  • So umm, was playing a Spirit game. At about midway match the game starts agging terribly for me (ping) but I can still somewhat move around. Survivors, however, are completely still on my screen. So I hit one of them and still, completely lifeless on my screen. I down her, and after a long way (about 15 secs of rubberbanding) I hook her. Rinse and repeat twice. After the game they called me a c

  • This is the first time I play a rank reset. And it's one of the worst multiplayer experiences I've ever had (I play computer games since '94). I did 4 matches so far and in every single match the first survivor that gets downed is disconnecting. I started at rank 5. I blame the devs for not having a stricter more punishing disconnect penalty.

  • There was a chest next to a hook, killer pulled someone off trying to get the save so I went in for the save while she had the survivor on her shoulder. Instead of unhooking the game forced me to open the tool chest. Now I'm stuck in the animation, killer gets a free hit and I lose my chance to get the save costing the game when I went down 3 seconds later. Got a clip if you want to see it. I

  • I've been watching dbd for a few years now. Watching streamers and videos but only started playing the game last year in October. I just found out that apperently u can hide behind gens to counter bbq? Does that really work? Is there a trick to it? Is it inconsistant? Is it old news? Does anyone actually do this and does it work?

  • Generally, the area around a hook has been cleared of pallets or is just naturally unsafe because a Survivor was downed there. So its relatively easy to get free hits. Even top tier Survivors can't survive very long in dead zones. However, if a Killer gets hit with Decisive Strike, the five second stun can easily give a good Survivor a head start to make it to safe tiles and areas with unused p

  • How can it be that 60 k people are playing this game but I can find a lobby neither as Killer or Survivor. As Survivor I wait at least a minute or 2 and as Killer I won't even wait because I can't find anything during daytime. It's really weird, during daytime in Europe I can't find a single lobby as Killer but as soon as clock hits 8 p.m I find lobbies almost instantly. What the hell is wrong

  • Disclaimer: this is not a list of killers I see as OP or to strong and I'm not asking for a nerf. This is just a list of killers I don't enjoy versing as a player who plays both sides equally Spirit Legion Ghostface (if they do hit n run only) Deathslinger (sorry that I don't have 0.0001 seconds reaction times I guess) Hag Trapper Pyramidhead Freddy Plague

  • I tried to get into a game as killer for 3 hours, after I gave up, I tried to play survivor, and i'm currently on the 2 hour mark. I'm used to matchmaking being bad, but not this horrendous. Am I alone on this? EDIT: I'm on steam, and the players are currently 72,000

  • Simple said, with 4 man swf it isnt. Since they have comms and literally know if all totems are done or not. But when you play solo or duo, it really is a broken perk. Since you really dont know if all totems got done. Simple solution: make a counter visible for everyone. Sfw already know the number, but now solo players have the same oppurtunity. people complain about gen rush. Might help wi

  • Crossplay will bring lower queue times, due to a higher pool of players. I'm sure this is one of the main reason BHVR does not alert killers to SWF in lobbies. Can we at least have some type of notification now that crossplay will be enables? Or an option to not be put into games with 4 mans? It's very unfun as a killer.

  • Having a generator that regresses at 200% of the normal regression speed is a nice alternative to having to constantly kick generators. The downside is when the hex destroyed within the first few minutes of a match. It's very much high-risk, high-reward. Which do you prefer?

  • *This post will be valid after the update* Well, Billy used to be balanced except for some add ons. But now, no one will play Billy? Why? Because he will have the same strength as Oni and Leatherface, but he will just require more skill. More skill should mean better killer, since you should be rewarded for playing a killer that is hard to play, but now Billy will no longer be good. Meanwhile, s

  • As is right now, it is too easy to tunnel someone out of the game as Pyramid Head, get them into torment then hook them, come back to the hook, down them then cage them and then go to the cage and kill them. I feel like BT and DS should work with cages so that he can’t get away with tunneling as much.

