When will the ptb end
You can only access the PTB on Steam
Not sure exactly but you’ll have to wait until at least 2v8 is over
Oh god, yes. They are just removing FUNDAMENTALS bruh. I don't really care about sky Wesker although it was fun. But rebounds being removed or broken is just terrible. Also hope this doesn't go live. It's just sad.
thanks i feel stupid
i hate playing against him tbh
like i enjoy huntress or springtrap or whatever but trickster is just so boring to play against
like with huntress its fun to dodge her hatchets, with trickster you just get spammed
if you have a good loop with cover hes useless but sometimes you dont yk
Devs are survivor mains, they'd rather buff the strongest perks of new survivor than keep those wesker changes out of live
community would make bhvr to revert it since its incredibly ruining for the weskey
And ik ppl call new map surv sided but... perhaps I didn't notice it much cuz I main chuck?
Also why queues are suddenly so long?
I do get it but... I mean I have been a survivor main myself for years but it doesn't change a thing. Started playing killers cause Wesker is interesting to master lol. But anyway these changes don't make any sense. Especially when you know there are Blight and Nurse who are definitely stronger then Wesker and haven't been nerfed for ages. And also Kaneki with his free hit (especially frustrating when it happens through textures, which devs don't care about). Nobody asked for such a freaking unnecessary nerf of Wesker - it was fun and interesting to play both as and aganst him. Press F to Wesker if that comes to live lol. Gonna switch to Blight or just gonna play survivor. So sad tbh
Ghoul being nerfed every patch, Chucky's already nerfed to oblivion
And Chucky's release once made me return to game after years
Devs don't care. They see someone obliterating them at loops, they nerf them
Meh. Devs are nerfing unnecessary stuff. Would rather have them concerned about actual bugs and issues. I mean Xeno mains once could revert the changes. Maybe Wesker mains will be able too :c
I would say its only good for stealth killers for this map since you won't see them coming until around the corner
thats why I used stealth trickster build on new map since he awful in new map and it worked well
Generally if you get in close range against Trickster you’re generally cooked, but to counter this your best move against him is just to hold W. More than any other killer. His knives deal one sixth of a damage state each and that sixth lasts ten seconds if he can’t hit another. Because he's 4.4 m/s and he slows down when aiming his knives, you should prioritize making distance rather than looping.
yeah i know
Run through pallets.
i just dont find it very engaging to play against
It is what it is.
Nurse's counter is trying to blind her while she's charging to make her fuck up. Lightborn Nurse just is a demon.
with a good nurse player you're really just fucked, she totally changes the dynamic of the game
I have no idea why Trickster has a lullaby and Nurse doesnt. Nurse shouldn’t be able to go completely undetectable.
Trickster doesnt need a lullaby 😭
I’m not a great Wesker player, but I really enjoy playing him. Using some of his techs to win games feels really fun and highly rewarding.
I understand fixing bugs(especially sometimes already catched the surviver without damage), but completely removing his tech just feels unnecessary. He’s not even that strong — those techs were part of what made him fun.
I just don’t really understand why they all had to be removed.
Exactly... I just hope that dbd community and content creators will revert all these sad changes :c
Strongly agree
Kaneki is weird on the new map. Is it just me or do the top halves of the buildings just not connect with his leap crosshair?
New map was fun with Springtrap and small enough that non-movement killers arent found dead in a ditch. I’ll try Singularity soon.
That shit makes no sense fr. Like ghoul is getting nerfed again and again. Why are they trying to kill the killer? How are console player supposed to play with ghoul now?
The only good thing about this ptb is the simple explanation of perks and customizable auras that's it.
They can use mouse and keyboard.... and for a good ghoul player that isn't a nerf lmao
Its a huge nerf to baby ghouls/ bad ghoul players
Not everyone is used to playing with kbm and most people won't change their playstyle because of a single killer. It's not an excuse to nerfing the killer every update.
Even without KBM, its still not a "nerf"
well, to bad ghoul players and baby ghouls it is a substantial one
but to those who actually know how to use his ability to fling onto survivors
it is a very good buff
Have you guys heard all the Korean people complaining about the signs in the new map ? Apparently the font is dull and the word choice is awkward.
If that's true I'm glad I don't understand Korean lol
played between normal trickster public and updated trickster, I kinda prefer his new rank just keep his speed or his knives back to 44
How good is the new survivors perks
Let's see how good the buff is in live.
Good, good, and great
It's VERY unlikely, but I pray the devs make a Prestige icon for OG Nemesis.
I don't like the remake ☹️
Doesn't flashlighting Nurse also make her unable to blink?
No just not able to use it any properly
Huh. I thought it made her unable to even charge it.
It used to but not anymore
Still confused why bhvr removed that
"You know what this game needs? A nurse buff"
it was pretty easy to abuse
"Lets remove a fun mechanic"
and I don’t think they’d want a killer to just be countered by an item
They do this a lot
Bruh I doubt most people even knew that.
I think it was getting more popular at the time cuz of content creators and more content creators were covering the comp side of dbd too
Crazy how Trickster is 4.4 but Blight is 4.6
it’s like the devs law that every ranged killer has to be 4.4 or smth
I think the devs don't actually want to balance the game. They want some killers to be over/underpowered
Also am I the only one who has camera moving differently on new map during mori? It's like getting to the left and back
I cant believe what they did to wesker this PTB bro💔 i might actually delete the game atp
Yeah I think the idea is to probably satisfy everyone’s little niche
if u had all the killers have really good kits that would be pretty bad
To satisfy survs they represent id say
We need every killer to have a decent kit
And none with a really good kit
It should be B- tier to A+ tier only
No S no C
I guess trapper is hard to buff
Idk how they could do that without making the game boring
For it chuck needs his old scamper back
I don't think it would make the game boring
Killers still have high skill ceilings
They nerfed most pallets right on mac coldwind
A really good Wesker or Oni can demolish most teams
But a really good Blight can win every game no matter what
Yeah but then ur balancing for the minority in the game if u balance for the top 1% of the killer players instead of the casual ppl
most ppl r pretty bad
i think blight is balanced for the top 1%
fun to vs and you can last like a minute if u have good rng vs him
But a good blight vs avg players will always win
Maybe they should nerf pig
they gotta nerf the new dude
yeah he's too slippery with all that oil on him
skill issue im afraid
koreans guy perks sound too good i dont like them
same for lee yun jins reworked ones
So, am I crazy or did trickster get worse? I've been playing on the ptb and he just feels worse. 
i am in ptb and why do i have 0 add ons and items same for offerings and when i buy a charecter it gets p100 on the screen but says its lv1
ig idk it’s kinda fun being able to just spam it mindlessly tho free brainless 4ks
he is worse imo
why in ptb do i not have 99 items or add ons on survivors and killers ?
well every presitge resets the level to one
I think its bugged.
I dont have a ton of every addon on every killer either. Only a selection of them
4.4 and less knives feel like the main culprit
Trickster mains online seem to be complaining about the 4.4 mainly
and the slowdown while throwing
Are the dark mist offering smore effective in the ptb?
think the PTB is glitching bc kates, quentins, and detective tapps p100 badges r all swapped
kate has quentins p100 badge, tapp has kates, and quentin has tapps
Im sure thst will be fixed at live
hopefully not its funny 🤣😭
imagine getting quentin to p100 just to unlock tapps badge 😭
it feels targeted aswell bc quentin and tapp r like 2 of the least used survivors
Bruh what did they do to my man wesker
RIGHT!?!?!?
survivor players being survivor players (I say this as someone who usually plays survivor)…
theres a difference between playing survivor and being a entitled bitch that cant handle doing dogshit against a MAYBE B- killer and thats giving him extra credit
GENUINELY
Ts is why I despise being labeled as a survivor players as I’m more of both but genuinely both sides have the people who complain about the other role with that stupid “us vs them” mentality that makes me want to tie a noose
like why can’t we just be nice to eachother… or maybe try playing the other side to realize the thing that’s “broken” isn’t actually broken it’s just a skill issue..
