Dead by Daylight Developer Stream #96 - "And a great plague fell upon the world"

Developer Stream #96 - "And a great plague fell upon the world"

Posted: 12 Apr 2018 10:57 AM PDT

Hello people of the fog!

Welcome back to our weekly Dev Stream Megathread! The procedure is the same as every week: news and announcements are restricted to this Megathread, but discussions about the stream contents are welcome! Maybe we get some spicy news about the upcoming killer? The stream title seems promising :)

Watch the Developer Stream VOD on Twitch!

Summary

Emblems

  • "Nobody should feel entilted to an Iridescent Emblem; it means that you overperformed in this category."
  • Double pips are rare by design; it means that you were way more skilled than your opponents and deserve to climb in ranks faster
  • They are tracking every killers performance in regards to the Emblems (in order to tweak the system)
  • Lightbringer:
    • The amount of points you get gets divided if you do the generator with other people (e.g. solo a gen = 100 points, do the gen with another survivor: 50 points for both of you)
    • Only hex totems count for Lightbringer, NOT dull totems!
  • Evader:
    • "How Evader works: go in a long chase and escape with/without getting hit"
  • Chaser:
    • Rewards you for getting involved in lots of chases
    • "To get Iridescent Chaser, you'd have to finish a large number of chases (22) with a successful hit. Go in Kill Your Friends and test it with an absurd amount of chases!"
    • Friendly reminder that hitting someone, no matter if you'll injure or down them, counts as an end to a chase

Q & A

  • No glasses for Ace's panama head at the moment, but it's not out of question
  • They have other "swanky" outfits for Ace
  • Play to unlock: "It's not shards, it's not bloodpoints, it's something different that will accumulate your playtime"
  • Some new cosmetics are only unlocked via direct purchase, some only through playtime and some for specific achievements
  • Ability for killers to close the hatch: they are internally testing it right now, "but it feels real and it's happening"
  • Updates for June: Store, new chapter and new tutorial
  • Daily rituals: they are talking about a "Tier system" with easy, medium and hard rituals, but it's still in discussion
  • The Pig: "it feels okay right now", no plans to do major adjustments to her
  • Shirtless David cosmetic is finished!

I had an idea but a lack of editing skills to make it and that led to this

Facecamping and the new Emblem System

Posted: 12 Apr 2018 06:38 AM PDT

First off : I dont care if you facecamp you decide how you want to play and thats fine by me. Its not fun for the survivor but what ever.

So here is what the problem and facecamping is in the new system: We assume that the team is not dumb and the hooked survivor doesnt stop struggeling,

3 people are doing gens as fast as possible and leave to not give the killer any more kills. That was the old strategy and almost always it was a pip/black pip.

With the new emblem system you get punished for being effiecent and punishing the camping killer because to be able to pip you MUST fuck around with the killer, break chases etc but he wont allow that because he is facecamping so how the hell are you supposed to pip against this.

The killer knows that he "gives up" his rank etc when facecamping ( at least i know that when i play lf ) because you surrender all your map pressure. Furthermore he knows that the facecamped survivor wont pip but now no one will pip and at max safety pip if played as effiecent as possible.

I really hope this gets adressed. One should not be punished when its played correctly.

The only thing better than being sacrificed to the entity is getting a piggy-back ride from the hillbilly

Anyone else appreciate the sound Feng Min makes when she doesn't struggle while being carried?

Posted: 12 Apr 2018 08:20 AM PDT

All of the other characters seem to just make groans and sounds of pain.

Feng Min just seems to let out this, "ughhhhh", like she's just so fed up with this shit.

Dunno, just appreciate how each of the characters seem to have these little audio differences to give just a touch of personality in an otherwise voiceless game.

