Recently I have been soloq and firstly there has been minimal issues with slugging or tunneling. But I have noticed that literally no one will do gens. My last match I did 4 gens on my own while the other 3 survivors were doing who knows what. What makes it confusing is they all had tool boxes, possibly try to sabo the hooks? But every match is the same tonight, if I don't do gens then killer end19 comments 401 views last activity

The date is April 1st, 2025. You log into Dead by Daylight. My Little Oni is available to play as a game mode for 24 hours. No changes were made to the game mode. It was delivered as a surprise to the community. points microphone in your direction How do you feel?9 comments 293 views last activity

I want to mash these two icons together as a concept for a tattoo, but I can't find a picture of the icons without the red background. I know they exist out there somewhere, I just can't seem to find them. This is the closest thing I can find for Chaser, but i need the iridescent version without the cracks. Any help would be appreciated. 🙂♥️2 comments 61 views last activity

Thought I'd do something different today. I was in a thread a couple days ago and someone told me that Killers couldn't put together high winstreaks. I showed them a couple, but they called me a liar, essentially. So I went looking for the longest streaks and then today, when I saw this handy-dandy spreadsheet on Reddit by u/KitchenThroat5939, I decided to post it here and see what you all thin123 comments 17,656 views last activity

I finished level one of the archive and realized holy #### this game still has no idea what's doing. Choas shuffle barely did anything because people use the meta when i thought choas shuffle was supposed to teach people "Hey these perks exist" plus match making like always is still the most horrendous thing in this game. Just fix the main problems the patch today didn't fix the bug with Wesker w8 comments 221 views last activity

Apparently Bloodhunt has begun again? I haven't seen any posts about it. Not that I'm complaining, though, but it is weird that it just popped up suddenly.0 comments 21 views last activity

And let me explain why. I've never had a bot refuse to do gens, creep around the map and hide in lockers all game, wait for me to die so they could get the hatch, sandbag me so that I get hit and not them, become besties with the killer or send me a salty message after a game. In fact, I can think of multiple games where the addition of bots would have made the game more enjoyable to play. The tr12 comments 291 views last activity

A little trick that could help new players and help you find perks that you though were trash may actually be pretty good. Open Nightlight Select the perk Look at the usage by character, and you have a top 6 For example: Death bound Deathbound's list is: Executioner (Obviously), TWINS, Singularity, Cenobite, Oni, and Cannibal These perks benefit greatly if survivors group up and their po0 comments 81 views last activity

I'm really excited to see a preview for the upcoming 2v8 mode! We've never seen Survivors restore hook states yet. Imagine if we had the ability to combine items in the invocation circle and bring hook-stage healing to 1v4! Medkit + Medkit + Medkit + Medkit in the invocation circle → Yellow Herb equivalent in 1v4.0 comments 61 views last activity

the latest live balance changes roadmap has come to an end with the January update released last week with the Freddy rework. Will we get an updated one for the March and April updates releasing soon? It’s always nice to know what to expect coming in the next few months and the community loves the transparency from them.1 comments 51 views last activity

In fear to not get banned I'm not gonna say what the combo is in detail but unless there's a shadow buff I missed. 3 weskers I have faced i have started the game basically instantly exposed and dying to a wesker with lethal. Might put distortion into my build until this dies down. Because it's kinda ridiculous.4 comments 241 views last activity

For the sake of discussion, please imagine the car tire from Rubber is brought into Dead by Daylight. The car tire bounces up and down like a dribbling basketball while the survivor is being carried to the hook.9 comments 171 views last activity

In the same year when the slugging started to increase BHVR added or made significant changes: → Added Hook Camping timer → increased hook timer to 70 seconds from 60 → Nerfed almost every Gen. regress perk that was working via. hooking → Buffed back DS → Gave Survivors alot of second chance perks and utilities that works with hooking/unhooking → Bugged Flashbangs → The punishment for hoo78 comments 1,843 views last activity

