Forums blowing up with the new patch, biggest concerns and frustrations?

[RadikalGamer 81]

Suicide bug seems to be the biggest one so far.

[cruehitman 246]

That and match ending out of nowhere are HUGE screwups.

We need a crate of fire extinguishers ASAP. The whole place is burnin' down!

Call the fire department.  ?

I know. Some dude has started like 4 threads in the last hour. 

Thought crosses your mind? Start a thread! 

Probably not necessary.

You know I can put up with plenty of shit but the game ending prematurely is stupid. 

[Bigblue2581 71]

My biggest concern is that the game is irreparably broken

[NScarlato 504]

Jason no longer needs buffs.  Escaping kills the counselors for him. 

No survivors xp ftw.

You know I think people can be too hard on this game. But the matches ending prematurely is something no one should have to tolerate. People may be whining but at least this time it's justified.

Yup, I haven't played since SP challenges dropped and I don't think I'll be coming back till they fix this mess. Six, you know how it is. Working 40 plus hours, taking care of everything else in your off time. I'm a welder, I sit in a 350 degree piece of hell all day in 30 lbs of leathers to make my living. I literally come home beat to shit most days in the summer. Then you get a few hours to play, do I really need the frustration of playing a game that does not function as intended? Rubberbanding has not been fixed, the escape suicide thing now. Seriously. I love the game but I'm maxed out on lvls, only badges and good times with friends is what I play for. And right now I see all these posts, and videos of the nonsense going on. Gotta say it doesn't make me want to get back at it, hell even if they could just fix all the stuff to the point where rubberband was the only crazy shit to deal with I would log in. As of now I'll stick to watching movies and playing Diablo 3 till they fix this game, at least in Diablo it doesn't kill me when I complete a mission... Not complaining here, just laying out one person's reasoning for why I'm not playing at the moment. I'll be back. Either when they fix the game, or maybe when fall weather hits and I'm not so tortured at work. Good luck to all you brave souls still grinding, keep the info flowing so guys like me know the deal. Thanks! Red.

Throwing in the towel for this game.

Gonna stick to dead by daylight

[Sir Jack 129]

Never experienced any of the bugs.

Only thing, I still get the "tembling victim" thing that the patch was officially going to fix.

[Ker Juice 161]

Wow us XB1 owners not getting the patch on time has finally paid off!  

I pray someone on the Microsoft certification team is a fan of the game and rejects this patch.

[Ste_Wolf 233]

Every time they release some patch, a bunch of crap gets broken. I am perplexed how this keeps consistently happening after a year.

^This.

Not being able to interact with windows after hitting Jason. Suicide after leaving in car. Match ending early. Stuttering when killing counselor as Jason. These need to be fixed ASAP. How much money have they lost because they can't fix BASIC game-play issues?

Not much really. They've already earned the lion's share of cash that they will from sales. The DLC's have done well enough to sustain revenue. The money isn't the problem they risk losing...it's the players.

[F134Ever86 570]

No players = No money

Who cares? They already made the money they needed to make; and then some. That is really the crux of the problem.

Is a boycott in order?

Honestly, it would make little difference. People can buy the DLCs if they wish, but not doing so will just hasten the end for the life-cycle of the game. Everyone keeps demanding Dedicated Servers, but they are also not the core problem. PC has had them since launch and that hasn't kept players in-game. Thinking they would help consoles stay more viable is naive. The biggest issue is the continued inability for the Dev team to reliably fix bugs/exploits/glitches and push patches in a timely manner. If they can't fix the game, nobody will play it. If they can't patch issues without creating a slew of new problems, people will leave. Servers won't change that. Boycotts won't change that. Money won't change that. New maps won't change that. An upgraded game engine won't change that. You get the idea.

Priority #1: Fix bugs

Priority #2: Fix bugs

Priority #3: Fix bugs

Priority #4: Whatever else needs to be done to get players interested if they hang around long enough to deal with the other priority issues.

Is anyone else having problems with party creation then going into lobbies?  Last night played with some buddies, and we keep losing people going from the dashboard to a lobby.  Seriously @ShiftySamurai, could you talk to someone about rolling back to the last build before this patch?  Sure, med spray not always working was a big problem, but we could actually make parties, and didn't get a shrew of new bugs like Jason "phasing" though doors or getting stuck on repairs.  If you guys have the resources, why no put together a external playtest team to playtest new build or use steam to put beta build for testing and bug report.

What platform are you on, because strangely enough, this used to be a problem for Xbox but has gotten better since the last patch.
