Title. Normally I’m very sympathetic towards devs and understand 90% of what they do but why did they think PC console cross play was a good idea when all a killer has to do is play doctor with sloppy and you’ll lose all your frames when hit. I tried playing huntress earlier and I never left 20-25 frames. Frames have never been this bad seriously PLEASE optimize it I can’t stand this.13 comments 71 views last activity

I tested this out in a custom match to see. Sure enough, the Instructions add-on doesn't counter the Overcharge Skill Check. Seems kind of stupid given that the description of Overcharge calls it a "Skill Check". Instructions already feels like the most useless add-on. It could at least be useful in this instance. It wouldn't even be that strong of a counter anyway. Could be a bug but I wouldn't1 comments 101 views last activity

Idk anymore dude. Back to back to back games of mori's and Black Ward killers with ultra-rare add-ons. Plus bugs and crap like players getting stuck next to hills and killers seeing that you're stuck on the side of the hills and leaving them there for an advantage when they can just simply down and pick them up.

I just got blinded by a flashlight while peeking someone with my whole screen facing the middle of a wooden wall. i quickly got stunned and i couldnt see who did it or where it came from. Can people blind the killer trough walls? is it the small holes between the wooden planks? or can people blind you from outside your fov?0 comments 11 views last activity

I've been trying to make friends with killers all morning now but when I jokingly hide in a bush with my neon outfit or point and wave at them they usually just kill me. Any advice?29 comments 261 views last activity

Before crossplay, I used to have loads of fun with killer. I would have difficulty with the controls and the framerate and I would miss some attacks but the survivors I played against also had that problem so it evens out. But ever since crossplay came out I found that I have been having less fun playing as killer. Sure, I have been playing against higher level survivors but I wouldn't mind that5 comments 201 views last activity

On EVERY round I play as survivor I get a rank 1-4 Sweaty PC killer, and on EVERY round I play killer I get a toxic survivors with friends group. Plus, most of the time when I'm playing survivor I also get USELESS teammates who hide, don't save, and don't do gens all game (And yet they STILL get out because I'm caught in the end and die on first hook) There's no winning.4 comments 51 views last activity

Today I lost more motivation than ever before. I only play with people below my skill level (babies etc.) and against killers above my skill level. That's not how I play it, it's not fun like that. Especially not when the trapper's bear traps are simply IN the ground and thus virtually invisible. It's no fun like that. Every killer has noed and tunnels or camps and matchmaking has been so ####18 comments 351 views last activity

This is the build you need to win high level games in DBD. Iron Will (most consistent perk in the game. pretty much always helpful) Healing Perk (Bond, Blood Pact, Aftercare, Self-Care, Inner Strength etc.) Exhaustion perk (anything works as long as you can use it to last longer in chases) Obsession Perk (protects against auto-loss tunnel games with no Obsession)5 comments 131 views last activity

The devs were testing them in the mid-chapter PTB but they stopped them due to high ping in the PTB. But this has magically went under a rock for some reason. @Peanits8 comments 121 views last activity

Most of the Killers I come across complain about being gen-rushed, but they don't look at the fact that they've tunneled a single Survivor the entire game. Don't get me wrong, majority of Killers are actually smart and leave Survivors that really know how to loop or always lead them back to that one annoying loop area, and instead, they go after other Survivors. Or, these Killers are just simply27 comments 311 views last activity

I know you can deactivate dont bother bro. So console players try their best with 30 fps (actually 25 or less in Ormond or even worse with Fog offering) lose and just receive a GIT GUD? the console optimazation has somes MAJOR problems, when opening the game a console goes to level 4 fan speed for nothing and is not an old console the newest ones too, also iv seen lots of players saying that t0 comments 31 views last activity

If I'm on hook, and you see I'm clearly getting to second hook phase, DON'T UNHOOK ME RIGHT AWAY, time on hook is time for you to do things! Not every survivor is going to suicide on hook, some of us actually care for the team. Only unhook me as soon as you can if you see the killer is actually not interested in patrolling the hook and REALLY far away, for me not to waste time on hook and for me2 comments 71 views last activity

