I think it would be useful if the game had a statistics section, showing win / loss ratio based on map & killer, average chase length, safe unhooking, healings. Basically a more comprehensive version of the end game stats but a running total. I wonder if the devs have access to this data already? I think most players probably have a good understanding on where they need to improve, but havi0 comments 11 views last activity

Please keep the discussion civil. Now Doc is one of my mains, but I’m starting to wonder if his tracking kit is far too overloaded. As survivor it can be incredibly frustrating trying to find some sort of reprieve to get Doc off your back in order to heal or snap out of it. Or sometimes just simply wait to assist someone else only to have an illusionary doctor pop up at the worst possible tim30 comments 361 views last activity

Since the Ebony Mori can ruin a game and is heavily frowned upon, I’m curious if it’s ok to bring the yellow one which is to kill the last survivor by hand?0 comments 1 views last activity

How was the ninja / stranger things stream? Did we get an influx of new players? I’ve not been on this weekend, just curious if I missed anything decent?0 comments 1 views last activity

I feel like many people exaggerate how horrible and common these two things are in the forums. Like seriously, almost every game to the point where you don't really want to play the game anymore? Yeah I find that hard to believe, but who knows? I might be wrong which is why I am posting this discussion. If possible, provide a possible reason as to why you were tunneled and/or camped.

I've heard this be mentioned before by some other people, and let's be honest, just doing gens can be pretty boring. I do think a secondary objective would be the best way to get a lot of complaining to stop. Question is, what should that secondary objective be? I do think the Archives challenges were a step in the right direction, but a secondary objective in the core DbD experience would be awe4 comments 51 views last activity

Now I'm sure others have said this, but I don't think gen times are the problem, I think the biggest problem is that regressing (by normal means) just doesn't do anything. Kicking a gen takes a little under three seconds, and it takes a survivor a literal button tap to reverse that regression - something that matters so little they can do it mid chase. Generator times shouldn't be increased, bu22 comments 221 views last activity

I know it probably won't happen, there's a huge amount of legal issues, and it doesn't match the lore at all... But how badass would it be to walk around as an actual Demogorgon?2 comments 101 views last activity

This discussion should be full of small things in dead by daylight. What I mean by things can include a small tip to how a killer's power works as well as questions to the specifics of anything in the game. For example, the pig's stealth. My question is how long does the pig's stealth stay after she un-crouches? Things like that should be asked and answered in this forum. I know that there is0 comments 11 views last activity

With how BHVR has been implementing charms, it seems like they were made with the sole purpose of padding the free track of the rift. Most of the free track is comprised of charms, with the odd mobile reskin thrown in here and there. Why can't they fill in the empty spaces with iridescent shards? Or make a temporary blood point booster? Literally anything would be better than charms.3 comments 51 views last activity

I have been thinking a lot about the customizations for survivors (this could work for killers as well but could be a bit different). I was more thinking about more customization ability, maybe separating shoes and bottoms, tops and gloves, and hair and hats/glasses. This could lead to a lot more making that survivor how you like and a ton more customization ability. I've had a lot of outfits i0 comments 11 views last activity

Seriously, I'm looking for fun matches where we can all get some BP and every match has been clickly clicky nonsense, get gens done asap, and burn survivor sided offerings. Like if people don't care about bonus BP cause the killer is being nice then I'm just gonna BBQ stack and Survivor Pudding every game. Might even play sweaty Freddy, Spirit, or Hag every game too....19 comments 941 views last activity

I noticed that in a recent discussion about which killers people hate facing, Ghostie was listed by a lot of people, and I'm curious as to why? He's not incredibly difficult to deal with, at least in my opinion. As a Ghostface main, the tried and true tactic against him is just "hold w" and looping. If it's about his "totally working" reveal mechanic, then yeah - I get that. Bugs aside, I think38 comments 1,332 views last activity

I was playing survivor in one match where there was a twitch guy playing the killer. Every time I pallet stun here I did slap and point finger motion at her, and blinded her while breaking pallet. I wasn't stream sniping her - I just do it all the time. After she got me, she started to facecamp and reveal my steam profile to viewers.

It's an open secret that most maps are optimized around the killer they came with. Hag has her swamp that hides her traps excellently, Spirit has nooks and crannies that allow her to phase unseen, but also allow survivors to hide from her (after all, spirit's main counterplay is stealth, regardless of everyone crying that only chases are fun), Deathslinger has his high ledges and drop points alo15 comments 1,831 views last activity

Seeing a whirring chainsaw bounce of a collection of leaves and sticks is funny at first. But is very frustrating during a chase around the dreaded fences of Haddonfield. The same thing happens with the bamboo stalks of the Yamaoka Estate. Knives, cleavers and even claws from inter-dimensional horrors glance off like they were made of adamantium. The power fantasy of playing as killer is hard t3 comments 71 views last activity

so i've recently found a great way to farm bp without killing your teammates and maybe even ensure a pip So basically, wglf, bt, two other perks (that's up to preference), and a map with red twine (second addon is optional) , will basically make you get way more bp with 4 stacks than just 4 stacks with no map. With the map with red twine will let you track totems and gens and will earn yo0 comments 41 views last activity

