The animatronic feels awful to go against. His base kit is overtuned and it must be hell for new players. I propose: Reduce the Undetectable status effect to 10 seconds (was 20 seconds). Similar to the Demogorgon, the Undetectable status effect shouldn't last that long. With add-ons, it can go up to 30 seconds, which allows him to cross the entire map and start and finish a chase without even ne7 comments 381 views last activity

Survivors have found a way to infinite head on stun a killer with the Head on and Vigil https://x.com/Hey_Blakee/status/1935974943402996186?t=mLgbfHJaAt8C6AGKfRnSpg&s=198 comments 271 views last activity

Not far enough: Anti-camp - rarely ever works, killers still hard camp all day long Example: killer proxy camps, spends time zoning survivors, then returns to the hook to face camp. The anti-camp feature won't activate when it really should. The fact the devs don't account for this by making the anti-camp more aggressive when a killer returns to the hook shows they aren't serious. Ant-tunnel16 comments 461 views last activity

The updates and penalties are just too extreme. It might be a good idea to walk this back and slowly try implementing some of the elements. The AFK stuff is way to aggressive and equating AFK to a disconnect is a complete joke. This update has made the game unplayable.6 comments 191 views last activity

She’s bugged beyond means. I have tons of videos to show if needed. Reports have been sent in. She barely functions. Every aspect of her and her power is bugged. You name it, she’s got it, you want it, she has it…even if you don’t. “Smell that fish and swine? There be filthy rats out and about” yeah - that’s her ass. When you load in, you spawn with your camera inside her butt. 🤣 She needs14 comments 231 views last activity

What i mean is that the animatronic in a straight line scenario after hitting a survivor with the axe gains way more distance than huntress, i wanted to know if it is an oversight side effect of him actually becoming 115 without the axe, or if the devs actually intended for him to get that bonification of hitting the power to make it easir for the following m1 or grab. If you do the axe m1 side8 comments 531 views last activity

Has the changes like "GO NEXT" HOOKS & Maps being 20% used, change your gameplay or how much u play?Everyone in my family has practically quit playing and are actively looking for a new game and game play is down from multiple hours each, to playing less than an hour with most of us 6 just playing one game of each side just for the daily bonus but everyone is talking of quitting. Killers didnt need to become less challenging and if you say they haven't, you cant be a very good killer, sorry.26 comments 817 views last activity

I'm sick and tired of playing against killers with 300+ ms latency. Especially since they know they're abusing it by the fact they swing at every pallet. Or better yet just don't let someone play if their ping is too high. Your ######### Internet should not make the game actively worse for everybody else...18 comments 491 views last activity

I've been playing Springtrap and, while I've found the axe just a less fun version of the Huntress' hatchets most of the time, the security doors are pretty nice because they allow you to move back and forth without a cooldown, and they don't require you to run a distance like the Xenomorph, the time it takes between doors is always the same. But there is a problem with that: with the positions t3 comments 151 views last activity

Fready is broken he should at least get skillcheks for grabs or something He is invisible after geting out of a door for like 3 seconds. The hachet goes on a diferent direction that he is aiming at. The sound of the whole map is shifted after an interaction with him some times from the beginning. The doors animations don't match some times you cross the security room and just walk0 comments 31 views last activity

Just earlier today I was playing a match of springtrap where once it came to the final two they were on and off generators simply because the door placements chanced out and were quite oppressive, however during this period of some gen touching I got the abandon prompt mid chase. It had maybe been 5 minutes without significant generator progress but they were still doing them to some degree. This1 comments 41 views last activity

Leaving aside the ridiculousness of free undetectable teleport as BASEKIT, why is he allowed this with NO blocking option from survivors? EVERY teleporting killer, except Nurse, but hers is … game breaking in a different way, has a way to negate the power, if only temporarily. Hag and Puppy can be directly removed, Dredge locked in, Singularity hit with EMP, unknown dispelled, and Saduko has the13 comments 441 views last activity

If you compare it to ada healing perk self preservation just gives less value overall and its harder to activate, 16 meters is a range close enough to being seen and heard before the K actually gets a down, 32 meters for half a heal is wayy stronger than that. Self preservation is one of that perks that could have value near iron will levels because the one survivor using it is mostly people try1 comments 11 views last activity

On the ptb when he traveled felt pretty balanced,sometimes kinda slow but now on live ive lost cont on how many times he comes out of the door 1- FULLY INVISIBLE, being able to hit and walk and only appearing after a good 2 seconds, 2-Faster, not fast in a haste sense but the amount of time the animation takes to end feels shorter so you pretty much have no reaction time to it.

