So... Once the Open Handed buff goes live it will be possible to use a Key plus Blood Amber, and Scratched Pearl to see the killer within a 60m range. Combine that with something like Alert, and a survivor can keep tabs on the killer from a pretty significant distance without the risks that come with OoO. Is this too ridiculous?13 comments 521 views last activity

Do you think it's fair? Let's be honest, people do play better and get ranks easier playing SWF. Voice comms boost your chances to survive no matter you're playing competitively or for fun SWF needs some MMR bonus so killers are stronger for groups. Let's say you have 700 mmr and your teammate is 800. That's 750 average, But since you're playing duo matchmaker adds another 100 so your average m28 comments 932 views last activity

Trying to learn Plague has been really stressful with this kind of matchups. It's hard to believe there were no survivors of a lower rank than 1 to fill those slots. My killer queues are instant but it feels like beginner killers are just getting thrown to the wolves so that high rank SWFs can play.10 comments 171 views last activity

Weekly reminder that PS4/Xbox One DBD is a terrible experience and that BHVR promised to fix it. I understand that 2020 was a strange year for everyone, truly it was unprecedented. However, we were supposed to have 60 FPS on Consoles by the end of 2019. It is now 2021 and nothing has been done. Maps like Red Forest still lower FPS to abysmal amounts. Dead Hard freezes the game, so does Sloppy0 comments 31 views last activity

This was played at 8:00 PM PST and I was not in a SWF... I've had really similar matches but like why would it think this was a good match? There are definitely enough players right now to not have this happen lol6 comments 81 views last activity

Since we got a mori nerf are we gonna see a key nerf soon? Have had three games tonight where the game gets to 1 Gen left and 1 kill with most players on hook 2 and the final three key immediately. Super frustrating to have a game going well and being well balanced only to end that way.3 comments 71 views last activity

I'm just giving a few examples because how I feel can be a bit subjective.

Ok so as is current babby sitter is useless pretty much as is now What if babby sitter did what it did currently but if a survivor goes down in 20s after getting unhooked that perk will allow them to pick themselves up with a 10%slower recovery speed (will slow unbreakable) It also increases the odds of you being the obsession to hide if no one has ds If it's too strong (It will deac9 comments 131 views last activity

Seeing so many posts on here from survivor and killer mains about what they hate to see, I'm curious. What would you consider to be an ideal match as survivor, killer, or both?4 comments 41 views last activity

I say this since I do not want something weak and similar like what happened with Twins and Blight, both are the least seen killers at the same level as Plague.50 comments 691 views last activity

Somebody on the forums is living in the past and reviving threads that are a year or more old! This isn’t a complaint, just pointing out something intriguing is all. I keep getting notifications of new posts to discussions that I don’t quite recognize, and I’m thinking “what did I comment on THAT topic? ....a year ago?! wowza .... and I actually said THAT?! Ahh geeeeee!”4 comments 91 views last activity

When a generator is being repaired while under 50%, a survivor will convert twice the amount of time they were on the generator into exhaustion. Exhaustion, in general, is paused when on a generator regardless if a survivor is repairing one with under 50% progress. This was apparently already done in its last buff which I didn't even know about. Mindbreaker buff: It keeps the part where5 comments 81 views last activity

title is a reference to "Nobody hates Star Wars more than Star Wars fans" I just see a lot of parallels between how the general Star Wars fans react to new content (before The Mandalorian, at least) and how the DBD community reacts to any change the developers do or their daily experience with playing the game. Not saying that everyone hates the new changes/buffs/nerfs but it's easier to remembe6 comments 141 views last activity

I have been playing for about a year and i noticed that there are no punishments for holding the game hostage by camping. I have over 80 videos of killers that stand in front of you and make it impossible to save anyone from the hook. Its annoying that i pay alot of money for the auric cells and characters just to sit there and get aggrevated to the point of not wanting to play. Isnt this10 comments 772 views last activity

Browsing these forums might have just given me the ultimate proof that if Humanity can divide itself, it will. Even for something meaningless like a game. Especially for something meaningless like a game. Doesn't matter how literally nonexistant the stakes are.

