Hello everybody, I am studying psychology in Berlin and am currently writing my final thesis, the subject being Dead by Daylight. I aim to understand whether - and to which degree - certain personality factors (such as extraversion, and agreeableness), gender and the tendency to show altruistic behaviour influence a player's role preference; namely, killer or survivor, as well as the choice of c52 comments 961 views last activity

For the longest time, I've not really cared about it when facing the perk as killer. I normally run Trapper, Plague, and Huntress, so most everybody can see/hear me by the time it kicks in. Lately, however, I've picked up Pig. Actually enjoying my time with her, and have had a lot of fun learning. Except, now, I've noticed how unholy Spine Chill is. Seems like two survivors minimum are running i4 comments 381 views last activity

I am red rank survivor. When I play solo queue my teammates are typically green ranks or lower. My killer is also lower. Why am I being paired with them? Then I play swf with two other red rank friends. Our random is a red rank. Then our killer is rank 20 with no perks, addons, nothing. Why are they going against us? I stopped playing killer for awhile waiting for the map updates. I got reset b21 comments 401 views last activity

I want to try and find a way to put motion blur on dead by daylight, I don't know if that, in any way, gives me an unfair advantage but I really like playing The Forest with motion blur because it gives it a little edge to realism. Is this a bannable offense if I put motion blur on my game?4 comments 621 views last activity

At red ranks, Killers rarely tunnel when there's an obsession and if they do tunnel, they slug. The only real way to get a Killer to pick up Decisive is to jump in a locker. But Head On lets you stun the Killer from a locker multiple times. Therefore its a better perk at high level. Case closed9 comments 141 views last activity

Let’s start with progression. The bloodmarket is so good, you can buy what you want without having to efficiently spend to get perks and you have a better reason to get purple and red items/addons allowing you to use those more often. Perks are even better, you play the character to level them up giving you experience with those perks and the need to kind of start from the bottom adding another30 comments 4,201 views last activity

Not every swf is toxic or entitled. But I just went up against a group that tried to bully me. They started out in the queue with 2 flashlights last second switched to 4. This was no problem fore cause I run lightborn with mad grit . During the match they where being toxic going for quick unhooks right in front of me, t bagging at pallets and after jumping though windows . So I messaged them sayi7 comments 101 views last activity

I was playing Freddy on The Game, and it went normally until I saw Nea and Steve body blocked Quentin after unhooking him. At the end of the game they propped their body in a way that I wasn't able to pick them up. Suffice to say that the end game chat was also not pretty. I know this is not the channel to report but i tried emailing them and it said the email wasn't right (support.deadbydaylight2 comments 21 views last activity

That's not sarcasm either, genuinely wondering. So this first one. I know David King has that perk where you can pick yourself up upon recovery, but what perk is she using with it to make it soooo fast? I was refilling real fast since I had her dying, and in that time she pulled full recovery and bolted. Like, my own fault I won't repeat my mistake, but wondering for when I do play survivor wha6 comments 111 views last activity

Hi, I have a quick question! I posted an original killer concept I wrote, and my friend illustrated, and it got removed. No idea why, I don't believe it violates any rules. I posted the concept in feedbacks and suggestions. Maybe that's it. But still not sure why nobody could just suggest I change it to that rather than take it down without warning?

This is for both survivors and killers. Please provide the option to try out newly unlocked cosmetics on to characters that are also locked since you never get to know how it actually looks like on the them. An upside to this is that it would also help people get more motivated to unlock/buy the character thanks to the new items they got.3 comments 71 views last activity

For the People is an anti-slugging perk that creates an Obsession so the Killer has to respect Decisive Strike. We’re currently moving towards a slugging meta and Decisive Strike is falling out of favor in Red Ranks because it gets respected so much that it rarely gets used. Personally, I think that For the People is lowkey meta and over time it will only grow in popularity11 comments 91 views last activity

Are survivors supposed to see dead man's switch active icon ? I remember on a dev stream they were talking about it not sure if they were saying it was a bug or intended. Anyone remembers or knows ?5 comments 61 views last activity

Most killers manage to sustain 2k-4k games yet find something to complain about because the game is so unfair to them! ive also been recording my games, perks and etc, and out of the 20 that I played so far, only two games have been 0k-1k. whenever I click on threads, it’s literally killer mains showing off their games where they stomped on the team but when you try to point out that th37 comments 431 views last activity

I'm not playing mobile because redoing the grind just feels like a waste of time. I want to play with the perks I have on PC. So no, I'm not going to be playing mobile. If progress from mobile also actually transferred over to PC I'd actually be incentivized to play it.2 comments 31 views last activity

I have no idea what this perk is supposed to do in it's current state. I guess it's supposed to be an anti-gen tap perk, except you can hit even when you get off the gen. The skill check will follow you. What? Are survivors ######### psychic?8 comments 131 views last activity

By the title you may be thinking oh look a killer main. Wrong im coming on behalf of a surv game I had. It was a plague who was horrible I looped her til the last gen and got rid of her corrupt twice. I looped corrupt and then stunned the second and she only got me from bloodlust and then basement hooked me and I got saved and then she blocked me in the basement and she tunneled me.

