1.) Head-on delayed effect: The perk itself is great, good for stunning killers while they are in mid-chases or carrying survivors. The problem I have is that when I see a Survivor go into a locker, I know they have head-on 90% of the time. I'll do a fake out to get them out of the locker without getting stunned. They fall for it, I go in for a lunging swing after waiting a second for them to be10 comments 71 views last activity

Last game was my last against four man SWF. Now i will dodge every single four man SWF while checking steam profiles, if all hidden also dodge, better to be an paranoid. Devs talk about how frustating and unfun to play against some killers (and guess what, they listen), but how about killers who play against tryhard invertebrates swf with voice, especialy if you want to play non "power" killers?22 comments 281 views last activity

Hey Guys Hope you are all well? First I would like to say, i really love the new map! The Western one with the very pretty sunset :D. Good job developers! So... I had this kinda random idea for a dead by daylight map + killer and I would really like to share it with you lot to see what you guys think! Please be open minded (: Feel free to also throw other ideas to this concept. It may be impo1 comments 41 views last activity

My notification for my ping, I had to literally look for it and I found out that it is a tiny red dot in the corner of my screen that I can barely see when I have high ping. I went to check if I could change the size of my screen so I could see it better and no option exists I guess. I'll take a picture next match of my ping notifier and post it here.

*Please do not turn this thread into a flame war or complaining about gen speeds - would love to see a thread stay on topic. Thanks and happy gaming! <3* I just played a game as Killer against two very good, challenging, and fun Survivors. I genuinely enjoyed chasing them and saw some very smart plays on their part.

You know devs..nurse kinda carried this game on her back for ever and her addons were bs, but please for the love of everything holy remove that blink cd..take every addon and make her have none for all I care..I just want my control back..a stun on top of a cd feels like crap47 comments 311 views last activity

How can we make this game scary? And puts you on the edge of your seat? In my opinion I first want to start by making the background a little darker kinda like that one bug where everything is dark but you have a spotlight on your character. Maybe add some screen effects where when you're being chased by a bigger killer (oni, demogorgon etc) the ground shakes a little. Leave suggestions in the12 comments 281 views last activity

Hey devs, we all know tunneling and camping is controversial. Why not just make DS and borrowed base for survivors? That way, killers won’t have to second guess if the survivors have DS or BT... they will always know. Let’s be honest, killers already have enough crutches to begin with. Implement these into survivors core and not as perks plz Just kidding. I recently returned to your8 comments 142 views last activity

aight i have a couple of ideas that would be good for the game, atleast in my opinion. feel free to tell me your opinions on these. remove brand new parts and gen speeds would be fine now that toolboxes have been nerfed. 4 brand new parts can make insane difference in a match. otherwise gen speeds are perfectly fine. playing as killer is now easier than ever but brand new parts need to go. buf6 comments 41 views last activity

The past couple weeks since the chains of hate update dropped I seem to be getting blinded immediately without a build up, normally you would see that your about to be blinded so you can look away, but I haven't been getting the normal light that increases in intensity quickly, I'm just getting blinded instantly. Is anyone else experiencing this? Is insta blind back? Or am I just going crazy. Tha1 comments 41 views last activity

I was Huntress at the saloon, but 2 guys suicided first hook and no one could hold a chase for more than 10 seconds (running into walls whilst looking back) and I saw one of them walk into the basement for a save and just crouch over to a locker as I was looking straight at them (wasn't camping I was checking a gen, turned back and saw them in the shack).1 comments 31 views last activity

Hey ! Totally new here. I created this account just to ask a simple question. I stopped playing DbD for a couple of days, and came back to the game yesterday, when i saw there was a BP bonus. I just reached 1000h on the game. I played only survivor for these last two days at rank 2-3, and only faced insidious campers, a ######### ton of ebony mori's and just came across a jake on my team who s14 comments 91 views last activity

Title. Sometimes a match is just stupid and frustrating. There needs to be some (not a LOT, but some) allowance for people to just not want to continue a given match, especially with how bad matchmaking currently is, and how survivors are cranking out all the toolbox addons they can before the patch hits to make them single-use. There's no reason or sensibility in giving scaling bans for DCs if84 comments 1,591 views last activity

So, as of late, there has been a rampant rise within the Killer community of tunnellers and campers. This has been the case ever since the Ruin rework. To me, there is zero justification of this behaviour. I could reasonably see it back when Dying Light was based on the Obsession dying, and I can sympathise with camping out someone who's done nothing but flashlight and teabag you for a majority94 comments 1,381 views last activity

I know this game is set in its ways and It’s too late to make any crazy huge significant game changers but, if we rewound time and took away your ability to choose a role, how different would you feel the game would be? Would you still be here? Some Asymmetrical Gaming would have everyone Que up to play and among those who opted to play, one would be randomly chosen to become the killer.

Yes you have your bad coordinated SWF and yes you have your poop game but even though losing 2 or 3 gens early on will hurt you pipping but early on is not when a killer shines. When you have 2 gens or 1 gen left that’s when a killer shines, the sacrifices start rolling in and survivors drop like flies, most of my games I get a 3K or 4K when there is 1 or 2 gens left.

