scott gave me trust issues with good dbd patches

Ever since Scott did his fake patch notes, the devs have been publishing more and more good patch notes. COINCIDENCE? probably.

I feel like they fixed everything that they needed to on Wesker. Which is extremely strange that they basically listened to all feedback. My biggest complaint was not damaging on windows and pallets if survivor was vaulting, him bumping into everything and then the hitbox for survivors. And they fixed all of it and more.

It can go without saying, I think they’re doing a pretty good job so far.

I'm actually excited for wesker now its clear what in is power is intended and what is not, he seems really powerful and fun I cant wait

"I can't think of a reason for anyone to complain about lower bloodweb costs" Oh I GUARANTEE someone's gonna find something, knowing this community.

I was thinking, as I read this update, that maybe we entered an alternate dimension where BHVR are good devs that listen to feedback and introduce good changes and GGG aren't. It's been such a strange past few days. I really like every change in this update which I don't think has ever happened in a dbd update. I hope they keep up with this direction and become more receptive to constructive feedback and make more good changes.

Holy shit, BHVR are unironically good devs currently. Addressing issues the smart way, listening to feedback, and being transparent?! Hope this "Good BHVR" status effect lingers much longer, hope they get great money from it.

3:50 “It’s going from a potential free survivor escape to a potential free killer escape” Damn we finally found the third way to escape a trail

The wording with the Mettle change says they're "reverting" the change, so I'm pretty sure it'll still take three hits.

Scott, since it says the recent mom changes are reverted, I think this means it's back to 3 hits

Behavior is learning, slowly- but they’re learning. Before they only had to grow their player base but now they’re trying to keep it and it’s good to see that progress

I think mettle of man is going back to 3 hits. I think thats what they meant by reverting the changes. I wish they went more in depth with the changes they're talking about for it.

I think you forgot the mention that survivors can get hit behind windows when Wesker vaults as well now to prevent instantly vaulting back at around the 8 minute timestamp.

THANK YOU for liking the docs in the video description. So many people make a video on this but never link the docs.

I love so many of these changes, especially for Wesker and for the BP grind, but it seems that they still don’t understand anything about camping.

I’m glad that BHVR is really taking action lately and making genuine improvements on the game.

9:55 not per hook stage I think, "per hook instance" implies you can't use it more than once on the same person without saving them

A lot of good changes except they keep nerfing perks instead of just nerfing nurse

Seems like BHVR have really upped their gane recently, and it’s been quite a nice thing to see honestly. The only thing that they haven’t took action for yet is some balance overall change/rework to Nurse. Other than that? More counters to tunnelling and camping is brilliant! Let alone the bloodweb change as well.

Wesker's changes are all quality of life updates except the damage on pallet vault, which was thankfully added to prevent his power to vault pallets from being irrelevant in chase. He could do everything else but it was bugged as hell on the ptb, such as the damage on survivor vaulting a window. It was bugged and would only hurt them at the very beginning or the very end of the animation so you needed to be frame perfect to get the injure, but this was always ment to be this way. What i'm very thankful for is the update on his Bound's collision which was a god damn nightmare to deal with. Dashing into the survivor to get held back by the very edge of a wall that you can't even see in your FoV is absolutely trash.

I think Reassurance should give all the survivors aura reading on each other so that they know the perk has activated and also can more easily coordinate if the killer is camping.

3:50 "free killer escape" I know he misspoke but now I can't stop thinking of a killer opening the doors when they're powered and then just leaving giving them a win somehow

Im convinced Scott secretly works on the balance team with his secret alter ego Jott Scund

I just got done rewatching when you got spun by Quentin on the stairs video. Thank you so much for letting me know that gem exists with that one spinning the killer video.

The DBD devs must've gotten Freaky Fridayed with the PoE devs It's the only explanation I can think of

The biggest issue with the awakened awareness change revolving around nurse is now the only difference is nurse wins the game slightly slower instead of immediately. No reason for BHVR to remove the lingering aura reading tbh

I love that I’ve been watching Scott long enough to understand the inside joke about that one video he made a super long time ago where he basically just said DBD devs should be like path of exile devs and just change shit all the time. Lmao

Not a fan of the reassurance nerf, it was fine the way it is. They should have just added a feature where the hooked survivor can cancel it if they wish to

The problem I have with the bloodweb is that it takes ages to spend all my blood points I cba to sit there for 10mins spending 2m bp

The thing that makes me not so worried about the hyperfocus builds is that that shit is boring. Survivors I play with already dont do gens, and i dont feel like that option will change their minds. The other thing about it is that if you have 2-3 perks dedicated towards that build, thats less perks you have available for other situations; thats less off the records, less exhaustion perks, less boons, less diversion perks. The only thing is in swf scenearios, but tbh most things are strong in swf scenearios, so trying to nerf things for swf will just make everything worse on its own.

