It's once more re tagging stuff, stuff i don't find very halloween, killers dont get a very good job with stuff, this whole voice stuff doing yet again I have not played it due to the bring stuff, the boring cosmetics, maybe try something actual Halloween like.1 comments 51 views last activity

Why is unbreakable not a comspicous action that disables decisive strike? As a killer who knows that a player has decisive strike, i have to wait 60 seconds. This enables them to use unbreakable before the timer runs out AND take a hit again....4 comments 281 views last activity

hello, i had the idea of a possible future killer in dbd having a power that was connected to their terror radius, i think it would be a unique thing to be added, because from what i've seen a very large handful of killers just have the same power with a different coat of paint on it, along side the idea i also came up with a concept of a killer but i haven't gotten the time to fully think on it3 comments 41 views last activity

Hello everyone, I know that we have a Bug Report section, but its nearly a week already, so I just want to test the waters here. Since Monday I can't play DBD due to EAC glitching and crashing my PCs explorer. When I start DBD, after the splashwindow showcasing Soma and Dracula from the new rift finishs loading, nothing happens. I have waited for up to 15min. During this time the PC works mostl15 comments 3,663 views last activity

Freddy is getting a rework early next year. Rework can be a blurry word in what it means. After looking at prior reworks behavior has done I can only predict 2 different options that they will do. Killers like Trickster, clown, and billy, legion, and bubba all had massive number changes plus new things to there base kit in their reworks. Some examples being- Billy- Overheat and overdrive Clo8 comments 131 views last activity

I played survivor and we all got pretty much steam rolled. Me and 1 other survivor left. Then I noticed my team mate was cheating flying around the map whenever the killer got close to him. This went on for about 20min. Killer let me go and I kept leading him to the cheating survivor but he would just fly off like flash on speed. Eventually I body blocked him and the killer downed him. He spent 44 comments 122 views last activity

I truly didn't expect this to happen without a bloodpoint incentive, but here we are. I tracked 22 matches, watching the game play out if I died early. There were 4 where players escaped out the gates, so technically 18 matches with relevant data. 10 of them had the killer slug the second last survivor. In 6 of those matches, they slugged for over 30 seconds in order to wait for the mori to becom37 comments 1,361 views last activity

This comes after not receiving a response from a mod after asking for their advice on this matter, so I thought I should throw this out into the community. On various social medias, there are people who clearly advertise they are cheating (using wall hacks, speed hacks, etc.). I don't believe the platforms they use have any duty to do anything about it, because it's not their game. However, if t2 comments 111 views last activity

Watched a few videos thats the most effective at getting condemn and its spamming tvs before anyone has the chance to retrieve one, mori someone and rinse and repeat Honestly its really strong with sadokas already present hit and run playstyle, it has some scale ceiling as theres usually a order to follow but really boring.

It's always hooks or free escapes. Survivor mains demanded killer mains give last survivor hatch for so long. Take the Mori. It won't hurt my feelings. I don't play to escape. I'm doing time challenges. I just want to see a cool Mori. Trapper and Wraith, not you.11 comments 331 views last activity

Why do we have Ultra Rares that encourage a killer to not use their power or use it as little as possible? IRI Head is almost exclusively used for insane zoning because you only get one. It’s boring to go against as survivor because there is no chase. And feels awful to use because you have to reload every 5 seconds if you are actually trying to throw past 16 meters. And don’t even get me starte55 comments 681 views last activity

You're basically playing a different Killer! This playstyle is obviously way weaker then to just switch to whatever abillity suits the current situations, but I really enjoy just running around as the Wolf just puncing on people playing pac-man as I chase! I sometimes wish the wolf was it's own Killer haha.29 comments 753 views last activity

For the past couple of months, I've been noticing an increased number of bot / scripting doctor killers on Asia servers. Has anyone else experienced this? It's seriously frustrating because… The games aren't fun since the killer moves around like one of those "my first robot" projects which you do in primary school, periodically moving forwards, backwards, to the sides, and periodically casting1 comments 91 views last activity

Yes i know sable and lara bnp perks are bad and yes i know they arent even meta or op before we start. Bnp in general is unhealthy and needs reworked or remove cause theres nothing killer can do. They cant remove bnp nor they cant know if a bnp is active. Bnps give 10% permanent gen progression which isnt much but it actually helps alot. Bhvr introduced bnp rework to help survivors with 3 genn38 comments 581 views last activity

If the hatch spawned when two survivors were left, but only one survivor could enter it, do you think this would solve this longstanding "hostage" situation?16 comments 292 views last activity

These perks were buffed a while back to a point they actually became meta with the regression it applied, however now, as seen in this video I will link below, the regression applied is no insignificant that it's practically like tickling the gen with a feather. The reason these perks were nerfed to what they are now, is not because they were too strong as they were, but because this was BEFORE24 comments 701 views last activity

As of recently maps seem to be getting smaller with pallets and vaults either disappearing or being turned into pointless spots where the killer can go around just as easily as if it wasn't there. What is the point of having objects to chase around when they are pointless to use. And before anyone says that you can still loop, not everyone (me included) knows how to or they aren't good at it as i21 comments 583 views last activity

