At least 2 or 3 killers unplayable every patch, cosmetic bugs that take more than 3 months to fix, and several bugs with killers that have been in the game for more than 5 months. Ghostface's sound is bugged, Plague's vomit has been bugged for almost a year, Wesker has numerous collision bugs that make you lose a match, Houndmaster is bugged since her release and is still has dozens of bugs, and0 comments 71 views last activity

Do you guys know this pretty bad perk called Beast of Prey? The perk that gives you 40 seconds of Undetectable whenever you gain Bloodlust? Well in the upcoming Patch 9.3.0 Killers gain Bloodlust whenever they hook a new Survivor. So Beast of Prey activates all the time. Making every killer a stealth killer for 90% of the round. How does a mistake and overlook like this happen? In the gam5 comments 181 views last activity

Thought evil incarnet was an achievement I would never get but I got it before Myre's update but two I know I'll probably never get are Skilled Huntress: 1. I play on PS5 aka the only console that requires 100 hits from 24 meters away...I'm at 4 and also no idea what 24 meters is in the game as the game doesn't have score event saying hey you got a 24 meter away hit like Deathslinger has where t5 comments 82 views last activity

ima be real syringes werent even a problem…styptics yeah, but a 24s heal that can be cancelled by being forced into mend or being hit? hell nah. heck make it a 30s heal idc… but if i see someone pop a syringe mid chase, i try to get the down in 15s if not i leave and find someone in a more vulnerable situation i.e. the injured megalodon. and the reworked add ons seem even more problematic, like16 comments 261 views last activity

Like I don't care if perhaps the rift event tasks are the way they are or at the very least the seasonal events but 2v8 / chaos shuffle / mode modifiers AT LEAST need to have it's tasks not be time gated PLEASE. Much more enjoyable when you're not worried about completing the tasks because they unlock the week afterwards only to miss out because you forgot to continue the last like 2 quests you n0 comments 41 views last activity

When a survivor is unhooked they have zero collision with the killer and that’s removed once they perform a healing action or jump on a gen. That way everyone is happy. Untouchable to the killer like they want and they can’t abuse endurance to take a protection hit to annoy the killer. Thoughts ?6 comments 101 views last activity

So little 2v8 rant Me and my teammate got 3 hooks together and by that time four gens were done. As far as I can tell the gen speed penalty series does not exist since in 2v8 most gens are just 3 or 4 person gens meaning the penalty is extremely small or non-existent even as survivor I've had a match where maybe three or four hooks where done and we were down to two gens. The penalty doesn't exi5 comments 131 views last activity

So I don't like using the meta and have seen it work against a killer. Where they got to use pain res maybe twice and never again since using it to early means you have a wasted perk slot, to late and you might not get to full on use it. So I being Oppression since I can get maybe three gen kicks in one and have seen it work maybe not the skill checks but the regression has helped and dying light11 comments 281 views last activity

Hey everyone, maybe someone can explain this to me (I am not asking for a nerf just curios) but why does the shot of Deathslinger inflict deep wounds? Is his power seen so weak that it needs it? Because I have never seen a Slinger Player going for this like. Nice I got one better search for someone else I got enough out of my power because the survivor needs to mend.20 comments 432 views last activity

Hello everyone, in the last days I was scratching my head about the topic, how to fix the Tunneling problem in DBD. I was looking for 2 mayor points. How to get the Survivor out of the tunneling process. How to reward the killer or atleast don´t make the Anti Tunnel feature abusable. First of all I tried to think about "What is Tunneling for the mayority of the Survivors and Devs" and I6 comments 131 views last activity

From what I understand on pc when you report someone you can add some text to your report to explain the situation. I just went against a Dwight who could turn invisible and instantly heal himself and other. It'd be nice for console to have the same report features on console because I think guy may go undetected unless he's been getting reported in mass.0 comments 11 views last activity

As you may remember, Claudette is supposed to have a full cosmetic + recolours in the current Rift. However, her head piece was not included due to it not meeting standards and would be made available later. With no ETA at the time of that confirmation.

could this mean we get an announcement later today on a part 2 chapter? The last time Dead by Daylight posted about Stranger Things Day was 2 years ago and that was when the chapter came back.

