Hello all,

I’ve bought my first miner with a full crew and set them to mine in the Asteroid Belt via the behaviour screen.

The miner has a full storage, and is now on “waiting for signal”.

I’m assuming that’s because I haven’t discovered the necessary stations that use silicone yet, which I’ve mined, so I’m about to set off discovering some.

However, I also read that pilots without much skill will only sell in one sector or some shit? So would I need to find those stations in the Asteroid Belt so my miner will sell? Just so I don’t waste time exploring the wrong sectors haha.

I’m planning on sending my idle ships to explore all the sectors in Terran space anyway, but just so I know which one to explore first.

Thanks!

I’m on the Terran Cadet start and I just got teleported to my player HQ.

I’m unable to build a dock as instructed because I haven’t got the materials.

I’ve been wanting to go back to Mars to explore a bit more, but I for the life of me can’t find my way back.

I’m struggling to find gateways, and most ships are not willing to speak to me to give me directions.

Is there an easier way?

Hello!

I’m very out of the loop. I used to play when the game first came out and was level 200 before getting burned out. Last year or the year before I came back for literally 4 or 5 rounds when a lot of things changed, whilst also noticing that my levels were completely reset. My step brother said I should have had some sort of prestige, but I did not.

Kind of put me off a little, but still had fun nevertheless.

Didn’t come back to the game after that session and was planning on reinstalling and getting my girlfriend to play as she never played before, but this subreddit has been going on my feed a lot lately, and it seems like the general consensus is people are extremely unhappy with the game which is somewhat putting me off from buying it for my girlfriend.

However, in the posts I’ve seen, nobody has actually said what’s so shit now.

Can someone please explain what’s so bad about the game now? Or guide me to where I can learn?

It’s a very minor thing obviously, but it does sometimes get very tedious when you get to a planet, have to go through an elevator then head to a ship to then go to the planet.

It gets even more frustrating when you get to the ship and get ready to head to the planet, but one glance at the quest log and it’s says “use your ships holotable” so you have to go all the way back through and turn back to the orbital ship drop off haha.

But I don’t know, it seems kinda unnecessary no? Like couldn’t they have atleast let you spawn AT the hangar?

Ohohohoh okay. skill issue warning.

I’ve just gotten to Kuttenberg and decided to crack on with the Forge DLC. I found blacksmithing fun and it’s a nice little chill session.

I got the “investigation” quest from one of the guild members to retrieve stolen items, so I crack on.

I have to go to a camp near one of the villages, I forgot the name but the camp resides next to a barn that has an upstairs. We’ll go back to that god forsaken barn later.

Having already learned that the enemies in this region can quite literally rock your shit and one tap you, I decided to play it safer this time around. I look for the camp and dumbly ride right into it, not expecting it to be right infront of me. Alright let’s test the waters and see how tough it I- nope already dead.

Okay, I respawn at the quest giver and CAREFULLY go there this time as I know where the camp is now. Saviour schnapps drunk, so now I don’t have to travel all that way again.

Maybe if I take the bandit by himself, I’ll have a little edge, so I take on the bandit, and Mutt the glorious bastard runs into battle, faster than i ever seen him before ready to kick this guy as- fucker gets one tapped and fucks off from the fight, just in time for the other bandits to come and kick my ass. At least you tried I guess Mutt.

Okay, different approach. I wait until night, kill the lone guard at the camp pot and poison it, hiding the body in the bushes nearby. Fast forward til the afternoon and I take a peak at the camp, and with glee I saw two guards drop. I run in expecting the others to also be dead, but nope there’s 2 left and they again rock my shit.

Okay, a different approach. I wait until night, and stealth kill the guards, until eventually one of them notices. But he’s the last bandit huzzah! I get him down to literally a slither of health, but the fucker had one of those main character movie saving private Ryan ass moments where they get a sudden burst of wind looking at their fallen comrades, and gained the strength to swiftly attack me and one tap me.

Genuinely did this for over an hour until it finally worked.

Looted bodies, no keys and the items are locked in a medium chest. I intelligently neglected thievery because I wanted to be a honourable citizen, expecting to get my coin legit, so I imagine my shock when it eventually bit me in the ass.

