  • I noticed all jigsaw map offerings haven't been working, and it is not longer available in custom games as well. I haven't seen mention anywhere that it was being removed? Is it temporarily disabled or permanently gone?

  • So if you didn't know Overwatch is getting a sequel game & what makes it unique is that both OW1 & 2 players can queue up with each other, but OW2 will have its own separate gamemode & skins. Overwatch was extremely popular when it came out & alot of games were copying their formula, so it's possible it could happen again with games creating an OW2 like sequel. Opinions?

  • So I heard that this is ‘temporary’ the video saving option on switch but it’s kinda unfair. I feel like BVHR favors PC most and than PS4 along w XBOX. IDK about mobile, I never played but I’m sure they don’t get a lot either but I might be wrong. Aside that, all consoles and PC can save clips but Switch players can’t…Why? Either give it to everyone or don’t. Simple

  • Does anyone know how many Bloodpoints it takes to go from level 1 to level 50 on a killer? I know 1 million gets you to around 35. How much for the last 15 levels?

  • It's been over 6 month's since the clown rework and since our boy is one of the focal points of the current tome I thought it worth discussing whether or not these reworks are really helping killers. I haven't played more than a few games with him since and I found the antidote severely lacking. There are very few reasons to wait 2.5 seconds to get a 5 second speed boost or to bring antidote addo

For the last day and a half i've been attempting to get the power moves achievment, and have been met with the most agonizingly stupid, selfish, and straight up cowardly solo q's i have ever seen. Absolutely nobody has ANY confidence to unhook if even the faintest god damn terror radius starts playing when they get near my hook. I trust solo q's for one second to ge

  • My router decided to go into maintance just as the match finished. You were a bill, steve, jake and nea. I am on that 'hit exposed survivors' challenge and I hate it about as much as I hate my router right now. You were lovely, and I hope I didn't confuse you too much. Good luck in your next matches

However, at the end of their announcement post they said this : We know that this means that you can no longer buy stranger things content from the store and the map will be disabled, however they do say this :

  • Why didn't the devs just make Lucky Break work the same way as Iron Will? Blood pools are reduced by 50%/75%/100% The current iteration is still meme worthy as it requires both additional perks / items in order to get any real value out of it. Making it work in the same way as Iron Will would make it so that the only thing you'd need to get consistent value out of it would be Iron Will as oppo

  • Because I have to be able to hear what is going on at home I can not wear headphones during gameplay. How important are they to playing well? Do they make a big difference in determining where other players are? Does it make game noises more accurate, like is the Huntress still super loud even though she is a mile away from you?

  • So, nemesis is quite decent killer, nothing too strong but not really weak either. Probably won't get any balance changes for couple years if ever (at least not big ones unlike the few from the new PTB). Buuut I consider him lacking in the thematic aspect of beiing THE NEMESIS, you know, the massive deadly mutated super soldier. His power imo isn't enough hard hitting when compared to other kill

Today is 7/14/21 (or 14/7/21 for those that use DD/MM/YY format), so it has been 29 days. That's basically a month. A month of the game being flat-out unplayable on most consoles.

  • I remember the first months of Blight people were calling him a mediocre killer and not a lot people were playing him even though it was BETTER than now due to undying not being nerfed and being able to Jflick. I'm curious what pushed so many people into playing this killer, what made you change your mind or give him a chance.

  • I recently come across this console killer with my AT team a few time, the killer can just find the survivors in second and he is not bringing Lethal Pursue. Even when we go and hide in locker (we think he brought BBQ and yes, he brought it), he still manage to find us out. Is there anyway to report the player? We are playing on Steam and because of him we decided to close the crossplay function.

  • Got nothing against the perk, think it's quite neat especially to get the pressure going early. But what are you suppose to do when you spawn in a dead zone and the killer spawns near you too. Just had a game against a Blight and already getting rushed and whacked 2 seconds into the game, and because it's Blight I'm not making it to anywhere with a loop or window. Ever since these map reworks

  • Hello everyone! I’ve been playing this game for about a month maybe? In that time, I’ve played overwhelmingly as Survivor and have really been having fun. I’m only at rank 13, but really enjoying it for the most part. Anyway, I have rarely played Killer (only rank 18) and decided to play it yesterday. I queued up as Hillbilly, who was only level 2.

  • This observation ties into frequent complaints here on the forum, such as "killers are playing sweaty" or "killer players are always using the strongest killers/addons". Over the past few weeks, I've made an observation while playing killer that leaves me just two choices, if I want to win my matches: either camp/tunnel more and go for fewer hook states or play stronger killers. I like playing

  • After reading a lot about Dead Hard, I was wondering what exhaustion perk you would run if it doesn't exist. I mean, if DH is the one you use/would use. If we had no Dead Hard, I'd run Sprint Burst. I already switch a lot between DH and SB. I like the fact it's useful outside of chases: you can run faster to sit on another generator, to make a save, to escape through the Exit Gates... And contr

But then I started thinking about how being able to turn

I want to play pinhead and I want to main him, but a part of me is really expecting the game to run horribly. I am just hoping the devs have a console tester of some sorts and the performance won't be horrendous

  • In the beginning of the match there is nothing else to do then gens. So one gets chased while 3 survivor do gens. Then after the first down, one is hooked, another is rescuing and healing and a third one gets chased. And with that the gen progress slows down, if the killer can keep up with the hooking. I personally see it only as an average start when two gens get done before the first hook. 1 g

  • Can we axe Haddonfield? It's objectively the worst map in the game for Killers, literally the only ones that can perform well against a competent team are ones like Trapper or Hag that can counter the literal dozens of vaults and balanced landing spots.

  • As we're nearing the release of Pinhead, I've found myself feeling quite disappointed at the sheer lack of substance on display with the next "chapter". To start, I don't mean to sound ungrateful - Pinhead has clearly had a lot of passion and effort put into him and I'm very glad to see it. I'm genuinely looking forward to learning and playing him.

I chased him first and hooked him, then planted Charlotte near the hook (not facecamping distance) to use Victor. Found someone healthy and pounced with Victor successfully. At the same time, the TTV got rescued so I went back to the hook. At this point, the rescuer hid somewhere because I looked around a b

Would Hellraiser leave dbd?

  • For example: During your match you are chasing a claudette, and you walk through a pallet. A nea walks up from behind and slaps you with it, and teabags you when you turn around. Do you hold a grudge and focus down the nea when the opportunity arises? Or do you just let it go? Would like to hear from some of the killers here if they hold grudges like that.

All you need is Dark Devotion, Iridescent Seal of Metatron, and ideally something that inflicts Exposed like Haunted Grounds or something to make the survivors afraid to rescue. Down your Obsession with a basic attack, and send them off to a Cage - now the caged Obsession is radiating a 32m TR while you're undetectable, and thanks to Metatron, been

  • How would a power that caused survivors to leave their bodies behind work? I'm imagining something like you hit them with your power and then an intangible version of that survivor is hit out of their physical body and the survivor player is in control of said intangible version. Maybe they are invisible to other survivors, but that's the most I have for an idea like this.
