Hi, so I like tournaments and I like data. I hope noone has done this before, but I didn't find it at least, so I watched tournament that was hosted by OhTofu and tried to get some data from it. Sorry, if I made a mistake somewhere. So general rules: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1_vqE5Dyy9qB9PLq1HX5jYARBGoo_A8AFNUiWdArr4ns/edit -Perks can be used only once, e3 comments 2,121 views last activity

It's so good, it's probably a good reason why most people even play this game and why the community can sometimes be a bit bittersweet (or at least from what I've noticed in the past 2-3 weeks of playing). Most people probably don't even realize it but there's a few things that accomplish this. First, you don't ever LOSE a game, as a survivor your whole team can die and you can still go up in21 comments 381 views last activity

Genuine question. It seems like if I don't get one of the main 3 realms (Coldwind, Autohaven, McMillan) then I end up getting one of the 5 Badham maps. It doesn't help that Badham is really unbalanced. There really isn't any need for 5 variations of this awful map.16 comments 191 views last activity

I'm actually excited for the new betas tab its not a ptb but at least it's a step in the right direction. Now if we can get some better sensitivity options and a deadzone slider that would be great just put it in the betas tab and I'll check it out. I got to say good job to bhvr on this one console players need a bone every once in a while to.6 comments 161 views last activity

First some context to this whole thing. Got the game free on Epic, played with a friend who had like ~200 hours before that, I'm a fast learner, I got to Iridescent 2 and him to Iridescent 4, I have meh perks as I'm stuck with the starter survivors so games are usually pretty close. I also sometimes play as a killer when he's not online. And now here's my issue. For a while killer was fun, I wa44 comments 791 views last activity

I noticed that when I am a team player and I bring in perks that help out my team I'm almost always screwed by them and bringing perks like DS or unbreakable would have saved me this is kind of a vent lol because I almost always play solo9 comments 91 views last activity

Idk if it's because I'm bad or what but people I used to enjoy(legion, wraith, pig) it just feel awful to play them. I chase somebody then realize I'm wasting too much time so I go after somebody else then by the time I down somebody 2-3 gens are done. It's just really discouraging. Only time I feel like I do good is if I play pinhead or clown29 comments 491 views last activity

In case anyone has forgotten, communication isn't always key when it comes to survivor coordination in DBD. There are elements in which no one could tell you what/how to do something. It also requires skill to be able to make the appropriate read , time actions and overall understand that it isn't a 1v1 game , and you have to play YOUR part not just holding M1, but also sometimes do7 comments 121 views last activity

Hello, I was just in a match with Pyramid head and I had "We're gonna live forever" perk. Upon saving someone from the Cage of atonement (or whatever it's called), I noticed that I didn't get a stack. Saving people from the cage is identical to saving people from the hook, so I don't understand why there's no stack given for this. I believe this is an overlooked mistake and proposition that t18 comments 321 views last activity

OhToFu released a new tier list today. I feel this guy has one of the best feels for the game and heavily weight his opinion on tier lists. Interestingly he states the Twins is the third best killer in the game, knocking Spirit down to fourth. He also has Deathslinger at the top of A tier, coming in at seventh best. Have yall seen his YT video yet and how’s it feel to know Twins is still consid68 comments 1,732 views last activity

In the patch notes they talk about being able to opt in to test things early for some extra BP? For all platforms. Now I'm a console player and I sometimes boot up my dusty laptop to try the PTB but this seems like a nice new addition and you get rewarded?? I'm certainly down for it, dont need the BP but I always like testing things and giving feedback. Side note: Guinea is a funny word isnt i26 comments 311 views last activity

So, I got a PS5 recently and decided to get dbd and just kinda make it a fun account. Do some achievements, have fun, yada yada yada. Obviously this also means I've been going for my adepts. I personally, after trying for so long believe that Adept Killer should be changed so that killers are only required to get a 4k. For a few reasons.

