Can we remove the No-Mither sign for killers?

Posted: 26 Mar 2018 11:37 AM PDT

Hey everyone <3 I love playing with No-Mither, but I feel like it's a little bit flawed. The cons are stronger than the pros.

Pros would be:

  • no blood trail
  • 50% reduced sound
  • can get up from dying state,
  • no waste of time with healing & works well with eg. Resilience.

Cons would be:

  • only 50% reduced sounds, - could work with eg. Ace, whose whining isn't that loud. If I play with Meg I have to use Iron Will, because killers with good headphones will still hear you. Especially if they use Stridor.

  • One-hit-down, which is natural if you're playing with that perk. Basically exactly why I love this perk, because I enjoy playing extra stealthy for some games

  • No-Mither - Symbol: You're the first one to die, as soon as the killer has spotted you once. The killer is constantly reminded that you're playing with this perk. They all know you can get up from dying state (except maybe r20 killers, but I don't think many in rank 20 play with No Mither?), and will hook you instantly. Never have I ever seen a killer that didn't instantly hook me, even if he slugged everyone else.

I really want No - Mither to stay a challenge, but I think the symbol basically kills the idea of being able to get up. Maybe there could be another positive aspect, that doesn't depend solely on the killer? I don't know! Slugging isn't part of every game, so you'll already need luck for that. But with that symbol I was never able to use this in all of my playtime. Even though I play with No Mither ALOT. Of course I understand that it's important for other survivors to know, that they can not heal you. Anyways, yes: a good killer may remember that you started the game already hurt. But if it's a longer game, if there are other people with your character/clothes you may have a chance of him being confused. Or maybe he doesn't instantly think of No-Mither if he sees that you're hurt later in the game. I usually play random, so -.. maybe I'm wrong and I'm the only one bothered with this :/ But I thought it could be a suggestion.

About the copy game Identity V.

Posted: 26 Mar 2018 10:17 AM PDT

Some of you guys may have already heard a Chinese mobile game called Identity V, and I know you may suspect this game is a rip-off of dbd. (Here's one suspect.) Yes. It is. Though it's a shame to admit, IV IS A COPY GAME. As a Chinese dbd player, IV makes me furious and almost heart-broken. I can't believe Netease(the developer company of Identity V) would do such shitty thing. And trust me guys, I'm not the only Chinese player who thinks so. Some of us have tried to talk with Dbd developers for several times. However, they didn't response to our question for some unknown reason. So after considering carefully, some Chinese dbd fans and I decided to list out the detailed evidence about IV's rip-off. We've already done it, and it takes some time for us to translate it into English. We'll post it on reddit in a few days. At last, I'd like to say sorry to everyone here. The problem of rip-off is very serious in China, and I feel so sorry about lettin it happen on dbd. But guys. Trust me. There are still lots of Chinese dbd players fighting for the game we love. Sorry. (My English is not very good. So if there's any place you can't understand, just ask me.)

Stake out needs fix

Posted: 26 Mar 2018 06:21 AM PDT

Using a token of stake out now will reset your timer, so if you have one token and 1s away from second, it will completely reset to 0 tokens. This bug makes stake out weaker than it actually should be, please fix

Did You Know...

Posted: 26 Mar 2018 05:48 AM PDT

•Running while Exhaustion is in effect slows it down by 50%, so don't always run!

•The Nurse suffers from a real life condition called stridor, which affects the breathing. Funny enough, one of Nurse's perks is called Stridor, which also affects the breathing of survivors.

•Wraith and Nurse are the only killers that suffer lightburn, because both of them can access the spirit world. To stun them, flash their body to stun them while in he spirit world (I highly doubt body, but just go for head just to be sure.).

•The Nightmare and The Pig are the only killers to not have any add-ones affected by Tinkerer.

•Nurse probably has the most confusing add-ons to work with, because most of them mess with your mental memory and precision.

•The Pig is the shortest killer, barely being taller than the average survivor.

•The Hillbilly's alternate name, The Crooked, is referenced in the Tinkerer perk.

•The Trapper is bald, and his face can be seen in the game files but most notable through one of his customizations.

•Because of her recent nerfs and play style, Hag is deemed the second worst killer.

•The Shape, Huntress, and Nightmare are the only killers to have a unique heartbeat. Shape's heartbeat comes from the Halloween franchise. Huntress's heartbeat starts at 45m in the form of a lullaby, then 20m into actual heartbeat due to her being a ranged killer. And finally, Nightmare's heartbeat is the singing of the jump rope girls from the Nightmare on Elm Street Franchise. However, you'll hear it while awake but not when asleep.

•Pro tip for surviving against The Shape: If you are being stalked by The Shape, you'll slightly hear music coming from The Hedge, being related to Halloween. However I somehow don't here it, is it me, or am I deaf? Here's the music: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=3pzoxskY--s.

I'll edit this later on, so stay tuned!

Can we just take a moment and realise how cool Hillbilly is? (lore wise)

Posted: 26 Mar 2018 12:19 PM PDT

The man was born disfiguered and got locked up in a little room where he was fed through a hole. When he broke out of the room he constructed a FUCKING CHAINSAW and murdered his parents and a lot of animals with it. This man did this without any engineer degree or anything. He probably couldn't even read or write. He is mentally ill aswell. This man is a legend. He can sprint almost as fast as Usain Bolt can (12m/s (can do it with two speed add-ons)) constantly without ever being tired. This man is so strong that he can carry people like David or Jake who are fairly heavy in terms of weight. (I know all killers can do this but Billy probably could even do it without the help of the entity). Hillbilly is awesome. Both lore wise and gameplay wise. You need Hillbilly <3

Better FPS for console killers when?

Posted: 26 Mar 2018 05:16 AM PDT

As BHVR promised since console release and soon will be the publisher too, will console killers actually get some love? Trying to get at least constant 30 FPS for (all!) killers should be still the goal. Survivors are fine atm imo.

So what are the devs doing until the next chapter in June?

Posted: 26 Mar 2018 11:01 AM PDT

Starting from our new chapter, to be released in June, all non-licensed survivors and killers (past and future) will be unlockable through playtime

Source

So we basically have a content drought of 6 months because last chapter (saw chapter) released in January.

I wonder.. what are the devs doing until the next chapter releases?

They have not stated that they will put out balance patches or adress other significant issues in this game now that they have 6 months time for a chapter...
