  • So crossplay between most platforms got announced in this post: https://deadbydaylight.com/en/news/breaking-barriers-with-cross-play-and-cross-progression , but I have just a single question about it, since Freddy isn't available on Switch/(I believe not there on Windows Store either), how will getting into lobbies with one work? Will there be data there so that Survivors can play against him bu

  • But I dont have the perks I like unlocked on him. xD Sorry, devs, no buy/support. Simply because I need to grind the same perks I already unlocked on my main character. It was fun to grind and play with random perks the first 100-200h, but now it is nothing but unnecessary rutine after 8h work. Good work, but you can keep the cosmetiks.

  • Genuinely Curious, I know Lagging and Shizdazzle is common for attacks yet.. Why can a killer randomly lock on me with a attack whiles facing completely different direction? Idk if it's just a bug but I've kept running into situations where A Killer leaps Opposite way yet suddenly 180° Degree turn into me... I've tried doing this myself yet i cant seem to figure out how they do it?... Thanks for

  • we got boddy blocked all the game like that because of the spawn of ruin there, behaviour should fix this, and those killers should get banned.

  • As for me these maps should be fixed and I will try to explain why: HAWKINS NATIONAL LABORATORY The problem of this map, as many know, is that the pallets are very unsafe. The newly added midwich school map has 2 very safe boards and 2 strong windows (at least until the walls next to them are broken). Hawkins doesn't have ANY safe pallet and it has only 1 not bad window in the isolation ward

  • I've been playing the game for a long time on PC and my pc broke and I play console now and there's so much one sided talk of certain play being OP. Survivors are too OP they can do stuff so quick or killers are so OP how can anyone win at red rank. The game is decently even but there's some killers that definitely are easier to play and stand out and can end games quick. Especially on console wh

  • Why won't there be cross progression available between DbD for Xbox Console and DbD for Xbox PC (both are through game pass). I have to sign into my Microsoft/XBL account to play either of them, so why isn't cross-progression possible?

  • I believe Pinhead from Hellraiser would be super scary. He has a lot of supernatural powers and maybe his basic attack could be him quickly removing one of his pins from his head to hit the survivors with it. And his cooldown after he hits could be him putting it back on his head. Would look awesome. For his power super powers there are many ideas from the movies that can be used. I would also

  • The devs have implemented Comically Large Generators to the game. Instead of making the gen times bigger, the Generators are Bigger. 20200717123730_1.jpg 20200717125022_2.jpg It is taller than a standing Dwight.

  • Im bored of the current score board. I dont care how much bp other players earned or what perks they played with. I would like to see what survivors did, or who did the most work, and I dont want my stats to be hidden. Here are my ideas: or maybe it can be a pie? What do you think about it? Are you not bored of

  • Instead of impacting skill check queues(which is pointless against any survivor that's paying attention). Cause all survivors to hear the Huntress' lullaby, regardless of proximity or killer. How is this different from just VSing Huntress? I'm glad you asked! Each stack causes the lullaby to get a bit louder, with 5 stacks MUTING all other sounds. This incentivises Survivors to either use thei

  • If you're like me and sometimes find progressing in the rift much more slower than other games with game passes, then perhaps you might agree there are ways to make it more manageable. Here are some suggestions that'll make completing rifts easier. -Daily challenges now give fragments -All tome challenges from previous rifts still give fragments for the current rift. -The amount of days to fi

  • I was playing Hag on Primary School. Hooked a Laurie , placed about 3 traps in choke points to defend the hook then i went off to do other hag things. 5 seconds or so later, Laurie got unhooked and 5 more seconds later she tripped one of my traps. I immediately TP-ed, slapped her and picked her up but was DS-ed. End game chat, they called me a camping tunneler that forced them to use DS.

  • I've come across the Oni when his blood fury is active many times. I pretty sure he has an ability which goes something like this 'Charge in a straight line, any hit on a survivor will immediately put them into dying state'. If so, how come whenever he activates this ability and I go round corners to avoid it, he is able to go round corners and down me instantly. Because that isn't a straight l

  • So I'm a big fan of the Grudge, and Insidious, and this game. And I got to thinking to myself.... "What other ways can you make a ghost scary in a video game" And I was like hmmm, you know that slow creeping fear that comes to shock when you see Myers staring at you....thats pretty spooky. And I thought, you know what'd be cool. Is if a ghost killer, Similar to how the Wraith works, had to

  • I played killer yesterday, vs an swf, and i hooked someone, went away, but a gen popped and rancor showed me a survivor near the basement where the first one was hooked, so i got back, and downed him. But i couldnt pick him up at all. i tryed several times. Then the 2 flashlight guys came to rescue the other two, and i conceded the game. I told them it was because they cheated, and they told my

  • If you see something in a post or comment that you don't agree with, don't feel obligated to respond to it. It's fine to have discussions, but arguing gets you nowhere (especially if it was written on a whim). The devs don't take the forums seriously enough to change the game. No matter how much you whine, no matter how many people whine, 99% of the time, nothing will happen. The devs decide on

  • I've seen several different posts of players asking for some kind of map voting system in matchmaking, whether to bolster the map rotation or improve the chances of dodging a map that someone doesn't want to play on. However, there have also been good arguments about why this wouldn't work effectively (every voting situation would be a 4 to 1 against killer, likely introducing high bias towards s

  • Matchmaking is just so ridiculous you can't try a new killer because you get to play with only red ranks when you are not even a purple rank

  • So they announced Crossplay and everything soon, but I misunderstood something about crossprogression, they said it'll be available for Steam/Stadia/Switch, I'm originally a switch player, does that mean I can transfer my switch player to my xbox or just Steam/Stadia?? I didn't understand that.

