Survivors and Killers both get in a routine of running the same exact build... even if its not actually as optimal as it could be. They usually just run the same thing over and over. So here's my advice: try occasionally experimenting with swapping out perks in your build for alternatives to see how much you miss them and how good the new builds end up being. On my Legion build, I became real9 comments 131 views last activity

I have seen soooo many posts about BBQ being too strong. It isnt. But thats not the point of this post. The point is this: If you actually nerf BBQ to a point it isnt played that much, survivors will go crazy. Why? because it will be replaced with a good perk, a better one. There are plenty of perks that are better then BBQ + It actually encourages a non camping playstyle. So what hap43 comments 1,191 views last activity

So... If MMR is going to be different for each of your killers, (which is absolutely ridiculous) then survivors need to be different MMR as well. Just because I’m a rank 4 with Feng Min, doesn’t mean I know how to play with a Dweet. WHEN WILL THE DEVS REALIZE THIS?!?! But honestly, different killer MMR is a dumb idea. A rank 1 killer knows the mechanics of the game well enough that they don’t23 comments 541 views last activity

Killers see a new widget which displays how many hooks they've earned during the match out of the possible total hooks. This is only visible to the Killer. Survivors see a new set of markers above each of the Survivor player's names. This lets the Survivor players know how many times each Survivor has been hooked. This is only visible to the Survivors. So the most recent PTB now lets Kil3 comments 171 views last activity

What has been going on lately with DBD??. The last couple days has been nothing but constantly getting kicked and the atrocious lag. It's not just me either. It's getting frustrating because getting kicked causes the loss of items you don't even get to use. Is the server buggy atm??5 comments 71 views last activity

Is anyone else experiencing an increase in killers that are hacking? I have had 2 games in my last 15 with killers way faster than their base speed, one where the wraith had everyone downed and hooked in 2 minutes. Literally moved so fast you couldn’t hardly move before he downed you. I have had this game basically since it first came out and have only recently been running into hackers.0 comments 21 views last activity

I’m probably kicking the hornet’s nest with this one. Please remain civil in this discussion. I predict that once the mid chapter goes live. That a ton of LOW LEVEL or noob survivors (mostly) are going to give their grievances of the potential effectiveness of the undying + devour hope combo. I COULD BE WRONG & I HOPE I AM. I wouldn’t be surprised to see grievances. with that out of26 comments 381 views last activity

I had an idea a few weeks ago for an item that I thought could add a whole new dimension to DBD gameplay. Since I found it was a difficult to communicate the concept to other players without raising hundreds of different questions and scenarios, I put together a googledoc with an overview of the idea, some base items, add-ons, and killer interactions. I think a new mechanic like this would take0 comments 41 views last activity

....is that BIG booty! I just switched to Jane after playing Meg up to lvl 41. Meg was never given the hatch or a free escape. I have Jane at 20 after playing today and she's been given hatch twice and carried to the exit gate once. Another Killer tried to let me crawl out....but I'd been slugged too long and died in the gate. Killers love Jane regardless of what they say!2 comments 71 views last activity

Let me explain. every time i use it i either miss the damn skillcheck, or it runs out just as the Killer Picks me up. What it should do is, it lasts forever AND, it Automatically Works when he picks you up. You cant save it anymore so thats a atvantage for the Killer right ? Oh and btw thats a Joke. I want it to be changed like Scott Jund said in one of his Videos. :)11 comments 241 views last activity

Sole Survivor and Mettle of Man have no interaction with the Obsession Mechanic, but they create an Obsession anyway. Why not have the Devs just tack on the Obsession Mechanic to a bunch of random perks for no apparent reason because having an Obsession in the game decreases tunneling? There are six Survivor Obsession Perks and three of them are from the same Survivor's teachables and were re4 comments 61 views last activity

Ok, I'm an Oni main. I've got about 1500 hours on just Oni, and I honestly think scalped topknot makes games literally unwinnable. I've gone against literal optimal "depip squads" and tournament SWF teams that still couldn't beat me when I'm playing with STK. It takes any counter play Oni has, like certain structures being too tight or small to effectively use his power, and completely throws it59 comments 1,581 views last activity

This is my first week back on DBD and I must say, I completely regret reinstalling. I’m already at red ranks and I don’t understand how most of you are in these ranks too? From what I’ve seen, most of you don’t do anything. Most of you don’t do gens. Most of you don’t cleanse totems. Most of you don’t go for saves, but when you do, the killer is right behind you and you don’t have Borrowed Time.9 comments 151 views last activity

Ive been playing some deathslinger on and off, and ive experienced my shots not connecting and visually going through body's without a succesful outcome. Any1 else experiencing this? Also, Otzdarva played deathslinger on his stream tonight and ill link you this clip. His shot really going through. Thats when i certainly knew something is off with his shots. https://clips.8 comments 171 views last activity

I've noticed people mention them. Now I haven't played the PTB but I've been brought up to speed on them. What...what's the deal there? Are they intentionally "silly?" Are they bugs? Are they the result of poor planning? I don't really understand the purpose of including them. Do the devs expect us to use these in a legitimate or helpful way or...? I just don't get it.5 comments 71 views last activity

For questline dlcs? As in: You could buy a questline that would lead to themed cosmetics for several survivors at once (similar to the old headcase etc dlcs, just with quests)?6 comments 111 views last activity

What if map offerings prevented you from being sent to that specific map, instead of sending you there? I feel like that would solve some issues that Killers have with survivors being able to send them to whatever map they please, particularly if they don't have a map-cancelling offering.6 comments 71 views last activity

OI went on there to submit evidence of a hacker and there is no option to submit a ticket? When were you people going to tell us about the new support page? Also This was a result of me playing with crossplay and i rememebr a mod on here asking another user why they dont want crossplay. Hackers exist.

