Dead by Daylight Community feedback, State of the subreddit and user flairs

Community feedback, State of the subreddit and user flairs

Posted: 23 Dec 2017 03:04 PM PST

Hello people of the fog!

The past two weeks have been quite busy for all of us. Between the sudden release of the highly anticipated Wraith Update and the fight for double bloodpoints during the Winter Solstice event, two particular incidents occured that enraged the subreddit community and caused an uproar. Today, we want to address these issues, talk about some minor changes and, once again, ask for your feedback.

Monitor And Abuse

Starting with the elephant in the room, Thoughtful Thursday. I won't waste my time here and try to explain why things happened the way they did - this has been beaten to death already and won't change anything. Instead, we want to focus on the future and work together with the community to find a solution that pleases both parties involved.

We heard you. We know why Thursday is important to shitposters. We understand it. We acknowledge your negative feedback. However, we want you to be more open-minded in return and think about the people who do not enjoy shitposts. For them, Thursday is just as important as it is for you because it's the only day of the week where it's almost guaranteed that we receive new information about upcoming changes to the game. It's the day to share your opinion, give constructive feedback and make sure the developers hear you. It's an important day for everyone, but while people can enjoy their shitposts for almost an entire week, subscribers who do not like them are dependent on a more than suboptimal filter system that doesn't even work for mobile users.

Taking the full picture into consideration, Thoughtful Thursday will remain unchanged for the time being (and whoever doesn't know what this means gets a temp ban i2g). We want to keep the dialogue going and we're open to make changes based on the constructive feedback we receive. Talk to us. Share your ideas. Just. Do. It! We cannot consider people's opinions if they do not voice them. Some people actually admitted they didn't bother to give us feedback when we asked for it because they thought we wouldn't make any big changes, then Thoughtful Thursday was a thing and they cried out loud. Others preferred to come up with the craziest conspiracy theories rather than sharing their thoughts and presenting a possible solution. This is not how it works and you need to understand that giving constructive feedback and being civil will be more helpful for you and your goals than throwing insults and accusations around. We are willing to listen to you and change things based on what you say, but that heavily depends on how you talk to us.

Decisive Strike

As a result of last week's incidents, including the complaints about our lack of communication with the subreddit community, we want to suggest a monthly "State of the Subreddit" thread (switching to fortnightly if necessary) to discuss controversial topics with you, ask for your feedback and gather suggestions, ideas and wishes. We could also include some "Bloody Stats - r/deadbydaylight Edition" (e.g. growth of the subreddit in the past 6 months, a Top 10 of this month's hottest topics) if you're interested in them, maybe do some polls, demographic surveys or AMA's and share the results next time - stuff like that. We're open to pretty much everything, we just need to know if you're interested in these things.

We would really appreciate your feedback about this or other suggestions how to improve the communication.

Quick and Quiet

I'm happy to announce that we updated the user flairs today! :) I overhauled existing flairs (sharpness, brightness), added the missing Prestige characters and made them available for your use. Also, you're now able to edit the flair text! Be creative and give us a good laugh, but please don't abuse this function for spoilers, insults or other stuff that's against our subreddit rules, otherwise we have to disable it again. I'm thinking of adding the rest of the head cosmetics (Headcase, Frosty Eyes etc), though the list of flairs could be a bit cluttered until we find a solution. If you don't mind a very long list to scroll through, I'll add them as soon as possible - just tell me what you think!

Furthermore, we have a new header for the current seasonal ingame event! I included the dates for the double bloodpoints in case someone missed the Dev Stream summary. Y'all did a pretty good job fighting for this, thank you!

Save the Best for Last

Merry Christmas, subscribers of r/DeadbyDaylight! Enjoy the holidays (and the presents!), cherish the time with your beloved ones and take care of yourself. <3

See you in the fog!

Freddy's perks DO have flavor texts, but only on the official website.

Posted: 26 Dec 2017 08:21 AM PST

http://www.deadbydaylight.com/chapter7/

For those who don't want to go to the website, here are the flavor texts for Fire Up, Remember Me, and Blood Warden in that order:

"Now why don't you just fucking die?" –Freddy Krueger

"You don't remember? You must. You're my number one, and you'll never wake up again." –Freddy Krueger

"This is my world. And you can't ever leave." –Freddy Krueger

Why these aren't in the actual game, I have no idea.

