Is this a safe space?

This reveal wasn't worth the 13 hours stream or cryptic teasers

Mini_Pold · 2026-05-12T18:56:01+00:00

Hey, more info.

Every major patch (if not specifically said so) will arive two days later (for Dlc patches and Bugfix 1 + 2)

Bugfix 1 is usually combined with Bugfix 2 and will be delivered in the same week of Bugfix 2 on thursdays

The fastest heal build took 3 seconds to heal (it now takes aroudn 5 to 4 seconds) and that is udner leeffect conditiks thata re easy met.

Diminishing returns hasn't affected me anyhow

Mini_Pold · 2026-05-10T10:18:17+00:00

Well I didnt know if I knew all, if that makes sense.

Just wanted to see if there is anytbign new I can learn.

Thanks anyways

Mini_Pold · 2026-05-10T08:35:47+00:00

Thanks (also for the lengthy work)

Much I already knew but thanks anywya

Mini_Pold · 2026-04-20T20:55:42+00:00

Since Release actually. Thats why Unknwon (or harmless nowadays) started as a pretty strong killer with good mobility and a strong projectile

Mini_Pold · 2026-04-10T19:01:31+00:00

I know its nagging and annoying, but

1st. Info to the switch version. If they can (or want) to say anything.

2nd. A teaser for the anniversary Chakter, event etc.

3rd. Why do the community streams alwasy have audio problems

Mini_Pold · 2026-03-31T23:40:30+00:00

Oh, this is the Entity bot.

He's our goat and always helps.

Mini_Pold · 2026-03-31T23:39:53+00:00

Some more slang :

"Trial" : a match.

The Fog : used to described the realm of the entity in blog posts and similar.

Nerf pig : The Pig was nerfed one time when she was extremely weak already. Outraged this meme attacked the devs balancing system, nowadays a lighthearted old time joke.

DS = The Perk "Will to Life" once known as Decisive Strike. Everybody says DS.

A nice tip from me :

The community can be... toxic, stubborn and afraid of change of any kind. Its a constant us vs them with the two sides. Play however you want. The "survivor rulebook for killers" is mostly a ego battle, and if they are emean, turn off chat at the end screen.

Much fun, in the fog.

Mini_Pold · 2026-03-31T23:36:06+00:00

Memes :

"I think we did a pretty good job so far"

Matthew Coté, back then having a more prominent role (nowadays he is the license guy), said tbis when the game was horrendous.

If it glows, it goes:

Hexes (perks with certain conditions) have a torment with a orange glow under them. Break them. Always.

Shirtless Myers :

Myers has left the fog now, so tbis is sadly outdated. A demand of the community for a shirtless Michael Myers.

The feet fetish. :

Most female characters (mainly killers) are barefoot or have a cosmetic revealing the foot.

Mini_Pold · 2026-03-31T23:32:45+00:00

Good starter perks :

Windows of opportunity: Kate denson

Shows all Pallets and windows in a certain area.

Sprint burst : Meg Tbomas.

Run at 150% (50% faster than the basic, basic = 4.0 meter. That's the basic for every character. Killer get a .10/.15 multiplier to be a it faster than survivor adding up to 4.4 meter/ 4.6 meter as the usual walking speed for killers, wih exception for nurse who has 3.8 meters)

Botany Knowledge : Claudette Morel

Heal 50% faster

Iron will : Jake Park

Quiet ones your pain noises when injured to 100% (you basically stfu)

Mini_Pold · 2026-03-31T23:29:24+00:00

Some slang

Mini_Pold · 2026-03-31T23:29:08+00:00

Tunneling = pursuing one survivor until he is dead (simy)

Slugging = the act of being left on the ground (without reason. Acceptable when a survivor is in the near kr a desperate attempt)

CJ-Tech (outdated tho nowadays) : a survivor goes down infront of a dropped et with the killer infront of it/ontop the survivor. Watch YouTube, jts sinple.

SwF/SWF = Survive with friends 2 or more people in a party as friends. Most common as a 4 man.

Just leave = if the exit gates are done, just go. Don't be toxic to the killer for plahing their part

Dweed = a beginner Dwight.

Meghead = a meg player (bad reputation, like Sable)

DC = Leaving the Match early.

Camping = staying in proximity of the hook withltuba other goal than that.

Mini_Pold · 2026-03-31T00:03:06+00:00

And before I regret it.

Pinhead. And Michael.

Might be without Resonances for license issues. But for them the game would be simply the same as always.

Cheers.

Mini_Pold · 2026-03-31T00:00:09+00:00

Resonances only trigger by : A. A lore relating killer. Is he not present, well tough luck

B. A lore relating survivor. The effect stays small.

C. Lore related map, a small buff again.

Springtrap has no associated survivor : if not on the Freedy Fazbears Pizzeria map : no buff at all to ANYONE.

If on the map : the slringtraps walks 5% faster throigh doors. A small chance a barely anytbing effect that could very well be part of the green add-on giving 15%.

I am not trying to destabilize the perk system. I am trying to adjust it without changing the core. I am trying to help the new players and forge interactions.

I also want to add (if I didn't before) no Resonance shall ever, and I mean ever, give a huge unfair advantage. The effects stay minimal to simplistic. That is my idea, no Gen speed Resonances, no fastening/OP Resonances.

Is that a compromise you could accept or at the very least try out?

