    Jogo fraco... Não tem muito o que fazer, só ficar segurando o analógico pra frente e correr de um monstro que te persegue que você consegue “vencer” .

    I love having all of these killers I grew up with in horror movies, like Michael Myers and Freddy. I really enjoyed playing this when it first came out. But with them constantly added new killers to switch it up is what keeps bringing me back to the game.

    Now that said, there are some flaws, like the major one, no dedicated server? And playing multiplayer is a pain. When you survive with friends, after each game we constantly need to rejoin one anothers group for a new game. This could be fixed.
    But otherwise, gameplay wise, I enjoy it!    … Expand

    For this type of game I have to give it a 9, because I thoroughly enjoy and come back to it. There's not that many horror online multiplayer games that make me do that. And yes, the fame does have its glitches and so on but even with those I can't help myself but enjoy it, it's very addictive.

    This game was good once upon a time. Now it's full of bugs that the developer won't fix. It still runs on a P2P connection system? Despite promises to provide dedicated servers. Balance is completely **** up. The game used to favor survivors, then it became balanced for a short while, now it's completely stacked in the killer's favor. This game is now trash. Avoid it at all costs.

    A very fun game whether playing as the survivor or the killer; truly terrifying as a survivor until you understand how to more skillfully navigate the game. Unfortunately, the game tends to be balanced towards survivors, and over time has become very polarized in difficulty between the two. Killer has become unreasonably challenging due to the many ways they allow survivors to escape.A very fun game whether playing as the survivor or the killer; truly terrifying as a survivor until you understand how to more skillfully navigate the game. Unfortunately, the game tends to be balanced towards survivors, and over time has become very polarized in difficulty between the two. Killer has become unreasonably challenging due to the many ways they allow survivors to escape.

    Like any game it has it's technical issues here and there. For instance, screens with menus tend to make your system sound like it's going to fly away, but settles down once a match starts.

    The developer definitely commit's player's money toward improving the game, but it doesn't help the perception the game's developer generates with certain costs it imposes for things like cosmetics. Some cosmetics can only be purchased with a purchasable currency in the game, which isn't so bad. What's bad is that the currency is advertised as being in discounted packs, like one pack provides 1100 currency, for 9.99, suggesting you are getting 10% free. However, the outfits you purchase with the currency are marked up accordingly; a full outfit, on the page you buy it is also marked as being discounted by roughly 10%, but in all it costs you all of the currency you buy. So, there's not really any discount on the currency or the outfit.

    It's easy to overlook these things when you realize that you don't have to buy anything to play the game; some characters require you to purchase them with real money, but most can be bought with a currency earned by just playing the game. But, there are shady aspects of the purchased characters, too. Characters that have strong perks that can be taught to other characters in the game will often be changed a month or two after release leaving you regretting buying the character for the perk alone.

    If you can overlook the costs of buying new content, or don't care about playing the game without the paid content, you can manage to have a lot of fun - provided you can tolerate the community, too.    … Expand

    Dead By Daylight is a very hard game to review. There are many pros as there are cons.

The character designs are also pretty unique, so its easy to find a character that fits everyone. However    Dead By Daylight is a very hard game to review. There are many pros as there are cons.

    However on the down side, the game suffers from a distinct lack of care when addressing bugs and fixes for all platforms ( ps4 is always problematic ) And the developers desire to create new twists and ideas, can sometimes overarch into a creating concept that simply does blend in well with the rest of the game. But the biggest issue of all is the lack of moderation when it comes players behaviour and play styles in game ( hard camping is allowed ! ) which has created a slightly toxic atmosphere within the ps4 dbd community. Trust me playing with friends is very much advised.

    Overall I would still recommend this, and once you see past the flaws there is a very unique experience to be had.    … Expand

Некоторые из них:

    - FPS. Это главная проблема. Люто проседают кадры. Особенно при игре за маньяка, попасть очень трудно, если выживший умеет мансить. Иногда до фризов доходит. Вроде бы можно поднять кадры, понизив разрешение в настройках консоли, но это такой себе метод. Игра и без этого страшненькая.

    - Управление. Специфика игры за выживших подразумевает постоянное вращение камерой, необходимо постоянно очень быстро оглядываться. Максимальной сенсы, выставленной в настройках игры, катастрофически не хватает. Зачем такое ограничение непонятно.