When you finish a match just to find out that the other players were screwed over by matchmaking? E.g. if you're a red rank survivor and you find out that the killer was a yellow rank playing against 3-4 red ranks, or if you're a red rank killer just to find out that you were playing against 4 low rank survivors (or alternatively, you were playing against 1-2 red rank survivors with low rank surv9 comments 101 views last activity

And I’m trying to type this during my queue times and that’s why it’s taking a long time. So I play on the Switch with cross play off, just for context. Survivor times are hell right now so thought I’d play some killer. Here are my thoughts on playing killer. Again for context, my current survivor rank is 2 and my current killer rank is 15. I play mainly Trapper. But as you can see, I’m a prett21 comments 341 views last activity

fellow killer we need to realise that this perk exists because of us in the first place. Every change i have thought of and suggestions i read would lead to this perk being useless and therefore would make it a bad perk. And our kill rate (which is already to high) would just increase to much.9 comments 151 views last activity

Title. Looking at the pool of perks and the killer abilities, there is some attempt from the devs to get people to use different playstyles, but it all falls flat on its face because there is just something missing to get people to actually do this. Instead the gameplay is the always same, to the point that you can accurately predict what perks either side will run and how they will behave just22 comments 211 views last activity

Just some Ideas I've had while I was coming up with a Miner killer concept, but I figured that since the concept wasn't really going anywhere, the perks are at least decent and could be used by the devs for an upcoming killer. Plus, with everyone complaining about camping, tunneling, and slugging recently, I thought some people might get a chuckle out of them. Camp Light: Knowledge of your0 comments 41 views last activity

Let’s be honest, they make playing killer a horrible experience. They hide throughout the entire game and are the ones to Tbag at the exit gates. Like, bro you just hid the whole game. As when playing survivor, they are the worst as well. They will save in front of the killer without borrowed time and don’t even bother taking a hit. This encourages killers to tunnel.

Hey folks! I made my first post about how I like to let survivors go a while back. Just wanted to come back to say that survivors treat me like trash no matter how fair I play. Thus I have decided to be toxic back. When survivors t bag. Or switch items last second so I can’t pick perks to counter.

As a ex freddy main I can confirm that freddy is super boring to play as. All you do is spam snares at loops and teleport to gens with bbq and kick them with pop. Very repetitive. Freddy is like easy mode he has everything a m1 killer needs, stealth because of the lullaby, high mobility, and high chase pressure. I honestly hate going against freddy because they all play the same. Pop, bbq , jump28 comments 741 views last activity

I normally do not run this perk when playing killer, but I've recently have been trying out perks I normally do not run and as of late have been trying out BBQ (I normally run Whispers) and I find that its value is extremely inconsistent when I play in red ranks. Many times I see no auras and I can it can basically be useless in terms of finding people. I don't care about bloodpoints so there's a17 comments 192 views last activity

(Yes I've heard people say that before unironically) For killer players, swf is something you're going to have to deal with for awhile. Maybe in the future there'll be a game mode with single queue only, but for the meantime we have to wait. It's an asymmetrical game, so it's not like they can do balanced matchmaking. And killers already have super long queue times so just getting rid of swf w22 comments 881 views last activity

ALMOST EVERY TIME THIS HAPPENS WHEN I USE THIS PERK If the Killer is far away, the Survivors I unhook still run away in panic, wasting both their and mine time. They don't know what is We'll Make It, even some Red Ranks. IMO, We'll Make it should apply its own Status Effect so people are more likely to know they are gonna be healed very fast, but I am not sure it will solve the problem of le16 comments 271 views last activity

So I took a short break from DBD and have been enjoying other games but I've recently came back. I get on to play a few rounds of killer and the salt I have in my messages is unreal. I've played a long time so salty messages aren't a new thing, but they've become excessive. I'm talking after every single match. No, I don't camp or tunnel. That playstyle makes no sense to me.

Killers: Camping, tunnelling and slugging. Running OP iridescent like Redheads pinky finger "Clown" or Iridescent hatchets "Huntress". Throwing hate speeches after a game.

No Mither. Unlimited chances to revive from the dying state, downside is it only takes one hit to put you there. Another downside is that your grunts of pain easily alerts killers to your presence. Another downside is if the killer see you wounded without cause he is going to know you are using the perk and will hook you immediately, therefore never allowing you to be able to use it. Maybe some o11 comments 141 views last activity

The game haven't sees a single, at least the smallest bug fix patch for the 3 whole weeks. Even an extremely small hot fix patch that could contain reduced Elodie audio and fixed trap-Pallet in Father Campbell Chapel would be highly appreciated.

If a survivor uses OoO, tbags, or you see 4 flashlights, 4 toolboxes in the lobby, feel free to put that iri head, that mori, maybe a face camp or two for t baggers. Dont feel intimidated to use them by entitled survivor mains. They wonder why the queue times are long, and they are getting longer.39 comments 511 views last activity

I believe the BHVR team allocated to DBD has a good amount of members in it this shouldn't be an issue? The uncleansable tractor totem has been here for like a month now. The oni power bug, while patch notes say it's been fixed, still persists to this day. Crotus Penn Asylum's near-shack pallet break that gets you stuck in the ground as killer.

His potd should come out a little faster and he shouldn't be slower then survivors for a second when his sword is in the ground.33 comments 331 views last activity
