  • So I tried geforce now and played dbd. Played on low with 100% resolution. Can't even maintain stable 60 fps, dips down everytime. And I assume geforce now servers are running on really good rigs, so whats up BHVR? Optimisation still no high priority for u? Kinda embarrassing at this point.

  • I just played a bunch of games today (both killer and survivor). What I've noticed is that totem's life is around 15 second or less. Even or especially noed. High ranks survivors simply know where all totems are located. Besides haunted grounds every other totem perk will just be instantly removed from the game without any benefits being made out of it. It happens like 9 times out of 10. Why do w

  • This forum is filled with posts of survivor mains complaining about killers, and their perks like NoEd, BBQ, Franklins etc. Same for killer mains complaining about survivors and their perks like DS, BT, Adrenaline, etc. If everyone played equally both sides at least for a little while it could help to understand the whole picture, and better understand why survivors do what they do and why kill

  • Yes guys, saltiest SWF on DbD said me after getting smacked by Noed that I'm a noob for using it and gen speed is not my problem. Ok boomers.

  • To be honest, I hate Gen Rushing. I keep saying how much I hate it, but I haven't put myself in the Dev's shoes. I wonder, how can I fix Gen Rushing while not displeasing anyone? My idea was to increase the percentage of skill checks, increase gen speeds, and add a couple of new skill checks that are different from the original That's mine, what are yours?

  • When you get hit by a killer you get a boost in speed. My question is if you get hit and you get that speed boost and you use sprint burst, do you get additional speed with sprint burst too or are you basically wasting the sprint burst? Should you wait till the hit boost is over then use sprint burst to be more effective? Thanks.

  • I was playing nurse with infectious deer stalker , bbq and Shadowborn, so a slugging build i got in the lobby and they all were pizza Dwights so I assumed swf hence the slugging build, so as soon as I got in I started slugging and they had 4 gens done at the end and I had all of them slugged one of them had unbreakable but I blinked over and got them back on the ground so I hooked every one nobod

  • So Survivors wonder why killers dodge lobbies, I just came across a lobby, with four blendettes all with the same out fit, 2 toolboxes and 2 flashlights. Why do survivors think killers dodge lobbies?? Isn’t it very clear at this point

  • What's your favorite perk? What's your least favorite? What builds do you like making with said favorite perk? My favorite is Haunted Grounds usually running Totem Roulette. Least favorite is No Mither because I just can't understand it.

  • I'm curious what you guys think about Legion. I always hear people complain about him- survivors don't like him because he's hard to avoid, while killer's don't like him because he's too "weak". I'm not really sure what I think about him yet, so I'm curious what you guys think. Do you think he's fine the way he is? Or what would you do to "fix" him? I know this is a lot to ask of the dbd commun

  • I feel like a lot, I mean, A LOT of the discussions here could be settled with widely available access to stats. If we could know stuff like each killer's kill rate per map per rank, pick rate, escape rates on each map, etc our discussions could be a lot more based on facts rather than speculation. Okay, it feels like absolute ######### being eternally looped, gen rushed, face camped or tunneled

  • Can nurse get some sort of console exclusive revert she was already the lowest performing killer before her rework. And I doubt she is any where close to a 50% winrate.

  • Slowly but surely information is being taken away from the DBD community. SWFs weren't shown for fear of killers dodging lobbies which survivors were happy about. The real issue was BHVR introducing something good but ignoring it needed to be balanced at the expense of killers fun. However with half the the community wanting this they were allowed to do so. Ranks are next to be hidden the reaso

  • I know it’s a personal choice but I’d like to hear pros and cons from anyone else. I have Meg and Steve with all perks, and my others are either at 40 for teachable if they’re good or lower if their teachable stink or managed to get them off of the shrine. Meg and Steve also have a ton of keys, medkits toolboxes and addons so I am just stockpiling if I level then and I don’t wanna prestige. Sh

  • I have been trying to get the David archive where I must get a protection hit. I've been trying to get it for three games now and the game is not giving me a protection hit even though I have taken hits when the killer is carrying someone and hits when I'm right behind the survivor. I'm not only not getting the archive achievement, but also not getting we're gonna live forever stacks. Is anyone e

  • I love playing the Pig although she is kinda strange in some ways. My Perks Are BBQ, Whispers, Monitor and Nurses calling. For add ons i Like playing the two that make her dash charge faster or +1 Box( with increased timer) + 1 Trap for slowing the game down a little bit more. How do You play her? But even if shes fun to play she kinda needs some adjustments imo. 1 Why can she see The boxes?