So, new dev update. There's a section about solo survivors. The important bit is this: "One feature we are experimenting with is a status icon next to each Survivor’s portrait in the HUD that lets you know what they are doing. This way, solo Survivors can base their decision around what their teammates are doing, and partial groups get a better idea of80 comments 1,341 views last activity

Frankly it’s absurd that a hooked or drying survivor can break Ghostface out of his power. You’ve won the chase, you should be rewarded for it, not punished A hooked or downed survivor is temporarily out of action, they should be able to do nothing but crawl and recover until they’re rescued, not rob a killer of their entire power24 comments 571 views last activity

Hi, all. I'll preface this with a full disclosure that I am against the new skill based matchmaking that has been instituted in this games recent history. To get it out of the way, I'll state that I have 2600+ hrs split between killer and survivor, more hours played as survivor. The most recent situation that occurred to me was last night (Jan 2nd, 2022). As solo survivor, I constantly get tea3 comments 132 views last activity

Hopefully, the experience with solo queue/partial groups shouldn't be as painful as before with the upcoming patches ahead of us. I'm so excited because QOL like these makes the game less stressful to play. With the gap between solo, partial groups, and full swf being reduced - this should open more opportunities for better improvements for both sides. Also, today's my bday (January 3) so than1 comments 51 views last activity

it's not even funny anymore , had 3 games today and all 3 vs good killers but survivors with 1 and 2 perks .... all 3 of them sat in the corner of the map for 2 hook states (after hiding in lockers and crouch walking) . Then came for me WHILE BEING CHASED so they instantly got grabbed off the save and i died first hook. this is just ONE of the games1 comments 81 views last activity

Ruin got nerfed because everyone was using it and it was too strong. But dead hard? A Perk that gives you distance to a vault or just denies the down gets buffed instead of nerfed. Since hit validation is in this game I can't play one game where not at least 1 person has dead hard. It's more close to 2-3 survivors every round. So here is my question. When ruin got nerfed because it was overused51 comments 1,261 views last activity

What's your bloody game. With releasing another BS overpowered addition for survivors. Bloody skill checks on wiggle meter that's just broken. Two skill checks and bam they escape. So guess no hooks for killers then unless they are right near a hook. You seriously have no idea about game balance. I may have said some ridiculous stuff I want but that's just me using what Ive seen in multiple games19 comments 271 views last activity

I'm really happy that Solo Q is finally being looked at. It is something that a lot of people including myself have been asking for a long time. But... no word or update on the hacking situation? Just today I had 4 obvious hackers in my matches. I think it has crossed a point where it is out of control, and at least it could be acknowledged.7 comments 401 views last activity

Honestly man I don't know. In so many of my games I just can't keep anyone hurt. It has ruined so many killer perks and playstyles. I was playing twins and I downed a Meg. By the time I tele back to Charlotte and walked the maybe 30 or 35 yards back she was already healed off the ground and gone. Anyone I injure I feel like I have to chase and down, I can't hurt and hit someone else to put pres43 comments 711 views last activity

The problem is the fact that expierienced solo players are getting matched with players that barely do any objectives like gens, rescuing other survivors, even blessing a totem. They usually hide in corner of the map and basically do nothing for their mates. If you're gonna balance solo survivors expierience look first at your SBMM, because it makes every skilled solo survivor feel hopeless when21 comments 251 views last activity

By pressing the E button, the killer does a dash forward, allowing him to reach the survivor in situations where it would not be possible. Whenever a survivor is able to reach a window or pallet, the killer reaches the survivor using this perk. That's how Dead Hard works, but in reverse. It's the only exhausting perk that doesn't require any management or activation conditions, just pressing a bu33 comments 1,362 views last activity