B tier is stretching it 
real shit
meanwhile nurse has yet to be touched 😃
Back to the “us vs them” mentality thing, I want to mention recently there’s been two instances where one side has a bug/issue that they complain about and then it gets fixed and then the other side complains
Killer was the nurse glitch teleport bug thing that got fixed within 1 week and survivors were upset
Survivors was the TBTC + that one brown wraith addon that they complained about and BHVR rewrote the entire perk/addon system just to shadow nerf it to appease them within 3 weeks
like both sides have their moments of BHVR catering to them and yet they still act like they’re starved in comparison to the opposite side..
thats why i said, "and thats giving him extra credit"
The perk/addon rework was in the works for a while and accompanied no balance changes, for instance Spirit Fury wasn’t actually nerfed
it just so happens, that 90% of the fuck wads are survivor players
Mb for the confusion. Your stretch is stretching it
lol it sure as fuck is
another reason, why HES NOT OP
did the turn back the clock wraith combo not get nerfed via that though? Since the addon only procs on default gen kicks not perks?
pretty sure it was hard nerfed sadly
Spirit Fury is stated to only proc on basic-breaks but it has not been changed and still works on special-breaks. I have not tested TBTC and Soot so I can’t speak to that in particular but nothing should be changed unless it was stated to in. The patch notes
You know what would be a fun trend
Make trickster 115% again and give him a few more knives is all I want.
Oh and maybe buff some add ons too I hate to see that there are gonna be add ons that do nothing at all and will never be used.
He has an addon that makes him 1% faster when throwing and another one that makes his knives to 2 lacerations if he is 32 METERS AWAY
So just two good add ons?…
There are a few add ons that make 0 sense for the record caged heart shoes gives you a whopping 1% increase in movement speed while holding knives 😂
Yeah 1% NOTHING. The new Edge of Revival Album is completely useless, if you actually get the 32 meter hit you are 110% and the 2 lacerations will have decayed by the time you can hit another
Yup. Idk this patch felt like a nerf for him. Skill shmill buff the guy already 😂 like pyramid head is right there laughing at the poor guy. (Blight too but hey he’s “over tuned”)
Them Making trickster worse when they tried buffing him twice is genuinely funny to me. I don't know what it is recently but they confuse buffs with nerfs when doing These types of changes. Like when they tried changing Xenos flame resistance. 
I like to combine it with Agitation, bc it can total a 20% speed bonus when carrying a survivor
his kit change (style etc) I've learned to work with, the addons? yeah the addons need work
they absolutely nuked trickster
I think the idea was to make his add-ons more gimmicky and "fun" to compensate for his new strength. Lucky blade being the best example.
Which on paper I don't hate, but he's not strong enough to really justify that design philosophy. Use that on blight, or nurse or something.
agreed. the crosshair addon also feels like it's just taking up a slot that could be used for something else
most monitors have a cross hair option
And them removing the main event activation when near a hook bugs me. Like I get why twins has it and even artist to a lesser degree, but trickster?
Caged heart shoes only applies while holding knives
Trickster needs to be 4.6 again 😭
Ah mb, I was thinking of another addon
This is gonna sound stupid but what does ptb stand for
public test build
this fucking sucks why is trickster so slow now he cant even catch up to hit blades
and why am i so heavily punished for using my ability at all ever
Survivors rage quit enough for the random trickster nerf
why can i use cenobite in the ptb but not myers
So um
Ya know how they said that the new map was set in place with no RNG?
That isn't the case. There is actual tile rng
Its most noticable if youre playing Trapper cause there is a pallet tile that can generate on top of one of his trap spawn locations
technically the grander scheme of the map is set in stone, but there is still noticable rng to junk tile placement
I making a bug report about this issue with the trap when it hit me that there is more RNG on this map than they seemed to imply.
The new map is gonna be crazy for stealth killer mains.
I've had purple scratch marks for a long ass time but holy they're almost invisible on this map, might have to change them
there should be a "Recommended" color option you can pick, that just picks the scratch mark color automatically based on the map
like the color that would contrast the most from whatever map youre on
true, or atleast be able to select a scratch mark colour for each map
thatd be nice but also tedious
Theyre perfectly visible onthis map for me
Its more the purple auras from the aura customization that is impossible to see
yeah it's visible for the most part but some areas have pure purple lighting thats why
Funniest thing to come out of this map is how reshade cheating doesnt work on it
why not
The colors emphasized make the entire screen fucked up
If we're being realistic, what do y'all think will change from the ptb to live when it comes to trickster? 
they will probably revert his movement speed back to 4.6 at the very least
thats universally what has been criticized
I'm just hoping his add-ons get adjusted because a lot of them seem useless. 
Yeah I hope Trickster goes back to 4.6. At 4.4 he's back to just being a Bad Huntress, especially with how gaps constantly get closed off in random patches.
maybe he should stay 4.4 so other players can know what its like to SUFFER
Really I'm not even sure what the rework aims to do besides bring the Combo system to the forefront for... minor buffs. Everything else just feels like going back to Launch Trickster or in some situations, weaker than Launch.
I really hope the wesker changes don't make it to live
Its not a rework its an update
From my understanding the idea is that he now by design actively rewards the player for being good at him as opposed to just spamming. It's working off of elements of his old kit but its not really just bringing that back.
Spamming has always been what sets Trickster apart though, weird as it is to say.
I don't know, it feels like the PTB brings Trickster's flavor up to modern standards (combo system, new animations, new voicelines, chase music variants, etc.) but the gameplay is probably going to need a few updates to smooth it out.
Would prefer they tie it to the rank ups
Below c -> 4.4
C and higher -> 4.6
S tier -> 4.8
yes
whoever thought of a shack with rounded corners needs a raise
why haven't they done this sooner. it's so good.
I also want to praise the design it's going to shake things up
wouldnt that just create the springtrap problem of inconsistency
also 4.8 at S tier is absolutely absurd
once you get to S tier you stay at S tier until you use main event
No?????
Lwky did NOT fix any of trickster problems but hey now we can be stylish
It’s on a timer, and unlike the other tiers it doesn’t pause while carrying
Also krasue is 4.8 in head form and his tr at s tier is 44 meters
I dont think it would be outrageous to give it to him
He is weaker but now he sounds like a slot machine and does bat tricks so it’s an acceptable tradeoff
Every trickster main seems to think hes a home run now outside of movement speed
And his addons
Lwky a nerf but now we can pretend trickster
Have u tried him
Not particulsrly
Maybe i’m bias because new map is rlly awful for him but he did not feel great
New map is weird for him for him what I experienced as survivor
Theres allyways that are death zones against him and then theres the interiors of the building and the junk tiles
Didnt they say in the stream that the map was made with him in mind?
Or is my memory being off again
I guess they dont like him 😭
Although tbf i think a big city map like this is just always gonna be rough for him
Map is awesome outside of some building loops being too stupid though
Needs tweaks but overall it’s not bad yeah
And it’s gorgeous, easily the best map visually
The market and park area should reallt have had more deadzone
I dont like the funky shape they gave shack
And yeah market is insufferable
Also mosh pit is rlly awful if ur playing someone who can’t hit over it
wtf does trickster do vs a quad gen rush squad
I hate the hard square loop in the market
hes too slow to have any pressure now
4.4 is bad yes
perfect accuracy and it takes one god pallete to remove all blade progress
So hows the new map? Im on console so i cant test it
It’s beautiful and really detailed. It is a bit on the survivor side tho, having multiple god-pallets that connect to each other AND connect to shack. But I’m sure there will be some changes before it comes to live servers
I mean we do need a few survivor sided ones. A lot of the maps lately have been more on the killer’s side.