Trader had no quick finger potions so I put the quest on hold.

Now this is where I become broken.

Finally got my quick finger potion and head back to the camp. Imagine my shock when I saw a smug looking individual patrolling the barn. They respawned. I decided to do the same again and hide and wait until night. I get rudely interrupted mid wait and find myself getting hit, so I fight. And fight I fucking did. Got to the last two bandits, and I died after taking 3 out with them all swarming me in a good 10 minute battle.

Oh well, I travel back into camp and waited until night AGAIN but successfully, stealthily killed all the bandits and killed the remaining two who noticed me. Or so I thought. I head upstairs ready to finally get the fucking items when I get caught with my pants down with a bandit who was chilling upstairs as I wreaked havoc in his camp.

Pitch black and using a longsword, I fought valiantly. Got a little greedy as he was close to death and he did another saving private Ryan ass slow motion scene and ALMOST one tapped me.

But then, to me surprise, there was a fucking tiny hole in the floor, with shelves underneath it. Deadass set up like a Vietnam war trap, and with just my luck, with all the available room I had, I fell into it. In pitch black, and confused wondering why I couldn’t move, and little stamina to jump out safely, I turn into a whack a mole carnival game unable to fight back as Henry refused to swing, and I didn’t have a clue what I was stuck in and the bandit was fucking taunting me, chipping away at my health with the high ground advantage and plenty of room to manoeuvre in.

Some divine being was watching over me however, as when I was on literally the tiniest bit of health, to the point you couldn’t even see the red bar anymore so a Haribo Tangfastic would have finished me off, I watched in horror as the bandit inched closer and closer, weapon raised and about to swing. I’d have to do this whole fucking fight again I thought, but POOF he vanished. No rabbit fighting symbol, nothing. I put away my sword and equip a torch, he’s nowhere to be seen. I hurriedly take my potion and get the items and went downstairs and saw his body. Somehow the fucker slipped between me and the shelf and died to fall damage.

I genuinely sighed with INSANE relief and gloated about it to my girlfriend, and quick travel back to Kuttenberg, only to be ambushed by bandits on my travels.

They rock my shit and I thought no worries, I had a save right? I did not. Notice how I didn’t mention saviour schnapps? Because I forgot to fucking use any and had to travel back from my bed at the Forge, to the camp and do it all again.

I couldn’t even enjoy the fact some ethereal being saved my ass, because where the fuck was it when i got ambushed????

Lesson to learn folks, ALWAYS MAKE SURE TO SAVE BEFORE FIGHTS AND HAVE PLENTY OF POTIONS ON YOU AND FOR THE LOVE OF GOD INVEST IN ALL THE SKILLS OR YOU’LL END UP LIKE ME.

I hope you enjoyed my story of pain, divine intervention, victory and also sorrow.

Absolutely love the game still, my skill issue won’t change that.

After playing and loving the first game last year, I finally got the second after seeing it on sale. Having a blast so far.

Anyway, I’m still at the start of the game obviously and decided to find Mutt first of all, also diverting to do some black smithing for the wedding.

After a couple hours searching, I finally find him and was expecting a good jolly reunion

The dialogue options were something along the lines of “I finally found you!” And “you mangy bastard” or some shit like that

Now in real life, I’ll chat shit to my dogs but in a loving way, so naturally I chose the second option thinking it would be a wholesome reunion.

But what does Henry do after finding the dog who saved his life days earlier, and stayed by his side to fight his fur friends?? Fucking unleash the unholiest, Eviscerating**,** diabolical word salad I’ve seen uttered to a dog.

My smile was promptly wiped clean as he threatened to fucking skin him as Mutt was confused with fur hanging from his teeth, he probably mauled his best wolf pal too

I promptly skinned a wolf and just dropped a shit load of meat as an apology for him to eat, but who am I kidding? He’s gonna remember that. The echoes of Henry threatening to skin him alive will forever replay in his dog brain.

But like what did you expect Henry? He got a swift right hook to his jaw after he stopped you from being stabbed. You expect him to run around Samine with a shitty drawn police sketch of you asking if the villagers have seen you? Let the dog breathe 😭

No shade to the game though of course, I just completely misinterpreted the dialogue options and thought what was a fucking word beat down was meant to be a wholesome conversation.

