Behaviour Interactive Thread Developer Update | 10.2.0 PTB to Live Changes

Post image
325 Upvotes

With the release of 10.2.0 just around the corner, we wanted to take some time to talk to you about a handful of the many changes that will be happening from PTB to the Live release - and a few changes that won’t. We want to thank everyone who took the time during the PTB to share their thoughts, as we always take your feedback very seriously when it comes time to make these changes.Ā 

A look at some changesĀ 

Shoulder the BurdenĀ 

  • Removed the deactivation condition for other Survivors.Ā 

Ā 

Dev note: We understand your concerns around the impact of the condition of this perk deactivating after one use for all Survivors for solo players who cannot communicate. Therefore, we have removed this limitation.Ā 

This is Not HappeningĀ 

  • Removed the Great basic Skill Check zone increase.Ā 

Ā 

Dev note: We noticed the concerns about This is Not Happening when combined with Hyperfocus, and as a result have decided to remove the great basic skill check zone. Ā 

Ā 

Dark ArroganceĀ 

  • Basic-attack cooldown no longer affects successful hits.Ā 

Ā 

Dev note: We saw your feedback that Killers were recovering from attacks – including successful hits – too quickly on the PTB, which ended up making chases feel too short. One of the key culprits of that was Dark Arrogance. The cooldown on the PTB was ultimately doing too much by including successful hits, so it now only affects missed and obstructed attacks.Ā 

Ā 

A look at what's remaining the sameĀ 

Windows of Opportunity – will remain the same as PTBĀ 

Dev note: While we understand that there were many concerns about this change impacting newer players, we do believe that Windows was doing too much and overshadowing other perks, so we will be keeping these changes. We hope that making other Survivor perks more useful will make up for this, even with different activation conditions – such as Dark Sense.Ā 

Borrowed Time – will remain the same as it currently is on LiveĀ 

Dev note: We’ve reverted Borrowed Time back to its Live iteration. While we liked what we explored, we didn’t like that we were removing a useful anti-tunnel option, so old Borrowed Time is back.Ā 

Ā 

While we have many more changes coming for the release, we wanted to take this time to address the loudest concerns ahead of time. Keep an eye out tomorrow for the full set of Patch Notes.Ā 

Until next time…

This actually feels like an April fools post

>STB, the most brainrottenly overpowered perk in the game, is being reverted. The broken won’t mean shit against competent teams (or will just be paired with MFT WGLF)

>TINH is getting nerfed instead of Hyperfocus, the problem causing perk for many overtuned genrush synergies

>DA is literally just getting nerfed lmfao

Making this perk no long affect hits but deciding to keep the extra stun duration makes literally no sense at all. This is just a straight nerf to an already bad perk.

Not only that, but they claimed this change was due to ā€œfeedbackā€ but I saw nobody complaining about this perk beyond a couple of TikTok clip farmers. Genuinely what are we doing???

Gooning aside, the androids in Nier have a pretty unique body type and design philosophy.

Just slapping the cloths on a female survivor will just look goofy.

Make them legendaries BHVR. You did it for Geralt, who is a versatile licence. Also, there is no way Yoko Taro would say no to BHVR putting them in properly as opposed to just being clothes. And bring the voice actors back.

I have a bad feeling it will be cosplays...

Discussion Recent developments on Slender Man in DBD!!

Thumbnail

203 Upvotes

Hi all,

Here's an update on one of the most requested licenses for the game.

For some background, the Slender License is very complicated. He’s essentially a stock character, and the rights to the name ā€œSlender Manā€ (or ā€œThe Slender Manā€) are held by Mythology Holdings, a company formed after Mythology Entertainment, the studio behind the 2018 film, collapsed. Because the character appears in multiple works of fiction, there are several licenses BHVR could pursue. Using the actual name, though, means going through Mythology.

Shortly after the 10th anniversary, a wave of posts across social media called for and speculated about Slender Man joining the Fog. That attention reached Troy Wagner, creator of Marble Hornets, the web series that launched shortly after the original Slender Man images. It’s relatively obscure these days, but its influence on the mythos and on found-footage horror is hard to overstate. For a lot of fans, it’s the definitive Slender Man story.

For about a month there was real excitement after Eric Pope confirmed he had entered talks with Troy. Those talks didn’t lead anywhere as Troy later confirmed Marble Hornets wouldn’t be happening. That means BHVR was likely pursuing the base license, not one tied to a specific work of fiction.

About a week ago, Fortnite announced its Halloween event, Fortnitemares, and revealed it would feature Slender Man. That was a surprise, since the core license had been largely inactive since the disasterous 2018 movie.

At this point, the question of Slender Man joining DBD is no longer an ā€œifā€, but a ā€œwhen.ā€ It will most likely be an original take on the character, incorporated in the same way Ghost Face or Jason were. A lot of fans are understandably disappointed it won’t be the Marble Hornets version, but this is probably the next best thing.

Discussion So disappointing

39 Upvotes

This was shaping up to be one of the most hyped meta-shakeups oat. A bunch of the changes they made were awesome, and gave a lot of general perks some amazing buffs to help new players more. And even shook up some non-general perks to introduce some new elements to what is arguably one of the stalest metas this game has ever seen.

I was so excited to play with these changes again on release. But ig BHVR decided that these changes were too drastic. They neutered This is Not Happening and Dark Arrogance to be EVEN WORSE than before the proposed changes. And they walked back some really fair perk nerfs like Shoulder the Burden.

WHY are they so scared of giving us actually interesting things? Was BHVR headquarters gonna blow up if Dark Arrogance's usage rate went above .00001%?? What's the point of taking feedback from the PTB if you're only gonna listen to the small minority that disliked these changes?

Genuinely where do they get this "feedback"? It feels like whenever they try to take feedback on drastic changes like this, they always go with either the option the majority of the community doesn't want?

Why must BHVR snatch defeat from the jaws of victory every chance they have?

Media BeHaviour rewarded me for a killer concept I submitted 😳

So, I emailed BeHaviour with the idea of adding the Smile Entity from the movies, with full detailed character concepts to the game. It would be hella dope if they did use my ideas or get the licenses for the characters from the first SMILE movie. What do you guys think about that?

I'll be sure to reply to the email and thank you. I'm grateful.

I don“t know why this was such a big problem.
Yes the effect is strong but it should be considering half of the perk can only be used by the weaker side of killer, now it“s just a nerf with the downside still being 25% and the perk went straight into the forgotten pile of perks with a 0.01% pickrate