Yeah I agree, but this map is just a bit too much in the survivors favor. If you’re a 4.4 killer (LIKE TRICKSTER FOR SOME REASON) you’re cooked lmao
As well as ranged killers, ranged killers are 4.4 anyways lol
I mean it is meant to be his own personal hell so i guess that tracks 😂
Truuue haha
It just needs some tiny adjustments, doesn’t need to be gutted
when does the ptb end?
two or three days
I find it lowkey funny that the new trickster map, isn't the most trickster friendly
funny as in "why?!"
it's just too much ground to make up for killers that aren't teleport-like or speed demons
was about to try out more stealth oriented killers til i noticed i have no add-ons on em while other killers have 99 of every add-on
is this intended? 😭
like by exemple legion has 99 of each, clown and trickster do too
but pig, demogorgon, singularity and dracula dont
oh and i guess this applies to survivors too
dwight has 99 of everything aswell as nea and david
but kwon, feng and kate dont
Why is ptb pc only?
Its nearly impossible for them to do crossplat PTBs, so they never tried
Its been steam only cause thats how they've always done it and find its easiest for them to do it that way
Boooo I play console
Its impossible for them to do it on console. Also steam is the native platform for the game.
Open ptb up to console please so maybe queues will be under 15 mins
Queues r pretty good this ptb tbh but i am gluttonous and want more
They were pretty good because there wasnt a new killer
Every time theres a new killer, que times for killer are longer and survivors often instsntly disconnect upon seeing a killer thst isnt the new one.
Hell people still did this against me in this PTB sometimes (mostly streamers) because I wasnt playing trickster
I honestly think que times would be worse if console player could participait
Not being able to talk about stuff in postgame chat as regularly would suck ass too
what did they do to my boy wesker 😔
Sent to c tier dungeon
they made him untuck
Might just be me but I'm noticing very poor 3 gen potential on the new map, so that's fun. 
That's a wonderful change
I think there was 1 I saw that was kinda decent involving the main building and the streets, but if you don't roll that, kinda screwed if the game gets that far.
It's a fucking nightmare
Yo I had a bug in chucky on the ptb how do I report it again ??
if fast tracks makes it past ptb like this killers are cooked
Stuff like the fast track rework makes me think the guys in charge of designing the killer perks and the survivor perks aren't allowed to test them and it's handed off to someone who's scared to give criticism to play test for a couple bot matches. I know that's not what happens but thats what it feels like at times. 
fast track? tbh idk if it needed this change?
since PTB release i was calling how this perk change will make stakeout + hyperfocus even more OP if you add this perk 😭
God what an stupid change of a perk
6% usage?
the perk now on PTB 3 tokens per survivor hook which each token gives 2% permanent repair on the gen you are repairing if you hit a great skill check and you can carry a maximun of 9 tokens
if you use 9 tokens you can gain more tokens for next hook
plus the brandnew parts 10% progress and invo weeping its crazy you're basically no mither for the rest of the game with infinite UB
not only it directly worsen the gen rush issue but also makes gen regression perks because now the % its lower
i still think invo weeping its NOT worth running but running this perk + hyperfocus + brand new parts + stakeout will make gen rushing HELL
true
who tf thought that giving survivors 6% permanent repair on gens every time a killer gets a hook is good idea
if 3 people are on a gen with the perk and killer hooks the fourth
Deja vu is better for that 6%
the survivors can get 18% permanent repair
no risk
if all 3 hit a great skill check, this is some heavy BS
no risk and no counterplay from the killer besides slugging
true
and you can break the 3 gen early in game
oh yea. i rely on that heavy. in my games most people i play with dont touch gens when im in chase really annoying. so i gotta brake off chase and go gen rush
i always run bond on soloQ for this reason, i just sit on a gen and with UI and bond i can tell when i should move from gen or when is save to stay in it
i swear bond is the best perk if you know how to take advantage of the UI info
in soloQ of course lmao
yeah. how familiar are you with vee's tambourine perk is it for other survivors the get more skil checks. so if you are running solo the lute perk is better?
on solo im not really sure
i just hope most this PTB changes dont got live, visuals on PTB are gorgeous but the gameplay on this PTB took horrible choices
yeah. i feel like the trickster's rework was basically aesthetic .ill have to play him and see for myself
new fast track will definitely be problematic as is, if all survivors are running it then it basically reduces the amount of gens in the trial to like 3.75 instead of 5
I think they should just change it from 3 tokens per hook to like 2 tokens or some shit and make the upper limit 8
at 2/3rds of its current strength I think it would be viable and not overpowered as it is now
the issue is that even if is 1/3 of the strengh it got rn is that is PERMANENT repair progress, if the survivors get permanent progress on the 3 gens then they can then just do the safe gens and in the last 3 gens they will repair them without issue and also that the perk got 0 cost, 0 time needed to get value and is just passive value that its straight up better than Brand new parts which is the best addon for toolboxes....
nah be honest it would be dogshit if you got 1 token
1 token is 2% which if all 4 survivors bring perk then every time you hook someone they get a free permanent 6%
0 cost isnt true every perk has a cost in the sense it takes up a slot
if youre gonna say that 1 token fast track would be too strong when it would be dogshit and a complete waste of a perkslot im not even gonna bother arguing with that
that argument doesnt mean much, cost talks about what the perk takes to get value saying the perk slot is a cost means every single perk got a cost which isnt true
if every single hook you get as killer gives free passive 6% permanent repair to survivors then yes it would still be problematic even if way less than 18% for hook
brand new parts gives 9%, its a iri addon and 1 time use
4 people running fast track is a potential 4 ds's gone, a potential 4 unbreakables gone, a potential 4 lithes gone, a potential 4 resiliences gone,
sounds to me like you dont want people to run anything other than the same 10 perks theyve been running
a 1 token fast track is completely dogshit, its 15 seconds off of 1 gen, deja vu is stronger than that
we dont complain deja vu is overpowered do we?
thats like saying bringing resilience isnt strong because "4 people running resilience is a potential 4 ds's gone, a potential 4 unbreakables gone and potential 4 lithes gone"
we certainly dont complain weaving spiders is OP do we? thats 80 charges, more than 4 fast tracks can ever get if theyre one token, and thats with 2 of your teamates probably dead
dude the perk actives for EVERY hook not only the first one, getting a possible total of 6 tokens would be 90 seconds off a gen for FREE
how are you gonna insta pop a gen if youre entire team is dead I dont get it
the difference is one takes you to be injure whole match, takes time for invocation and you waste time unlike the oother you need to do nothing but get great skill check which with hyperfocus doesnt matter
dude 6 hooks means your other 3 teammates are on detah hook, not death 9 hooks would be all your team death
actually why am I even taking you serious, you think 2% off a gen for a hook (6% if the ENTIRE TEAM is running it, wouldnt even add up to a pain res) is overpowered
a single shoulder the burden is 10x more damaging
6% for EVERY HOOK
at the cost of 4 perks btw
clearly youre unaware how many more damaging perks can be chosen over a 2% fast track
if i get a total of 72% of a gen gone passive in exchange for 4 perks i would not care
6 x 12 btw
yeah you just refuse to do math
entire team dead, or are we using this in 2v8
average high MMR lobby, someone is dead at 4 hooks, 24% has been taken off a gen(at the cost of 4 perks btw), survivors are now operating at half efficiency
and you think that this 24% is the most game changing thing to ever be observed
Yeah no longer worth arguing, im trying to explain to you for 10 times and now i get mix the number and thats your only argument
enjoy whatever you wanna think and killer being miserable
you were never worth arguing with in the first place lmao, you dont understand how a game actually progresses, or the value of actually good perks, perks are probably 80% of ANY players strength, giving up 4 of them for what adds up to maybe a grand total of 40% of a generator in a actual match is a DOGSHIT trade,
the fact you think its worth picking over something like DS Unbreakable Deadhard vigil botany sprint burst finesse, adrenaline, we'll make it, lithe, resilience, prove thyself, resurgence, wglf, dramaturgy, hyperfocus, deliverance, plot twist, stb, babysitter, or OTR is insane to me
a single DS can enable a survivor to buy enough time for 100% of a gen, survivors can bring four of those you know
I elected to suggest a reasonable nerf to keep a perk worth choosing so that maybe someone would use something out of that box, all you suggested was to kill the perk entirely because youre scared of different perks ever getting used
long live painres dms corrupt pop + ds dh ub resi
Is it me or is Self-Preservation such a good perk now?
