[h3]Archives and Events[/h3]

[p]The "Bone Chill" event returns Tuesday, December 9th at 11:00 AM Eastern.[/p]

[h3]Environment / Maps[/h3][p]Pallet Density Changes[/p]

[p]Evaluated and adjusted pallet loops on Autohaven Wreckers, Backwater Swamp, Crotus Prenn Asylum, The MacMillan Estate, Ormond, Red Forest, and Yamaoka Estate. These changes include:[/p]
- [p]Adjusted the length of loops that were too short and unsafe.[/p]
- [p]Prevented pallets from spawning against certain small objects, creating short and awkward loops.[/p]
- [p]Reviewed pallet randomization on certain tiles to provide more spawn variation.[/p]

[p]Dev note: We've done another pass on pallet tiles and loops in order to find a middle ground between the last two updates. We will be closely monitoring the impact of these changes as we collect data and continue to adjust to find a sweet spot that feels great for both roles!

A second Dead by Daylight Stranger Things chapter is on the way, seeing as you all loved the first one so much

Dead by Daylight has blessed fans with some pretty awesome crossovers over the years - in truth, it's one of the main reasons why it's still one of the best horror games around. The Walking Dead, Resident Evil, Castlevania - it's a long, impressive list. High up on most DBD fans' rankings of the best collabs to date would be its Stranger Things chapter, which debuted all the way back in 2019. Behaviour Interactive knows how much you loved it, so it's going in for a second helping. That's right, Dead by Daylight Stranger Things Chapter 2 has been revealed, and it's only a matter of weeks away.

You can now smooch your favorite Dead By Daylight killers for under a dollar, as dating sim spinoff hits its lowest price ever

If I had to describe my taste in women, I'd simply direct you to the old Johnny Bravo quote: "Mama warned me about women like you. I was hoping she was right." That, or Spike Spiegel's classic: "I love a woman who can kick my ass." I know what I am, which is why Hooked on You: A Dead by Daylight Dating Sim resonates with me on a spiritual level. The hilariously quirky DBD spinoff may be a major departure from its squeamish horror game sibling, but it's also some of the most fun I've had with the franchise in a hot minute. If that's not enough to make your head turn, I've got one more pickup line up my sleeve: it's currently 90% off.

9.3.0 | Mid-Chapter

[p] [/p][h2]Important[/h2]

[p]The Mindbreaker perk has been re-enabled.[/p]
[p]The Breakdown and Wicked perks have been disabled.[/p]

[p][/p][hr][/hr][p][/p][h2]Features[/h2][h3]Hook Improvements[/h3][p]Quality of Life[/p]

[p]The Resolve Bar is now visible to other Survivors while hooked.[/p]

[p]Dev note: To help bridge the information gap between players using voice chat and those who aren't, we've added the Resolve Bar to the HUD. This will help Survivors determine if the Killer is camping and plan their next move accordingly.[/p][p][/p][p]Balance[/p]

[p]The Anti-Facecamp meter now fills faster based on how long the Killer stays near the hook:[/p]
- [p]0-10 seconds: 1x speed[/p]
- [p]10-20 seconds: 2x speed[/p]
- [p]>20 seconds: 4x speed[/p]
- [p]Note: This multiplier only accumulates when the Killer is considered camping (the meter is gaining progress). The multiplier resets when the Survivor is unhooked.[/p]
[p]Decreased the base fill rate of the Anti-Facecamp meter by roughly 50% to compensate.[/p]
[p]Hooking a Survivor now applies a 7 second grace period to all hooked Survivors (was only the last hooked Survivor).[/p]

[p]Dev note: To make the Anti-Facecamp mechanic fairer to both sides, we've reduced the base fill rate and added the time the Killer remains near the hook as a modifier. This gives Killers who are not camping more freedom to pass by a hook (particularly in cramped spaces like hallways) without worrying about the meter filling and giving the Survivor a free escape. This also means that Survivors who are being camped for extended periods gain the ability to unhook themselves slightly earlier.[/p][p][/p][p]Unhook Changes[/p]

[p]Survivors gain 10% Haste and Endurance for 15 seconds after being unhooked (was 10).[/p]

[p][/p][h3]AFK Crows[/h3]

[p]Decreased the time for crows to appear to 80/100/120 seconds (was 120/140/190).[/p]

[p]Dev note: Following the release of the updated AFK crow system, we increased the time it took to gain crows. This was much too generous, allowing for Survivors to avoid crows too easily. We're dialing back the values a little bit to a middle ground between the original values and the live values.[/p][p][/p][hr][/hr][p][/p][h2]Content[/h2][h3]Killer Updates[/h3][p]The Shape[/p]

[p]Slaughtering Strike's camera controls are now identical to regular camera controls.[/p]

[p]The Skull Merchant[/p]

[p]Increased the Drone Rotation speed to 105 degrees/second (was 95 degrees/second).[/p]
[p]Increased the Hindered status effect from getting scanned to 10% (was 8%).[/p]
[p]Decreased the Deploy Drone cooldown to 7 seconds (was 10 seconds).[/p]
[p]Decreased the Undetectable duration after deploying a Drone to 6 seconds (was 8 seconds).[/p]
[p]Removed the fast vault immunity to Scan Lines.[/p]
[p]For every 2.5 seconds spent standing underneath a Drone, the Survivor gains 1 Lock On (was instant).[/p]
[p]Decreased Killer detection range for the Drone (now only rises when colliding directly with The Skull Merchant)[/p]

