Ultimately, players that can secure the high ground within a closing circle can benefit from better vantage points, shot angles and cover. For instance, a player perched on the mountains to the east of the redeploy balloon at Slum Lakes can spot opponents from just west of Containment all the way through the tops of the houses across Slum Lakes. Because of view obstructions, players situated in lower ground positions will have a harder time spotting opponents and tracking locations of enemy squads, making them ill-prepared to spot and track their opposit

He concluded by stating that there is some room to experiment, but only because of the hard work put into creating what the game is today, "I think we could potentially push the boundaries of what can fit in DBD , to a certain extent, we’ve created something that is powerful enough to withstand a bit of stretchi

Shadow characters can walk through the storm without taking damage. They can also use ziplines and Wraith’s portals. They are unable to open doors but are able to melee through them, and they can climb extremely high relative to the Legends. An understanding of what a shadow character can and can’t do will help guide decision-making during the m

When asked about this or franchises that seems impossible to implement, Côté states, "That’s a tough one, because the ones that I really want in are possible, but, the Xenomorph and even the Predator are really on that line, just past the line for use, but others would argue that they would be fine within the Dead by Daylight world, and that’s a long debate." There is no doubt that some would argue in favor of such a character, but one would expect Dead by Daylight to stick to more traditional, horror-based properties rather than mixing with too much science fict

Côté continued by explaining how from the beginning the developers of Dead by Daylight strived to create a unique world, and it was a challenge when they first introduced a licensed character instead of one of their own creations, "We didn’t want people to mistake our game for a Halloween game [the film franchise] PS5 Game Trailers, we have to be Dead by Daylight. I think that when we brought in Michael Myers, we continued to create our own chapters, and we managed to create a brand that is strong and stands on its on. Dead by Daylight is not diluted when you add Freddy Krueger, it’s now become a playground where all of horror can live, which is something you don’t see in other places. I think the only other place where you saw as many of these characters interact is Mortal Komba

Perhaps even more than playing Dead by Daylight , its player base loves speculating about who the next survivors and killers will be to join in on the terrorizing fun that is sacrificing to, or escaping, the Entity. We recently had the opportunity to speak with Mathieu Côté, the game director for the game at Behavior Interactive, and he had some fascinating insight on how these characters are chosen, as well as why Scooby Doo and the Mystery Incorporated gang will likely never appear in the g

TheGamer had a chance to check out a trifecta of Razer’s latest top-of-the line accessories - including the Razer Viper Gaming Mouse, Razer Huntsman Tournament Edition Keyboard, and Razer Kraken Tournament Edition Headset - and couldn’t have been happier with the quality and responsiveness that each peripheral provi

Character balancing is extremely difficult, and it’s really only possible to get it right after significant feedback. For example, when Respawn looked at gameplay data from the first few months of the game, it became clear that Caustic and Gibraltar were being underutilized. And, it was also apparent that Wraith, Lifeline and Pathfinder were either over-utilized or had a higher proportion of kills and wins than other characters. So, Respawn introduced its fortified damage reduction buff and its Low Profile damage increase nerf for these respective groups of charact

If you’re in need of a keyboard that knows which key you’re going to push before you push it, the Razer Huntsman Tournament Edition Keyboard is exactly what you’re looking for. Okay, that might be a bit of an exaggeration, but this keyboard is quite possibly the most sensitive and responsive keyboard that I’ve ever used. This is no doubt due to the Razer Linear Optical Switches equipped to the keys, each with a durability of up to 100 million keystrokes and an optical actuation of 1.0mm. It doesn’t take much pressure for a key to be clic

In Shadowfall , undead players' melee attacks do a whopping ~~158 damage each~~ 150 damage each. ( Update: The Shadow Legend melees do 150 damage, but with the Low Profile trait for Wraith, Pathfinder, Wattson and Lifeline, this amounts to 158. Since Gibraltar and Caustic both have the Fortified trait, these characters take 15% less damage. This means zombie melees grant around 133 damage .) If a Legend has only a while shield, this amounts to ~~a one-hit kill~~ . a one-hit kill for most characters. Therefore, it’s important to have at least a Level 2 shield early on in the game. The game’s supply ship and hot zones will almost always have Level 3 or Level 4 shields somewhere. However, players may have to fight other Legends for t
