The Open Handed buff was confirmed in the Dev Update talk, but not on the PTB. Since it's mostly a numbers buff, I bet they could just bring it straight to Live. It's not unheard of either since it happened with the Discordance change last mid-chapter.6 comments 111 views last activity

Was playing trapper like i normally do with corrupt. Survivors bring haddonfield offering so i'm already worried. Game starts i grab all the traps and set up the area around the 3 gens. Got a lucky spawn with the gen on the one house the door out to the balcony was the only way on to it so i trapped that door and just guarded 2 gens that spawned next to the house trapping up loops like normal.

So I've had a lot of games as killer lately where survivors get mad at me for camping when they left me little other choice. Let me paint a picture because this happens CONSTANTLY. I down a survivor and hook them, before I'm more than 20m away they get unhooked and I down the rescuer and hook them, then survivor all come forward and wait instead of working on gens. Here's the thing folks, if you9 comments 251 views last activity

Just a fun little topic I would love to hear about your most wanted guest killers. Personally I would love to see Springtrap from FNaF, Pinhead from Hellraiser, Nemesis from Resident Evil( with Jill as survivor of course) maybe even the girls from the Ring or The Grudge( just imagine working on a gen and seeing the Grudge girl upside down crab running towards you. Horrifying) I’m probably missing16 comments 101 views last activity

I think that embracing a sort of less serious side of the game would be a good idea. Stuff like ghostface, where he's not a serious killer from the source media. The "scare factor" is pretty much already gone from the game at this point, people have gotten used to it. A couple of examples of what I mean: The Mask Goosebumps? Darth Vader, if they can get the license, would be a really good addi6 comments 132 views last activity

I don't want people to just come in and rant about how terrible solo queue is, just be honest. What is your average experience with solo queue? Is it as bad as people make it out to be, or is it actually not bad? In my experience, it isn't bad. I mostly have fun games even with teammates who aren't the best. I occasionally have frustrating games with my team, but it is still fine.50 comments 601 views last activity

We have currently 22 killers in the game. While i have all killer i dont play some killers often. Some killer i play weekly, other only monthly and some i didnt play for a year. Weekly i play around 5 killer, monthly 10 and the last 7 almost never. How many do you play? Is it even possible to play every killer and stay good with all of them?

The glorified participation trophy, hatch, is still in the game. It has the same problem as DS. The survivor gets a 2nd chance from just existing. Do no gens, tbag all game, your chases last single digits of time: none of it matters. You happened to be last, so you get out. And in the race to the hatch, the killer is not favored. The survivor can press a button in its general vicinity and get vac28 comments 481 views last activity

I love everything about this game. Despite all its bugs and crazy strong perks on each side i still enjoy playing it. I feel like the sooner people enjoy the game for what it is Rather than all its flaws, the sooner people will enjoy it more and the less toxic people will be. I have had games where i played as fair as possible. IE no tunnels chasing a different survivor each time i get a hook. An0 comments 71 views last activity

Step 1) Check forums randomly, learn OoO and DS are getting nerfed. Step 2) Find out they're coming later weeks from now. Step 3) Say "oh well" and reinstall after half a year after uninstall. Step 4) Play, do well have lots of fun. Step 5) After playing for a few days run into a sweat SWF. Step 6) Uninstall.0 comments 31 views last activity

i dont understand all the killer mains whining and crying about some survivor perks. the best excuse is "DS is carrying" "bt is carrying" etc you guys act like Tinkerer, ruin, undying isnt carrying? Pgtw isnt carrying or any other perk.. these are not carrying matches? what is wrong with killer mains always attacking survivors and there perks.

I was legit dominating a killer game and all of a sudden it booted me back to the title screen and said my session had expired. Said i left the game suspended for too long but i was playing so that didnt make sense. And to top it off I GOT HIT WITH A DC penalty. GOOD JOB DEVS tell me im inactive when i am PLAYING then penalize me for it. How is this possible. Please get to the bottom of this.11 comments 311 views last activity

Last couple of nights I've played Killer they have been getting stuck on nothing. I'll be walking fine then all of a sudden it feels like I'm going through mud and then it goes back to normal speed. This would go on through the whole match. This happened to me a few months ago for a couple of nights, as well, but then went back to normal.

I hope Clown's changes have proven to be enticing for most players in the community. He was my first main when I got the game and never stopped playing him since, and it makes me more excited to play him further with his new adjustments. Do you think the changes have altered your opinions on him, or will the Freddy/Spirit/Huntress streak never end?35 comments 441 views last activity

Just wanted to say it. Right about 11 percent. So if you don't like indoor maps there's a 11 percent chance you're going to Lerys, Game, Hawkins, or Midwich. But don't worry 89 percent chance you're not getting one.1 comments 31 views last activity

The real joy is being bamboozled by stuff you never see like "Babysitter" or "Solidarity" or "Spies from the Shadows" or.... It's always fun (for me, at least) to have little AHA! moments with the lesser known perks - I really wish they'd shake the game up a bit and redesign a majority of the perks.0 comments 61 views last activity

I apparently am doing something wrong with the Tome 1 challenge Mechanical Obsession. I have tried numerous times and can not seem to get it. It has gotten to the point that I am using Surveillance, Pop Goes The Weasel and Discordance and I know I have damaged the same generator twice after the survivors have gone back to repairing it to no avail. Anyone have any idea what I am missing? I would4 comments 61 views last activity

