Probably because they're all console users. It's not very useful to us PC users (as most of us just use DLSS anyway), but for console use I can imagine FSR being really good. It's also fantastic for handheld PCs like steam deck, ROG Ally, Legion Go, etc that use AMD APUs. I use FSR and RSR all the time if the game supports…

Gonna be honest, this feature shouldn't have been added. It's basically in beta and there are so many ways they could've gone with the idea on day 1. But right now it just comes off as an extremely lazy cash grab for Chucky skins. I realize BHVR wants to make money and that's fine.. but even that is a failure in its…
-
This is still a bug, no idea what triggers it. Couldn't find any other posts about it than this one. I've had it happen 2-3 times in the past few months. Super rare but happens
-
It's more about playtime than skill. Grades/ranks were tied to resets which would set them back, meaning if someone was a low grade then it could mean they're experienced but just haven't played in a while. Prestige levels have no such thing, so if someone isn't above P0 there's a decent chance theyre fairly new or don't…
-
I do think prestige levels should be hidden from the killer though, just not from other survivors. If there's 2 people with no prestige while the other 2 are p9+, there's a chance the killer targets the survivors with no prestige which isn't really fair, but I also can't blame the killers for doing it because of the #########…
-
Well yeah, that situation is completely different. I'm not gonna dodge all Rebecca and Adas when the new DLC is out lol. But using that as a basis for any characters that have been out for a long time is more like an educated guess (which tends to be right most of the time). The only other exceptions I can think of might…
-
I hope they don't hide prestige levels. Having prestige 20+ or whatever still isn't an indication of skill or whatever (I had a p19 Steve in my game tonight that DCd on first hook against a terrible Blight). But I'll almost always dodge people that are p0 cuz they likely haven't put much time into the game and probably…
-
I kinda like the half bra Kate top just cuz of how ridiculous it looks lmao, so I bought it. I also bought the Feng and Yun Jin full outfits with shards so I can't really complain
-
Ruin and Pop aren't used much anymore, but other than that the meta is basically the same. It's even closer to how it used to be now that they brought back the Pain Resonance + DMS combo which a lot of people are using again lol. The survivor meta was mostly changed, but the killer meta wasn't.
-
I'm not saying it's a bad game, I actually liked it a lot for what it was, but it's nearly forgotten in time already and no one suggests playing it whenever RE is brought up which is why it's considered a flop. I personally think it's a great co-op game, but if people consider it a bad RE game then it's pretty much a flop…
-
It was always meant to be a meme rather than a serious VN/dating sim. If it wasn't obvious already, you'd notice if you checked what the last game the dev made was : I Love You Colonel Sanders (the KFC VN). I wasn't expecting much honestly
-
I really don't think licenses are an issue cuz the entire RE series is owned by Capcom , but they likely go with whatever's the most recognizable or popular, so RE2R/3R/4/5. 6 flopped and I feel like 7 and 8 are too new to be iconic. I'd love to have an adult Sherry skin though, she's one of my favorite playable characters…
-
I appreciate that they're fixing RPD.. but it should've been fixed a year ago lol. Part of me feels like we could've had a new RE map by now if they had fixed the old one a lot sooner.
-
The names have to be reported through the platform. Only steam/psn/Xbox/etc can really do anything about it and they'll probably only take reports seriously if the name is truly offensive. I don't think BHVR can do anything about it because they have no control over what people set their name as
-
I get why you care and if it happened to me I'd probably be frustrated too, but in the end it's just a twitch chat. You weren't banned from anything truly important
-
I get why people think that daily rituals are like this to get you to play the opposite role of what you're used to.. but personally I think it's just really old/outdated game design that they never got around to changing Deathgarden (another BHVR game) had the perfect system for daily rituals and it should've migrated…
-
48k because all of the good outfits have been cells only lately. If the new upcoming outfits cost shards I'll probably spend them though
-
I have no idea how they manage to get away with screwing up faces for licensed characters for so long. If I were Capcom I'd be pissed and demand they fix it lol. Seriously, how did they manage to make Quentin a goblin for years, and then screw up Cybil and Claire so badly? Then there's Nancy's face which they managed to…
-
Buffing BT actually makes tunneling easier, because no one uses BT anymore since a mini version of it became basekit. 5 seconds is easier to wait out, so the only way you're less likely to get tunneled is by running OTR
-
They aren't doing it to manipulate statistics or convince the devs to revert the patch. If that was anyone's goal, there's a far easier way to get the devs to rebalance the game.. and that's to review bomb the game on steam. It's happened before and it was effective, but it's not happening this time so I don't think that's…
-
It was the survivor version of BBQ so yes. I ran it in all of my builds since it was the only way to get a halfway decent amount of BP. It was also (and still is) a useful perk in SWF. It was probably used less in solo queue
-
I was playing trapper earlier and thought the opposite. It felt like I had a lot of breathing room and didn't even need to run much slowdown in my build to play him effectively. Before patch, the few times I would play him I'd feel like I needed corrupt intervention on him. After the patch, that was no longer necessary and…
-
It was disabled because a lot of people lost progress after merging. Probably better that it's disabled currently if it became that big of an issue
-
There was a very long period of time (years) where tunneling and camping wasn't the meta. Yes it will still probably always be a thing, but BHVR can definitely make changes to the game that reduce the frequency back to where it's an acceptable level again. It only became meta about a year ago
