(TL:DR, previous events had themed objects, and a bloodbunt. The advent calender, despite being downgraded, is still a highly disappointing event) Let's preface this post by saying winter events in dbd have never been a huge deal. They were never the same scope as 2018 hallowed blight. But anyway, onto the post proper. So, way back in the not so good, good 'ol days of 2017, the first winter9 comments 181 views last activity

I had three gens left and everyone in the same area of the stairs in Hawkens. The difficult gen was out of the way and every survivor was being way too altruistic. Then this happened, I hooked a nea, she got unhooked, I downed and hooked three survivors, then caught and downed her, then was promptly DS'd and lost every drop of pressure I had on the map. I then promptly lost with one kill. How is71 comments 2,312 views last activity

You can all complain about slugging all you want, but the truth of the matter is the way this game is designed means at red ranks (even purple ranks) a killer has 3 choices when it comes to approaching load out and match strategy. 1) Slow repairs down as much as possible in a literal, direct way. 2) Find as many ways as possible to keep survivors that are out of a chase either indisposed or a89 comments 2,661 views last activity

so there is the new "playstyle" with the twins. Hook a survivor, move for 5 meters, release victor, run with victor next to the hook, proxy camp till you get informations. can you remember when pyramid head came out, everyone just camped the cage? now the same is happening with the twins. but hey guys. dont complain when the nerf is comming because you, and your scummy gameplay is the reason.10 comments 361 views last activity

Hello survivors hope you all have a wonderful Monday but if it has you down let Head Bobbing Piggy know what you need. Need that flashlight stun go for it! Need that key hatch escape let's get the gens done! Need to give my snoot boops with pallets lead the way! Let me turn that frown upside down <3 Normal snoot boops appreciated and dance with me at exit gate <35 comments 51 views last activity

Hit Validation, mmr and deadzones… years ago this game was so much fun. I have no problem with balanced maps but now its a shitshow because of the focus on monetization. q&a is like a hit in the face… will/can bhvr change their behaviour?0 comments 31 views last activity

Well Feng Min was released in may 2017, why is clown with her in a random photo? Could this mean that the clown rework will release at the same time as the spark of madness chapter (may 2021) we will have to see... In the meantime I'd like to hear your thoughts3 comments 91 views last activity

Personally - I know I'll get hooked for this - would like to see more in-door maps and unique maps in general as they allow for more creative gameplay as opposed to -let's say- Shelter Woods. Something like a mall. Maybe an abandoned one like this: or an active mall like this: Or an amusement park:21 comments 241 views last activity

I think I have done it and found the best perks for me about that is well versatile. Dead Hard- To help in chases Pharmacy- To help me heal myself and others Visionary- To help find gens to do Urban Evasion- To help hide and stay hidden is there anything I should change or is this good?11 comments 101 views last activity

Remember when they just used to give us frosty eyes at the beginning of an event because every killer had them? I guess they want to pretend they're special event loot now. Either that or they needed to pad this poor excuse for a downgraded event. The free shards are nice, but the bloodpoints are just absolutely pathetic.16 comments 911 views last activity

As stated in a previous post DCing is not intended and is meant to be for emergencies/game crashes and the like, but the balance is that the survivors and killer get a minor bump in BP and a little bit towards pipping. HOWEVER!! A suicide on hook does not provide anything it gives the killer a bit more bp but not as much as an additional hook meanwhile survivors get nothing but a loss of a teamm72 comments 542 views last activity

Kinda feel like gens pop way too fast at the start of the match and I been playing survivor only for 3 months. So was wondering if the community has an idea to make it slightly difficult for survivors to pop gens quickly at the start of the game or make the game last longer at the start. And no I do not mean perk wise I mean base killer kit since would be kinda boring to either have 1 killer sl11 comments 231 views last activity

"And here's Victor's pounce ability in action." "Okay, this is pretty cool, but there's a few issues with it." "Such as?" "Well, it's slow, takes forever to charge, has awful hitboxes, for some reason you removed his ability to look up so he can pounce over most objects and actually use the pouncing part of his pounce attack to his advantage, the range is really limited even compared to Slinge15 comments 2,511 views last activity

So, after trying the new map "reworks" for a while I think we can get to the following conclusions: *They don't want stealth to be viable. Just spawn, get spotted instantly, get chased. *They don't like evenly spread structures and pallets. Make one zone strong, the rest of the map empty. *They really like every map to feel the same, ######### uniqueness. *They really love adding pointl3 comments 91 views last activity

Let me start with prefacing I had enjoyed the twins in the PTB, the idea was cool and refreshing. That said, after versing them quite often since release, I am really starting to hate them. Pretty much 95% of the competent killers at red ranks go for a slug fest. There are so many games where you end up with 2-3 and even 4 people slugged. This is NOT fun at all from a survivor perspective. It99 comments 2,201 views last activity

Actually, North U.S users's skill isn't good like Korean server. Especially, many survivors in U.S server don't know how to do fast-gen-rush, self-heal, 99% heal fake, managing gen location, etc. So killers are over-estimated by low class reddit and forums. (Especially, Nightmare is just good killer not op. But many newbies don't know how to face him and write note that nightmare is op) In K3 comments 191 views last activity

Its widely known that tunneling instead of hooking every survivor is more effective. Its not even straight up tunneling one person, only ignoring one person and never chasing them, gives the killer a better chance. Hooking every survivor three times makes the game a lot harder. So would you as killer or survivor want a mechanic which makes 12 hooking viable? Or what are your reasons against it?60 comments 1,201 views last activity