The Party Hat add-on indicates that the area of effect of Springtrap’s Axe has a duration. What is this duration at base and what is the duration with the Party Hat add-on equipped?1 comments 41 views last activity

Springtrap's add-on is more useful to survivors than himself. Because survivors still have 20% faster vault from the celebrate poster. Should the vault speed from the add-on be reduced to 12% too?13 comments 331 views last activity

Hello! Ever since the update I've noticed that when I'm playing killer every once in awhile, maybe 2-3 times per match, my character will stop moving for a very brief period of time, about a quarter of a second, and then I can move again. I've tested this on two different PC's and 3 different keyboards and it consistently happens It doesn't happen when playing survivor It seems to only eff5 comments 393 views last activity

I would rather get facecamped by every Killer at once with every oneshot ability active at once than play 1 round against this awful Killer. I would even prefer to get hardcore tunneled by a god tier nurse or blight than having to play 1 round against this dumb ass killer.1 comments 41 views last activity

Just a tip for survivors that if you listen very carefully there is a wind whooshing sound, it goes silent when ST is walking through the office so if you notice it suddenly is quieter than usual and you are near a door perhaps pre run until it starts again.

It's been eight months since I made a bug report about Game Afoot. I don't want to make another one because there's like three bug reports about game afoot anyway. I want to post about it here instead to draw more attention (and hopefully fix) this issue.

I play a good mix of solo queue and killer. Today I figured I'd have a game of solo. 4 out of 6 games ended up with 4 bots. 2-3 survivors just heading to the killer to go next. Now I get it, the latest killers have felt a little oppressive and survivors seem to have been forgotten about by BHVR, but what's caused this new "let's all get killed straight away" thing?

I was testing them abit last night and saw something I dont THINK was stated about them. AFK crows dont appear if you are the last survivor. It's completely removed once it turns into a hatch game for the last guy.

I have maybe 7000-ish hours in this game over multiple platforms and now it's gone from 2k hours in matches down to not even 650. Which I don't buy that.

There is zero reason that survivor and gen auras should be the same thing in this day and age. It makes aura reading perks (especially those that involve aura reading for survs on a gen) completely useless. For example, the aura reading on eruption is absolutely pointless. It does nothing, you can't see the survivors aura most of the time because it's the exact same color. That and the massive l3 comments 92 views last activity

I've been struggling for the last 3 days on how to make this killer work for me. My Build I finally settled with is Surge, friends til the end, Brutal Strength, Rapid Brutality after a long 3 days I think this is my best build for him because he relys on information and Haste to work properly for me.

Instead of dealing with the "go next" mentality, the devs have emboldened it. Now I spend my entire match against insufferably toxic bully squads just to kill bots in the end. Why is this a thing?

We all know the update is so buggy and problematic on a number of fronts. However, my week 6 quests (specifically be chased one) is bugged.

A lot of people complain about getting crows too easily, but I'm not seeing it at all. In fact, this morning I had a teammate who managed to hide all game in spite of the mechanic. Yes, she did get some crows here and there, but she easily got rid of them. But overall, she didn't contribute much to the match at all, she never got hooked, and that's why we all died.

It's already very obvious his speed add-ons foxys hook and celebrate poster will get nerf along with some of Springtraps basekit. Springtrap moves to fast holding his Axe making him extremely good at zoning so he needs to be slower while holding. Springtrap also gets his axe to fast able to throw every 6-7 seconds and needs to be increased. Finally his axe grab attack is very generous in rang12 comments 281 views last activity

Is it ok for major game changes to feel unfair? Some people are unhappy with the Go Next and AFK Crow changes, and are claiming "the changes should be removed or lessened, because it's unfair for survivors". Will we have the same attitude in Phase 2, when the game changes are for camping, tunneling, and slugging? Will we advocate that the changes should feel fair for killers, or will we demand17 comments 271 views last activity

I’ve always been a stealth player. The quiet tension of sneaking past the killer, heart pounding as I crouched behind a rock, hoping they wouldn’t turn around. The mind games, the subtle jukes, the deep satisfaction of surviving not because I was fast, but because I was clever . That’s what made Dead by Daylight feel special—it wasn’t just an action game. It was psychological. Tactical. Poetic i15 comments 391 views last activity
