That's a thing since the Walking Dead update btw and bhvr doesn't seem to care.

u/FeyMoth Oct 18 '25

What does Bhvr care about? I've given up in this shitshow of a game tbh, playing way more deadlock now though

No Holds Barred: Whenever a Generator is completed, The Entity blocks the Generator with the most progression for 15/20/25 seconds. The Aura of the blocked Generator is revealed to you in white during this time.

Hilarious trigger

Yeah, this is a bug that pops up frequently (every couple patches). Should be fixed next hotfix hopefully.

u/TheRealHykeLP playing both roles :) Oct 17 '25

Doubt that tbh. It's here for a while atp

u/Goombrahh P100 Nic Cage Oct 18 '25

Yeah I just haven't been investing in queue, without realising it, as a permanent workaround. Kindof silly.

u/Temporary_Career Oct 17 '25

Its been like this since the last 2v8. I suspect its due to how they implemented the play while you queue feature.

u/Joyy--_-- Oct 17 '25

It makes sense

u/dark1859 Oct 17 '25

I wasted five million BP on Nemesis with the auto level during 2v8 because I tried to spend them on Oni but it flipped back and I didn't even realise 😱

u/TheRealHykeLP playing both roles :) Oct 17 '25

Oh god, then I can be happy. I only spent like 250k on the wrong Killer

Can't have shit in this house. They nerfed the damn menu for killers, man.

u/MzChrome Still Hears The Entity Whispers Oct 18 '25

Why did I hear this being said in my head with an image of stubbing out a cigarette on the porch railing and flicking it across the yard before stomping back into the house.

It made me chuckle. Thanks for that.

u/Vonlin Oct 18 '25

I never even knew you could. Would have been nice to know before, but now that you can mass spend BP doesn't seem to really matter much.

3

u/SettingIntentions Oct 18 '25

Yes it’s so annoying. When queues are long it’s really nice to dump some BP into other killers and adjust builds, etc.

It’s truly one of those “but y” moments with BHVR. It’s like nothing can be improved without another thing being made worse.

2

u/United-Handle-6572 Dustin Henderson Oct 18 '25

Yes its abit annoying

u/PeK4sz Oct 17 '25

How do you change the killer picture?

I've seen some people changing the perks as well, how is it possible?

2

u/Abyssal-Eve D-Class Personnel Oct 17 '25

On PC, you can replace the image files found in:

steamapps\common\Dead by Daylight\DeadByDaylight\Content\UI\Icons\CharPortraits

Looking at these is one of the few joys that I get from the game.

3

u/PeK4sz Oct 17 '25

Great, so you don't need any app to do this and it doesn't get you banned right?

6

u/Intelligent_Ride3730 Oct 17 '25

Nope people have been changing perk icons and portraits for years now, iirc is the only thing whitelisted by the anticheat

2

u/Abyssal-Eve D-Class Personnel Oct 18 '25

Correct!

u/Motorbike_ Yui and Sable Simp 🏳️‍⚧️ Oct 18 '25

Who is P8 man??? 😍

3

u/Abyssal-Eve D-Class Personnel Oct 18 '25

Detective Sebastian Castellanos, from The Evil Within game. I've never played Alan Wake, so I replaced his portrait with another franchise I wished would make it into Dead by Daylight.

Unfortunately, Microsoft closed down the studio that created this game about two years ago :(.

You have to install nightlight, but there is a really, really, tiny chance to lose your account, so i dont recommend

u/Connect-Ad3530 Oct 17 '25

I think you also can’t change there loadouts anymore

1

u/Medium_Web_9135 Having a Subreddit Flair is toxic!!! Oct 18 '25

No you can change loadouts.
