  • Hey Devs! Since Ash Williams was realeased in Dead by Daylight, i bought his shopping mall skin, because i really enjoy this cosmetic. But i recently discoverd that his wooden hand (which is included in this skin) doesnt have an animation. It just looks wierd when he is holding an item or stuggles on the hook when second state. The moment when the mori of the clown was changed because of Ash (t

  • So, I have enough shards to unlock only one of these. Which one should I unlock? Based on overall perks and playability of those perks, character design and feel? Kindly share your opinion.

  • Start the trial with 2 tokens instead of 3. Every time you escape a chase with the killer, gain 1 token. Max of 4 tokens (Up from 3 max)

  • So do we see "batch matchmaking" get introduced with chapter 15? I also would wish to some more technical insights, what got optimized with chapter 15? Is there another game engine update? As it's not only consoles need more optimizations, also PC needs some.

  • A list of a few killer strats I know. Feel free to add. Regular: down and hook. Carry on to the next patrol. It works often. Nice with locator perks to find the next target (BBQ, whispers, discordance, etc) 3 gen: beginning of game find 3 gens that are close together that you can defend easily. Simply stick near those 3. Don't let people bait you away. Time is on your side. Just protect your 3

  • HEY GUYS. THIS IS EINK 🔥 I just came up with an idea when I’m playing DEAD BY DAYLIGHT. I thought it would be awesome to take some of the characters' clothes to make it into merchandises. Not for cosplays but for actual practical daily outfits. As for me, if there’s Jeff’s Skullhead ugly sweater out there, I will buy it no matter how much it costs. It would be a GRACE FOR FANS. 💀

  • For the love of god please remove the possibility of taking an item from behind the chest. It's annoying as hell when another survivor is behind the chest getting ready to yoink it. This shouldn't be possible and so many survivors do it just to be little dicks.

  • Forgive me if there has already been a topic on this, or this topic is a useless topic that everyone should know about. Killers For killer, play as The Doctor or Legion. They both grant a ton of bloodpoints from their Deviousness category. Also, encourage the lobby to shed bloodpoint offerings, try to get a lobby where everyone has bloody party streamers. Try to use Category offerings as mu

  • I know, we only had one, but I liked it. If you don't know what it was, I think it was for getting Feng's event shirt for the Lunar Event, what we had to do was collect a LOT of different tokens after doing generators or hooking survivors, which is how you got the cosmetics without purchasing, I.E getting the hound mask and david's lunar jacket. I hope on winter solstice we get this in De

  • EDIT: Some good points have been made, I'd like to change my proposal to this: Hatch should never become visible until all generators have been completed, and if the hatch is opened early with a key, closing it should remove it for the remainder of the match. If a survivor uses a key to open the hatch early, and killer then closes it, or if the killer sacrifices 3 survivors, and beats the

What I will say however is that Object of Obsession shouldn't exist because it's a perk that in my opinion, is the most powerful perk in the game especially in a Survive With Friends group. And since I know some people on this forum likes to use

  • So killers are basically different game modes seeing as how their powers bring in different approaches and strategies, but what if they finally did add in different game modes? What would you like to see? Inb4 2 killers 8 survivors. Imagine having 2 killers tunnel you to death with 7 survivors running out the door. ._. I'd like to see a one hit kill mode but with 4 lives each. Although they'd

  • So quick background I'm a rank 1-2 survivor and I used to be barely red rank killer, hovered between 4-6 when I played mostly killer, I was competitive at red rank only if I played spirit or Ghostface to be honest. Nowadays I enjoy survivor more, but I like the bloodpoints from killer plus evening I get instant games so I enjoy that when I don’t have a lot of time to play. I play almost all kil

  • I just had the idea outside of new perks/ content coming to the game exclusively with new characters, what if new perks/ gameplay mechanics could be released alone? perhaps instead of fleshing out the game by just constantly adding new characters we could see some of the non licensed killers receive options for different power types that they could switch between games with an entirely different

  • As tittle says it difficult to reveal the ghostface on a multi layer map from above or below and while on the hook. The only way to reveal him in these instances are through a weird angle or am I the only one.

