|
| Due date: | |
| Reported for: | |
| Actual Result: |
Every time I launch or restart the game, my customized aura colours and chat wheel settings reset, Anonymous Mode always On. I have to manually configure them again after every restart.
|
| Expected Result: |
My customized aura colours and chat wheel settings and anonymous mode should be saved automatically and remain unchanged between game sessions, even after closing and restarting the game.
|
| Severity: |
Minor
|
| Reproducibility: |
Always
|
| Platform: |
Steam
|
| Additional Notes & Comments: |
This issue occurs consistently and makes the customization system frustrating to use. Having to manually restore my preferred aura colours and chat wheel settings and anonymous mode after every restart is unnecessary. Please investigate why these settings are not being saved correctly and provide a permanent fix.

Steps to Reproduce
- Launch Dead by Daylight through Steam.
- Customize the aura colours and chat wheel settings.
- Close and restart the game.
- Return to the customization settings.
- Observe that the previous settings have not been retained.
Explanation
Dead by Daylight does not save my Anonymous Mode, customized aura colours and chat wheel settings properly. Every time I close and relaunch the game, or even restart it, I am forced to configure these settings all over again. I should not have to redo my personal settings every single time I want to play the game. Customization options are supposed to stay saved between sessions, not reset whenever the game is restarted.
The aura colour settings are particularly frustrating because I have to change them again to ensure I do not appear anonymous. On top of that, I have to rebuild my chat wheel settings every time, which makes the entire customization system feel unreliable and pointless. This is not a one-time inconvenience. It happens every time I restart the game.
All customized aura colours and chat wheel settings should be saved correctly and remain unchanged between game sessions. But both the aura colour settings and chat wheel settings reset after restarting the game, forcing me to repeat the same setup process over and over again. And Anonymous Mode is always On when I want it Off.
I would appreciate a proper investigation into why these settings are not being saved, rather than having to work around the same issue every time I play.
Please address this issue and ensure that customized settings persist correctly between sessions. Having to repeatedly redo settings that should be saved automatically is an unnecessary and avoidable source of frustration.