Not sure if this IS actually possible, but just throwing an idea out of there for all the uncanny business going on in Dead By Daylight. Bloodpoints seem to be a very valued aspect for gameplay - A lot of people revolve around such. Since we're able to reward bloodpoints for certain actions, would it be possible to reduce (AKA subtract) bloodpoints for bad behaviour or whatever you wanna call16 comments 121 views last activity

I just played the PTB and personally feel like toolboxes are useless as of this new update because I couldn't tell if there was a difference at all and the speed seemed so little that it wouldn't even make a difference...Also once you deplete your charges you are stuck with the item and can't exchange it for items in toolboxes or anything?27 comments 3,721 views last activity

PS4 player here.... tonight I’ve noticed that my game is incredibly buggy. I am playing SWF and me and my mate were killed and the last person was downed, but killed was unable to pick them up and they were crawling extremely fast, like flying across the map. Game ended due to end game collapse. Game 2, three of us escaped and my friend was being chased by wraith, my friend got hit and was downed0 comments 21 views last activity

This is killers ranked by how well they have to be played to get any profit from the match. IT IS NOT RANKED BY THEIR POWER.

Hex: Ruin / BBQ / Nurse's calling / (your preference) This is a tough build, when my team gets wrecked, 90% of the time, its some variation above. Thoughts, opinions? Put that build on Doctor or Clown and remove all stealth from the game. It's usually these kinds of matches I find to be short, frustrating and not fun. It must be fun to play though because it's pretty common. With stealth gone,2 comments 41 views last activity

People of the fog: Good afternoon, I am looking my game and is not the one I bought some months ago, actually Freddy and the Doctor are really different about what you offered me at the beginning when you sold me this game. I am also looking there is a perk that i was using (Hex: Ruin) it's not the same one when I payed you the game and basically I gave you my money due to I like all those prod10 comments 131 views last activity

Should a Rank 19 be in a game where everybody is at rank 2-1? I know people want to play with their friends but they should at least complete the tutorial and get to Rank 15 with a full load out at least. They usually tend to throw the game away because they usually don’t know what to do. I have gotten games where I am a Rank 1 survivor and the rest of team is a Rank 18,20 and 2.

If you're a smart killer with good mobility (aka the Spirit, the Hillbilly, etc) and you kill some survivors before the hatch spawns and you want to get a 4k, you'd let survivors fix gens until it spawns, find it and then kill the rest of the team. Unless survivors have a key, they don't have a chance to escape in this scenario. If they refuse to fix gens, a killer may just wait until they fix ge49 comments 591 views last activity

What do you think about them, do you think they are fine? Both of them can ruin my fun so fking hard. They require 0 skill to use and change how the entire game is played. On the last q&a they did they mentioned they are not working on changing them rn and i was so pissed like how the fk can u let them in game in their current state but change the insta med kits (it s great that they were cha5 comments 41 views last activity

Doesn't it seem like a good idea to add some more killer filler perks? Since there are more survivors than killers, so, ultimately, there are more survivor perks than killers. And since we will most definitely not see two killers in one expansion (like steve and nancy as survivors), there is a low chance that without filler perks there will always be less killer perks than survivors. Not sure if0 comments 11 views last activity

I just dc'ed from a game, but my internet was never down for a second. It was a clear server problem of the game. And then I get a dc punishment for that? come on, really embarrassing this server stability and dc punishment. Remove dc punishment already or fix server issues first.3 comments 61 views last activity

i was using BBQ on nearly every killer build, but after ranking up for a while i got the feeling that many survs just counter it by going into lockers, fake run away or hide their aura behind gens (but then you can see a little glimpse sometimes). I can never be sure if they're around hook or just hiding. The BP bonus is nice but i would sacrifice it, if there is a better information perk. I was11 comments 231 views last activity

It would be really great if players can make their own maps, or in-game custom clothing, etc. I was just wondering if this is possible for devs to make (obv. it is, but from logical and technical way). Greetings to the DBD team. Thanks in advance!1 comments 91 views last activity

Ok, so not a balance issue or a survivor complaint or anything.... ...but are some killer noises just way too damn much? Sound is such an important part of the game, and yet if you want to hear certain absurdly faint noises, you have to have your sound turned up so loud that other noises are utterly overwhelming. Just got Plague to try out, and holy hell that Corrupt Purge whispering sound is0 comments 22 views last activity

I was thinking about what new killers they could add into the game when I remembered about some old urban legends such as Slender man and Jeff the killer and I was wondering if anyone else thought that they might add in killers like them.

With a lot of killers coming out with dual powers I feel like trapper is far overdue for a huge buff. His traps are nice so keep those. Make him start with multiple traps and remove the terrible mechanic of having to walk around the map to find and pick up traps. I feel like he should get a variety of traps in his arsenal. Maybe noise traps and different booby traps. I feel like if an injured sur16 comments 151 views last activity

Before I start, I already know everyone's gonna say, "it'll split the player base!" Have you guys ever thought it might expand the player base. Go ask CoD. The game was dead, warzone came out for free, next thing I know my little brother is asking for the full priced game for his birthday. Now to my Idea.