How would it be, if those perks would be able to exist, without getting nerfed, but still not in every freaking single match existend? Well then I have maybe the answer for you (would need m

  • Does anyone find this perk useful when running it alone, without unnerving presence and distressing? The skill check isn't actually "tremendously difficult" as it's described. It's pretty easy to hit. It seems to only be useful in stopping gen-tapping during chases.

  • Just had a match as leatherface on PS4 where my end result was 22,037 points but i only got 33,055 Bloodpoints in total in this match. + I had BBQ on tier 1 with 2 stacks.. So i guess its bugged again?

  • So I could have sworn that using Head On on a Plague that has her Corrupt Purge would stun her out of her power, but on live servers, only pallet stuns will end her Corrupt Purge. I have been Head On'd multiple times in public matches as well as in custom games with friends and her power stays even though she has been stunned. Was this changed recently? Or is it a bug for Plague?

  • This idea is mainly for killer as survivor mobility isn't really an issue. The main problem facing a lot of killers is lack of chase ability and mobility. So many of these killers (eg Legion) will run chase perks to substitute the killer's lack of chase potential. What if we made a new perk category, mobility? There's so many ways you could integrate this, from teleportation to speed buffs. Sa

  • The episodes will probably be 15 minutes longs & will be about the killers Bio.This will add more about the Killers motives,thoughts,& how they actually sound like.The show should be called "Into The Fog". Question:Who's Story would be most hyped about. My answer would be Ghostface,Deathslinger, Or Legion

  • I play mostly killer and survivor from time to time.What i've learned so far is that survivor skillbar is really really really low.In the very few ocassions I face decent survivors,mostly in swf,most of them are really salty for playing the game and doing what a killer is intended to,especially when i'm the one winning.But really survivors smack talk and have something bad to say no matter what t

  • If you ever looked into the add-ons of the nurse you might noticed that her add-ons aren't so good. I mean her add-ons got changed in a nerf so that's completely fine. But I never noticed how bad they actually were. Out of 20 add-ons that she has only 2 are good. Some of them are just meme add-ons which don't help at all. Others are making the nurse weaker which a add-on shouldnt do. Or make her

  • I know there's been talk about Huntress being reworked, and whatnot. So I got to thinking idly. When it comes to her lullaby, + the perk that tells the killer a survivor is cleansing and whatnot. Would it be fair, to change up the volume or tone, a slight bit, of the lullaby humming she does, just so, for that survivor sake, that survivor has an audio cue, their action is very much noted by th

  • I jump in lobby as killer to have some relax in friday evening. After i check names of my survivors and just see 4 SWF with over 2000 Hours on everyone. I decide to not simple leave lobby, pick up wraith, stand still of the map. Best part was when i notice they all use OoO 😁 So luckly this was my "favorite" Squat to play with. Funny how they run around whole map with 4 flashlighs just to find m

To top it off I still get ds'd twice even though I didnt tunnel AND I'm still getting mute injured survivors waiting for what survivors I could pick up waiting to stun me. Between that and a grossly terrible powered killer where I tormented 1 person th

  • Just had a thought that the "trapper" should be named the "bear trapper" because thats all he has. Maybe he could get some more tools to work with? Like some sharp wire he can place on 1 window in a map and scrap sharp metal which can be placed on a pallet. You could mix it up with add ons or something, but how would you like these? The wire could make fast vaults impossible or damage people

  • The stand is a novel by Stephen King about a plague called captain trips that kills 99% of the earth's population. Multiple parties are set up across America to survive. This evil sorcerer called Randall Flagg builds an empire in the apocalypse as well. The novel is regarded as one of King's best works and is over 1000 pages long.

  • This is more of a dumb rambling There's a lot of discussions popping up about which killers have counterplay, what killers don't have counterplay, etc etc. Personally, I think every killer has plenty of counterplay. The discussion should be about whether they are too strong in their area of strength or whether the killer should be changed so it feels like what a survivor does have more of an ef

  • A couple days ago I saw a user mention a slight rework to the shrine to help new players grind easier while also creating more build diversity. I loved the idea and wanted to expand on it slightly and see what others think. The shrine is now two seperate collections of four perks. One would be four survivor perks and the other would be four killer perks. If you use perks that are on the shrine y