its pretty good, but it can be sabotaging your team passively if you arent using it properly
I think its funny how the highlight of this guys issue with the perks in the game would be in a 1 token fast track, when self preservation + deliverances lets you unhook yourself and not have your aura read or scratch marks or noise or blood trails for probably an additional 20 seconds, causing the killer to lose astronomical pressure
Kind of?
in retrospect it was weird noone was running it in the PTB
It becomes a massive problem when all 4 survivors are running it
I've ran into swfs with the quad setup
Only 1 needs weaving, the rest can replace it with one prove thyself and two deja Vus, 4 bnp because the BP economy is thriving and boom
You are now hard punished for doing your job as killer
Secret Project goes hard on Iri Photocard Trickster. The perk fully counters the downsides of the addon while you get to have free undetectable and information at the press of a button for the cost of your main event.
when are we getting more male crop top skins like the Felix one?
next year
After a few rounds on the new map I can say that it feels perfect for Rize and Kaneki
try deerkstalker or DMS with it lmao
Not only does it have a lot of space to use your power but it also fits Ghoul in general
well they also buffed the shit out of ghoul for no reason
We finally got a unique map instead of a goddamn reskin with a few set pieces cough Freddy's cough
How so? I'm not noticing anything
vault backing against ghoul is removed
which was one a very few counterplays
BHVR described it as a quality of life change btw
I mean that's kind of the thing though
People like to stand around during a Kagune vault,
Which allows them to get hit, that isn't a bug by the way
why are we talking about bugs
it used to be if you entered at the right angle you could dodge the kagune vault and get back over to the other side of the pallet, which was one of the few limited counterplays against ghoul, they made it physically impossible to do that now, that is a blatant buff disguised as "optimization"
and then theres another example of BHVR nerfing forced hesitation for some reason by making it so you can plot twist to deny the killer its value
and plot twist is already a top 10 perk(not in usage but value) so its not like this is some super niche scenario
Appraisal, specialist, fast track and brand new parts with 2 people can just 100% a generator if both survivors do the brand new part at the same time, it all stacks together
And sadly awakened ghoul cannot be mixed with kaneki
I still don't get why that counts as a model change
You know there's just something that I've noticed about survivor perks
A lot of them are direct counters to killer perks, But there's not a lot of killer perks that are counters to survivor perks
Like there's nothing you can do to counter a lithe or sprint burst
languid touch absolutely counters exhaustion perks
And they already nerfed turn back the clock
And then there was that weird update with... Spirit fury?
the reason there arent many counters to survivor perks is because majority of survivor perks are personal protection perks
spirit fury was not changed
tbtc was not nerfed, a bug synergy with wraiths shadow dance was fixed
because tbtc is not a break action, you do not perform anything
Yeah but it always sucks when I'm getting a down or I'm so close to getting a down and then those 30 seconds are immediately invalidated by a perk
So gens just went off and I got nothing out of it
But why is that really a bad thing, I think wraith needs some synergy, otherwise he's basically an useless m1 killer
a lot of killer powers inheritly can counter exhaustion, something like DS is meant to be powerful because its an anti tunnel perk, meant to counter tunneling, which is a strategy that can apply extreme pressure early on in a game
I noticed that it kind of was when I tried to use SF, enduring, and legion pin
placebo effect
all pallet breaks except knight and vorpal sword charge spirit fury, its always been that way
for what its worth theres not a single survivor perk in the game that counters top tier killers
But I mean what else do I have? Gen Regression strategies and perks got nerfed heavily, I can't do anti heal Because there's so many healing perks,
DS against a blight? he will just down you the millisecond he is unstunned, same with nurse, exhaustion perks? he will hit you anyways (s)hes faster
committing to chases is anti heal
Unless you run to a pallet
Which given the density in the current patch
no? they will both still just instantly down you regardless
if you think a blight cannot outplay any filler in 4 seconds you are wrong
Then again I play controller so
Blight kind of feels wonky to play, or maybe my timing is off
if youre playing killer on controller thats probably why it feels that way
controller is dogshit for almost every killer, even controller lovers in this game switch to kb&m when theyre on killer
DBD does after all have native kbm support
I'm kind of forced to play controller in some way
nevermind I am wrong about native kbm but xims are allowed
My console is literally just a computer inside of a controller
dbd on a switch is wild icl
I dont even know how games run on that thing its gotta be connected some cloud base streaming service cuz theres no way
That's how it is actually
so the new elusive perks completely counters nurse calling and half of the onryo scourge hook perks, that's wild i hope it will have a cooldown it's absurd
I wish Nintendo would let BHVR make a Switch 2 port. 😢
a place for us only counters nurses calling, why does it need a nerf?
self preservation fucks over the rest of your team and mainly only counters ftte bbq and chili, theres only a chance it counters floods of rage, hardly absurd at all, the only thing absurd about self preservation is it activates on yourself when you get hooked
when will new trickster patch drop?
Two weeks from now I think. Give or take.
Maybe three.
Does anyone else here think the new map is too big?
It's big. Not toooo big. It's not old RPD. But it's still big.
Way the rng works makes up for it though
Its bias towards different portions of the map
I die on hook on 2v8 RPD (old RPD) [......]
one perks that totally counters another and require no efforts ?
nurses calling doesnt require any effort either, self preservation is a personal buff, perks like this exist, theyre not problematic
still has a condition = 32meters, this perks has none, it completely counters nurse calling, it's tiring to see that surv despite having 4 times the amount of killers perks, still have perks that are as good if not better than killers one
no shit it has a range, did you think they would give you map wide aura reading for survivor performing a required task?
a place for us is a terrible perk theres no way were having this conversation, it counters a nurses calling and thats ALL it does, it has 0 usage for anything else
and it only counters it for the people using it, if youre trying to reset then the auras will be revealed when the person that doesnt have it starts to heal you
and if 4 people are running a place for us just to counter nurses calling then its not really an issue at ALL
i can't play killers on it really. survivors it's fun, but killers? yeah, good luck.
The issue with it in terms of survivor bias is all the windows
Theres a lot of god windows and stuff
Actual glass windows are also partially translucent, so you can see through them providing more visibility than was probably intended.
Some stupid pallets too in some areas
Elusive perks?
Three perks in the game that grant Elusive:
Self-Preservation, A Place For Us, Extrasensory Perception
bugged pallets btw on the new map, some don't let you drop when running through them
bro feels like every killer in the ptb is a legion and every survivor is a wannabe bully lmfao
makes me miss mmr
Fixed every “bug” except window slaps still not working
He’s actually bottom b tier high c tier now, rip to the GOAT 😔
I doubt his changes will make it to live
Fast track is insane
the ptb map have so much issue around the door 😭
exit gates aren't working its funny asf
and the legion sometimes can't vault the pallet during frenzy
If this perk becomes mainstream popular with it being as popular as Windows, this is going to make playing low tier killers miserable.