No collision during unhook endurance genuinely would be the best thing for BHVR to do next, since it stops survivors from aggressively bodyblocking with endurance off of hook, and it ALSO prevents killer from bodyblocking the survivor until the endurance runs out. If the killer REALLY wants the survivor dead, they can still wait and follow and hold off on hitting, but at that point no change BHVR could make would deter those kind of killers. They'd still tunnel off hook if it meant a machine would break their femur every time they did.

I completely disagree on the Reassurance nerf. Sure people could be held hostage on a hook but there are way better ways to address that without making this perk way worse in soloQ were you can't really coordinate using it 3 times to counter facecamping. They could've made it so after the reassurance effect is gone it can't be applied for 10 seconds. The perk cooldown basically also applies to the effect as well. Or they could've changed it so you can still try to unhook yourself to get out of stage 1 and that in stage 2 you get skillchecks still that you can miss. There are so many ways to change this perk that wouldn't make it strictly worse for soloQ. This change will make this perk good in swf much like kinship but for soloQ it will be way worse than before.

good morning scott. We are blessed with a cat the entire video!

It IS a little messed up that BHVR have made it clear that they know Nurse is a problem but they'd rather nerf other Killers' perks than fix her. Other than that though it's a VERY good update. (Just waiting on a Pyramid Head add on rework though...)

I think a decent change to awakened awareness would be to keep it as it was on ptb, but change nurse to make an exposed survivor only go down to a basic m1, and not a blink. Things like Sloppy Butcher should also only apply to that. It would make nurse a lot less oppressive with these kind of perks, which needs to happen

I think Hyperfocus is sadly in a bad spot for itself, if they nerf it pretty sure no one will run it, and it will be like a Fast Track 2.0, if they keep it as it is, it's broken, I sadly can't see this perk either being too bad or too good.

All of the changes are great. I wish this activeness from the devs happened years ago when I was far more into the game. In particular, the Wesker changes are what I am personally most happy with. He won't be getting screwed by a lot of stupid things, will feel better to play, and be overall stronger.

Since the around the anniversary patch, they’ve been doing a great job: the stuff that people complained about got a rework, like Haddonfield and RPD, overused perks got nerfed, underused perks got buffed, two solid, interesting killers got added, only minor missteps like the Garden of Joy, or potentially Hyperfocus. It’s so nice to see considering how much people have hated past changes or additions.

They should just make so that the nurse hits in his power count as special attacks not special to prevent this situations because it makes less variety :(

as i do like the new blood web changes, i feel like we're gonna see a lot more ultra rare addons on killers, like pinkie finger and mother-daughter ring etc which are extremely boring to go against.

really good update… im looking forward to the mid chapter if there along these lines of buffs and nerfs

Hay scott, is there a way you can look it to this. I have noticed that they secretly updated/changed the way that the bloodweb generates. It used to be a mess with connection's like a spiderweb. Now it is more a small circle with tentacles with sometimes a extra connection after the second circle and at level 5 a connection after the third circle. A view friends of mine noticed it as well.

Letting the actual playerbase test Hyperfocus instead of nerfing it based on what some players THINK is going to happen is the correct move and I'll happily die on that hill, even if it turns out to be op because then it can just be nerfed based on actual data.

Genuinely good changes and Wesker buffs? Fantastic!

