Dead by Daylight Update Adds the Most Satisfying Feature

Latest Dead by Daylight update adds a feature that gives you feedback when you report a player.

By Ricky Frech

Dead by Daylight may have just added a new fan-favorite Survivor in Nicolas Cage, but the developers at Behaviour Interactive aren't finished giving fans exactly what they want. The latest hotfix includes a much-requested feature that will finally give players feedback when they report other players. This means that you'll now be given a notification when action has been taken based on your report. While the new feature was implanted yesterday alongside the hotfix, it certainly sounds like Behaviour Interactive will be tweaking the feature going forward to ensure it meets its standards, as well as those of the community.

Of course, that's not the only thing in the new hotfix. There are a whole host of bug fixes included in the update. That includes everything from things like Ghostface's camera having weird movements when they were leaning or stalking to a bug that was letting Killer hook Survivors through the floor in the Killer Basement. Behaviour Interactive has also made a few UI tweaks and fixed several different collision issues, among several other needed changes following the Nic Cage patch. Hopefully, this gets everything ironed out as Behaviour looks forward to the upcoming Alien crossover.

Dead by Daylight is out now on PlayStation, mobile, Switch, Xbox, and PC platforms. You can view the full notes for the 7.1.2 hotfix below.