Playing low tier killers is already kind of miserabel against people who know what theyre doing
It does require your team to be losing, low tier killers won't suffer nearly the amount higher ones will
So what youre saying is thst lower tier killers wont suffer because they wont be hooking people to begin with?
Can someone interpret this addon? The wording is confusing to me.
Makes it takes longer for style ranks to go down while you arent rank S
Yeah, a better killer will get downs faster and Fast Track will stack faster
What does it stacking faster have to do with anythinf
Youre still getting it regardless.
Well you'd be getting more of it is my point
Hell the best killers in the game coukd arguably tunnel someone out before they even get a chance to use the perk.
Yeah, honestly. But I think most killers won’t be too bugged by the perk in general. I personally haven’t found my PTB matches harder when people run any version of build involving Fast Track
i cant tell if my inability to find a match is because nobody is playing rn or if the servers are just funny because its a test server
They call me a trophy wife because of the way I am spinning. But for real, this needs to be fixed before the patch goes live.
Glitch spot i take it?
No hacks. I'm just stuck in this spot for eternity now.
Like the killer was hacking and put you there?
No, the spot it totally possible to get to as survivor.
I will show you a clip, but this spot I got to makes it so I'm completely stuck. Killer can't get you out of course because why would a malevolent being do so.
removed rebounds and a variety of hug techs and added a delay in between dashes so removed insta flicks bro actually has nothing anymore
I have been freed from my prison.
also like, having main event only possible after reaching S style is kind of.....
the more I try out the new mechanics on trickster the more i go "im guessing no one tried it before this?"
What happened to BNP
Resilience nerf on PTB?
now why did they do that
Can anyone tell me if you can only access the public test build on pc
what's the nerf?
no repair speed bonus
It takes 20% longer to lose a stylw
nice
I was bringing this up to make a point that lower power killers suffer more from this
Public Testing Build Discussion
As usual with PTB we got visuals 11/10 and gameplay 5/10
i think only real good thing is that doing chest now can be useful
if you stack fast track and specialist 😭
I have to say, there are too many pallets on this map, like I literally had 2 spawn within 3 feet of each other, it's kinda unfair to the killers as a survivor main
yeah with 2v8 they added more pallets to 1v4
oh wait i'm a dumbass you're talking about the trickster map
I played killer on it and it's fine, most pallet loops are just weak so it doesn't matter, they're all like 50/50s
the map is hell for ranged killers from what ive seen
stealth killers thrive on it
yess, if you have enough distance there's some big loops you can run them on for a while
Yes definitely horrible for ranged killers
I did play oni on it and it was ok for the most part but man there are some parts of the map where there's just so much shit
bhvr yet again cooking with the art and animation but absolutely selling the game design
has it become a trend to release a killer with a map and have the map be horrible to play with said killer on 💔
Hag and Trapper is so much fun on it
Main build and its surrounding areas are insane for traps
Is the new map survivor or killer sided
Survivor sided as hell due to insane window placements in the buildings and two car loops.
I assume they will be removing a bunch of windows when the map goes live.
in terms of detail the map is stunning, fingers crossed we get a city map for tokyo or bangkok in the same realm
You think the new map is going to dethrone eerie of crows or garden of joy in terms of annoyance? 
if it stays the way it currently is yeah
It depends on how they change it for live
Theres way too many god windows
And other dumb shit that needs to be tweaked
is the new map small or big? I main pinhead so honestly map size is the only thing I give a shit about lol
when is ptb closing?
looks big af
i need a whole album/EP release for the upcoming All-Kill chapter, especially Tae's theme
When it's bingo
I think the map itself is pretty big but the playable area is on the smaller side
Playable as in not filler or playable as in you can physically get there?
As in you cannot get there
Actually it's not pretty big it's like slightly above average I think?
I don't remember 😭
i just realized main event cant be used anywhere close 20 meters of hooks to avoid using it when someome unhooks.... bro
its beetwen midwich and racoon city size
The wording was confusing to me, but it makes sense now if you exclude "from D to A". Since that's the case, this addon is amazing.
Its a fairly average in size but feels bigger due to all the buildings and stuff. Its also sectioned into different districts with their own sorts of layouts which the gen rng biases between
is the map more or less survivor sided than lery's/gideon
more i would say because holy shit the amount of god pallets and the strengh of the god windows included with being all the downsides of an indoor map
Way more in its current state with all its god windows and chainable tiles
im sure theyll rebalance it but the box spawns are never gunna get changed for obvious reasons so that's what im in anticipation for, guess I could play ptb but I don't really feel like getting death threats and shit just bc I didn't play the reworked character
I do wish they built around getting knife combos more with trickster with a harsher punishment for missing but more reward for chaining hits, would make him feel more unique and might actually get people excited to master him
Its mostly just streamers that do tjat
I played Hag and Trapper during the PTB and didnt get nearlt as many DCs as I usually do.
People only really DCed against me as Hag
"who the fuck plays Hag?" - a streamer before immedietly dcing against me in the ptb
😭
what’s ptb sorry i’m new gen✌️😢
Public test build
Its a beta for people to test the new stuff coming
Steam launcher only
ohh okay
Who are you playing asss
im not playing anymore i saw the 2 sec gen video and uninstalled the 30 sec gens were already bad enough from last update
...
Literally PBT it will probably be balanced 😭
im sure people will complain and theyll remove it before it hits live but its a pattern theyre showing time and time again the dont like the killer players so im not staying they dont like me
The number was too big is all
Honestly this really isnt anything to throw a fit
This is the same PTB that brough back old Pop
As in, when you kick a generator it instantly regresses 20% like pain res.
Idk if it's a bug or not but why is Steve's picture on Nancy and Vice versa
such a nothingburger way more things to complain about in this game
it makes a nice tiktok clip but the setup for that is already game ending lol
.
fr
people are acting like it'll happen every game where all survivors get the max stacks of tokens lol
I just want to remind everybody that during the PTB of the anti-tunneling update, survivors were intentionally wearing the same skin or throwing themselves at the killer in order to die early and get that permanent Gen speed buff
I can even vouch for this happening because I was a solo q in a swf and I got SANDBAGGED
It wasn't gen speed buff it was literally locking the killer out of damaging generators
It was that and gen speed
google AI is not a good source citing
Let me go to the actual update page
also I remember it also blocking gen damage
Even if there was a speed buff that was the bigger deal
And I don't know why people are saying that fast track is nothing burger in this ptb
When you're playing soloQ not a lot of survivors are actually good at the game
I mean it's basically giving you permanent gen progress for your teammate sucking ass
Which alot of average players already do in chase
There's nothing wrong with that but it's still kind of busted
Wdym people are saying its a nothingburger
Its like the click bait thumbnail "devs are survivor biased this game is dead" thing this ptb
Its absolutely overtuned
Actually quite recently
I've seen a lot of people on Reddit try to defend it for some reason
A lot of people point to the fact that not every survivor would have max stack and not all 4 survivors would have it equipped
But even then I've played a couple rounds with it on and I felt like I was doing gens incredibly fast
Exactly lol if that update actually came live it would have been even worse experience for killers.
when does the ptb go live?
