What's One Thing You'd Bring Back?

Options

Dead by Daylight has changed a lot throughout the years. Both killers, survivors, killer perks, survivor perks, and everything else has been changed or changed throughout the years.

So if there has anything that you'd like back in the game, what would it be?


Examples if you're confused: Fast vaults always, the old Borrowed Time, The Moon Bouquets, double pallets, old insta-heals, etc etc...

    Hmm... well... I started in October 1st 2018... the only things that changed for me was Old DS, Borrowed Time, Fast Vaults (slightly), Old insta-heals, and NOED... I think?

    Other small nerfs also but idk.

    Personally, i'd really like Legion to be back to the way he was with of course a few things different... like please no to the old add-ons like Franks Mixtape... but I liked the gimmick he had where he relied on damage over hooking while also having a M/S of 4.4...

    To me, he felt like a "Rush down Killer" rather than how he is now with the regular 4.6 movement speed... his power just seems like something that keeps everyone in check now, when before this was a side thing... the real thing he gave off in Pre-Nerf was the "rush down" feel he had... if that makes sense.

    If felt like he was rushing down a certain Survivor (not tunneling...) and was also hitting other Survivors... it added pressure in my eyes and felt like he was unpredictable.

    Yeah, you’re right. But The End Game Pig nerf was necessary.

    What she really needs though aren’t nerfs OR buffs, but a whole rework.

    Common and Ultra-Rare perk rarities.

    The current system just looks weird aesthetically and 1000 bp more or less isn't too big of a change in value IMO.

    Indeed, I don't know why but it just had something to it that makes me want it back.

    Maybe you liked it because that's the old engine the game used to run on...

    Things looked a lot different before the engine switch and several lighting and aura effects were changed as well. People have adjusted to it though, so it's hard to say if anyone else feels the same way.

    I personally don't mind either way, but I think the new engine brings more possibilities to the table... so... there's that.

    It could mostly be because of the lighting... it was kind of unique... I guess.

    The Moon Bouquets I really liked as you could create new game play. They were only abused by Blendettes, but that's an entirely different problem that still needs fixing.

    +1 to this, all the moonlight offerings actually.

    Haddonfield just looked aesthetically amazing with Brightest moonlight for example. If they were still in the game and supported by all the new maps I wonder how many of the newer maps would look with different levels of lightning.

    One thing as survivor: Visible ranks in lobby.

    One thing as killer: Original Tinkerer. God I miss that perk.

    The ability to see survivor ranks in the lobby. It was so useful since it let me know if I was about to be put into a game with low ranks or high ranks.

    I kinda want to see exhaustion slowly recover while running again. I can see it being potentially balanced if they increased the time you were exhausted for

    Gods no. Shelter Woods was horrific with a New Moon Bouquet, and could you imagine Sanctum of Wrath made even darker? I had old Lightborn on Shelter Woods with a New Moon once, and I literally couldn't see ANYTHING.

    I honestly can't think of anything that was removed that I actually want back. I mean, vacuum pallets were fun as survivor, but SO broken. I definitely wouldn't want old mori back either, and NONE of the Hag changes should EVER be reverted.

    I think some of the changes need some tweaks, for sure. I think the Styptic should give the full 15 seconds of BT instead of just 8, as one example.

    The time before servers!

    The time when lobbies (at least for survivor on PC) were usually under 30 seconds!

    I miss when you either hit a killer with a pallet or a killer hit you before you threw it. Not both.

    I don't want to go back to a time when it really sucked to be a killer, I just want to rewind to the point to where the hits felt fair and I could get into a game quickly.

    Decent matchmaking would be nice too!

    3 o'clock skill checks, though not by default, perhaps as a new madness effect for the upcoming doctor tweaks.

    Just more madness symptoms to mess with survivors :)

    I mean I'd be fine with it if only the moonlight offerings that made the map brighter existed as well. Because I used them all the time even as survivor just because a lot of maps looked nice with brighter lightning 😄. So if no New Moon Bouqet, that's still fine with me.
