  • Has there been a change to hook spread or layout recently? I've had two matches where I had huge dead zones with no hooks anywhere close. I hadn't even hooked anyone at this point either.

  • I've played a good amount of Bubba and never really saw the need to play another Chainsaw killer, but I said, Hey, why the heck not. Anyhow, after several matches, how to use him effectively just has me scratching my head. Sure, the sprint is fast--but it seems to be just a fast way to hit the corner of every object on the map and stun myself for several seconds. I found Billy's chainsaw harde

  • Since a few days, the game put me on a server located in central Europe, which makes me get more ping than I had before. Before the game put me on a server located in Western Europe and there my ping was good. I've tried vpn before but it doesn't work. I hope a good samaritan can help me please :(

  • Or would this be too OP? I am talking about killers like Plague (Corrupt Purge), Pyramid Head (Rites of Judgement), Trickster (Blades) Etc. I personally feel like it wouldn’t be too unbalanced considering we have one-shot killers who can already do that. It would also just add to the “threat” level the killer would present. It also wouldn’t make a difference too much seeing as nobody uses t

  • just wondering, it’s been a little while now since they were hastily announced right at the end of the 5th anniversary stream and all parties involved seem to have been very quiet since. Does anyone know if they are going ahead still, or is this something that an agreement couldn’t be made between both parties so it’s been quietly scrapped? I’m really hoping not, I was really looking forward

  • How about... Now follow me here because this is a little outside of the box and obviously not the focus at all right now... But how about CHEAT VALIDATION? Eh? How about that? Like the server recognizes when things are going much too fast or happening way too much in a certain time span? Like maybe it could even, I don't know, be able to take into account perks an

  • I tend to notice a lot when people are talking about the state of the game or the balance, everyone loves bringing up high mmr or bring high level play (doesn't exist) into said arguments. Slapping on Meta perks or playing against Meta perks doesn't mean your good or bad at the game. I can almost guarantee that nobody knows their mmr on killer or survivor.

  • Count Dracula, Frankenstein, and all of the universal horror killers are unlicensed and free public domain. I think it'd be cool to have a killer who can transform into a bat and mind control would be awesome. Here's a clip from the 1931 film: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IVPxAgy7lBA&t=29s

  • Does anyone know if this addon has been fixed? I haven't seen anything on it but I remember when it was first released the traps activated but didn't count down at all. So if anyone knows about this can they please let me know if it would be a waste of time to use?

  • All the Killers this year had super unique weapon ideas. Probably the most creative year we've had for the weapon designs. Trickster Weapon: A Bat with a Blade and Neon Prop Throwing Knives. Nemesis Weapon: Fisting and Giant Tentacle. Pinhead Weapon: Chains and Hooks. Artist Weapon: Ink and Murders of Crows.

  • So I love doctor because he’s very fun to play. But the other day this girl said that people only play doctor to prevent them from unlocking cosmetics during the event. Huh? I should note they were pretty salty with another one saying I was bad and the same girl said I was a clown (not the killer😂) who didn’t deserve to win after I 4k them ya know just the usual salty survivor stuff you see from

  • When it comes to Midwich it's a hard map for gens and such but the major problem is the exit gates it isn't easy to open most of the time because there's a difference between it and the game map. The game map has a bunch of obstacles to block the view of it and to give killers a bit of time to get to it but Midwich no obstacles to really block the view it's just move in a certain way and you can

  • I heard that Spirit was inspired from the Ring. And I had this idea pop up in my brain, I decided to draw this, because why not? By the way, I just realized something about myself being on this forum, Im gonna type it down. Around 2019, when I was surfing around Pinterest for drawing preferences and saw many DBD comics, I really like the art and st

  • I don't know if this is the right place or not. I'm pretty new to the game. Everywhere I've seen have people saying you can buy killers with shards. When I go to buy them it needs Auric Cells as well, is that a thing now? Thanks!

  • Survivors got new ugly sweaters. They have party starters. They can hop in and walk in a snowman suit. Killers got a couple reskins on default head cosmetics for Trickster and Artist that just gives them blue eyes, and a couple reskinned weapons. Plus, they have to hit survivors three times. They didn't get any winter themed add on like the Blight Serum during the Halloween event. They can't hop

  • lets face it DBD if you turn off crossplay this game is unplayable and you cant find matches even though thats an issue with crossplay on and you dont think that a mouse and keyboard would be a good idea. I really dont like playing as killer with a controller it sucks and im slowly starting to drop this game because i have been waiting for at least a hint that mouse and keyboard support will be

  • Being out of town for a few weeks, I finally decided to try the Mobile version of DbD out in earnest. And overall it’s not bad! 🙂 There are some things I like and things I’m not so fond of so far. 👍 You can set up custom matches to play against bots. The bots obviously aren’t the brightest opponents, but it’s a nice way to learn the game mechanics and explore maps. You earn no experience or blo

  • I know it's early and I hope I am wrong but, because of constant nerfs on killers now what is the point of getting the new dlc if it's just going to get nerfed while survivors keep most of their buff and broken perks?

