I think you could experiment with having less survivors like anywhere between 4-6 survivors and having some potential buffs like less gens, more hookstates, or faster actions.2 comments 141 views last activity

The scheduling with this update has been pretty messy compared to the usual ones and we're long past the time when we would usually get a dev update, so at this point I just wonder if we will be getting one at all?19 comments 561 views last activity

How come I (1500h) go up against a survivor with 10500 hours? Not only that… He is the "23rd best surv in the world" according to the statistics and the best Ace in the world apparently. I actually am so blown away by how BHVR's sbmm system works… This is unbelievable. And of course i get pooped on since he's spent his childhood playing the game…36 comments 762 views last activity

Attemp unhook its a ######### bottom, a dc without repercusions and the game is a lot better without that mechanic, the only times survivors should be able to do it is if they have a perk like deliverance.84 comments 1,441 views last activity

im having alot of fun! Survivor is alot more better now then the first iteration! 2v8 round 2 is actually a lot better this time around for survivors able to get pallet and flash saves and the insane class ults is a comeback dream Medic ive gotten a 6 man heal, Guide you can pop an entire gen in seconds, Scout rebuilding strong pallets is a life saver!

I've seen plenty of people still wine about the usage of meta perks on both sides. I've also seen people still recommend meta perks (such as adrenaline, deliverance, off the record, etc.) in various builds, but let me put a problem up: Are these perks still meta, or is it just a lingering effect of a long-time dominance over survivors and killers picks? I will try to be as objective as I can be2 comments 131 views last activity

I think my two top survivors to add would be Elvira and Buffy. I feel a tad bit more hope about Elvira after seeing her appearance in the Killer Clowns game. And Buffy really is the ultimate survivor. I think it would also be cool if we could get some legendary skins for her that are other Buffy characters--Willow, Giles, Xander etc. My top killer to add would be Pumpkinhead. I know it's not the23 comments 322 views last activity

I hear you. A lot of Eastern and African regions have no servers to connect to within a sub-100ms range, and the gameplay changes significantly with that amount of latency present (actions and powers are delayed noticeably or behave inconsistently, survivors get hit in more and more ridiculous ways). Originally when rolling out dedicated servers, BHVR said that in regions where there aren't any5 comments 111 views last activity

Ive been noticing far more killers slugging lately, especially after bhvr buffed the hook timers (by 10 seconds I believe). Wonder if this was intentional. Does bvhr want more slugs? Doesnt seem healthy...65 comments 1,625 views last activity

I went back to look at the developer updates and also took a look at the PTB patch notes August 2nd was the developer update which stated scratchmark visibility was going to be improved (https://forums.bhvr.com/dead-by-daylight/kb/articles/464-developer-update-august-2024) August 6th the 8.2.0 PTB patch notes dropped and outside of Dracula's power there's zero mention of scratchmarks, and the s2 comments 161 views last activity

Seriously I mean how in the hell did behavior not fix the lobby wait time for killers in the 2v8 mode I mean it's ridiculous and to make matters worse all those quests can't even be done on the killer side and if you struggle playing survivor oh well52 comments 1,401 views last activity

I know topic is old but I dont care anymore. Took a long break from dbd and my first match today was against an cheating swf. Bhvr really needs to tackle this topic. I know it doesn't make money but increasing quality of gameplay will make them more money in longterm because more people will be around to buy dlc's or skins and rift passes. Playerbase is in decline and for good reason. I don11 comments 202 views last activity

I said earlier in another thread this is something that should be talked about more on the forums, so I figured a post about it would be appropriate. This is also something of a mini-essay on effectively spreading pressure, since the two concepts are pretty heavily linked. So then. There is a tooltip in this game, shown in the loading screens, that I think does incalculable damage to people's ab49 comments 1,871 views last activity

yo, I hope this mode will never kill 1v4 and become permanent. That would be a disaster because the Q times are a problem. Since I'm not going to put myself through that again, I'm going to take a break (once the mode is live) until the spook is over because I don't like this arcade mode.