Although the title is a bit clickbait, 100% means: today I played 9 survivor games of which I was one of the last 2 survivors still standing in 3 games. The killer was slugging for the 4k in all these 3 games. I came prepared, with No Mither, We're Gonna Live Forever and Exponential, and still (Also, not really part of the topic, but out of all 9 games, only 1 survivor escaped in total lmao) (43 comments 721 views last activity

The last time a killer came out with an original scourge hook was The onyro in march 2022 thats 2 years and 7 months ago . I like the idea of scourge hooks and I'm no game developer but I've seen some interesting scourge hook concepts that people have made. They made Monstrous Shrine into a scourge hook in June 2022 and hangman's trick july 2023. Its not like hangman trick was any good it is the8 comments 291 views last activity

We've seen a few examples recently of some people creating some very evil posts on the forum (e.g. the ones posting gore, the ones using racial slurs, death threats against the devs, etc.). What can be done to help prevent this in the future?

What is worth using anymore? What if I use COB, OC and eruption together? I just hate how slow gens regress without COB or OC. Feels like an eternity. I just don’t know what to use. They all got nerfed pretty much 🤷🏼♂️6 comments 181 views last activity

A common complaint that I and basically everyone that plays SoloQ survivor has is that you are not so much playing a 4v1, but rather a 1v1v1v1v1, this leads to a lot of frustration, as you have zero idea what your teammates are doing, however one problem with this that I don't see a lot of people talk about is how this effects Emblems.

If you tunnel at 5 gens, camp and slug the entire game and run a 4 gen regression meta build (or some other op BS) you should be punished for it. Bannable even. Nothing more to say.25 comments 452 views last activity

Lobby animations used to fully play when holding an item, they look stiff now compared to old DBD. They also hold the item so far away from their body it looks unnatural. Please bring this back. So many Little details like this have been taken away and they make such a big difference to the atmosphere and aesthetic of the game. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lc7uy-eeyao7 comments 151 views last activity

Maybe I am not remembering correctly, but I feel like the sound settings have changed. Didn't you use to be able to adjust more and now it's grouped into one? The way that the sound settings are currently is a little over stimulating for the neurodivergents like me :(1 comments 21 views last activity

I usually do about a 60/40 maybe 70/30 so I consider myself somewhere in the middle, but if we were gonna go on averages, I would probably be considered a survivor main. I know my own reasoning for what I’m about to ask, but I want to ask the actual killer mains. In matches where things are being chill and everybody is just farming it is very common for the killer to grab their two hooks on e17 comments 311 views last activity

I think it would be fun if DBD had an event called Deception where a killer had the ability to take the form of one of the survivors. Perhaps you could even change between the different ones, so you could pick the most effective time to turn into each survivor. As an added bonus, turning into that survivor also let's you see the survivor HUD, so you know as much as survivors do about what's going7 comments 101 views last activity

I've seen this in multiple games now. The survivor can drop the flas bang right next to me but I never hear it. Why is that? Has it changed? Because I know for a fact it had a sound in the past and not hearing that is like the most annoying thing ever.6 comments 241 views last activity

What's your opinion on a Survivor killing themselves on hook? Do you understand it when a group runs into a sweaty Huntress who slugs everyone or a Knight who three gens from the start? Or do you think people should tough it out no matter what?69 comments 1,352 views last activity

To preface this I want to say that this is just my opinion. I will not intend on being rude or sassy to anyone so I ask the same for everyone else here. I am just trying to voice my frustrations and have a conversation and I hope that people will respect that.

Here lately, there has, supposedly, been a "slugging epidemic". This post isn't about the morality of slugging, or of any major mechanics changes to slugging, but of a simple solution to make it feel just a little less bad. My idea is that, when you're bleeding out on the ground, you should get bloodpoints. Probably for the braveness category, i don't know, but for something. I'm not sure how m51 comments 811 views last activity

I love the survivors and killers, and the “perks” they can spend bloodpoints on, aswell as the map choices but everything else is confusing, or just overall not needed The game tutorial was 20 minutes and it was really confusing, i attempted to show my friends it but they literally gave up 5 minutes in because it was just way to much for a board game, the rules,explanation and prop pieces seemed4 comments 883 views last activity

Did I just have a miserable game against him? Yes. However, the question is: when is it not miserable?

I know some of them are mean't to be memey, but most of them don't make any sense, or just give the killer itself more of a disadvantage, not really complaining just genuinely confused lol, I'm not even asking for Iri Addons to be like OP or give massive buffs, but I guess add more to the killers power?5 comments 91 views last activity

Several years ago, the devs stance on camping was that it was a strategy in the game and could be a valid tactic. I don't know if they ever said something about tunnelling. Both of those strategies got base kit nerfs/solutions applied to them in the last few years, like camping meter and base kit endurance after unhook, but neither of those are among th13 comments 2,664 views last activity

Listen, when you have one side of the game with more people, odds are you're going to have more people who DC, kill themselves on hook and/or bodyblock and willingly throw the game. This happens at any skill level because like I said, most survivors get salty that they got slammed and decide to DC or kill themselves on hook. And then you have the trolls.
