It seems to be a big reason they always give such vague responses is because they have such little faith in themselves. A constant excuse I hear in these Q&A's is that they don't want to give a definite answer because they pretty much know they're gonna fuck up
Question: why is the game so shit?
SOOOOOOOON
Yeah, soon this game will fucking die lmao
Dang… I need to see some serious rewards for gaining a Devotion level. (Prestige levels for your player account level)… Theres a chunk of shards but thats it…. Gaining 100 player levels is no easy task. There should be better rewards… Im about to hit devotion 13 and i dont feel rewarded for the 2 thousand hours ive put in.
Why Don't buff Ghost Face, Pig and Legião? Theys are weaklings…
that's a shame…
Just let me know when the game is good and valid enough to play and we need more updates, characters and bug fixes then the game will be fun to play more often ..
Question: How much money would I need to buy every character and cosmetic individually? 🤔
The face your man makes when ortz is mentioned you should be praising him for bringing so much attention to your game
I played DBD for 4 years and used to play killer/survivor 4-5 nights a week and now maybe once a week. Patrick is one of the worse things you guys have going for you. He gets Skill based match making all wrong. At the end of a "hockey" season an MVP is based on all stats during the season of a player not wins. Of course wins are wanted! But this shows skill of said player. Not how many wins his team does. So him saying your SBMM is based on kills or escapes is VERY wrong. Many MVPs in sports don't win championships. I know for me I just want to have fun so it doesn't matter if I get out every match or get 4 Ks. This current SBMM makes the game miserable. I see many survivors getting out matches by just hook farming players and then hiding the whole match. This is skill then I guess if they get out? PLEASE just go back to the old match making! It wasnt perfect but the game was at least FUN then!
This Q&A was a joke, all that was said was “Soon”, “No”, or “We’re working on it.” Some of the arguments made in terms of the bigger questions like SBMM and the early game mechanic didn’t make sense. Why make a Q&A when most things can’t even be answered properly?
Better perks need to be implemented for the survivors to go against the OP killers and the some killer perks need to be taken away because it's making the game unplayable against killers like leatherface
Devs: you know what would be a good idea? -What? -Nerfing circle of healing! -That's right! Meanwhile the only killers on high mmr: Blight, Nurse, Spirit (all with sweaty addons). -Hell yeah!
4 years and 4 thousand hours, and a budding twitch community behind me and I had to quit because the game is just so poorly run that it killed my want to even start up the game.
Devs are stupid. Get a real education then return to developing. Thank you come again
So what I got from this is:
The Devs don't actually understand how their game works in live gameplay.
They don't respect the community.
And they don't realize how contradictory they are.
So MMR to them works because it gathers the info they set it up to, but it ignores it if someone leaves the lobby. Also they count just win loss because "If you don't win are you really skilled?" That's a backhanded insult to every player in the community. You're basically saying that even though we loop the killer, do the gens, and save the others but die then we aren't skilled because we didn't escape, but we have 25k BP from everything we did. But the player who hid, waited, didn't touch anything, and escaped with 10k bp because they literally didn't do anything is a more skilled player because they won? The killer who drops and hooks all the survivors twice essentially winning every chase almost, but didn't get a 4k is not as skilled as the camping Killer who slugged and camped everyone to death?
That is basically saying to win you have to play like shit. Tunnel and Camp to get kills, and forget the other survivors, just get yourself out. This actually breeds toxic gameplay because there's no reward for Survivors working together or for killers to actually chase.
Then later they talk about the change they scrapped the self care update that gave a 75% boost to healing yourself and others, but COH does the same thing at 100% but 75% after the Nerf.
This whole Q&A is a Giant Middle Finger to the community.
The Devs don't care and this just proves it.
I'm just saying, the sbmm seems shitty.
Killers that get 2 hooks on every survivor have no skill but killers who face camp in basement are gods at the game.
Survivors who unhook, distract the killer and do gens, are bad but the survivor who hid until their mates got a gate open are legendary.
But, this is just my personal opinion. I am sure more skilled players higher in the match making system earnt their way up with pure skill.
First off, just want to acknowledge that you guys do put alot of time and energy into this game and thank you for that, but at the same time it would be nice if there were more direct answers for issues the game is currently facing. Hacking, DDOS, the matchmaking, etc. Have a nice Friday everyone.
Congratulations BHVR you guys managed to do a Q and A without actually giving an A. This entire stream was "No plans" "Possibly not off the table but at the edge" or "Maybe soon"
Also, the fact you guys think that Kills and Escapes are the be all and end all of skill in Dead by Daylight shows how out of touch you guys are with the game. You guys compared a game like Hockey which has fixed rule-sets, a full team vs a full team playing the same positions for the same goal which is to score to a 4v1 asymmetrical game that both sides are playing completely separate games with different goals. I have a background in rep Basketball and Football and these organized sports have no business being compared to Dead by Daylight so that analogy which I'm sure you guys thought was clever was in fact, not because by your logic, me, who looped a killer for 5 gens and then got facecamped at the end of the match by a Leatherface while my teammates sat on gens all match and ran to the exit gate and opened it leaving me behind was a showing of skill from my teammates who held m1 all match while the killer overcommitted to me. This means, the one who displayed actual skill during the match is punished with lower mmr while my teammates who couldn't loop climb the ladder and this gets even worse when that same Leatherface manages to get two kills instead of one meaning his mmr stays the same for following someone all game and then slapping another with NOED.
But hey, mmr classifies a Nurse who uses 4 slowdowns with Range and Recharge every match to a Blight who uses no slowdowns and no addons which is objectively flawed. Really a shame I used to play this game for hours on end and streamed it every night and now I barely even get on twice a week. I started playing in 2017 and the game has come a long way but has also declined a lot and people tell you this all the time and you continue to push out changes that aren't needed like MMR which is the beginning of the end for a lot of people.