  • Hi guys. I was wondering... More often than not survivors tend to ignore terror radius when it's still faint and the killer is far away. I do the same when i'm survivor, and i learned to evaluate how close the killer is by the heartbeat. Now, i would like to mess with them, taking away their ability to discern how close i am and add some debuff in the way. There's Distressing, which increase

  • There is no way to know which skill he will use. The two skills are the same. This is not mindgame, this is simply looping in luck, or guessing. There is no way to counter this, except that it is too fast and still crosses the wall with an absurd ranged. But what makes it more broken is the fact that you don't know which skill he will use and the cooldown of this is minimal. You can spam a th

  • Add a penalty for being the Obsession to the description of the Decisive Strike. Something like a 5% decrease to all actions if you are the Obsession, so there’s some associated drawback with the perk.

'Blessing' Picking Survivor in that time will trigger skill check for them to escape. After Survivor getting unhooked BOTH status effects active for 30 sec .

  • This is what I've ascertained so far, please post any corrections you might have. A pedestal spawns on the map at the start of the trial. Once a player interacts with a pedestal, or after a certain amount of time passes, that pedestal will disappear and a new pedestal will appear somewhere else on the map. If a survivor escapes with the crown (symbolized by the golden particle effect), they w

  • So... A few hours ago I was playing tuff+tombstone Myers. After the game, I had a look at the chat and one of the survivors called me a hacker. Aparently, killing someone using tombstone is now considered hacking. I have nothing to complain about this, but I think it's funny that some people aren't capable of reading what the killer perks/addons do before calling them a hacker or anything like t

  • I was playing a killer game and when I entered the endgame lobby I saw two survivors using the perk last standing, i'd never heard of it so I looked up the perk on the dbd gamepedia and it said the only way to obtain it is to cheat it in. Is the gamepedia right or is there another way to acquire this perk? Edit: sorry for not blocking out the names I did

  • Method no.1: Take the Clown with ya throw x3 bottles around the unhooked surv (with extra hindered and anti-exhaustion addons) pick up the surv, and receive the hit run after him/her (he/her won't run far away) Possible rework (suggestion number 9,999 but none had "so far") Both killer and surv had a difficult skill check at random length The one that does it first (and does not fail) w

  • In my opinion Billy didn’t need to be nerfed, and neither does Spirit. Billy WAS the most balanced Killer in the game, now he’s just meh. But, I actually enjoy Spirit games. It’s fun trying to figure out where she’s gonna mind game you post-phase. Pleaseeeee, don’t start witch-hunting her. If you have different feelings about both Killers than mine, feel free to post here and we can have a debate

  • God, solo queue is awful. I'm a red rank survivor and my teammates suck so much... They run away and crouch in a corner after unhooking me although the killer is clearly chasing the obsession and they have we'll make it... They bodyblock me at a pallet because they decide to heal a downed survivor from 0 to 100 who is under a pallet with leatherface next to us, he downed me... They waste pallets

  • With all these complains aboout boring killers and how some of their powers are allegedly uninteractive/uncounterable I've wondered what is actually difference between killer's power that is fun to vs and a power that is boring to vs, talking about opinions of general masses. Like for example, spirit is just guessing, deathslinger has not counterplay, huntress has fun/fair power, etc. First off

  • Ranks should give you an extra bloodpoints rewards because as of now,ranks have almost no meaning. Give 1% extra bloodpoints rewards for every rank for example at rank 20 you get 0% extra bloodpoints,at rank 1 you get 20% extra bloodpoints in every category,this would be a way to make ranks somewhat useful,but doubt devs care about suggestion from the community much.

  • As the title says, after being gifted the 444k bloodpoints I exceeded the 1,000,000 and went back down to about 860k, next game I have there's 5 cakes and it takes me above 1,000,000 again, game after that it's 3 cakes + survivor pudding and I am at 1.14 million, is the limit increased or is this a bug?

  • I was survivor rank 2 (3 pips) before the reset and now I'm rank 6 (4 pips) but shouldn't I be rank 5? Not quite sure how they managed that one. Also I was killer rank 4 (1 pip) before reset and now I'm rank 5 (no pips) which is how it should be based on previous resets. It's only 1 pip and doesn't exactly matter but it's weird nonetheless?

  • I haven’t been playing Dbd for long, about 4 to 5 months now. Eventually I started to notice people sending the messages you’d expect like “Camper Trash”, “Tunneler” etc. Then I started to learn more about the game and I started hearing about the “Survivor Entitlement” thing. I still don’t get 100% what the big deal is. Most survivors I go against whine because they didn’t survive which seems nor
