  • It's one thing for a player to engage in end-game camping, where the killer will prevent the rescue of a hooked survivor after the end-game has been triggered and the trial is essentially over. While I don't like it, it seems logical that the killer would want to try to get at least one sacrifice. However, this is not the same thing as bullying camping. Bullying camping is where a killer player

  • We used to have weekly dev streams, that were a highlight and always fun to watch. Now we get one every couple of months. We used to play with/against the devs in official dev streams. Where we could ask questions while being live. We used to have a roadmap. Where we could see whats planned for the next months and what to expect in the future. What happend? Why have you stopped talking to the

  • So, as one can probably tell from my PFP and maybe the thread I once made about CHANGING TO THIS AWESOME NEW MEME... I MEAN MAIN, I have been playing ONLY Trickster since he came out. That said, I have been seeing way more DCs as well. I played plenty of Killer prior, mostly Legion (old main), Bubba, Blight, and Plague. All of them COMBINED have not seen the amount of DCs that Trickster has for

  • The lobby is due for a change or two. And I'm not talking about the background. For killers, Instead of having them off to the side, far from the fire, it would be neat to have them be behind the survivors, looking through some trees or bushes or something from the shadows. But still from a distance. But also, names need to be gone. From both the lobbies and the main game. Hidden until the after

  • The title is more a reminding question. This ability especially was nerfed because it would feel too "oppressive" (not my words, its actually a dev quote). I have never buy this argument, if I am honest, because if we really buy this argument we would also need to delete/change every one-shot ability of killers, the trap abilitiy of the hag, tricksters knife throwing abilitiy, body blocking by

  • I just noticed that I have yet to actually do any of these... I've seen people interact with them in my matches. But I've only seen survivors do it. Can I do these challenges as killer? It would make them a lot easier.

  • I have always been a survivor main and never really played killer. But, now I'm starting killer out and I need to know which perks to get and in what order. Can you please put some killers with some nice perks and the order I should grind them in. I have already got all of Freddy's perks. All of Bubba's and Ruin, and Bamboozle.

  • So why is strengthening a new character not an option? Because as long as there is one tap for a shot (like deathslinger OR Huntress), this killer will be one step lower.

  • ...What reason does one have to leave a side of the map while playing killer, given that there's most likely a three gen on it? Heck, I've seen four gens on one side of the map when playing these two maps, and seeing that the gens are away from the middle, which is the area with the most obstacles and line of sight breakers in both maps, it's impressively easy to patrol as long as the killer has

  • Imo survivors should share aura reading perks, see eachothers perks and addons etc, have the glass bead basekit, have an in game voice/text chat and a map wide bond. Before you say its OP it is still less than what a SWF is capable of. After this just give survivors another gen or some ######### I havent figured out that part. You could just go killer by killer and buffing them all to blight leve

  • Literally just went against a SUPER-hateful Legion who, upon me asking 'what did I ever do to you?', said 'you guys are OBVIOUSLY SWF. Your friends lists are private and you joined at the same time!'. He said we were cheaters, how we shouldn't be playing together, how we weren't allowed to communicate (through outside resources, like discord? makes no sense. But, I was playing with my brother?

  • I'm generally curious as to how many people on these forums still play DBD, and who here doesn't play anymore. I recently made the decision that I didn't want to play DBD anymore because it doesn't seem like the game is gonna get better thanks to the bad balancing decisions, and how bad things have been since the Halloween Event. So if you still play DBD would like to know why, and if you don't t

She went afk, I had her on my back she was my back buddy. I found the hatch before it spawned in with blight rush bug. I sat on it with hex ruin, surveillance, undying, and tinkerer.

  • Personally i think it'd be a lot more fun if there was just one add-on for each killer that did nothing beneficial, not the "meme add-ons" like speed-limiter that are just so bad they're only used ironically. More like an add-on for billy that would just make his roar audible for any survivor no matter where they're at. Or a huntress lullaby where her voice cracks every once in a while and she ge

  • It was nice that this perk got a buff, but it’s still not enough to give players a compelling reason to equip this perk. So my idea is: get rid of the endgame condition. Have it active all game. Get rid of the aura reading. Get rid of the bonus BP, and 50% healing speed bonus. Simply make it so that it’s a constant match long buff of 50% increased speed to unhooking.

  • Nemesis is a unique perk. It doesn't create an obsession at the start, but it WILL create one whenever the perk is procced. Now there's DS, pretty much the only perk you yourself can bring to discourage the killer than tunnelling you, and it's an obsession perk. With the DS nerf, DS is a lot less common which means it's actually possible to have lobbies where the perk isn't used. But here's o

  • Simple as the title. If they get ruthless they keep the 1st slot, if they get merciless then they get both. I get that the ranking system sucks but it'd be better than always losing the add-ons while survivors get the chance to keep them.

  • When I'm on someone getting off hook, even if I am pretty sure they don't have Decisive or Borrowed Time, I will let them go in favor of uninjured, unhooked survivor. And in the endgame I will purposely leave hooked survivors because I will feel like a dick for camping them. Am I being too nice? Am I handicapping myself?

  • So people, especially killers wish to be able to play with a Friend. My idea for a new killer would be to create a 2 man killer which requires coordination. Lets just take 2 standard killers like the trapper without traps, make them move as fast as survivors but slower at vaults. Your 4 perk slots would be reduced to two each. So the difficulty is communication with your second killer to get the

  • when I actually get to use main event I can down 3-4 survivors in the same area. But that being said why can't I use it when I want? Imagine oni but you only have 15 seconds to activate his power. and then I looked at the buff notes and they said they aren't going to let main event be savable. So why the hell not? You can 99 his power anyways, just let us save it instead

  • Im not just talking about survivors and it being a crutch. I have seen so many killers who brought NOED and would have done better if they just had like a regression perk or info perk instead. NOED is harmful in a lot of situation and frustrating to go against. I really want either a major rework or just it to be removed entirely.

  • I think we all know how everyone feels about killers like Nurse, Spirit, and Freddy. These killers are the epitome of unbalanced as Nurse breaks the game, Spirit has no counter and takes like 2 brain cells to master, and Freddy is like Spirit to a lesser extent, except at least he can be looped. Let’s just sit back and think to ourselves, which killer defines what every other killer should striv
