/dbdg/ Dead by Daylight General #2 Old general: Get out so my friends can get in edition
>What is Dead by Daylight? Asymmetrical Online multiplayer. 4 survivors scramble to fix 5 generators, while 1 killer wants to sacrifice all of them
>Sounds like evolve It's not. Survivors have to avoid the killer at all costs, whereas the killer has to hunt for them. Everyone has their own objective.

David Martin
First game with 0 FPS due to not hitting up the options menu and no idea of the controls.
>Mfw the survivors REFUSE to leave and play "stand around the killer and try to de-hook my friend" for ten minutes
Muh immersion.
I learned to hate the guy with the toolbox.
I killed him first.
Only person to escape used the secondary exit after I slaughtered his buddies who kept trying to juke me.
Add this in future thread creation for people concerned about p2w elements
>Starbreeze is the publisher for dead by daylight, and overkill the makers of payday 2 is a starbreeze studio. The publishers that told them to add micro transactions to payday was 505 games, Starbreeze bought them out for their 100th update and have removed micro transactions from this point forward. So as of right now you should not be worried about starbreeze being the publishers.
Hunter Jones
Fucking minorities, amirite? DWIGHT POWER
Asher Long
grindable consumables that only last one game are annoying as shit, i really don't understand how any designer wants them in their game
Julian Phillips
So who's gonna be what killer/survivor character when the game comes out? I'm thinking trapper + Dwight.
Codes please
Sebastian Rodriguez
wraith gotta sp00k people
Joshua Smith
Hillbilly + Dwight
Josiah Diaz
All of these rank 1 survivors that just disconnect when they get caught.
The funny thing is they are usually the first to get caught.
Joseph Hughes
so where's the hatch usually at? do I just gotta run around hoping to happen upon it?
Lincoln Hall
Landmarks, usually the building that changes every round (Industrial plant/two story house/mineshaft house typically)
Wyatt Lee
guess I'm unlucky never found it around there
Luke Garcia
CAN'T SMITE THE DWIGHT
Zachary King
Deal with it nigger

Thomas Reyes
so I have all 3 killer items? where do I go from here didn't cheat or anything I just finished a flawless survivor match and I got this weird loadout screen
Dylan Robinson
damn I fucked up and went to change roles and now they're all gone rip
Sebastian Myers
It's a glitch, only lucky faggots at the start of the beta were able to play as other killers at all. Pretty sure its been patched out.
Jace Stewart
Happens to me as well, pretty frequently. Not sure how to abuse it to get to use the other killers though.
Henry Bell
>30 fps
Elijah Smith
isn't it locked to 30 in the menus? I get 60 in game but I'm only playing on like medium
If any of you have a spare moment i'd really appreciate it
Anthony Martin
...
Austin Richardson
well enjoy the 60 fps menu I guess not spending 500 dollars on a card when I barely play high end games
Nathaniel Scott
>First game as killer >Level 1 toolbox dwight >Jukes the fuck out of me for 5 minutes, realize his team can't repair generators for shit >Smash his faggot friend in the face and put him on a hook, walk 10 feet away and toolbox fag and someone else are already trying to get him off the hook >Smash them both, hook them both >Last dude is hiding in a closet in my rape basement
Jesus christ, even rank 1 survivors are stupid. I can finally take my rage out on them. Surprised he didn't disconnect.
Kevin Gray
>TFW I can't play survivors because I get really anxious over all the sound cues and the heart beats.
The most terrifying game of hide and seek.
Zachary Gomez
>be dwight >2 people following me as soon as the round begins >they're both rank 20s, probably newbie >go to repair a generator >they all follow suite and start repairing >mess up the first skill check on purpose and sprint away >they both scatter kek
Mason Wilson
I think the only skillful survivor I've ever seen has been myself
And that's mainly because I poured hours into Killer and know exactly what not to do. I've only lost one round as a killer and that's because I went up against a team all carrying a toolbox. I had no fucking hooks or bear traps that entire round.
