In my opinion nemesis is one of the most boring killers and biggest let downs in dbd. He is a very cool killer that just doesn’t have much going for him. Here are some changes I would do to make nemesis more fun to play as and against 1: Zombies Zombies is nemesis most unique part of his kit but they are not that useful all the time if ever.

For the past week or so in my region (Asia server) I am only matching with players who are obviously stronger than before. I have been winning more than 80% of my matches using Singularity, but for the past week I cannot win even half of my matches. Many other players seem to feel the same way. Has there been any changes to the skill ratings? Or have I suddenly become a bad player? Do you fee0 comments 31 views last activity

Part of this is just a mini-rant that is not aimed at a particular person but moreso how discussions end up devolving on the DBD Forums that makes it incredibly frustrating to discuss anything. Let's create a hypothetical scenario that breaks down exactly what I have an issue with… 1.) Person A has an issue with an ingame mechanic or perk.

So I just recently posted a thread about how many people think tunnelling is necessary in public matches. Posting a thread, of course, isn't scientific or anything like that but the majority of people (and by a significant margin) who responded said tunnelling was unnecessary overall. I disagree with the position that tunnelling is necessary due to my personal experience but I at least understan90 comments 1,813 views last activity

What exactly are survivors supposed to do over 40 seconds of no gens? Why would a killer not run a perk like this if they want to win? Say 1 person would be getting chased for the 40 seconds, if the other 3 would be available to do gens, that's 1,333… worth of gen progression lost for the survivors (best case scenario) and there's not a lot survivors can do to prevent this. *Also I completely fo35 comments 1,983 views last activity

It does not help or aid discussion. it does nothing but make you look childish. Learn better words and actual discussion tactics, stop using this. I realize it's the forum's favorite tool, to say "Oh well you don't agree because you suck at the game", but it makes everyone hate you a little more when you do this. If you state someone is bad at the game and that's why they disagree, not only does0 comments 61 views last activity

im starting to realize that BFFs might be a largely ignored add-on. and i found out that this add-on should actually be A-tier. paired with other Haste-giving perks like (bear with me) NOED, Batteries Included, PWYF, Furtive Chase (end-game slugging), even Machine Learning. this would give Legion such a massive eng-game buff its insane. see it like this: BFFs gives you a 6% movement speed boost4 comments 93 views last activity

This is something I wanted to talk about for a while, but after testing Skull Merchant extensively for months I have only noted 2 things that are keeping her currently at F tier, (One of which is unintentional) The Frozen Drone Bug: A widely reported bug, and hopefully something that can be fixed in the down time of the rework, it really is annoying and it isn't an exaggeration to say its a gam8 comments 191 views last activity

Seriously, After 8 years, why are we not having it? I dont want to keep playing a match after a robot tunnel out my teammate at 5 gens, why should I continue playing after that? You know its kinda impossible to win a 3v1 at 5 gens… or even a killer slugging all the team for 4 minutes, why these devs let these things happen?

I have been talking about my issue where I couldn't connect to dbd, and I think I know the solution, today I received a message trying to log in saying that I wasn't in the correct version of the game, but there's nothing to download, so i suppose that in the next version my problem will be fixed So... when is the new patch going to drop? 😗10 comments 211 views last activity

With the advent of the Bloodmoon rapidly approaching I wanted to ask you all: How would you improve the Bloodweb? Are you satisfied with it as-is? Are certain items too rare or common? Is the Bloodweb too expensive or cheap? Does it take too long to spend Bloodpoints? I’m a reasonably patient woman. Even then spending Bloodpoints feels too slow. My most requested Bloodweb improvement would be fo2 comments 51 views last activity

So I have a challenge to get 18 sabotages... I was thinking to myself trying to get 18 legit sabotages would take me days... so instead I figured I'd end up spamming it whenever possible... Since this is probably a throw, I thought why not lean into it and make a build where the entire purpose is to sow confusion for the killer? Sabotuer obviously ca21 comments 331 views last activity

I got server disconnect before i got to video this, so i took the snapshot anyways to show and see if anyone else has seen this, what killer is this? plus i couldn't see him but players were been downed and hooked.

Did you guys notice that since today, whenever you move your camera to the back, your survivor automatically follows direction of the key button you're holding?

i've only encountered this three times and yet it actually irks me thinking about it. it's pointless yet effective against survivors and as a Killer main, i can't stand seeing people use these perks and slug people. like honestly this will be the first (and hopefully last) time i'll get disorderly on here. but actually, you disgusssssst me. stop it bro. and i bet you're pairing it up with face th7 comments 591 views last activity

let’s talk about aura reading. Since the distortion nerf I’ve seen killers running whole builds of nothing but aura. While it could help them, there is little to nothing survivors can do since the distortion nerf. Bbq and chili, lethal pursuer, friends til the end, darkness revealed and even killer add ons that give them aura reading. Seriously aura is ruining the game.

