Before killer mains start freaking out, no, I am not suggesting the old "2 hooks" before being allowed a mori. No, I have been thinking about this for quite some time. Personally, I think 1 hook per survivor is too little, but I think 2 hooks is too much. So how can we reach something that is more than 1 hook per survivor yet less than 2 hooks per survivor? I'd say its rather easy: add in genera2 comments 191 views last activity

Hello people of the fog i would like an opinion on a deathslinger change that was told to me by friend. So the change is when the deathslinger harpoons an injured survivor and manages to hit them he does not have to reload to give hime more potential in the snowball. The goal for this change was so he could have more synergy with both infection fright and and save the best for last. I think it2 comments 81 views last activity

And as in perfect I mean perfectly awful. My teammates are potatoes, I'm back to rank 10 for some reason even though I was red ranks, did I mention potato teammates who just run in straight lines? Anyways, this game has been nothing but a disappointment. I even take 2 week breaks, just to come back to sad games. Why do I need SWF to have reliable teamamtes.3 comments 51 views last activity

Alright, I don't DC enough to find out. But people are outright saying that DC penalties are multiplied for killer. This doesn't sound right at all. How does the DC penalty work, is it a timer independent for each side? Or is it a shared consequential timer? Ie. I play 2 killer matches, DC from each and get a 5 minute timer for both, then play survivor and get a 15 minute timer (vice versa, fl27 comments 551 views last activity

Why have the devs not updated the legion's purple and iridescent addons? They actually are literal garbage besides iridescent button and cold dirt. frank's and stab wounds study are 100% useless Fuming mix tape is like the wraith's addon except you have to enter frenzy in which you see no scratch marks, suffer a 4 second stun I don't get why these things are so bad and still haven't been to0 comments 21 views last activity

I've been running into really buggy games for the past week, but this one took the cake. I had an out of body experience with the perspective of the Killer mid-game. I literally had to try 3-4 times to do somethings before the severs actually acknowledged it. Plus I got an error message at the end of the game and my game flat out crashed. It's not just me, when I have these issues others acknow2 comments 41 views last activity

Just an example of what I'm saying here: I was playing a match against a wrath and while I was injured, I was trying to listen for him (as he had cloaked himself) and I could not hear him due to the music that played while I was injured. I was not in a chase any longer either. I'm interested in hearing what people think of this. Maybe even toning down the music would help! 🤷7 comments 71 views last activity

So we all had this situation, survivors do bad, 2 dead before 2 gens are done. They hide. they hide for ages hoping the other one dies and they can find hatch. So what do i do as lets say clown LUL to find at least one of them? On... lets say new lerys? they urban evasion arround for 15 minutes, i dont find it fun AND i cant bleed out.

Obviously, I'm super glad the game is finally getting actually balanced and not just nerfed, but if we're talking about balance, what needs to be balanced/nerfed? In my opinion, keys need to be nerfed, as right now they're just frustrating as killer if the survivor knows where the hatch is. I think give the keys a use time that correlates to their rarity, like a green key is a 3 second use time a78 comments 1,602 views last activity

Just look at this. Every color of the rainbow. Gee...the only one that survived was a sweaty rank 2 with every single meta perk on deck lol. Flashlight in hand. Against a low rank level 20 doc with green perks,ha. I'm not trying to come off as complaining or anything. I feel myself getting better getting tested by the higher level players.

Why is this still happening? I’ve lost 4 maps and probably many other items because of this bug. Keep an eye on your items as when you lose them, you will load up with one from your inventory until you actually have zero of that same item left. • NO the killer did not have Franklin’s • NO I did not use all of my charges • YES I did escape the trial3 comments 301 views last activity

When I play Demogorgon, one thing about him is ever present; the footsteps. Unmistakable, booming. Like a bass drum at 120 BPM. Y'all did a great job on this. Clearly put a lot of effort into it. Could you put a similar amount of effort into making sure downed survivor moaning can be heart consistently, and that generators can always be heard through walls/floors?2 comments 31 views last activity

ohTofu does these podcasts with other dead by daylight YouTubers where they discuss what's new in the game and they also discuss others things off of that. He tries to get three different types of players, killer main, survivors main and both sides main to get everyone's point of view on each topic.

The bugs killers have is what annoys me the most right now about this game. Pretty much every single game as killer, I get atleast one bug that negatively effects my performance. Be it aim-dressing locking on objects or just thin air instead of the actual survivor costing crucial hits, or killer powers outright not working as they are intended (Hag, Nurse, Myers/Ghostface, Spirit just to name a6 comments 91 views last activity

Hate to add to the 10,000 topics about Ruin, but this one is a little different. I'm not complaining; yayyy 💜 But my question is, in the current state that Ruin is in should it even be a hex perk anymore?12 comments 91 views last activity

Made a list of the DLC survivors with the most solid Perk load-out from each year. If you bought each of them, you'd be able to make some very strong survivor lineups. 2016- Laurie. 2017- Bill. 2018- Jeff 2019- Nancy 2020- Not Zarina2 comments 42 views last activity

Killers complain about swf, but use ebony mories/camp/tunnel. Survivors complain about camper and tunnelers but tbag at the exit gate/trashtalk the killer in the end game chat. If you play in an unfun way, do not exept others to be nice to you. If you complain about your opponents but do any of the mentioned things above, then review yourself.

