Player opinions are in nearly every forum post on here but we never see opinions from Developers/Moderators. Any response from them is usually to clarify some information in a post or to moderate the post telling everyone to stay on topic. So I ask this to any devs/mods that read this post. As a player of DBD share your opinions on the following questions. Do you play survivor or killer more?0 comments 31 views last activity

Now you guys are doing it in 2v8 as well, and you wonder why your queue times are so long. No one wants to play with you just so we can sit around until you get a mori.42 comments 841 views last activity

The news outlets are going ham on the PS5 Pro and its issues it's having in video games, and reading further on social media websites, people are pointing their fingers at the developers, saying they're to blame for the lack of support for the PS5 Pro. Pro patched games seem to work perfectly fine. https://gamerant.com/star-wars-jedi-survivor-ps5-pro-performance/8 comments 591 views last activity

Lately I've been noticing a drastic uptick in unintended disconnects, while loading and the like. Personally it's happened to me twice, this happening on top of an intentional two disconnects (one due to a cheater holding me hostage) has granted me with a 15 minute DC penalty when 3/4 Disconnects I had no choice in the matter. Many of my games i've been loading in have had someone leave during t1 comments 31 views last activity

I VPN'd into all 8 cities with a DBD server, and they all have the same % bonus for 1v4 and 2v8 (50% and 150% respectively atm). Is this % just global for all players with no regional differences?5 comments 202 views last activity

Guess I’ll always be playing the gen class to try and make gens fly as fast as possible since that’s the best way to counter a one tap killer who has a teammate for extra help. Let’s go for 5 minute matches 😆41 comments 1,932 views last activity

So BHVR just has absolutely ZERO plans to address the waits? Even though the answer to at least starting it would be so incredibly simple. In fact, they've actually decided to make it worse. We're back to splitting incentives with the …"lovely ppl"….who don't want to play in the event? So now there is even LESS Incentive to play survivor on 2v8 and the killer wait should in theory be even LONG39 comments 891 views last activity

By 99ing gens it means you avoid activating the 5% penalty on repairing other gens, allowing your teammates to complete them faster. If the killer shows up, you can simply finish the generator in their face and take the chase. If all survivors use this strategy, there's little the killers can do. I guess it's almost impossible to coordinate in solo queue, but it doesn’t take much effort to under22 comments 981 views last activity

In the past few days of playing 2v8 mode, my friend and I—both experienced killers with thousands of hours in DBD—have been experimenting with different strategies. Despite our skill and fast downs, we noticed something troubling: generators can still fly by too quickly, even when we're playing what we would consider optimally. One discovery stood out: every time we cage a survivor, they receive30 comments 1,132 views last activity

For some reason the developers are tolerant of Hex perks where you have a Hex that can be present once you complete an action or even a Hex that gives another Hex another chance etc. Even with scourge hooks perks they became tolerant and with the introduction of the new scourge hooks perk where once the survivor unhook a survivor that hook becomes a scourge hooks.

Everyone knows that voicechat gives you bonus beyond the game mechs, yet the devs are just using this as a balancing tool to hold good killers with longer gaming time. Like I don't wanna play ultra sweating with 4 flashlights after 8 hours working shift. I just want to select and play some casual games that could be fair for both sides.

Everytime i try to launch DBD on my ps5, I have to relaunch it multiple times before i can enter the game. I have reinstalled DBD, cleared cache and rebuilt my database but I still keep getting error messages. E.g. No network, initialisation error,… When I do get into the game i have to be cautious of spending my bloodpoints because it tends to just kick me out saying “bloodweb error”.

I’ve played a couple Roblox games that run smoothly on my PS5 and PC yet are laggy on mobile. There is one in particular called Dress to Impress that has gained a larger following in the last 7 months and which everyone complains about having excessive lag with on their phones when playing. The devs of that game are teenagers and relatively vacant from mature levels of interaction and profession5 comments 201 views last activity

It's ridiculous how much it affects queue times, as a mostly killer player it's taking almost 10 minutes to find a game whether regular queue or 2v8 To have to deal with this for 2 weeks straight is absurd imo7 comments 261 views last activity

Any other survivors feel the same? 1v4 just seems so tedious and frustrating compared to 2v8. In 2v8 there's constant excitement, and you get much cooler abilities. It also never feels like games are over in the first 2 minutes like in 1v4, you're able to make a comeback as survivor. I just wish the devs would make 2v8 permanent because it's like an upgraded version of the game.30 comments 901 views last activity

in the endgame chat many said that a cheater was playing on Ada and he left the game and the bot continued to cheat, which sounds kinda strange in itself I did not understand what was happening in the game and what they wanted from me, but after reviewing the recording, I realized that the killers could not hit the bot, maybe this is some kind of bug or skill issue idk for some reason i can't a6 comments 121 views last activity