Henry Garcia
I've just started playing killer, up to 4 rounds with nobody escaping.
Playing survivor has made them all so predictable. All of them try to play hero, all get hooked
Jaxon Long
Underwear customization when?
Wyatt Jones
So have we ruled out any way to force the game to set you as one of the other killers? I was sure there was people working on it.
Mines the same way, the gameplay itself runs at 60 and I play at medium but when I'm in the menu it gets stuck at 30fps
Christian Turner
Got you famalamadingdong, need one more person
Dylan James
the difference between a rank 1 survivor compared to a rank 15+ is fucking abysmal.
I swear, one time I was with three 15+ ranks in a game where two of us got hooked, what do the two others do? they fucking bolt it and leave both of us even though it's clear that the killer can only look after one.
Then in another game, I helped a guy who instead of helping someone else while I was chased, he chose to just hop in the exit
Since it's saved locally I guess, is there any way to get all the items via an edit or download or something? I mostly wanna use em to spice up private lobbies.
Christopher Campbell
yeah you can edit the game easily right now but idk if any of the higher level rare items will work in game or not
Andrew Wood
Why didn't I get a code? I have three saviors.
Nicholas Moore
Any guide or something for this?
Julian Taylor
no but know this, grasshopper in the age of google ignorance is a choice
David Walker
>not wanting to repair the generator faster >probably a rank 20 also
Adam Sanders
>He doesn't like having fun
Blake Collins
>he doesn't like making the killer rage quit the beta so there are less shit killers on release.
Brandon Cox
can't find shit friendo
Oliver Morris
>he doesn't want more shit killers on release for more fun uh?
James Taylor
>Get saved by three people. >Die Why is this allowed?
Eli Lewis
>he thinks shit killers make the game fun Yep fucking with people who have no clue sure is fun every round. a repetitive game like this will only last due to good killers because no one wants to round to end in 30 seconds every time.
Josiah Hall
Good killer can't do anything vs 3 good survivors
Leo Taylor
The ritual system needs balanced or at least tweaked so there's a higher chance of unhooking if you struggle. It absolutely sucks when you're caught and it's basically an instadeath.
Anthony Long
So the party/group system isnt going to be released on day 1
What else are the devs lying about? Are we not getting the wraith? Is it only the hillbilly and trapper?
Left him crawling around while I murdered the negress. Went back, took him down to my sex bunker and let him struggle loose. Stood at the stairs and he tried to flash light me. Got like 600 points for turning to the side a little bit.
Then I chased him around until he went upstairs and out the window I had trapped.
Colton Hughes
>The ritual system needs balanced
Fuck you.
It's already annoying enough that you fuckers can sabotage my hooks, but not only that you can wiggle out too, and being rescued from a hook is easy as fuck too, especially if you have a fucker with a toolbox breaking my shit.
Now you want another god damn advantage over the killer too?
Why don't we just balance the game so that the killer opens the door and personally escorts you out on top of it?
Carter Foster
You guys always post about your escapes
But what about your deaths?
You've come across any good killers?
Ryder Wood
Shitty killer detected.
>but not only that you can wiggle out too Very rarely. I've never been able to get off the hook in the week I've been playing. I don't know how these other faggots are doing it, though.
>and being rescued from a hook is easy as fuck too Says who? If you have a super coordinated team, sure. But not everyone wants to play hero and they're not obligated to.
Balancing it so that the odds of struggling out of hooks are slightly higher the first time you get hooked wouldn't break the fucking game.
Tyler Parker
>it's a claudette is using time-jumping hacks to outrun the killer episode >it ends with her hanging on a hook gr8/8
John Richardson
>hillbilly has his own movement animations/memento mori kill
hope somewhat restored. I was a bit put off from some of the glitched wraith play i've seen in the beta which looks like the wraith just uses the Trapper's structure, animations and movement identically.
Not him, but it doesn't break anything. It makes an already tedious part of the game less fun then it currently is.