Just a daily reminder that keys are absolutely busted af and miserable to play with. Thanks in advance for taking another 8+ months to fix them. Oh yeah and thanks for nerfing the only thing that kept keys in check before actually fixing keys, now we get to deal with them every other game, sometimes 2-3 in a single game! Yay for priorities!!1 comments 21 views last activity

Two perks that need to be modified, Autodidact: have matches that I don't receive any skill tests at all and it is only me taking it, that I am machine-gunned with these damn tests, it is necessary to increase the rate that you receive the tests with this perk to make it valid , the other is Barbecue and chilli, he needs to have 3 tokens three survivors on the hook after that the aura no longe1 comments 41 views last activity

This has already been suggested before, but I really feel that this change can help the game for the better. DBD releases four chapters every year. This is way too much, especially in the future when there is a hoard of survivors and killers to choose from, and perks will only become more complicated unless a new game mechanic is introduced. I think that DBD should release one health chapte19 comments 421 views last activity

Pls before saying something make sure you are really experienced with hag. Unfortunately ideas do not always reflect reality, especially that of really strong players So, what's the deal? The deal is that I have to face really really strong players. I always play with cross play deactivated, always, because i want to find the strongest players and beat them.

I thought about reporting this as a bug but since people have been doing it for over a year now, I didn't see the point. I just played a game on Cold Wind against Ghostface and I stared at him directly (he didn't even bother hiding) and it didn't push him out of his power. He exposed me both times and I died both times. The first one was a distance of perhaps 12 meters or so. The second, the11 comments 122 views last activity

My build is this: BBQ, STBFL and Corrupt Intervention. I have no idea what the fourth perk should be, any suggestions? I'm not the kind of killer that likes running multiple gen defence perks, so something else other than PGTW, please.12 comments 71 views last activity

Probably going to get a lot of hate for this, but a good Blight is stupidly strong with little to no counterplay. His cooldown after a dash isn't long enough to make any real distance, and his turning and attack hitbox are so massive that you really can't dodge his lethal rush. On one hand, you need to practice a bit to be good at him i'm sure, but at higher levels it doesn't really seem like you71 comments 1,121 views last activity

You see, I wasn't here like 3 years ago when I came to the game and I wanted to ask you why Bubba doesn't have his own map? Why was the LEATHERFACE chapter not called, for example, The Texas Massacre Chapter? Well when you see Bubba's new skin in his trailer, you can see the kitchen of the house and that led me to my question, most likely due to his license but I want to know the rest.29 comments 963 views last activity

I just played a game where this wraith had just sat, afk, for the whole game. Of course me and my friend depiped as in higher ranks you need the equivalent of 3 silvers and a gold to not derank but due to no chase points or altruism points this became impossible, but that is beside the point. Is there any reason for there to be no punishment for afk behavior in games?18 comments 691 views last activity

I was playing on the deathslinger, so at the end of the match I'm chasing a survivor they go just beyond the escape door but I shoot and catch one of them on the chain, I start to reel her in and she goes way off to the side of the door by where the barrels are and I hit her but she gets stuck between the wall and the barrels, Now she's laying on the floor slugged bleeding out, and she can't move0 comments 11 views last activity

As a Survivor you have three options when you load into a match, Run Decisive Strike and risk having a dead perk slot because it doesn't come into play every game even when you try to force it. Run another Obsession perk to make sure the Killer thinks someone has Decisive. There are very few options and a lot of them also run into the inconsistency problem. Run a build that you enjoy with5 comments 161 views last activity

Howdy-hi-dee-ho! Killer main here, looking for a change of pace! I've made up my mind to give nurse a proper try, as she has cool cosmetics, and is one of the most unique killers in the game! She's already level 40+ (as I leveled her for her teachables) and I have a few perks for her. I know shadowborn is one of her best perks, and im trying to find it in her bloodweb.

Let’s be real. This game is starting to get LOADED with a LOT of modifiers, and i can appreciate that it can sometimes get confusing for the newer players. But even as a long time player, it’s still a healthy habit to do 1 of 2 things every now and then.

I think I’m better understanding DMS, and the limitations it has when used strictly on its own. Many killers focus on that it doesn’t help regress gens, and it prevents any ongoing active regression (Ruin for example). But what (seemingly) many killers don’t acknowledge is that it prevents other survivors from continuing repairs on a blocked gen while you are engaged in a chase with another.32 comments 591 views last activity

Hey there! I was playing against The Twins on Badham Preschool, myself and 2 other survivors were doing a generator in the basement, when we heard the heartbeat.

Please list down your most hate Perks combos from Killer. Not asking Killer comes with specific perk like Spirit & Stridor. Just Perks combos. It doesnt have to be 4 perks combo, it can be a single perk like Noed, or 2 perks combo like Ruin + Undying ect.20 comments 191 views last activity

When you are in the killers terror radius, click the ability button. You will be granted a 1% haste effect for 4/8/12 seconds.

If window spawns in the middle, between two buses, this loop is just unmindgamable semi-infinite. Why didn't they change it? There is no even breakable walls here Also seems like next reworked maps are not solving strong loops problem at all.

Every 4 man crossplay match I've gotten into has either been way too easy or toxic as Chernobyl. I'm not saying anyone who's not pc is toxic but I'm just saying man, either having a 3 minute no challenge match or a 15 minute key match is just boring, like why even stay in the match when I could just leave and play something else.
