  • You would think add-ons would just reinforce a specific play style or create new ones but instead they act as a crutch on some killers because they "need" them. Some power role if you ask me.

  • According to the Q&A stream Devs are monitoring PH. Most likely PH will get "minor changes" (still getting nurse flashbacks)... Let us remember what so many people have complained about. I personally can only remember two specific things: Canceling Rites of Judgment (switching from M2 to M1) has a cooldown of 0.5 seconds. According to many people here this is much too low, because PH

  • https://youtu.be/EnBDMZ-9-Dw Popular game Team Fortress 2 is getting a fan-made version titled Team Comtress 2, which is essentially a completely bug-free version of the game. It is being made by a coder known as mastercoms . She is doing an absolute great job with it. Are there any Dead by Daylight fans out there that can code masterfully and would be willing to turn Dead by Daylight into

  • Been thinking about this for a while, and actually had a lot of fun writing it. If you want to add something, feel free to do so below. This is essentially the code I'm trying to play by right now, as challenging as it can be sometimes. If you have a DC, a DOH or I'm absolutely skunking you, I will likely give the last 1 or 2 of you the game. It doesn't make a big difference to me in BP and I

  • I hate versing people who use VPN or have horrible internet where they are so laggy they hit u a mile away or when they do 360s it is so laggy and weird you just miss alot. I think it is unfair where I have 66 ping but this guy from other end of world using VPN to get into america servers and play with 250 ping. It would be nice if everyone could see everybody's ping.

  • So... I had a discussion with @dugman in another thread about the designed "bloodpoint" reward bias on the killer side (Which we both agree is fair considering survivors each have less difficulty in fulfilling scoring events) but whether it was possible for competent survivors to "consistently" surpass or even match an equally competent killer (if we're assuming matchmaking is doing some type o

  • This challenge I am finding is impossible to finish for one simple reason; My totems keep spawning out in the open, for everyone to see. Even running Undying - it doesn't help finishing this challenge. My Devour Hope keeps reseting or they just cleanse Undying and then DH - because the totem locations in this game are completely atrocious. Though

  • Why do I have to walk 5 miles around a room just to enter it? why can't the doors be open? why does hawkins have doors that are permanently closed? Do you know how frustrating it is when tinkerer goes off you can hear the generator being worked on yet because it's Hawkins you need to spend 5 minutes walking around the room because every other door is closed off? I think somehow you got the idea

  • Because I like the perk. Sole Survivor Your stacks are equal to the number of survivors in the dying state plus the number of dead survivors. You start with 4/4/8 meters of aura-reading immunity. Each stack grants 22/24/24 meters of additional aura reading immunity. Once all other survivors are dead, you are immune to all aura-reading perks. If you are the Obsession, gain a 5% movement spee

  • This was created mainly because I thought my comment was too good to be lost in the depths of another thread. It was also created because all sorts of search features are broken, and I wouldn't be able to find this one later if it wasn't a discussion of my own.

  • This was brought to my attention the other day when I heard that an sfm youtuber was planning on making oni vs hulk, how would the fight play out? Also concerning the entitys realm and onis power within the realm, would hulk be weaker,bot if we use a different version of hulk would the fight outcome change?

  • It's seriously way too low and you end up getting your POV obscured by every patch of grass in the vicinity. And for those saying it's the appropriate POV for someone crouched that low, it's actually lower than what it should be (from the survivor's POV the eye level is about equal). It's just a small QOL change that I think would make it easier to traverse while crouched.

  • For the purpose of this leaving the hook but rushing back = camping, that's why Oni, Billy and especially Spirit are so high. Good guy Myers the fairest killer of all.

  • Suggestions for this situation. Survivor is running away. I am in the process of blinking. They see my blinky fist with all of its angst! They run towards me. I try to adjust my blink. They run away from me during my committed blink.

  • Owned this game nearly 4 years but the past week has been nothing but complete un-enjoyable matches, its slowly been getting worse and worse but im sick of loading into a match to have 3 other team mates never touching gens but instead just crouching round the map. its a joke that red ranks remain at rank 2/3 but never touch gens and cant even lead on a chase. i know people will say just do swf,

  • What if instead of allowing instadowns on the last stack (which is heavily unreliable), it allows the blight to rush if he has any stacks available. Not sure what downside (if any) it could come with. Regardless I think it's a decent idea for an iridescent.

  • With this change coming, it could reward some great synergy with Prove Thyself (if you're in a swf). Do you think this will shift the survivor meta? Keep the chat respectful please.

  • Ok hear me out, I'm sure most people are familiar with this post by Otz in one of Scott's videos: While I agree with Otz, I have yet to see anyone talking about the opposite problem that DS creates. Namely, if nobody is running an obsession perk, the killer is free to tunnel the crap outta survivors. Maybe that's not the case for you as a killer. Mayb

  • (How many times can I say trap? 😄) No other Killer can be hurt/hindered by their own traps...was it because he faught back at The Entity and she forever punishes him...or is there some other reason?

  • if a survivor bleeds to death the survivor should be given an escape. it's not the survivor's fault the killer got too greedy and lost someone.

