  • Trying to pip up past gold as solo is like punching yourself in the coin purse. I've had teams literally just leave me on hook, absent any camping, after I ran the killer for a lap and half of the map and they did 3 gens. It's way too easy to depip as a survivor compared to killer if you aren't able to both do a goodly amount of gens and unhook/heal folks. The 'distraction' bonus you get feels

  • i would love to see a "cinematic" or "minimalist" option for the hud to just literally take everything off your screen except maybe the charge bar for gens or something like billys chainsaw

  • The amount of toxicity this game player base has is incredible, even trying to practice new killer is a nightmare game and post game chat wise so isn't mmr supposed to be separated for different killers? but even in a brand new killer it's similar to my usual matches.

  • Title. This is the only perk in the game that literally does nothing on its own. That is a very bad perk design. What if it also showed your aura to other survivors within a 32m radius while in chase? Or conversely, their auras to you in their close chases?

  • He was writing at a screenshot I made in dbd like weeks ago. I didnt even know I had screenshot comments on public xD Small info about this guy. I played pyramid head and caged someone, the guy (Jake) ran straight to that caged survivor and I ofc followed him. I rdy up the power and he literally farmed that survivor of the cage and both died immediately.

  • This ######### is so ######### annoying. It makes absolutly zero sence tha t a little midget can block a non human beeing that casually breaks pallets and wooden doors with zero effort. The Killer shpuld be able to push the survivor aside without even realising that a survivor is in his way. Why does the entity enhance there physical capabilities if there is no possibility to push survivors aside

  • I play DbD now for 1,5 Years and i hold up round about 900 hours which means meanwhile i know a little bit about DbD. As the header says its about balance problems not about cheaters this time ;) SWF is as we say in germany blessing and curse at the same time. It attracts many players who wish to play in groups with their friends but at the same time it makes it nearly impossible to balance DbD

  • I'm not a Dead Hard main (I have a different build on each of my survivors, but only two of them use Dead Hard). ---- Dead Hard mains, would you trade the distance aspect of Dead Hard for the injured requirement being removed? Can you get free distance to make the loop you greeded? No. Can you tank a hit while Exposed? Yes.

  • Killers, I'm doing you a favor and running an anti-totem build. If you want to stop me, I will give up on hook, move on, and you can deal with CoH yourself.

  • DBD was more fun, when hatch could spawn midgame and survivors could leave game with key. So it was a more thrilling feeling, when you were left alone in the game and other survivors left you there alone to die. It gives more like a horror atmosphere. Now hatch is boring, it only spawns when you're the last survivor in game. Pls revert it, that hatch can spawn earlier.

  • Title. I'd love a Myers rework/overhaul since he's so weak but also needs changes (Stuff like 99ing) but those shouldn't be changed while he's in his current state. So personally I'd want him up next but Im fine with whoever is next tbh. So devs can we have a sneak at whos next for big changes?

  • I am wondering what peoples favorite actions are as killer or as survivor. As Killer: I love when I down someone after the exit gates are already open and they are the last one left. I will start walking to the hook then turn around and drop them at the exit. As Survivor: Hitting a power struggle. One of the worst perks, generally requiring flip flop and tenacity to make it usable. but when

  • There have been plenty of times where I'd get revealed by someone I can't see only to find out they were completely hidden behind a big rock or something. I don't think that's supposed to happen? It's even worse when I can see the top of someone's head over a short loop and I can't stalk them but they can break me out of my power which I just don't think is fair. Ghost Face has enough of a disadv

  • Newcomer mode is basicly a "smaller" version of the base game where there are only a set of few maps playable (Maybe the 3 main realms Mac Millain, Coldwind and Autoheaven). And only ppl with a certain Level are able to play on it, as soon as you reach a specific account level lets say Devotion 1 then you cannot play it anymore. A friend of mine bought dbd last week and me and my friends tried t

  • Here is my idea to reduce the game grind. This is predicated on the following: BHvR doesn't want to remove perk tiers. This will reduce the Skinners Box mentality found in the Blood Web. Reducing player's desire to play is not financially sound for BHvR so it makes no sense for them to do this. A generic perk shop could be opened and players could purchase perks from this shop instead of the R

  • So I had a game yesterday playing as Sadako and I managed to save a really strong 4 gen (yes 4) with my ruin in the middle. I could literally see 3 of the gens and my ruin from a hill and the other gen was not too far either. The remaining 2 survivors decided to hide and do nothing for maybe 10 minutes. I don't know if you've played as Sadako but she has the POV of a small turtle and even though

  • When I'm not trying to learn survivor these days, I've been experimenting with some really wacky but still somewhat effective builds on killers. Probably my favorite has to be Nemesis with Plaything, Call of Brine, Discordance and Tinkerer - using Ink Ribbon and Shattered Badge. Ultra fast zombies plus constant loud noise notifications on gens, plus me being frequently undetectable...it was pa