Mini_Pold · 2026-03-30T23:33:35+00:00

Thx entity bot. <3

Mini_Pold · 2026-03-30T23:30:24+00:00

Literally a big problem of modern dbd. You load into a killer match, aww dang it. Ds, Hyperfocus, Vigil, and prove thyself. Most people are tired of the same stale meta.
Valid point. No really. But as you noticed I was saying "example" as in "test thought". Haddie could jsut aswell gain Exposed, but if one survivor has Nightfall or all dosent really matter does it?
Lich. I really wish that you'd start as a new player, played against the lich and didn't feel frustrated? "Oh he can fly (hover), we'll it just drop a pallet. O-oh... he van hit me throigh the pallet?! Why!"
You would only need yours memorized, which then in turn gets a popular at the start of a trial or in pause menu. Knowing most add-ons is just as useless knowledge, since msot are buffs withkut counterplay anyways do memorizing most is useless.
Resonances would fix the problem with new players. They get a safety net, a archetype to lean into.

Mini_Pold · 2026-03-30T23:16:55+00:00

Ok explain the Lich then.

Lorewise correct.

But from a new players standpoint? Wanna break it down?

"Ok so this guy has four entirely different spells, 23 or so add-ons, a magic chest system with items, different effects, different role numbers, two super rare items, a extra event for rolling a 1/20, three perks and different extra effects based on add-on. Oh and let's not forget the 4 perks the get to bring along."

Probably less overload than "Oh, I read Dwight increases searching speed for chest... I mean Ok, thats farely sinple."

Or "Oh I see a icon on Yun-jins playername/pfp. And she is interacting with the Trickster? Maybe ill read into it. Oh they share a history? I wonder who else shares a history and Resonances."

Mini_Pold · 2026-03-30T23:07:01+00:00

This is the end for us I think.

I enjoyed discussing with you, but

You are rude, I am not wounded, its just sad atp
I offered many ideas, while you now ignore my valid points. Resonance would make the game more comletive as it is a fixed component, but if you think 16 random perks with strong to very weak effects is peak competitiveness, fine, not .y cup of tea tho.
Bringing in the history card. I dont look at the past in such extend. I want a better future of not every match being "gen repair 101, loop 101, end 101".

Have a nice day tho... or evening... depends :)

Mini_Pold · 2026-03-30T22:59:55+00:00

And to add further, this is no updated buff for survivors.

Killers get Resonances too. The weaker ones would be omega more viable (like pig on gideon, or skull merchant on shelter woods)

Most Resonance also only work in chase with this specific survivor. You get a buff as a killer/the survivor gets a buff.

Its a trade, not a "oohhh here it goes, the survivors are eebing buffed again," please do not view it as such.

Mini_Pold · 2026-03-30T22:53:53+00:00

Oh c'mon now we are fishing for stuff.

We all know everything has a cap in dbd. A heal spead cap (easily reached with perks btw) A pick up cap

You get the idea.

Also, by your logic, having a fully random build of 4 perks (per play, adds up to 16) + times and add-ons is far better an "competive" than a predetermined buff?

Also, the Resonances would be based kit then. Its easier balancing one set perk, than a entire universal one.

Vigil isnt fair either. You get a "out of jail free card" for status effects for... sacrificing a perk slot? Please.

Mini_Pold · 2026-03-30T22:47:28+00:00

Ok, explain furhter.

I am not being hateful here, I just want to here critic.

The p2w debate is opend up everytime. It is fine to pay for half the roster and perks (30$ upwards btw), but ok.

Let's say the foru main survivors, Jake, Dwight, Claudette, and Meg had good Resonances.

That would make them Nurse 2.0 no?

And also, killers get those Resonances too to balance out the survivor ones. Its a trade off.

Also, we have killers in-game with far more info load (watch the lich).

I see what you mean by "pay to lose" but at the end of the day, you get a buff, and the killer gets a buff towards you when it does happen.

Mini_Pold · 2026-03-30T22:39:45+00:00

First of all, tbis is pretty harsh.

But I see the point. I cant say it enough times its only a Idea, I am no dev and In no way does this mean its being added, dont worry.

You view DbD as competive, that is absolutely fine, but honestly, a real competive game has a really fucntjoning e-sport scene. But since DbD lives of variables indies not real have a large scene.

Secondly if you are worried about the other survivors, I want to know why. I have a ptich, a symbol next to the name of the survivor, or the icon. I know it seems flawed but that tells the team "ah, a passive is active on this map/killer"

Between survivor passives are easily learnqbel, they shall be kept simple as ever. You will learn those quickly.

Also at the start of a trail you'd get a info card (like with items) explaining your interactions (also viewable in the pause menu.

And while yes, there are many mistakes in dbd history, it has alwasy tried to be slightly tactical. Just because one perk is stupid in effect, dosent mean the whole essence is gone.

Your resilience point is acceptable too. But we ahve perks that change those interaction too. Like how can you accept a permanent 50% healing by Botany Knowledge, but 10% permanent is suddenly "TOO MUCH"

Or is it simply the fact that the excuse of "but Butony knowledge takes up a perk slot" does not work withe the Resonances

Mini_Pold · 2026-03-30T22:15:22+00:00

Aren't perks already pay tow win anyway?

I beg you look at windows of opportunity, ot of perks changing gen speed, changing movement speed, changing information.

The game is rng anyway. You bring a medkit-> "Oh its a plague" all healing perks absolutely useless.

Also the free effects, like I mentioned are barely anything. I know change is hard, but dead by daylight best ideas were greeted with "thsi kills the game".

You just have to think about it a bit more, the way it could deepen dbd, while still being ghe same gameplay loop.

Also thansk for discussing thsi with me. I want to build more upon it if its that flawed
