Defensive Strike has an extremely powerful and game changing effect, I think it should not be achieved by either just getting lucky with those 4% or using a specific perk called Deliverance. If Killers should not have synergies between gen-regression perks - so Survivors should not do as well. Additionally, I find very unfair situations when Survivors pretty much failed, but the last one get's l5 comments 51 views last activity

PS4 players: Who else is bloody sick of trying to heal in between a pallet and instead dropping the pallet AND/OR going for a vault/pallet drop and picking up a dropped item instead. This get right up my nose.5 comments 111 views last activity

I don't know about you all, but recently I've noticed something weird. Whenever DS activates, it does NOT last for 40/50/60 seconds. It feels like it lasts for at least 20/30/40 instead, and I'm not even overexaggerating, because I know that 50/60 seconds are a lot of time in a game like Dead by Daylight. Is this a sign from the Gods to stop using this trash situational perk that4 comments 121 views last activity

So some background. I've been playing for years and have been pretty survivor sided. I saw myself in Dwight and instantly clicked to him. Dwight is a bit more tame while I'm more crazy but I too am an awkward leader of sorts in my day to day life. I mained him ever since. I played killer from time to time but it never felt like it fit, like it was right for me, like how playing Dwight felt. I fi14 comments 294 views last activity

I just had a chat with a fairly new player that literally told me "I wish I could run dead hard or decisive strike or something different that helps me survive more" I asked why didn't he just run the perks if he felt like he needed it until he was good enough to go without it, he replies "I've been playing with these guys I met and they pretty much bitched me out and told me I was a idiot and su4 comments 111 views last activity

Long rant incoming Tl;dr: Devs you might need to skip a chapter or two and just go through all the perks and make sure be feel good to use. Currently where the situation where the meta is very stagnant. Nine times out of ten you're almost guaranteed to see the same perks over and over again. But I can't really blame the player based when there is a problem with a lot of perks survivor side a11 comments 171 views last activity

Keys Start with 0 charges for opening the hatch. For every generator you complete in total, (as in you do 50% 50% of two gens and it’d still count. You gain a charge. Each charge allows an extra survivor to escape from the hatch. 1 Charge is required to open the hatch.2 comments 31 views last activity

I have a question about the huntress stun radius and camera position. I play all killers but tend to get stunned more often with Huntress. From my POV I'm far away from the pallet, but the stun still procs. Am I the only one with this problem?1 comments 41 views last activity

I had really bad games yesterday. The games per se were okish, but I got insulted a lot in the aftergame chat. Idc, but I reported the people who were clearly saying stuff that should not be allowed. My question is: is there any way to know if something happened? Like did they get a ban or something? For a reference: vommy mommy with ebony killed two people after unhook tunnel into Mori.

Ie. We know as of today, that the code system allows for the gaining of free bloodpoints (use code ENTITYPLEASED for 150,000 bp before september the 5th!) And that some (or all) will be time locked. But what is actually supported within the code system? Just bloodpoints, or can we be gifted even more, such as iridescent shards, perks, auric cells, even discounts/charecters or cosmetics?

Noed is no longer a hex perk. When noed would usually activate, (hatch close and all gens done) noed activates. The survivors are not notified of noed until a survivor is downed with it like it does right now. Noed activates for 180 seconds (at level 3). So here's why I think this would be a benefit for both sides. Survivors could wait out noed. On certain maps, noed is very difficult to13 comments 151 views last activity

I have been thinking about the issue of perks in this game and it got me thinking of a few things. I was watching space coconuts video on killer perks, and although i don't tend to like his videos at all, he did make some good points in his video on the issue of killer perks and how bad and useless some can be and this also got me thinking. about perks in this game. I would make the argument that0 comments 21 views last activity

I'm not gonna act like this is a 100% call, cause its likely to be tweaked in some way. But in its current state I feel like it could be a big issue with something like Ruin or Haunted Grounds, or maybe even Devour Hope. Since it not only transfers to totems but makes them harder to cleanse. I feel like this could be a problem. Edit: I forgot stacks reset, ignore my Devour Hope point.6 comments 141 views last activity

Greetings, I was wondering, since every chapter includes 1 killer and 1 survivor, why not give the survivor a perk which counters that specific killer, a 4th teachable perk. That would not be broken, since the perk would be useless when facing other killers. Exemples : Claudette : the old small game, which allows her to see the aura of the trapper's traps at a certain distance. Jake/Dwight :16 comments 181 views last activity