I've seen it here and there that some people (usually the killers) slip into their characters in aftermath chat for a bit of banter, even if just for a moment. I dunno, but it's weird but also adorable. (I don't mean acting as their char the entire chat, just some bickering and bantering) thoughts?1 comments 21 views last activity

8pm-3am are the worst hours for me. Camping killers and terrible or just 15 ranks lower teammates. Then at 4am it changes and up until 11am I usually get pretty decent killers and teammates. You guys?0 comments 11 views last activity

Survivor Perk: NOT THIS ONE: After fully fixing one generator you can now block a specific pallet from being dropped for 30, 50, 60 seconds. "You've grown tired of having people who complicate things for your team, it's time for you to now have a word about it". This would prevent "safe pallet" dropping by randoms or noobs in early game. You can also use this to troll your SWF in a chase, it's0 comments 41 views last activity

In 9 out of 10 games I see killers running the same 4 hex perks. Ruin, Lullaby, Retribution and Haunted Grounds (on rare occasion Lullaby is swapped for Devour Hope). It's not that the build isn't easy to counter, it's just the shear annoyance of it for me. Gens are harder to hit great skill checks because of the lullaby, then when the killer patrols, you lose all progress because of ruin. Finall13 comments 291 views last activity

I was talking to an acquaintance yesterday that also loves this game. When he plays killer he exclusively uses Myers and his strategy is to slug from the start. He tends to slug one person, stay somewhere close, and slug other survivors as they come to help. He doesn't hang anyone until he has all 4 survivors slugged unless it gets down to 1 gen. He told me he didn't understand why he gets so ma19 comments 182 views last activity

Mine personally is iron maiden spam Now don't get me wrong I love this perk and while it is indeed defo one of my fav perks it's very safe to say I also hate it why Well not all dweets go "ah iron maiden I'm never entering a locker again." instead a thought may cross their mind.. A dark one but a rather 200 iq one, upon realising that iron maiden has no such cooldown They simply enter and e21 comments 161 views last activity

Hex perks supposed to be thoes strong perks that can be dostoy easy and lose it for the rest of the game ( even tho only 2 hex are worth using right now). So by adding a cooldown you make the perk proc less time becauses most hex perks will last about 2 min max and with cooldown of 60 sec that's mean you can use it at best 2 times in the wole game in oeder to have a mediocre effect.20 comments 221 views last activity

I remember hearing about there being talks about rewards for prestiging other than just the bloody cosmetic items. Am I wrong in thinking this or is there actually work being done towards making prestiging worth it?2 comments 31 views last activity

When will the developers take a look at buffing Steve’s perks, he is probably the worst survivor when you look at perks. First off Steve’s perks in general are very weak simply being worse versions of borrowed time (babysitter) camaraderie (kindred) and In some ways self care (second wind). The second reason is that his perks have horrible synergy. The whole point of running s9 comments 121 views last activity

...so I could avoid the people running the current "meta build". It's always me with my boring "team first" perks and three others with their DS, Dead Hard, Unbreakable and Iron Will. Wanna know how those games go? They all die within the first minute after being cocky and hook farming each other leaving me to do gens alone.9 comments 61 views last activity

I’m playing DBD with enabled crossplay, I was looking forward to this function because I have PC and Xbox friends. I would say I play killer mostly about 70-30 ratio. My survivor experience is quite okay, tho I observed there are more killers who are face camping from the beginning. Killer experience on red-high purple rank is terrible. Since the cross play turned on majority of my games5 comments 171 views last activity

I've always enjoyed her..I enjoy playing against her more than most killers as well, I think if you look at it as a new way to chase shes a crap ton of fun..my friend doesnt like her as much but even says it's a personal thing. So yesterday we were playing survivor and went against a cherry blossom spirit..that's the purple pl e addon that increases her passive phasing..now it's not used much bec11 comments 131 views last activity

First of all, show the cursed status effect on the HUD if: -a survivor misses a skillcheck and sufferes from the increased penality from Hex: Lullaby -a survivor completes a skillcheck when this perk has at least 1 token Then make it so, if the totem isn't broken until it builds 5 stacks, it becomes a normal perk and the hex totem that once was bound to this perk becomes a dull one.