    - Матчмейкинг. Ищет довольно долго. Если все таки игру находит, то с вероятностью 50/50 тебя кинуло к маньяку из какого-нибудь задрищенска или из Испании, например. В результате имеем пинг >300. Приходится ливать, искать заново. И так раз по 5 приходится выходить из лобби - нормальная ситуация.

    - Лаги, баги. Очень много. Сколько уже патчей вышло, а воз и ныне там.

    - Дисбаланс. Некоторые маньяки настолько сильные , что в более менее умелых руках у выжившых почти нет шанса выйти с карты. (Нюрса, Рин). И наоборот. Против стака из 4 выжившых, играющих в пати и имеющих связь между собой, маньяку практически нечего делать.

    - Еще о дисбалансе. Убитые маньяком выжившие теряют предметы и аддоны обязательно. Маньяк не теряет ничего, даже если выжившим удалось сбежать.

    - Комьюнити. Тупорылые школотроны, токсичные. Начинают написывать в личку на всех языках, утверждают что имели близость с моей мамой. Происходит это при любом раскладе. При игре за мана, например: если ты если выиграл, значит ты кемпер, туннелер, нуб, мудак; если проиграл - тоже нуб, мудак, иди играй в майнкрафт. В личку написывают почти после каждой игры.    … Expand

    An asymmetric multiplayer experience that let's you be the star of your very own slasher film as either the killer or a would-be survivor. It gets the basics right with some very balanced 1 v. 4 action, a solid amount of characters to choose from, and deep skill trees. However, with only one game mode and a somewhat limited amount of maps the game's longevity can rightfully be called intoAn asymmetric multiplayer experience that let's you be the star of your very own slasher film as either the killer or a would-be survivor. It gets the basics right with some very balanced 1 v. 4 action, a solid amount of characters to choose from, and deep skill trees. However, with only one game mode and a somewhat limited amount of maps the game's longevity can rightfully be called into question. Especially if you don't have any friends to help you try and survive the night with.

    Personally, I found playing as the killer to be the most fun of the two options. It's all hunting down survivors and sacrificing them to the "Entity." You're slower than they are, but much stronger. Things like audio cues will help you track them down on the map whenever they happen to make a noisy mistake. Each killer plays uniquely and managing to come out on top feels great because it means you managed to outplay four other people at once who were all working together. Which even as an invincible psychopath isn't as easy as you might think. I think the main reason I preferred to play this way though was because I wasn't forced to rely on other people.

    Playing as a survivor can be equally rewarding. Provided you have a good team. If you don't have any friends with the game then you're at the mercy of randos. I think we all know how poorly that can turn out. Communication are coordination are key to success. Your goal is to get a certain amount of generators going to open the exit. One little slip-up during the repair sequence can cost you everything as it instantly alerts the killer to your location. With no way to defend yourself it's all running, hiding, and trying to not be seen. You still have a chance to succeed by yourself, but it's so much harder. With some buddies and mics this can be a blast, but after jumping into so many random matches that ended in disaster because wanted to work together, I quickly decided to play strictly as a killer when no one I knew with the game was online.

    Dead by Daylight might not be the most content rich experience and half of it practically requires you to play with friends, but the novelty of getting to play tense games of cat-and-mouse against real people makes it worth a look for those curious. Horror fans in particular will get kick out of just how accurate a representation it is of slasher flicks. One game mode wasn't quite enough to keep me coming back for months on end even with two distinctly different methods of play, but it was fun while it lasted. And some that's going to be a long time.    … Expand

    Dead by Daylight is an online multiplayer title where one player takes on the role of the “killer” and attempts to hunt down a team of four players before they are able to escape.

    The idea behind the game certainly has potential but unfortunately it has not been fully realised here. Each level is randomly generated meaning that, although there are a selection of different locations,    Dead by Daylight is an online multiplayer title where one player takes on the role of the “killer” and attempts to hunt down a team of four players before they are able to escape.

    The idea behind the game certainly has potential but unfortunately it has not been fully realised here. Each level is randomly generated meaning that, although there are a selection of different locations, they all look virtually the same. On top of this the team of four are always tasked with doing exactly the same thing to escape, namely activate five generators by sitting there holding L1 for about 2 minutes each time, and then find the exit. There is an skill tree of sorts that allows players to improve certain skills and stats but it makes little to no real difference to the way the game plays.

