We have been made aware of two new exploits that could potentially be abused to ruin the enjoyment of others. While our team investigates and fixes these issues, we will be banning players who abuse the following (in accordance of our game rules, which can be found here: https://forum.deadbydaylight.com/en/discussion/19450/):
- 2+ killers in a match exploit: Abusing bugs to join a public match a second killer
- Legion mend time exploit: Abusing a bug with Filthy Blade and Nasty Blade add-ons to greatly extend mending time

If you witness a player abusing the Legion mend time exploit, please be sure to report them through the in-game report system. There is no need to report the 2+ killers in a match exploit. We have access to data that will allow us to find the players abusing the exploit.

Definitive solution to bridge the SWF-Killer-Solos gaps

edited February 26 in Balance Feedback
The long-standing problem of Dead by Daylight, which keeps causing fierce battles within the Community, can be summarized in the formula "a well-organized team ridicules a good killer, a good killer pulverizes four solitary and uncoordinated survivors".

The solution, in theory easy, is to raise the solos to the level of the SWF, then to strengthen the killer, so they can face, without being scared, the teams that act like a swarm, skilled in the loops, ready to blind and bodyblock to deny a hook, devastating totems in a matter of seconds and often inclined to gen rush.

MY PROPOSAL:
A) Survivors earn Kindred 3 as a passive skill, with a 16-meter killer's Aura reading range (this being the distance, decided by the developers, at which the emblem penalty for camping is triggered), OR Survivors earn Kindred 2 as a passive skill and the @Ihatelife's icon system (see https://forum.deadbydaylight.com/en/discussion/46961/change-for-the-solo-survivors-to-help-be-in-level-with-swf for further explanation);
B.) the killer gains NOED, limited to the Exposed status (no movement speed bonus), as a passive skill for 120 seconds after the last gen has been repaired, if there are 4 survivors still alive, or for 60 seconds, if there are 3 survivors left, AND the new totems' Aura colors (see the link written above);
C) Kindred and NOED perks are reworked as follows.

NEW KINDRED.
Unlocks potential in one's Aura-reading ability.
The Entity has given you the gift of telepathy, to communicate with your companions and increase the hopes for survival.
Start the trial with 3/4/5 Tokens.
Press the Active Ability button to consume a Token and leave a mark on the ground. The mark's Aura can be seen by all the Survivors for 20/25/30 seconds, but it's invisible to the Killer.

NEW NOED.
A Hex rooting its power on hope. You are animated by the power of your Hex Totem when the Survivors are on the verge of escaping.

Once the Exit Gates are powered, if there is a Dull Totem remaining on the Map, this Hex is applied to it.

While this Hex is active, during a Chase, the Entity blocks a window for 20 seconds after the first vault and prevents the pallets to be dropped. The windows are blocked only for the vaulting Survivor. The pallets drop is prevented for 2/3/4 Survivors.

The Hex effects persist as long as the related Hex Totem is standing.

This reform could both reduce the balance issue and guarantee a thrilling endgame for both parties. :)

    When does he gain NOED as a passive skill? After the gens are done?

    Yes, when the last gen is fixed. :)

    I'm sorry but I don't think buffing survivors this way closes the gap so much as widens it because it buffs SWFs even further. With this system, they no longer have to relay map information (Example - "The killer is over by me near (landmark)" vs "Killer's over here"(teabagging)). It's just a buff to another buff that has extremely limited counter play (nurse/hillbilly) in exchange for a perk that already has alot of counter play (cleanse a totem that's hidden on top of a hill in plain sight 90% of the time.

    The only way to truly close the gap is to add in an opt-in, opt-out in games communication system (not proximity) and balance killers around that.
  • EntitàEntità Member Posts: 1,130
    @RWoodrow No, read again the OP again, please: both the survivors and the killer get passive skills, that is automatic abilities, while Kindred and NOED are reworked.

    Did you know that long time ago NOED worked just like that? It was no hex. After the gens were done, the effect lasted for 2 minutes.

    (Of course, it was a perk and no passive skill and it worked independent from how many survs were alive.)

    I know, so it should be easier to implement. A passive mechanic, which frees a killer perk and helps them against strong teams (against solos it's improbable 4 people are still alive when gates are powered); they can also combine this mechanic with the new NOED. The same thing happens with survivors, who get a serious help if hooked and a new perk, very useful for solos.

    After rereading your proposed changes, my core issue was with giving survivors kindred 3 as a passive skill. 

    Giving a buff to all survivors, buffs SWFs as well as Solos. It doesn't bridge the gap in my opinion. 

    That said, after re-reading the NOED change and passive for the killers...if enough survivor mains will agree to that exchange...we could try it out for science...as long as when they ask for it to be reverted the kindred gets reverted as well...

