[2021] Infinite Loading

Hey! I highly recommend visiting this thread and giving all the information that's being asked for! https://forum.deadbydaylight.com/en/discussion/288817/infinite-loading-screens/p1

We have seen this behavior with a small percentage of players and are actively working on a fix we hope to roll out early this week. While not idea, the entire purpose of this Early Preview was to solve these issues before full launch. Stay tuned to here, our socials and discord for when the update is out.

Currently if you delete your saves and try again, you may have luck.

Okay I cannot find the save file location to save my life. Do you happen to know where it is?

Ah, I don't even have a save file cause I can't get passed choosing a character for the first time. So I guess I'm just SOL until you guys fix it...

This has been identified as a permissions error. The game is not able to write to your user directory. I would suggest 1. Repairing permissions and/or 2. Set the game to run as admin automatically.
