  • Seriously, why all the bandades? why are you putting bandades on internal bleeding? I get it you don't want people to leave. you want to know how to prevent it? fix the issues. fix all the bad problems. and listen to your damn people. check your steam charts. stop panicing over your problems, and come up with a solution that is not a damn bandade. fix it. or your game will have a slow death.

  • This idea came to me in a dream that could flip things on its head, what if you had a killer that would flip things on its head and switch rolls, a killer that gains power from doing gens? so here gose The Spider is a humanoid spider like killer that in order to activate its power is to do gens or finish gens survivors are doing, able to trap these gens and finish them, caus

  • So hello again guys and this time I am back with another killer concept, with that killer being Godzilla. And please note that this is only just for fun, but with that out of the way lets begin. So lets go over some of his stats. Godzilla will have a 32 meter terror radius. Godzilla Will move at a 4.6/115% movement speed. Godzilla would be a Tall killer, but only being around 6-8 feet on thi

  • seriously its an end game perk doesn't help you early or mid game, and it can be easily countered by doing bones which can be revealed by Detective's hunch and Small game like honestly if i as a killer could cleanse a hex that gave survivors dead hard i would do it every game, screw killing survivors i will roam the whole map looking for it just so i can get one kill without having to deal wit

  • 23k, 21k, 19k and I get 13K????? #########!? I did 4 gens solo from start to finish that means no other survivor did the gens and I get punished for this bullcrap? Does this make any sense to y'all? Change the system ASAP!

  • Should I prestigate my characters or continue to update them when they reach level 50. I have so far prestigared my main killers and survivors to P3 but should I do the same to my other characters? Do I actually get more rare items that way?

  • I cant help but really want the left 4 dead cosmetics to be changed to legendary outfits. For free obviously since for whatever reason all dbd left 4 dead content is free. I really want Zoey in dbd not meg cosplaying her. Plus maybe we could get Coach for Jeff, Louis for Adam and Nick for Ace? What do you guys think about this idea?

  • My teammates seemed to want to have fun today. At least 3 randoms jumped into lockers for me to go for flashbang locker saves. A Jeff in particular did it when the doors were open and very little time remaining. I didn't see anyone being toxic to the killer or just being annoying in general which was a surprise. Towards the end of the night the lobbies took longer. The survivors and killers defi

Same question applies

  • I have played 5 games tonight far, 4 of which were farmers. I was also queued for like five minutes for all the games. Nobody wants to play a game where nobody actually plays. BHVR needs to do something about farmers, or else more people are gonna start quitting more than they already are. Not saying you need to ban farmers, but ruining 4 other peoples experience cause someone wants to AFK to be

  • This is all opinion. I've seen the issues people have brought up with the game and here is a stab at addressing them. The more drastic changes are listed first. (Targets Camping) - Divine Intervention Mechanic- When two survivors are downed/hooked for at least 20 seconds the divine object spawns randomly within the map away from survivors and furthest from the killer, cool down of 160 second

Like expected where many people crying and saying that it doesn't need a nerf. And that got me to thinking. It's been always the same. People demand that strong killers get nerfed like spirit for example. Now everyone is crying about nurse and trickster. A si

  • I had a Daily for the Shape, so I figured I’d take a crack at the Evil Incarnate achievement. First match I got to Tier 3 and had 2 dead with 2 gems still remaining. Wound up in a frustrating Tombstone stand-off with the remaining survivors that carried on for almost an hour (curse you, lockers!). Thankfully the next match was a whole lot easier, as you can see in the following video replay.

  • I don't know if others have had this problem, but I've been having a heck of time using these two perks together. I believe most players already know this, but here's how discordance works: when 2 or more survivors are working on a gen and the killer has that perk, the gen's aura will light up in yellow, revealing its location within a 128 meters. Again, I believe most players already know thi

  • RPD sucks, it is beautiful but so can any map be if it is reworked, and even then having a beautiful map means nothing when it sucks gameplay wise. 1) Some people have more lag problems on this map. 2) To be able to have fun on this map, you have to learn it, otherwise you will just be in a crap maze that is boring. You can either learn it as you play it and get tons of crap matches in which yo

Also if you can, explain your misunderstanding too, so future people who will read it, may get a chance to learn something new. I'll start: I got accused of cheats, because when playing Doctor, I found multiple people hiding in lockers that my i

  • Well first of all I want to thank all the devs and game designers but I think there's a missing mode in DbD and that's "Free mode" or "Demo mode" where good things could happen for all players. This mode should let all players to practice and expereince every possible thing without any kind balance or rewards, yeah you heard me right. For example I play as a killer most of the times and I

  • Hey all, I recently decided to return to DBD after a fairly long hiatus. I got really burnt out on the game early last year and hadn't really played much until yesterday/today. My experience has been...well, awful. My survivor games have gone fine. Fairly average, I escape some, die others. My killer games though? They feel entirely unbalanced. I've not managed to get more than a 1k in my

  • I think its obvious that the meta is stale for both sides, survivors have like 6-7 perks to go around killers have more range but it basically boils down to noed and slowdown and the only real way to fix this is to just absolutely stomp all the top perks into the ground and bring everything (excluding fun/memey perks) to a more middle level including addons and items but that's a different discus