Plague is one of the hardest killers to rank up with, you seriously can’t just count fully infecting a survivor as hitting them. I had a game where I got 3 kills and I still depiped despite it also being a long game! Why are Plague players punished for using her power? Please fix this and also the problem with her pools of corruption spawning in the corner of the map.6 comments 141 views last activity

I still get those killers with a ping around 100+ ms and they still get those illegal hits (russians for my region). If it doesn't work, at least remove DC penalty so I'm not forced to play against those.0 comments 31 views last activity

Here's a quick run down of the maps left Coldwind Farm with 5 map variants Cortus Prenn Asylum with 2 map variants Backwater Swamp with 2 map variants Red Forest with 2 map variants We also have Haddon Field and The Game as possible maps for reworks since they are outdated compared to the other new/dlc maps. In all we have 11-13 maps that are still in need of a rework. So how long do you12 comments 371 views last activity

I know it sounds paranoid, but we already have examples of such dirty tricks played by other online game developers that try to balance some broken rng-based mechanics by adding hidden rng bias, some games match players with worse teammates to make everyone stick around the golden 50% winrate etc. Lately I have noticed something similar in DBD and I want to know if someone else had the same obse6 comments 112 views last activity

Recently I've heard by leaks by daylight that tommorow a new clown cosmetic will release and I love the killer ( especially now with the buff) I was just wondering what is this communities favorite clown set, mine is personally his original with the whole ringmaster attire but at times I play as a set in which is similar to Twisty the clown from AHS.

RNG gods hate me even more than usual and while learning blight I keep getting awful maps, specifically: Lerys The game And most recently, haddonfield. Haven't got Hawkins yet and midwich was actually not bad, a couple of survivors tried the hold W tech, it went poorly. But otherwise I can't really find a way to use his power that actually does anything apart from waste my own time on these3 comments 41 views last activity

I just played a match on Grim Pantry, and I couldn't Slam ANYTHING. Everything was made of butter and I just slid off it. Trees? Slide off it. Rocks? Slide off it. Boats? Slide off it. Pillars? Slide off it. I know Blight's collision has always been buggy, but I physically could not bump into anything at all except the crates.

There are so many threads that speak of keys being unbalanced, but I don’t get it. Survivors still have to complete generators to have it spawn early. 2 Survivors = 3 gens. 3 survivors = 4 gens. Yet I see killers complaining all the time about it, I understand your frustration about losing points, hooks and pips. But surely is you see a survivor with a key, you have the option to alter your per100 comments 1,411 views last activity

There are a few things you can use to figure this one out. Daily salt from survivors. You 3 or 4k. All generators were barely completed or weren't. The most important one: They say something like "such a boring killer to face YAAAWWWN". You get 3 kills or 4 on most games. More than one generator pops quickly but you immediately do what you can to slow them down (slug). You are smooth in a9 comments 91 views last activity

Logged on this morning to see my rank reset from 4 to.... 5. Am I the only one that thinks old rank reset was better? I'm guessing they figured too many former red rank players were facing noobs at rank 10? But really it's only moved the problem to red ranks. Now it's practically impossible to get away from high ranks with how easy it is to pip, and this has inflated high ranks with bad players.0 comments 41 views last activity

Idk where to put this for the q and a's But freddy's map got 5 variants all with graphical reworks So I'm wondering if its possible to see that with haddonfield and the game now these will probably be the last ones for said change but still What if Edit I found the q and a section (I was blind) i will repost it in there when I can2 comments 51 views last activity

I'm really interested in this killer, but not sure I want to go through the hell of learning her. Right now, I only really play Nurse and Legion. But Legion gets boring after a few games and Nurse can only be played during certain hours (SWF times or more likely to get red rank survivors only times), or else I just steam-roll (which is extremely boring for me).

On of the more common arguments about keys is that they give the survivor a free escape, and cuts out a lot of the game for the other players. However one argument I haven't noticed that often is the other survivors still in the game. If someone escapes through the hatch in front of the killer, they're potentially screwing their teammates over, either because the gates are too close together, o5 comments 61 views last activity

Landing Victor’s pounce is very similar to landing a close range hatchet with Huntress. The hitbox is smaller and more directional than a standard M1 lunge attack. PC Survivors can spin like crazy to take advantage of that, so its much easier to mess up. Console Survivors, however, usually don’t have the sensitivity to do crazy spins so they get hit much easier. So pro tip for Twins players. Re13 comments 231 views last activity

Usually, getting off of a generator with ruin active will result in you losing pretty much all of your progress on it if it was over 50% done. But with repressed alliance, gens don't regress for 30 seconds giving you a little time to do something. One of the most time consuming things you can do when you have this perk is use it when you go to save someone on hook, that way you retain your progre29 comments 1,541 views last activity

So, many people take Lightborn, but not near as many use it correctly. My advice is you pretend you don't have it. Don't give away at the first pallet the Survivor tries to blind you at. Look away like you are trying to keep from being blinded. Then you can use it later, more effectively, when someone tries a shoulder rescue. In other words, I take it all the time and don't actually let them3 comments 71 views last activity

Don't get me wrong, I'm not calling them OP or anything like that, I have no idea if they are. I just don't know how to deal with the amount of quick pressure that Victor can place on a map, once one or two people are injured.20 comments 951 views last activity