are you fucking serious, WHY would that be a good idea
that isnt even fucking tunneling if there is say, a dumb fuck thats afk and gets killed or someone in a swf sacrifices themselves, god damn survivor sided fuck ass game
Sometimes I feel like bhvr listens to the fuckin' SWF bully squads more than people who play proper survivor
exactly, they dont listen to the actual players they just listen to the fucks that cant play killer for the life of them and just think that every time they lose 'oH tHe KiLLeR iS sO oP aNd NeEdS tO bE nErFeD" again and again
the majority of anti-tunneling and anti-slugging ideas they put in (the old PTB, to clarify) are just... "the survivors aren't skilled enough, let's hand them a mulligan x10"
People constantly complaining about how Hag can traps hooks is so insufferable
complaining about HAG of all killers thats just lovely
the game isn't supposed to be "balanced" or "fair", you're a normal person going against an often supernatural serial killer (save when you're Alucard, then you're a nerf'd dhampir); you're supposed to work harder/smarter to win
tell any survivor main that, they sure as fuck cant understand that
I play 50/50, I'm saying it from experience
Its not lovely when you are subject to it and have to worry about behavior butchering her in an update
that was sarcasm
im not such a dumb ass that i think thats actually lovely
I thought you meant lovely as in amusing
yeah, you arent a survivor main, you understand that to understand the game you need to play both, not just fucking play survivor and say anytime you play against a good killer they are either hacking or overpowered
My favorite example of this was playing as HUNK, with an anti-sabo build (best I can describe it), and I had all four survivors down in less than a minute. Because they all were planning on either doing flashlight saves or sabo-ing the hook
I had Mad Grit and Agitation
that a legion skin right?
I feel like I learn more about how to better play both sides when I play both sides
Yeah, I didn't even need to use my power after the first run
what a shocker you get better when you play to get better
I don't even have 1000 hrs in, and I have 50% of the achievements
Balance is key here
also, I have the RPD map memorized, which helped me play RE2. It's a side note, but I figured a small chuckle would help ease moods
It's a lot bigger than the RPD map I memorized at age 7 playing RE2 on my playstation 0
And that's what happened in the PTB, you had swf's either sacrificing one of their own, or sandbagging the outlier who's in solo q for the buff
which what a shocker doesnt make anyone like this game, killer or survivor being sacrificed i really REALLY hope this dogshit change doesnt go live
It didn't go live
that like a old change?
That anti tunneling and anti slugging update happened months ago yeah
The PTB was awful for killer and awful if you weren't swf
well thank fucking god then that it didnt
i saw TWO people get a zero percent gen done IN LIKE 4 SECONDS
Behold, faster gens by doing terribly
pretty sure 2 weeks after the PTB ends, meaning it's literally just in two weeks
yeah almost all full SWF teams I went against were min maxxing for speed or gen repair
fast track, stake out, prove thyself, hyper focus (or deja vu)
or five moves ahead paired with sprint burst and finesse and any means necessary
so good luck chasing a loop (especially on Trickster's Delusion) if you aren't a speed/teleport killer and slowing down gens
the speed of the survivor you're more than likely chasing, their ability to reset pallets, vault fast, with their teammates using the repair gen strat
you can really only fully build to counter one or the other, if you dont full spec into one, doing it by half isnt enough
ive slowly started to hate the new map...
absolutely loving it when i was playing Wraith and Legion, we love small maps
the fact you gain 3 tokens is ridiculous
wish i could say the same 😭
At least its different than tire and box slop
In regards to the new map itself; aesthetically and mood wise I love the map, the pallet density and god windows needs to be adjusted
god windows can be argued since you can just walk like three meters to the left of most of them and be on the other side
Since we can change the colors of scratch marks and auras now can we have Red Borgo back
What do you mean, most tiles suck for survivors
there's plenty of double pallets one way pallets and indoor then out of window vaults
Is that sarcasm or
well yeah, it's more so about chaining the tiles, especially on this map
There are parts of the map were god windows chain into eachother
And then into a pallet
No,
Oh I main ghoul so people really can't chain on this mal against me before I slingshot
I had a blast playing Hag and Trapper because it was easy to lock down the area around the main building
You cna trap those loops if need be
guys we need more male crop top skins like the Felix one >///<
And the Jake one just don't make it a Canadian tuxedo
give alan wake a crop top
PTB's closed right
I'm on it right now and still finding lobbies, so as of now it's still up
Ah cool ty
though there are a lot of things i'd like to see get changed before coming live (some survivor perks, pallet density, and certain trickster kit and addons)
the voice lines, new animations, and the map design is just
aaah that's the stuff
how is everyone finding the ptb i havent played it
Hey guys is the ptb still active?
No
does 5 moves ahead replace windows?
For the most part yeah
Assuming it doesnt have its cooldown increased by a significant ammount or something
did ptb end?
When is this gonna release
idk
i believe its march 17th
Did anyone run around maybe in customs and count the amount of pallets in the new map to compare with the live release?
Never thought to
I got to explore quite a bit, ill try to go look at my vod to see

is jester overpowerd?
jester?
Do you mean Trickster? no he is not
yes my bad trickster... lmao every clip ive seen of him has been him being op
he's not op but new players struggle countering him
pretty much
anyone else sick and tired of the mmr system. I am sitting on 15 min queue times almost just because there arent enough people in my mmr rank. #bringbackoldrankedsystem
your queues are long because of 2v8, not your mmr
Trickle needs buffs but the rework feels nice
Map is cool but rough to play on for some killers. Also needs tweaks to window spawns
Is PTB over?
Its been over for a while now
Today right?
Didnt it ends a few days ago?
I just played yesterday
Huh
I played the PTB yesterday
How to get rid of an 85kg chicken fast
its insane because when i was trying out every killer back when i first came back after my 4 year hiatus i absolutely loathed trickster. he felt horrible, clunky, weak, and unfun. but the few matches i played in the ptb were fun. Trickster actually felt pretty good. I was so surprised.
I do definetly think it would be nice with a few buffs though. I can see him being 4.6, but at the same time he doesn't have to be. I'd rather get multiple small buffs to his kit rather than a single big buff like to his speed. Perhaps increasing his walkspeeds with knives out, reducing decay rates on style points/laceration, more buffs from higher style ranks, buffs for certain addons cough shoes cough, etc.
Plus, i feel like having trickster be 4.6 with how fast he can kill now is slightly risky and limits him from being buffed in other ways in the future.
I want the speed to be tied to rank ups
Wouldnt that be janky
So at c or b tier he goes up to 4.6 and then at s tier he goes to 4.8
S tier being 4.8 is incredible stupid lol
I think it would feel pretty natural
it also made me sad. i took a break from dbd since like november, and only came back to try the ptb today. played two matches then hopped off, then came back a few hours later and the ptb was gone😭
i wanted to play more of the reworked trickster. i tried playing trickster on live but he felt soooo bad
Why even throw knives at that point
He speed up with everything else he does as ranks increase
He has a 44 meter tr so there’s lots of prerun time
Krasue is 4.8 base
4.8 is just a scary way of saying 5% haste
i feel like 4.8 while in s rank is fine since it degrades so fast
thats already an addon. though him going to 4.6 at S rank might work. still, i don't think touching his movement speed is the right choice.
In head form, which cant injure survivors that arent infected and has a weird lunge
it takes a minute+ to degrade lol. its the longest style derank timer
ah sorry i didn't play ptb much and didn't touch killer at all ㅠㅠ
The lunge is stronger than normal lunge so i dont rlly understand ur point there
From Ive heard the big thing trickster mains dont like is how slow he moves while throwing or sometbing
sidenote, but i hate playing krasue. so jank and clunky.
It’s effectively faster since it doesn’t pause while hooking
Unlike other tiers
People said the exact same thing durring her PTB. Behavior answered by removing her limitations that made her feel clunky, which resulted in her becoming S tier due to how stupid her mobility and antiloop was
yeah me too. they reduced his speed while throwing to 3.68 or so, down from 3.86. i think they should bring it back up again or find a middle ground. especially since he gets slower the more knives he throws.
also, the shoes are completely pathetic now. a 1% increase in movement speed while holding knives. its on the level of potion of speed or knotted rope. absolutely atrocious addon design.