Hi guys I Just started playing DBD this week I have a question about the bloodweb. I’m not really sure how it works. I’ve been clicking and hoping it gives me what it says. Do I have to equip them or does it automatically do it for me? Sorry if this is a dumb question I just am kind of confused. Also can you use a mic for this game or only on parties.?2 comments 31 views last activity

Let's go over tunneling and camping shall we? People toss those words around a LOT on here. So let's be clear Examples of camping: Staring at the hooked survivor and revving a chainsaw face to face Scaring off survivors but refusing to chase in order to protect one hook Staying within heartbeat range of hook the whole time despite seeing no-one Here are examples of NOT camping: Chasing a su69 comments 1,062 views last activity

Ever since pyramid head came out I've only been playing him for about 80% of my killer games now. I have become addicted to his cage's and the sheer absolute counter to DS and BT, most of you would call it tunneling I call it playing the game the way i want to play it. No one should affect the way you play because the majority says it's not "the right way to play". play the way you see fit this g30 comments 411 views last activity

I've begun maining Demogorgon and I love it already. The shred ends chases quickly and portals can give you a good map control if you place them in the right spots. There's only one thing that bothers me with it and that is it's very bad add-ons and perks. ==================================== ADD-ONS: The Demogorgon has two powers, the portals and the Shred attack.

I’ve been thinking a bit about why there are so many viable killer perks compared to survivor perks, and I was thinking it could help them to give each survivor a small ability that would hopefully work with certain perks. One idea I thought of that may be too strong was giving a survivor the ability to passively raise stacks on their perks over x amount of time (would have to be tested a lot3 comments 51 views last activity

I recently watched a Scott Jund video in which he talked about the endless toxic cycle of DBD. I really agree with the points made in this video. However, I really don't know how many more games I can play, executing a near flawless match with NO second chance perks and getting insta-downed on my first hit by NOED. Currently, there is absolutely no incentive to not use second chance perks when ne2 comments 81 views last activity

I feel this community is constantly being divided by many different discussions such as camping, tunneling, second chance perks. But as i read i feel we don't get any were in our discussion on theses topics because we tend to dismiss other people argument with pity insults and without acknowledging that both sides make a good points on the other.

I have been a red rank killer and red rank survivor. I enjoyed rank reset because I liked playing meme builds, etc. Thinking about MMR, ranks have no meaning. I should assume that I need strong builds going into a game because I suspect I have a high MMR (With MMR hidden, who knows). A hybrid system would be nice.

I personally like NOED, but i see the problem people have with it and I don't like that it can be used to come back when you've been completely useless throughout the match. And since I've continuously seen posts about it, i wanted to chime in on the conversation... So what if NOED changed like this: -Apply exposed status effect on each survivor you've hooked throughout the trial when the gate3 comments 21 views last activity

Before crossplay came to DBD I loved playing killer. While yes it was harder to control the killer and performance issues were a problem, I really enjoyed killer and would win frequently enough. Then crossplay came, and as a survivor I really liked it. There isn't that much difference between a PC or console survivor and I did enjoy going against Huntresses and Nurses more often.

Am I alone in thinking the game is in a good spot? I can't be right? All I see in the forums is nerf this, nerf that, this is unfair, and I want a buff. But as it stands, I don't really think the game needs a whole lot changed. I don't think survivors or killers are extremely over powered compared to each other. I win a lot of matches I lose a lot of matches. I don't know, I don't really understa9 comments 71 views last activity

Am I the only killer who has noticed that console survivors are sweatier than the average pc player? I have never been genrushed, had more hiding, or even seen BNP until crossplay. Not to mention the horrible lag and ######### attitude with console players. It might just be my experience, but that crossplay symbol means: Lag, teabags, SWF, strong items +addons, and strong perks. I have had a7 comments 161 views last activity

https://www.strawpoll.me/20848144 because the devs do not actually give us accurate data to analyze things with before we make a statement on the state of game I thought id do a quick strawpoll of cross-play.

While it has its niche uses, Rancor currently isn't viable. I think if you were able to one shot and mori one survivor of any kind instead of just the obsession it could be great. But that could also be a sloppy way to secure a kill without doing much. Therefore you should only be able to mori survivors that have been hooked once, like a green mori but only during the endgame.

I played 5 games today, 3 out of them was only camping, tunneling and slugging with the match ending with less than 20k points for the killer and ~10ks for the survivors. Why on earth are killers able to view the survivors profiles pre match but we survivors have to deal with those kind of killers and can only see the "warnings" written by others about their playstyle after the match?

This is an honest question, because i dont think its a bug but just a weird situation. I was playing killer today as The Oni.