I’m not sure what changed recently, but almost every game I load in to, the killer is slugging from the start. Usually with the perk knockout. This play style is painfully boring with little to no options for the survivors. So we sit there and wait to bleed out.19 comments 361 views last activity

Rather people like it or not and I imagine a lot of people are gonna disagree with this statement dbd is turning more in the killers favor honestly think about what they've changed for killer Respawning the hooks when it wasn't a problem to begin with.. if its the survivors fault they 3-gened then it's the killers fault they used up the only hook nearby Making it so the gen has to have 5% prog25 comments 1,491 views last activity

Is it just me? I still haven't received a real response from anyone yet it is still happening. Playing as surv, the killer leaves you on ground for a bit an session expires. Why am I getting a penalty for session expired. I didn't choose to get left on floor. It wasn't once or twice but several times now and itis ridiculous....…...#########0 comments 11 views last activity

I was curious, what are some of the hot takes that the community has on dbd? I feel like everyone has them and I definitely know I have a couple. Like mine are: Nemesis is well adapted into dbd, people just don't like it because they like the image of Nemesis with a flamethrower better. He's killed more people with his tentacle though. Map offerings can have a place in dbd, but they need to be46 comments 1,023 views last activity

It just destroys the cue times and makes the game a bigger chore to play than it's worth. The game mode is fun, but I don't want to wait a whole hour for one game and wait half an hour trying to play the regular game. I don't think the mode should be touched again until they fix the cue times.44 comments 1,753 views last activity

Seriously, huge fan of this game. I wish I could perfectly recall and retell exactly how I got to where I am today. A friend of mine showed me the doctor when spark of madness released and at that point I had already heard of the game through different channels but hadn't really seen it in action if that makes sense… Either way I remember in that moment thinking "this game seems kind of cringe."11 comments 161 views last activity

Play Nice - Get an Obnoxious Bully Squad. Play to Win - Get a Bunch of Solos Who Don't Even Do a GenAt least in my experience this is consistency I am seeing in this game. I load it up and notice 3 daily's involving the likes of Onryo, Nemesis, Trapper, Dredge, Killers I don't typically play so I'll use a random but still not awful build. The game decides to match me against an obnoxious (potential swf) bully sim who for the most part you can tell are just farming clips for their Tik Toks and s7 comments 271 views last activity

Honestly, I've been wracking my brain with this one, and I think I just gave up and used the build I use for Gameplay. The problem I've had is that we know a lot of the Dredge's origin story, but not much of what kind of killer it is. I had an easier time with my Unknown lore build, weirdly enough. I want some feedback on if what I have would genuinely fit the Dredge Lorewise, or if I'm stret2 comments 141 views last activity

So because I've reached Iri 1 on survivor and my Alan Wake is P100, I've been playing more killer recently and I've been enjoying it a lot. For the most part. I had one Tome challenge left last night which was to break either 2 pallets or breakable walls as The Blight and to clarify I'm awful at playing as The Blight, but decided to just go for it as I was only playing the match to get the Tome c1 comments 91 views last activity

I keep looking out for a snake charm but it doesn’t seem like it’s going to happen ? For the last few years they have released zodiac charms, the little red discs, along with a golden animal of said year. Are they skipping year of the snake ? I know we got a profile icon but I would rather have a charm. Here’s a picture from the year of the rabbit for example.9 comments 141 views last activity

Killers using a vpn to get in a game where their ping is far higher than all the survivors should be bannable. It gives them an unfair advantage from the start. They get hits that should never hit and you can clearly see them go for m1’s that are miles away because they know they can get away with it. Not even finesse or resi can counter a high ping killer at windows or dropped pallets, we should3 comments 122 views last activity

I stopped the game a few years ago and restarted playing while the chaos shuffle. The game mode looked fun untill every game I got tunneled to oblivions, slugged and the cherry on the cake my bruv would nod and tbag me on the ground.