[p]Dev note: The Skull Merchant has dropped fairly significantly in terms of kill rate and lethality. These buffs aim to make her Drones a bigger threat and bring her up a little bit. Additionally, we've decreased the cooldown to deploying drones, and consequently decreased the duration of Undetectable to keep some downtime between her Undetectable status effect. When standing underneath a Drone, Survivors would get instant Lock On, which felt like a bug whenever it happened. The gradual increase of Lock On will feel more natural and provide feedback to the Survivor that something bad is happening to them. Lastly, we reduced the Drone's sensitivity to their mistress, to make sure they are always ready to scan Survivors during chases in tight spaces and don't ascend unintentionally.[/p][p][/p][h3]Killer Add-on Updates[/h3]

[p]Original Pain (The Cenobite):[/p]
- [p]When a Survivor breaks free from a Possessed Chain, reveal their aura for 8 seconds (rework).[/p]
[p]Soma Family Photo (The Singularity):[/p]
- [p]Slipstreaming a Survivor inflicts the Hindered status effect for 6 seconds (was 3 seconds).[/p]
- [p]Inflicts the Deep Wound status effect if the Survivor is injured (removed).[/p]

[p]Dev note: Both of these add-ons were notorious for their ability to disable the Endurance status effect Survivors get when they are unhooked. These changes aim to remove this ability to bypass the protection post-unhook.[/p][p][/p][h3]Survivor Perk Updates[/h3]

[p]Conviction:[/p]
- [p]Updated perk to require specifically healing another Survivor (to prevent infinite interaction with Plot Twist).[/p]
[p]Tenacity:[/p]
- [p]Re-added the ability to recover while crawling.[/p]
- [p]Increased Haste effect to 30/40/50% (was 15/20/25).[/p]

[p][/p][h3]Survivor Item Add-on Updates[/h3]

[p]Anti-Exhaustion Syringe (renamed Anti-Hemorrhagic Syringe):[/p]
- [p]Removed the heal over time effect.[/p]
- [p]Removes Exhaustion on use (rework).[/p]
- [p]Consumes the med-kit on Secondary Action use.[/p]
[p]Styptic Agent:[/p]
- [p]Removed the Endurance status effect.[/p]
- [p]No longer consumes the med-kit on Secondary Action use.[/p]
- [p]Increases the efficiency when healing yourself by 15% (rework).[/p]

[p][/p][h3]Killer Score Events[/h3]

[p]Chase Start[/p]
- [p]Increased Bloodpoint amount to 500 (was 400).[/p]
[p]Hooking Survivor[/p]
- [p]Increased Bloodpoint amount to 750 (was 500).[/p]
[p]Survivor First Hook[/p]
- [p]Increased Bloodpoint amount to 750 (was 200).[/p]
[p]Survivor Second Hook[/p]
- [p]Increased Bloodpoint amount to 250 (was 200).[/p]
[p]Survivor Sacrifice Success[/p]
- [p]Increased Bloodpoint amount to 500 (was 200).[/p]

[p]Dev note: With the above changes to hook improvements, we thought it was the right time to raise a few Score Events to encourage Killers to spread first hooks earlier in the match.[/p][p][/p][h3]Environment/Maps[/h3][p]Pallet Density Changes[/p]

[p]Reviewed all pallet tiles to evaluate and reduce the safety of pallet loops on MacMillan Estate, Asylum, The Red Forest, Yamaoka Estate, Haddonfield and Mount Ormond Resort.[/p]
[p]Adjusted the spawn logic of certain structures (i.e. the main building in Disturbed Ward; the piers in Backwater Swamp) to better randomize items and balance the distance between windows and pallets. This also impacts The Red Forest[/p]
[p]Adjusted the Crotus Prenn Asylum Realm, reducing the safety of the main building which could spawn near maze tiles and chain into other tiles.[/p]

[p]Dev note: After collecting feedback from the community on the recent pallet density update, we made the above changes to address some of the most notable friction points. Thank you so much for taking the time to share your thoughts on its initial iteration and do let us know what you think of these changes.[/p][p]The Underground Complex[/p]

[p]Adjusted the Autohaven Wreckers Realm to help mitigate the overall feeling of excessive darkness.[/p]

- [p]We've introduced a fog effect across the map.[/p]
- [p]We've reworked the overall lighting and adjusted the hue of the Realm to improve visual clarity.[/p]

Stats | Haunted by Daylight

[p]Welcome back from the Void Realm! Whether you chose to celebrate in style with a costume or tuned in for some good ol’ fashioned pumpkin stomping, that’s another Haunted by Daylight in the books![/p][p]Now that we’ve had a chance to take some readings of the Void, let’s see how your Halloween shenanigans went…[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]Speaking of gutting gourds (or smashing squashes), Survivors and Killers both woke up and chose violence this event with over 150 million pumpkins destroyed. The real question: who’s carving all those?[/p][p]The Void’s haunt population also owes Killers a big thanks for freeing them (depending how you look at it) in such high volumes, even if that meant turning around and flinging them at Survivors.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]On the Survivor side of things, it’s clear there was a preference for tricks over treats. Flush with Void Crystals, Survivors were more likely to use them as a distraction tactic than to employ their services to repair generators. Still, that’s a lot of skill checks that were sent into the Void to never be seen again.[/p][p][/p][p]While that’s all from us on Haunted by Daylight today, head over to the Dead by Daylight Stats Tracker for even more stats goodness, especially now that it tracks data from past (and future) Limited Time Events![/p][p]Until next time…[/p][p]The Dead by Daylight Team[/p]
