  • Console player here. I have a trope for learning people when everyone calls them bad and forgotten. And I kinda wanna learn trickster(mainly cuz that new outfit looks nice). But I was wondering if he is worth it. Ik he's bad for the most part but if I put the time into it will it worth anything.

  • I played him a whole day. His tentacle hitbox is so thin and bad designed. If you miss a hit, the survivor has enough time to run away. When you infect somebody, they get a sprint burst that gets so annoying and makes the chase last longer. Sometimes his attack misses when you try to hit them while vaulting a window, I'd rather play PH at this point. This guy is slow as hell, gives no pressure an

  • The Devs worked hard to change Coldwind recently and yeah, it looks cool and detailed. However, it still is so unfun and hard to play at as killer. Honestly, being so bright too makes me dislike it more. I get Coldwind probably 50% of the time which is really frustrating, as many agree that those are the worst maps for killers. As an idea, I think it would be so much better if Coldwind lowered

  • Its finally time. Its been time since SWF was introduced, but with the size of the player base, the mainstream knowledge of this game, the inability to actually balance SWF and the prevalence of cosmetic items, BHVR can do this. Make an unranked where SWF is not allowed, so people can be casual, then make a ranked mode where SWF is allowed, and give away cosmetic awards and charms for killers and

  • It's getting ROUGGGH. I'm wondering if it's because I put DBD on my external HDD (thought it would be faster but idk I might switch back. I'm curious if it's a common problem with the patch for anyone? My ps4 is also ancient and has had its HDD replaced at least twice. So it could just be struggling in that sense. Wanted to ask if anyone else has. It suuuuuucks dude I freeze for a solid 1.5

  • I'd like to formally request that you make skins for the zombies, because Herald, Jerry and Stacy all needs outfits, they look very shabby and would like to shamble around with skins.

  • I have been playing the game for three years and am baffled by the new T Virus infection status for survivors. What does it do to them? I know you turn blue amd it seems like you occasionally vomit but is that it? Does giving yourself a vaccine reduce the mutation rate? Even if it does why would you use one? I'm hoping I'm missing something but based on what I can find and my gameplay experience

  • Okay so I don't know if this is a widespread bug or not, but once you complete the Bot Matches all of your cosmetics will be reset. That's not the issue though it has been acknowledged and a fix being looked into, thankfully. No, sometimes you may open your inventory on a character and just find cosmetics missing. For me, it was my Wraith- I had none of the head pieces in my Inventory (including

  • DCing right before the last survivor(s) escape. What are you guys accomplishing? In both situations you've already lost, and whether you DC or not has next to zero effect on anybody else. You, however, lose all emblems, bloodpoints, challenge or ritual progress, and you get a penalty. For the survivor who DCs, you actually help the killer a bit because they get to keep a hook and don't have to sp

  • I wanted to test the new Tutorial mode added with the Resident Evil chapter specially for "Kill the bots" feature, and of course I need to finish the survivor tutorial first, but when I escape through the hatch or through the gate the "match" crashes and says there was a synchronization error, error 411 to be more specific Which is strange because the game is working normally so far, my Nemesis

  • Nea already got one this year and she will get new one too. Also Zarina had cosmetic in rifts and she will get one too. Dwight got 2 new cosmetics this year. Kate! She is queen and she deserves new cosmetics. Please BHVR, give us and you can take our money.

  • Eruption has 10 second less cooldown, it incapacitates survivors currently on that gen potentially stopping game winning repairs from being done, it is applied to multiple generators (being kicked first of course), can be activated with any ability that can down a survivor (not just basic attacks) and has zero range limit. While Surge is only 2% more regression, has a 32m range, only applies to b

  • Title basically didn't play killer in a while so I bounced back to 20. 90% of my games are 4 men stack SWF below rank 10. I'm a red rank killer so I don't care but #########? On the survivor side its the opposite. I play solo 99% of the time, I'm rank 8, and 95% of my allies in the last 15 games are between rank 15 and 20 ???