  • There, I said it. People complain a lot about them but jeez... I like playing as them. I'm not saying they are amazing, top tier or anything.. but I love that IF YOU GET LUCKY you can just wound everybody almost immediately. Also... running fast is cool. I'm a simple man. Some things I would suggest to make him better, though: 1- Make breaking pallets when vaulting, basekit. It may sound lik

  • This month I decided to try playing solo to see how far I get while not playing SWF. I still managed to hit rank 4 and I was pretty proud of myself. Especially with all the tunneling I get for playing Claudette because "hur dur fucc Blendette that's not even a Blendette because she's in a white top and not even running iron will or quick and quiet". But since hitting red ranks I've had almost no

  • Rank 1 trapper main, xbox, using Spirit with green addons for speed in Lery's cause I had a challenge, a P3 Quentin brings in a key, and 3 survivors bring in toolboxes, don't get me wrong, I'm not against keys nor toolboxes, but of course I'm gonna play smart and keep him (the key guy) away from hatch. I play normally, no camping, no tunneling, BW, Discordance, BBQ and Rancor I manage to

  • I would love to see End Game Collapse trigger after the last Gen is done. I think this would put pressure on the survivors to hurry and exit the game and give the killer some actual fight after the last gen is done. A change like this will actually buff Remember Me, and Wake Up seeing as how these perks are barely used. Any feedback or comments on this idea would be appreciated

Maybe by providing some challenges from the community, we can see a good shift in challenges for the future! Here are some ideas of my own. I'd also like to see what everyone else comes up with!

  • This math assumes nobody is using perks such as DH, BT, or DS, no insta downs, and nobody is healing ever. The absolute minimum hits to get a 3 hook on all 4 survivors is 16. 2 for first down, 1 for each after that=4 hits per survivor*4 survivors=16 Now let's say that the killer has an absolutely perfect game. They are either chasing, searching, or hooking a survivor at all times. Here are som

  • Wonder how much we can say without saying it. Innuendos while retaining relevancy. So... Wanna smash the huntresses face huh? Make sure you use your Dead Hard a little prematurely. If you pull out that Dead Hard early against the huntress, she can't do anything about it. She can only come for you and get smashed in the face (with a pallet). And I tell you, smashing the huntresses face is pretty

  • I know a lot of killers like to complain about keys and compare them to moris but keys unlike moris are not always useful in a match. It took me at least 10 tries if not more to accomplish the key challenge in the rift. It wasnt easy. Keys only REALLY come in handy when there are 1 or 2 gens left but only two survivors. In this scenerio that game is pretty much lost unless you have a key. But if

  • Was just in a game, went really well, got everyone except one hooked. My internet decides to die for literally a second or two and I get punished, losing all points and I get a 5 minute wait time. Either fix it so it can tell the difference between an intentional DC or have it so it gives you a few seconds to reconnect you before immediately DC'ing you. Got cucked by BHVR, as usual. Smh.

  • I'm thinking pig really needs some love, not entirely sure what would flow well with her kit tho. Maybe adding the "Deep Wound" status effect on successful ambush hits? Ambush, as is, isn't really useful considering the charge time, auditory notification for survivors, and linear path. Most pigs I see, which aren't many considering there are more killers who offer better outcomes, including mysel

  • Ever since Oni was released, I've had this thought in my head of the Minotaur, in a Labyrinth style map. It would be pretty terrifying to see that thing charging at you, Billy-esque, especially now that breakable walls are a thing. Or Medusa could work, though I can't fathom how stone gaze would be implemented.

  • a PSA especially true for console players, not used to dedicated servers: killers, when you dodge a lobby the survivors will remain waiting for a killer with precedence over anybody else. this means that if you try to rejoin a lobby immediately, you will most probably join the same survivors, over and over again. solution: don’t lobby dodge, or just turn off the game. -a fellow killer

  • You know what’s extremely frustrating as killer? Hitting someone that’s unhooking someone only for ur hit to auto clip to the hooked person and not the person going for the save. It makes 0 sense for it to auto lock on to the hooked person as there is 0 reason for u to need to hit the person already on hook.

I am level 13 at the moment and have just played a batch of games against players of as high as rank 2. How is this even a thing? When this happens, the players just turn toxic as all getup and even the post game chat is nothing more than an attempt to continue the bullying. Love the
