One: Where can I find definitions on terms like "slugging" and such? Searches on this forum turned up nil. Two: I play as Leatherface and have a specific strategy. After hooking someone, I get a reasonable distance away so there is a opportunity for them to be saved, but not so far away that I have no chance in catching them. I use the chainsaw just in case I do catch up to them. The way I se5 comments 101 views last activity

Im curious what game characters people want in the game as either a killer or survivor and if possible how do you think they would play personally i would want i would want Mr X and leon from resident evil i dont know how they would play12 comments 201 views last activity

Is it just me or are other players noticing how bad survivors are even at red rank? It's to the point where I would rather be at green rank because they actually play better. I feel like it is too easy to rank up and that might be the cause of this problem, or maybe I'm just unlucky22 comments 211 views last activity

Dead by daylight wiki says legion is the shortest killer. Is that right? Isn't hag shorter? Does anyone have actual numbers for how tall killers are?3 comments 1,421 views last activity

I think if you instantly heal someone with For the People, it should grant you the Altruism bloodpoints and Benevolent emblem points you would get by healing them normally. As far as I can tell, it doesn't give you either right now. So let's say you heal someone to halfway, getting 250 Altruism bloodpoints and 5 Benevolent emblem points. Using FTP in that scenario should grant you the remaining 20 comments 11 views last activity

So I've started playing nurse on console quite a bit and I've unlocked In the Void She Walks But I looked at From the Void She Kills which requires chaining 3 blinks together and grabbing a survivor, which is impossible, please fix it19 comments 461 views last activity

In normal gameplay, the vast majority of Killers won't tunnel and will switch targets to some extent. When a Killer does start to tunnel, it's usually because the game is going rough and they're getting desperate. That's what Decisive really punishes. In endgame or on the last couple generators, a Killer is more likely to pick up DS. And it feels awful... like a spit in your face because sometim0 comments 31 views last activity

Can everyone try to calm down about the changes on the PTB. Lashing out at eachother isn't going to fix the problems. We are all one community and everyone wants the game to succeed. So instead of throwing insults back and forth and demanding change, do some testing on the PTB with a friend. Once you have some ideas go to the feedback tab for the PTB and type up a well thought out response ba9 comments 231 views last activity

Ok so imagine these scenarios: You’re working a gen alone. Someone...anyone... runs toward your gen. Killer or survivir,no matter. A skill check appears prolly 85% of the time. A survivor crouches or walks toward your gen....nothing. Another gen pops or a survivor gets hooked. Either way there’s a loud notification. A simultaneous skill check occurs with the notification sound prolly 50% of t2 comments 61 views last activity

So with map size changes coming in as well as tile generation changes that are generally killer sided, I know these changes are much needed for the current state of the game. I'm generally a killer biased killer main but I also play survivor alot(killer rank 1, survivor rank 3). I only play solo queue because I don't know what friends are and I think the upcoming changes will put a lot of strain14 comments 82 views last activity

Start game (good luck though) haunted grounds, ruin, thrill of the hunt, devour hope (reason I feel this, ruin is ruin, devour hope can leak into mid game but due to it being able to be broken the speed and exposed are your best bet, but not the point it's used, thrill of the hunt, you know where people are on totems, and haunted grounds will give you the chance to cause hooks and quick wins, to1 comments 22 views last activity

I was going into a game as the wraith and what ended up happening was in game when i would damage a generator or break a pallet i would automatically be put into my cloak and the other survivors said they could still see my red stain also when i would go to uncloak it would just unlock me with no animations or anything instantly also when i would down someone i could not pick them up and at one p0 comments 81 views last activity

every time i've used the bloody party streamers offering so far, it seems that i get really unlucky with the killer, it's like you can spawn in their terror radius or they start lagging when they're chasing you or it's a facecamping freddy or it can be one of those weird p3 trappers that can telekinetically put traps in front of you when they're chasing you just recently i got tunneled by23 comments 2,371 views last activity

I have a more than capable rig so frames aren't a problem, but things like motion blur, anti-aliasing, and effects give me a headache after 30 minutes of playing. There is no good reason that some of these effects shouldn't be changed. I'm not talking about disabling fog or anything for "competitive advantage". Unlocked fps too, 60fps is alot harder to hit skillchecks than 144fps2 comments 41 views last activity

For starters, I main survivor, so I am gonna try my best not to be biased in discussing this. Both stories happened in Red ranks on Xbox so some may feel differently than me. So, let's talk about keys. I did a game with 4 man SWF. Sounds normal right, one other person and I had died, and that other person informed the two in game where hatch was.

So I have been playing with one of these perks for a few months now and when I try to remove them I really feel the lack of info. When I use bond I feel confident without a medkit because I’ll be able to find a teammate. When I run Kindred I know I do not waste time going for saves when someone else is headed there already so I can stay on gen.

