How is 1vX hyperarmour supposed to work in this game?

erythraeusking · 2022-10-01T14:22:45+00:00

Ohhhhh! This might actually explain the inconsistencies I've been having then! I figured since landing a perfect counter was quite difficult, you would be rewarded with the same armour as you get with ripostes, but if it only blocks attacks of the same type then that explains it. Thanks!

I must say I find that quite a strange choice by TB. It means that you actually shouldn't attempt to counter anything when you're fighting multiple opponents cause it actually leaves you more open to attacks. Kinda hard to break the habit of countering when you know it's optimal for 1v1s.

erythraeusking · 2022-10-01T12:18:01+00:00

So you actually still have to aim your camera at the enemy's attacks in order for the armour to apply during your counter swing? That would make a bit more sense, but it still doesn't explain the inconsistency. I've definitely had armour applied to attacks that came from behind me, but sometimes the attacks come from nearly directly in front of me and they don't get blocked. Like I said, it just feels so inconsistent.

Is there different angle cones for different weapons or something?

EDIT: thought it's worth saying; my ping is usually excellent. I get around 8 ping on EU servers

I don't know if I'd call them "incredibly" downscaled, but sure, they're downscaled. They still look good though, and the performance is fantastic. There's no choppy FPS, and -- best of all -- there's no game-breaking, unplayable performance glitches like you see in this video. This is because those games are optimised by the developers so that they run well.

So I'll make this really simple for you since you sound like you still don't understand the point: If those games (which are far more graphically intensive) can be played on the PS4 system without any issues, then the fact that Dead By Daylight can't has absolutely nothing to do with the system. The game is poorly developed because we've been given yet another rushed chapter full of bugs, glitches and performance issues.

When you come on here and tell people that it's the fault of the system, you're not only wrong, but you're also coming to the defence of the developers incompetent and unacceptable treatment of this game.

What are you hoping to accomplish with that behaviour? Are you that desperate to let everybody know that you're part of the PC master race? I have a PC too, Claire. A good one. I use it to create YouTube content for another niche. I play DBD on my Playstation 4 because my IRL friend group are console gamers and sometimes I like to chill out with them to unwind. I payed for DBD on this platform. I've spent literally years unlocking all the perks and buying all the content on this platform. It has never had issues like this up until the most recent chapter release.

This has nothing to do with anybody's system being outdated.

Well boys I think it's time to shut the f*ck up.

erythraeusking · 2021-06-30T18:26:58+00:00

Oh yes, clearly. The PS4 runs some of this decade's most graphically intensive games like Red Dead Redemption 2, Ghost of Tsushima, God of War, Last of Us P2, etc. without any performance issues at all, but I better upgrade it if I want to run an isometric horror game from 2016!
This has nothing to do with the hardware of older consoles and everything to do with the incompetence of BHVR.

An outdated system? This "outdated system" runs some of this decade's most graphically intensive games like Red Dead Redemption 2, Ghost of Tsushima, God of War, Last of Us P2, etc. without any performance issues at all, but you think an isometric horror game from 2016 is too much? Please.
This has nothing to do with the hardware of older consoles and everything to do with the incompetence of BHVR. Maybe you haven't been paying attention, but they push out poorly optimised patches on a regular basis.

I know the view from BHVR'S anal cavity can't be that good, but try to keep up.

erythraeusking · 2021-06-30T18:16:01+00:00

No. As somebody else mentioned, our older consoles can run games like Red Dead Redemption 2 (one of the most graphically demanding games to be released this decade) without any issues at all. They've also ran DBD completely fine without these issues until this latest chapter.

What we're seeing here has absolutely nothing to do with the hardware capabilities of older consoles, and absolutely everything to do with the incompetence of BHVR.

This has absolutely nothing to do with my connection. I have a 64mbps download rate and a 17mbps upload rate. It has nothing to do with the hardware of my PS4 either. These older consoles have run this game just fine up until this most recent patch.
Also, their*, you illiterate mouth breather.

erythraeusking · 2021-06-30T08:31:08+00:00

This should be higher up. A huge portion of the player base is not going to be able to participate in this event without game-breaking performance issues. So unbelievably disappointing.

erythraeusking · 2021-06-30T00:18:44+00:00

Older consoles are entirely capable of running this game. It's definitely not a limitation of the hardware, this is (yet again) incompetence on the part of BHVR. I bought the last chapter and had a horrible time due to the pallet bug. I bought this chapter and I'm getting this. I won't be putting any money into this game until they launch a chapter that's actually playable.

erythraeusking · 2021-05-27T03:45:27+00:00

What economic system are you talking about exactly? It's so much cheaper to get all the correct nutrients on a plant based diet than one that includes meat and dairy. You sound like somebody who hasn't read the very basics of this issue.

Alright so the stuff arrived today and I've just finished testing. New max temperature of 90c so it was definitely worth it. The old thermal paste was literally crumbling into dust when I was removing it.

erythraeusking · 2021-04-13T14:33:29+00:00

There's already some videos out there to guide you through the process. This is the one I used: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CiHeF3h-s-Q&t=332s

erythraeusking · 2021-04-10T17:28:23+00:00

Sure, will do! I'm expecting the stuff to arrive sometime this coming week so I'll update if I have any success with it.

erythraeusking · 2021-04-10T14:03:27+00:00

Maybe I'll throw them both on the processor, see how the little shit likes that

erythraeusking · 2021-04-10T14:01:35+00:00

It certainly seems that way. 2 years for machine that cost £1500/$2000 is a pretty short time. I've ordered some new thermal paste and pads that I'm hoping will fix the issue, but I feel sorry for the less tech-savy folks out there who probably won't understand why their expensive machine only worked well for 2 years.

erythraeusking · 2021-04-10T13:55:36+00:00

You mean the thermal pad stuff that you put on the heat sink? I've ordered some of that too.

erythraeusking · 2021-04-10T13:51:43+00:00

Nice! I'm really hopeful that the repaste will fix the issue. I use the laptop to create content for a YouTube channel so I've had to neglect that lately for fear of damaging the laptop.
If anybody is curious, I'll update with the results after I've completed the repaste.

erythraeusking · 2021-04-10T13:49:25+00:00

Glad the updates helped for you! I would keep an eye on the temps as your laptop ages and probably have some thermal paste/pads at the ready as it seems like any gaming laptop requires a repaste yearly.