Let me take you on a journey of heartbreak dear reader... Background So as some background... I am somewhat of a DBD scientist myself... I look for alternative/weird methods of making perks and items work. As an example a build I'm quite proud of: Engineers Toolbox (purple 100% repair speed one) Instructions (no skillchecks) and Wire Spool (12 extra charges) add-ons.

The first variation is better, why did you bring back the old live version in this update? They're both good but the ptb version is better. Recommendation is you do what this guy did in this video and combine them, cus it sounds way better.

Title says it, that empty node basically locks me from leveling up Dracula. It really sucks because I wanted to grind during the bloodhunt to get closer to getting a P100 Dracula, but unfortunately I don't think I can until this is fixed.10 comments 491 views last activity

What title says. I mean, you run an online multiplayer game which is unplayable and has been for months because every other game it's a lagfest. So please be nice and respectful to your player base and fix it somehow? I remember there was a time not that long ago in which it wasn't nearly this bad. I don't know what happened but surely it can be fixed. It's extremely annoying to either miss a hit2 comments 91 views last activity

So Im not sure whose idea it was to destroy these four recolors head pieces and give them Alexander's Genesis aka purple eyes, but it was terrible. Bright purple eyes with black sclera is NOT a cute look and competely destroys any chance at being good or looking good these cosmetics have which is sad because the Yun-Jin head would be super cute but its just so ugly because of the eyes.9 comments 121 views last activity

I have never seen the BP incentives go higher than 25% for a long time. I think the last time they went too 100% was on a random day and ever since than it's been broken. It has been broken now since the last 2v8 which was almost months ago now. The que times are horrible too since I have to wait almost 5-7 minutes to get into a match only to be put in EU or NAE servers. I play on NAW servers so11 comments 251 views last activity

Bhvr. Please. Yall have to do something different. This game gets more and more buggy with each release.

Anyone experiencing serious increase of farming bots on European servers? I had 7 today, sometimes two in a row, other survivors I talked to had ten and more. At this point, I can name each one of them, from the classic Doctor farming bot to the popular Onryo teleporting one and the rare Ghostface. I even had a Blight. I have reported them all, but I haven't even heard back from my bot reports fr4 comments 161 views last activity

This is genuinely so sick. Best one in a little while, so much to like, so much to be happy about, genuinely so cool. Love the red not blue deep rift, not super ecstatic about all characters involved but I'm not arguing with how cool it all is still. Nice job BHVR, on that at least. 👀23 comments 581 views last activity

If you repeatedly enter a locker or repeatedly slide over a pallet, the notification sound becomes very loud! I often use "Iron Maiden" when using Huntress, but when survivors abuse this, it is very noisy because of the repeated screams! If you are noisy during the chase, it will be difficult to hear the noise of the person you are chasing, which will affect the match! To protect the ears and5 comments 141 views last activity

Relatively speaking, the Hag has a simple power. The presence of chests in the map does not affect her the same way that Freddy/Sadako/Xenomorph do. Yet, she has not yet been considered for 2v8 mode.9 comments 251 views last activity

First off I'm on console and I loved playing Freddy before the changes. Now not so much. The one thing I noticed from going against him is that hardly anyone is using the teleport to gens until endgame and that is allowing easier gate camps. I am not a fan of any killer being able to teleport at endgame because it is supposed to add to the fun of catching them, but there are some boards that g5 comments 221 views last activity

For the RE4 Remake skin can we just have the torso and pants locked while the head isn't? That way we can have our cake and eat it too(i.e people like me who don't like the remake hair can have default or be able to purchase the classic RE4 Hair).6 comments 151 views last activity

Uh am surprised that there has no been talk on this. But I honestly would love to see all killers who has mask be without them fully. Amanda was a good start but she was just partial not all and what about Anna, Frank,Joey, Frank and Susi?5 comments 141 views last activity
