  • Killswitch perks for 1 week. Just 1 week is all I ask. Let's see how balanced the game really is without the 20+ band-aid fix/second chance perks that exist in this game. Please BHVR, I'm so tired of seeing dead hard, bt, and DS **EVERY SINGLE GAME**.

  • So all iv seen lately is killers are tunneling and camping because boon healing is too strong etc, even with the buffed legion they are still resulting to really annoying games you just don't want to play.

  • This achievement is almost impossible to complete for now. It was created when so many things were completely different, especially collapse mechanic. Question to the devs: are there plans to change this achievement?

  • Firstly: I respect BHVR's efforts to include representation in the game and the reasoning behind ensuring their first character was free for everyone. So this isn't really a criticism so much as a broader question/discussion on the way these things are implemented in stories with unique narrative formats like Dead By Daylight. Normally, if a story lacks representation, it's glaring. The romance

  • I really don't get it at this point. Was this intended? Or did they just break the game again? Just why?? It's 2022 why are we even talking about forced anti-aliasing. Now the game looks like garbage. And don't even get me started on the frame drops. I mean after years of playing DbD I've come to expect the game to break in mysterious ways after every patch but come on! Oh well, I don't know wh

  • Is this affecting everyone or is it just me? Adding lines there doesn't change anything. Actually, game removes those lines if you add them there. In case someone comes here and says "Make file 'Read Only'", it doesn't help. Edit: [/script/engine.GarbageCollectionSettings] didn't work for me.

  • I've played 3 matches today and 2 of them I've ended up having to dc because I get stuck in place doing an action, and the third one my power stopped being usable (deathslinger) then the game crashed at the end of the match. I'm curious if god hates me today or if there's others experiencing this.

  • Looking at the tomes Tome 1 had 10 master and 11 simple challenges. Tome 2 had 11 master and 11 simple challenges. Tome 3 had 11 master and 13 simple challenges But then tome 4 has 9 master and 11 simple challenges, 16 rift shards less than tome 3. i know this may not be alot but thats going to cost people even more time on the game that people may not have. So does anyone have anything to

  • I was suffering from a bit of lag lately depending on the time I played, but today it's extremely laggy in a way that makes the game unplayable. I keep suffering rollbacks and getting my hits validated, that if I ever manage to get near a survivor without rolling back first. There's also stuttering, and I even got stuck in place for a whole match after I lagged a bit while breaking a pallet, some

  • Is it just me (and it very well might be, I'm not just saying that), or is looping no longer a thing? All the survivors I face these days just run from pallet to pallet pre throwing them and running to the next one. Even with brutal strength by the time I break the pallet, they made it to the next one, before you know it, all the gens are done, and there are STILL MORE PALLETS on the map someh

  • I played more than 8 games yesterday after the new patch came out and idk. It doesn't seem any different than before. It's still frustrating to play survivor. To be fair, I haven't played killer yet. But so far survivor is as angering as ever. All 8 games I played were either; sweaty af, or so even that it was a struggle for either side to win. Which is cool that its even, but it still feels a li

  • I've not played since before the new MMR. I came back today and had games switching from annoying to hard. It's probably better than getting only hard games during the first half of the night so ... yay? The one thing I've notice though is that in a lobby one survivor was way less experienced than me and his friends (He was around 70 hours, his friends in the thousands.) Bad luck, I thought

  • So I played as Legion to test out their new power and almost every match there's at least one DC. And this is usually on a survivor's first down. The same happens when I play against Legion. I get seeing the same killer every match is boring (As a lot of players have been playing Legion), but that's no reason to DC and screw your teammates over.

  • With the "Needle & Thread" and "Surgical Suture" add-ons, I know the speeds bonus stacks, but do the bloodpoint bonuses stack? Needle & Thread is supposed to give you 100% extra on great skill checks, and Surgical Suture is supposed to give you 150%.....so does it stack to 250%, or does it just use the highest add-on number, so only 150%?

  • Mouse and Keyboard compatability for consoles simple as that. When cross platform happened the amount of survivors increased exponentially, but not Killers because Killer using a controller is stupidly awkward. I use PS4 and PC and play both roles on both platforms, and console killer makes me want to shoot myself in the face, but I love killer on PC, the main reason without equal is I can u

  • Hi! Just in the market for a new pair of wired headphones, as my current ones are pretty... Questionable for gaming purposes. Like, they're VERY good for a pair I scavenged out of the draw (and were free in the first place) but they rarely pick up on audio that comes from behind me in game. So I was wondering what headphones you recommend? Thanks in advance!

  • Here's a simple thing to think about - you CANNOT lose a grade,compared to a rank. Thus making a test late in the Grade season allows everyone to slowly flow up regardless of their real pip tally up because you cant lose a grade. Hence it being much worse than old ranked. Please reconsider.

  • It gets a little old, having killers, their perks, or their powers get nerfed or have a mass of suggestions calling for their nerfing. A lot of what people say is "X is too strong. It needs a drawback." First of all, a lot of stuff already has drawbacks. Pop has a measly 45 seconds to be used, and Adrenaline Vial massively reduces your turn rate. But those aren't enough in people's eyes; no, the

The second was someone whom I couldn't grab from a locker. They would come out, hop back in when chased, and I couldn't grab them at all. I stood right by the locker in EGC so the EGC could get them but, n
