they need to just allow modding

[ApeOfMazor]

modders would have this game balanced up with good perks and changes in no time at all i bet. i dont understand why it takes so long to buff bad perks. modders could do it in no time i bet.

modders are the ones who destroyed online mode in gta along with rdr online?

It's really not that simple. Modding depends on each player running the same mods to play together. With a large portion of the players being on console platforms, it makes it much more complicated. On top of that, it's just not necessary. Yes, some things in this game can be annoying balance-wise. However, I don't think it's nearly bad enough to go through such measures. It's not worth the downsides it'd come with.

Gta "modding" is just cheating with a different name. I believe he's referring to actual modding which requires users to be running the same version of the game. If you're unsure what I'm referring to. Check out Among Us or Town of Salem modded. They both require you to launch a different version to function and will only pair you with others with the same build.

Modding was a thing but then players modded like trapper's traps so they would be a bright colour, so bhvr decided to ban them

yes to clarify not cheating but changing things about the game, not to just give advantage but to create a fun experience. different game modes, balance changes, etc. and it would have to be custom lobbies only.

That is not how modding works.
You can't mod something in a multiplayer game that easily. It only works when everyone has the same mods. So matchmaking would be impossible, so only custom lobbies would work.

Example:
Have you ever played modded minecraft? Tried to play multiplayer? If the others don't have the exact same mods, they can't connect to you. Altered some values in mods but the others didn't? Could not connect anymore or game just crashes.
That is basically how modding works.

Edit:
Somehow missed the last sentence. Im tired...

No mods shouldn’t be allowed. You might as well as play roblox dbd if you want mods.

what the hell is roblox dbd? id just like to see what other people could cook up in terms of perks and balance through modding. modders always make such incredible things that improve on the game.

Yeah they would have it changed up real quick... To give them an advantage in game.


No.

[Voidlines]

Pretty good joke but you may need to let people know you're being sarcastic, it's hard to pick up on.

The only thing that would happen if they allowed modding would be more cheaters.

welp alright yall are just too stupid to understand or see what modders can do or read what im saying.

Quiet the opposite, you seem to severely misunderstand how mods work:
- Mods only change the game for you, not for others. If you install a mod that makes f.e. the Killer be colored in bright pink, the other Survivors still see the normal Killer if they dont have the same mods installed / enabled.
- Mods could very easily be used for cheating by f.e. making others easier to spot by coloring them brightly, and thats just one example among dozens.
- Creating mods that effect EVERYONE would require the devs to open the game (and possibly the servers) for everyone. Yeah no, that aint happening. Not to mention that even IF devs would want to do that, they would have to manually screen every mod to check whether or not it gives unfair advantages, double aint happening.
- And even if its costum lobbies only: That wouldnt be much help for the game in general since you would need to find very specific people for very specific mod-combinations. Pretty much no one besides groups that already play together would profit from that, which wouldnt justify the ammount of work that would be needed in order to implement that feature.
- And so on.

I dont mean to be rude, but you shouldnt call others "stupid" if the problem is based on your own lack of undestanding the topic. If anything, your suggestion seems to be more along the lines of something like a "community council" that helps the devs to balance the game.

there are games that have done this perfectly fine while maintaining the integrity of their normal game. you would just need segregation between the modes. again don't act like i don't know how mods work. second no a community council won't do anything because bhvr would never actually implement any changes a council would suggest or if they would it would not be timely.

Would you mind giving us some examples?

I mean, you started of with claiming that modders would be able to balance the game / implement good things, without any mention of it being limited to custom modes. And you further called others stupid for mentioning cheating / the possiblity of giving one side the advantage. How would you f.e. ensure that in a custom game the Killer didnt implement a "All Survivors shine in bright pink and are visible at all times" mod? Or that Survivors dint implement a "Killeraura is always visible" mod? Even if its just custom games (which, if i remember correctly, get managed by BHVR servers, meaning they would need to run the code of the mods), implying there wouldnt be cheating / advantages for one side involved is just unrealistic.

[Scarsick]

Lol, you have no idea what you're talking about. Mods are for cosmetic stuff or offline games.

guy isnt worth responding to and this thread will most likely be deleted just as soon as a Moderator sees how its being used
