At first I was excited for this year's anniversary event and to grind bp for Springtrap but after loseing 10 games and only winning two games and getting 2 draws I've come to the conclusion that I'm reminded how much I hate how survivor/swf sided this game is and the massive unbalanced(*Cough* Gen rushing perks Cough ) factors Im trying to chill but literally every match feels like a tournamen6 comments 131 views last activity

Hello friends (this isn't Otz) , I’d like to share an idea I’ve had for a long time to help reduce, even if just a little, the disparity between killers, and try to close the gap between high-tier and low-tier killers. It would also help low-tier killers in general (for context, I’m a killer main, but I also enjoy playing as survivor). My idea is to give killers “Passive Perks.” Each kille4 comments 22 views last activity

If all survivors are either hooked or downed and they all abandon, I as killer, the feature to abandon now becomes available. Does this count as a draw for me in MMR? Do I need to wait for the bots to die off for it to count as a win? Also, now that we have stats available, do those count as kills in my kill rate percentage?12 comments 551 views last activity

Why does the game have anti-camping, but no anti-genrash? Why do developers ALWAYS listen only to the majority of weak, incompetent players when planning balance? How much longer can they turn survival horror into a clown show? The game has been stagnating and degrading for years without any interesting changes. Each new chapter introduces a useless, weak killer. Apart from skins, there is abso5 comments 111 views last activity

Vecna using mage hand to pull up a pallet is STILL bugged where survivors can throw it down immediately stunning you, I honestly do not care the bug is there as there are so many on so many killers what is so irritating is when you guys say you "fixed" it when you in fact DID NOT. I'm sorry you guys get so many complaint wah wah posts like this but COME ON! STOP IT! Either leave the bug in or s8 comments 81 views last activity

This isn't going to be a rant about balance or anything. This is PURELY opinion, if your thoughts are different, thats fine. I've been playing survivor more often than I use to with the new rift system. I still consider myself a killer main, but for the 20% of my games that I play survivor... about half is as SoloQ and half is with at least 1 other person. Last night I played afew Solo games bef2 comments 91 views last activity

So we haven't received two Survivors in the same chapter since Tools of Torment and I'm worried we might get two new Teamwork Perks. I don't think either of them will come with a Boon or invocation.3 comments 51 views last activity

I've been having a lot of fun with the hookless challenge, and now you can too! This is a Bubba Build (and it only really works with Bubba tbh). No add ons are required, so go buck wild! The perks, however, are integral to the strategy. In order to play the Hookless Challenge, you're bringing NOED, Rancor, Game Afoot, and Remember Me.

Current situtation and some microissues: Yesterday DbD almost broke 121k players. https://steamdb.info/app/381210/charts/ Reasons: FNAF & anni hype (sales), TCM died and currently no other big releases. Not because the game overall have improved significantly in the last months. Still issues with cheaters, imbalances in killer for different mmrs, maps, swfs and bugs. We even saw rollba6 comments 422 views last activity

The Unknown needs a buff. After playing dozens of matches with him, it’s clear that his power is too easy to counter against experienced survivors. UVX Blast is easily avoided with basic line-of-sight and spacing, and the teleport is slow, predictable, and rarely creates real pressure. Survivors who pre-drop, stick together, or know how to rotate efficiently can shut him down completely.4 comments 171 views last activity

So do you also have in every bloodweb 1 of each event item type today? I have manually spend 600k BP and in every blood web there is event cake, toolbox, medkit and flashlight… Like sorry, but whole 50 level bloodweb for 1 cake is so bad… I really hope it's just bugged and they fix it asap3 comments 71 views last activity

The map would be based on Cuesta Verde, and could even have coffins and corpses rise from the ground throughout the trial. The killer would be Reverend Henry Kane, with his killer name being The Beast. His power could involve possessing various objects from the movies that are scattered around the map. These objects could include things like the clown0 comments 11 views last activity

If you tunnel learn how to play better I just wish DS and OTR would work in end game and stop giving killers a free kill just because they can’t win. They should earn a kill not given to them just because they are bad at the game21 comments 161 views last activity

I was excited for this chapter but as a survivor main I am no longer happy with its release. This killer can teleport to gens basically with the doors and becomes undetectable and teleports to gens. On top of that he is ranged and melee killer and after adding all the meta perks he is almost unescapable unless the killer is a baby killer.29 comments 561 views last activity

There's a big awesome sale going on in the cosmetic store, I have been saving up Iri Shards for the occassion, been wanting that Elodie outfit for a while. However, it still costs it's usual price. Is there a reason that it's not on sale? I understand it's community made, so they can't sell it for money. Though I was hoping perhaps they could sell it for cheaper with Iri shards. :c1 comments 51 views last activity

This event so far is pretty disappointing. The very fact that compared to last year, you get way less cakes for the bp you spend, particularly on survivor. Its quite obvious and provable the bloodwebs have been purposefully reduced in cake spawns. But even worse than that, if you choose not to bring a Coconut Scream Pie, and instead lets say bring a Screech Cobbler. You will literally be sacrif3 comments 682 views last activity

AFK Crows Increased the intervals at which AFK Crows are gained to 120/140/180 seconds (was 60/75/90 seconds). Increased the Grace Period before AFK points start accruing to 30 seconds (was 10 seconds). Decreased the rate at which AFK points accrue while moving to 25% (was 50%).

