Player Experience Highlights
Community Insight:
Great game, 5 stars, but WHY is the mute system so strict. First we got a month mute, then 3 one day mutes within the past week. And we didnt even play the game for half of it. Its like Im getting muted for saying nothing. Please tone down the mute system a little.
We honestly think that the game is pretty good but we dont have the money for the echos. And we seen so many characters that we like but it costs puzzle pieces or echoes. We honestly think that people who have a streak for the game should have 20 each day they log in straight. When they lose the streak we think they should have the gardener say its okay and regain their streak and we dont have money again. What we like we like how that the characters are so cute and have their own abilities and what they can do. Like the little girl she can teleport any where to team mates. Or like the prisoner who can shock the hunter. We also like the coordinator who can shoot the hunter and can shock them for a couple seconds. But we love IDV for life thanks.
It's a good gameI love it and l love thetooBut l think some clothes are expensive.
This game is good but not dead by daylight good if we were identidy v we would add better graphics, add more scary items, have events where you get free echos, longer crossovers, more character customization, more diverse characters ( like enchantress), make little girl actually little, smoother animations, better animations, bring back the horror, Give FURRYMAN2 miu irumra from the Dangonropa v3 crossover made for toy merchant, pls its been 3 times and the only thing we have to prove of it is some like stickers a emote and rantaro and like 4 pfp PLS Ive spent over 150 on this.
Pleas NE buff Violleta Reduced web cooldown.
Im trying put a girl name but all the girls name is taking and all the boys name we literally cant find name because all the names are gone and we cant play the game because of the name thing please fix that because.
Ive been playing this game since 2021 but lost our account and came back in 2023 and we love the game but our only issue is that echos are really expensive.
OK, so we like this game its just that it can get a little boring because like we dont know Im a newbie so like we dont really understand what to do Can someone make like a review on what to do but other than that its really fun.
We have play this game for years, and the American account we have three, mainly all over sixth month, but while we try to open the new update, it do not let us go in that says we can not play the America and Asia account because our location was incorrect but we are currently located in America.
This game would do so much better if console release as well.
Just as the title says lol, ive only been playing for abt a week now and im inloveee, Ive downloaded it in the past but we wasnt feeling it, now we think we were probably too young to grasp it, but overall, the storyline is soo interesting and fun, the people are lovely, js make sure you have good storage cz alot of downloading is required to experience the gameplay in its fullest, deff recommend.
This games is fun, like really fun but one thing we dont like is how predictable games turn out for instance a certain hunter one their best map can always win no matter what and in matches your almost guaranteed a tie. One other thing we dont like is the monetization, NetEase has a thing for overpricing everything and we genuinely love the IDV skin but 30$ can even get you a S tier which is just wrong, but the pretty skins with so much design make you spend a buck or two which is really sad, but overall 10/10 game.
This game is amazing Ive quite literally made more friends on here than any other game the only thing we want from the game itself is gift cards. We feel like if gift cards were a thing in this game Id constantly be buying them. And it would be really helpful for young audiences people who have to ask their parents to buy something with their card for the game, thats like the only thing we recommend adding globally :D.
Our besties bf got hit our a tram it was really funny we love this game sm.
Everything is very cute maps ,and very adorable skins and accessories good graphics doesnt lag that much and hope we later get compasso on COA cant wait for other updates.
Im gonna return to this game after years that go back to when we played on our dads phone. This game is a classic.
Amazing game . The skins are jaw dropping and the gameplay is more or less smooth . Hunter to survivor ratio is pretty balanced with it being slightly hunter sided . Only problem we have is the greed . This game is the biggest money grab Ive seen and tends to get pricey . Other than that this game is amazing we recommend.
The first time we join this game we always loved but the next day its making us download and it just keeps on saying download fail so we dont know whats happening.
Ive been playing this game on and off since season 3. Give mercenary his old steel will please.
The game is very laggy please fix this issue like genuinely we WANNA PLAY SO BAD BUT ITS SO LAGGY Fix the lag issues in other countries we beg.
We like this game a lot we mostly play with friends regularly, the only thing we have to say bad about this game is the campers. If campers werent a thing this review would be a five star. Identity V should honestly put something where if the camper is at a certain spot while a player is in distance the players timer stops. Because Ive lost so many games with campers and its incredibly annoying, especially since campers dont even do anything but camp.
Nerf him, and his hitbox. He ruined this game for us bc of how unfun he is too play against. Please read this and read with your hearts not your brain bc if you look at surv mains like us when you say Joseph they will be miserable to go up against him.
We love love this game but it definitely needs controller compatibility . The game is top tier, all it is missing is the capability to play with a controller . Please consider. Anybody else agree? Should definitely comment.