I already get survivors flying off hooks by themselves all the time. Having to camp hooks is bad enough, but if survivors could unhook themselves at a higher rate then they already do, it would be ridiculous.
Liam Nguyen
they probably didn't finish working on them at the time beta was released, which is why only Trapper is available.
Also, does Jake have the worst fucking grunts? Everyone else has nice moans and grunts but Jake's NHUEEEH is fucking awful.
Julian Gomez
Is this game worth the $20/$26 (deluxe)? I've been watching a few streams and it actually seems pretty good by my main concerns are
>Price: It's cheap which leads me to believe its made by indie devs and will be forgotten about after a month
>Content: Again going with the price, slightly concerned the devs will drop this after release and it'll die quickly, also goes alone with no new content/maps
>Playerbase: Don't see much on this game, don't want to wait an hour for a fucking game
Zachary Williams
The only thing I dont get :
Why have different characters for progression? It is going to result in games with clones (survivors picking same hero).
Whats the problem with making it L4D style, there are always 4 different heroes and you get to pick one, or randomized hero. Then your current build applies for that character.
Seeing clones is really annoying and cosmetics don't help that much.
Survivors have certain perks that are unique to them which once learn supposedly have a way to be taught to your other survivors
Tyler Phillips
>Balancing it so that the odds of struggling out of hooks are slightly higher the first time you get hooked wouldn't break the fucking game.
Don't you realize that killer already struggles against good survivors?
Anthony Cox
Anyone?
Daniel Diaz
Its starbreeze and alot of the overkill guys
They won't forget about it, and they will add genuinely fun content, but it will be spread out amongst some generally boring content.
At the very least, it will be content
Michael Cooper
It won't be forgotten but damn if you'll wish it was after four months.
DLC will certainly be a thing.
Considering survivors can immediately start another game if they die or escape, and aren't locked in until everyone completes the map, I think it won't be too too terrible as long as it stays the level it currently is.
Colton Sanders
>four fags with toolboxes and yet all of them but me die after the third generator is fixed >one of them is a cheater to boot Couldn't find a hatch so I had to repair two generators all by myself. Was sweating bullets, but in the end I got away.
Leo Torres
It's a gamble at this point.
Who knows if the beta interested enough people to buy it or not.
I personally enjoy it and will play it until the player base dies out. Hopefully it'll last a couple of months. That's the best I can hope for.
Christian Johnson
That's a pretty shitty Killer. Only 6k points?
Evan Cook
the more survivors struggle, the more points killer gets for repeated spotting, hits, hooking, etc. This time survivors were shit and I evaded his sights, so he's got pretty much nothing.
Joseph Sullivan
Some tips for you, the hatch will ALWAYS be either on the perimeter or inside the building with the basement depending on the map. Only on the huge tower level will it be inside
If you find yourself ever down to two people, take a moment, find the hatch and then get back to helping with generators
I should clarify, I meant the perimeter of the basement building. Just do a quick sweep around it and you'll see it
Lincoln Thompson
Not always. I've seen it between some trees and inside the juke shack once. It also commonly spawns next to that long building. Also it currently bugs out a lot and either doesn't show up until mid match or doesn't show up at all (but you can still hear it when it opens).
Dylan Watson
Whats the problem with having 4 "paths" that you could choose with different traits at the end?
I want there to be a variety between survivor models, clones do ruin atmosphere a bit.
Imagine L4D with 4 Bills or Zoeys. It ruins visual representation.
I feel like Im going not to main any character, and instead rolling with character that is not presented in the current lobby. Thats what I've been doing during Beta.
Michael Jackson
Jesus, that Zoey model is delicious.
Luke Reyes
Thanks, anons! I'm in.
Mason Hughes
This game better allow fucking mods.
I want Scooby gang survivors
Jaxon Smith
Hillbilly+Claudette
Leo Watson
I can't get 60 in this game for the life of me, no clue why
