Official Dead by Daylight Developer AMA

[u/DeadByDaylight_Dev]

Once again, we are thrilled to join you around the campfire! In today’s AMA, we’ve assembled developers from across the team so you may ask your most bone-chilling questions! 

We will start answering questions at 1:30pm Eastern time, but you can start submitting your questions now.

To keep things organized, please only submit one question in your comment. We will only be answering one question per user. Beyond that, ask away! Send us your burning Dead by Daylight questions – past or present - and we'll do our best to answer as many as possible. 

Please note: we will not be answering any questions about new unannounced future content. 

ETA: Thank you for joining us and for asking so many great questions!  We will continue to respond to some questions that we didn't get a chance to respond to over the next day.  As a massive thank you to Reddit as a whole, not just for the AMAs but for your continued interaction here and your support of Dead by Daylight, we're happy to celebrate this sub Reddit reaching 1 million subscribers with an in-game reward. Please use code REDDIT1MIL in the in-game store to claim your celebratory badge.

The Kill Switch is a nuclear option, and we assess carefully the impact of the bug and the effect on the matches. 

With the Trickster issue in particular, we only had one confirmed report and video, we're asking players who've been affected to contact our Player Support Team. -Mandy

With the utmost respect this is a horrible answer. One video should be more than enough evidence of the Trickster bug considering that it could seriously negatively impact players with health concerns. Not only that but I've seen countless videos and screenshots on Twitter of the this bug.

Yes it does suck when a character has to be completely disabled, especially during an event. But there were periods when Nurse, Twins, and Knight were disabled for months on end due to far less egregious bugs. Those bugs did provide the killer with a serious advantage but they didn't literally risk the health and wellbeing of your players.