Ive been playing this game going on 6 years! It never gets boring with that the game modes and events! The younger community can be toxic but just stay away from the new gen and youll have a great time.
Add Russian localization to the game, please.
We prefer to play on computer but this game is great on all platforms, our only complaint is that gacha system, but if the item we want isnt limited we can buy it later without spending any money.
We had an 8s kite as composer nerf mechanic.
This game is amazing. It is really fun to play with friends or others.
HELLO!! We LOVE YOUR GAME BUT we HAVE 2 FRIENDS THAT HAVE LITERALLY SHOWED ME THAT THEY CANNOT DOWNLOAD YOUR GAME AND IM JUST WONDERFUL HOW MANY MORE PEOPLE ARE EXPERIENCING THIS?? AND WHEN WILL THIS BE FIGURED OUT.
We love this game it always makes us feel better after a hard day. Though it is very killer sided because its annoying when the killers just get to camp the whole time and theres no restriction to it. Especially in ranked matches, its really hard to win as survivors if the hunter is just gonna camp the whole time. We think a good detail to add would be that when the hunter is near the area the rocket chair bar doesnt go down or the countdown is slowed down. Also because its impossible to go more than 2 seconds being set free without being caught again and dying immediately. A lot of the times the survivors die so quickly and unfairly.
Its a fun game if you dont consider the mean people and rank.
We really like the game, the characters, the gameplay but Im sooo disappointed that the game doesnt have a bloom setting for the graphics. We genuinely cant play the game because of this one problem that we with it. Please just add and make it optional because some people that Ive talked to didnt really care if the game had it or not.
The game is cool but the issue we have is how hunter are able to just camp and as a survivor theres absolutely nothing we can do to help its not fun there should be a circle hunters arent allowed to be in if not the countdown for survivors on the chair wont go down like DBD they just catch a survivor and sit next to them all game its always a tie and its not fun.
The hunters can barely move without stopping, getting stuck, or running into walls, every time we hit a player, the hunter HAS to gloat, and we cant move when they do so so we cant chase after the wounded players. Also we finished ashes of memory chapter 2 and the hullabaloo thing and now we cant play the story despite us really liking the story, cuz it was the only thing that didnt lag. Idk if this is just a us problem but PLEASE we spent all day downloading assets for the game, and we had high hopes for it, please fix this or tell us how to do fix it.
Its an amazing game, really fun but the reward system is terrible. Everything is overpriced and there is no guarantee youre gonna get the skin you want unless you spend at least $300.
Crashed a few times after first install. Crashes after first skill check during tutorial. Ive reinstalled twice on an iPad 7. Cant get complete the initial tutorial. We completely removed the app from our iPad. Downloaded the game as an alternative to Dead By Daylight mobile, which had no issues on our iPad 7.
Since joining in 2020, Ive made so many friends, used it as a coping mechanism through hard times in life, and enjoyed everything the game has to offer. Only thing we would improve is having more new content like new maps and also being less greedy/stingy with the skins. Skins add so much life and excitement to the game but they are so expensive compared to other games. Add more of a pity system please we beg.
Oh lord, please delete the full client that requires you to download EVERYTHING and we mean everything. Ill tell you we had to fall asleep to download the entire client just let players download the game fully with resources without having to wait one hour for the game core files.
Love the soundtrack, graphics, story, and creepy atmosphere.
This game is nice! We really like the characters & gameplay,and THE COSTUMES WHERE DO we BEGIN. We like how all the costumes,even the re-colored ones have an interesting description and some of the costume designs for some characters are so detailed,whoever makes these good job to them! One last thing,we know this review most likely wont get responded to but if you can try responding thank you,also happy thanksgiving.
Its really good we give it 5 stars because its family friendly and we get to play with our closest family members and closest friends too us. We play this game a lot with our sister we are obsessed with this good game.
The community is much more commonly toxic, so don't be surprised to run into toxic people. Yes, camping is normalized. Yes, getting spammed in post match for throwing a game is normalized (regardless if it's rank or quick mach.) also the ping on NA/EU servers are known to disappoint every once in a while. Overall, the skins are super cute!! And once you drop money, there's no going back. It's endless. But somewhat worth the rabbit hole…anyway, yes we love this game and get it if you are interested in any way shape or form.
This game is so fun im becoming addicted but its so hard.
Literally best game ever. We love playing both hunter and survivor and the lore is so interesting as well. Also the skins everything ab this game is perfect.
We just started but we think this game is SUPA EPICLY FUN.
Very fun and entertaining. Its great if you like playing flee the facility on roblox! Its like that but levels up.
This home building simulator is so fun! Our daughter loves this character with the bandana on his eyes. Thank you, for making such a wholesome game about petting owls.
