  • I‘m a survivor main, but sometimes I like to play killer because it’s more variety. You have to decide which killer you choose cause all of them have their special power. Why the devs don’t release for survivor special abilities, a bit like one of their teachable perks for example? I would like to see something like: Dwight: motivate teammates, they can work in his near 2% faster Meg: can run

  • I don't know what the general consensus on the newer maps is, but I'm personally a fan of more complex structures and additions such as breakable walls. With each release I've become increasingly bored of older maps when I load into a game. Three in particular stand out as having outlived their usefulness. Each of the three default realms has an 'empty' map- one without a distinctive structure (s

  • Everybody is complaining he can avoid DS, BT, etc. This is only if he can get you Tormented in the first place... In most of the gameplay I've watched from the PTB, Survivors simply aren't playing around his trails whatsoever. If you see him leaving a trail at a loop, you can just run to the next loop while he's slowed. He can't circle hooks or gens with his power (the trail gets deleted). So th

  • I've been trying so hard but I play at Rank 1 and it's really hard to get one gen grab let one two for the tome challenge. Spine Chill is extremely common and even if there's a Survivor that doesn't have it their teammates that do will give them the clue to get off the gen. Plus, even if everything is perfect once someone gets gen grabbed the Survivors are paranoid and leave gens super early.

  • Traps could be gained from lockers (if you have empty bags or none held), but in turn delete any non active traps in the map. if all traps in the map are active, or your holding a trap, no trap will be gained. This makes sure he has easier access to his traps at all times without purely just giving him the ability to carry extra and makes them akin to huntress hatchets. it also doesn't allow him

  • If you dont plan on bringing an item to the trial, then grab a brown medkit. I've been using one in all my games, and they are so useful most of the time. Even if you die they only cost 3000 on the bloodweb so you can always get one or two more with few points. Most of your games you are probably going to easily find someone to heal you, but there is always that one moment where your team is

  • For balancing decisions, is it just kills/escapes? Do they look at win statistics for each specific perk? If so, then why are there so many useless perks that don't get buffed?

  • So I heard they wanted to do something like the End game Collapse but for the start of the game. For the sake of keeping it simple I will call it Phase 1, the mid game Phase 2, and EDC will be Phase 3 I would like to see a set up sections for Phase 1. My knee jerk reaction would be something like reduce gen speeds by 20% for the first 60 seconds or until the first survivor enters the dying state

  • So we all know about hate mail and salty individuals but that's not what this thread is about. This thread is for the nice sportsmanlike individuals I've met during my time playing Dbd :) Feel free to post yours as well and for some context I give hatch alot so that should explain all of the Thank You's.

  • So I’ve been largely playing dbd on mobile for about a month now getting to Prestige 1 with Bill and the Doctor which made me want to renew my ps plus subscription to play on console. Should I do or should I just stick to mobile? Also this is from one of the matches I’ve done so far.

  • Maybe like a scarecrow or wendigo type killer. Just been thinking if there was a killer that could use the birds in a different way other then sound and visual warning and outside of spies from the shadows.

  • I've been making console nurse for a bit now, consistently in the lower red ranks (not anywhere near god tier) and it seems that sometimes after a day or two of not playing that I've forgotten all strategy. Usually it takes a game or two of losing badly to remember that I'm being ######### and how to actually play her; this happen to anyone else?

  • Devs can you please pretty please reverse the upgrade progression of this perk it is literally the only Perk in the entire game that gets worse at the higher tier it gets. Normally I wouldn't mind however it is very irritating when I have to constantly see it in my blood web and all I could think to myself is in game stop trying to make discordance Tier 2 happen it's not going to happen

  • Like really...if the killer has one it’s a mori 100%. Make it so survivors can see what mori it is so that matches won’t get cancelled for som1 DC-ing in the loading screen to a YELLOW mori. Even the green one is okay but ebony...thanks no. If I see a mori I have to expect it to be one and task manager out of the game instantly.

  • New Perk Idea: Leap of Faith You gain a burst of energy to make the extra mile. While healthy and sprinting, press E to dive forward, gaining a short burst of speed and diving off the ground. When you land, you have to spend 1 second to recover from the dive. You can dive over vaults and pallets. Causes Exhaustion for 60/50/40 seconds. Cannot be used while exhausted. The idea for the perk is

  • I personally think he will. Deathbound, while not the strongest perk on its own, has great synergy with Nurse's Calling and Iron Maiden. Leaving only a small donut shaped circle with a width of 4 meters where you could heal up without informing the killer. And even though you dont always need to heal to win a match, its not always possible to go without heals. Self-care is essentially #########,

  • I needed a bit of a project in the middle of the corona quarantines so I gathered statistics from 80 solo survivor games I played (PS4 Europe red rank). All the games are after the ruin change and most are after the map balance update. I didn't include mori games or DC's into the stats. In three games I took video capture too early so I only had rank and perk stats for 77 matches. I excluded my p