I get that killers camping, tunneling or slugging are tryhard strategies, but why would you shame the killer for killing you? Like when someone dcs survivors just seem to except the killer to let them go, every time. Well, they are 3 reasons killers have the right to kill the survivors when someone dcs: 1) It is the dc guy that throws away the fun.

Keep it as it is, but give 25/50/75 extra bloodpoints. or if that seems broken because david already has were gonna live forever, then make it 25/50/75% more bloodpoints in the altruism category (or whatever category makes sense). gaurentee this perfect perk would be less complained about if they did this.4 comments 91 views last activity

@not_Queen @Peanits ANYONE who is linked to BHVR dev team and relevant to this discussion. How on Earth is being matched with 4 man SWF all at rank 1 when I am a rank 9 killer fair. What the ######### is going on with matchmaking??? You surely dont think that this is ok???? Why even have ranks at all if this sort of thing is happening??

(Temporary name!) after 4 successful hits with your basic attack, the next basic attack will put the survivor in the dying state. (Tokens) Missing an attack resets the count (Or lose a token?) hitting an injured survivor doesn’t give a token and doesn’t spend a token, when under 4 tokens. hitting an injured survivor when u have 4 tokens uses the 4 tokens.3 comments 61 views last activity

He is an animal in human form and exists only to amuse us. Survivors have had it too good for too long. No longer can these noobs rely on their infinites, safe pallets, back to back jungle gyms and absurd map sizes. If you are complaining about the recent changes, I have only one advice for you. Get good.69 comments 1,691 views last activity

Haddonfield is the most survivor sided map in the game. Next to badham and the game. The map is too closed in so you can't play as ghostface or freddy. Theres no killer shack so trapper is impossible to play as. It's not dark enough so hag traps are implantable. This turns all killers into m1 killers58 comments 1,341 views last activity

Dont you think that those changes are a bit of an overkill ? I agree that godloops should be nerfed, but from the pictures i see, this is more then just a fair nerf, they are basicly more or less useless especially the Ironworks one. At least make the pallet a bit more safe. Changing the size of some maps is okay, like Red Forrest or Rotten Fields, those are too big, but why would you think i45 comments 1,231 views last activity

Other games have been giving out premium currencies as far as I remember. For example, in Paladins free battle pass route, they basically hand out enough premium currencies for you to unlock the premium battle pass route if you manage to unlock all the rewards on the battle pass. So why can't Dead by Daylight do that too? (Paladins is a free game too). Maybe getting 20 Auric Cells for 7 days con3 comments 771 views last activity

My friends and I are trying to have a viewing party (online we're practicing social distancing) for it for several reasons.

According to the description for White Ward... Burning this offering grants you protection against the loss of your item and add-ons. However, when I tested this, it does not work as stated. If you die with the item, yes you keep the item and add-ons. But if you escape you lose the add-ons. This doesn't make any sense honestly, and I doubt it i2 comments 241 views last activity

I don't mind them delete all moris out of the game. However, we can make the survivors that are already 2 hooked moriable. Of course, it does take away some chances that survivors that can get away (flashlight, pallet, ds, etc.). However, killers are also punished by having less bloodpoints and have lower chance to double pip, which fits the lore since you didn't sacrifice them to the entity.33 comments 411 views last activity

Maybe something like, if the killer remains within terror radius of a survivor on hook for more than 5 seconds he loses 50% speed for x amount of time. Before you say it's not fair, we all know camping is incredibly toxic, and survivors get birds fly over their heads if they camp too long. So why should survivors get penalized for camping, but not killers?63 comments 1,231 views last activity

I know this will be hopefully fixed the next update but right now playing as killer againts a somewhat experience survivor team,you're lucky if you manage to get a 2k.I had a match where 3 gens popped in 2 minutes while I could barely do anything,I was playing wraith with speed addons and still felt slow compared to the survivors gen rush speed.In that amount of time as a killer you are not even0 comments 31 views last activity

This seems poorly thought out and nothing more. For a player who avoids spending additional money on the game this is a huge kick in the butt unless they play Feng, but even someone like me, who plays pretty much everyone would much rather get a cosmetic for someone else. Not to say it just seems really underwhelming for a final reward, but I guess that's off-topic. Is there any particular reaso11 comments 321 views last activity

I'm playing on PS4 by the way. This was so out of the ordinary. During the match, I did not lag backwards even once. There was not even a hint that the match was laggy. I messaged the first guy who disconnected, and he said he was hit from over 20 meters away. https://youtu.be/MkfrfBckUuo If anyone can verify if this was indeed lag or possibly hacking, I'd appreciate it.7 comments 201 views last activity