wow they actually did a pretty good job on this patch. That’s unusual

I might be hard to please, but I am not happy about the changes to Reassurance. I think people talked about potential abuse a lot, but that's all it was: Talk. No one successfully demonstrated abusive situations on the PTB, and I've said to people that I'm willing to put solid money down on a bet that it simply is *not practical* to actually hold people hostage without the killer's cooperation - an element that can already lead to hostage outcomes. The potentially infinite delay was nice because it was literally only useful as long as the killer was inactive. If the killer commits to chases, then the game is progressing. If the killer doesn't commit to chases and camps, the game isn't progressing - and survivors could've used that perk to make sure that the killer doesn't get *anything* out of it. He gets zero new hook states as long as he ignores the people coming within 6 meters. Proxy camping is one thing (I have won games by proxy camping a 3-gen, I am not unfamiliar with that strategy), but the reward for sitting in one place should not be slight, or delayed by thirty seconds, it should be *nothing*. Face campers are patient, going from 60 seconds to 90 seconds doesn't affect them much. Besides, we acknowledge facecamping is an issue in the game - so even if we agree that the slight, marginal possibility of being held hostage by Reassurance is an issue, we still have to decide which one is the bigger, more practical issue. We have seen hundreds of videos of people getting facecamped, and zero of people getting held hostage. They could keep this change in the wings, and then just bring it in IF they find that there are heavy cases of survivors completely throwing games to troll people. Again, I'd put money down that it's not as simple as people think to pull that off.

Reassurance is once per hook instance. So if its like a bubba or something you'll only get the 90 seconds. It won't reset when they go second stage. Which is pretty damning against a killer who won't let you trade.

I feel like the game should have perks change when equipped to Nurse but stay the same for everyone else, that way everyone wins.

You definitely should do a video about Kalandra league, the changes are quite something to say the least.

The update says they're reverting the recent change, but changing MoM so that it grants a unique effect instead of endurance, so you can stack endurance and MoM. Basically its back to pre 6.1.0 patch

Bt not being disabled during end game basically means if you get hooked near a gate it’s a free escape in most situations

Continuing to remove things from survivors during end game is just bad. I agree it was fair for DS and OTR, but removing basekit BT would just kill the first person downed after the gens are done or if they are on hook as the gens pop. This would also KILL end game altruism (except maybe if perk BT still works in end game). Altruism is good for a killer, even if you don't get an additional kill, you're gonna get guaranteed hits/chase, and realistically you SHOULD be able to play it out in a way to get an additional down or force further altruism. If it were to become impossible for the survivors to get that last person out during end game, they would just leave and that would be it. Very boring, anti-climactic end game. Every game. No thank you

Missed your content dearly mister Jund

Just a point of clarification: his mobility collision and his hurtboxes/grab collision are not inherently tied. They could give him a teeny tiny movement capsule while at the same time giving him giant grab collision. The collision box used to detect grabs doesnt actually have to collide with the environment, its just used to detect survivors inside of it. The fact that they made both colliders smaller in this patch was coincidental (and frankly a good change on both sides).

Better than new actually got a nerf since they removed the bonus to repair speed. I know 6% isn’t crazy, but if you paired it with prove thyself or resilience it would’ve been super useful. Kinda disappointed, as it practically just works like leader now but with the detriment of having to heal.

Dude they must have hired a bunch of new people with a different vision and a better understanding about listening to the community. People that are also more willing to take chances.

Ya know, why don't they make nurse blinks like blight rushes? No expose effect. No more noed nurse, no more make your choice nurse, no more starstruck nurse.

It was wild that you thought the exact same thing I did when I saw this regarding Path of Exile.

More and more as time goes on, making Nurse's blink attacks be M2 attacks would just solve more and more problems...

Rebecca is absolutely bringing the tasty perks for Survivors

Hyper focus paired with a toolbox and steakout can be insane. But killers have a build that’s can make gens last 4minutes. If hyper focus is a problem, shouldn’t slowdown stacking be looked at as well?

Im super excited for this patch. I haven't been this excited for anything DBD related since the 4th Anniversary event.

I completely agree with you on the collision! I was rescued the other day and the person purposely kept bumping into me and edging me out of the exit of the loop so that they could leave first and I could take the hit. I essentiallyhad zero haste bc of the body block. I was the only person hooked and we only had 2 gens left so there was no need for the sandbag tbh. No collision after unhook would fix this.

Ever since 5.3.0 these patches have been good. yes there has been occasional bad things like boil over and coh. But other than that, its been great.

Whenever I see a "This is a fantastic update" video from Scott I check to make sure it's not a prank

Do you think Wesker will be able to hit you while vaulting if you're past the normal hit detection (like demo or m1 couldn't hit you because you're too far over) because of his injuring when too close thing. If so I think that'll be broken.

Path of Daylight & Dead by Exile, my two favorite games!