It's very common among smart killers to delay the game endlessly once it's down to the last 2 survivors, where they will down 1 but not hook them so they can go find the other and this way no one gets the hatch. There needs to be something to counter this. Something like lets say if you are the downed survivor and 60 seconds pass, you can open the hatch while in a downed state. This isn't unbalan7 comments 101 views last activity

As someone who has played a significant amount of survivor then killer (though im starting to play killer alot more) one thing that has always bothered me is in relation to your items and bad games. When I say 'bad games' I dont mean a game where the killer does well and kills everyone, but where the killer puts someone in the basement and then camps it all game, or where other survivors troll0 comments 31 views last activity

I'd like to point out that since Hex:Ruin was basically removed from existence the average game lasts about 5 minutes. If the survivors are doing gens then they are getting done in insanely fast time, if they are not doing gens and being idiots then they just die in the same amount of time, ever since ruin got nerfed there are no in between games its always the 2 far ends.

So I've noticed that in my 4 years, 3000+ hours in this game the imbalance is prominent. It definitely sucks playing as killer but there is much wrong with the survivor side as well. Killers (not all) assume that ALL survivors are baby survivors and salty as always but never take into consideration that survivors have been forced to a play style as well. Survivors (not all) assume killers are3 comments 51 views last activity

So for a while there I didn’t see too many Self Cares - it seemed to fall out of favour, and I haven’t run it myself for a long time. But recently, I see multiple Self Cares in almost every match I play, and I’m red rank on both sides. Does anyone else have this experience? I understand why some people run it, even if I’m not a fan of the perk personally, but it’s more popular than DS in my exp35 comments 541 views last activity

Most aggravating bugs have been caused by the dedicated servers. This is likely because your movement bounces to the server at some moments, and instead of simply updating your location and sending you the other players' positions, the server tries to send you your position and updates your position. This updates your position on your own client, and causes that frustrating teleport/flicker/r0 comments 21 views last activity

Hello there Recently i am back on playing a little bit more survivor and since i like from time to time diversified and unique builds i am thinking about - as you can imagine - unique survivor builds. But there are some perks i really struggle to create a good build around that actually makes sense and is not totally aweful. Maybe some of you have interesting ideas about these builds i still n0 comments 31 views last activity

Had 5 matches in a row with farming people. Either the killer farmed or stayed afk to farm chase points. Or survivors throw the match and insta unhook. I really like the idea, but it's not working well with this Community. The grind is probably just to much and therefore people take full advantage of these events. But it's NOT fun.

We get Kill with Friends, too Yeah, you heard me. 4v4. Are you ready to ######### your pants at the sight of four legions? Because this new feature would allow killers to queue up and kill survivors together! Now, you might be thinking "Lmao that's so unbalanced" but here's the thing: When I said 4v4 I meant 4 Killers VS 4 SWFs. 16 Survivors. And every map is 2x bigger.

I have an idea to change SWFs. the idea I present does nothing about mechanics in-game of SWFs, but encourages team play without worsening the killer experience (I hope). My idea is about bloodpoint gain. Individuals that is part of a SWF team will get less bloodpoints earned through actions, but the rewards will be shared with all SWFs members (the bloodpoints penalty will be lessened with smal0 comments 31 views last activity

I don't ######### know, for what reason developers god damn ignore the Legion. He has obviously so many problems.

I've been using Inner Strength for about two weeks now and only managed to actually use it about three times.

If we consider that each survivor needs 3 hangs to die (12 in total) and the survivors only need to make 5 engines, isn't the game a bit unfair? not to mention how easy and fast it is to repair an engine (in less than 4 minutes all 5 engines can be completed) they would not have to do more engines to be able to escape?.

Hi So for clarity few things Killer Main Rank 5 to 4 highest is 3, Freddy main (lets not get into that topic yet lol) also huge stealth killer fan. Now GF (ghost face for short) is a fun stealth killer but i believe that his stalk is bit meh and a huge time waster especially in this day and age where everything seems to be going at blinding speeds (again not getting into that topic) part of it9 comments 861 views last activity

Seems to me every time I look for the hatch, it's not there... Only once all generators are powered or there is one survivor left. Very rarely do I ever find a hatch on the map after set amount of encounters done to spawn it.

Like it could just be me. But I really do not enjoy playing vs clown. He’s already faster yet has an ability to slow us, and has loads of bottles. This makes it so tunnelling is what always always happens. It’s so boring to play vs and it is all I have played against since hitting red ranks.

I am 100% sure that Amanda Young will have been reworked in coming big patch. Why? First of all - Pig can be extremely unfun to play against. If Pig players want to - they will hard tunnel Survivors very easily by crouching right behind / abusing the chase mechanic so the Death timer eventually expires. The second one is Pig is kinda weak.

I've come to the conclusion that this game will die withing the year or maybe year and a half. I've found my self needing to take a break from it for a while then coming back to to see if it's better now; but I see no changes being done to improve balancing and more imbalances constantly being added to the game such as op killers, getting hit through vaults unfairly, map bugs, the list goes on an64 comments 991 views last activity

I started off killer main but now I play both pretty much equally. Both have downsides and upsides. Alot of the time I see people on here complain about certain perks/items, and in all honesty.