As a Rank 1 Killer, the only perks that really determine the outcome of a game are gen slowdown and gen tracking perks. Perks like Enduring, Spirit Fury, Brutal Strength, Bamboozle, I’m All Ears, Monitor and Abuse, Nurse’s Calling, Infectious Fright and even Sloppy Butcher just don’t pay off. It kind of sucks that Killers have to be on top of gens and devoting most of their perk slots to them13 comments 341 views last activity

KILLER IS JUST TUNNELING, CAMPING, AND SLUGGING BY THE HOOK CAUSE THEY DONT CARE CAUSE THEY GET A TON ON BP ANYWAY... only thing keeping me playing is double bp. Im sick of the “just do gens”, ITS NOT FUN GAMEPLAY FOR ANYONE. I dont play killer anymore cause its dumb af at high ranks and survivor i only play cause of friends... we didnt need graphical updates, or minor changes to useless perk35 comments 1,611 views last activity

Console players should have legacy as they didn't have a chance to unlock legacy legitimately. As ps4 and xbox one players the game was released in June 2017 way after the legacy cutoff, I'm fine with PC Players having to of earnt legacy but on the console versions since they didn't have a chance to play when the bloodweb grind was super bad i think they have a right to have legacy unlocked.

Playing killer in red ranks is so boring and repetitive. If I don't use the same 6-7 perks, I'll get to experience the wonders of a 5 minute match. When I do use the allowed perks, I get to play ring around the rosy + Pallet Breaking Simulator™. Let's take a look at the perks shall we: Pop (nerfed) Discordance (nerfed) BBQ Corrupt Nurse's Tinkerer Sloppy (that's a stretch) Anything outs50 comments 1,012 views last activity

I just recently found out about God rocks being back in Yamaoka, I don't really know about every map, but they need to fix this right now. There are a lot of rocks that you can climb on, A LOT, it's extremely unfair for killers, we need this out of the game right now.3 comments 102 views last activity

as of recent I've noticed how gens go really quick even though I'm applying pressure I bring corrupt to stop but there going so quick 40 seconds into the game a gen is gone then another gen is gone then another in just 120 seconds even though I'm getting downs and hooks is this happening to anyone else or I'm I just loosing it?15 comments 341 views last activity

Ten matches (10!!!) in a row with the sweatiest Killers that I have ever had the misfortune of playing against. Every single one that me and my group of friends played with tonight has either tunneled or camped. What's worse is that clearly they're doing this for the double bloodpoints, but because of these ridiculous tactics, most have walked away with less than 20,000 (before double bp), which88 comments 3,401 views last activity

So, there is already a massive grind already with the characters bloodweb especially for killers, but then and if it wasnt enough there is one on the rift aswell, after u paid you literally get nothing, you just start to get stuff after playing an insane amount of games to unlock stuff.

So yeah, can you guys make that the sistem recognise when you hit the dc button, and when the connection crash. Or I don't know just remove the penality and change it, give me a blood points penalty not a time penalty.

What is something specific you're working on improving? Not just "Gittin' Gud" - I daresay we're all working at that. No, what's a general or specific skill you're currently out to pick up?

The 2BP weekend has been great for many of us. When I play a game like this, I want to unlock a wide variety of perks and then start focusing on a killer/survivor. I felt I had to push on Leatherface first because BBQ is such a game changer of amount of BP per game. My question is, do the developers really feel without the grind many of us would leave the game?

We all understand what it’s like to not play spirit, Freddy, or nurse. To play people like Myers, pig, clown, and so on. Well, I just got 4 back to back games where at least 3 of the 4 survivors ran “OOO, adrenaline, unbreakable, and decisive, and keys”. Normally I would just move and understand that this game isn’t perfect, and that sometimes you just get games like that, but the fact that it ha3 comments 81 views last activity

I’ve just got out of a round where I was bubba (Leatherface) and everyone got out. I wasn’t able to get any hooks because I was so slow. I thought it was normal but when I played mobile, I was at a speed I knew I was supposed to be, I was able to make lunge attacks, and I got a 4K without lag. But when I play on switch I get nobody. Why am I so slow. Please answer this. I deleted most of my games1 comments 21 views last activity

I just got him but with his camera angle being so low it's hard to navigate, add his extremely stiff steering and incredibly delayed fatal rush lunge and it adds up to a horrible play time. Granted it's my first match with him but I found myself being hindered by his power more then I benefitted from it.10 comments 241 views last activity

...sucks! It's so situational. I tried like 12 games already, I used different perks and strategies, I had bad teams and good teams, but you have to be lucky to do this. All your teammates can die before the EGC, or you can die, or EGC doesn't even start, or when EGC is here nobody is hooked, or somebody is quicker than me, or the person going to be hooked is on the last hook, or killer just far9 comments 61 views last activity