Whenever you over a locker, every locker within 48m will burst open, and force any survivor out of the lockers. These survivors scream and are exposed for 60s. If you expose a survivor, this perk goes on cooldown for 40s, and all lockers within range are entity blocked. You open lockers 50% faster. This part is not affected by the cooldown.10 comments 111 views last activity

He does have map and gen pressure, with addons he does have a passive slowdown, he can spam dream snares or dream pallets without a penalty. The only penalty he does have is the small loss of a cooldown when he fakes the teleport. Don't get me wrong, I'm not calling for nerfs, I just feel that he requires almost zero skill for high reward. But I want to get better at playing against him, so pl54 comments 1,882 views last activity

It's seriously so stupid! If they luck off the hook or use Deliverance DS should not activate. DS is overpowered in general, but let's save that for another day. Especially in situations where you hook someone right next to an open exit gate, it's just a skilless crawl out the exit and if you pick them up and they get off anyway. That's not anti-tunnel. That's a free escape. Fix your game!6 comments 71 views last activity

Curious to see what your guys thoughts on this are. Decisive Strike is a very powerful perk, and there have been countless discussions on how to make it more fair. Now that the active ability button can be used at dropped pallets to stand them up, I thought of this idea. To activate Decisive Strike, hold the activate ability button next to a pallet to destroy it and create a wooden spike. Th7 comments 101 views last activity

So i've lost count on the times i've used plunderer's and i get a brown toolbox from a chest.The tooltip says at t3 "grants a considerably better chance at finding an item of higher rarity" I get it,this means that it is not guaranteed just a higher chance.Now,how many times have u used a map offering,which grants a tremendously higher chance(still not guaranteed)and the trial took place in anot3 comments 61 views last activity

Why isn’t this combo more common? It effectively makes it so you’re alerted to every survivor’s location after each hook (unless they’re already nearby, but Infectious Fright could tell you that if you wanted)6 comments 491 views last activity

I got about 40 hours into the game, im doing pretty well as a killer (Rank 5) and survivor (Rank 8) having fun but after every game the chat is pure toxic spew.

"You're a tunneler, you are just bad you gotta go for the same person" It's like, if I spot them after they are rescued am I suppose to go.. ok I downed him before better l58 comments 6,773 views last activity

i don’t know if it has to do with latency or just overall terrible acknowledgement of interactions with pallets in this game. I push the button to drop the pallet and my character simply does not do it and of course here comes god like melee range killer to thwart me into the ground. My friend complained about it too so it can’t just be me. It’s ridiculous man I’m about ready to uninstall this pi0 comments 121 views last activity

Since slugging became a very popular strategy, even more then before, its just too good to have atleast one unbreakable. Even better if more then one. I had various games where I would win by having 4 survivors slugged but 1 unbreakable manage to throw me completly off and bring back the entire game. Unbreakable doesnt work always and is a situational perk just like adrenaline. I am totally awar69 comments 1,441 views last activity

I've played both survivor and killer and it's pretty clear that playing killer is more stressful. I'm not saying survivor can't be hard, but playing killer is a very tense experience compared to survivor. Generator and match speed goes way too fast for these map sizes, (especially for killers with little to no map pressure like Clown), a lot of killer perks are obsolete and fall short of others w20 comments 741 views last activity

It's worse in endgame, but at any point in game, I should be allowed to NOT HAVE TO PICK UP A DS USER. So when endgame comes and 2 survivors have DS ticking, am i supposed to just let them go? or look stupid as they stun me from the lockers theyre hiding in, from DS.51 comments 3,971 views last activity

This is only for hybrid Players(play killer and Survivor). Which side do y'all think needs to be buffed? Y'all don't have to explain why. I just wanna see people's answer. Me personally, I think killers need to b a bit stronger. Let's keep things civil and respectfully disagree if our opinions differ.68 comments 1,901 views last activity

He seems to be pretty fun but when it comes to power i doubt he will perform well with his current state, huntress outclasses him by far since she can properly punish survivors who vault or drop a pallet, but for some reason they decided to give him the "legion style" of balance where he can't down you but he applies deep wound unless you reel them in until you m1 them, and his speed is too low f8 comments 161 views last activity

Let me sum it up, as someone who plays both sides. As Killer, gens fly and you have to play dirty to stand a chance. Slugging, tunneling, camping. As Survivor, you have the deal with these tactics after waiting in long queues. Both roles have taken a major hit in enjoyment level and this got a lot worse after the Ruin nerf. We are at a crossroads. Are the devs going to fix the game or keep taking13 comments 351 views last activity

It's what they say after the game. The non-stop complaining about EVERYTHING. Too many survivors lack game awareness. They lack the ability to see that the killer has no option but to do some of the things they do. Like 99% of the time I do something scummy it's because I was forced to do it. I don't want to play scummy, I will outright ignore survivors I've hooked already if I'm not forced to32 comments 1,181 views last activity

I beat a hag to the hatch stood on it and got no prompt to exit. Seconds later she ran up with me standing on the open hole and shut the hatch and killed me. She said this new feature, you can't leave if the killer is close is part of the update. I think this kind of stinks. It is hard enough to find the hatch, but not to be able to use it if the killer is close is junk. It should be if you beat12 comments 281 views last activity

I feel like Spirit hasn’t changed at all on the Survivor side. One of the main complaints was that Spirit was a total guessing game - not much skill except from walking or running in circles, hoping the Spirit is deaf. She can still stand in the middle of a pallet and pretend to phase and then see you running away or staying in place and phase...