Hope he forgives me!

New player here

Went through first two USA missions for liberation relatively well, and now I’m on this one

Holy shit am I not prepared

Got the first 3 points really well, just used my observer to shell the AT guns and moved in with infantry and vehicle to mop up.

Now on my way to the fourth point, I take out a few of the anti tank guns surrounding it and take up positions ready to attack.

BUT whenever I destroy this one specific AT gun, the Germans fucking divert all their forces on the Eastern Front and the surrounding areas to come fuck me up. And they are great at doing it.

The second it’s destroyed, I get absolutely pummelled by artillery that I can’t see the origin of, but definitely out of reach from my mortars and observer which usually takes out most of my infantry in 3 shots because apparently Germany discovered GPS guided shells during the war

Then a shit load jagdpanzers come out to play and I can’t pen them from the front with my anti tank or my tanks for that matter, and if I go and try to flank them from the sides, I end up in Vietnam because the trees and bushes start shooting at my tanks with anti tank guns or there will be another tank hidden nearby.

My anti tank guns? They don’t exist. The moment they fire a shell they get destroyed by pinpoint artillery or the Jagdpanzers delete them. My AT infantry? They already died in the first artillery bombardment.

Honestly, what do I do? I really like this game but sometimes it feels impossible which is obviously a skill issue on my part.

Do I pull all my units back and try to defend in a different area and trigger the German counter attack by destroying the AT gun?

Does the counter attack stop? Or will it only stop if I capture the 4th point?

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Why you don’t get achievements for killers disconnecting once the last gen pops baffles me.

I’m currently doing the survivor generalist achievements, and had quite a few rough matches. But the last few times I was on course to escaping a trial, the killer disconnects and snatches the progress towards the achievement away from me.

Just had a Bubba who disconnected on the last gen too before making the post.

It was a pain in the ass getting adepts too with killers disconnecting.

I’m on the first mission as the Germans in Ostfront campaign

Did the first objective and now I gotta clear a village.

Protected by two anti tank guns and a tank, which I took out leaving the anti tank weapons.

Obviously it shreds my tanks so I can’t bring them forward, so I bring my infantry up and take out the AT guns. But then they in turn get shredded by tanks in the village aswell as infantry.

Are there any tactics I can use? I do use smokes to try and give me concealment, but I still end up being shredded by a tank nearby that I have seen yet.

Once I get the hang of using infantry and tanks together, I think I’ll be golden

It’s 2026 and people are still doing that??

Doing Alan Wake adept in a match against Demigorgon. Dwight got downed across the map in basement and got hooked as Sable was opening gate.

So mind you, bloodwarden wouldn’t even be in play right now. And after Dwight gets unhooked, we’ll all be on deathhook.

Anyway, as Sable was opening the gate I begin making my way down to the shack for a save.

Saw demi leave in his portal so I go for the unhook.

Demi obviously comes back after I unhooked and intercepts so I take chase and divert away from shack as Sable and Dwight heal behind the shack.

Little did I know, the gate wasn’t even opened. I was so focused on the save I didn’t clock the gate wasn’t even open yet.

I loop the killer and head right towards the gate. I have enough distance that I would have made it to the line, but no I break my nose on the big ass door that was closed..

I had to head to the panel and manage to open the gate but of course the Demi catches up and downs me. By now the other 2 caught up and the Dwight gets downed somehow, I assume it was to try and flash save as he made several attempts prior.

Demi pressures the Sable out and I get picked up literally millimetres away from escaping. Dwight luckily had unbreakable and escaped.

99ing the gate ALMOST got us a 1 out had Dwight not have unbreakable, but of course I still died because of it so the Demi got a 2K.

To the new players, PLEASE do not 99 gates. Bloodwarden is hardly ever picked, and you have MORE than enough time to make a rescue and reach the exit with the end game timer. More often than not it gets someone killed, like i just did who also lost out on an adept.

If you DO decide to 99 the gate, wait by the fucking gate and open it when you see the survivors coming. I have no idea how you expect survivors to open the gate mid chase and also escape without the killer being on their asses.