So new event comes out and they finally make a new wraith skin and you can't even get the full outfit day 1. You have to complete a whole bunch of quests that's spread across days of waiting in between each outfit piece.

The heart VFX (terror radius visualization) isn’t for people who are deaf. It was made purely to make the game easier for regular survivors with perfectly good hearing. Here’s why: Pretend you're deaf and try playing the game for just a few seconds. The match starts and you begin repairing the generator right in front of you. A skill check pops up! But wait—you can’t hear the skill chec13 comments 2,282 views last activity

I was playing survivor, literally AT an exit gate. BOOM. Game over. You lose ALL your BP too. Its extremely frustrating. I went through hell that round to survive and nearly died till the server killed me instead.5 comments 582 views last activity

DBD has a lot of developer quotes that they put into the loading screens, they've done this almost every single year and it's a fine and cute thing to do. But a developer put "I dont like Skull Merchant either lol" as a joke, and now they are being harassed over it. Ive seen a massive witchhunting campaign against this single person, who mind you, is a VFX Artist, and probably had no say in the45 comments 1,231 views last activity

Hello everyone, Since the problem with Killers which slug for the 4K is such a big problem I made some mental gymnastics. If the hatch would spawn if only 2 Survivors are left, the problem should be fixed, but now comes the catch if one survivor escapes through the hatch, the other will be moried instantly. Ofcourse the hatch couldn´t be closed by the Killer so that a slugged Survivor can9 comments 292 views last activity

No abandon button, no way to suicide on hook, and you have to finish totems or chests or otherwise you get crows. Its effectively a free 2k unless you manage to sneakily do a totem or a chest. I really hope this means slugging will effectively become non-viable soon through means of basekit self-pickups(there are balanced ways to implement that), or the AFK system needs to be effectively disab65 comments 2,041 views last activity

After the anniversary event update, my p100 killers are not getting iri add ons. I suspect the coconut scream pie offering is replacing the iri slot. Please fix this, I use several builds that require the iri add ons. thank you.1 comments 71 views last activity

Base-Kit Borrowed Time Endurance Limitation • The base-kit Endurance effect (Borrowed Time) granted to Survivors after being unhooked now deactivates if the unhook occurs within 32 meters of a powered exit gate . This change is intended to limit abuse of base-kit Endurance during the endgame and encourage more strategic unhooks.

It's the same problem like last year. I just spend 500k bloodpoints on a killer and got like 9 cakes. But then a round after I spend like 270k bloodpoints on a survivor and got 13 cakes and 7 anniversary items. How is that fair? Survivors get special items while Killers don't even get any meme anniversary addon like with the Halloween Event. And now they even get more cakes.19 comments 431 views last activity

So I got the newsletter / email (think its litterally only second one I ever got!) The title says the Final Twisted Masquerade is upon us. So any devs wanna comment on if we'll get something totally new next year? Or going to leave us to speculate?

Why are recent perks added with such a low amount of aura reading? It makes the perk pretty much worthless without any Aura read extenders, is this the intention? to be useless without those perks?

why does this dude get 20 whole seconds of undetectable (30 seconds with an addon) after using a power that has no cool down basically making him stealthy for almost the entire match while a killer like demo gets it for only 5 seconds while announcing he's tping to the entire map? or sadako that has a lullaby in stealth that pretty much puts an arrow on her head saying i am here despite only bei8 comments 111 views last activity

Despite you know.. the fact it was entirely killer sided? I went on like a 150 winstreak with Onryo last anniversary. It's obvious how strong the killer powers are and what needed to be changed. Yet BHVR felt comfortable releasing it in its current state a second time?4 comments 141 views last activity

I know with the new rift system, alot of ppl were concerned about how difficult it would be to complete. Just wondering how it's going for everyone. I know I still have quite abit to finish for the milestones and I've maybe gotten about half of the dailies done, but managed to hit the deep rift section today, so... I think I'll be able to hit tier 100 pretty easily before it's over.28 comments 511 views last activity

I caught it right before it disappeared, so I didn't catch who said it, but the quote about Snug's paw print being modeled after a dev's senior pup hit me in the feels. ❤️ I love details like those.

Survivors have to deal with a lot when it comes to specific killers, so it's not hard to understand why so many people create tier lists of "Most Hated" for the killers themselves, but the Perks can go on any killer. So I ask you, the community, what Killer perks do you find the Most annoying, broken, and unfair feeling? Please elaborate why if you feel up to it.

I already knew BHVR didn't care about Survivors, but this latest update just further proves it. It's unplayable now. You get crows even when you're moving. Heck, I ended up with three while trying to open the Exit Gate because I had to do it slowly, since I was against Springtrap, and since his doors spawn next to the generators, he was easily keeping tabs on both doors.

All the distinct things are kinda not worth going for because optimal and generic&boring play is just this much more consistent Cameras are not worth it because there are plenty of other clues to go off anyway Doors are nice but people are figuring out prerunning with built-in clues and it's going to get worse Doors are kinda too good for gen control but the killer is overall too mid for40 comments 1,231 views last activity