  • So... I decided to sacrifice my Saturday evening until 4am making that last 28 game push to 250 games of data between September 9th to September 27th (I realize this is a relatively small dataset but it's far more convincing to me than just throwing anecdotes around). So this is from a Rank 1~2 killer (I never depipped to R3 during this) with over 1300 hours played with "Crossplay On" for whatev

  • I have an idea for a major Decisive rework. Here it is: If you are downed within 30 seconds of being unhooked, Decisive Strike activates indefinitely until you are picked up. Succeeding a skill check allows you to stun the Killer for 5 seconds. This makes Decisive harder to abuse on both sides. Slugging and waiting it out doesn’t work anymore, but timer is halved so realistically the Killer sh

  • Mindbreaker is one of the worst perks in the entire game, even with the buff that it's getting it's still very bad, here are some changes to make it at least usable. (And maybe even decent) Mindbreaker Your distressing presence drains and weakens your prey. While repairing Generators, Survivors are afflicted by the Exhausted Status Effect . Their Exhaustion increases every second, up to a ma

  • I never play killer because i like to play with my friends and in the past all the matches that i play as killer i make 4 kills and like 2 gens was done was kind of easy ( probably cuz i was rank 20 ) But now it look like that is so much harder to play ( i am still rank 20 ) and when i say so much harder i am saying that i jump of a level that i do 4 kills and no gen was done and now all gens

  • I am sliding off things that were fine before the last update and having trouble getting past other obstacles (mostly in jungle gyms) that have suddenly become extremely grabby. The camera is also going crazy when you hit some items and when turning into a wall to get a bounce. this did not happen previously. Please revert your changes to the original settings. Is it just me or is anyone els

  • can there be maybe a 10 second time limit from when a player is disconnected to when the match automatically ends? ive had a couple games when im doing great and my internet cuts out for a second and the game decides the match is over and i cant rejoin can we get something to help with this?

  • What if DBD was a situation comedy airing on a local television network at prime time? Give me your ideas! Meg: "David what did I tell you? No mithers in the house!" Ace chimes in: "No mither? No comment" *Laugh track* Dwight: "Hey I think Uncle Talbot is here. I'm coming I'm comin" Dwight: "Aghhhhh" *Laugh track* The Blight: "Sorry for lethal rushing in like that." *Laugh track*

  • https://youtu.be/4VT0Ca-nnGo Tldr:Ds is a lot stronger as its a guarantee despite only being once per match (for you there is 4 survivors in a match) and giving survivor complete invincibility for one minute with ub. And like otz said you could pretty much bring any obsession perk and the killers forced to slow down their momentum a

  • This 3 Iridescent Devout emblembs challenge is a bullshit, I got 11 hooks and the last survivor run to hatch and I get Merciless Killer with everything iridescent except a motherfucking GOLD DEVOUT emblem and there is no progress to iri pip, it just stuck at gold pip. They need to change the descriptions. This challenge is frustating to get and the only way to get another killer challenges beside

  • Devs, you have made many changes in this game without telling us anywhere, without letting the community discuss about the changes before you made them live. For exemple, you have changed the generators' sound when they are being repaired, it's a killer buff, there was no info about it anywhere . Also, you have changed the falshlights. It's almost impossible now to do flashlight saves. The tim

  • Plague has been my 3rd main since her release, but I’ve gradually played her less and less over time, for good reason. She’s almost always perpetually bugged. From her headpiece getting her stuck in doorways, to Purge arcing in strange ways, it’s always something. One thing gets fixed, and another bug pops up. The varying degrees of lag since dedicated servers. This combined with the slow ve

  • Besides Otz,and by good I mean not fooling around every game,dc-ing or killing themselves on hook when something doesn't go their way. Watched a bit of Zubat stream recently and he literally dced after he didn't liked something in the match.Used to watch Puppers a while ago until I saw him just throwing games and killing himself on first hook for no reason. The others I watch they either just e

  • I don't exactly know how to call this, but it left a really sour taste in my mouth. I recently started playing DBD, circa a month and a half ago. I am a Solo survivor main currently on Rank 8 due to, I assume, my inherent capacity to remain hidden from the killer and being Objective focused. I have come to understand the nature of the game, you will survive some games, you will die in other game

  • The recent and upcoming changes to him were good. Previously he was the Killer with the most counterplay by far . Sabo could negate his power almost entirely. He couldn´t reset traps on the ground without picking them up despite him having a base carrying capacity of only 1 Trap at a time. My complaint now is that he still faces the most hardships of the Killer roster. There are perks that

  • I can explain some of these. Laurie is strong willed enough to face the doctor. Plague would be beat, but Laurie may die of sickness. Same applies to Pig and her RBTs. Spirit seems one sided, but Laurie may hold out long enough to survive. Demogorgon is almost invincible.

  • The patch notes said he lost his ability to fake his m2. Ok, fine, whatever, I thought it was fine but I guess not. But then I see he got a buff. And its kinda bad. Why would I want a faster cool down on an ability that sucks? They should have buffed the actual ability rather than the cool down. There is no incentive to use it as of now.

  • When I heard about them buffing unpopular perks, I was excited, and it is indeed a good thing, but after reading the whole Developer Update, I realize: No Object of Obsession changes Out of all the meta perks right now, only nerfing the killer one (Pop goes..) Nice little buffs to a lot of perks, but none of them can shake the meta I know Devs invested a lot of time in this patch to balanc
