  • Just wanted to ask if anyone knows who reads off the memories in the Tomes. I like his voice and the life he puts into the text when speaking. This would probably be something only the devs know, but I'd appreciate an answer.

  • I have seen too many discussions on this forum about DS, to remove DS, that survivors are "blessed from god" for DS, ecc. ecc. ecc.. The truth ? Ive seen from my ALT Acc (Purple Rank) and from my standard Account (Red Rank) that most of the killers tunneling at PC are just.... bad. I give you some examples. Today, rank PURPLE im paired vs a rank 9 Killer. He was tunneling me for 4 gen, 4 gen..

  • Hey guys, im looking for a nice Freddy Perk build with perks that kinda fit to each other. My actual thought would be: BBQ (on every killer) Pop Goes the weasel Brutal strenght Overcharge So its kind of an "gen kick build" I dont play anything like that on other killers and would like to ask if pop and Overcharge work together. Any cool Ideas not everybody else plays? let me know :)

  • Matchmaking is broken. We all know this. That is why this question is directed almost exclusively to Killers who are at the top of the ranking system. What further changes would you like to see to the game and why? I mean this in a positive manner when I say that as someone who plays Killer/Survivor equally these days I cannot imagine what else a Killer could want. Gen speeds were made longer

  • Playing last night I ran into a clown that shutdown chases and loops with bottles, then knocked me and camped me in basement, by repeatedly throwing bottles at the stairs. I died on first hook.He ended the match with a 4k because of NOED. Guy later messaged me talking like he owned us with the worst killer, while I’m sitting there listening to this guys paragraph long rants, I’m thinking how is h

  • What's up with this? Why do totems have skill checks now? I'm joking. BHVR, please don't hate me but when one of my skill checks got stuck on my screen, I couldn't stop myself from taking the picture because it was perfect, lol. At least the skill checks that get stuck don't interfere with other gameplay. Thank you for doing such a good job

  • The post game rift/challenge overlay hides the post-game chat and feels awkward in its placement. It’s also animated which means we cannot collapse it quickly. It would be really nice if the overlay was triggered by mouse hover or click instead. For me atleast, I’d rather ’gg’ my teammates before I go into the details of the rift. There’s no urgency to know if I unlocked a new tier or not.

  • I am trying out every killer to see who I enjoy playing as and am actually kinda good. I want to learn a few tips or tricks for every killer. If you main a killer please leave a tip to help me improve. At the moment i am trying out Plauge. The current build I run is Corrupt Intervention, Thanataphobia, Pop Goes The Weasel, Infectious Fright. If you know something better lemme know

  • Me and two other friends decided to mess around in custom game the killer hits down the survivor and picks him up and puts him down (mostly to toy with him) and thats when that happend he was stuck under the map we tried everything to replicate it and everything to get him out but in the end we needed to leave the match to get him out, has anyone experien

  • If you could play every game with a certain build on Survivor, which perks would you run? Doesn't have to be a tryhard meta perk build, just something that works for you and you enjoy games playing. For me, it's Open Handed, Bond, Inner Strength and Lithe. I use it regularly at Rank 1 and win games. It just feels right to me even if its not textbook or standard.

  • I think that it's very easy to gen rush and that making the gen repair slower would not be too balanced, so maybe a 6th gen should have to be done? Maybe there could be a token based perk with a 2 token max and you could unrepair a gen but it keeps 75/50/25 of its repair progress.

  • I’ve been playing Dead By Daylight regularly for 8 months and noticed since like February that people keep holding the exit switch down until all 3 lights come on but will not finish opening the door. I do everything that I can in each match. I’ll pull someone off the hook twice, do at least two engines , open one chest, distract the killer for chase points, hit the killer with the pallet, but wh

  • So I know that everyone is saying that the Engine.ini is disabled now so you can't change anything in there. OK. Fine by me. Only thing I had in there was for smoothed frame rate and to turn Anti-Aliasing off because it harms my FPS. But what I really wanna know is that if the Engine.ini is disabled... Is the GameUserSettings.ini disabled as well? Because I desperately need to turn vsync off at t

  • Everything is working with my internet box. I'll get into rounds, and in the middle of it, whether being killer or survivor, the game will randomly kick me back to the title screen and say that I need a network to play the game. But my network is fine, all of my other online games work fine, even my Psnow works fine. And every time I get a penalty. I lose my items, my bloodpoints, none of my dail

  • ...my solution to have more players purchase cosmetics and characters. Hello, I'm BigBrainMegMain and I've found a solution to ease the grind for survivors who are starting, veterans and for players who are completely deterred from buying and/or playing a new character because they start with nothing. I'll be using myself as an example and if you'd like to use yourself, if this fits your descri

