What To Expect For The 8.5.0 Update! | PTB Edition

[@DStrike]

Okay, I'm going to finally take that January Break. See you all in Feb when the new RE Collection releases & "The Ghoul" Killer releases.

[@deadpoolwrestler7179]

Take care, DStrike.❤❤❤

[@ilimuninati4929]

Sorry, when who releases?

[@bahlahkayy]

removing all the progress bars is silly, some of them i get but slingers reload is useful, clairvoyance is useful, etc

[@will8516]

And it’s so ironic cuz they were like let’s “change deep wound” so it’s more obvious and now they change this like wtf

[@luuuuuuck]

it sounds like they’re removing this so they can nerf/ increase the time without notice

[@Ineedabigboi1771]

​@@luuuuuuck Yeah they can't do such thing

[@cassidy8307]

Clairvoyance was useful, the rest you can tell by intuition/experience

[@TristanLaurens]

You guys are unreal down here. Those animations can't be interrupted. What the fuck do you need a progression bar for, when you hook or reload?! In the case of clairvoyance, I can concede. And no, they won't shadownerf stuff that has a progression bar. Do you really think a gray bar and your bare eyes are enough to see if there's a difference?

[@azimi8712]

they really hate giving people easier bloodpoints, dont they

[@Zen_edits257]

[@2bstiff584]

where I am at killer almost never get the BP bonus maybe 1 hour a day if I am lucky so I got to work and grind a lot more then b4 the bonus BP system I am fed up

[@MFMOLDYBREAD]

Yup and I can only imagine their next one will be offering with blood point bonus

[@Philscooper]

I like how some of these features are accidental. Giving Freddy killer instinct on nearby survivors after teleporting but actually not? Classic.

[@NotRealAkira]

They probably removed it for a cleaner look, also because they are mostly unnecessary

Use that muscle memory then, do nurse mains complain that their blinks dont have a "charged up length" bar? No they dont, they just use muscle memory. Ure just used to a crutch and u're salty it's being taken away from u. U can fake just fine without a bar, u just gotta use muscle memory to not accidentally manifest, u'll get used to it

[@deathknight1239]

​@kerkertrandov459 you say that as if sadako is anywhere near nurses level, nurse doesn't need a bar because the blink charge time is pretty quick and she's a busted character that doesn't need it. Sadako is a bottom 3 killer with a relatively long time required to charge their power so having a transition bar is very much needed. Nice rage bait though you survivor bot

[@pngamer175]

Why are they so obsessed with removing bp bonuses from perks

[@Majin_151]

Because they're obsessed with making it a grind for new players who don't have bp offerings and people who grinds for prestige 100 more annoying for some baffling reason

[@cake94309]

​@@Majin_151 no matter what its still a grind for new players, we've all been there. This game has grind elements....

[@kerkertrandov459]

U guys are overreacting. I have prestige 1 on every single killer and ive played the game for like 700 hrs, and i already have access to every single perk on every single killer that i could possibly want (i bought all dlcs cuz im rich). Killer bp bonus means u get 50k+ bp every single game, more if u bring bp offerings. Prob 60k+ avg. On survivors it's even easier, there's only like 10-15 good survivor perks in the game so u don't need to level like 80% of the survivors. Compared to games like league with 170 champs which take absolutely forever to unlock, this game is not grindy at all.

[@DoglinsShadow]

@@kerkertrandov459 “trust me bro this game isn’t a grind, it only takes 700 hours.” Dude…

[@Majin_151]

@kerkertrandov459 Way to completely ignore what i said about new players in an attempt to brag about something that people who aren't new won't give a shit about. Oh gee, you got prestige 1 with everyone. Congrats, join the club, buckaroo. You clearly missed why grinders hate the change as well since you clearly missed the fact that the offerings stacked on top of the perks bp bonuses, which leads to fewer matches to hit bp cap and prestige a character which in turn means less offerings used to prestige 100 a character or prestiging them three times to save time getting the teachable perks to level 3 The bp bonus being removed from perks does nothing but harm new players and annoys people who want to save a bit of time grinding prestiges heck a lot of said that removing the bp bonus from bbq and chili would do a lot more harm than good and would you look at that the camping got to the point where they had to add a meter because new killer players didn't have a reason to leave the hook outside of winning the trial which fun fact new killer players don't care about winning trials only that they get two or more kills and the bp from said trial

[@bigpig88]

i dont understand why they removed the progress bars to the killers powers and hooking, no one had a problem with this

[@kingkurasaki4095]

Being able to tp to survivors waking each other up is kind of stupid tbh. The healing is totally fine, but I figured it would force survivors to wake up each other up before healing each other as a passive slow down for healing. But punishing survivors for trying to wake up is kinda... meh. The alarm clock change is great though, definitely makes that issue a bit better but still urks me a bit

[@dineez627]

Freddy do be strong now. His dream pallets will be most effective on maps with tons of extra dream pallet spots and seconds story maps for multi level dream pallet ruptures. Definitely can longer ignore being in dream world anymore.

[@nayd5043]

Waking each other up was already so niche lmao, why

[@that80ssongyoulove84]

If Freddy were a school kid he would get bullied and picked last for kickball. Let him have this for a minute, he’s been bottom of the barrel for so long.

[@firestar1230]

ALMOST certain teleporting to survivors trying to wake each other is a bug. I think in their coding, actions like that default to "healing" categorically, like how snapping out of it on doctor used to be considered one. I think they just overlooked it this time.

[@Clown_the_Clown]

​@@dineez627 Dream pallets are garbage due to them glowing red and stunning Freddy.

[@BOTB_RBLX]

I'm pretty sure the bot lobbies were stated to be for events primarily.

[@BINiPad1999]

If I get this correctly, a gate open time is 20s, 8.4.0 Wake Up have 5s less so 8.5.0 should have 10s less, this is more like 40%, not 50%

[@slashlightvine1139]

Door opening have charges like 1charge per second. So 25% don't decrease whole time of opening, but increase the speed itself. (Also i didn't understand. 19s of opening is mistake or not?) For example 25% - 1,25 charge per second. The door have 19 (20) charges. 25% is 15,2s (16s) 50% is 12,7s (13,3s)

[@BINiPad1999]

@slashlightvine1139 i just googled how dbd percentage works, it's the total of the time multiply the combined of 1+ buff percentage Total time of gate/(1+percentage buff) so it will be 20/(1+0.5)=13.3333 I never thought dbd work like this so i just assume they works like how percentage of second works so when i see a gate takes 13s looks weird

Level 15 isn't even hard to get to lol. Better yet, new players just need to learn the game and get use to it instead of expecting everything to be made easier for them. You guys wouldn't handle dbd if it was old dbd 😂. No you shouldn't have these changes because once you get better, you'll get more BP and then getting to level 15 will be a breeze.. the game has grind elements to it. You just need to get use to it

[@Ironfontz]

@cake94309 Yeah, 15 level is not hard to reach, But all locked-skill slot makes new players hard to test characters. New players should invest almost 100,000 bp for each one of characters just to sip it. I don't want see that new players think this game is really hard to play with no perk. it's like Playing "Counter strike" buying no guns. it could be part of game, yes. But We should lock it as a part of system? I don't think so
