  • I'll start off with this note: I am not enjoying Dead by Daylight. But it's not what you think. Let me clarify, I enjoy Dead by Daylight, I find it really fun. It's a game based around self improvement and judgement making while utilising specific abilities to your advantage. It's a really well thought out game with a lot more potential to come but what I enjoy most is the community and friends

  • So for the second time in a row we got old rift/tome outfits in the store which is a nice thing. However just like last time all outfits are auric cells only. This is contrary to all other re-releases of old rift/tome outfits which were also available for shards. I really do hope that it's just a bug and not another monetization thing.

  • Not that I have anything against Thai people but I would prefer to play with people who speak English. For quite a long time now I only get matched with South East Asian players. It never used to be like this either, started happening around 6 months ago. Prior to this I would usually be matched with Eastern Australians and New Zealanders (English speaking). I've heard similar stories from othe

  • Hello, any other PS4 players experiencing flashlight malfunctions? Whenever I try to use a standard or utility flashlight with ad ons the beam points down to the ground instead of up where I instruct it to point. I saw some discussion about this last year but it seems to still be an issue now. Thanks!

  • I have been playing since September 2019, it's now May 2022 and I have finally gotten all the killers and all the survivors to Prestige 3 Level 50. I honestly thought this was going to take me into the summer and I'd still be grinding it out now, but it's finally complete. Time to collect the perks (and finally get some working builds on some of these kil

  • Ran on Console for most of my time playing this game, never had I achieved reaching max rank, swapped to PC and started playing nurse on a stable version of the game and rushed through to achieve it. What stopped me from being able to truly achieve objectives was nothing more than having no lag spikes every 5 seconds on top of kbm being smoother to use after awhile of practice, if you want to pla

  • Games have gotten much easier for high MMR players. I definitely still run up against teams who can beat me, especially late at night, but not every single game now is a sweat fest. The changes to matchmaking have definitely made the game more enjoyable for higher skilled players. I had quit for 3 months and now am back to playing on a daily basis. Overall, I'm pleased. I played 75 Le

  • Why have the devs not addressed this issue. I get that flashlights are part of the game. But flashlights need a cooldown. I’m honestly sick and tired of being blinded several times in a row within seconds. Most of the time I don’t even get a chance to look up or away, leaving me rigged for blinding, which isn’t fair. Survivors know this and they exploit it by blinding a killer in quick succession

  • TL;DR - Quality of games can start with the players, and how they choose to play and act. So stop being a bunch of tryhard, jerks to one another, and try to make the game as enjoyable as possible. Players are quitting steadily, and there's a ton of reasons for it. But the crappy playerbase with a poor attitude is the massive cherry on top. MMR is hidden, we don't get rewards for 'doing super good

  • I must have missed something, but searching for it has come up with nothing so I figure I'd ask. I was on new haddonfield against an Artist. I cleansed a dull totem in the basement of one of the houses and hid in a locker. The killer came by, channeled for a second at the destroyed totem, and it brought it back up and hexed. I came out of the locker and cleansed the hex, and the totem fully w

  • It looks like the map was disabled to fix a Survivor bug and not for a rework so I'm guessing the map will become available soon. Its my favorite map and I'm suffering withdrawals, lol.

  • We heard a lot about the invincible bots a while back. - But. Has anyone run into the opposite? Namely, an incredibly slowed down killer (just barely faster than crouch-speed) just following a default target trying to M1 them? I ask because friends and I came across a slo mo Nemo who was locked in on one survivor, was "chasing" them at snails speed and only reacted to very obvious things, lik

  • So I just got accused of Wall Hacking because the other side lacks Game Sense. Post Game Screen: At the end of the game I just slugged a meg. I then saw faint scratch marks at the bottom of the stairs. Based on this I then check the top of the stairs leading to the rooftop of the school as it's a common hi

  • I ran into hacker again and this time it was a P3 Meg. I couldn't injure her when I hit her, she just kept insta-healing. She was also lag-switching. She hid her hacks until the end of the game and I couldn't record because she left before I could. I'm just not trusting P3 players anymore.

