So the developers have stated that using stretched resolution is considered an exploitation. However, they also state that they cannot ban someone for it, since you can't ever really tell if the person is using it. So my question is, if you get beaten by a group of stretched resolution players with flashlight macros, and they post montages on the internet, is this a bannable offense? Of course,3 comments 91 views last activity

Is the kill rate of Twins at high MMR only high because of Survivors killing themselves on the hook?During the Q&A Stream on the 20th January 2022 it was said that the Twins Killer has a high kill rate at high MMR, and that the developers do not want to buff them for that reason (paraphrased). Could this high kill rate be a result of Survivors killing themselves on hook when playing against Twins? This character is often described as not being fun to play against, and from what I understan5 comments 123 views last activity

I have played Dbd for years, through ups and downs. Took many breaks, at times the game was in a horrible state (bug wise). What made me return after each time was hope. The core gameplay of Dbd is really simple but good, surely the people responsible for making this great game would eventually move it in a good direction for the playerbase ( writing as a long time player). There is the huge hac1 comments 56 views last activity

Hi So windows 11 releases on october 5th. Will there be support for DBD? I know a little while ago someone said on the forums that they were trying a beta release and dbd ran terrible on it. So im wondering if we should hold off until dbd gets support for it?11 comments 821 views last activity

Personally as a FDHU (Frequent Dead Hard User) I can't wait to see how they make this perk more fair and balanced.28 comments 571 views last activity

All but two killers have a 2 escape average, yet this game is so unfair for survivors? Survivors won’t be satisfied until they’re able to escape every single match. People who have this mind set clearly lack empathy, if you feel balance is being able to escape every match, you’re saying killers in theory shouldn’t get a kill most games. Behavior has been catering to survivors for quite sometime13 comments 181 views last activity

Anyone else experiencing lag when one survivor unhooks another? It's happened to me several times already on last gen console (xbox) and it's completely new to me, makes me miss hits I should've gotten.1 comments 41 views last activity

What if we made hex pentimento make killer able to crush boon totems. No clue on how it would work just kinda.... "flying" and had an idea. That way it would be risk reward Discuss....2 comments 81 views last activity

with the last Q&A we found out that the devs think "escapes and deaths" are the best way to judge someone's skill. Well, as someone that plays DBD for a long time, I can confirm that they are completely wrong and you just need to experience all the different layers of this game to know that. So here's a system that I think would work 100 times better: (assuming 300 points as a good amount f0 comments 34 views last activity

They’ve made it clear for 4 years now they don’t care about game health. I thought to myself “Wait, why do I care then?” and everything has made sense. I shouldn’t care! After finally finding the answer, I can say this: I had fun with DBD. Don’t care about game health or other people having fun. The devs have been trying to tell us the best, most fun way to play DBD this whole time. We all though2 comments 111 views last activity

Me: Turns on DBD. "I've only played artist twice, and both times were against really good SWFs, maybe I'll get more even matches tonight so I can actually try her out." Queue up, instant match up, two TTVs, so I dodge. Look then up, it's a full SWF on comms all with the same builds, dh, ds, bt, and either a boon, unbreakable, or prove thyself. Glad I dodged that. Queue up again. Another TT13 comments 201 views last activity

They said they dont want to remove perk tier because its a temporary solution. Exept if they remove perk tier they remove 66% of the grind that mean the solution they gonna put will reduce more then 66% of the grind. So when they finally decide to reduce the grind it should be a huge reduction even if they do it in 2 year11 comments 111 views last activity

I legit just spent about 30 seconds trying to solve the box, every time I’d press the button I’d be harassed by chains making the box literally unsolvable until I finally ran around and dodged a chain first I thought this was a bug that had already been addressed? The chains should definitely still attack the box holder yes, as to not rob Pinhead of his power and force them to solve it. But m5 comments 491 views last activity

Craziest suggestion: Use the emblems. I have had the game for going on 3 years now, and not ONCE have I thought my emblem score in a match was 'unfair'. I understand I didn't get chased much, or I understand I didn't do many saves, but that is understood and I played well in other aspects of the match while that one emblem was lacking. The emblem system has had the MOST work over the years4 comments 81 views last activity

As of now prestiging is pretty pointless unless you want the bloody cosmetics, So I made up new rewards for prestiging. I was thinking that a permanent bp multiplier would make prestiging much more appealing. I was thinking a 1.2 to 1.5 to 2 times bp multiplier for prestige 1, 2, and 3. I would love to hear some more ideas for prestige rewards from the community!14 comments 141 views last activity