  • I've played DBD on PS4 for about 2 years, I think, and I downloaded mobile, because why not. But man...the killers on DBD Mobile are some of the most pathetic babies I've ever met. The number of camping killers far out number those on PS4, and I've gotten to Rank 6 Survivor on Mobile (though I really don't know how much rank means on mobile especially). The killers on mobile get so butt hurt when

  • I’ve been 4-5 for about a week now and I’ve realized it’s impossible to pip up. I get four kills basically every match unless the last guy gets hatch, but no progression with my rank. I thought I’d try something that would kill slower so I tried legion and would run across the map with bbq so I wouldn’t get points

  • I don't know if I missed something in the patch notes, and I don't know how long it's been like this. I know it didn't use to be like this. The way they used to work, is they gave bonus bloodpoints in certain categories. However, it was just in-game. It didn't give them to you after the match ended like BBQ did. So even if you brought something (like, 100% more Deviousness bloodpoints) you could

  • Face camping needs to be a bannable offense. Played the same person twice in a row somehow in matchmaking who played leather face. Anyways when this guy would hook you he stood directly in your face reving the chainsaw until the entity took you. Not only is this unsportsmanlike, but then you also get punished and lose rank when the person is obviously just being a immature little troll and there

  • survivors are using program undetectable by EAC to block killers from matching with them why they not getting banned for it? This gives big advantage, they can tell who the killer is before the match starts, and block them if they think they are too good to beat. Slowing down matchmaking times. I don't know what program it is called but i have heard a few use it. Can dev's plz respond or

Everything was great, but the main highlight is the loading tips — they are excellent! 🙂 I haven't played DBD in two months, but I'm pretty sure they don't have these types of loading tips. I believe these types of tips can greatly benefit the base

  • I have 2000 hours in this game and cannot figure out how to counter him whatsoever during his power. Dropping pallets early buys you a mere 5-8 seconds before he dashes and instadowns you. Looping him at medium to large loops is a death sentence. Funnily enough he has trouble demon dashing at small loops where he doesn't even need to use his dash to get regular instadowns. Every other killer incl

  • At Rank 1 if Survivors bring 2+ flashlights, Lightborn automatically gets added in my build. Survivors with tricked out flashlights will go out of their way to get saves and they can't do it, so its a massive slowdown. Basically budget Infectious Fright because they come out of hiding the second you pick someone up. Also, they go down super easily at pallets because they're trying to blind. Yes

  • Doing the Rift challenge for hooking the Obsession 15 times. I think I'm gonna go with Nemesis, Dead Man's Switch, Furtive Chase, and MYC. Not sure about the Killer though- Deathslinger's range could be good, and I could easily get an 8m TR with FC. I also wanna try Plague w/Black Incense, cause no one cleanses in red ranks, or Ghostface w/Security Camera for the same reason. Thoughts?

  • I was just thinking of a new mechanic for keys and was wondering what people thought of this idea. I'm open to constructive feedback on the idea. Firstly keys would become offerings under a new name and keys as of now would just be used for aura reading. The new way keys offerings would work is the following. The hatch is physically spawned in to the trial as soon as the match begins. The hatc

Meg, who is running Bond, runs down there, and starts pointing at me behind the wall. Billy follows, kills me, and lets meg have the hatch. If you know the whereabouts of this meg, go to megsucks.com, or call 1-800-the meg army must stop.com Note:

  • Does anyone just feel that DBD just hates them, due to how unlucky they are with RNG. Whenever I play survivor I rarely get the strongest tile RNG spawn, I rarely get the party bus. Often I load into the game and the map hasn't spawned any jungle gyms, only T and L walls and pallet gyms. I get randoms using self care and urban evasion. However, whenever I play killer I always seem to get plac

She camped everybody that she hooked but I saved all of them and than looped her until I lose her (she wasn't the best). One gen left, Bill was on the hook (second stage), I was injured, other two survivors were healthy and doing separate gens. I begged both of them for being healed. Nobody healed me, they were too

  • With all of the controversy around SWF, maybe it's better to embrace communication during matches and then balance the game around it. With quick messages between teammates, such as "focus doing gens" or "being chased" there would be little difference between SWF and a group of 4 randoms playing together. It's worth discussing as I don't know other solutions other than give bonuses to people play

  • So it says remain within 10 meters for 60 seconds not getting caught? I thought that meant through the course of the trial remain near the killer somehow for a minute even in broken up chunks of time is that wrong? Does being in a locker count? Does running behind him while he chases someone else count? Do you have to not get downed at all? Do you have to escape?

  • I don't think there are many fans of it and it makes the already hard ability that much harder to land when you have to guesstimate the sudden jump in sensitivity as you're going for it. I've heard there's a sensitivity change or bug on the PTB but I didn't see anything about it can we get clarity?
