People are heavily overestimating how good new Built to Last will be. The amount of time Built to Last supposedly saves you on generators is offset by the time you have to spend finding a locker, opening it, sitting inside for a while and then leaving. You're not actually saving time, because that time you wasted could've been spent doing the generator anyway. The only thing this might help with2 comments 41 views last activity

Hey everyone, bit of a different post today, and while I don’t usually cover topical DBD matters, I really wanted to give my thoughts about the recent developer updates. Now that both parts of the post are out and there are some twitter reveals of some addons as well, I think I can give some of my views after thinking it over. I’ll cover each aspect starting from the first post. Without further i1 comments 41 views last activity

Oni's power will only do one state of damage instead of downing. We have compensated Oni players by increasing the amount of times the Oni screams in the lobby. Part two: the "buff" to appease killer players: The Pig now places RBTs .01 seconds faster onto survivors. Also we have heard you guys loud and clear about box rng, so we decided we will leave the rng the same and instead give her some m5 comments 171 views last activity

I seriously don't understand this. If you are going to sit there and split up on 3 different gens at the start of the round, and rush gens to try and get out 5 minutes later. Why do survivors complain if the killer decides to tunnel and camp then? Tunneling allows more pressure to get someone out of the game, and camping typically gets people off generators a lot of the times at least 2 of the 373 comments 1,731 views last activity

Personally for me, I'm probably going to go with the Trapper. From his name to his design, he just doesn't really catch much attention. Let me know what killer doesn't appeal to you guys in terms of design wise. This can include their lore, character design, etc.78 comments 1,113 views last activity

In dev update 1 they mentioned tweaking around some killer add-ons. I was shocked when I didn’t see legion on the list, a lot of legions add ons are laughably bad. Much like the state of the killer themselves, laughable and sad. Legion needs help and I thought for sure they’d get some add on tweaks. When they didn’t I thought “oh well they must have something cooked up for legion in the 2nd upda2 comments 71 views last activity

Basically the title. The servers already aren't very good considering you get hit by hatchets or window vaults from downtown so I hope connection will remain most important in the queue selection process. Considering I've seen 200 ms players on my team and " that shouldn't have hit" moments every game, Idk how much it matters for matchmaking anymore. I want matches to be close and fun but it see0 comments 11 views last activity

hey Guys I was wondering if anyone could help me out. I play dbd all the time and I recently bought it for my little brother but LB on the Xbox remote doesn’t seem to work for the skill checks we even got new control era and it still won’t work , it does work for running just not for any of the skill checks. Does anyone know how to fix this ?1 comments 91 views last activity

So what if the hex just stayed the whole game, instead of after the last gen pops? Now you might be thinking that this is supposed to be a nerf. But its real intention is to make the gameplay a lot more fun. So, put yourself in the position of a survivor playing against spirit. There aren't any signs of a hex yet, and you happen upon a hex totem. You will probably think they are a baby that's run8 comments 91 views last activity

I am here to talk about comparing DBD to other games in the genre. Same thing goes for comparing the others to the others. The other games in this style are honestly nothing alike. VHS, DBD, F13, REsistance, Predator, Last Year, and more can't easily be compared each other. They are very different games. REsistance is nothing like DBD. It has its own personality and fanbase. F13 does. Predator do34 comments 511 views last activity

So killers getting nerfed, bad/unused addons will get replaced with meme addons. Killers have more objectives (boon totems, which btw can just keep getting replaced unlike killer) and our buffs to a useless perk now applys blindness? Wow thanks, great buff! Honestly these are the type of things that put people off killer let alone see so few variations in perks and killers themselves. Killers ar9 comments 241 views last activity

The developer update stated that the Killer can turn a boon totem back into a dull totem. Does that mean a survivor can then turn it back into a boon totem? Please tell me it's a one-time only perk, because otherwise that is just ridiculous. The last thing a Killer should have to worry about is repeatedly hunting down totems while they juggle seven generators and four survivors.23 comments 341 views last activity

:/ I can't listen to NA streamers who have played slinger twice in their life and think they know everything about slinger. Oh my god. Nor can I stand reading the same argument being made 70 times over even though I could easily disprove all of them but I'm lazy. I'm looking at otter pictures and potential nemesis skins to make me comfortable. Why am I struggling. Have an otter for clicking on25 comments 161 views last activity

Note: I'm pasting a lot of what I said from documents/DMs I've made. Just in case things flow awkwardly, now you know why. Commodious toolbox saves 10.7 seconds without add-ons/perks The toolbox has 32 charges by default. For the sake of this experiment, we'll assume to have 8 extra charges in the form of an add-on. Not the best (12 charges) but nothing to scoff at and 1 BNP. 10.7/32=0.3343750 comments 31 views last activity

Wasn't the entire point that he can sneak up on survivors and take pot shots?

