And I say that as a killer main btw. My reasons : PERKS 1vs4 : survivors can chose the strongest perks and combine them. 2vs8 : survivors have to make a choice between different sets of perks. They cannot cover all of their weaknesses. COMPOSITION AS SURVIVOR 1vs4 : you just need to find 3 people to make a full SWF stack. Even with 1 friend (duo) you have a guarantee they are going to co26 comments 721 views last activity

I took notes on all my 2v8 matches today, and I'm not liking the results. Playing survivor only (queue times are too brutal for me to try killer), either medic or guide. Game 1: Blight + Billy. Yamaoka. 8K, 5 gens left. Miserable game. Killers raced around the map and racked constant downs, were always zooming over to cages to harass them and instadown the healer as well as the uncaged person60 comments 2,234 views last activity

Everyone was like add more killers to 2v8 so survivor is more interesting. This would actually worsen queues. People said that they got bored from facing the same killers, but during the first week of 2v8 when it was still fresh and people weren't bored yet, killer queues were the worst. This means that even in the best case scenario where 2v8 is completely fresh, killer queues are still atroc8 comments 341 views last activity

Played afew games as Wraith since that was what I used most LAST time and couldn't help but notice what felt like a delay after uncloak before you can swing. Is anyone else noticing this? It kinda removes Wraith's super lunge.27 comments 671 views last activity

My god it's bad enough already that 2v8 Killer queues are on average 15 mins (Fixed btw says BHVR) but seriously what is with the amount of useless Killer players who are about as useful as a concrete parachute? It is becoming stupidly consistent where I am getting between 10-15 hook stages per game while Killer teammates I'm being put with barely even get 3. The game just ends up feeling like4 comments 181 views last activity

In-depth detail explanation below. So sick of this, I'm sick of having to deal with a penalty all because either my teammates don't do anything all game so the killer just always targets me for actually trying to do gens because no one else is working on one or the killer just somehow acts like I'm obsession(when I'm clearly not & rarely ever am) and want to tunnel me all game and the only r57 comments 1,462 views last activity

In the previous version of 2v8, Escapists were the favorite class of SWF loopers, as they could give each other Sprint Bursts on command, and I often saw them swooping in to clutch their friends out of bad positions and extend chases unreasonably. I just witnessed something very broken in my latest match, where a Medic ran up to an injured Medic in chase, took a hit for them, and then they both10 comments 321 views last activity

Are the wait times better than last time? I noticed only 150% to 250% BP incentive for Survivors opposed to the 400% last time. How long do you wait in a 2v8 Killer Queue this time?14 comments 1,151 views last activity

The incentives yesterday were 50% on killer and 350% on survivor. They soon dropped the incentive for killer, which is fine and makes sense, but they also dropped the bonus on survivor to 250%. I just want the bonus on survivor to go back up, i was getting like 100k a game as survivor which totally feels worth it but now it's like 60-80k. It seems like killer queues are even worse than bef1 comments 121 views last activity

This room on the 1st floor to left when you enter the front door spawns nothing in it and honestly seems pointless. They could add a pallet or make that window next to the chair a vault. Of course it now goes nowhere since they removed the house.7 comments 121 views last activity

It's really dumb for pips to not be included in the 2nd version. Why? because the extra BP we get from this mode is basically void because we don't get rank reset rewards later on if we stay on this mode. Even if it had to be simplified to like….escape get a pip. Get a few kills get a pip.3 comments 101 views last activity

I've seen a few posts recently where people started telling fun stories about things that happened in their games. A couple threads about happy events where killers and survivors bonded, a more recent one called Campfire Stories or something similar. I think it could be fun to have a subforum specifically for sharing experiences that are interesting, or heart-warming, or fun, etc. It might encou0 comments 31 views last activity

1v4 currently gives 150% survivor bonus, with 1 100% bp offering I get more per hour making 2v8 redundant. Why was the bonus lowered from 350% to 250% shortly after release? Killers are having a miserable time trying to find games and there's not much incentive to play survivor.6 comments 321 views last activity

I'm on xbox and when I tried to change my personal xbox name to my twitch name I couldn't due to character limits. I've been trying to grow on twitch and can't get far since when I play DBD one of the main games I stream people can't find me and know I'm streaming.

For those unfamiliar, Sony has announced PS5 Pro, a new mid-gen upgrade that launches in November. I'm curious if Dead by Daylight will be getting a PS5 Pro upgrade, and if so, what those enhancements will be. I know the unfortunate history regarding PS4 Pro and Xbox One X; the developers announced support for those hardware upgrades, but it never materialized.