-
Inner healings only advantage over Pharmacy is if it's used in mid chase, but that requires the killer to not find you and usually requires quick and quiet to pull it off consistently. Otherwise I think it's actually worse due to the amount of time wasted cleansing a totem.. and you're screwing over anyone using boon perks…
-
I strongly believe the people that say pharmacy is useless or worse than before haven't actually played extensively with the new pharmacy. It's far from useless. I'm not saying that it's meta or an amazing perk, but it's good enough that I've been using it in my loadout for the last 20 matches or so and I see benefits from…
-
I wouldn't say pharmacy is really nerfed unless you're using it very situationally. If you were only using it for the chest speed/noise bonuses then yes it's a nerf, but the only halfway decent reason to use it for that alone is if you were combining it with plunderers. I think the use of the perk changed rather than it…
-
Yeah, and this is why people should stop prestiging past p10. I say p10 because the max conversation capped at p9 and you could get to p10 at the cost of one bloodweb and 20k. But anything after that is just a complete waste of BP. Not even worth it for bragging rights. Wait until BHVR fixes the grind for items/addons so…
-
Eh, I already came across my first hacker in one of my lobbies yesterday. P100 Steve named Nicki Minaj. I instantly dodged that lobby lol. Figured it'd happen eventually. I just feel like it's so pointless to prestige after P9 right now until they fix the grind for items/addons
-
Wait until you max out every character and just want items/addons. That's when the real grind begins. It'll cost many millions of bloodpoints just to get a few rare items/addons lol. I know they addressed that something will be done about it in a future patch but damn that's something that they really overlooked. Good luck…
-
This is why I haven't bothered leveling past prestige 10. To even get the entire roster from p9 to p10 (after conversion) it takes more than 3 mil bloodpoints because the level 50 bloodwebs got reset.. I don't want to waste tons of BP just to get good items/addons. I'll wait until BHVR improves the bloodweb system
-
Epic and Stadia are desperate to get people to use their platforms so I imagine BHVR had no issues at all working with them. Sony, MS, and Nintendo however.. they're in no need for more people to switch to their platforms so I'm guessing they're greedier. I'm still confused why Switch progression got halted though, they…
-
It's because no one really uses it and it only potentially becomes useful late game (or mid game if you're really lucky). A green medkit with healing perks like desperate measures or botany mixed with built to last is a far superior build, it just sucks that botany doesn't work as well with it anymore and it requires a…
-
Until you use Overcome against a plague.. and then you've got a wasted perk slot lol
-
The characters are, not the outfits
-
If I see someone with no prestige level and default cosmetics.. I'm just gonna assume they're new, so I get why they'd dodge. Had a claudette that absolutely shouldn't have been matched with me, no prestige and default cosmetics.. they were new. Sometimes assumptions are correct. Most of the people I've been matched with…
-
Yep, the only reason to prestige them were for the perk charms or bloody cosmetics. It's a waste for the first 3 prestiges.
-
They teased the charms, not the actual outfits. They keep teasing really small things, like the AoT charms or the rabbit (tome) today which is making me think it'll be next week. I wouldn't mind it being tomorrow, I'd just expect bigger teasers if it's gonna be that soon
-
That's what I did. I think I'm down to 384 on him. I don't consider it a mistake though, he's really fun to play.
-
It's their biggest update yet, I can see them doing it on the 26th/27th. They risk getting really harsh criticism if something is broken or not finished on release
-
I don't think there is going to be any kind of bonus. The portraits are the reward, nothing more. Also I decided to get everyone that I can to prestige 1 on my console account since I don't play much on there, unless the character has close to 120 perk tiers. If your goal is to reach P3 after the update, 120 perk tiers…
-
There's the chance it gets delayed for another week because the prestige system is something they shouldn't wanna screw up. The prestige system also isn't something they can fix after the update goes live without reverting everyone's progress. Perks they can easily change afterward though. It's likely the biggest update…
-
I'd believe 62, but not 88. At 62 that person probably has at least 12k-15k hours.
-
That doesn't sound right. I have 10k hours and have devotion 41. Maybe most of their hours were spent idling and not playing
-
I saw some early gameplay footage of Texas Chainsaw Massacre and it looked really really bad. It was pretty early footage though so who knows, maybe it'll get better. I think the best options for currently active/updated games are VHS and Evil Dead. It's a shame that the queue times are screwed if you're on the west coast…
-
BHVR look at the monster that you've created!
-
20 devotion isn't much. I think most big streamers or long term players that have stuck around since the game launched have at least 30. I've been playing regularly for 6 years and have 40 devotion lol. It's sad but I don't really expect anything out of it. The issues you talk about are also real, I think a small bonus for…
-
Yes, they keep their level. At least they did in the PTB
-
I used to compete all of them but got lazy with the SAW tome and never went back to finish it, but that was because I was doing that rift on both my PC account and PSN account so I kinda got burned out after finishing the rift twice, plus it's no longer necessary to finish most of the challenges since the rift fragment…
-
Yeah it's complicated. I've never heard of a success story where someone unlinks knowing the consequences and is satisfied with it so I usually tell people to avoid doing so. Honestly the cross progression system is so fragile to begin with I wouldn't mess with it lol. I can't even login anymore (on any browser, even if I…