Because of this change, I've been able to get so many killer adepts much more easily. Sure the teams I'm facing aren't necessarily easier, but it requires much less to double pip at Ash ranks in such a way that I can afford not running the best perks and it's made adepting a nice and breezy process. Anyone else had this fortune?5 comments 31 views last activity

Boon totems and how this is adding to the problem of Survivors only having 1 objective [PLEASE READ]Dead By Daylight is a game that features 2 sides that go against each other to achieve opposite objectives. 4 Survivors enter the game with one main focus: Finish enough Generators so that they can power the exit gates, open the exit gates, and escape.

Oh no! A survivor can take a high risk/high reward hex perk as well! This could waste some of the killers absolutely precious time! Woe is us killer mains 🤡 👺 Boon totems aren't going to change anything for us when you really think about it.

How do you think the boon perks will affect the survivors once the totem it blessed? Will it work as an area of effect or as normal hex perks do? Feel free to leave your theories or opinions of the new perk type in the comments! :D7 comments 51 views last activity

Just keep on escaping. Last 5 games killer got 1-3 hooks max and by then the gens were done. All you have to do is split up, focus on gens, and if the killer commits to any kind of chase its GG. I'm not scared of killers anymore and that is boring. Can't believe they are adding boon totems as an extra task for killers to focus on, its such a stupid idea.0 comments 31 views last activity

"Boon Totem and these blessings are designed to offer comfort to the Survivor Team, a small safe haven." - Mid-Chapter Developer Update | September 2021 - Part 2. safe haven : a place of refuge or security.

Hooks are a necessary evil and camping the first hook is becoming a winning strategy for some killers. Case in point, me versus a devotion 25 killer: https://youtu.be/F9qZVX_tpiU The above game, as noted in-game, is becoming a proven strategy to win previously unwinnable games, but I suspect only the most frustrated killers will adopt this worst-case4 comments 41 views last activity

Removing any sorts of mind game from the spirit, being able to "know" where she is with sounds and be able to see where she precisely is with the dust she will leave while phasing, why not simply make her totally visible at this point and spirit can't see survivors at this point? The dust itself isn't too awful and could help with some tracking but totally removing mind games is the worse thi42 comments 661 views last activity

I know many others ask about this but I thought I also ask this as well. I know I should just wait and see what the boon totem does but I keep seeing that Boon totems can be relit after a killer cleanses it. I was wondering why do they need to be relit? Why can’t they there a limit use on them? I mean I understand that survivors don’t want to deal with No- Ed and that’s fine. But what I mean so5 comments 61 views last activity

Survivors choose where to place their boons, but killers cant choose where to put their Hexs totems?Lets ignore the fact the it was confirmed that blessing a hex totem turns it into a boon totem. Lets ignore that if a killer snuffs out a boon that used to be a hex, the hex is still gone for the rest of the game. And lets ignore the fact that Killers are getting another objective to worry about when time is never on their side.

Remove his chain. Its a joke but I really wonder what would become of slinger if he didnt have a chain. He just cross maps someone with a spike through the head. Personally I really can think of much to up his 1v4 maybe he could like idk make traps since he is meant to be a genuis but that doesnt really feel slinger imo. You could give him Maurice for the full YEE HAW experience and some mobi36 comments 291 views last activity

Just now, I just tried out Nemesis that I bought with my money for the sake of entertainment but I am led with disappointment.

I'm concerned that we're only getting a midchapter with this many changes to it because Mclean wanted to leave DBD on a high note by pouring his heart and soul into this patch. compared to literally every other patch we've had since the 5th anniversary the norm was 2/3 perk changes , a few add on tweaks for one or two killers and some tweaking to the base power of the most recently released k3 comments 91 views last activity

I've recently bought this game after watching some videos on it and playing the mobile version and it looked and felt like something I'd really enjoy.

I’m sure there will be a lot of criticisms, so I just wanted to point out the stuff that is really good about this update: Plague buffs!

This post is not at all me bragging about my MMR. In fact, I'm fairly terrible as killer. I rarely play killer with under 100 hours in killer. I tend to just do dailies and dip out. The last week, I have gotten nothing but survivors with 1000k hours or more. Some swfs, some solo but nonetheless survivors that could 5 gen run me.