Hi guys, I do a games design course at college and we have the chance to take a game and do our own stuff to it. I chose Dead by Daylight and I chose to do level design. I have this form I need filled out so if you guys could fill it out then that would be great. serious feedback would be appreciated. 😀 https://forms.office.com/Pages/ResponsePage.aspx?id=NW7qCB78K0SNXftkwn_6CaO8OWeKoPVEn2vQrI14 comments 171 views last activity

Think about the killers who are only viable against disorganized Solo Q. And when they suddenly perish against SWF. Like Legion or Cenobite. And because of this changes for them take much longer. Since the devs don’t want to bring down Solo Q more. If they boost Solo Q quality those killers can be improved against SWF if Solo Q is brought to their level.7 comments 171 views last activity

It's been 5.5 years. In a normal game I really doubt anybody can heal themselves more than 6 times. Unless they are the only person chased and get healed in between chases. Self care now has 3 charges, once injured you can heal yourself in 16 seconds. If healing is interrupted it slowly goes down to 0%. (Like ruin) After each successful selfcare heal you 1 charge gets removed and your next self11 comments 191 views last activity

Me and my mates who are Grade Iridescent 1 and are really experienced in DBD have just been against a Doctor who was Grade Ash 4. I feel really bad for him. We have won lots of games and we still have the same MMR as this doctor for some reason? SBMM is just a joke2 comments 61 views last activity

If BHVR aims to be 'as transparent as possible' regarding SBMM, surely not hiding it in-game so completely that most players don't even know it exists and still assume Grades are how matchmaking works is the way to do so. Show us MMR, or admit there's nothing 'transparent' about it. For instance, they say they are 'changing' how disconnecting works with MMR: we still don't even know how it works23 comments 371 views last activity

Suppose you take away ALL perks, items, addons, and offerings from the game, on both survivors’ side and killer’s side. Would there be killers that are deemed as unfair (overpowered or even underpowered) right off the bat? If so, which ones, and why? I’ve been thinking about this for a while because, if there are imbalances present even without anything extra, these potential imbalances would27 comments 451 views last activity

We can only see part 1 atm. So reducing the update size/times and how they work is great! Love it! Making the new account players lower in mmr, great to keep new players interested.

I don't get it. She sucks so bad. Against a team she's useless bc she's to slow. Any survivor knows to simply pop her traps and shift w, and for some God awful reason the devs thought it was a good idea to be able to destroy her traps with flashlights. So dumb. It's literally all she can do that's good. Why counter? She can't chase. Ever try using a basement hag? Two survivors can just yolo save16 comments 321 views last activity

The past few days I have been playing a lot of Nemesis since he's the only Killer that I have the perk Scourge Hook: Pain Resonance on. I've become somewhat decent with him and have just climbed up to Level I/Bronze. Now with MMR, I have been facing much tougher teams including full Iridescent teams (which seems odd, but I digress...lol) At any rate, this morning I had a match on the Swamp again14 comments 441 views last activity

Howdy denizens of the Fog! (TL;DR: Higher skill players can better handle MMR variation, and newer players need more accurate MMR pairing to ensure the future integrity of DBD and prevent bouncing new players away from DBD.) I've been watching XQC's attempt at playing Huntress, and a thought occurs to me. Despite our current issues with MMR accuracy, I think there may be an easier, but somewhat0 comments 41 views last activity

Thank you. Or at least rebalance it, so survivors don't have 4 godly buildings to run to and the only viable killer on that map being nurse.

hey, The Internet is a meeting place for people from all walks of life and all age groups. After a busy day, there are many who just want to sit down and play a game. It's only human that sometimes people take their pent-up anger or frustration from work home with them. Unfortunately, it sometimes happens that this frustration transfers to the game and you give it free rein. The so-called "ide34 comments 1,562 views last activity

When it comes to the solo play stuff. These are things the community has said for years now..Why did you have to get concrete data to understand that?? I understand this community is nothing but people bitching all day about everything, but I feel like the solo experience was a warranted one. IMO it was always just a console play thing based on my experience as a PS4 player that switched to Pc af5 comments 481 views last activity