The clunkiness of her lunge was the skill floor/ceiling
Now she is braindead easy and insufferable to vs
yeah, i know
Knotted rope is so funny to me that they’ve just left it like this
shes easy but shes not braindead, and she suffers hard in short loops to the point where its more effective to go into body form at places like car loops or even some jungle gyms, at which point the survivor can often just rotate to another loop for free due to how slow the transformation is.
not saying krasue should transition faster or even get buffed. i admit i'm not good at her, but she feels sooo clunky and unresponsive to me. i just can't play her.
BHVR has a bad habit of just avoiding certain addons. there are a few addons that they've added, tried to balance, and then just completely given up on and made them worthless rather than try to balance them. it sucks complete ass and is just lazy on their part.
i made this video on potion of speed and it got some 1.5k upvotes on reddit, so i know i'm not alone in feeling that
First one easy
i'm nto using it in either lol
Fuck 🥀
That video had me dying ngl
surprised the chat hasn't been closed yet
Suddenly the channel gets locked until the next ptb
exactly this.
give trickster a gun please
gives off the same energy of hear me out, basekit Trick Blades
that could work too
Unknown gets the uvx bounce regardless of addons why can't Trickster hehe
Meow
yeah clearly knifes should be able to bounce around
See? You get it
how much longer is PTB open for??
it's closed already
ty
oh oops i forgot to take part
how was it everyone whats the vibe
new map is beautiful but not that fun for killer imo, especially dash or ranged ones
I thought it was an outdoor map? I thought it was indoor maps that were less fun
How is the new surv
It technically is outdoor but it plays like an indoor one since it's an urban environment, lots of winding alleys and actual indoor locations like shops and nightclubs
about the new surv I don't really know since I didn't look into it but I've heard he has some cool perks
fair fair fair
I know I'm in the minority but i love inside maps so I'm excited for it
I like them for the variety they offer until I have to play a killer like blight
Its super fun for trapper
Its very easy to lock down the area around the main build.
when does the ptb end
nvm
agreed x2
yikes. but is that ptb related?
$blur the name pls
It looks like you have someone’s name that should be blurred in your screenshot--If something negative is being shown, such as DCs or someone talking trash, please blur their names. Feel free to reupload the new version! Thank you!
meow
Woem
I’ve also heard the survivors perks are cool but one I’ve seen criticized for being a worse version of windows of opportunity so idk
Wait why is this chat still open lmao
PTB CHANNEL NOW CLOSED
Thank you for using it! It will reopen on the next ptb.
Hooray!!!
Is anyone else having a perk bug? Both me and my friend are having a bug where some killers/survivors can only use general perks. This seemingly doesn't affect killers who were prestiged in older PTBs
yeah its annoying
Yeah makes the ptb kinda pointless tbh cos the whole point is to test perks with diminishing returns but no perks are available
everyone is gettting it
yup
can someone explain the skull merchant section?
Added support to multiple Power icons.
New Power Icons mapped to Deploy Drone, Rotate and Recall actions.
Just power icon updates, no mechanical changes
thank you! i figured !
W perk selection
weird
were you able to fix it last ptb? maybe the fix can work here too
Mine is crashing whenever I use the -dx11 launch setting, but then when im not using that launch setting Its stuck on the initializing shaders screen
ahhh I also use -dx11
I'll remove it just to see
Yeah, the initializing shaders thing is probslly just on my end
I wonder why -dx11 is causing crashes tho
This is what fixed it for me last time
Hope that helps
WE DONT EVEN HAVE PERKS UNLOCKED ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!?
click their bloodweb
On certain characters i do but i bought Blight in the PTB and he has nothing outside of what i just spent BP on
Actual bs
Still no consistent Weaken re-aplication on Unknown.
If you gonna "Buff" him can we get at least that?
like a legit pointless ptb ngl hope they fix it
Welcome to playing killer on the PTB
Killer changes will usually result in longer queues
okay this is true. Also remove -d3d11 if you use it
He has add ons and he can snipe unhooks and gens.
Youre just going to have land your shots big guy
It's happening to everyone
true
So in the meantime we either gotta use our characters from old ptbs or beginner builds
Its so awful. Cant even use perks on Blight who was the ONE killer i'm even in this ptb for
You can still play him. Why do you need to run a full meta build and sweat in order to test his chase
Survivors can literally DC in the first 2 seconds of the match you sit 30 min in que for. Like chill out and test. Stop.
I'm going to run expose dredge for the sole reason he got a slight movement speed while holding remnant buff
Who even mentioned full meta or sweating lmao. I don't have ANY perks unlocked. And what if i wanted to use my usual build that i run outside of the PTB?
This just straight up shouldn't be something that has been happening in the past like 3 or 4 ptbs. Every PTB has had some kind of progressively worse problem involving addons and perks
Other ptbs for me were never THAT long i gave up and went in custom just to find out that mina's mori is bugged with trickster's 💀
Why are BHVR so scared of making a drastic change to a killer unless it's to nerf them??? For Springtrap they should've just made him permanently 4.6 m/s and made restaurant menu completely basekit so they can change the add-on can do something else. Not to mention the Doctor, Cannibal, Ghostface, and Dredge buffs were so incredibly miniscule they don't even really matter.
This bug actuallyt looks rather nice
Wsg
Its probably because of the perk bug
theres a bug where a character just has no perks asside from either generic ones or all rank 1
Im telling them what to run
Wait he is?
Instead of whining
ok um
Yeah. He does the stegul scream now but with his new VA
so mina's mori is rlly bugged like its either bugged with trickster's most of the time or the surv's faces are deformed when its not
For what it is worth, them increasing the camera's battery was actually kind of huge for when you actually use it
Its possible now to just sit on a camera monitoring him for long periods of time
Issue is youre still becoming a person who is not doing a generator
I mean it doesn't really matter, all Springtrap players know to run Mindbreaker.
Blindness doesnt block camera aura
Really?
I was under the assumption that it does considering Mindbreaker is what I see every Springtrap run.
Yeah that too.
Mindbreaker prevents survivors from prerunning off of generators the moment they hear him exit a door
I know but I thought it blocked camera aura.
nope
Respectfully, wtf does anything you said has anything to do with the fact that Unknowns 2nd Weaken is shorter than 1st for no reason whatsoever?
Your suggestions on ani are bad. No ranged killer should be 4.6
Unknown is 4.6
As a Dredge main I see this ptb as a win (with the sole exception of survivors being able to see the killers power in the beginning)
Also the controller icons for playstaion controllers dont work in this ptb
Other than like Trickster
its only xbox icons for them now
Nah you're just dumb. No killer should be 4.4 m/s anymore except Blight. The game has become too fast paced and lots of 4.4 killers struggle.
This is incredibly stupid

Brainrot lmao
You mean the part where survivors can see the killers power, right?
It nerfs all map-control killers and stealth ones too
People can figure it its hag pretty quick my guy
Hell, I think even trapper would suffer from this
Um... the unopened traps littered around the map?
any possible way we can keep this as a chance position? i bet it looks so hilarious
If you get spotted, someone sees a trap you placed, or someone sets off a trap while you aren't running shackles.
Avoiding getting spotted while you set up is really important
Youre supposed to be able to by design
OoO procs after 30 sec, poised procs instantly w/o corrupt, running into you in the first 30
I like trapper
Its not going to be as impacting as you think it is
I'm lowk cooked
People rarely run poised, and OoO isn't as omnipresent as youre implying. OoO also requires being in the killer's TR. She has a 24 meter TR, and Hags often run Monitor to make it smaller (although I guess now less so since monitor got nerfed)
OoO does not require TR
You can also run secret project with corrupt for 30 sec of undetectable at the start of the game
Oh yeah I forgot
still though, its not THAT omnipresent.