Updates are fine honestly. Would really like to see a nurse, spirit and blight nerf tho

a really good patch, making reassurance more reasonable and buffing getting unhooked. man of mettle is back baby

The Mettle of Man changes being reverted makes me so damn happy.

Scott: talking about changes Me: cat loaf

For reassurance, I would prefer to give a "give up" option to the survivor on the hook instead of this change. Because the only thing this change does is reducing it's usage on solo plays. If I bring this perk I can only use it once per hook stage but if I swf with 2 people we can still troll the last survivor because 90 seconds is still very long.

The one thing I was worried about from the PTB (Hyperfocus) was one of the only things left untouched. That's worrisome

I thought the title was ”Yet another update for Dead by Daylight which is weird”

Thanks for going over the patches man!

only thing im personally worried about is the change of survirors getting thrown at survivors inflicting deep wound now, i feel like that will be kind of annoying and theres already enough deep wound lol.

You were literally able to save people in end game without it, not always and not against everyone but it happened quite often. Plus 10% haste plus immortality makes weaker killers again weaker. I feel like removing it in end game is a minimum. Still you can run bt, hope etc. if you want an easier save options in end game.

It’s not often that you get 4 protection hits let alone 6, so the buff just makes it so you’ll see MoM earlier in the game which is probably better but also now there’s a notably higher chance you’ll eat 2 MoMs from one survivor

I have not been active in the community for a while. Do you have a video about the last good update they did? Can you tell the name of it?

Respectfully disagree about removing collision for 10 seconds off of hook. Not because your points aren’t valid…they absolutely are. But limiting player choice isn’t really good. IF the unhooked survivor wants to use their 10 seconds to take the hit instead of getting away it means they can and should be tunneled. Like healing right in front of the killer. But the idea that you can make plays as a team is still valid.

Any time Scott says "they did almost exactly what I suggested!" I immediately become suspicious that this is another fake patch :V

Waiting for this to be an elaborate "experiment" from Mr. Scott

What they need to further improve the grind is to revamp the daily quest system, either by making it equally likely to be either for survivor or killer or where the player can choose which role quest they take. I'm a survivor main and since the release of 6.1.0, my daily quests have been for blight, nightmare, doctor, pig, huntress, twins, nemesis, shape, clown, deathslinger, onyro, cenobite, legion, spirit, nurse, cannibal, trapper, wraith, and zero survivor quests.

People still play this repetitive ass game??? 6 years later and the same meaningless objective

When does the lower cost for the items in the bloodweb come out because for me everything is still old price even if I restart the game or prestige

But scott if they get rid of the collision for the survivor after an unhook then what's the point of the endurance status effect the whole point is so you don't go down after that hit so I feel like they would have to put in some entirely other mechanic and I think if they're gonna do the whole get rid of collision thing then they should just get rid of the endurance effect as a whole. Idk if this makes sense but yea lmao

Left Behind only reveals the Hatch now. Sole Survivor gives the gen speed bonus.

Also, how crazy would it be if Wesker could choose wich one of his dashes is the longer one? (think swiching clown bottles, but instead it changes wich dash is longer)

4:57 I interpreted the "...we will be reverting the revent update to MoM. MoM instead will..." as it'll be reverted to how it was before the update with 3 hits, and will also be updated in x y z way. idk tho. awesome patch overall, very excited for Hyperfocus to make doing gens more interesting.

Does Better Than New keep the gen repair speed? I read it them removing the gen repair speed bonus but buffing everything else.

dude I play poe and dbd and that first comment about what is happening in both of those games got a really good laugh out of me lmfao thanks scott

really feel like with awakened awareness that theyre forgetting about hangmans trick. theyre basically the same to some extent, but awakened is gonna be objectively better to keep momentum

The change to reassurance is a bit different than what I thought they'd do. I'd thought they'd make it so instead of a cool down on the perk, there'd be a cool down on the hooked survivor

Why can’t they just code that if nurse uses blink, that it’s a special attack till she either hits someone, or goes into blink fatigue? Also still say they should make blight and nurse lose charges for being stunned, cause counterplay is fun.

Its nice that they are reducing the grind, that was one of the things that made be quit because it took ages to level up characters for perks I needed

Could someone tell me when is this patch hitting live servers please ?

another problem with rcpd was the gens though, I kept seeing two gens in the same main entrance.

omg the path of exile thing was exactly what i was thinking.

No joke, I would love for you to make a this style video ranting about the current state of Path of Exile.
