Dead by Daylight (DBD) update 1.64 is now available for PlayStation 4 players. According to the official Dead by Daylight 1.64 patch notes, the new update comes with various bug fixes and gameplay improvements. Apart from this, Dead by Daylight version 1.64 also includes stability and performance improvements.
Previously, a big update was released with a new Killer (The Ghost Face) as well as added the ability to rotate characters in the lobby, new menu, lobby music and more. Unfortunately, since the last update, many players are experiencing a number of issues when trying to play the game. Today’s Dead by Daylight patch 1.64 is expected to fix all these issues.
Dead by Daylight (DBD) update 1.64 Patch Notes
BALANCE
- Removed the stun VFX when Killers entered stun state.
- Reduced the camera shake on successful hits.
The Ghost Face:
- Stalk rate add-ons: Telephoto Lens (-0.5 sec to -0.25 sec), Night Vision Monocular (-1.0 sec to -0.75 sec) are slightly reduced.
- Pallet stuns will now break Ghost Face out of stealth. (Bug fix: to make him standard to our other killers; Legion, Plague)
- Marked Survivors may no longer be stalked. (Bug fix:This was a planned change that was omitted in the 2nd PTB patch. We increased the Mark lasting time from 20 sec to 45 sec, but we wanted to remove his ability to keep Stalking a Mark Survivor to balance that change.)
- Killer Instinct base duration slightly increased. (1.5 to 2 sec)
- Killer Instinct add-on (Marked Map 0.5 to 1 sec, Victim’s Detailed Routine 1 sec to 1.5 sec) duration slightly increased.
- Detection area of the screen slightly increased for Survivors attempting to reveal Ghost Face. (Slightly enlarged by 4% on each side of the screen, for a total of 8%) While in a chase, the Killer was harder than expected to break out of his Power, we didn’t want to alter the current timers so we decided to slightly enlarge the Detection Area on screen to help out.)
