Just played a match that I won because a survivor disconnected and turned into a bot. The bot then went into the void and stayed inside of it for the entire game, and when I followed it in, it had AFK crows. Anyone else notice similar? I didn't think the bots could even enter the void.0 comments 41 views last activity

It seems to me that no matter they buff Hex: Crowd Control, players still find it weak. FYI, this perk has been buffed 4 times without any nerfs so far.9 comments 302 views last activity

I'm a survivor-main, only raison I'm not a survivor-only is the rewards and tomes. Am I being a spoiled brat to think it's "sad" being forced into a role I just really don't like? Or do some survs/killers feel the same way?15 comments 371 views last activity

I recently purchased DBD on my Switch, (2 days ago as of posting) and after linking my Nintendo account, it says I don't own the game. I have launched the game multiple times, refreshed my library, and unlinked and relinked. I don't know if I should delete and redownload or something?

Hangman's Trick needs a rework. BHVR tried to rework it twice with a very RNG dependent idea that relies on survivors standing near hooks which isnt really a great design. Hangman's trick should act as a good support perk for other scourage hooks imo to reduce the RNG dependency of pain res, gift of pain, etc. Here's my idea: Scourage Hook: Hangman's trick 4 Hooks become scourage hooks.

I remember old sadako’s ring drawing use to be really broken because i remember sadako mains even myself use to slug using knockout and ring drawing addon to force survivors to get condemned. Also the other addon which is irridecent videotape where each time she hits a survivor every 3 powered tv that is turned off will automatically turn on after they are hit and sadako mains use to spam the tp38 comments 563 views last activity

The Dead by Daylight wiki states that it also reduces the recharge rate of The Cannibal's Chainsaw and that it just isn't mentioned in the Add-on's description, is this true?! If yes, why isn't this important info mentioned in the add-ons description? Why even does this downside exists if it 's real???2 comments 51 views last activity

Last night's stream was pretty chill, we hit our next milestone goal after 5 near 6 months of streaming had some good highlight worthy moments but then I come across this person. This person and the rest of his SwF decided to bring in a Badham map offering packed loaded with Instaheals and BNP's as they do (During an Event BTW) Huntress is one of my 3 m10 comments 752 views last activity

I never run these perks, except for Kindred but this is so much fun! Dead Hard is addicting! I've messed it up and embarrassed myself quite a few times 😆 When I'm unhooked, the timer in the OTR window begins counting down. However, if I do a conspicuous action, it still remains lit in the perk window and still counts down. Which effect of OTR am I c7 comments 131 views last activity

I've taken all I can playing survivor for event. What are some fun builds for killer that yall enjoy? I don't care to get kills, I just want to get Tome challenges done, get BP, and have fun. Currently I'm trying out Wolf Only Drac while running Trail of Torment, Brutal Strength, Fire Up, and Enduring with the add ons to recover Pounce faster by 50% and increase the range of detecting Scent Orbs24 comments 302 views last activity

This game has gotten so beyond unplayable for survivor. The changes the devs make are the wrong ones and they are not addressing the big issues. The event is so beyond killer-sided it's ridiculous (even big killer mains have said it in their videos). Killers are so beyond sweaty because they hate their perks getting nerfed (actual excuses I have read in other posts in the forums) and then hav27 comments 731 views last activity

Can we make it so survivors can pick themselves up inside the event realm, the void realm or whatever? I got slugged in there and I couldn't even crawl out the gate. Could we make it so survivors can teleport out of that area while they're on the ground?2 comments 91 views last activity

I've been running reassurance since release, I love that perk since it punishes a boring playstyle and encourages killers to leave the hook to go for chases. I just played a game where a Bubba was only camping basement, far enough for anti-camp not to trigger but close enough to down you before getting downstairs. Luckily my soloq team was smart enough to ignore the camped guy and pump gens in or22 comments 751 views last activity

Why are the event killers so sweaty? It's supposed to be a fun event, but a very large majority of them play like it is a regular match and their lives depend on getting a 4k, rather than everyone having fun. You can still get a 4k and make the match fun. You don't have to slug the 3rd to get the 4th. Have better faith in your skills to hunt and find that last survivor. So what if they get t40 comments 1,061 views last activity

I really love Castlevania and this new chapter is all I've wanted… but currently its all i cant play. I have no issue playing any killer on any map with good performance and quality however when i play Dracula, i ALWAYS crash, ESPECIALLY with wolf form or teleporting as bats. It is to my assumption the fur on the wolf and all the smokey effects and fire and such just crash my game. I really want3 comments 231 views last activity

Anyone else loading in to a lot of matches lately with Doctors (I assume they're bots) that just stay roughly in the same spot the whole match and hit the air and use their power over and over again? I've had a huge uptick in those for the past month of two. And it's almost always Doctor.12 comments 521 views last activity

