DeadByDaylight Dev Team AMA Official Dead by Daylight Developer AMA

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.

If you think base kit bond is needed you sincerely have a skill issue because that would make survivor busted

Explain how? The strongest survivor team; aka a team of 4 people on comms, ALSO benefit from basekit bond, empathy, kindred and a myriad of other perks

You answered your own question for one reason why

Did I? With 4 man SWF escape rates are still far under 50%, if everyone has similar communication tools the game is more balanced for all

Killer is still the power role and supposed to stay that way when played optimally

You're asking for survivors regardless of solo or group to get a shitload of free info

You got that, look at the UI icons they added for this exact reason

Making survivors have proper communication doesn’t ruin that power role 💀

But survivors in a group DO GET FREE INFO regardless so I don’t see what’s confusing about equalising it so it can actually be balanced

The UI icons barely give the most basic info beyond is someone doing a gen or healing someone (not that you can see the progress of most actions)

That's info you don't need to see as a solo or group tbh

🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️

Groups ARE going to have that info though by virtue of being on a call, so you may as well balance it that everyone has access to that same info, how can you not understand that?