  • Whenever I play killer I feel as if the noise survivors make when running throughout lots of doorways or behind objects is inaccurate. It especially sucks when playing spirit since you need to rely on sound to do well. With spirit in particular it feels very inaccurate, especially on indoor maps like lerys. Survivors sound close when they aren't, and other times they sound far away when I am li

  • Getting close to rank reset in a few days and I seem to be unable to gain a lot of pips, where I’m only safety pipping instead. In your opinion who do you think is the easiest killer to help pip up to Iridescent 1 the fastest? Or what’s your go-to method to help you in pipping up?

  • Wow. I finally got around to unlocking DMS, and the difference even against SWFs is night and day. I didn't think about the information gathering potential of DMS beyond the gen that blows, but you can tell exactly when a spine chill guy gets off the other gens. Most of the groups I faced were smart enough to get off the gen before I hooked, but Wraith is fast enough to check half the map and

  • Hey Guys, Hope everyone is well and safe. Quick one for extra content being placed into the game how would one feel about a FPS view point for Survivors? It would give a new meaning to the word Terror! Event if it was a limited time event mode. Could be fun I for one would be down. What's your opinion? Would you be down?

  • Wow, it seems like it was even in another life due to the time that passed. For new players, you probably don't know this but toolboxes were a very strong item a long time ago, many of you might think toolboxes are a MEH item but that's because you haven't seen their golden age. For those who don't know, old toolboxes used to have many, MANY charges as well as your addons. For you to have an i

  • Am I supposed to roll out a red carpet and stand + salute a survivor that has BT cover when they are saved from the hook during EGC? Had a survivor hooked just inside the doorway of Lery's, I chased a survivor out to the exit gates in demon dash, landing a hit near the edge, which she managed to squirm over the line, meanwhile the hooked survivor who was macroflashing all game gets saved and runs

  • I literally went in with the mindset of "Well I'm going to farm stacks and then die because solo Q" and STILL can't even get a real match. We load into "The Game", the most survivor sided map in DBD, and I am the one chased first. And my team...mass DC's before I even take a hit? The match was over within under a minute. The hatch spawned right next t

  • Play a match as a killer with a similar power or theme to another, but use: A) only their personal perks. B) a build that replicates their power or C) a lore accurate build. for example, playing legion using stealth perks to play as "ersatz ghostface". bonus points if you replicate the original killer's visuals slightly using cosmetics. as per usual, please share how your match went!

  • The MMR system has had its fair share of problems, which I'm sure all of us know about. However, I think that there's one very big problem with it that the developers can't exactly fix. The problem, simply put, is that it exists. It's no secret that at higher MMR the game becomes stale. Blight and Nurse games are commonplace, and usually accompanied by meta perks like Ruin, Tinkerer, Undying, a

  • And how so many killers could be 100x better for the game with miniscule number/gameplay tweaks? Trapper: Traps spawn closer to the centre of the map Wraith: 1.25s uncloak boost (pls BHVR bring it back) Billy: Faster cool down on over heat Slinger: 0.3s ADS and wardens keys built in (not biased) Spirit: MDR nerf, charge time and cooldown reduction Artist: Increased repel time, decreased co

  • I've been playing killer all morning and I seriously don't get it. I was using NOED and had bloodlust 3 and couldn't hit a survivor over a pallet. He ran around one of the weakest pallets in the game for ages because he was just faster than me and I couldn't hit him over the pallet at all. Then I went into a game where I was tier 3 Myers and couldn't ever hit a single survivor around a normal roc

  • I mean, the survs smash generators with their toolboxes and heal in seconds with their boons but meanwhile, as soon as you tunnel someone it's like their brains turn off and they swarm you/DC. Really starting to enjoy tunnelling more than patrolling generators only to find the survivors have gone ultra-immersive mode or they've run miles cuz of spine chill. I don't get fun games anymore due to

There have been tons of version of Jack the Ripper which I will list some well known ones. Batman Assassin's Creed

  • We loaded onto The Game map and all of us immediately went down. Then here comes a Spirit and she hooks me and then hooks a David. David unhooks himself and Spirit downs him from far away (she wasn't even near him) and blood splattered on my character and my character screamed when she downed him. She hooked David and the rest. I reported her, but I highly doubt it will do anything. Fix your an

  • One of my friends gets really disturbed by the Onryo. He doesn´t have a phobia or some other mental health struggles but something about this killer really scares him. So I wondered what people with real phobias do, who also want to enjoy the game because not every killer bothers them. To DbD community members with certain phobias killers can trigger like: coulrophobia (fear of clowns / Clows
