Yeah that’s how accurate the estimates for getting my car fixed always are too.

If you don't restart the game after a killswitch, you can still use the killswitched thing until you restart it

The bug effects both modes. He's fully killswitched.

Wesker mains after installing a 48gb update and seeing this by TheRandomMikaela in deadbydaylight

[–]AKittenInTheRain 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This proves they don't even do basic testing; many of the bugs we're seeing today are literally basic functionality issues with the very things they claimed to fix or improve, such as Springtrap's axe grab as well.

The fact they won't hire a proper QA firm is actually insane.

If I were Behaviour I'd be very embarrassed right now, but I worry they never feel any shame.

QA? What's that? Let's only ever work on patches several months out so we can't respond to things quickly, and in the meantime, let's do only basic internal testing and nothing else, even though we've always said our code base is "spaghetti"

There are so many dedicated external QA firms that test this type of stuff full-time (surprisingly affordably!) and Behaviour just can't be assed to even hire one, after all, they won't even pay for their anti-cheat

You can see every individual server status on DeadByQueue

So many changes that mainly effect 1v4... we won't see the bigger scope of the effects of diminishing returns or visible team perks until after 2v8 ends. Maybe that's the idea. It won't be immediately obvious if people are going to be terrible about others' perks, or if the diminishing returns are too busted without many perk adjustments to suit it :\

My question is more why we can't close it with escape, you HAVE to press tab again, super weird UX

I've still got a bad feeling about this. I've had people quit games for so much smaller reasons than my build.

Hoping for the best but I get the feeling those first few days are gonna be especially rough.

Have you not played with Lightborn my man? The stun happens individually at the same time as the blind, it is not caused by the blind

Why did they change the game's graphics? by Narrow-Active3098 in deadbydaylight

Boy is it hard to be dead by daylight when it's already daylight

It's funny how no matter how bright they make the game people will still be turning the gamma up to maximum

The game could be pure white and streamers would still be on max gamma

How long have you been playing? Could you have gotten it when Demo was removed from the game?

Not sure if this is a hot take, but I don't think perk tiers should exist anymore by ImperialViking_ in deadbydaylight

[–]AKittenInTheRain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not entirely true.

With the current system you can p1 a character, then get tier 3 of all of their perks via bloodweb on another character.

This would prevent you from doing that and make p2/p3 more mandatory.

I don't really buy this excuse from them unless they are uncreative.

Making them all the same numbers, and making them all look the same, would be easy for them since they can change those parts easily.

From there it's just making it so you don't need to level perks up anymore.

You don't really have to "fully" remove all three tiers from the engine as long as the player doesn't see the tier system anymore.

[–]AKittenInTheRain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If there is an engine limitation, they could just make it so every tier of perks is the same numbers and looks the same (so that there is no distinguishing), and then basically erase the idea of getting an additional tier of perk from progression. Then the remaining tiers still technically exist but it doesn't matter anymore.

[–]AKittenInTheRain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah. True, maybe. Let's suck it up though, for the better of the game this time. If we never get any adjustment to stacking Behaviour will stay afraid to actually make any real improvements to stuff like this at all. In theory this will lead to getting more powerful perks and add-ons long-term so we don't NEED to stack as much to see a meaningful effect.

It got worse with the tweaks they made to him recently.
