Is there ever a chance that will get a morally reprehensible Survivor or at least a survivor that is considered bad or evil in certain contexts. The closest we have to fit an archetype David King who is more of a douchebag with a heart of gold than a bad person. Lorewise the closest to the stereotypical selfish survivor we have is Feng Min however this just is because she's more of a lone wolf7 comments 41 views last activity

Ever since his rework, his kill rate has skyrocketed. Why? Because he's OP. In case you don't know, his power is basically survivors are awake for about 80-90 seconds at the start of the match and then fall asleep. While survivors are asleep they can be interact with dream snares or dream pallets, and also be subjected to debuffs, albeit small ones. He can also use dream projection and teleport t104 comments 2,463 views last activity

The KYF lobbies is a great place to have fun with your friends (contrary to what is said in the name of the mode). But, in my opinion, the game should have more settings on this mode. Some examples: We could play with old versions of killers, perks, etc... this will sound crazy, but I ever loved the old Nightmare. I would love it if I could get a chance to play KYF with the old killer versions2 comments 31 views last activity

Not necessarily as full legendary skins, but have licenced parts for certain original killers. Remember in Rocket League when they had special addition parts affiliated with WWE, Back To The Future and DC etc? I think DBD could potentially do the same. Many people are talking about the possible inclusion of a Five Nights At Freddy chapter. There is however, some opposition to this proposal. May5 comments 31 views last activity

Hey, everyone. I wanted to ask the community what their thoughts are on the topic of grind in DBD. It's no secret that the grind is real in this game, whether it's to get enough shards for a skin you want or leveling up characters for perks and builds. The issue that may come of this is that, as more characters and cosmetics are added into the game, the grind gets more and more unrealistic. Espec55 comments 441 views last activity

Do you think pre/post game chat will become available to console players in order to communicate with PC players, or players of a differing console when crossplay becomes live between each of the platforms? I would personally like it, especially since it can currently be minimized on PC3 comments 111 views last activity

If you ask me, this is one of the strangest things about the community. We don't have anything special but explicit horniness towards the killers. I mean, what else do we have? "Boop the snoot"??? "Oh, you play a game where the shirtless Myers is nearly the most common request?" Will we have anything else? Anything that will make others go "oh, you're a DBD player!".

Does anyone else think his survivor chase music should be heard by the killer during a chase instead of the proximity theme he hears now? Right now he hears the terror radius theme as a chase music, which is inconsistent with the rest of the "new" killers, and demo's chase music that survivors hear is great and would be much more enjoyable to hear from the killer's pov.1 comments 31 views last activity

Most part of community & me too, usually buy all chapter & characters DLC. But currently due a "sad events" - l'm can't and turned my look on the Shrine to probably atleast get new teachable perks. Via maths, l'm concluded that is very unreliable source for do so (if not impossible). Currently game have 14 licensed characters which posses in whole 42 perks. Full pool is 126 teachable per2 comments 71 views last activity

I don't get why everyone gets on here and cries about how unenjoyable the game is. Whenever I play killer I get a 3k to 4k almost every game without using any perks that considered op. It happens alot more often now though since rank 15s-20s are somehow grinding their way into red ranks due to the inconsistent ranking system. I have good games as survivor too but I'm not as consistent as survivor10 comments 211 views last activity

Just finished the challenges on third level and want to summarize again. I would love to see some of your experiences to see if you have more or less problems with the challenges. Also when you can't remember the details entirely, only when you think parts of what I list reflect your experiences or are massively different. I'm a bit astonished that it is already done, because it felt more grindy7 comments 101 views last activity

Another 0.24 seconds, literally, and I wouldn't have been hit with DS. I get it wouldn't have changed the game much at all, but just last week I was hit with like a 59s DS after hooking someone over the complete opposite side of the map and then Adrenaline kicked in for him. I hate when survivors say "just don't tunnel bro!" when I probably get hit like 5-6 times a week by DS when I don't tunnel.38 comments 481 views last activity

*Reminder, this is NOT to complain! It's purely for discussion from personal experience! I played exactly 5 games just now to finish my Rift quests and versed (chronologically) [I was rank 3 and I fell down to 4]: 1x Nurse 2x Pigs 1x Ghostface 1x Doctor Needless to say, those were some very tiresome games lol.

Thought about this today, obviously not for the first time, but I am strongly considering replacing Kindred with Bond. Is this stupid because of one killer? Maybe I’ll just do it for the first few days when he’s played more and then see how often I come across him later. I don’t run BT or DS but for those of you that do are you going to drop those, drop them for a week when he’s all the rage,13 comments 131 views last activity

Let me set the scene: Dwight is dead, I've got two Claudettes on hooks, and a Nea MIA. Nea saves Claud 1, I come back and purposely choose to down Nea instead of Claud 1, and hook her. Claud 1 saves Claud 2. I run into Claud 1 and pursue, she saves Nea in front of me and I down Claud 1. I pick her up... And DS happens. I genuinely don't have the slightest idea what the "right" play was her16 comments 161 views last activity

I loved this game when I first played it. Hours and hours. I defended both survivors side and killers side. But I can’t play this anymore. Cheats, toxicity, SWF, bad match making.... a killer can’t do anything anymore. Besides running in a circle because you actually found someone to chase, since they all know where you are, chasing that one person who knows all the tricks, while the other th13 comments 191 views last activity

If you play well as a group (or the killer plays badly) and finish last gen with someone on a hook and no current chases going on, that hook is getting camped. There is no other option for the killer but a total forfeit. Take the less than complete win and move on. If you get over altruistic and your rescue goes badly and someone else gets hooked, they're also getting camped. Again, there is no o13 comments 161 views last activity