    ...and they will ask for it to be reverted...

    (Evil laugh)

    In all seriousness, your heart is in the right place. You're not giving buffs to just one side and not completely ignoring balance. I just don't think this is the way to go.

    16 meters are too much

    16 meters are too much

    The developers decided to punish the killer camping within 16 meters from the hook with an emblem points loss: I simply apply this criterion to the passive Kindred for survivors.

    Aside the range, do you agree with my proposal? If not, why? And how would you amend it? :)

    Killers need a buff against well organized teams, who mock the killer all the trial with eternal loops and flashlights during a reckless gen rush: the Exposed status triggers only with 4 or 3 survivors still alive in the end, and can be avoided by hiding until the timer ends, while the new NOED can be prevented by cleansing all the totems, like today.

    Solos also need a strong buff against the killer, because the lack of voice chat makes their coordination very poor.

    In other words, well organized teams are the top tier: killers and solo survivors need to be buffed to that level.

    This reform is very urgent.

    Playing as a solo, with other solos, it means to waste your own time: people running into random places, gens almost done forgotten by other survivors, deaths on the first hook or three people running to the hook, a mess from the beginning to the very end. Simply awful: you lose any form of fun and get angry.

    Playing as a killer against a full team is no less unnerving: infinite loops and tbagging, an army of flashlights which appear from nowhere when you down somebody, hexes unplayable, instaheals and Adrenaline and DS everywhere... a nightmare, without Freddy.

    Please, @not_Queen @Patricia, restore the balance among Solos, Killers and SWF: all players deserve to have a fair game. :(
  • ChesterTheMolesterChesterTheMolester Member Posts: 2,616
    I'd say that once dedicated servers are released, the game will differentiate between Solos and SWFs, solos will get passive buffs like Kindred and SWFs will get nothing to bridge the gap, then Killers can get universal buffs.

    SWF means voice chat: if they get Kindred, they get nothing. Kindred as a passive skill helps Solos against the Killer. The Exposed status as a passive skill in the endgame with 4 or 3 survivors still alive for 120/60 seconds helps the Killer against SWF (it's almost impossible 3 or 4 solos are alive when the last gen pops). There is no need to wait several months. :(

    The biggest problem of playing solo is that you get matched with compete plebs, but that's the fault of the ranking system.

    Playing with a competent team of solos can be really fun,but sadly it practically doesn't happen anymore (I miss the old days)

    What insults are you talking about? Bad words are quite different from having a long conversation with unknown people about game coordination. I know many 12/13/14yo players: you are confusing rules and reality. The PEGI classification is not a law prohibition: a lot of under age people use that game, which is far less scary than other horror games. Moreover, to know a good spoken English it's not a game requirement: that's a game, not a school lesson to learn foreign languages.

    Could you kindly read and comment the OP? Do you agree? Don't you agree? How would you amend it?

    The death threats I receive are usually in english. Maybe three times a year I get this russian that spams some stuff, but thats really an exception.

  • EntitàEntità Member Posts: 1,130
    Killer mains, survivor mains, both sides players... don't you feel the extreme urgency of this reform to give solos back a chance against the killer and to help killers against well organized teams? Haven't you noticed a majority of solos trials is a waste of time? Haven't you noticed some friends have the power to mock and humiliate the killer? How is it possible the Decisive Strike reform causes a tsunami in the community, while this bleeding issue is ignored? People of the Fog, a game should be funny for both roles under any circumstances: now, instead, good SWF are gods and solos are meat to slaughter, and killers take revenge against solos for the toxic trials experienced towards powerful SWF, which makes the imbalance even worse! :(
  • EntitàEntità Member Posts: 1,130

    @not_Queen @Patricia Playing solo, it is literally impossible to get a pip at high ranks: only well-organized teams have an opportunity, remote but real. The new ranking system requires more than ever a rapid overcoming of the gap between Solos and SWF.

    The long-standing problem of Dead by Daylight, which keeps causing fierce battles within the Community, can be summarized in the formula "a well-organized team ridicules a good killer, a good killer pulverizes four solitary and uncoordinated survivors".

    "so they can face, without being scared, the teams that act like a swarm, skilled in the loops, ready to blind and bodyblock to deny a hook, devastating totems in a matter of seconds and often inclined to gen rush."


    Sounds like your problem isn't the communication, it's 4 good survivors playing together. In solo queue, there's always a few bad teammates that give the killer the win which isn't really fun for really good survivors that are dragged downed because of their team.


    Reminds me when Jendenise and her friends played with no mics and the volume turned all the way to silent, destroyed the killer, and the killer got mad about SWF. it's like - dude, they were literally playing the game on silent, you can't really complain about that lol. One of the games was against nurse, too. https://youtu.be/BS0fdLAqps4