You can take my word for it or not (which you definitely won't), up to you but just know that this game is a shadow of it's former self and only getting worse. Better keep getting those licenses because eventually, maybe, just maybe we'll get more Stranger Things situations with other licenses…
dead by lack of bitches
What is this, an amateur Q&A? No definitive answers besides "No" and the rest of the time they just beat around the bush saying, "maybe idk lol, not our priority right now". The only hype-worthy thing is the circle of healing changes before the Q&A even started but even that was a mediocre change at best.
waiting for new archive
36:24 oh so they are going to be like any other survivor that I matchmake with
I’ll save you the time basically every answer is “soon”
Question: have ya'll started planning for this year's 6th anniversary and a new chapter or paragraph?
Sad to hear how The Shape won't be receiving anything new or any changes either. His powers could be tweaked and improved for sure. I guess DbD doesn't want the character to be anything like in the newer movies. He's slowly getting more useless, yet he's the only reason I bought the game. Halloween Chapter I mean. 😒
Well there’s plenty of things that need to be nerfed on survivor side but devs won’t do it cause their lazy. The game is so unbalanced and not fun to play killer anymore.
Your just losing players includig me
It needs to be hooks, not kills
When the ringu chapter PTB will be released????
I wonder when they see good new idea/function and like: "Nah, too much effort and we can't monetize that". But on public "We love it, but it's extremely technically undertaking…"

Q& no A
Hey I am a nobody but im leaving my thoughts on just a couple of these because I really love this game and it makes me feel better. I main killer (ghostface,artist,doctor my favorite 3). It is long sorry about that TL;DR I don't really agree with a lot of their changes but I appreciate and respect the openness and have hopes! TOPIC 1. BT/DS going base kit: That is scary af to me as a killer main hearing them not confirm both are for sure not going base. Honestly though for a long time (not speaking for everyone but I have seen it quite a few times over the years) a lot of us have just been begging them to be honest with us even if we don't like the answer. He was direct and clear about what he could and he was honest and vague about what he couldn't. He wasn't "keeping secrets" or hiding the fact he was being vague he was just being honest and I appreciate that, thank you! TOPIC 2. Why don't hooks count for MMR?: I have wanted to know this for ages, I always had my theories but honestly his answer 100% makes sense to me. Clearly the system isn't perfect yet and I think he acknowledges that but honestly…I used to be one of the people that thought these guys didn't care about the game anymore or really think about it. They really do though, like I think the reason it is so hard for the community and the devs to get on the same page is they are 3-4 steps ahead of us solving problems we haven't even seen yet. OVERALL: I don't agree with the boon totems at all but I honestly think if you addressed killer perks (the 80% of them that are unusable at even a moderate MMR) you could leave them with this slight nerf. (about to do a killer perk thing you can skip this) If you imagine that each killer perk needs to be AT LEAST as good as 4 survivor perks (you can disagree with that concept but please hear me out) think about this. I for one would be 100% okay with missing a cycle or 2 for a new killer to just get months of time devoted to complete perk makeovers. Imagine a world where you have page after page of ACTUALLY USEABLE perks at any rank! I am not saying they will ever be even, some will always outshine others; but imagine if you actually had choices? Imagine if we fasted from updates for like 9 months… how exciting this game would be if in 9 months or whatever time they hit us with one update that remade/buffed/etc almost every killer perk in the game to have at least some reasonable power level influence in the game (so many options for this). It would feel like a brand new game with every killer exploring hundreds of new playstyles and builds! That would mean survivors could use perks that are already powerful but previously had no place or use in the game, imagine if you could actually use every survivor perk without memeing or sandbagging? WALL OVER SORRY
There's no point in a Q&A if you can't even answer the questions. At LEAST give people some hints on what to expect instead of a straight up, "Soon" or "In the beginning of development"
Springtrap real
I have not been playing for super long, I started in April and am still having a blast with the game. BUT, just because I am still having fun playing doesn’t mean there aren’t glaring issues that should have been fixed a long time ago, but the devs don’t even really seem to understand what is wrong with the game.
Useless
Y they r not nerfing shadow step?
Fire Patrick and this game will get better. Please do it asap.
뭐라는거에용? ^_^ 링 빨리 출시점..
All the answers is No, we don´t know, soon oh amazing Q&A
What a surprise! They have no idea what they are doing. 🙂
It is truly amazing to witness how out of touch with the player base this team seems to be on a consistent level. Out of touch to the point of having a live Q&A on a stream full of lots and lots of really pissed off people .So many times I hear their own fog whisperers (the people that THEY appointed to have these conversations with) talking about this HORRIBLE communication problem. They took a year for "research" and THIS is what we all got stuck with. An uncooked system that is NOTHING like it should be. Wins and losses based on escapes or deaths is the most simplistic, lazy and unintuitive system that anyone could come up with in 5 seconds of brain power. The fact that THIS was the big thing that we were all waiting for them to fix only to be incredibly disappointed and with a feeling of genuine detachment from the devs about this. Why are you not using all of the knobs available for measuring skill per game? This has made the game WORSE instead of BETTER in so many crucial ways. Good luck in your 10 minute queues only to be tunneled and camped out in 3. Fun game indeed…
Gonna stop playing dbd after 5 years.
We should admit this game can never be perfect due to everything, the greed of the company, playerbase and some devs not giving any shit. But we should also admit that the old dbd was way better than the current version. The matchmaking was bad, but at least it was usable, the game wasn't balanced, but it was playable and overall the devs weren't like this. Dbd's problems were less and more controlable. Honestly I miss the days that we complained about Legion. What happened to DBD?
