  • It's either the subtle ones, the killers that make you spawn on dying state, the survivors doing all gens at once and leaving, the ones who play fine then when they're gonna die they just trigger escape, the sightly extra expeed ones, the survivors that instant heal you by distance and makes it look like you are the hacker (had a streamer spending 10 minutes to ticket report me and when I tried t

  • So I want to play a game between killer mains, and survivor mains- neutrals can play too…but this is more of a therapeutic session for opposing sides. The idea came to me while joking around in another thread with @KingSiege45 shoutout to him. So how it works is one side proposes a trade, and the opposition can either accept or make a counter offer until both sides come to an agreement. So

  • How does it work. Are there an algoritm or is it totally random (if no offerings are used)? Was chasing this last injured survivor towards an unsafe loop. The other survivor was killing herself on hook. I was feeling confident that this was going to be a well deserved 4K. The hooked survivor gets sacrificed the moment I hit the last survivor. Surprice! the hatch spawned right under her feet th

  • I think more than a few of us have called this "Toxic" right? Well I kinda disagree but also... agree. I don't know. I don't really find this toxic as I have played a fair amount of both sides. Usually from what I've seen when a survivor does either of the two things the killer will probably get frustrated allowing the survivor in the head causing killer to play worse. I've seen this before where

  • This perk is so useless in its current state, you don't get any benefit from using it. "After injuring a healthy survivor, all injured survivors suffer from the oblivious status effect". So that means you need to drop a chase after injuring a healthy survivor to try and catch someone who is distracted but there's no reason to do that, even if you manage to catch someone, all the trouble of havi

  • This player base says they want killers to play fair., no camping or tunneling. The killer doesn't do that, survivors are all like "ggez baby killer. Git gud." The killer does camp or tunnel, and the surivvors say "Trash killer. Git gud." ANd this community wonders why survivor que times are so long. THey wonder why people hate playing killer.

  • So as a Killer main, what would make you give up a guaranteed down to pursue a healthy survivor who could end up looping you hard all game? This may sound like a rare occurrence but for me it's a majority of my games. Killer chasing injured survivor, injured survivor is out in the open and not close to any loops, killer sees me, breaks chase, goes after me despite me being healthy, and proceeds t

  • So I was doing a rift challenge and at endgame they start to cry because they couldn't blind me. I told them I was doing a rift challenge and also if I'm the killer, I'm going to use any perk I want. They said well you don't need lightborn. I reread my challenge to them 5 times to get in their thick skulls I honestly hate this entitlement. If you want the killer to play a certain way you play

  • I was always wondering how Blight can hit you when you actually are standing beneath him, not on front of him, and was joking with "it is a 'desk-hitbox' or like a 200° cone" and expecting it to be a latency issue. But now this happens: https://clips.twitch.tv/PowerfulThirstyAntNomNom-QGcB3ApqYuyom_eK If you play it at slow motion (x0.25) you can see that there is literally no situation where

  • This really baffles me. Why does Onryo have a 24m lullaby when demanifested? When she gets undetectable? Sure it's quiet and doesn't give you and indicator on how close she is, but it still tells you "hey she's within 24m start running". In fact while that's being answered why does trickster have one as well? He's harmless past 12m.

  • Gave up on nurse long ago but been playing her recently and doing pretty good but every match I used shadow born I feel like it's a wasted perk slot but it's good the wider fov helps tracking survivors and not sure if it's placebo but I land more hits with it didn't test a lot without it and for other perks I use ruin undying and corrupt intervention or tinkerer instead I had a good run on open m

  • This is a pic of the steam charts and I find it really worrying that we have BARELY broken the peak of last month. It is incredibly distressing to see that a new chapters launch has been less than 100 players above the peak of last month. Im hoping tommorrow and the weekend might see the peak raise but if not this is really quite a bad sign. I hate this

  • Would you rather be looped to oblivion or have to go half way across the map. Ether way this is a game about running from a killer. Not trying to sound disrespectful by any means, but their is always an exuse that people come up with that is "bad for the game"

  • Was just thinking about what would actually bring me back to the game and would love to hear any ideas you have. Mine are these Actually taking map balance seriously. They had a chance with the realm beyond but didn’t take it. Maps are in general too big and loop chaining makes rng play too big a role. Getting rid of the stale meta. Fact is buffing vigil by a bit isn’t going to make me use it

  • I was looking at the new spirit cosmetic in the store and I thought that the red flowery cosmetic from the rift a while ago would go great with this. I looked through my spirit cosmetics and noticed that the red hair in the cosmetic is now black. I just noticed that my flower rift body piece is also missing is there a way to get that back?

