I feel so bad for the F13 players, especially the console players that can't turn to one of the mod versions that are on PC. On the Gun discord one of the devs had mentioned when F13 steam charts showed 1k players that all the console platforms had around 150k players - I'm sure towards the end that number dropped but I…

Aw I made the list, thank you :) Well done to the 3 the community managers are rewarding, definitely names I think everyone knows and as far as I know will have positive things to say about them. Hope you get enough cells to get something good :) I like seeing people that aren't content creators getting rewarded for being…

I'm glad slugging questions were in the survey. Slugging is the biggest reason I took a long break from DBD. Once I realized I spent more matches on my phone because I was being slugged rather than playing the game I knew it was time to play something else. When I came back it was for events/game modes and slugging has…
-
If the casual mode is basically identical to the regular mode, like the event, then 2 modes are pretty pointless. The event stuff really is just optional things on top of the regular game mode - and alot of times someone going in to sweat/stomp on people not wanting to play serious is just going to ignore those optional…

When they first introduced the rift they said 6 months but as others said there are skins from years ago still not in the shop. I think it has to do with a mix of character popularity and the amount of people posting on socials asking when certain rift cosmetics will finally be available in the shop.
-
Agreed, not a fan of that change at all. I miss going straight to the dev comment instead of scrolling and hoping I don't miss it because I was scrolling too fast.

