  • Recently, we have been getting power reworks or killers that have amazing anti loop potential, that makes looping irrelevant. We had oni, where in his power, he denies almost every loop besides shorter loops and long walls. After Oni we had the gunslinger, who can shoot over most tiles and can reel survivors in, if he can see them. We got pyramid head after gunslinger, who can shoot through walls

  • I've played dbd for years now. I've always loved it, even before I started playing, but it just feels boring now. Idk what it is, but I rarely wanna even start up the game now, and I hate that considering how much time and money I've put into it, and when I do start it, I either get a feeling of dread or just plain tired, from just loading the game up.

  • When downing a survivor with a basic attack Surge activates, the nearest 1/2/3 generators regress 8% instantly and continue to regress, if they were already regressing the regression speed of the gen is increased 20%, surge can only trigger every 40 seconds. This would still only have the 8% regression on non regressing generators with no regression penalty to regressing generators. This makes

  • I just played a game against another 4man-SWF. When I saw OoO in the game, I figured that this was just going to be another toxic-sweat match. But when I watched back the replay of the game, they had a lot of fun and even laughed at stuff normal people rage at. I wish more SWF were like this, honestly. Check it out (starts at 3L13:30 mark)- I was the Nurse https://www.twitch.tv/videos/6877329

  • Hello fellow fog runners. I've come to a conclusion that makes me sad.. people just don't get it. Or maybe its ME that doesn't get it.. I'll explain.. I play survivor and killer mostly equally, but prefer killer. I am a huge fan of the original Texas chainsaw massacre for over 20 years so obviously main Leatherface. After 3 years of playing, I've come to a point where literally 9

  • I've prestiged almost every character that I have atm and it's getting boring using the exact same perks as I used for every other survivor. I wanna try new builds, whether they're risky, safe, sneaky, bold, helpful, selfish...Give me em all! Perks I have available: - All general perks - Dwight - Meg - Claudette - Jake - Nea - Ace - Bill - Feng - David - Adam Those are the perk

  • Here's a strategy timeline for Killer that I won with numerous times against both Solos and SWF, using a plethora of killers. Now the purpose of this build is to immediately take out a Survivor in the early game and leave only 3 Survivors to work on gens. This will give the Killer a better edge of achieving that oh so loved 4 kills. Here is a detailed walk through on how it works: Before I st

  • So i went against a clown with annoying add-ons with my friend. But we had a rank 20 and a dumb red rank Dwight. This killer also was decent and I found a key and escaped through hatch when I was last alive. Next match same killer and he finds me, plays dumb and then I make a mistake after looping him for like a minute on two tiles right by each other and then he shakes his head. I found a key ag

  • I dont want to be sexist but 3 of the best killers in the game are females: Nurse, Hag and Spirit, and I think it's a bit weird. I really like their powers and all, and I really dont want to offend anybody, but I suddenly thought about this and decided to start a discussion. Either way, with the adition of Pyramid Head, I think we need a female killer now, just to even things up.

  • Like I totally didn't know that until a couple of wise survivors told me so in post game chat. Makes the games "boring" you see. Like I kept walking the same path, but I was also camping. The gens that is. Not the people. Also something doesn't have to be living for you to camp it apparently. And like, not three genning yourselves is completely my bad. Because I camped gens.

  • Every day I will propose changes to 1 survivor perk and 1 killer perk to make them not unusable garbage like most perks are. Survivor Perk: Up the Ante - You're a big time gambler, ready to risk it all. Grants a passive 3% luck increase to each survivor. Gives you the ability "Cash In". Gain a token when you perform the following actions: performing a hook save, taking a protection hit, heali

  • Hello there. Like many others out there I am a huge fan of The Trapper. I have several hundred hours played in just him alone. Many years ago, when there were only 3 killers, he was considered the best of the 3 killers. Back when infinites were truly infinites, The Trapper was the only killer able to shut those locations down. Then time passed, Survivors and Maps were brought down in power, more

  • I know I've said this before but I think this would make strategizing with other survivors and just make being a single survivor easier and more fun. I play SWF alot. I have about 3 different groups I play with. But they cant all be on at the same time. Sometimes I've gotta play alone. I think that if we had an in game chat..FOR SURVIVORS ONLY....it would make it more interesting. Not only be abl

  • Let me preface this by saying: I understand the reason for the killer lock. I understand it's so high rank players can practice as new killers against a fair survivor lobby. This is all understood. Now, to my point: If killers have to have a load out ready before even searching for a match, so should survivors. There is absolutely no reason survivors shouldnt also be locked into their choices.

  • Why is it only available in a bundle for people who do not already own DBD on PS4? My BF is a huge fan of Silent Hill and is a little upset that, if we were willing, we'd have to spent $67(CAD) on a bundle that includes the base game and 2 DLCs that we already own just to get this Theme. I'm just curious as to why the theme isn't available to players who don't want to re-buy the game, DLC they

  • This is mainly a sort of rant of some thoughts I had written down so I don’t forget. The main problem I've noticed is that somehow anyone can play this game and not improve or acquire any new knowledge on tactical gameplay while still performing “well” based on the emblem and ranking systems. The emblem system is divided into four parts of survivor gameplay and they all have an equal limit to th

  • If you are going to lock the killer please let us create 'sets' that we can switch between quickly instead of swapping each perk individually for different groups/add ons survivors bring.