Is patrolling gens that hard? With hook camping/tunneling being at a game breaking high do they really need more aura reading? Get hooked, aura read, get unhooked, aura read, break a gen, aura read, pallet drop, aura read, lose chase, aura read, gens finishes, aura read. Why do killers need so many different perks that do the same thing? Get some damn variety. Anyone remember when killers actuall62 comments 1,383 views last activity

I think this was a great addition. It used to be that survivors expected the killer to give the last survivor hatch, now the last survivor can give the killer a Mori.37 comments 1,241 views last activity

I just want to talk about the cutest thing that I probably ever experienced in the game. A couple of days ago I had a streak of REALLY tough games, it was basically SWF death squad into SWF seal team 6 into SWF bully squad into SWF death squad again and I was feeling really unhinged. The next game MMR fluked completely or threw me a bone, I don't know, but the survivors were no prepared for all9 comments 91 views last activity

He should get the same setback Legion used to have for no reason. After hitting someone he should get a brief CD on on all his forms. I recently picked up dracula and addons aside it's incredibly dumb that he can hit someone then go into batform and catch up to them almost immediately as well as ignore most vaults/pallets. Personally I think Bat form is the only one that needs a nerf but I un0 comments 31 views last activity

Last time this was attempted they made 2 Shiny pins basekit AND left shiny pin as an add on. According to Bhvrs official stats, after the buffs she got recently her kill rates has actually gone down from 58% in 2022 to 56% this year. No surprise there. Also could we see kill rate and pick rate stats for killer add ons in the future? I have a sneaking suspicion that Shiny Pin is propping up her39 comments 625 views last activity

So first of all, this will be a lot to read. Thank you in advance if you take the time. The problem has long existed that tunneling is one, if not the, strongest tactic for winning a match in DBD. As a killer, if you want to win consistently, you are almost forced to turn a 4vs1 into a 3vs1 as quickly as possible, it usually takes little effort and is effective.17 comments 391 views last activity

I don’t think the sweating will last longer than a few days or a week. The 4k already gives you a bit of a bonus and people will get bored of seeing moris all the time. So just wait a bit, and if you can’t stand it find another game for a bit. Or just play killer and mess around to even it out.4 comments 71 views last activity

No one has complained about the Inner Focus and killers have many counter plays to this perk such as the blindness effect or the Undetectable effect. As for the other perk, honestly I don't know why they are contradictory. They want to solve the problem and at the same time they don't want to solve the problem.13 comments 521 views last activity

I wanna see if this is just a me thing or not real quick before saying it's a bug or not. I notice at times when I'm snapping out of it after full insanity, sometimes the bar will flash like my mouse isn't holding down M1. I've noticed this for a few patches now and thought perhaps my mouse was going out, but then I tested my mouse with a separate program and it does hold a constant M1 when h11 comments 321 views last activity

I am a onryo main and I always have to hit and run which is pretty annoying considering some of the areas of the maps I face their are certain tiles that are too large where it’s impossible to catch survivors considering they are really good at doubling back and fake window vaulting it’s pretty frustrating for me and also some of the jungle jims are pretty hard to chase survivors as well.

Now I would start the discussion by saying how the skins for deathslinger rifles are not calibrated , but everyone has already said that, so instead I want to go through how the quality of the skins suffers because of this.

I find myself scrolling through YouTube shorts more than I'd like to admit, and there's plenty of DBD ones sprinkled in there. I keep seeing the same exact survivor play over...and over... and over again. Does anyone find jumping into a locker with DS, head on and a flashbang to be some kind of 500 IQ play? It makes up a ridiculous amount of clips.12 comments 192 views last activity

Nicolas Cage is one of dbds most powerful survivors. There's no way this man is getting a flat buff. Scene Partner isn't popular but it has a dedicated fan base who swears by it. Buffing it with Eyes of Belmont sounds like a disaster. Sooo it has to be a nerf..but I'm lost as to what could change without killing the love and soul that went into Nic?

The purpose of this is to give each side an idea of the mentality as there seems to be a worsening division and growth in angry sentiment. Explain why you play the way you do, why you react to playstyles the way you do, and where you think this community is as a whole. ill go first. I started playing survivor after getting bored of killer after about 4k hours. As killer I play very forgiving.60 comments 1,591 views last activity

Could we get a reminder about our Tome Challenges during a match?

In a last week i see more killers combine this perks, but why? Isnt they counter each other, with forced penance you cant heal and sloppy need to make survivor heal slower. If they cant heal they just be on gens and mangled and hemmorage from sloppy became waste.3 comments 121 views last activity

I do not get how solo survivors 3 gen every game. Even P100 survivors seem to not know how to do the gens properly for some reason. How can you have thousands of hours and still not know how to play this game? Every game on RPD everyone does all the gens around the middle instead of doing the gens in the middle 1st and then call killer op.

So a lot of Killers cannot read the Auras while using their powers. Such as Spirit, Knight, Twins, Singularity, Dracula Bat Form Xeno in tunnels. And I wonder if Nurse could be added to this list. Now Predator and Zanshin getting nerfed wasn't just because of her but she is probably Gate keeping a bunch of other perks from being better.47 comments 801 views last activity
