Hello everyone as always I have a short question. I played a lot of 2v8 in the last time and my mind was blown apart. People going down left to right in less than 10 seconds. You could say ofcourse the Killer went Tag Teaming on them but that wasn´t the case. I am kinda confused how it is possible that people falling like flies against Killers like Wraith or Nemesis with all there pallets9 comments 251 views last activity

TLDR at bottom; This has been on my mind since the announcement. BHVR has now accepted that winning takes priority over fun. Tunneling and Slugging and inherently unfun strategies to face, and frankly they are incredibly unfun to play. But they are also some of the easiest wins you can get. Removing these in any way removes an easy win, but brings more fun into the game, that should be complete1 comments 161 views last activity

a while ago, I made a tier list on killers I find the most fun to play as and Artist was second to last on that list. I think she is the second most boring killer in the game, she is one spot above my most boring killer personally the Spirit. So I want to go through a bit of character development as it were. I want to learn how to Artist. And I’m mainly posting this because if there are any Arti12 comments 201 views last activity

Theres alot to unpack here, but we should all want the best of both roles. Heres my diagnosis and recommendations. Hopefully no matter your stance, you agree. I'm not gonna bore anyone with personal life and #########, but I am a very unbiased player when it comes to whats best for the game's balance. I'm actually studying Game Design in University at the moment, because ever since I started pla32 comments 861 views last activity

There's annying interaction in dbd that probably should be removed due to huge survivor buff next patch. You see, survivors can finish sometimes gen in front of your face and others can help with it by bodyblocking them. There should be possibility to kick a genwhile survivor is worknig on it in order to prevent that toxic behaviour.4 comments 81 views last activity

It's the year 2025 and we STILL do not have the option to disable this awful mechanic, idk how annoying it is on console since i've never played with a controller but I would assume its just as rage inducing when it makes you miss a hit. How in tarnation do we not have the option to disable this already? Like seriously we're coming up on the 10 year anniversary and we still cannot turn this jank9 comments 221 views last activity

After a certain amount of time of not leaving the game when the exit gates are open survivors I feel need to be penalized. I hate having to escort them out so they can disrespectfully tbag in front of me after running Lithe, Sprint Burst, Windows of Opportunity and whatever crutch survivors need to get a free win. Its so annoying to have to deal with. Just ######### leave the game congrats you wo6 comments 131 views last activity

The proposed rework has good intentions, but in my view, it strays too far from the original essence of the character . The new dash ability , while fun, does not align with Myers’ identity in Dead by Daylight. As someone who mains this killer, I believe a faithful and balanced rework would be much more deserved.

What if in the 2 vs 8, instead of the killers working together, how about scoring points? picking them off in a vs? sorta like freddy vs jason in a sense, I don't know it may or may not work I could be speaking mad, just sort of wondered, Also alas wondering a battle royal with the survs now lol14 comments 241 views last activity

I feel like pallets are a bait and switch scheme. You're presented with an idea, one that festers and consumes your whole identity, "what if I can use this colorful peice of junk to my advantage." Suddenly, you hear noise of somthing big comming from the distance. You realize you have just come face to face with your worst nightmare, yet your frozen.

I'm not going to stay in the match any longer if they decided to tunnel someone specifically from the start and we barely managed to repair 3 gen or slugging from the start, I'm not interested in pleasing the ego of such toxic killers, the match is already clearly over for us so just add abandon in this case in the next update since you are not going to fix the problem with tunneling and slugging38 comments 803 views last activity

The current rift pass is scheduled to end on Wednesday, October 8th. Whenever a new rift pass starts, it’s with the release of the mid chapter. Does that mean we should expect another ptb for the midchapter very soon or was this not pushed back along with the content delay that happened 2 weeks ago?0 comments 71 views last activity

Everytime someone suggested killers being able to abandon, it typically gets shot down since they still have a chance to make a comeback. How is this any different?43 comments 1,314 views last activity

The Slugging feature was fine but the Tunneling update was the problem not saying I need to tunnel to get kills. The problem was definitely if someone misplayed then the killer gets punished for it21 comments 403 views last activity

This is the argument I've been seeing whenever someone discusses the new anti-slug and anti-tunnel changes. So the Twins rework that made them Nurse 2.0 was acceptable becouse it hit PTB first, right? The problem is that these ideas should have never hit PTB in the first place, it's literally a waste of resources. The 2 newest systems are flawed on paper and in practice. Both are complex and sha8 comments 151 views last activity

Mostly for me, I was kinda glad about how some of that would help solo Q, AAnti-slug i would think help them a lot, and honestly might be called a fool for this, but this would be one of the good times to make a "SoloQ only" buff and have it negated for SWF.(because one is your paired with randoms and the other you are not) and if your in a SWF and your on the ground for a long period, that's k11 comments 311 views last activity

Mintskull does an incredible job of explaining what was good and what was bad about Anti Tunnel and Anti Slug. Check out his Video. https://youtu.be/IGunrDw5W_Y?si=FVo4ylOWjxlUDkuE Just a little note. This thumbnail being based on a certain meme is actually pretty funny to me, since this is exactly what the killer experience would've felt like if those changes went live.14 comments 442 views last activity