I just had 3 Survivors in a single match using Lightweight, it is so good! I have a terrible time not losing Survivors who run it but there's no way to counter it and I thought there was. I thought there was a Wraith perk that made scratch marks appear closer together and easier to track, but it's just for blood pools?8 comments 562 views last activity

Im personally hyped for new 2v8 the classes buffs sound amazing we get ULTS basically Medic class is my preference and i cant wait to mass heal groups, Scout sounds awesome to rebuild pallets shack is gonna be a fav spot to rebuild. Comeback mechanic will help us slightly although could use some number buffs could raise those to 2% to 3% (was 1%) My future wish is that they add Smokebombs from29 comments 614 views last activity

Why is the War Hammer Titan skin for Spirit disabled in the 2v8 game mode? Is this a particle effect issue with the skin? I assume it isn't a license related issue because I can run Yui's AoT skin in 2v8 with no issues. I'm only asking because I would very much like to use the skin I paid $15+ dollars for or have an explanation as to why I cannot use it. This is another one of those things where9 comments 1,001 views last activity

when you spear a survivor and you're reeling them, and your teammate across the map injures a different survivor, my chain breaks for no reason. i understand its there for preventing 2 taps i guess, but that not fair, the teammate killer is nowhere near in range, needs to be fixed. its an oversight.9 comments 1,092 views last activity

3rd iteration 2v8 should introduce new Boon and Hex classes to help with the uselessness of dull totems Boon Class gives Survivors the ability to bless a totem with increased boon effect range and the following effects Buffed, Dark theory, Exponetional and Shadow step for an ULT when activated have faster Blessed speed and also old Circle of healing is added to the effects.

If you down someone at endgame and they're deep in the map, why would you cage them and risk them spawning right next to a gate with survivors waiting to save them? I've seen a lot of killers just slugging after the gens are all done and I can't really blame them, as it's FAR better at securing kills, and if the survivor isn't on death hook, they can't pick themselves up.1 comments 91 views last activity

Escapist no longer has personal sprint burst and scout no longer reveals the killer's radius to the whole team when in LOS. These were the most played 2 classes and the main reasons people chose those classes. I thought devs would want to make survivor more appealing to play after queue times were so long for killers last time.8 comments 381 views last activity

2v8 I have no problems with the new way of hanging but for the love of God Nerfen the speed of the generators is absurdly fast, in all my games I have to slug or tunnel to death because the gens pay no attention to anything else because they punish the killers for hock literally every time you hang a survi everyone gains repair speed10 comments 424 views last activity

I've played the game since it was first released and fell in love with the concept. I took a long hiatus from it to "play something else for a while" and saw a community build around it. It made me feel happy inside. I finally decided to come back and, while I'm admittedly lost with all the new terms and perks and strategies, I it's been nothing but enjoyable to me.

maybe it’s just me, but it’s really throwing me off when trying to run away when I’m hearing terror radiuses for killers that aren’t even in the match. I just had a match with deathslinger and blight and the deathslinger came towards our gen with trappers terror radius. Then another time I kept hearing bubbas terror radius for blight.

So trying out the new 2v8 edition, and had a match against Slinger and Huntress. At the end result screen it changed Slinger's name to Stranger Eddie. His actual name is Caleb, isn't it? Is this an oversight or is Slinger rocking a new moniker these days? (I have hide names on for everyone)2 comments 411 views last activity

I and I’m sure other people would really like to see the kill rates per the most used add ons perk killer. For example Blight may have a 58% kill rate but when he is using Compound 33 is it still at 58%? I’m not sure if that’s information they have access too but it would be awesome to see.3 comments 61 views last activity

Since they were not hooking for a while, gen speed was really bad, plus people don't realize they can pick themselves up yet And I noticed the Spirit stopped slugging but then I see it was a bot, don't know when they disconnected but that explains everything2 comments 111 views last activity

Personally, I'm liking the Blight/Slinger combo. The bigger maps/player count make Blight feel a bit more balanced and slinger being able to lock down someone for a couple of seconds to get a rush in feels great when it works. Makes it tense to go against too.5 comments 101 views last activity

I Just noticed last match my BOON totem of healing has been nerfed so badly it's a flopping gag perk now. It doesn't stack with med kits? It disables them. OH I'M SORRY!