Just open the damn gates.

I don’t know, the entire day today I’ve had quite a few matches with very suspicious killers making a beeline right towards survivors nearby.

Could be behind a rock/wall ready to go for the unhook, not injured, not disturbing any crows but the killer will make a DIRECT beeline towards the survivor, sometimes lunging before they get a full visual. It doesn’t even have to be nearby hooks or anything either.

No aura perks or addons or anything basekit with their abilities either.

Once or twice a game I can chalk it up to being lucky, but the entire match I get a bit suspicious.

Anyone else experiencing it? Of course with no proof I can’t say for certain, same with when a survivor runs you a bit TOO good you can’t know for certain.

But it’s enough to leave a little sour taste in my mouth

Whenever I play survivor and see survivors with matching usernames, especially the ones who are in relationships in real life, so one would for example be called “beansenjoyer” and the other “beansenjoyer bf” I just sigh at this point, because 8/10 times it’s a rough match because they are GLUED together the entire match.

Ironically I also play with my girlfriend, but ITS ALWAYS the ones with matching usernames.

I was just on Badham and was in a chase with Jason. Looped him for around 80% of a gen before being downed because I got stuck by an object in a loop. Slightly annoying but it happens.

I got put on the hook in the street near the ambulance.

I see they are both working on a generator in the house opposite killer shack, but as soon as Jason went into power, they both jumped off the generator. Was 80% complete so they could have finished it off but hey ho I guess.

My girlfriend was working on a gen near them and Jason finds her so she’s in chase now. Perfectly visible on the hud.

They are BOTH still hiding in the house, and get back on the gen around 10 seconds later. Annoying because you DONT need 2 people on a gen that’s 80% complete when I’m across the map already on hook for 20 seconds at this point. It’s the start of the match too.

For some reason they both get off gen for a few seconds so I was thinking they were going to get me? But they crouch for a bit in the house and get back on the gen again.

Generator FINALLY pops and they leave the house and the both of them, because they are glued together run into the Jason chasing my girlfriend gets pressured themselves already on the other side of the map.

Now my girlfriend has been left alone, she came to me for the rescue and unhooked me just as I entered second stage.

And of course because the other 2 survivors have to be together at all times for some reason, both get downed by the Jason.

We lose the match obviously, but EGC one of them said “sorry you entered second stage, I was being chased”

I’m sorry?? My girlfriend was being chased the entire hook stage whilst you were both in the house committing to a gen that the ONE of you could have popped by the time you reached me on hook. You were NOT in chase until the final moment.

Not only that, if you weren’t scared of Jason’s power, you would have done the gen MUCH sooner.

I checked their profiles and one had 2k hours and the other had 3K hours but they can’t understand the basics? And STILL crouch and hide whenever Jason is in power. It’s just insane to me.

Obviously not all matching usernames do this, but in my experience the majority do and it always hinders the team because we’re not getting good gen pressure, and when one is in chase, the other always is too because they are ALWAYS next to each other.

It’s genuinely not a date, you can split up lmao.

I’m a killer main myself, the event CAN be rough at times no doubt, especially when the survivors constantly have a morsel in hand for the effects.

But anyways, the event is also miserable when the killers are utilising the sweatiest playstyles.

Decided to play the survivor side as my girlfriend wanted to play. We were both adepting Rick so we already aren’t using “meta” perks. We matched against a Wesker and they’d constantly returned to hook and tunnelled out the Cheryl in the team at 5 generators, and did the same for me next. I led him on very decent chases, but as the other random wasn’t going on gens, we couldn’t capitalise on the long chases.

Down to two left, and he downs the other random who has 0 hooks and slugs them looking for my girlfriend. Downs my girlfriend and then starts humping and hitting the other survivor on the floor BEFORE finally hooking the random and mori my girlfriend.

So on top of that, he wasted time in a match he won and just straight up being a dick too.

Normal queue, I wouldn’t mind the tunnelling as much because it’s a proper game of DBD, but in an event mode where everyone brought cakes? It’s strange behaviour in my opinion.

Yes the event is survivor sided, but you can win games AND get more BP perfectly fine just playing the game as normal. If you’re not playing the event for fun, and to play around with the mechanics, why queue up for the mode?

