They have the horror multiplayer genre by the balls and yet they can't fucking add Jason Voorhees?

even the actual friday the thirteenth game had trouble adding jason
The vidya rights for Jason were sold to the fellas that made this game.
They may add him in the future but certainly not next year.
I assume their license run out in 2022, so if DBD is still alive by that time, you may see him hook some Megs.
this game has no right being as fun as it is
almost right.
The entire F13 franchise is in a lawsuit hell right now between two people so everything F13 related is affected and also more or less off limits. This is why the F13 game can't make updates anymore and why DBD has Freddy but not Jason despite them both falling under the same parent company.
This lawsuit has been going on for years and until it's settled we are not going to get any new F13 content in any shape or form.
It's not fun, you're just Stockholm Syndromed. Take it from someone who played for 1500 hours and finally escaped. The developers are also incompetent and have just gotten lucky.
It has simple concept and premise, which makes it easy to start playing at any time.
It's why games like Fortnite and Minecraft got popular in the first place.
I like this game but it takes way too long to find a match.
>horror
Literally nothing scares in this game except scratched mirror Myers, silent bell Wraith or Ghostface unexpected grab and even then it's more of an unexpected moment rather than they being scary
Post killers you would like to see added to dead by daylight
Dwight Must Die Difficulty: They have to have unique mechanics and also be balanced
Jason and Myers have been the same boring character concept for literal decades. Half of these characters are the same concept. Why would anyone be excited for Jason even if he arrived? Could you even differentiate between his appearance and the Trapper's in the dark during actual gameplay?
This
There are thousands of fps games out there that have like 8 assault rifles in them but most fell the same
So you agree that adding the same thing repeatedly to a game is nothing of interest.
No, some people prefer jason's appearance over trapper of myers just like some people prefer seeing an ak on their screen instead of a m16. Giving people options isn't bad.
Killer: Jacket (The Animal)
Survivor: Biker
Map: Phone Hom Building, Miami 1989
His power would be involve chaining survivors together, similar to the combo system from Hotline Miami. He starts with a slower walk and attack speed that gradually increases with every hit. This would also increase the size of his terror radius. Not getting any hits for a prolonged period of time would cause his attack and walking speed to gradually decrease. Possibly having an alt attack to throw his weapon but I’m not sure how the balancing would work on that.
>devs are incompetent and have just gotten lucky
fully agreed sadly
it's dying and like for real this time
player numbers have dropped by 20k the past 2 months despite an event going on
And nothing of value was lost.
Well it kind of has a monopoly since their aren’t any other games like it just now. It captures a niche
>silent bell Wraith
I've fucked you before I can see. I'm not gentle.
Nigha I got a whole DLC idea
Mysterious Mysteries
Killer: Miner 49er
Survivor: Velma and Shaggy
Map: Haunted Theme park
Several times competition had potential to overthrow it and inevitably shot themselves in the foot. Last Year is probably the biggest example of this because the game is really good but the discord temp exclusivity and the lack of buzz around the steam release utterly killed it.
But honestly once you deal with the game's bullshit enough, the developers' bullshit enough, and the community's bullshit enough you get tired of the genre as a whole
There are dozens of things that play almost identically to DBD, but with less variety in Killers. Asymmetrical Horror is the new COD clone.
The current event is BS.
2500+ hours here, just recently escaped/quit. It's not worth your time, if you ever think it's fun and worth your money, it's not. It's a game of cat and mouse that feels more like Tom and Jerry with how gimped they make killers constantly feel compared to survivors. The gameplay is also very redundant and boring as shit after the first couple of hours. It visually also looks ugly as sin due to terrible 3d modellers. Just don't spend money on it.
somehow the new graphics look worse and even messier and more mismatched than the old, too
you got outrageously cartoonish looking generators that stand out next to everything else even with the maps they've redone
>The gameplay is also very redundant and boring as shit after the first couple of hours.
>2500+ hours here
lol i don't even know what to say other than just lol
The DBD community is the biggest example of Stockholm syndrome. The fact there are a good chunk of the fanbase who will shit on any idea for a killer that isnt the single idea they have, or god forbid you question the devs.
Go say any popular character in horror and you will see a melt down if it isnt there lost of FNAF or a werewolf. I saw someone get ridiculed for suggesting the Red Devil or the Green Meanie from Scream Queens
Jason a fag, give me jason mama
stockholm syndrome and the fact that they have a monopoly on the genre because all other ones are dead or worse
Honestly I could accept the visuals if it were some unique stylistic take but no it's just ugly trying to be realistic. Oh yeah the 2d art team is even more fucking retardedly bad.
I get addicted to terrible games easily if I sink money into them.
there's also the problem of the survivor-only playerbase being so babied and pandered to that when the devs do rarely try to actually balance the game in a way that's fair they get bitched at and eventually gets reverted back to some unfair level.
>Halloween event this year is complete shit with no free skins
DBD gets worse every year
I have survivor legacies so I feel since I have oldfag status in the game I can't quit.
you get a free skin just by logging in
are you stupid
i thought the lawsuit had ended
writer has the rights to the jason voorhees name, camp crystal lake etc
studio has the rights for the hockey mask look
I'd rather have both of them as killers and a bald russian as a survivor
Not this year, you have to buy them all.