I swear this isn't another PC x Console thread, but has anyone been experiencing this? I'm on red ranks and since crossplay was added it seems everyone forgot how to play, i'm not saying "Omg console/pc players are so trash" it's more like, i play a match and everyone is from a different platform and everyone is playing like potatoes, then i play a match with everyone in the same platform and the0 comments 21 views last activity

Her traps are random, are fully under survivors' control, are not consistent to be reliable stalling tool and in some cases have no counterplay (yes, Im talking about tunneling pigs). Her ambush is literally the worst stealth power in the game, too slow, cuts your FoV heavily, dash attack announces itself with a roar before it's launched and it`s useless at loops if survivor is at least somewha18 comments 131 views last activity

Just wanted to make a compilation of who needs what in terms of addons. Trapper: Decent addons, Is far too reliant on bags. Wraith: Far too reliant on move speed after uncloaking. Others have niche uses but could use reworks. Michael: Very unique, give the strongest rewards but the biggest downsides. Others can be very situational (Mainly the mirrors) Huntress: Outdated, Iri is very strong bu14 comments 111 views last activity

I find it really distasteful to run a perk other than DS then get tunneled. Let me ask you killer and survivor mains alike would you rather me run dark sense, wake up, baby sitter, and calm spirit? I'll play a solo queue survivor game I'll escape and get a message shaming me for running meta perks like I'm supposed to run dark sense in Solo. Honestly I see no problem with either meta perks wheth27 comments 191 views last activity

The game should add a mechanic where if the killer is either in the line of sight of the hook or within close proximity say 16-20 meters the survivor that would be unhooked will not be on their 2nd hook or death hook for the next 15-30 seconds after being unhooked and hooked again.

I was just thinking about those new perks and in particular Hex: Undying and the lesser used Hexes. Normally I wouldn’t run Lullaby, but mixed with Undying, it might be more viable. My question to the survivor side of the community is, does Lullaby ever hinder you? An if so, how many tokens before you feel any pressure. Does only 5 tokens (no sound) get you?

Every other game after everything is set up, right before the trial starts I get booted off the game, then I’m giving a matchmaking locked message which has now been exceeded up to 12 minutes 😖 I have been using the cross play feature I’m not sure if this has something to do with it?0 comments 41 views last activity

Like I can't be the only one who thinks that this will change the game for the worse. Giving control of the hatch spawn over to the players, yeah tell me that a month ago and I'd think you were shooting up some of the Blights serum. I honestly feel that if this addition goes through, it won't be healthy for the game. Every match you see the offering, a boring race to either shack or main buildin8 comments 91 views last activity

I think the developers at BHVR are obsessed with the exposed status. This is my most un-favourite status, as it leaves you no counter play except to run away before you are downed with one hit. I'm trying not to complain too much about The Blight's perks, because they are truly good and worth the purchase. But all a survivor has to do to get the exposed status, is to work on a generator that a26 comments 1,461 views last activity

Would you guys mind seeing a perk like open-handed for Killers something that increases the oral reading range of Perks and add-ons. It could make great combinations for add-ons like scratched mirror and Amanda's letter. Or Also great combinations of Perks like hangman's trick and barbecue3 comments 31 views last activity

I feel like most of the problems in DBD can be brought down to 2 main points. Toxicity and Inconsistency. Toxicity is pretty self explanatory, so I won't bother with it. The big problem is by far inconsistency. Its the inconsistency of whether or not the map you got is good for the killer. Its the inconsistency of whether the perks you brought are countered by the other sides perks. Its the incon5 comments 71 views last activity
