Dead by Daylight Patch Notes (February 2023)

Dead by Daylight has released another Patch note to fix some issues with the game. Generally, patch notes. The most recent patch notes were released on Feb. 8, 2023, alongside a new update to the game. The update is 6.5.2, and while most patches add new features to the game, this patch seemingly only adds some much-needed fixes.

Dead by Daylight Bug Fixes

The main purpose of this update was to add fixes to the patch notes for the game. Among the fixes are adjustments to Merciless Killer, the lobby, and spawns on the map. Below is the full update, but the patch notes on the official support site may help you understand what Behavior Interactive is trying to accomplish.

The developer has provided the following patch notes:

Adept Achievements / Merciless Killer

The devs left a little note on the achievements. While Merciless Killer has been fixed, Adept Achievements still requires a lot of work. The developers must have left a note to let players know they’re close to finishing—but that could just be hopeful thinking.

We’ve applied a tentative fix that should resolve an issue surrounding Merciless Killer, wherein Killing 4 Survivors would not trigger it as intended. Your Tally Screen Results should now be displayed accurately.

However, we are still working on a consistent fix to an issue surrounding the Adept Achievements for Killer and Survivor, which are still not unlocking correctly in select situations.

General changes

The most annoying issue is paying for something and not getting it. The developers have targetted this issue, as it can cause many issues on the player base.

There is no longer a missing prompt while purchasing Outfits.

Killer

Killers have multiple fixes in DBD. Multiple issues made things very unfair for killers, which hurt the game’s playability. Hopefully, this will improve things for players who want to play as a killer.

Killer players in a lobby will no longer see character swap arrows after opening the Bloodweb.

Using the Furin Add-On as The Spirit no longer impacts her audio while Phasing.

The Huntress’s menu music now loops correctly.

The camera no longer risks getting stuck when returning to Charlotte after Victor gets crushed.

Victor will no longer become unreachable after pouncing on a Vaulting Survivor.

The Hex: Huntress Lullaby no longer remains active after the Totem is cleansed.

The Hex: Huntress Lullaby Perk no longer gains two tokens each time a Survivor is Hooked after it has been re-activated by Hex: Undying.

The Knight can no longer grab Survivors at the end of the Patrol Path after Summoning a Guard

Survivor

The experience of playing as a survivor in DBD is a little better, but players still encounter multiple issues. Prior to the update, the Mangled effect was out of control, completely ignoring multiple perks that should have superseded it. These have been fixed, and multiple fixes were made to keep the survivors from dealing with unfair disadvantages.

Cages of Atonement no longer distort female Survivor faces.

Female Survivor faces are no longer distorted when another Survivor finds them in a Locker.

The Killer is no longer locked looking into the same direction during the survivor tutorial.

Wiggle skill checks now correctly grant Bloodpoints.

The Mangled effect no longer applies to the Mend, Snap Out of It, and Recover interactions.

The Aura reading ability of Maps may no longer remain active indefinitely.

Maps

The map changes focus on exploiting glitches that players are abusing. The Racoon City Recruit achievement is also mentioned as a result of a change.

Generators will no longer spawn too close together in the Racoon City Police Station Main Hall.

Players can no longer climb on a rock in the Eyrie of Crows.

Repairing the Generator in Racoon City Police Station West Wing awards the Raccoon City Recruit achievement.