  • May I ask, do the map programmers/bug fixers actually test the specific things they're doing? This is the same as the hook up RPD library where you could literally bodyblock the stairs, but this is even worse. Everybody does mistakes, but to forget about that you need not to have map knowledge, and how do you forget these things if as a developer you ca

  • Predator is a contender for the lamest killer perk in the game. I'm sure lots of you all have suggestions on what could be done to make it better. What should be done to make Predator a great choice for tracking survivors?

  • It's probably the number one complaint from the Killer side and rightfully so. There is no downside to this perk. It turns every chase into a 3 hit down. Hitting a skilled Survivor three times in a reasonable amount of time requires meta gaming on the Killer side or GG. It needs a sublte nerf, I've been thinking about "Broken" status until you go down. At least this way if the Killer does give u

  • So, in my four years of Dead by Daylight experience, it's usually a good time to take a break when you see this phrase: Engine Update. Historically, engine updates include more bugs than others. Typically, this means that multiple bug fix patches will be required to identify and address them all. If you're experiencing burnout or you're considering touc

  • We talk about this every update, bc it feels as though something pretty major breaks every time, and yet we still never see it. The place where this term comes from, operation health, is siege, where it worked wonders iirc. There are a lot of unintended mechanics that just feel terrible and have somehow become routine. Bumping into a pallet as billy without breaking it doesnt even faze me anymo

  • If the killer is in X radio of a hooked survivor (5 meters?) and another survivor is in Y radio (10 meters?)not working on a gen the timer stops and gens are blocked. This way all survs would know when a killer is facecamping and can do gens when the surv near the hooked surv decides to do gens also.

  • Something that isn't ground breaking like new perks or complex skins, just something you ever wanted but the likelihood of getting it is near zero. In my case, I'm a Quentin main and I always wanted more skins, but I know I'll never have one. So, what I truly wish for is a simple recolor. I would like Quentin to have a Red jacket instead of his blue one. I know, impossible, right? Hahaha. So!

  • You get send to Midwich by Survivor offering. You down you first Survivor, pick them up and then you see that another Survivor is allready there try to body block you and when you hit them they run to the closest hook ASAP and with toolbox start sabotaging it. Midwich has the worst hook spawn logic so if someones sabo one hook close to you, you are probably doomed. What do you do in these types

  • Is it just me that thinks iridescent shards are somewhat difficult to get? I started at the end of March 2022 and the gameplay felt really slow while I was trying to play the game to get my first 9000 shards, after I got my first 9000 shards I used them and it took forever to get another 9000. I know all you have to do is play the game and level up for shards but it takes to long to level up beca

  • I've never seen a game that has so many bugs in my life. Some of these bugs in this patch notes are literally basic programming knowledge and I'm just shaking my head thinking that these bugs should of never existed if they knew how to program a video game. The fact that they moved that big blob on the staircase that's supposed to solve the corner bug is now blocking hex totems. They're lazier th

  • The entity thrives off of suffering and hope. Killers have the job of inflicting suffering. Survivors have the job of creating hope. Killers don't get enough points for slugging and letting survivors bleed out. Lets fix that to be consistent with the lore. Increase the BP gain for a bleedout 10x. Being slugged the whole game sucks. Killers don't get enough points for dcs. A survivor who dc

  • Exhaustion is the only status effect in the game that is reliant on a survivor bringing an exhaustion perk for it to even effect them. If a survivor has no exhaustion perk, it literally does nothing to them. Isn’t this a design flaw? It would be one thing if exhaustion was only self-inflicted; but as we know, there’s a set of killer perks and add-ons that apply it to survivors as well. It does

  • Honestly, I think he was salty that I was running Left Behind and jumped his NOED ass instead of attempting to save the other last teammate who he was facecamping so close that any closer and there'd be a court case. Gotta find it funny when you run off meta and people still get pissed.

  • So I just got another killer to level 50 (the Artist) and thought I'd get to work on Nemesis (who I only had at level 22). Got into my first game, loaded in at Ormond and chased a David King around for about a minute and tried getting out my Tentacle Strike but nothing happened (no animation, no text prompt, nothing). As a result I resorted to just hitting him and then knocking him down with my
