  • The Shape as you may or may not know was released a little over three years ago (October 25, 2016). Since then, we have received new DLC characters, perks, and environments that have changed the base game. Below are some ideas that I believe would enhance gameplay of The Shape in Dead by Daylight and provide classic, horror scenarios akin to the Halloween franchise. OF COURSE, NOT ALL THESE IDEAS

  • It only hurt low rank survivors or survivors that couldn’t hit skillchecks well. You devs need to revert ruin back to the way it was originally (affecting skill checks but other slowdown perks should not apply while ruin is active e.g pop,corrupt,surveillance,discordance,etc) old ruin was perfectly balanced and old ruin wasn’t a problem as as survivors reached red ranks and practiced in kyf they

  • Why the ######### can't I DC when I've had enough of the same guy for a day? I have days where the same guy shows up over and over with the same build that just ruins the fun of the game and it's just aggrovating, who else thinks dc ban shouldn't take effect if it's the same guy from a previous dc?

  • I feel like as the more hours I spend play the game the more I see it's potential and behavior's lack of character progression events. Seems like we ever get the chance to actually gain a good amount of bloodpoints needed to level everyone up to prestige 3 and then get all the perks on them as i'm sure a lot of people want that. Here's My Idea: Gain an amount of Bloodpoints for reaching certai

  • Needless to say, this post is about a stupid bug that stops you from playing the game you want. I was trying to close hatch while there was a person left and guess what, my screen and killer kept glitching upwards and cancelling the close action. And seeing as how the grab animations either dont work due to latency or whatever, you cant grab them as they're jumping in either. Which means anyone

  • It's weekend and a lot of killers play the game, why i matched with theese survivors WAY better than my rank? What is happening to the game? I play on pc, a bunch of killers play this game how it is even happened?

  • Is there a particular reason why we can't just see the Killer's ping in Lobby if you're going to keep hit registration on the killer side? At least warn me if I'm about to face someone VPNing from China. At least then I can make peace with the fact that I'll be getting hit across the entire map. smh.

  • Discordance : Any time two or more Survivors are working on the same Generator, that Generator's Aura is highlighted in yellow for 8/10/12 seconds. Surveillance : All regressing Generators will be highlighted by a white Aura. Once regression ends, Generators will be highlighted by a yellow Aura for 8/12/16 seconds. Noises created by Generator Repairs are audible at an additional 8 metres. W

  • Looking at legion and nurse please remove double stun it hurts my eyes, especially when I get pallet stunned then fatigue and my camera slowly jerks up to the right angle. That really makes me feel weird sometimes, please remove it wouldn’t even be a buff, it would be a qol change.

  • I honestly can’t remember if the old ruin before the nerf stopped gen rush for good survivors, I’m an experienced survivor and I can’t remember cause I’ve never used ruin as killer, did old ruin stop gen rush? Or did the new ruin make it easier? Can a KILLER main tell me.

  • If you only play one side of the game your opinion should not be valid because you don’t know what it is like to play the other side or what it is like to be in the other sides shoes. I am a neutral player 50/50 my opinion should be valid because I know what it is like to play both sides but say if you only play survivor or only play killer, your opinion will be extremely biased and you don’t kno

  • Been seeing a lot of this today. Survivors run up into my face and stay as close to me as possible. They take up half my screen, sometimes 2 faces at once (and dang Nea’s creepy!). However, every swipe I take misses! Has something changed in the killer’s attack arc or something? Unless I have them in a vertical line through the center of my screen, attacks don’t hit. The animation shows a di

  • Hey community, I didn't rly play that much killer back in the days but because of that bug that you can't play survivor right now for some reason I wanted to ask you about your perk builds for spirit since she's my first p3 lv 50 killer right now. I will p3 doctor and wraith as well so you might as well give me some perk builds for them 😋 Thx in advance 🤗

  • Step 1. Drop pallets early . He's an 110% Killer and he can't confirm kills with his power through pallets. He's got way more mind game potential with the pallet up than down so you're safer just slamming space bar. You can stall him out for ages if he doesn't break them. And once he does break them... Step 2. Make Distance. Lithe and Sprint Burst are best against Slinger. Any time you can ge

  • I'm putting this one to all you lovely killer players out there cause I'm trying to figure out if I'm just being petty or if others have this feeling too. So scenario time, playing a game as everyone's favorite fedora master, on his own map no less, game is going ok, couple downs so far, nothing major. I'm chasing an Ace who just unhooked a Yui. Now I assume Yui has DS (cause I assume everyone

  • It would be cool if there was a new scoring event such as close call. The perk would be like mom but instead of endurance it would give like a haste effect or healing speed bonus or even endurance for like 5 seconds lol, but it’s also important to be careful when balancing endurance perks.

  • Hey, ruin makes survivors genrush.. Why? Well, when you are playing survivor and there's a ruin, why would you leave the generator early in the game? The gen will regress and it's not optimal leaving it. Yeah, you will cleanse the totem if you randomly find it, but if you are on a gen with ruin active, there's no reason to go and find it if the killer is chasing someone else.

  • So i know this might be a stupid question, but if I purchase a DLC with a character I already own, will i receive a refund of the 500 cells i paid for the character? Thanks

  • so right off the bat I think its important to learn and see what the competition is doing. RE Resistance is a good game but that's not what im here to talk about. RE has something that DBD should adopt and that's the random option. In RE resistance you can choose to be a survivor or mastermind or you can play as both and just find the quickest match. Why doesn't DBD already have this?

  • Hello, don´t get me wrong but in my opinion Solosurvivors are much better. For my self, i don´t like to play swf with voice cause i can´t play how i want. That´s the diffrent. I allways playing solo killer and survivor both on rank 1 and i like it. What´s your opinion about SWF ? is it more fun to play with friends or teammates or if you playing solo ? Greetings

  • This tierlist is seperated from the power ratings, they are not connected, I just wrote them in the order of the tierlist cuz its easier to keep them in mind for me like that. I included in the tierlist also brown up to green addons to the Killers and also perks. The Killers are getting rated from a high skill cap and player who can use the most of the potential of the Killer. Also I rated those

  • Lately I've run across a few teammates who after 3 gens done and 3 people still around somehow stumble upon the hatch...use the key to escape and never signal or try to let the rest of us know about it. This is next level selfishness and trash. So much for a team game this was supposed to be. It's worse than someone DCing. I think there should be some kind of punishment for survivors who pull thi

  • So I've been playing the game for a while now and reaching rank 10 with both killer and survivor. I'm by no means good but i have experience and play a decent variety of killers and survivors alike. But I have a question. Is it worth me investing time into getting a higher rank on survivor and then working on killer? I want to be a better killer and enjoy the role more but im not sure if im bette

  • Fix dedicated servers or bring back P2P. I am really sick and tired of all those window and pallet hits that should not have connected. If it would happen once in a while, i could deal with it, but it is happening constantly and almost every game. Beeing 2-3 meters away of a window and still getting hit is so frustrating and annoying. Also getting this stuck animation after vaulting a window

  • The survivor's scratch marks, blood trails and aura would be hidden from the killer while undetectable, this would only affect visual based detection, sound based detection such as noise notifications and grunts of pain could still be heard be the killer. I think this would be a good buff to situational stealth perks such as distortion, off the record, dance with me etc. The devs and a lot of ki

  • I played a few rounds tonight and I have vaulted through a space a few times and took a few steps afterwards, but of course, I still got hit. These hitboxes are atrocious! If you all are taking out the so called Ironworks God loop, then why not try to do whatever you can do, or talk to whomever you need to and tighten these hitboxes?
