Michael Myers' reworked kit is nothing short of a failure. It's clunky, boring, and worst off, NOT MICHAEL MYERS. Michael Myers stalks his victims from a distance. Michael Myers only briskly walks at most. Michael Myers does NOT have a "Slaughtering Strike" where he dashes (it's a dash, NOT a lunge) at a brisk 15 meters+ a second. I'm extremely worried by the total lack of communication from Ma25 comments 712 views last activity

So some people have wanted totems and hexes to be changed for awhile and im not entirely sure how to overhaul them but i do have this. At the start of each trial the killer is given a random hex like devour hope or blood favor and the survivors would still have to go and find the hex like normal. That way the survivors have a secondary objective to go and find the hex thats always going to be the4 comments 42 views last activity

Hello, Something I've noticed in post-game chat and also in Dead by Daylight discussions online is that players are very angry when the opposite side plays good and employs smart strategies. For instance I was playing deathslinger and I slugged pretty much the whole game because it was the best play. I was able to down all four at 1 gen remaining in a 3-gen setup barely turning the game around.8 comments 221 views last activity

Honestly, killrate is such a bad standard for balancing. The difference in games between a 3k and a 4k, are not big enough to warrant a 25% difference in strength rating. There are multiple factors that I will get to, but a big factor is slugging for the 4k. If a killer slugs for the 4k, usually they have a huge advantage on finding and hooking the survivor, finding and hooking the survivor and5 comments 161 views last activity

Usually 4-5 days before a new chapter gets released we get an announcement from BHVR about the livestream that takes place right before the release. It seems we didn’t get that announcement post this time around.0 comments 41 views last activity

ive played 20 matches of survivor today. My team escaped ONE. I see your statistics have the killer winning 60 percent of the time. What are you guys thinking. Why not make it 50 50. Killer perks are absolutely ridiculous compared to survivor perks. The only thing survivors have is pallets and windows and so many killers (knight, legion, nurse and more) aren’t even affected by them. It’s like you57 comments 1,542 views last activity

Genuine question cause auto aim has only just messed me up and never helped. I know this is mainly a problem for us controller users but it would be very nice to just toggle the feature on and off like in most games instead of forcing it. And for me personally since the walking dead update i've been having way more of these auto aim whiffs. Thoughts?22 comments 583 views last activity

I’ve noticed this recently and it seems my game looks way better when i’m on the hook as opposed to being off the hook. Wondering if this is happening to anyone else before i report it as a bug. I’m not sure if my screenshots look the same as in game but if you are experiencing this as well please share in the comments. here’s the screenshot when i’m on the hook. the map and overall lighting loo8 comments 121 views last activity

So normally I don’t think that DBD is survivor sided or killer sided, but I’ve noticed a running pattern that anytime killer mains complain about a survivor perk or mechanic it gets nerfed and when survivors and killers alike complain about something it gets delayed everytime… and I don’t mean the delay on the anti tunneling update cause I watched those lives and that would just be HORRID!

No, I’m not saying that the devs get the men in black memory wipe treatment, I’m instead talking about the killer reworks the devs kinda just ignored after it was said and done. Skull Merchant: this is probably the most obvious example of this but it can’t be helped, Skull Merchant after rework was ignored for a year before getting gutted just because people hated her. It still baffles me becau18 comments 361 views last activity

The game feels like the old P2P days, with extremely laggy killers reigning supreme with laggy hits and seemingly no Server-Side Hit Validation stepping in. I got on to play and quickly got off with this experience. And this is why no one wants to play Survivor. The lag advantage granted to The Killer is too much. Why is someone with this ping even allowed to queue, let alone remain connected to8 comments 252 views last activity

Thankfully with BHVR’S recent communications regarding the state of the game and the direction they want to head in was a relief for me to hear. The biggest frustration personally I have in the game is not being able to enjoy the game whether that is Bugs interfering or a flawed killer design like Sadako for example.