I feel kinda conflicted right now: my friend (Rank 1) and I (Rank 2) queued for survivor and the killer invited us to the party. It was his first game of DBD ever and he had no idea how anything worked so we decided to show him the ropes. The other two teammates wouldn't join the party and were powering through the gens, so we gave them up to buy enough time to show him the ropes. 1 was sacrifice0 comments 21 views last activity

Glad to see my favorite perk fixed, but a certain "fix" has made the perk unpredictable to survivor POV "Fixed an issue that caused the perk Sole Survivor to only light up when the Survivor's aura is being hidden." So, the perk constantly stays lit now right? Now that means the survivor doesn't know when it's actually preventing aura reading by the killer. You have to see it in your perk4 comments 231 views last activity

So people brought up how it is easy to dodge pyramid heads M2 because of his red light so I realized wouldn't beast of prey actually be pretty damn good on him? Beast of pray activates after only 15 seconds in a chase and hides your glow so wouldn't that be his best perk besides save the best for last?

Being a new player I'm trying to farm as many blood points as possible, but lately barbecue and chili has been pretty ineffective since I find myself getting matched with more and more red rank survivors. Is it a bit easier to get bloodpoints with WGLF, or should I just stick it out with BBQ and count my lucky stars if I can get more than 1 hook with these red rank swf?6 comments 81 views last activity

400 bp is the maximum amount of points a Survivor gets if they manage to wiggle free while a Killer is taking them to the hook. The screenshot below should not exist, if a Survivor reaches 100% wiggle progression earning 400bp they should not be able to be hooked - yet it exists: I conclude that the wiggle mechanic defaults to favour the Killer in the i9 comments 161 views last activity

Sick of the invincible swf 4-man groups that I just have to suffer through teabagging, light clicking, pointing, and general BM. Primetime EST is just a cesspool of this. I want to play the game but my time is too valuable to just sit through the bullying. On a related note, does anyone know of a game like DbD where the horror monster villain doesn't need a thousand hours and pro level skill jus32 comments 311 views last activity

Gas cans spawn around the map in random locations. the survivors see the aura of the cans when within a 10 meter radius. Survivors have to bring 4 gas cans to each generator to power it. The killers can interfere in this process by downing any survivor carrying a gas can. Once a survivor carrying a gas can is put into the dying state, the killer can then "kick" the gas can over spilling all the f0 comments 31 views last activity

It would be awesome to see Dead by Daylight dab into some Fairy Tale lore. Make it dark, grusmoe and wicked just like in most of the Grimm tales. Would be legit awesome to see "The Witch" in the game an have her origin backstory be from Hansel and Gretel. She could have the Shack redesigned into the Gingerbread House or something of the sort.

Jack The Ripper: The Cloaked Map: Streets Of London Power: Deadly Fog. When activating Deadly Fog, fog will start to cover the map for 10 seconds, making it harder for the survivors to see. The cooldown time for the ability is 15 seconds. After a 15 second cool down, the power can be used again. Jack has a harder time seeing in the fog but has better si5 comments 121 views last activity

First off, I wanna let you all know that I am by no means a Clown expert. I do play him when I play killer sometimes ( I can't resist Mr. Puddles) but I don't "main" him so feel free to add/discuss any of the suggestions I make. For me, one of the departments that Clown is very lackluster in (which is known by many) is in his map pressuring abilities. Of course outside of his base kit there ar8 comments 81 views last activity

I do realize that his shock needs proper timing and skill. But is it actually that useful? I can see it being effectively used in certain loops but doesn't kinda too situational? You need certain distance, certain location, certain prediction, etc.. I see people putting him in A-tier but does he really deserve being there? As a survivor if you play properly around his power it doesn't seem much10 comments 111 views last activity

Why is their such a lack of variety when it comes to viable high rank killers? Unless you want to get stomped by a gen jockey swf your only choice is spirit or freddy (console btw). Docter works sometimes but he can underperform some of the time. Theres so much potential for some of the killers in this game but they're so underplayed because of how weak they are.35 comments 661 views last activity

First of all i think pig is fine but the rng aspect can cause major frustration for both sides. Just had a game where I got a RBT placed on my head and the last gen popped, it was active on a swamp map.

How about some skill for a new killer, or a killer that already exists, in which he creates a false engine or a false exit door, in which the survivors when they finish fixing this engine explode and they have been exhausted, or a false door that when you open it gives you a state of vulnerability, but the map, or keys indicate that they are false, I thought that this ability could be for the clo6 comments 41 views last activity

If you don't like stories, stop reading now. You've been warned. I was up against a 3-man SWF that played like total noobs.

So, I just got a power hit mid-game since it's storming outside. My neighborhood has wires above ground, so we're prone to power outages during storms. With how long Dead By Daylight matches can take, I can't easily wrap up a game and hop off within a few minutes.

I'm extremely new so it's probably obvious that the Silent Hill trailer convinced me to put down my money for it.

Survivors immediately have access to meta perks with the standard characters. Also, some of the free Survivors have multiple extremely useful perks (Dwight, Meg, Bill, David). Not to mention that some of the universal base perks are amazing as well (Kindred, Spine Chill, We'll Make It, Resilience). You can make a completely top tier meta build on Survivor without ever buying a DLC. Killers have4 comments 72 views last activity

"#########", said the salty rank 1 survivor (I'm rank 11 as killer) because I got 5 DH tokens and "mori'd" him (along with two other survivors and sacrificed the fourth). The fact that it was DH and not an Ebony Memento Mori made no difference, naturally. Here's to the mods, for their work in dealing with these people.