  • Beware, long read ahead After playing Sadako for a while, I've realized that, she's not that bad, she's pretty good in fact. Let me start this off by saying, I'm not the best Onryō player in the world, I'm not using her best build and I don't know how high my MMR (if it even works) is, this is all just based on my experience AS, not against, the Onryō. Here's a quick explanation on the

  • After several years without a viable gaming computer, I got one. With that, the desire to play something. After research, I decided to play DBD (I'm 40 with a toddler, so yeah, one game), I love horror movies and this was my opportunity to not make the "mistakes" killers make on movies. After analysing the Killer pool, I noticed I would enjoy playing Deathslinger, but I wouldnt start DBD with a

  • People from both sides are doing this. I lost! How this is possible!!! I did not deserved this lose. I am best gamer on the world. DbD is unfair! Survivors are op. Killers are op! Camping is op! Genrush is op! etc. Just why? I am not saying DbD is perfectly balanced but i don't think DbD is that bad either. I rarely see people who admit their mistakes and write good messages.

  • Wanted to make a thread talking about the issue of burnout and wanted to see if I could get some insight into various things like what causes people to be burned out from DBD, what they do about it, if they bother to keep trying or just stop playing all together. For those interested in the thread: On a scale of 1-9 with 1 being not at all and 9 being burned out to the point of not playing an

  • Mainly to Sadako. For months I’ve been bashing her as a worry that she would take Spirit’s spotlight which I now regret. I've been taking unhealthy approaches to where I'm comparing Spirit to Sadako and trying to prove why "Sadako will never reach Spirit's level" or "Spirit is a superior version of Sadako." The love I have for Spirit is probably stronger than you imagine it to be and all I want m

If I get hit the game stutters and then it can't connect to host then = disconnected. It's about time the devs actually use the PTR to prevent bugs from entering the live servers...instead of a way to showcase their new weak killers for peo

  • Playing a new killer with 2 perk slots filled with level 1 sub optimal perks against a full meta team the fact that you have to grind game after game after game just to get the desired perks so you have at least some chance of winning against a good team is so disheartening the grind on this game is still abysmal and with every new chapter it gets worse and worse I’m sorry but a 1.5x BP even

  • I'm sure we all know, kills does not equal skill and nor does Escaping. While you do have to do something to get a kill or escape its obviously not 100% reflection on singular skill. The current system is a KBMM or EBMM. The solution? Simple, base the ranking off actual skill or what we would deem a skillful play/behaviour. Killers: we would use a point based system, not over complex but it wou

  • How would you feel about this? Downed survivors are no longer able to reveal Ghostface. Hooked survivors have a reduced range of 50% to revealing Ghostface. Performing a basic attack will only deactivate Night Shroud if Ghostface misses a hit during a chase. Crouch speed increased to 3.86 m/s (edited the first to address the camping situation)

  • She may not be the strongest killer in the game but she’s far from the weakest and is better than what most people are saying. But more importantly, when I play Sadako I actually feel like (and look) a horror character in a horror game, which can’t be said for the majority of the roster, and I think the devs deserve a pat on the back for being able to bring that feeling to fruition whilst keeping

  • Had matches as survivor (Which I don't play often) Got a good amount of escapes, not so many deaths. I got good teammates and bad killers, and the more I escaped the better the killer got, and my teammates were getting worse. Seems something there doesn't make any ######### sense but sure, we'll take it. Now I'm playing killer, playing as the Onryo. First 2 matches were easy, 3 kills in one and

I confess it may be possible that despite playing since 2018 I might, occasionally, as killer, sometimes, and definitely no