  • Cruel Limits - Same effect but blocking windows on the terror radius off the killer, not on the area around the gen. Furtive Chase - Same effect but reduction off terror radius always (not only on chase). Boil Over - Increase the numbers of the hook's auras deny a bit, like 12 / 16 / 20. Technician - If you are working on a gen alone, at tier 3 it mutes the entirely sound of the gen until you

  • So i like to call Devour Hope the "lazy perk". All u need are 3 hooks and the game can snowball downhill real quick if not found. 2 hooks haste effect, 3 hooks exposed, 5 hooks mori I personally hate going against a killer with Devour. It honestly feels like a cheap perk. SOMETIMES it feels like the killer doesn't have to do much. To be clear I'm actually someone that does not hate No ed. I

  • I am going to start this all by saying I fully understand that without the hatch spawning in once 3 survivors are dead, the final survivor could theoretically hold the game hostage until found or the killer quits out. That said, I find it... frustrating I suppose? I don't sweat much in this game, no kill or 4k, I really don't mind just starting up another lobby and moving on. However, it doe

  • I honestly think discordance is much better and consistent. The problem with whispers is that it tracks hooked and downed survivors, making it irrelevant mid and late game and only reliable on certain killers like pig. Whispers is usually much better at the start of the game than discordance. It allows you to save time, but after you get your first hook and start snowballing map pressure, it beco

  • Devs for ages you've left this game knowingly imbalanced with matchmaking and server flaws. I have the last straw today. I've sent you plenty of feedback in the past and so has the rest of the community yet you sit on your asses for some reason over these obvious penalties to players. I'd ask why but I don't think you even know. I mean why would you leave a mechanic like ebony moris in the game f

  • I play on Xbox where the new matchmaking is being tested, and I main Demogorgon. I really don’t enjoy sweating very much in this game as I’d much rather have a casual experience (playing this game hardcore can be very draining). The past 10 matches I have played as Demo have been nothing but well coordinated 3-4 mans with multiple DS/Unbreakables and Dead Hard. I don’t really mind losing in t

  • Now that Rank will soon only be about bragging rights (at least for a while) and there is going to be a more accurate way of measuring skill, I was wondering what you guys would think if there was an actual leaderboard implemented for Survivor and Killer each (with Killer counting the killer you have the highest MMR with). Maybe even a special reward like a "Top 100" outfit that is exclusive to

  • Every where I look; there is either a complaint about how other players play, a complaint on how the game is running, or a complaint about how the devs run this game. Sure there are some decent discussions but the complaints out weighs the friendly discussions by a long shot. “Spirit needs a nerf, DS needs a nerf, Deathslinger needs a nerf. Everyone is so ready to battle one another, especially w

Everyone has been asking for different rating for killers for forever and now that they do it everyone starts complaining again? Pick you're poison people I'd much rather have different killer ratings then to be demolished every time I want to play somebody new for a change. The other changes are good too. Hope everyth

  • So far tonight in 7 games I've had 5 killers dc. No one is playing toxic but for some reason they are rage quitting for no reason. Btw in 4/5 games where the killer dc'ed there was only 1 gen done. This isn't me being cocky or trying to be toxic about killers but when they dc before 2 gens are done and when gateaus are being brought that's a bad sign.

  • Both of these Killers are op, you literally don't need brain power to play with them. The Doctor just spams M2 and Myer's absurd small terror radius with a power like Evil Within just makes them unfair. Especially on small maps. Please nerf them.

  • It feels like new tinkerer is better than discordance. I got tinkerer right now on freddy so when it goes off i can teleport to the gen and get them off. What you guys think? (Also if a gens regressed by ruin below 70% will it warn you again?)

If they're not intented why make some perks only worth running if you're coordinated (so on comms) ? I can list for example Soul guard, BT, Unbreakable. Why am i saying that they are worth running only when you're coordinated ? Well soul gua

  • Really simple concept here, The Spirit gets two dimensions to her audio, while survivors get one (and maybe a second if footsteps are present, but those are nearly impossible to use). In phase walk, The Spirit hears completely normally. Survivors only get feedback that The Spirit is phasing through a phasing sound, which reveals little to no whereabouts of The Spirit. Devs, just curious, why do

  • What killers do you consider the most difficult for survivors to overcome in case of a 3 generator scenario, where killer has easy access to these remaining gens and can defend them for a long amount of time, while having a basically dead zone in worst case scenario and having from 3 to 4 survivors left to kill? What killers have the most potential to prevent these gens from being done and hold t

  • Calm Spirit has an interesting effect right now, but is sadly very reliant on the perks the killer brings, so here's my idea to make this perk more appealing, and rewarding: Animals seem to trust you as they often stay calm in your presence and help you in return. Reduces chances of alerting Crows by 80 / 90 / 100 %. Each time the killer alerts any crow , their aura is revealed to you for 3/4/

  • The question is the title. I am a killer main. With my main character, I use: -Discordance -Iron Maiden -Stridor -Mad Grit Discordance I use, to get a idea where survivors running around, Stridor I use to compensate soundbugs (hopefully), I sometimes have as killer. Iron Maiden and Mad Grit are for me "anti bully perks". Iron Maiden makes it nearly impossible for survivors to take a game

  • The skill cap on a huntress is as high as the player can push her and some people are just beyond amazing and can make plays that not even a Nurse could pull off. And you can make all the arguments about what Billy and Spirit can do, but they can't do THIS. https://twitter.com/Queen_Kuro/status/1167056139915354117 At least, not that efficiently

  • Seeing as Freddy isn't on Switch (yet), I wonder how that'll be handled. Will we just not be put against any Freddy's? (Since killers won't be able to switch with the new matchmaking system). Does that hurt us in being matched with other players? Or will Switch players be able to face Freddy, but not play as him (similar to players who don't buy the chapter, but still can play against them do