  • What killer do you like to zone out and play in order to farm BP for the next new thing coming out? Personally I like Spirit or Oni myself where they are high enough tier that most matches aren't a big deal and I can happily farm with survivors after I get 8 hooks fairly quickly. But if I want to meme a bit more I'll go for the Ghostface or Clown.

  • Does anyone else have the same problem? Everything was fine until today. I have played 4 Survivor games and all my mates and the killers were new players only. Not a single exception. Also I can't finde games anymore for some reason. Usually I am waiting 1-2 minutes. Now I have to wait 5-10 minutes. I never de-ranked. I don't dc. I didn't die 500 times in a row. So I can at least rule out th

  • Welcome to Dead by Daylight! We have survivors running: Decisive Strike, Deadhard, Circle of Healing, Shadow Step Decisive Strike, Deadhard, Circle of Healing, Shadow Step Decisive Strike, Deadhard, Circle of Healing, Shadow Step Decisive Strike, Deadhard, Circle of Healing, Shadow Step The only variety that exists is people playing for memes and killers.

  • So something I've been wondering about is why on Earth presteiging a character takes away all of their perks, items, addons, offerings, etc. I want to presteige my Quentin and Meg at some point, but they have 3rd Year Anniversary items/offerings on them and I don't want those to disappear. Is there a reason for this?

  • I reckon this chapter is probably the best one if we're talking about Killer perk value alone. There's three different type of perks to hold off generators from Slow down, Regression and Lock down. I have been getting a lot of matches where there's no Ruin anymore but then again it could just be matchmaking being an idiot though.

  • Does anyone know what happened to the hit detection? I remember a long time ago there was a couple weeks where there was some server error where you could git hit over every pallet. Is that happening again and why is nobody talking about how trash it's been?

  • I just saw that a discussion about this got closed so here it is again :) Its litreally cheating and needs to be adressed, its one of the bigger reasons why I stopped playing Killer. Any other game adjust themselves to the picked resolution so thats why you cannot do that, except dbd, dbd just stays at the same resolution which is just dumb.

  • Just a hypothetical, how many Megs would we need to let loose if you could use absolutely everything? Double? 12? 20? What about the reverse where the 4 survivors could use everything? 2 killers? 4 killers? A Dozen?? That would probably be unfun to deal with but it would be funny to see what horrific chaos would emerge

  • Here is my guide to save as many bloodpoints as possible, while also completing the archives. Red Line = Collect Yellow Circle = Save Since the game only allows you to hold 1 million bloodpoints at any given time, this is a way to store extra bloodpoints for a later date. Apologies for this one being so late. Logging onto the game has been a problem r

  • I made a topic recently about how i felt that make your choice wasn't really worth it in my opinion. I had the idea of combining those two perks back in my mind... and then i decided to try it out. To be honest, this combo felt to me like the enduring/ spirit fury one (meaning: a perk that greatly improves thanks to one other mandatory perk). What's your thoughts?

  • So I kind of wanted to share this story since it's kind of funny/frustrating. (Also please feel free to share any DBD stories you have, I'd love to hear them) So we were going against a Hag with STBFL on Rancid Abattoir. This Meg immediately got downed in the beginning of the game and got hooked near me. As Hag was setting up traps near the area, she went near a pallet and went to set a trap nea

  • Freddy is seemingly the only killer I can consistently get a 4 kill game with, for reasons I am quite literally unaware to. From my understanding, Freddy is extremely weak at the moment, compared to his old states. He is, without a doubt, THE most perk dependent killer I can think of, even more than say, Trapper. Playing Freddy with no pop, tinkerer, or corrupt, feels almost like he's F tier. But

  • I've seen all kinds of developers and the way they deal with their community from playing many different online games in the past but BHVR really takes the cake when it comes to ignoring its own playerbase. I don't even see them come to the forums anymore, it's just the mods who seem to perform damage control whenever threads get out of control but that's it. It's extremely obvious that the game

  • With the coming of Christmas, I suggest adding a social map. A game mode where players don't compete but are there just to chat with each other. The map is based on the lore from Day by Daylight, when survivors are at the fire and killers can't hurt them. This is my suggested layout for the map: Yellow - the campfire. Dark Brown - Logs. black cyrcle

  • Thanks to the Snow event, I can't play Wraith because Survivors are abusing Snowmen by extending chases to ridiculous proportions thanks to being able to hide inside a Snowman and take a free hit without being injured and get distance without consequences. This event is supposed to be fun, but it is only fun for Survivors, that much is clear. Nothing about the Snowmen favors Killers in any shape

  • If you open the hatch with a key midgame, and the killer closes it, do you get the blood points, and if you reopen it and the killer keeps reclosing it, does that give you a lot of blood points?
