One of the most important updates of Dead by Daylight went live less than 24 hours ago. Patch 6.7.1 doesn't bring any new content or major balancing changes, but it offers multiple important bug fixes. Almost all aspects of the game have been touched upon, including bots, characters, and audio.
Speaking of bots, their behavior in certain situations has been changed. One such change is that bots that are infected with The Mastermind's Uroboros Infection will no longer engage in tickle fights and try to heal each other with First Aid Sprays. Another bug fix resolved is when playing against The Dredge, bots are now more likely to lock lockers. Finally, bots playing on the Rancid Abattoir map will no longer infinitely vault a window when attempting to unhook themselves.
A portion of the patch notes is mentioned below.
Characters
- VFX issues no longer occur on The Oni during Intro Camera, Mori, and Score Screen.
- VFX issues no longer occur on The Ghost Face when swapping between Cosmetics.
- Smoke VFX no longer appears when switching between certain locked Cosmetics.
- When The Skull Merchant destroys a Pallet, the animation plays out as intended.
- Fixed an issue where, as The Spirit, vaulting from a high location and falling to the ground would cause her to jitter in the air instead of falling continuously.
- Hitting a Survivor with The Knight's Guardia Compania now correctly resets Play with Your Food tokens.