  • Hi new player here, I just got into playing killer and I thought going around generator to generator was fine, since most of the time one was ever working on them when I got there. And even when I hooked people I would walk away into the map for a good 15-30 seconds before checking back to see if anyone was going over there. This has made basically every match end with me being called a camper. S

  • What bad perks would you like to see buffed and how? I personally think M.Shrine would be cool if it gave a permanent debuff to anyone hooked in basement for the rest of the game And Unrelenting should be 50% instead of 30% and i also think it could have a very small STBFL effect like 7% or something

  • Something happened, I was about to hit Feng and the game just freezed. After 30 seconds the game forcefully made me to disconnect and then being banned for 5 minutes. Dear developers, could you make please that if the game crashes/freezes/other crap happens so I don't get banned for wrong reasons please?

  • I mean secrets..... Let's be real it seems matchmaking isn't being fixed anytime soon and you have new players with 1 perk vsing tier killers and new killers getting stomped as well. In my opinion I think you should completely revamp the shrine of secrets by adding more then 4 perks.... 7 days rotation just to look at some complete junk perks. You have new comers getting stomped so bad matc

  • Curious what your opinions are! Do you guys think Deathslinger could potentially be more fun and balanced with the following adjustments: *Slowed down reel speed *Increased amount of charges to break the chain in return *Just for fun scares, an additional 2 meters to the chain? This would make my stupid brain very satisfied with the numbers of his chain. Something about it being 18 meters fee

  • This is my first discussion, I wanted to suggest 2 things to improve the game. Add in-game statistics for players (check links below): https://dbd.onteh.net.au/#leaderboard https://dennisreep.nl/dbd/ 2. Add an option to remove addons and offerings we don't use. Let me know what do you think about it.

  • For context i have 741 hours on DBD and i play an equal amount of killer and survivor and i want this game to be in a decent state i enjoy its gameplay enough to put so many hours in compared to other games i play but since the mid chapter update the game has felt more clunky than usual. I recently started playing Valorant and Stellaris with friends and i just can't justify bringing myself to pl

  • A good majority of the community know to combat jukes and 360’s you up your sensitivity without it you’re going to struggle. Most of us can agree on this yes? How in gods name is FF stun somehow still balanced in the eyes of the devs?!? Especially for new players that want to play Legion, with the current MM they’ll be put against experienced players. Even if MM wasn’t a problem you’ve got smurf

  • I don't know if this is a bug or not, but it is noticable. As a spirit player flashlights are almost irrelevant to me because they need to wait more in order to blind me, so not only they waste time and charges, but they also waste distance and in some scenarios I get a free hit. Will this be changed? I feel kinda bad :/

  • What if every time you hook a different survivor, the survivor(s) who still have DS active, loses half (or some amount of time) of the timer left on their DS. For example: If survivor A gets hooked and then rescued, but about 20 seconds later, survivor B gets hooked, the 40 seconds that should be left on Survivor A’s decisive strike gets cut in half to 20 seconds. This effect could then be multi

My idea for him is basically his M1 is a basic knife attack, my first idea for his m2 you have to

  • Hello! I have an perk idea for you; Tear me down - each 10 seconds of chase gives you a token. One token grants you 5% progression of recovery bar after you get downed by the killer. You can stack up to 8/9/10 tokens. The perk deactivates once you lose the chase (the killer loses you, not downs you) -------------------- I think that more than 50% would be too good since you can combine the p

  • His abilities are a lot more unique and exciting than most of the other m1 killers (Trapper, Clown, Wraith). Most of the m1 killers only have one ability and I would argue that bear traps, cloaking, and fart clouds are nowhere near as exciting as teleports that can be mindgamed, loop-countering snares, and fake pallets. Is it because Freddy is actually strong compared to the other m1 killers? Or

  • since 2016 the dbd hook system has been extremely flawed and has caused many obvious issues: camping, tunneling, hook bombing/farming etc. newer asymetrical games (including death garden) have beautifully implemented a different altruism system that has had ZERO complaints about and has lead to both more fair and skilled matches. if some are unaware of what those are; essentially when someon

  • It's hard enough being a new player, but explain to me the reasoning behind this kind of a matchmaking setup. I consider myself okay as a level 15 killer using a level 10 Freddy, but the game must think I'm a pro since it decided to pit me against survivors that weren't even double digits and had max perks with ultra-rare add-ons. Almost every killer match is like this for me. No wonder a maj

I can't play with people who try to heal me when I'm freaking broken. I'm for real, they endlessly teabag so I could let them heal me and refuse to fix gen for a good chunk of time.