  • So i was playing legion on wreckers yard and i went against a hacker. I of course reported them but the issue i had was less the hacker but the other survivors. Two of them took full advantage of the situation and basically did all the unpleasant things, tbagging, clicking, not doing gens etc. Why is that? Why would you do that? Also To the Feng that gave me the mercy kill thank you.

  • I'm honestly getting discouraged enough to stop playing this game for a while. I'm so tired of being Gen rushed by a bunch of red ranks and i'm only a green rank. there is no fairness in that at all. And then to top it off, when the match is obviously over, the gates are open, it adds insult to injury when the survivors just run around the map and hang out in the gate taunting you when you don't

  • Soo, now after these few days Nemesis is out, even hardstuck minded fans see that he's not A tier (wink wink to those who spit at me at Demo vs Nemesis talk) 1 thing that need to be said is that title is not really relatable to what I'm planning to say. I think changes to be significant. here are they: Every survivor on the beggining of the game is infected : that will solve the nemesis p

  • I see all this threads about tinkerer, dead hard, noed, even bbq. But imo they are all fine. What we need right now is buffing weak perks, not nerfing stronger ones. Noed is a little exception bc it feels annoying if a facecamping killer gets one kill more, but its not op and when the killer played the match to win and not to facecamp from the start its a deserved powerboost imo. But back to th

  • At the moment solo survivors are at a massive informational disadvantage compared to SWF. BHVR has acknowledged this but so far has not made any actual changes. So what are everyone's thoughts on the best way to improve this situation? One way would be in-game comms or at least a communication wheel for simple comments such as "Going for a Save!" . My headcanon being that the survivors have w

  • ... but wish they were better. The zombies normal movement speed is 1 meter per second, and honsestly this is horrendously abusable. They simply can't do anything if left at this value, or even at 1.25 m/s which is available with 1 brown add-on. TBH I've played many games as Nemesis, and the only times they have ever been useful in any trial is when I devote 2 add-ons to increase their movement s

  • I am sure someone has noticed this, but I figured I would make a post anyway. I wanted to talk about about Nemesis’s addons, three in particular. First one is T-Virus Sample(Considerably increases mutation rate when destroying zombies with a tentacle strike). This addon is Green rarity. Ok nothing wrong there. Next is Zombie Heart, which is a yellow rarity (Moderately increases mutation rate wh

  • There is a severe lack of understanding and generalization on the survivor's end when it comes to tunneling and camping. Many cannot or will not distinguish between the timings of these tactics and when a killer was actually trying to be nice and will call the killer a camper or tunneller regardless. Camping at end-game: Camper Camping at 5 gens: Camper. Slugging at end-game: Try-hard Sluggi

  • Okay, okay, okay. I know that it isn’t the “greatest” totem related perk that we have, but still I have to give it props. There has been at least three times in the last couple of days (I haven’t been using it much, honestly) where I have managed to cleanse a fairly closely guarded lit totem that I wouldn’t have been able to do without that added 20% stacking effect. Paired with small game it can

  • I dont have any numbers in mind, but i think some maps are better for zombies than others, so maybe a big open map could have 3 zombies and a small indoor map like the game only one? What do you guys think? Is balancing via zombie numbers ( or maybe different respawn times on maps) a possible way to go in the future?

  • Just had trial against a Team of Davids and Leons. Mid Chases there will always be a click noise and a second later a Flashbang. I still cant react to it on time... I don't know if I suck or it's just that strong. I got hit by Flashbangs in 6 Chases and the other two Flashbangs was a miss (6+ Flashbangs in the trial). It was annoying af.

  • Like it just seems odd that you can't stack the effect, given the only other perk that increase the fov is Monitor and Abuse which increases it by a WHOPPING 3%... That's it, 3% increase. A maximum of 18%. And this 18% increase doesn't even last the whole game, because the second you enter a chase you lose that extra 3% for the duration of the chase. Like why put this limit?