Edit: Here are the texts for Wake Up, Pharmacy, and Vigil:

"Ok, look. If we survive the next 24 hours, then I'll take you out on a real date."-Quentin Smith

"Adrenaline, it's going to keep us awake. I stole it from one of the nurse's carts." -Quentin Smith

"I'm gonna be here when you wake up. You're gonna make it."-Quentin Smith

Game crashes on startup.

Posted: 26 Dec 2017 12:41 PM PST

My friends and I all started expirencing this issue at the same time. We could play yesterday. The game starts up and once you skip the cutscene the game automatically crashes with no warning or error. Are the servers down or is easyanticheat messed up?

EDIT: One of my friends verified files so we're gonna try that and see how it works. Veriying works try that if you haven't already.

Game crashing on the main menu? Here's a workaround in the meantime!

Posted: 26 Dec 2017 11:22 AM PST

So are you one of the many people affected by this bug that somehow got into the game? Well here's a workaround!

  • Go to your DBD install location (should be C:\Programfiles(x86)\steam\steamapps\common\Dead by Daylight)

  • Right click on the DeadbyDaylight Application file and select "Run as administrator"

Should work and not crash this time, worked for me.

Good Perks for SweaterBoi

Posted: 26 Dec 2017 10:34 AM PST

Does SweaterBoi need a buff? Yes, but if pick the right perks he becomes a lot more bearable. He's about on par with the buffed bing bong boi in my opinion.

Perks:

Remember Me: This perk works exceptionally well for Freddy because it's effectiveness is doubled if the survivor is in the dream state. Coupled with the tracking it's going to be very difficult for survivors to get those gates open.

Enduring: SweaterBoi has no mechanic to deal with loops, so taking Enduring will save you a lot of time and pain. Freddy's lunge is deceptively long (same as trapper, but it looks much longer because of his size), so taking risky hits can often pay off.

Ruin: Standard game slowdown perk. Effective, but can be replaced with a situational perk if need be.

BBQ and Chili: Despite being a tracking perk on one of the best trackers, BBQ and Chili is surprisingly useful. It gives you a general location of survivors which you can use to go put them in the dream state. (Also those bloodpoint gains will help you get more add-ons to improve effectiveness)

No One Escapes Death: When coupled with Remember Me or Blood Warden, No-Ed can be the difference between a 4k and a 1k game.

Blood Warden Another of Freddy's late game perks. Best used when coupled with No-Ed and not with Remember Me (Unless you're putting all or nothing on the late game).

 

Perk Loadouts:

The Standard Build: BBQ + No-Ed + Ruin + Remember Me

One of my favorite loadouts that places heavy emphasis on late game while still giving you some tools for the early match. Ruin gives you the extra time to get those hits on your obsession before the gates are powered. No-ed helps you manage survivors more effectively in the late game (As the only way to get out of the dream state late game is being woken up by another survivor, or failing a healing skillcheck). If you are struggling with pallets you may want to swap BBQ for Enduring.

You Can Never Leave Build: Blood Warden + No-Ed + Remember Me + Perk of Choice

The ultimate late game build. Incredibly fun to play, but not the most efficient at killing. As tempting as it may be, don't slug survivors for when the gates are open. It's better to hook them and patrol the gates. Blood Warden is your last resort.

I Eat Pallets Build: Fire Up + Brutal Strength + Enduring + Perk of Choice Not an effective build, but if you really have it out for pallets, this will help you smash them.

Tunnelvision Build: Dying Light + Remember Me + No-Ed + Ruin or Perk of Choice Let's say you've been stricken one too many times by your obsessions. If you can get your obsession out of the game early, this build can be absolutely cruel to survivors. If you aren't able to, it's pretty mediocre. Can be coupled with a Mori, but you're gonna get less stacks for Remember Me.

Camper mains

Posted: 26 Dec 2017 01:15 AM PST

That feel when you decide to have a Cannibal game. You hook one dude in the basement and other survivors start literally swarming the basement trying to unhook. What do you want me to do at this point? Start patrolling distant gens? Why would i? Maybe if there are 3 of you downed in the basement you should have asked yourself if you fucked up, eh? Nah, better report killer for camping. GG

Best off-meta survivor perks?

Posted: 26 Dec 2017 09:50 AM PST

I'm tired of running some of the staple perks that almost every survivor has like self-care, d-strike, sprint burst, borrowed time etc. What are some of really good or underrated perks I can run that are effective and maybe don't see too much play?