INLately, my internet has been crashing, and I'm getting disconnected while playing, which is causing me to get kicked out. I've already been banned from playing for 5 minutes. The question is, is it possible to obtain a serious limitation in the end in this way?16 comments 561 views last activity

Imo every single map in the game sucks to some capacity but some are just worse then the others and it seems like they keep getting worse. I mean just take a look at the last 3 maps we have been given fazbears dead sands and fallen refuge. Those maps are terrible Fazbears is not a indoor map fully like we all wanted, dead sands is just dash killer heaven and fallen refuge is just pallets and wind19 comments 442 views last activity

The developers have said that they're "reducing the rarity of the Fragrant Tuft of Hair for those who prefer Myers' old kit". Does this mean the addon itself is going down in rarity, or the effect is being moved to a lower-rarity addon? Fragrant Tuft of Hair has been the Ultra Rare for YEARS and it'd be weird to see it be moved to Common. You're telling me a single lock of hair is gonna be wort6 comments 273 views last activity

This killer is mess right now even he got buffed he still sucks more than weaker killers which can control their powers and its not crap AI or rng factor. I like his looks just medival knight in plate armor with some gothic style is something nice but his problem for me are his guards, when survivor is chased with guard he can bug the guard on window by just vaulting it or walking to it and then8 comments 201 views last activity

I find this interesting that the old balance team has left and nobody has said who is balancing the game. Ever since that deleted Walking Dead stream it is interesting that not even the BHVR staff on the stream knew anything or what to do, in otherwise just figure heads.

As A player do you like or hate those perks? Personally I dislike when I use them, but I realize its a necessity(let's be honest, if you can roughly doing 2 gens as a team in by the time it takes killer to get one hook.. it kinda feels rough for the killer) I hear people, more so those whom are on the receiving end of regression, do not llke them.

I like the social aspect in games, communication and making new friends. Even just saying something like "gg that was close" adds to the social experience, and being able to actually communicate with people I add to my friends list. This game seems like a perfect environment for it, yet for some reason console players are completely banned from chat and can't even see it?

so fun and wild both a blessing and a curse dont ya think? i remember when i tried my first Hex only build, i regreted it. not because the hex's were cleansed but… more along the lines half my build fell through because no one cleased the totems.

I'm waiting for the phase 2 changes to be announced, before playing killer again. Why should I put time and effort into playing killer, if it's likely that the phase 2 changes are going to make the entire killer game role feel miserable? Because this PTB was so absolutely miserable for killers, that I'm finding it difficult to believe the next phase 2 PTB will actually be fair for killers.24 comments 531 views last activity

The developers need to stop artificially balancing the game based on statistics. There are several addons and perks in the game that were nerfed simply because they were used a lot or had a higher-than-expected kill rate, but that's not always the case. Sometimes they are used more because the other options are not very useful or have values that are too small to compensate for their use. This is2 comments 151 views last activity

So I know this would take a lot of effort but more game modes where it is not just fixing gens would be kind of cool. I think it would be kind of cool if there was a mode where survivors are trying to find objects for a ritual that would banish the killer. Make it a little more even and might reduce some of the toxicity where a survivor feels mad because they are always the victim. Also a "jus1 comments 21 views last activity

I am so excited for it. tried 1v4 for the first time in a while as survivor….and each and every single match…one dude was tunneled immediately. the moment of unhook they would stop whatever they were doing and head back to hook. had an unknown drop chase with me just to warp back. a spirit phase away just to get back. a ghost face camp just far enough away to mark anyone with the unhook and tunn74 comments 2,154 views last activity

I actually enjoy playing against Nurse, but that's basically until she stacks aura reading, because there is no counterplay at that point. Can we finally make it so she doesn't see survivor aura while charging a blink?

I have played legion for a significant amount of time beginning shortly after his release, and with more and more killers added, it feels like the legion is not worth picking anymore. Legion is on paper supposed to be a hit and run killer that can keep survivors injured with "very easy" first hits. The power also gives some mediocre tracking and mobility.