    If you can get four or five friends together its possible there is some short term fun to be had but in the end the core gameplay is too simplistic and repetitive to hold players interest for very long.    … Expand

If they upped the graphics, fixed bugs, added more content, and refined the matchmaking system, then I could see this game really catching on.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I love the game but don't bother getting it on console. Not until they decide to fix the flawed system that the rage quitting killers love to exploit. Good game but very toxic and almost unplayable on the PS4.

    Pros: Great co-op experience,
    modes where you can only pay with friends,
    tense atmosphere,
    interesting killers and survivors.

    Cons: Killers always leave when the survivors are about to win,
    killers camp so survivors can't be saved,
    microtransactions,
    you lose all your equipped items and don't get bloodpoints if the killer disconnects.
    After every single game you have to invite your friends again because even if you're in a group because the whole thing disbands after the game.

    Had 5 games in a row where when my friends and I got the gates open to escape and the killer disconnected so we got nothing. I believe they should make it to where the killer or even survivor who disconnects is the only one to lose everything and gain nothing so the rest of us are not being punished for the antics of childish players.    … Expand

Leaving for some really choppy and broken games, as doing most actions such as escaping from the killer, dropping pallets, vaulting, etc will leave you with massive frame rate issues. Making it hard on both sides ( survivor and killer ) to do their job effectively. There are no dedicated servers and killers with consistently bad connection to the server will ruin the game for others in the lobby making it a terrible experience for survivors, since the killer creates the lobbies. Looking past all of those issues this game is fun to play. Im glad they made this game free for ps plus users last month, as buying this game full price might not be in your best interest. You can gather up to 3 other friends and have a exciting time playing against all sorts of killers. However the developers should have really thought about porting this to console....… Expand

    TL;DR - Dead by Daylight is an unbalanced mess of a game that heavily favors one side over another for the sake of "atmosphere" (AKA player hindrance)

In this aspect, Dead by Daylight    TL;DR - Dead by Daylight is an unbalanced mess of a game that heavily favors one side over another for the sake of "atmosphere" (AKA player hindrance)

    When I began playing this game, I expected something in the vein of Evolve - a 4v1 multiplayer that puts greater emphasis on the 1 while giving the 4 a healthy amount of options to deal with the threat. In this aspect, Dead by Daylight fails in EVERY regard. The 4-person team of "Survivors" are left with little to no way of dealing with the "Killer" player, outside of awkwardly running at a pace that can only be described as "brisk walking". Some may argue this is thematically appropriate, given that this game likes to pretend it's a slasher flick from the 80's. While this may be true, that is no defense for a game that actively hinders the player at every turn for the sake of atmosphere. Wanna heal yourself? Without a special (randomized) perk, too bad, you have to wait for a buddy. Want to strategically bait the monster and try to duck around him? Sucks to be you, monsters have a hit box that would put Call of Duty to shame, and you could get hit even if you're BEHIND the damn thing. Got stuck on the hook and want to try your luck at escaping? How adorable, you get a 4% (ACTUAL NUMBER) chance of succeeding, with 2-3 failures resulting in an instant loss for you. As an added bonus, if you DO manage to escape and then get hooked again, you have roughly 3 seconds before you're booted from the game. Should you play as a Survivor, you will have to deal with the fact that the game is actively trying to MAKE you lose. Playing as a Killer feels clunky and poorly designed, as you must deal with an awkward first-person view that's slightly obscured with a constant mist on your screen. Most killers are very large people that tower over survivors, thus making chasing them feel unnatural as a result, as they will duck into holes and corridors that you simply can't fit through. And yet, picking off Survivors is EXTREMELY easy, as they cannot do a single thing to you, outside of shining lights at you or putting obstacles in your way, which are minor inconveniences at best. Finally, and perhaps the most egregious nail in the proverbial coffin for this wannabe slasher hybrid, a multiplayer game that completely disbands the lobby after EVERY SINGLE MATCH is nothing short of disgraceful.

    I've played several matches with my friends and several more by myself, and I can say without a shadow of a doubt that this is one of the worst multiplayer experiences I've ever slogged through.