Are these a real thing? I only ask because I had a terrible game in 2v8 where we were all slugged and they basically camped the cages. After I was put out of my misery the one player had the employee badge. So if this is the case employees slugging for the win, that's bad.5 comments 161 views last activity

Mainly performance and frame rate issues. Will this be patched any time soon?0 comments 31 views last activity

So my last 5 matches in 1v4 have had at least one new player in them. One of them was even entirely new players. They have no unique perks or prestiges I theorise that with the new free weekend and 2v8 causing a lack of survivors new players are getting put into lobbies they shouldn't be. This is obviously not a good experience, i worry this is going to turn a lot of people away. Anyone else16 comments 381 views last activity

I’m like go do a gen or something there shouldn’t be more than one person going for the uncage it’s a waste of time. For example in one of my matches I was playing survivor and I went for the un cage save and I noticed 2 other people are following me I’m just like go do a gen.12 comments 181 views last activity

I now earn more BP just playing killer in 1v4 using a pudding/cake, absolutely zero reason to play 2v8 now if it's to farm bloodpoints. The fact that 250% wasn't even a static minimum is hilarious15 comments 551 views last activity

When Bill released he had two perks that helped with two of the biggest issues in old dbd which were slugging and tunneling (and still are), if Bill didn't release it could have drastically affected the amount of survivor players and newer players because there would have been no counter to slugging and tunneling. And yes I'm aware of DS but back then you'd have to spend money for it so you'd pre15 comments 621 views last activity

Since Freddy is getting reworked yet again what should we expect this time? Now I don't expect a complete rework like the first time but what I personally would like to see are is a possible 2nd attempt of the original power (Freddy can't attack awake people has to manually put people to sleep etc to be more specific) but with micro sleep and him actually having abilities to use.

Like idk everything just is super unimmersive and unrealistic like ik this is a game about an entity taking people into different realms but the a lot of the locations are based on real places/movies set in the real world. Like why is everything in haddonfield so GIGANTIC and massive? Why is badham still using old house assets from 2017 that just look like android vs iphone versions of the hous11 comments 181 views last activity

Haddonfield has been notoriously known for being incredibly survivor sided. og haddonfield was one of the worst designed maps we’ve ever seen and the first rework wasn’t that much better either. Going from god buildings with balanced landing to god buildings with double windows it was almost inevitable that bhvr would nerf this map again. But this most recent rework I think they went a little too9 comments 832 views last activity

I am propably a little late, but since blight got nerfed and his hug tech was removed, he feels ######### to play. He is not weak. Not at all. Still one of the strongest killers in the game, but he just feels awful. His hitbox is #########, the collision in the game in general is also ######### and the fact that i cant even use lethal rush, when i am too close to an object has denied me so many d0 comments 61 views last activity

Like Rocky Spirit and bite the Bullet , how does it relate to Leon's character? Perks descriptions describe Leon focusing on targets that slip away, well I don't remember Leon focusing on a target that slipped away. and Bite the bullet says that pain hurts you just as much as anyone else, but you prefer that others don't know that, this is literally something I've never seen Leon do. and Intera10 comments 312 views last activity

The hits are so wonky. It can't be my connection cause I don't lag while i'm playing DbD or any other game. I am also not lagging when it happens but I still get hit and you can clearly see the hit has not connected. Same with vaults, sometimes I fall so far from the window it's actually funny.

Hey guys, I just had a round against the Demogorgon. Now I'm not sure if it was a bug or if he was buffed. When he put a survivor in the death status, he simply created his portal under the survivor and was able to pull him through his hole to the other portal and hang him in the basement, for example. When he did that 5 times, he was invisible. So is that a bug, cheater or was that normal?5 comments 111 views last activity

What builds do you all plan on running with him now? I know Lethal is gonna be really good on him now since he gets fast stalk from far away. Not with Tombstone just base Myers. If anyone on here has played with him on the PTB what will you be running based off how he feels now.4 comments 81 views last activity

Camping and Tunneling Are Necessary for Killers to Win High-level survivors complete generators so efficiently that killers often resort to camping or tunneling to regain control of the game. While criticized as "unfun" tactics, these strategies are sometimes the only way killers can compete against well-coordinated teams.