Its very noticable and annoying when people run it and thankfully it isnt nearly as common as something like windows
least in my experience
The point is to shrink the gap between solo and SWF. SWFs are very aggressive about finding the killer quickly
Voice chat should be default in the game, same for killer actually that would be great
That would be a disaster given how whiny and toxic the DBD community is
Being in most of the VCs in this server is bad enough
It would have less of a reason to be whiny and toxic because of other things that come from it
PTB so buggy i got skins equipped from previous PTBS that i dont even own anymore
Yeah you can still equip them via presets.
Is PTB bugged? I have no perks. Just the ones from the killer/character equipped.
They seem to revert back to your default outfit when you load into a match
Ah darn
Yeah perk unlocks are weird in this ptb for some reason.
I hope they fix it :(
considering they didn't fix it when there were issues last PTB Im doubtful
There has been isssues like this for the past like 4 ptbs
I know
I just mean how are you supposed to test diminishing returns if you have no perks?
It only got particularly bad with the most recent one before this though
Legion is still killswitched in the PTB 

i know right? i wanted to test the vault speed build but i cant use any perks
That's the best part! You don't
Weirdly I do not own random killers either.
I think the worst started when they made every character p100 and it got even worse from there
i only own the basic survs and killers, bought some survs to see if i could get the perks or smt, it didnt work
New perks dont even show up in the bloodweb....
so...the last one...got it
Last one of allkill comeback
there arent any vault speed perks that stack
Does the PTB have the angel killer?
No lol that aint coming for a while
Dang ok
really ? i thought maybe bamboozle, superior anatomy and fire up
oh you mean for killer
I don't own any killers at all in the ptb, except Bubba which came with the dlc, I just used iri shards to get Dredge
seems S tier blights (lilith) are still S. but B blights are now C. Is that BHVR's intended direction? Does BHVR need low tier blights to be weaker to have bigger separation from the good blights?
Blight mains aren't on fraud watch are they?

You can play the next patch early & give feedback to the devs
A whole bunch of nothing buffs and some decent Blight nerfs. (Fast Track nerf too.)
ohh i see, ty
is what I would say if I could have found a match or killers being able to run perks at all
😔
Experimental mechanic where stacked buffs from perks and stuff is nerfed (particularly for survivor), fast track nerf, some extremely minor changes to a handful of killers, large Demogorgon buffs, more Wesker changes, supposedly come engine level changes, the ability to change the aura colors of things effected by perks and of killer power related thingsm and Stegul hath returned
The fact that you cant even find new perks in the bloodweb after a certain point if a killer doesnt have perks unlocked is actually insane
Im halfway and finally demogorgon buffs 🥹
They really need to fix this. Survivor player counts on the ptb were already not gonna be particularly high, but this is making it way worse.
they arent gonna get as much data from this as is either
Can they even fix it this PTB?
idfk
why did springtrap get nerfed 💔
Just make him 4.6 m/s with the axe already man.
fr fr
They increased the battery on the doors because they wanted to encourage the survivors to actually use them
I dont play Demo how big of a buff is this?
seems pretty solid
Its really solid. The undetectable upon exiting a portal is actually long enough by default to actually matter, much more control over shred, and faster shred.
Seeing the wesker changes theyve been adding since the 9.5.0 PTB gives me grey hairs and its js as bad rn
noone talking about how they nerfed matchbook
Anyone else experiencing this too?
yup
Are they going to fix it?
they didnt fix the other perk issue from the last PTB 
which one
Their wet paper code cant fix it
why is perk selection totally fucked in ptb
Ahh
i dont think im downloading this ptb guys...
What speed do survivors normally run in?
4m/s or 4 meters per second
Okay so Dredge now moves at that speed while charging his ability, sweet
dredge needs more love 💔
what do we think of springtraps changes?
Absolute ass
Nothing burger.
the buffs are nothing burgers, nerfs were completely unnecesary
Like all the other changes besides Demo's changes.
do demogorgon changes actually do anything for it
why did none of my bought characters transfer over
also once i swittch off ptb how do i get rid of this 47 gb
havent played yet but they probably help
what nerfs
The undetectable will be nice.
does tthe shred buff feel noticeable?
Even if it doesnt 'feel' better in gameplay it will definitely matter, kinda like resilience for survs
they decreased the camera battery consumption which is basically a nerf, they nerfed the add on that decreased axe retrieval from 20 to 10 percent
Just make Menu basekit like omg.
they buffed the security doors add on tho, but i dont use it so idk
please rework springtrap...
i mean the addon is basiclly embredded in him ill call it a buff tbf
The battery life increase made using the cameras to track springtrap way more effective. You can just sit on a door and monitor him for long periods of time. However this doesn't solve the issue of how most survivors would really rather be doing a generator than sitting on a camera.
yeah
god queues are ass
theyve been ass
whys the ptb 50 GBS
If the doors run out of power freddy lowk comes and does an insta mori
They made the act of using the cameras much more effective but didnt provide any new incentive to actually use the cameras
Good idea, youre hired 🥹
this ptb is so buggy, none of the perks are popping up
best aura reading addon in the game just rng i heard
something about engine level changes according to behavior
Nah once the power runs out Freddy just opens the exit gates for the survivors. BHVR would think that's way more fair.
but springtrap is really rushed abilitys are wacky
doesnt he have bk aura reading anyways
You're so right😖😖 and Chica comes and gives them some yummy pizza
im gonna play one or two games of buffed demo then switch off this ass 😭 🥀
make springtrap 4.8 m/s PLS
had the same thought twin
how do i get the 47 gigabytes back after switching back to production
pray you have uncapped
you dont
fr? 😭
just uninstall it ig
like uninstall dbd and reinstall?
the ptb(tbh dont listen to me i dont play dbd in pc)
ill open the directory and see if its seperated from base dbd
insane how ps4 servers shutting down right
what
they are?
i thought it was doing well
i heard so but i dont know if its just a april fools thing
jst looked it up it says they arent
mine shows not at once
weird
is anyone else having issues with the PTB crashing?
its buggy af so thats not surpriging
and its still 50 GBS isnane
Ive crashed both games Ive played
probably because of 2 things
- bhvr
- new engine
what buff was the best so far and are any of them moving any tier you reckon
oh finally got a game
The Demo buff was the only somewhat "major" one but I'd say he's still in the same tier as he was before. This patch didn't change any killer on a tierlist.
If youre refering to Bonnie's Guitar Strings, it isn't tied to RNG. Its let you view the progress of generators based on the intensity of their auras while inside of a door, with the downside being that the duration of the undetectable status after exiting a door is reduced by 100%
i.e. no stealth, in door lets yous ee gen progress
acces panel
no perks are unlocking even tho all the characters are level 3
Access Panel is ok I guess? The point of it is that it picks up on survivors who are trying to use the doors.
But survivors typically don't use the doors
arent all the dorrs near gens
its buffed to a 6 meter instinct as it was 4
Yes and no. Theres RNG tied to the door placement and they aren't always really that close to a generator.
thats why i said rng yeah
p sure the door spawn logic is the same as every other killer power interactible
demo buffs are massive
they spawn in the same places as RE chests, plague fountains, xeno buttholes
Funniest examples are off the top of my head are the door sometimes spawning in a room on the first floor of the main building in garden of joy instead of the second floor and a door spawning on the opposite side of wall from a generator in gideons
that makes sense
Why are all my Killers P100 but I have zero add-ons or perks for any of them???
egg nerf????? has bhvr lost it?
its not a nerf
they put most of it basekit and reduced the add on, they do this alot