  • Every rank reset, I try something new while trying to get to rank one. Like getting to rank 1 by: Using OP builds. Using no perks. Using ONLY chainsaw on Billy AND Bubba. When Demogorgon came out, I got to rank 1 using only shred. I've done other things but I would like to hear what you guys have done. My personal favorite? Getting to rank 1 survivor using No Mither and Self Care xD

I want replay system so that I can actually see how they found or how they aimed. I am wondering if devs have any thought of making replay

  • Disclaimer: I'm going to start by saying I'm a rank 3 Killer and a rank 6 Survivor, so I understand both sides of this game. If you're a salty whiny survivor that doesn't care to get actual skill, go ahead and Alt+F4 before reading this. If you're willing to take in what I have to say and possibly provide some good counterargument, enjoy the post. So recently (I mean within the past 6 months or

  • Am I the only one that thinks that Dedicated Servers are Far Worse than Peer to Peer? I understand the purpose and it was to make Lag Switchers not a thing anymore; it can still happen. A laggy killer or survivor can still get away with Stupid stuff, because, say, A Killer has bad ping. The survivors registering to the server and to The Killers screen; they're still in that spot where they wer

  • There is not enough risk in opening a chest with the abundance of rewards so I propose a creature pops out of one randomly and latches itself to the survivors face eventually putting them into a dying state unless two other survivors team up to remove the thing.

  • I find my self only using around 3 of nurses addons and those are fatigue recharge and range all the rest are just meme addons like come on one of the addons makes it so you can’t even blink for 60 seconds lol and the addons that adds a blink makes it so you can’t even blink through walls bhvr please look at nurse again because she’s not very appealing to play especially to new players

  • I would like to offer you an idea, that you give Bubba a new animation of Memento Mori. This is a post to a previous post about the sound effects of a chainsaw. Yes, it may seem long to you, but it's worth it. This will be the most spectacular Memento in the game! In addition, you can remove the dance with a chainsaw, but add a moment where Bubba starts the chainsaw, pulling the starter several

  • So I'm relatively new having got the game a week or so ago and just had an...interesting back and forth with a survivor I killed when two people disconnected (and the clowns didn't at least have the decency to do it quick enough to have the game auto-end but early enough that it basically made the game impossible for the survivors as five generators were still needed). To me, someone is gettin

  • Desperation: A general perk that everyone has now When you are unhooked, or unhook yourself, you can recover from the dying state and wiggle 50% faster for 60/70/80s. You can pick yourself up from the dying state when desperation is active. Recovering a health state, touching a generator, or escaping the killer's grasp removes this effect. Good synergy with flip-flop i guess. But that perk wi

Unfortunately, there is a slight chance that survivors could win since there was a minimum amount of entrants into the entity games. So we'll see if Dweet is the truly evil one here!

  • My answer, since all my killers have all perks and I only “main,” two survivors right now who also have all perks I am spending mine on bloodwebs for Meg and Steve to get them extra medkits mostly. Every once in a while I spend points to grab a few extra addons/moris for Wraith, GF, Billy, plague or Doctor. I have no interest in prestige since I already have a cosmetic or two I like for everyon

  • Can anyone tell me if BHVR are actually acknowledging SWF whether on comms or not has an advantage over solos and even more when on comms (which mainly happens). I was so bored waiting in survivor queues I thought, let's try killer again and yes just had a green rank killer play a 4 player SWF on comms. Are BHVR going to balance this game as rework nerf

  • When you do Bubba’s rework, please change the sound of a chainsaw. The current sound is terrible. Give the chainsaw a normal roar. Take the chainsaw and press the "gas" for a few minutes to get a pleasant roar of the chainsaw. And also, I really hope that the upcoming Bubba rework will give him a new animation, were is he pulls the chainsaw starter several times. In all films about Bubba, and i

  • Overcharge is rly underwhelming, people that are decent to the game hit the skillcheck with no problems, making the perk useless, so I propose this: The skillcheck now has kinda of a "choice" to it When receiving the skillcheck you have to options: -Hit it, which still requires focus and work, exhausting you for 25 seconds but keeping the progression. -If you miss it you have an increased reg

  • if you can place a trap in the grass that a survivor cant see , and they're looking for it and still get trapped , that is unbalanced gameplay. what can a survivor do. they creep to the hook but then SNAP get caught in a trap they literally couldn't see. this needs to end.

  • So tonight I managed to get all perks at rank 3 on all my killers and cap at 1 millions BPs. I have all perks on Meg and Steve so I don’t “need,” blood points anymore. Yes I still want them, stockpile addons for killers and survivors of course, but I don’t NEED double blood points. This is the first time in a long time I feel able to actually run without BBQ and I’m looking forward to it. I ne

  • So if NOED is buffed making it really detrimental for survivors that don't cleanse all totems, that would make games last a bit longer. I mean cleanse all totems is not that hard and there is perks to help find them, but it takes a bit more time for survivors then just gen rushing and escape. Being able to kill survivors by your hand could be something, just baking in the red mori in the perk.

  • survivors have so many ways to counter the things killers do such as camping, tunneling and slugging . meanwhile killers have .... slowdown perks(the majority of them are horrible excluding pop) Most killer perks have counters too also most (yes I said most not all ) killer perks you have to work towards such as pop, play with your food , stbfl and many more.

Clown, Cannibal, Legion, Wraith and Trapper all need smaller or bigger changes to be brought up to par with the rest of the killer cast, then we have Pig and Hillbilly, who need full add-on passes. Then there are Oni, Huntress and Hag who n

Sorry for the long text, I'm fairly new in the game, playing for three months, so far getting a rank three as the killer and six as a survivor, even because I prefer playing killer for I do not have many friends yet who plays DBD at the same hours I do. One thing is bothering me a lot is the Disconnect strategy very used by the red ranked players. "Do I not like the killer (