I don't understand where the enjoyment comes from using a perk that plays the game for you. It guides you to exactly where you need to go. Where is the fun when you don't need to think about your chases at all?46 comments 1,121 views last activity

Well this game has hit a new low! Every time I'm winning as killer, some grubby little survivor starts lag hacking to make things unplayable. Time to stop playing this waste of time game since the DEV promote cheating so much.0 comments 21 views last activity

I'm not fan of speculating on strengh of something only by stats, and I don't believe Chucky is that bad right now (he is definately bad right now, but not to this degree), but it's sad case anyway. 2024 was the year, which will remind me for a long time that killer can be completely destroyed in one day, if there will be enough complains, and it literal53 comments 1,311 views last activity

Listen up nowhere to hide is for terrible killers. Like you cant find survivors so you use the perk and it plays the game for you like it is op no cooldown nothing you just kick gens and see all survivors like crazy to me if survivors had a perk like work on gen for 5 secs to see killer for 5 secs and keep regetting on the gen killer mains would be going crazy.59 comments 1,061 views last activity

Hey all. I haven't been around much lately, between the release of Sparking ZERO and an anecdotal increase in killer toxicity via constant bleedouts I've taken a hiatus.

I'm a Freddy main, but I am curious how certain perks work on him as if the Survivors are asleep, they hear a lullaby. For example, what if I use Unforseen? Will my Terror Radius be on the generator only for awake Survivors? What about Hex: Plaything?7 comments 201 views last activity

A small issue I noted, and other characters like end transmission, have these issues but I wanted to talk about these three since a skull merchant rework is rapidly approaching, I think its something to talk about. The lack of cosmetic, especially rare level cosmetics make the characters seem more bland. There isn't alot of mixing and matching you can do with these characters, cause they either0 comments 21 views last activity

I've seen many people complain about this Perk now and yes, it needs to be reworked. But at the same time, it's quite easy to counter. Just jump into lockers, Knockout requires a down with a basic attack, and when the Killer grabs you out of a locker, those conditions aren't met, thus preventing your Aura from being hidden. It also counters another popular Perk at the moment, Surge. It has the s44 comments 831 views last activity

I get that she is weak, and she was buffed for good reason. And a lot of the time, she's okay to play against. But there is zero penalty for her to just spam teleport to mori survivors early. Its like Tombstone Michael, but far worse, because at least Michael has to do a boat load of stalking to unlock his power.

Can you finally come forward and provide us with a list of countries where the collection is unavailable? Why do people have to ask your customer support for that information to avoid the risk of losing both skins and money? Where is PSA? Where is your transparency?

In solo q, lets be honest bros, if you get a tunneled out before getting 3 gens done its just a go next situation, and even that its being ultra hyper optimistic. But there is always gonna be a "we can do this!" surv who just comes right before the second skill check on second stage to save you and be like "let me heal you!", and then be shocked when you refuse to continue playing.

I have no way of explaining this or why it happens but whenever I go into the basement of this house my entire game starts chopping up it happens when turning my fov as killer if you stand still nothing happens but as soon as I start moving my fov left or right while moving forward it happens there’s other buildings that do this too but this is the main culprit.

I've seen a few people mention or talk about killer abilities being made too complex, the highlighted reasoning often being that there's too many killers, some with rather confusing abilities that make them very frustrating to play against. This makes the game rather difficult for newer players and by extension solo q. I saw this being especially talked about when it came to Pinheads box mecha41 comments 782 views last activity

Treat this topic lightly. It's not about discussing x or y playstyle. I wish to create and actual IRL rulebook of the widely known "survivor rulebook for killers" But I need y'all help.

I think it would be interesting to do an event that is like "killer fusion" where two original killers are combined to make a new killer, but with some form of both abilities. Or perhaps a new ability that is some kind of combination. For instance, Nurse/Huntress would have nurse's blink and huntress hatchets. The character would visually look like a combination of both characters, say nurses fac0 comments 41 views last activity

https://youtu.be/CHqz3MCKQQE So I was Azhymovs' video on which killers would be the biggest threats to Humanity, and it got me thinking, if we were to take the Killers in-game and place them back in our modern world, how would they fare realistically?

I never dc, but my game does crash, a lot. Only DBD, not any other game. For some time my game keeps crashing on me, mostly in the middle or right at the end of matches. My screen freezes up and then I'm met with the DBD logo, then the matchmaking is locked for 1 minute, 5 minutes, 15 minutes, 30 minutes, then 45 minutes. And today, I got a 6 hour penalty cause my game crashed in my second match.3 comments 71 views last activity

Seriously, this is annoying… I dont waste my time going to the gates to do nothing besides watching teabags, the devs must do something about it.

So the entire reason survivors supposedly complained, whined, and got Skull merchant killed after her rework was supposedly because 'she has too much'. She could go undetectable, get haste, and slow people down but that was just far too much for people to keep track of I guess. Yet strangely, I am not seeing these complaints at all with new Freddy!