I dont understand this response.. why not just make it harder to tunnel..? take some aspects and see if they work? keep the buffs from the unhooking and get rid of the gen progress aspect to it. Cant it just be met halfway?8 comments 241 views last activity

Here we are again. another update that was met with such criticising from both sides so the devs quite rightly decided to hold fire and have a rethink before just pushing it to live…and what happens?? Oh look a metric ton of posts criticising their decision to pull the changes. Seriously the community can't complain that these changes are bad then complain when BHVR wants to re-design it sligh11 comments 352 views last activity

Seriously! How miserable is your life if you have cheat in 2v8 mode?? Just came across with weird cheat while I was playing Trapper. As the game went on, I wondered who is following me and triggering my traps all the time. I really thought I had put them in the most secured and hidden. Later, when I put another trap on the ground, and walked away couple of steps, it suddenly snapped behind me. I1 comments 41 views last activity

I genuinely do not think that the people at BHVR play killer. Until I see a video of the developers queueing into public matches and playing full on killer matches, I'm just going to assume that BHVR doesn't really know or care what the killer experience is like. I'd LOVE to be wrong about this.74 comments 2,253 views last activity

So…had to take a screenshot...I waited 30 minutes(though played survivor) to have a teammate be AFK the entire match I got 2 hooks by the end and just open the exit gate because I'm sorry I gave up at the end. The game never kicked them for being AFK and it has done this in the past to where an entire match a killer is AFK and just doesn't get kicked unti18 comments 361 views last activity

Yeah guess I shouldn't have expected anything less from behavior. Nerf the first new item survivor into the ground 2 weeks from release. Completely axe the anti tunneling and slugging at day 0.

The sad part is is that it isn't because of the game itself, but rather the lack of moderation or consequences. I had 3 games in a row in 2v8, 2 as survivor, 1 as killer. In ALL 3 of them where there TWO survivors that straight up gave up, trolled and grieved. And the worst one was the last one I had as a survivor, where there were 2 survivors that did NOTHING all game, refused to do gens and j7 comments 281 views last activity

They already have, killing someone before 6 hooks is tunneling. The outrage just proves that even though something was DIRECTLY stated as being toxic and in need of punishing, there will always be people trying to move the goalposts. There is never a single instance in this game where killing someone before 6 hooks is a viable strat. And before I have people trying to go off on me for being a "7 comments 181 views last activity

So a few years ago on PTB, BHVR tested this new idea called "The Finisher Mori" where they had some anti-slugging (yay) with all survivors getting a basekit Unbreakable (no recovery bonus.) However, if at any time all remaining survivors were hooked or slugged, the game ended. All of them died and the last survivor downed was instantly killed with a Mori. You have No Mither and Unbreakable the ac15 comments 311 views last activity

I feel Like I haven't seen enough discussion talking about Myers rework So I wanna ask, how we feeling about the Myers rework, in my opinion I just don't like his rework, mainly the dash ability that he has in his kit Just felt like it was implemented very poorly not feeling like Myers at all13 comments 291 views last activity

Why not add: - Elusive No Clip with Endurance Remove the unhooked Survivors aura from Floods of Rage This part is relatively unintrusive and would certainly be worth throwing up to the PTB/live to see their effect on the game. You can then look at adding further effects if needed.3 comments 91 views last activity

Michael Myers new attack IS NOT A DASH!!!! I really hate this fascination that Myers is 100% ruined cause of a “dash” that’s not even a dash it’s just a super coup de grace lunge And btw I’m sick of this dash slop term. It was only invented cause of annoying killer deigns but now it’s just thrown around and generalized oh a killer can move quickly dash, a killer can quickly get to a place da36 comments 681 views last activity

As a killer, the times I slug are: -I down / hook a survivor, and am actively aware there are 1 to 3 other survivors nearby. (This happens 9:10 matches, where most of the survivors will just gang around a hook or body to recover the downed person instead of repairing gens to pressure me to leave) -I am facing a survivor I know has perks that will benefit them more if I hook them, in which case1 comments 21 views last activity

How I would implement an Anti-tunnel feature that WONT make every Killer crash out, with only 1 perkMy idea would be simple. Giga buff pain res. Scourge Hook: Pain Resonance 6 hooks turn to scourge hooks, you have 4 tokens. When you hook a survivor on a Scourge Hook, lose one token - if the survivor was a unique hook, the generator with the highest repair explodes, loses 50% of its repair progress, reveals survivors who worked on it by making them scream, and that specific generator gains a3 comments 71 views last activity

Could someone please explain the mindset behind the response? Learn to play the killer instead of slugging and tunneling. I was under the assumption those two were strategies. Very often I'm forced to slug; survivor crawls under pallet and I am actively aware 2, sometimes all 3 other survivors are right around the corner far enough away the downed survivor is picked up if I chase, and close enoug2 comments 111 views last activity

BHVR knows the anti-hooking (not tunneling by definition) changes suck, they wouldn’t allow them to be toggled off in private games if they didn’t. They’re know it’s a slap in the face to add extra pallets to increase looping while also decreasing most forms of regression that don’t require constant catching and downing of survivors. They know this entire patch is extremely survivor biased and th23 comments 431 views last activity

Forget all the "Anti tunnel/slugging changes will ruin/save the game," stop making survivors hot! That's the most overpowered ######### in the game!