Why should I be punished because the server crashed? I get DC penalties exist to basically punish those who actually DC but I was playing everything was going well till my game froze and I knew right away the server was about to crash and I was kicked to the main lobby. Yet I'm still punished because the game screwed up and I didn't DC so now I have to wait because of something out of my control.4 comments 41 views last activity

I play killer and survivor and its been said probably on here but these changes to styptics and syringes cannot go through. You can literally proc exhaustion perks several times in a row. Please revert these back to how they were. Maybe nerf syringes to where the healing takes a bit longer would be more fair to killers. Maybe 30 seconds? This is seriously a huge buff. lol Styptic agent is fine h10 comments 241 views last activity

BHVR got rid of the playstyle of camping a box to guarantee a kill. Now the Pig can just crouch behind you and you can't do anything about it. When your trap is active you are ######### no matter what. In my opinion a chase should start like normal, when the Pig is crouching, so there is at least some counter play. I don't want to get the Pig nerfed, since I also like to playing her, but his is18 comments 471 views last activity

With these changes the killer players are going to be pushed more towards Nurse Ghoul and Blight, killers that will hardly be punished and will not get any use out of the bloodlust buff when they can go faster by using their power anyway. The bloodlust is not even good enough for m1 killers and now your changing syringes to be able to give a free sprint burst or Lithe? Did m1 killers do something30 comments 631 views last activity

Dracula and Pyramid Head were added to this iteration of 2v8 and received drastically different levels of changes. Pyramid Head received very few changes that actually matter. Range is nice but almost everything else doesn't really make him all that much stronger. Recharge time literally doesn't matter.

What do you think about the next idea: Introduce a new type of generator kicking, lets call it "Charged Kick". At the start of the match, this kick is disabled. Once you hook teh first survivor, you need to hook another survivor. If you do this, the Charged Kick is enabled and some some generator damage bonus is stored (for example: 5%). Every time you hook a different survivor, new 5% bonus da28 comments 381 views last activity

Honestly what I think is the true problem is that the game doesn't have a proper tutorial to help teach players how to play the game The tutorial is extremely outdated and doesn't tech players how to get out of situations properly. All it shows is the basic buttons and what ur objective is and that is completely it. This game has so much stuff thrown in the players face which looking at it all5 comments 101 views last activity

Obviously, there are pros and cons to this idea, but it could help casual/new players get into the game while others have another option that is more competitive.23 comments 302 views last activity

please remove the dc penalty. If a killer or teammates are doing nothing to progress the game I think it’s safe to move on to the next game. I still think dc penalties are ridiculous given the recent killers I have gone up against have been complete asshats. It’s annoying. Fix your game, fix the balance, fix everything! I see why the numbers are dropping lmao8 comments 101 views last activity

BHVR! why are you making BALANCED perk that convices people to go for the obsession (different guy that was not hooked/unhooked) a stealth perk?

Match starts. Survivors split and work on 4 gens. One gets found and gets chased. At this point, from my observations, 3 gens almost always pop at the same time or very soon after the down Here, 1 survivor on hook, 3 free. If they just decide to crank a gen, and the next chased survivor can survive 90 seconds (or less depending on perks and time to travel) the other 2 gens can be popped and i27 comments 701 views last activity

One of the absolute worst ways to balance dbd, in regards to keeping new players and improving the experience of the AVERAGE player, would be to focus on feedback from players that are at the absolute height of the player skill set. Because their experience in the game on a daily basis is going to be miles away from what most players are going to be experiencing.

Currently, there isn't much that justifies Blighted Springtrap being Ascended rarity. When compared to a skin like Inoculated Xenomorph, another blighted skin, Springtrap's variation seems a little underwhelming. Aside from VFX and SFX and the arm on the abdomen, there isn't much to justify the cost. Maybe adding a voice filter could help to make it feel more unique, more deserving of ascended ra1 comments 151 views last activity

I may be going insane or delusional but arent the new quests more grindy since the last battle pass ? Daily quests jumped to 4, but the objectives got much harder (10 skill checks instead of 3) and now require 1-2 games. That in of itself is fine but i looked at the milestones and they changed the rift fragment amount on them ? Now each level gives exactly 25 fragments whereas before it was first2 comments 31 views last activity
