From a ps4 killer
Are consoles ever going to get the changes and fixes it deserves or are we going to continue being a cash grab that in the long run don’t matter i am still getting black splinter bug a bug that’s a reoccurrence from 3 years ago I own all dlc and if I’m not mistaken weren’t they removed out of the game? Sometimes 3 webs in a row and can’t get rid of them unless I take them. Sounds are still an issue big time on ps4, hearing downed survivors right at your feet when they are 30 m away. So when are console players going to get their needs for fixes taken care of this is ridiculous?

I'm just hoping and praying they finally give console players the 60 FPS we need. And, a fix to playing Demogorgon causing the FPS to dip everytime Demo decides to growl a little

I've been playing for 2 years and the graphics and frame rate haven't improved once. I don't understand why they ported this to console if they weren't gonna care about it the same as PC. Just seems like a cash grab to me anymore. Prove me wrong devs, please.

The old ones still exist it just none were made for the newer DLC's.
Fixes are constantly being worked on but it's not a simple process of change x to fix y. The game itself needs a lot of optimisation especially on console.

We need as a community to start speaking up and stop taking it for what it is. I’m tired of pc players having the run of things I understand it’s a pc port but that doesn’t mean us console players don’t have a say. Ptb everything is decided on what’s best for game by people who are pc only and dc in a test server. We can’t say ######### about it until live release and because we are the minority player base it don’t matter. Imagine if they unlocked content on all platforms for the same duration as a ptb server is up then lock it to make fixes that way we all get a say in the development of the game. And don’t get me started on how patches for pc get pushed to console and breaks the game for console.

It looks like they might have fixed Oni's control issues with the 3.4.2 hotfix. Maybe this will pave the way for more console optimization?

I agree, we do need access to the PTB on console. Though, people do claim that they can't do that due to Sony/Microsoft needing to essentially accept changes. But, I find that a little strange since on Xbox, Sea of Thieves has a Test Server which operates like DbD's PTB, so I don't accept that reason we don't have access to the testing. A perfect example of why testing needs to be done on consoles as well would be Oni. They had to hotfix the controlling of him during his power, which had it been tested on consoles, I feel it wouldn't have been needed today.

I've played dbd on ps4 for over a year and a half now and i've seen both good and bad things. personally, i'd love to see them fix certain things like the FPS or other in game issues. the console community probably has to speak up more for BHVR to really pay attention to our needs, but i wouldn't expect anything soon because i'm sure both dbd mobile and dbd for the nintendo switch have a lot of issues as it is, so they might focus on that first then get to the bugs on console.

The only thing I ask as a console player is that the game runs as well as pc.
I mean... c'mon.. PS4 can run battlefield with a milion players in a match with amazing graphics but struggles to run a 4V1? I understand Behavior doesn't have as much money as EA or other big game developers/publishers... but c'mon guys.. we deserve some love as well! We pay for the DLC like everybody else but we have less options, worse controls, lower frame rate AND constant frame drops.
The console optimization that was promissed never actually happened. So yeah... that kinda sucks.

PUBG also has a test server there is no excuse for it tbh. Totally agree and I may not be a big name here on the forums but I’m all about helping get the word out to better the game for console players I love the game but things like abuse of matchmaking with swf is getting out of hand like seriously I thought they fixed the whole highest rank determines killer rank guess that only pertained to swfs with red ranks because since the update I haven’t gotten a red rank but at rank 15 got 3 rank 8 and a rank 13 2 of the 3 8s were on the followers of the rank 13 then I got a full rank 8 survivor lobby at rank 13. And if I dc because matchmaking stacks against me like that I get punished. Before dishing out penalties how about fixing why these dcs are happening like matchmaking.

I've encountered the same thing. Even the matchmaking seems broken for me. I've been getting all red ranks even though I'm green (Rank 11). I don't mind going against them, since they didn't seem too great at the game overall, but if this is happening for a green, what is it doing to the lowest ranks? There are so many problems lately and I adore this game, as frustrating as it is at times. I just want to see this game succeed and be in a stable position after so long

Yeah but mobile and switch are new to this we’ve been dealing with this for a whil, another thing I’d like to see is regional prioritization in match making because going against (no offense) sweaty laggy Eu players all day kills me.
do you remember mag? 256 people in one game at the same time barely any issues that was early ps3 days too.

Yes but if I did you grammar nazis wouldn’t have a purpose.
(I intended not to use the apostrophe in wouldn’t but iPad autocorrect feelsbad for you man.)

This is straight up false.I started over a year ago and the frame rate is definite;y better than it was back then

im actually getting a splinter bug similar to the black one where instead of the black splinter im getting the smoking one for Freddy and yes i own all of the killers.

Not on ps4 unless you have some magical version of the game....

Same exact thing here, rank 11 getting matched with all red ranks for the last couple weeks. And for me at least they usually are pretty damn hard matches, like sometimes lucky if I get two hooks.
1 -
I know the feeling. Whenever I have matches like that I know for sure it's higher ranks. It's one of the reasons I always try avoid going higher than 10 on both Survivor and Killer because those ranks just aren't fun for me, and being matchmade to them is even less so
1 -
You do realize the title says as a ps4 killer right even though it’s a universal discussion thread. Thanks for your insight thougH. Also I started 2.5 years ago and it’s barely different.
1 -
Survivor feels better but killer hasn’t improved much at all and has got worse in some ways with the new content added.
Demogorgon can be as bad to play as Doctor used to be.
Sound has been messed up since the Legion update that upgraded the Unreal Engine.

Yea. I play on PS4 and when I started playing right after Spirit release it was near impossible to play consistently as Killer because turning, alone, caused FPS drops.
You can say you've been playing for 2.5 years but that doesn't mean exaggerating or disregarding changes makes you correct.

It also depends on what your connection compared to my connection is not many people run 200+MB’s on ps4 dbd so for me it’s been barely noticeable.
and I don’t feel I was over exaggerating anything it legitly doesn’t feel any different to me remember fps is also based off of your own connection to everyone else in the lobby if you play survivor you are one of 4 people sharing a split connection from one killer which in the current state of the game is the host.
and what changes to fps and connectivity are you referring too the 3 times in 2 years failed attempt at dedicated servers for console? but switch has them already, open your damn eyes ps4 and Xbox are nothing but money grabs from dlc and only reason switch and mobile are getting attention first is because it’s more new players which means more money this company only cares about what makes them money.