So I noticed in the PTB that the Chase command charts a path that the Dog follows like an indicator. Now The Nurse, Blight, and Twins all have a Brown/Common addon that does this for their power so being Plaid Flannel, Chipped Monocle, and Cat Figurine. Now my question is should these three Add-ons be Basekit but be toggleable or just remain as training wheel Add-ons for the Killers? Should3 comments 121 views last activity

Now that the hug tech is gone, it seems like the same people who called for its nerf are awfully quiet. It goes without saying that crouching on a different elevation shouldn't counter a killer's power. But BHVR sure is taking their sweet time to acknowledge it.44 comments 1,161 views last activity

How is this even remotely possible? 8 Gens to complete with supposed "catch up mechanic" where If the Killers are getting cage stages the Survivors gain 1% gen progression but once completing a gen the Survivors lose 1% gen progression. The Killers were Blight and Wraith who got 10 Cage stages which isn't even half their objective, no kills. We completed 8 gens in 4 minutes 14 seconds, that's n29 comments 733 views last activity

So I just had a survivor stand in front of me for 2 minutes until I died, while I was in the cage. Both killers ignored them, because she was basically helping them. No other survivor could unhook me, because the Meg was blocking the prompt. I know it probably won't happen a lot, since hopefully most killers will be decent enough to down the griefing survivor, but it seems like an oversight that31 comments 702 views last activity

I haven't seen 100% on either side for a while now. Even when my queues are 5 seconds on survivors and a minute or two for killer, the BP bonus stays at 50% max. BHVR did say they were monitoring the BP bonuses a while back with 2v8. Maybe it's even stricter to get a 100% bonus?55 comments 2,382 views last activity

This is as serious as it gets IN this game. I don't think there is a single thing you can do on this game other than hacking that completely ruins the experience the way that this does. Not only does it ruin the match it wastes a half an hour or more of your time.. BHVR should look closely at reports during this event and ANY killer who is AFK during this event is simply BANNED from playing in th6 comments 431 views last activity

I just got an idea about moris in 2v8! I think it's really funny that we get to do them in the mode at all! But wouldn't it be cool if both Killers could be in the mori? A new special mori animation depending on which Killers are in the Trial! I think it would be really cool, but probably time consuming to do due to all Killers that are able to be mixed up and depending on how would this idea be14 comments 161 views last activity

Plz stop. there are too many. As killer and survivor I cant escape the hum. please try the other options. What do you think the huntress pick rate is for 2v8? i feel like shes 80% of my matches7 comments 191 views last activity

I've had this experience several times, and it's starting to feel like more than a coincidence. I can play for hours without issue, then at a key moment in a game, often when the other players were winning, and suddenly the tide turns, I'll get disconnected from the game. I end up with a disconnect penalty. Obviously I don't get any bloodpoints. DBD is the only game where I experience these ran14 comments 681 views last activity

edit: To make this a bit more fun. I've written an app in javascript so anyone can play with the escape rate in a graphical environment. The app is at: http://www.drsoon.xyz — Original post — It shouldn't be so difficult to grasp, but apparently it is. Here are the measured escape rates offered by BHVR: These are averages.56 comments 5,654 views last activity

Overall I guess it's just power wise. Like for legion I would say it would be extremely easy to get chain frenzy hits and downs but over all I also wanna say Doctor but I don't think that would make much sense. Overall I guess what killers couldn't work because their powers might bit a little problematic or might be destroyed with the amount of survivors put into the match.28 comments 441 views last activity

And no, I don't say about high ping, lags and etc. Every event in DBD (Halloween, 2 vs. 8 and more), I see one thing that on event time survivor matchmaking is faster than killer matchmaking. The lowest time in queue as a survivor was 30 seconds, and for killer more than 4 minutes (it can be longer, lol). And when a match is found, 3 of 5 games are not started because of the DC of some player, an1 comments 102 views last activity

Somehow, people still claim that the game is “SURVIVOR sided”which I find absolutely insane. Do we play the same game? First, we need to understand that kill rate does not directly correlate with win rate, but there is still a correlation between the two. We all know this. For example, lets say you're a sweaty Iri-4 Survivor swf- with the best chance26 comments 651 views last activity

It's so bad that Im having to play Webfishing on the side to pass the time and my friend caught a Golden Bass (0.15% chance) before we got into a game. Damn the queue is taking forever. :( Update: Literally 2-seconds, after 30-minutes of waiting, we got into a game, and I got hit with an EAC error that closed my game. Awesome.4 comments 203 views last activity

this perk is going to be a game changer for current scourge hooks and ongoing scourge hook designs. This perk buffs weak SHs while keeping pain res the same. Floods of rage and gift of pain is going to be more consistent since they proc when survivors get unhooked regular hooks. SHs like hangman trick and monstrous are going from unusable to alight. jagged compass is going to be hangman’s trick s4 comments 262 views last activity