(Just in case, before I begin: I myself play both roles almost equally, and I'm not a "main" of any side. I usually play as whoever has the fastest queue time at the moment.) We all have seen our fair share of these "us vs them" threads, we see them every day, but many of you might have already noticed that such threads made by killer mains are greatly prevailing. Every day you can see them comp57 comments 1,051 views last activity

TIL from the Q&A stream that if you come into a match as killer and the survivors are already all there and ready, it's going to be unbalanced (probably not in your favor) because MMR ignored rank to sub you in for a killer who lobby-dodged.2 comments 61 views last activity

Since the devs don't seem to have even the slightest idea why this perk is the single strongest perk they have ever added into the game, even trumping old Mettle of Man I will elaborate (despite knowing this will fall on deaf ears.) This perk is to strong because it allows for an infinite self heal for the entire team at the cost of just ONE PERSON bringing the perk. This perk single handedly re20 comments 211 views last activity

The dev chat today was good, they answered quite a few questions and it had some fun info. I think the one question I would have liked answered that wasn't brought up, though, was if they're still considering removing your opponents' Grades from the endgame score screens. They mentioned they're reluctant to show the hidden MMR, and that's fine, but they didn't talk about whether or not they still11 comments 561 views last activity

Dead by daylight is a game that’s rated m for mature: 18+. I imagine a lot of people on here are adults. A good amount of you guys & gals are acting like you’re in middle school. Grow up. It’s just a game, arguing like children doesn’t accomplish anything. It annoys the hell of out the devs, & mods. It’s just a game. It is too much to ask for to enjoy dead by daylight ??25 comments 391 views last activity

I'm tired of dying on my first hook due to solo que survivors, I'm not asking for much I just don't wanna lose tokens for dying on my first hook. Or maybe solo que survivors will see this and know maybe taking a risk can save the game rather than sitting infront of the killer pointing at them.1 comments 21 views last activity

Yesterday and today I have had 2 matches where the killer goes to pick me up. Then all of a sudden I vanish from the killers back and appear to be hovering up in the air near where the killer picked me up. My POV remains on the killers back and the wiggle bar turns into the recovery bar. One time I somehow got healed up and was still floating around in the air and moving my character except my PO8 comments 131 views last activity

Noticed this in a match earlier playing Nemesis. All of the zombies were at trees not walking anywhere during the entire match. When one of the survivors left the gate during EGC zombie started walking. Coincidence or hack?6 comments 101 views last activity

I know it has nothing to do with Ranks. However Ranks relate to how much you play the game based on what you do in the match. For example I do a lot of generators in the match then my lightbringer will go up and there for I gain a pip towards my rank. Same with the other categories. Therefore my rank would somewhat represent how much effort goes into a match during a month. So then how doe1 comments 61 views last activity

If SBMM really is based on skill like the devs say it is then making it visible to see your skill improve is not toxic. Almost every game ever that has a system in place that ranks your skill doesn't hide it. It's visible so you can see your skill improve, how much skill you actually have, and to see if the system is actually functioning or not. If SBMM is inherently toxic why do they rank your64 comments 872 views last activity

So because the game dont have a replay feature that mean if a player dont have a 3 party program that register their game reporting a hacker is not worth the time. So in a way its like you are saying to the hacker come and hack our game unless you are really unlucky you should have zero issue.

I’ve just had the worst game as pig and it seems to be a common occurrence tbh and it’s become increasingly frustrating to play her.

A friend of mine plays dbd. Well he used to, Hes got this problem where he can't spend any blood points at all. Ive asked him if hes verified the files and he has, I then told him that maybe a uninstall and reinstall may work Anyone else have any ideas?

I'm not gonna say much. Had a match vs 3 swf on console, of course I got destroyed, since they can do whatever they want. Survivors are gods on DBD right now compared to a killer.14 comments 241 views last activity

I get it. You all don't want to allocate a ton of resources to make bots playable against 26+ killers. That is perfectly reasonable. Just let Killers load into a custom match with no survivors so they can practice blinks, chainsaw curves, hatchet throws, etc. without having to struggle through a bunch of ego-destroying matches. I cannot think of a reason why this would be difficult to implement.12 comments 222 views last activity

Stop talking to say nothing, you say way too much to answer a simple question that can be answered with yes or no or 2-3 sentences, please keep it short. Don't say "soon" if it's not within 2-3 patches away (1-3 months) for us when you say soon we expect it AT LEAST in 2 patches, you said soon about ghostface and legion in the LAST Q&A and it's actually not even close to be soon, don't say6 comments 71 views last activity