I'm stll new to the game, but I am getting a better handle on how to play as a Survivor main. but I do have to say the rank system is completely crap. If I get downed immediately & my team doesn't try to help me I get a point taken away causing me to go toward my rank being lowered. If I don't do enough my Rank doesn't move at all, even if I do 3 out of 4 things for example, I saved someone o6 comments 101 views last activity

There are only three real reasons I can think of for DBD to not have voice acting and all of them are weak. 1- They don't want the characters to have to be recorded in multiple languages because its expensive and time consuming. ANSWER- The characters speak their native language based on where they live in their lore regardless of what language version you are playing. 2- The existing12 comments 201 views last activity

Hello all! I have recently run into a hard spot when accessibility and Dead by Daylight aren't necessarily a thing... I'm hard of hearing and normally with the volume up I do decently well but after the last update I have struggled hard listening for terror radius and skill checks, considerably more so than when I first started the game.

OK. True story. Just been playing a game on Steam. Long story short. One particular player was being obnoxious, but on opening the exit gate, I had them cold and downed them, was carrying them to the hook and as I start the Hook animation... the animation freezes... I start to sway... and then back to the main menu... "to play this game a network connection is required"... No other issues wi8 comments 211 views last activity

So while the devs have been making perks better. Most are still worthless or have little to no value or can't be used by itself effectively. So here's all those survivor perks 1. Self-care little value on it's own need to be paired with Botany or Desperate or A Medkit. 2. Calm Spirit it's counters are very few unless there's Doctor, Clown, Infectious. SFTS, or Deathbound it's not good and to ni28 comments 401 views last activity

I've had a random long thought process of this status effect. Why is it so easy to get rid of? Why can't we change it so that its actually a threat? As of right now, Deep Wounds is a very very weak status effect (at least in my opinion) Even with the recent change of 20 seconds. it just feels like a minor inconvenience, I play both sides and every time i use it, it either A.

I only ask seeing as Decisive Strike is receiving a pretty hefty nerf. While countering two of the most abusive strats/tactics/mechanics (whatever you want to call it) in the game. I find it very interesting that the developers took issue with Pyramid Head's cages, and nerfing those to the point the killer cannot remain in vicinity of the cage, or else the cage gets sent to a different locati149 comments 2,411 views last activity

I play on the PS4 and I don’t suffer lag most of the time. However, it seems anytime I get chased by the killer my lag turns terrible. Just now I had a match where I was being chased by a Leatherface, crossed under a pallet and before I could flip it suddenly lag. Which gave the killer time to do his stupid chainsaw move. When I do get lag it’s always during killer chases, vaulting, etc. it’s not2 comments 21 views last activity

Seriously i'm getting sick and tired of this why change perks that don't need changes and instead CHANGE NOED seriously NOED had a timer before it became a hex why didn't they keep it like that just have a timer for NOED because it's the dumbest perk "oh but it's perfect for new comers to the game" no it's not when I played dbd I never used NOED because the person will just get attached to it and45 comments 741 views last activity

Self caring by any means causes the survivor to scream Healing another survivor makes you the obsession.. this would be niche but add synergy if you combo it with something like nemesis Having it work against self healing would guarantee you’d get at least some value out of Deathbound in your games if the survivor isn’t using calm spirit or inner strength.8 comments 61 views last activity

I have a group of friends where we often vpn to other regions so we could get a 5 stack into public serves to farm bps. However when we don't have a full 5 stack and were forced to play with others, we've experienced some interesting patterns. Asian killers are OBSESSED with noed. Out of 5 killers 4 of them would bring noed. It made us picking up the habit of always cleansing all totems before6 comments 271 views last activity

Hey, DBD players. I decided to make a list of 5 biggest mistakes you make as a killer. The whole video with explanation is right there: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fZ8jUYo2g6A But if you don't want to watch, then these are the mistakes: 1. Continuously chasing good survivors on dangerous loops 2. Not relying on perks and your power 3. Not breaking pallets 4. Not thinking 1 step ahea20 comments 441 views last activity

I'm a rank 1 killer and survivor but I main ghostface as killer. Lately I've been getting a lot of after the match chat saying that ghostface isn't fair because they "can't look at me" also I can sneak up even if they have spine chill by simply sidestepping and picking them off the gen. Should I start playing a different killer to see if he is that much better? I only play him because the scream38 comments 1,602 views last activity

In the most recent QnA stream Mclean mentioned that they have some teasers about upcoming key changes. Around 29 minutes into the stream. Due to time constraints, these teasers weren't shown.

So, killers don’t get mad, what if their was a solution to facecamping. If a killer is 8-10 meters away from you, your health bar should not go down (or just progresses down very slowly). Sort of like the mending effect, how if a killer is chasing or around you it doesn’t go down. I feel like this is a pretty neutral solution to it and it evens out its sides!

Clown is one of the worst Killers because of his lack of map mobility and relatively one-note weak power. Not to mention his sound effect that tells Survivors when he's vaulting to remove a lot of mindgames. The rework ignored this problems and gave him another option for his power. It feels like if Freddy had gotten a rework to add his dream pallets to his kit instead of coming with two option10 comments 202 views last activity

I've been playing DbD for a month now, and found my way to rank 4 (the first red rank) on both sides. But it seems to me almost everyone is miserable playing this game, so I'm very torn about investing more time on it. Coordinated SWF's make the game unfun for killers, which then have to be too strong for uncoordinated solo-q survivors, which in turn "sabotage" the game for SWF's, thus creating53 comments 561 views last activity