Shoutout to Jeff for being rad

Posted: 12 Apr 2018 12:10 AM PDT

u/Jeff_BHVR has been super active on the subreddit even though he's only been here for a day and has been really responsive on bug reports. Someone on the BHVR team actively going through the subreddit and updating us on known bugs and how they're gonna review stuff is just really nice. Thanks, Jeff, you're fantastic

Survivor complains summarized after emblem system update

Posted: 12 Apr 2018 12:35 PM PDT

Confirmed Hag origin story? ��

PSA: Don't use Ace in the Hole

Posted: 12 Apr 2018 08:26 AM PDT

/!\ Don't use the perk Ace in the Hole for now.

There's a current bug that makes it impossible to escape with a new item with addons attached to it...

Note that this bug also happens if you decide to "steal" another survivor's item with addons attached to it.

So it it pointless to use this perk...

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

On a side note, since the addons rarity rework, you will never find anymore a syringe addon on a medkit (or an Odd Bulb on a flashlight...) because it became ultra-rare instead of previously very-rare (See Patch Notes 1.8.2)

Hope Devs will fix it soon™...

For whom the bell tolls

Posted: 12 Apr 2018 11:24 AM PDT

For this Emblem System to work, we need to know how we're doing while in match.

Posted: 12 Apr 2018 02:47 AM PDT

This is going to take a lot of work, for sure, because Bhvr is known for being afraid to add new controls, but it would be nice if holding Tab or holding one of the D-pad keys on your controller shows you a screen. Perhaps it showed you how many points you currently have for that match, and how are your emblems doing. It doesn't need to be intrusive or 'in your face', plenty of games have a scoreboard that is easily seeable and dismissable. I don't see why DBD shouldn't have that, especially now that we're way, way past the immersion phase of the game and more focused on competitive aspect of the game.

When a Survivor uses a fat shaming spot

Posted: 11 Apr 2018 05:46 PM PDT

A message to anyone wanting to learn nurse, but scared by all the mains saying she's difficult.

Posted: 12 Apr 2018 05:52 AM PDT

Just do it. You will likely lose your first few games but it's all about that muscle memory. Eventually you'll start hitting your blinks and after that all you need to learn is when to blink and how long to blink over looping obstacles.

I made the jump and now that I'm slightly competent its so much fun.

I dont care about ranking or emblems, I care about my game not randomly crashing every 5th game

Posted: 12 Apr 2018 07:53 AM PDT

Seriously. I couldnt care less about my rank or emblems, I just play for fun and the BP grind. Twice by game crashed yesterday, and its happened dozens of times over the past few weeks. Never played a PC game this fucking unstable before, and it makes me want to stop playing. The amount of time ive sunk into randomly DC'd games is unreal.

DC'd last night while literally healing next to the open exit gate while gameplanning to unhook a survivor. I lose all my bp for the game, my 15 min, and my buddy gets left on hook because I cant help out. The fact that I have to consider leaving a teammate behind because I'm worried the game might not make it an extra few min is unacceptable. WTF

I dont care if I pip or depip or whatever, let me play a fucking game without having to stress about it exploding for no fucking reason.

The Rise of Leatherface

Posted: 12 Apr 2018 07:55 AM PDT

PS4 survivor-main around rank 10 here.

I know this is just an anecdote, but I starting keeping track after a pattern was emerging. Since shortly after the emblem patch, I've played against...

-1 Trapper -1 Michael -1 Freddy -2 Billy -2 Huntress -21 Leatherface

What is bringing the popularity of LF? It isn't the same player. Is this is flavor of the moment? Is there an advantage he has with emblems?

Camping and Emblems

Posted: 12 Apr 2018 07:05 AM PDT

So, survivors are penalized for unhooking other survivors unsafely now, but killers are not penalized for camping? Seems odd. If a killer is camping he should also be penalized if he's not in a chase with another survivor. How are we suppose to unhook a survivor being camped without being penalized if we don't already have a perk. So essentially we just need to let them die? Furthermore.. hooked survivors should receive points for being camped if they are seen that much of a threat.
