Since the last patch, have any players been experiencing lag spikes? I’m getting lag spikes when a Killer is near (sometimes making a chase impossible to play around). I’ve never experienced this issue prior to the last patch, and nothing has changed with my set-up. My friends have also been experiencing a similar issue where they only lag when a Killer is nearby. — Fixed —0 comments 41 views last activity

Please, PLEASE don't nerf the patch before it hits console. At least give us a week or two to try things out too man. There's A LOT of threads about how unfair it is that God loops/windows are gone, and about some dead spaces. I've been playing this since it released on ps4. I've been putting up with so much BS being a killer main. ( sWFs,the broken match making,damn near infinite loops because o1 comments 91 views last activity

I sincerely hope that this gets noticed by BHVR, because the issues killers are facing are seriously ridiculous. This is probably going to be a long post, and I don't plan on making a Tl;dr, so buckle up. Does anyone see the issue with Tru3 and Otz making alot of videos along the lines of "TOXIC SWEATY RANK 1 SMURF CRINGE 4 MAN SWF VS DOC"? Doesn't that kinda conflict with the game looking to b33 comments 3,001 views last activity

So, the title says it all. It would be really nice to have a different installment for the PTB separately from the main game. While it is not affecting me that much, to some poeple it is really painful to download ~2gb of files each time they switch between the different variantions. I tried copying the game file and just renaming the folders, it somehow resulted in me having to reinstall the2 comments 31 views last activity

I have around 700 hours in Dead by Daylight, probably 300 hours in Killer and 400 hours in Survivor. I have everyone on Lvl 50 and 5 are Prestige 3. But in all that time i played 3 Killers (and 3 Survivors, but they dont really matter, because they are "just skins") and all of the other Killers are just... existing. I dont play them at all, they are just there and i get Challenges for them. I do1 comments 51 views last activity

What devs consider to be a healthy gameplay? A killer hooks a survivor and he has to pressure gens to prevent other Survivors to finish gens and escape. killers can't facecamp because they'll only get one kill and unpip. That way the game is fun because it opens opportunities to unhook and the game can go on. Also, the first hooked survivor has a chance to safepip or maybe pip. So far, everything13 comments 181 views last activity

Next update will double the current sensitivity options for controller. While this is great, I feel like it won't help as much as people think. It would be of more value to controller players to add an aim acceleration option. Why? Sensitivity is the max speed the camera can move. Aim acceleration is how quickly the aim speed goes from 0 to max turning rate. What I find in most games with both o10 comments 821 views last activity

Any one else have this happen? I'm leveling up bloodwebs and I get a bumped to the main menu and get the lost network connection error. When I go back not only are the things I have bought on the current bloodweb have been reset, I also loose the BD that I paid for them. This has happened to me twice. Also I know this is not my network because I was still connected to PSN. @Peanits Is there0 comments 21 views last activity

What do you like more: a simple power or a more complicated power? Examples of simple powers: Trapper: traps that you can set up to cath survivors Huntress: just a hatchets to throw into survivors Examples of complicated powers: Demoboy: you have portals to travel around the map and the shred to hit survivors Doctor: you have static blast, shock therapy and madness tiers2 comments 31 views last activity

I was playing Deathslinger on Autoheaven (yellow bus version). The game started, and I found this Yui. I chased her for a bit, hit her once. Then shot her and reeled her towards me. As I was about to hit her, she disconnected. 10 seconds later, I hear the the hatch noise (when It's opened). Keep in mind, there was still 4 gens left and 3 people alive. So the hatch wasn't even supposed to be here.1 comments 71 views last activity

As the title says, has the game gotten boring for anyone else? I was very addicted to it and had a ton of fun playing it a while ago, now I don't have any fun and it and always get bored playing it. I enjoy talking about the game and watching videos about it though. The only reason why I still play it every once in a while is because of Legion.

I swear their lunges out of using their powers used to be way, way better. Spirit and Nurse are so sluggish feeling without their power, and even the powerhouse Wraith feels the same. With Wraith, you just find a moderately strong window like the killer shack window, and you'll make his power useless. With Nurse and Spirit, it seems like you need just a little more distance and you would have hit4 comments 131 views last activity

the new patch will make "looping" pretty much not a thing anymore. the fact that now every map will have in the future just 5 pallets and will be very small i think its time to play immersed again. the time is over with playing aggresiv as survivor! first we make sure we have a claudette with a dark outfit we call them "blendettes" this is very important for hiding in bushes, bushes are known a21 comments 581 views last activity

Dead by daylight released on Switch on September 24th and with it came two notable absences, the Nightmare on Elm Street chapter and Leatherface. People were expecting that their perks would be base perks on Switch, like console players had Bill's perks before he released on console. Instead however, they told us that these perks would be available on the shrine and that they would try to bring a8 comments 171 views last activity

