs by standing in the middle and going AFK. Not to mention getting insta-killed on first down from the old mori system.

    If survivors can't handle the current game, there's no way they'll enjoy the original version.

    Assuming the current BP economy would carry over, you'd be seeing quad stacked BNPs insta popping gens off the start so often I doubt it'd matter

    I would play on old maps with a dark, foggy horror atmosphere, rather than those lightened ones like now.

    I would definitely love to have the night corn maps back, just visually though. The first iterations of the Cow Tree loop were ridiculous.

    They'd have to keep the flashlight clicking out, that was changed for legitimate accessibility issues and shouldn't be brought back.

    Everything else, though, sure, I could see a limited time mode for classic DBD being interesting. It wouldn't be fun because the game was an unbalanced mess, but it'd be a neat novelty.