Thrill is a base game perk. Pentimento, Devour, and Ruin are available on characters you can get with shards (console players get Hag for free in their version of the base game). Counterforce is from a character you have to spend real money on. Players should not be expected to counter things that are free in the base game…
-
Would be nice if matchmaking included load outs (perks/items/add ons) so someone going in with nothing and pretty weak perks isn't going against someone that's going in with strongest load out possible.
-
No to add ons. The killer adjustments for 2v8 have made a bunch of killer add ons basekit for the killers, they don't need more add ons on top of that. Plus the additional balancing that would be required for not only between the add ons and killer ability but also with another killer thrown in - that'll be a ton of…
-
For years people have been asking for a casual mode separate from the competitive players rather than everyone being put into one queue. 2v8 is definitely casual friendly, new player friendly and is a very popular mode - it's why they have extended it both times it came out and why they brought it back so quickly after the…
-
1v4 becoming more competitive is what made me stop playing DBD. Back when it wasn't so competitive there would be matches where both the killers and survivors would mess around. Alot of what made DBD fun was removed for more sweaty games. 2v8 is more chaotic and fun, it reminds me more of the old DBD I fell in love with.…
-
I mostly played survivor, usually as Escapist. I had alot of matches with 3 Scouts, the other 3 were pretty even. I think people liked the new ability to build/reset pallets. For killer Shadow and Enforcer were the two I saw the most. Brute I saw the least. When I played killer I played as Trapper using either Enforcer or…
-
They already have it if you search for a lobby as one class but get put in a lobby with a killer that was in the lobby before you with the same class the game switches your class automatically. You have a chance to choose one of the other classes that isn't chosen by the other killer but you don't get to be the same class.…
-
Same. I've been hoping they'll forget they haven't reworked it or just get distracted by something else any time it comes up.
-
Blight got buffs and Billy was given instadown in a mode where killers can 2 tap you. Billy/Blight matches are rough unless the killers have no idea what they're doing.
-
They should do OG mode that rotates different states of the game before Realm Beyond came in. Like 2016 release mode, Legion release mode, Ash release mode. Have the killers, items, addons, perks, maps, and game mechanics exactly how they were on those releases.
-
Couple years ago they did a mid-chapter patch that was only bug fixes. No killer power/add on adjustments, no perk adjustments. Just bug fixes. The Nurse got a ton of bug fixes in that mid-chapter. The forums were filled with people complaining that the mid-chapter didn't have anything new for them to try in the form of…
-
Doesn't the new Chapter come out on the 28th?2v8 extention ends when the new chapter patch comes out.
-
Imagine Deathslinger realing survivors off boxes? Or survivors needing to disarm bear traps before they can try removing their reverse bear trap? 😂
-
2v8 is extremely popular and will definitely come back. There's alot of players who started in 1v4 (including myself) that stopped playing DBD but 2v8 brought us back. It was only 3 months between the first and second iteration which was actually fairly surprising how quick it returned but very welcome for those of us that…
-
They need to remove the DC penalty when you're kicked thanks to issues on BHVRs side. I understand having a penalty if there's internet connection issues on my side - I can call my provider and work with them to fix it. There is NOTHING I can do when the issue is on BHVRs side due to their servers. The error messages even…
-
I'm so happy it got extended. 😁
-
They could try new things with boons that maybe they wouldn't do in 1v4. Ultimately it's making use of the totems around the map and giving survivors another class to mess around with. I took a long break from DBD after they added Nic Cage, 2v8 brought me back. At this point I only play 1v4 if there's a game mode I want to…
-
I love 2v8. I enjoyed the first iteration more than the second but I still have had tons of fun. I prefer it over 1v4. 2v8 is what brought me back to DBD.
-
I'll describe the 3 here. They're just basic concepts using several perks for each class. People were saying "more ways to interact with the killer" and 2 of these would create some more killer interactions. Trouble maker: Combination of Head On, Flashbang, Blastmine, and Chem Trap. Make the ability the Scout one to…
-
The problem is more people are playing killer so adding more killers is an encouragement for killers not survivors. It's giving killers more options for combos. It's not like survivors have a choice in which killers they'll face, just a "I hope they don't pick the strongest double team." They added 3 new killers and 4…
-
Using idle crows to punish people is a terrible idea as long as killer can slug survivors for longer than 90 seconds (the time it takes for 3 idle crows to appear). Unless BHVR is going to give survivors basekit Unbreakable to prevent this or just remove slugging entirely idle crows should never be the deciding factor in…
-
Trapper - how easy it is to see his traps, especially since Realm Beyond started. Old maps had a bunch of ground cover removed and were lightened (or in case of Coldwind made bright daytime map), new maps have barely any ground cover and are all so bright. It's so easy to avoid accidently running into his traps. His traps…
-
Either everyone comes for the unhook or no one comes, there's no in between. Next iteration they should add basekit Kindred (minus killer aura) so you can see who is/isn't going for a rescue.
-
This cute kitty has been hanging around outside our house. Checking with our neighbor to see if she knows if it has a home, if not the lady from the rescue we got our kitties from said she can trap/check it for chip before they start looking for someone to adopt it.
-
I'd love if they extended it an extra week, I'd keep playing DBD. If it's not extended I'm going to go play some other game until there's an event that interests me or 2v8 comes back.
-
Wish I could turn them off. They're neat the first time but after that they get super repetitive and annoying.
-
I don't get why they don't just put all the rift outfits in the store permanently. I don't see a reason why the cosmetics I earned from completing a rift can't all be in the store for auric cells and iri shards. By not putting them all in the store they're just missing out on possible sales from new players and players…
-
Don't make it a requirement to escape, that encourages survivors to play WAY more selfish which will make your regular survivors not want to play - survivors not playing isn't going to help the killer queue. With escape requirements survivors end out being useless and hiding throughout the match, they'll lead the killer to…
-
I agree but they should test that % just to be sure. 😂
-
Normally I'd be all for adding only BP offerings to the limited game modes but until they get the queue issue sorted the BP bonus is the only incentive being given to get killers to switch to survivor. Allowing BP offerings would allow the role with plenty of players to ignore the incentive to go play the other side. No to…
-
2v8 takes away the solo/duo players from the survivor role that want to play killer with someone. Making it 3v5 you now are also taking away the 3swf as well, that's not going to help the queue that is struggling to find survivors. There's nothing in your idea for 3v5 that would make survivors want to play that mode. A…
-
There's enough players for both modes, people just prefer to play killer in both. Being able to play with a teammate or friend is drawing solo/duo survivors away from the survivor queue on both sides while there's nothing except a BP bonus on survivor side to draw players away from killer.
-
Increased Healing and gen repair aren't cool abilities. They are useful but they don't add anything interesting to the gameplay to make people switch from killer to survivor. The escapist ability silenced rushed actions for 8 sections, that's an extremely boring ability that isn't too useful with all the aura reading in…
-
Take away hatchets from Huntress, give to survivors in 2v8.
-
The matches where survivors are opening chests or cleansing totems mid match haven't contributed to my survivor team losing. It's survivors avoiding gens in the middle and instead doing the ones at the far edges at the beginning or focusing on gens on one side of the map instead of spreading out between middle and other…
-
This. I'm just going to finish my gen and go find something else to do instead of hang out around a 99% gen. I also feel like doing this is just going to encourage killers to play more sweaty/rougher and I'd like to keep 2v8 relaxed and casual.
-
They gave killer side a bunch of new stuff (3 more killer options plus 4 classes) but only slightly tweaked the survivor classes from last time and added abilities - abilities that aren't something that will draw people to the survivor side from killer. Giving the side that is already more popular new things to encourage…
-
The problem is the devs haven't done anything to make survivor appealing or new when it came to this second iteration - there's enough players, people just would rather sit in a 10 minute queue than play survivor. They added 3 new killer options and gave the killers 4 classes to choose from which also didn't help the queue…
-
I'd love for them to make 2v8 permanent and rotate the killer selection every month. Always have the original 3 (Trapper, Wraith, Billy) and rotate the other 5 to keep it fresh. One of the issues they've mentioned for some killers was on the HUD having 2 killer status effects like Doctor shock and Wesker infection. If they…
-
I think basekit Kindred (minus killer auras) so people can see if someone is going for survivors in a cage or not. There are times I'm on a gen and see 3 survivors off gens and it isn't until someone is halfway through the hook state that I realize no one is going, I would've left my gen alot sooner had I known no one was…
-
Just adding that in this iteration of 2v8 you can see survivors auras when they team up on a gen. Grouping up on a gen let's killers know which gen they should probably go kick and where to find more than one survivor.
-
The other night I had a killer teammate (Huntress) that was AFK at the start of the match. I realized it after I had put down some traps and caged someone that my teammate wasn't moving. Went over and confirmed they were indeed not doing anything. Since I was playing as Trapper and had no interest in a 1v8 I decided to go…
-
Feel the same way about 2v8, I definitely prefer it to 1v4. I played 1v4 for the Halloween event and Lights Out, only played long enough to earn the rewards and then stopped playing. With 2v8 I've finished the tome challenges and now am working on old tome challenges. Once 2v8 ends I'll move on to playing something else,…
-
Instead of focusing on what killers they'll add next they need to instead focus on the survivor classes and making survivor more appealing. Adding more killers to the mix isn't appealing to survivors, it's appealing to killers and encouraging more to play killer over survivor. They need to really focus on getting the both…