  • I was playing a custom match with my friends and then my friend was guarding the jigsaw box. It was a horrifying experience and literally I know why that they had a add-on so they can let other survivors suffer. I just know that AFK Pigs won't let you get in the jigsaw box for a reason and then that add-on just makes it even more worse. The matter of the fact that it can be a joke or they jus

  • Title. Now I'm fine with these things when they aren't at every loop, but, for example, Dead Dawg Saloon, I find myself breaking so many of these things to make some loops more bearable for the m1 killers I play. I feel like I spend so much time breaking these doors that I'm actually losing pressure, which, to be fair, I could just play a better killer with better perks, all of that stuff. Thin

  • Title. For me, it'd have to be Hex: Pentimento. I recently decided to use it together with Hex: Ruin and Hex: Undying and holy. It puts Survivors in a big lose/lose scenario. Either deal with Hex: Ruin, which is a pain on Artist, or go out of your way to cleanse 2 Totems, only for them to become Rekindled Totems and now you repairing and healing 30% slower. It doesn't last the whole Tria

  • I cant believe there is so many people that complain about this killer when he is so bad of a killer. He has nothing but chase and defence. His defence is even limited by stuff like bt, dead hard adrenaline that waste too many blades in which he ends up not having enough then his chase power is not nearly as good as you people say it is. i will say it does shred in the open but so do a lot of kil

  • I've seen quite a lot of people calling Save The Best For Last " Demogorgon's Best Perk ", and I don't get it. I have a few theories about why it's such a popular choice on him: Stacks are easy to maintain thanks to Shred It allows for a 1-2 combo (M1 --> Shred) People have seen popular streamers use it on him The Perk feels good to use I get why Save The Best For Last could be

  • Circle of Healing cannot be balanced in its current state because it's too efficient for one perk slot to provide self healing to the whole team. The issue isn't the Boon mechanic. All the other Boons are balanced or underpowered. In fact, I think that boons could have their range increased back to 28 meters once COH is taken care of. Circle of Healing should have self healing removed, boost

  • I never thought I was gonna find as toxic community as it was in dota, but after playing dbd for a few months, I must say, people playing it, especially survivors are so toxic and childish that makes every 2nd game pathetic no matter the outcome. Like I am playing the killer in the nicest way possible, not camping, tunneling, letting them unhook etc and what I get in return are tea bags, flash cl

  • (Almost 700k hours killer main here) So i decided to switch from killer main to survivor main for a week and dbd has been much fun lately. My heart isn't pounding through my chest from the stress of playing killer, 4 people aren't taunting me, i'm not irritated of the second chances survivors get, it's been a much chill experience. Hell even losing as survivor is fun, cuz atleast i don't get 4 pe

  • The thing is, you get almost no emblem points when downing someone with a one-shotting power like a chainsaw or oni's dash and sometimes only black-pipping or even depipping. Getting punished for using the killers power really feels off and I think this is something that should get fixed / overworked.

  • Is there any way to get around being trapped by a killer?? I don’t want a dc penalty or to lose points/pips, but it’s the end game and everyone is dead, and so the timer won’t start. He’s sandbagging me and I can’t go anywhere. I have like four crows. So annoying

  • Sure, ‘if it glows it goes’ has long been the mantra, but with the risk of Haunted Grounds, Retribution and Pentimento in a killer’s arsenal, is it wise to actually break hex totems before the game has informed you of any effects? Obviously if you see the likes of Ruin, Huntress’s Lullaby or Blood Favor in play you’ll want to start cleansing, but Devour is the only hex that can really be a game-

  • There is definitely an issue going on with the current MMR. I played survivor all day cause I wanna reach iri1 (soloq only). I kept getting decent teammates and killers all day long until 8pm CEST then it starts going downhill fast. My teammates are WAY below mine and the killers skill level. Which results in: A) I am the only one doing gens B) If I get hooked, no one will come unhook C) I ha

  • Does anyone know why is dragon's grip cooldown so long!? 80 seconds is ridiculous for it to only affect one gen at a time. This even isnt including the first 30s after kicking the gen, the cooldown doesnt even start then. It wont start until either the first 30s past or a survivor touches the gen, so you could have a total maximum of 110 second cooldown f

  • Ruin, Undying, Dead Man's Switch, Deadlock, Pain Resonance, No Way Out, Corrupt and Jolt are all viable right now depending on the Killer and the build. We probably have the most variety in the Killer perk meta in years right now. More people should acknowledge this because its pretty rare that the Devs actually balance perks so there's competition between them.

  • Yes, he is not objectively the killer with the highest kill rate. But he is the only killer where if he gets you, and wants you dead, you stay dead. No t-bagging flashlighters, no bodyblockers, no trolling midfield with the exit gates open because you know the sprint will get you to the gates- the saw wins all those debates. As a survivor, you are always one tiny mistake or piece of bad luck a

  • While I don't think this is at all a high priority or even on the radar of the dev team, I just wanted to hear everyone's opinion on this item. It's a good item, it's strong and it's generally balanced to a degree. Does it need any changes at all? Should it be used in the Dying State? Should you not leave blood trails while it heals you? Should it not be an activated item that consumes