Let me start by saying because I know there will be a couple;

No I do not think unbreakable is busted or OP, nor do I think it needs any changes or tweaks. It’s perfectly fine.

I just wanted to tell you about a match I had.

Let me also add, I haven’t seen unbreakable in a good 20 matches.

I’m playing as Plague to get her Terminal Illness achievement, and I load into Azarov’s resting place. Already a bad map for low mobility killers who have no map pressure, but to make matters worse, a survivor brought in Shroud of Separation so I can see there’s 2 survivors on either side of the map which is bad news.

Long story short, I get to 1 gen. 1 survivor on death hook, one on 1 hook, one on 0 hooks and the last survivor is literally seconds from dying on the hook. Everyone is fully infected.

I intercepted a survivor who managed to rescue on hook and down them, infectious fright gave me the location of another survivor and down them, with infectious fright leading me to the NEXT survivor and downing them. Thanks to coup de grace, these chases were near instant.

Then infectious fright leads me to the person who just got off hook and she leads me on a semi decent chase. With SUCH GLEE I happily go on the chase because I just snowballed into a perfect comeback victory.

But thanks to the icons being red from the full infection, I didn’t notice one of the survivors got up from unbreakable and healed recovered the others until he got them both up. That smile wiped off so fucking quickly and by the time I got back to them, they disappeared and cleansed their infections.

The last gen was a series of them pre running the second my TR made an appearance so i couldn’t quite commit as they made so much distance already against a low mobility killer.

I ended up with a 2K that game.

I NEVER see unbreakable, but the games where I manage to snowball like I did here, there’s always a survivor who magically has unbreakable and it’s insane lmao, it’s just my luck.

The last time I saw unbreakable, I downed a survivor at a 99 gate, saw another lurking nearby so I chased them and once I hooked them, the survivor picked themselves up and escaped.

Didn’t see unbreakable before that for a good 10 or so matches too.

It’s like the game knows I’m about to have a great come back via snowball and just shoves unbreakable into a survivor loadout real quick haha.

This may just be my new favourite perk in the game.

I’ve been going through the entire killer roster to get all achievements tied to the killers, and my god I should have begun using this perk earlier.

Managing to win 50/50s because you can swing earlier and catching survivors at vaults they’d have usually made is so satisfying haha.

Not to mention the cocky survivors at gates thinking they can tea bag you further from the exit line because you’re an M1 killer but you fucking teleport onto them and down them

Such a great perk you all need to try on M1 killers

What team, no matter how good your form is or how much better your team is on paper consistently causes you problems and beats you?

Right now mine is Getafe as I’m managing Real Sociedad.

In the Premier League, it’s always Brighton and Norwich.

No idea who in their fanbase practices voodoo magic but they need to stop hexing my fucking players

Just had a bit of a rough match on Midwich as Nemesis. Missed my early whips so couldn’t get tiers as quick as I would like.

Anyway, last gen pops and I’m on 12 hooks so it was a close match regardless. I was trying to get my whip achievement for Nemesis so I wasn’t playing as optimally. Could have downed survivors at many moments but missed the whip instead lmao, so it could have turned another direction.

Anyways, gate opens and I head there to see 2 of the survivors haven’t left and have just stood there, but for some reason Ace was stood closer to the gate than the exit line, so I hit him in to get him to leave, but for some reason he thought he wanted to get a quick loop out? He drops the pallet by the gate and I’m assuming he expected me to loop it as the other killers would so he can “game” me one last time but I just broke it with my whip where he then panicked and ran into the classroom next to the gate and I downed & hooked him.

Went back to gate and the other survivor was STILL there but hiding close to the gate but in the corner assuming I wouldn’t see her, I hit her and she got stuck through the speed boost or something because I managed to hit her again and down her which I hooked.

A guarantee 4 out turned into a 2K.

Never understand survivors who want to antagonise killers by forcing them into a small chase or to spin their attacks when they can simply leave, especially since this can happen.

It wasn’t even a stomp on their behalf too, the Ace managed one stun the entire match and his chases were average at best, I have no idea why they thought they could pull it off when we were all evenly matched lmao.