How come searching a Jigsaw Box gives you the option of hitting great skill checks but sealing a Portal doesn't? (I don't play either of these killers but a video I watched today just made me wonder. Seems unfair to the Pig.)4 comments 71 views last activity

I have a P3 wraith that I've played off and on over the last couple years. With P3 bloodwebs and BB&C, you can (barring an extremely unlucky run of bloodwebs) run the purple windstorm/purple 12 meter aura reading combo pretty much permanently. I'm terrible overall, but with that combo, I can reasonably hold my own up to rank 10 (and still perform semi-respectably up until about rank 5).14 comments 341 views last activity

He absolutely needed a rework from his old self, but why did they give so much to him? Let's have a look: 1) He has a mechanic that puts survivors to sleep without any effort by him. This mechanic can disorientate survivors and allow for Freddy to use his anti-loop tools without even hitting them. 2) He has anti-loop powers that can shut down loops very easily. 3) He has a powerful mobility82 comments 1,891 views last activity

This is just a fun guide/categorization of what I consider to be various amounts of killer pressure and what their use is. I'm not exactly a pro at this game, but I do consider myself a veteran, as I've played this game since the Beta release and off and on since then. I will categorize the various activities that apply pressure in Low Pressure, Moderate Pressure, and High Pressure. Its import1 comments 81 views last activity

Legion's entire kit is designed around being a hit and run Killer. In normal gameplay, Survivors will stay injured for long amounts of time and only heal when it starts to get a little desperate because they know how easy it is to get hit with Frenzy. Basically, you invest in hits early game and are rewarded with quick chases later on. Thanatophobia all the sudden creates an incentive to heal,7 comments 491 views last activity

It seems like no matter what you do gens will still be done way faster than the killer can catch survivors.It takes less than a minute for survivors to complete a generator almost all the time especially if they spawn next to one which happens very often and usually together.In that amount of time a killer can down 1 survivor at best if you're lucky and in order to kill a survivor you need to hoo2 comments 61 views last activity

Heaven forbid a Killer tries for a 4K, amirite? I mean dude, you already got the 3, so just let the last guy go! How selfish to actually try to get all 4! Just stop trying after 3, you selfish player, you! Better yet, stop after 2! I mean, you got the 2K! Going for 3 is just RUDE and Killers are only meant to get 2, so stop trying at 2! Or at 1!

Seriously just make it completely random. Will shorten queue times and I think the element of the unknown will be interesting. Rank is abstract anyhow – an excellent player who has not played for 3 months will have dropped right down. What’s the worst that could happen? In the worst scenario a noob killer gets trounced by a group of top-tier survivors? – that happens anyhow.27 comments 423 views last activity

Developers, thanks for adding these interesting animations for killers when they break the wall. Freddy, Oni and HillBilly look especially cool. But I would like to ask: will you make these animations unique in the future? Well i.e. Bubba, for example, will break the wall not with his foot, but with a chainsaw. A Clown will break the wall with his shoulder, etc. https://www.youtu2 comments 1,101 views last activity

Honestly, I think most of the issues and pressure on the Killers would be near absent if we didn't have such boosted efficiency from the number of survivors. Otz did a video where the first gen popped within 27 seconds of the match starting which is nearly or exactly the fastest amount of time a team can do a generator. Honestly? I think 4 survivors on a gen should add up only to 44 seconds, i9 comments 151 views last activity

So for those in the know (which seems to be everyone now) theres a god loop on the new map. Since it hasn’t been fixed in this update its currently the only one in the game...I think. Now this map is brand new and yet somehow this was overlooked. So the question if a new map comes out with an exploit window, will it be addressed on whatever ptb is on? Or will the map hit live and the loop be a2 comments 121 views last activity

Anyone that knows the map knows that the main building could be kinda busted. There's a lot of safe pallets there and there are 2 windows that could fit this description: But they said the only thing they changed about the map was reducing the amount of pallets on the map (2 less safe pallets in the main building), so I'm kinda curious as to why they did1 comments 41 views last activity

I’m just asking as a confirmation, because it does say it gets rid of grunts of pain so wouldn’t that also apply to being knocked? Because sometimes it feels like I’m silent when crawling and other times I’m grunting normally. also side note it is tier 3 and I notice sometimes my character is still grunting in pain while injured and running5 comments 151 views last activity

Just noticed that they updated Bill's hair on the PTB to make him look more like he does in Left 4 Dead, which is great. However, I also really like his old look.

Soooooo ehm how long it will take when matchmaking will be balanced. Because I can say I am not a great killer so why am I matched with only rank 1 survivors and not rank 9 survivors like me?
