  • I was playing a match as the doctor, on the Myers map, no biggie. Well I don't carry ruin any more because it is literal trash now. I got into my first chase pretty quickly and downed the person, but when I went to go hook them, three gens went off all st the same time. Now ######### is that bs. You can't tell me "oh you have to go around the map and kick gens blah blah blah". The case was liter

  • Survivor, you dont like the way the game is going? Run up to the killer, get hooked, make yourself die, next game. Killer, you dont like the way the game is going? Tough, you are in this till the end, no matter what, you are going to suffer through it.

  • You know I would feel bad, but after that - I don't really mind that he was the first to die. In game he obviously didn't know any of the loops on Ironworks, and how much his friends ignored Generators to save him off hook / bodyblock for him. It was clear that they were S

  • I've noticed a common theme among the threads regarding ranking systems, difficulty of matching skill level and "burnout factor" from having to try too hard. I know there is an MMR system on the horizon, which is good and I think it would couple nicely with the following idea for the rank systems. Each rank should be based on population distribution, MMR, Success Metrics (win / loss ratio, bloo

  • Some time ago I made the comment that if you scape as survivor then you should get rank progress, or if as killer you get 3 or 4 kills, then also you should get rank progress. This because those are the main objectives for each and it sucks that when you had a good match you get no progress or even lose progress because either the killer or survivor actually did poorly. Although, for survivors s

  • Can expect that we will ever get replay feature in this game? I know you can record your games, but seeing it from the perspective of other players is something else. You should be able to see footage from all players, or maybe it should be the whole map rendered with a free camera, like in some games. Why is this important? It allows you to see yours and other players habits and decisions, an

  • Im talking about their stalking and revealing the Ghostface. It's no secret that both of those fellas are hella broken. They have been for a few months now (basically ever since we got dedicated servers). It's really not fun playing as them or against them, Im going to go as far as to say that they're literally unplayable (no pun intended). There isn't really much to add, are there any plans to a

  • I'd love to see the ability to break small trees and bamboos as killer. Started off thinking that Billy and cannibal should be able to go through it with chainsaws, but then thought that any attack from any killer should have the same effect (for example throwing a hatchet as huntress will break it, shred as demogorgon will break it, m1 attack from clown will break it etc). Large trees remain unb

  • What do you think of players exploiting bugs in the PTB? Would you report them? What if they were trying to spread awareness of such bugs? What if the "victim" agreed to have the exploit used on them for the sake of demonstration? To me, I wouldn't report people during the PTB since I see it as a time to play casually and discover bugs. I'd like to hear everyone else's thoughts on this.

  • I think a big problem in this game is that people main one side and are completely disconnected with the other side and how they play. Not saying you should play both 50/50 but maybe something like 70/30 etc.

  • Since the ruin rework, I've noticed that the killers remaining in the high ranks are exceptionally good and have forced me to improve how I played as a survivor. I'm seeing a lot of unique perk combinations I never really saw and it's making me rethink a lot of my own builds. When I play SWF (Much lower rank survivor players) I can tell that the average skill level of killers has also increased.

  • When does the "survivor found" and Chase begins? It's not when you simply stare at a survivor so I guess it is when a survivor is running and you look at their direction.

  • If so what is everyones opinion for both sides? 1 how hard is it with ruin vs without ruin? Do you use it now? 2 is the match making for killer side faster now? I'm at rank 16 cause I been playing origin games:) 3 did the complainers leave Or stay? Just wondering :) 4 what is your favorite change as both killer and survivor point of view?

  • I have three builds I switch between, but lately I'd like more, for memes, casual or just to laugh. My three builds are Tenacity, DH, Unbreakable, DS Pretty standard BUT I use it as late game if possible. Like exit gates opened and killer is standing above me with his timer ticking down. I always laugh when I pick myself up, and DH that swing. 2. Iron will, kindred, alert, quick and quiet. I

  • Another topic that I want to discuss in this forum and is nothing more and nothing less than the famous "2 dead and 2 escapes is a victory". Let's start! According to the devs it is considered that 2 dead and 2 escapes is a good game, a victory for the killer. Let's go deeper into this topic. "A player who plays killer starts the game begins the first search for a survivor, begins the persecu

  • Will the Development team please discuss at least ONE of the following in the matter of respect to the game and changes/fixes in their next QA: 1 ) The killer that camps the hook. Nobody runs borrowed time. 2 ) Survivors that unhook their team mates infront of the killer. 3 ) Slugging is the only strategy killers are using to pressure survivors off the generators. 4 ) The fact that BBQ

  • Please for the love of god, make the ruin a permanent status effect instead of a hex totem. The effect of ruin isn’t even drastic really, and with enough pressure the game can still be won by survivors with or without the ruin. Let me know what you guys think.

  • Just an idea I had. When introducing a new friend to the game, if I play SWF with them, they're going to get crushed going against a red-ranked killer. If they reverted matchmaking the way it was, the killer will get frustrated going against a red-ranked survivor, but what if that red-ranked survivor was handicapped? When you start your SWF group, let there be an option for the high-ranked sur

  • I don't know if there is a post of this already, but I think we all should share what we would like to have in the game at one place. So, what featured do you want to be added to Dead by Daylight? 1) Statistics tab. With the new MMR coming I would like to know how I perform compared to others in different things like chasing, gens etc. But I would also like to know other, smaller things like

  • Literally one of the worst experiences of my life I was playing spirit on nurses map (they offered a map offering) I was downing people pretty fast and I was trying to “pressure gens” but they just kept pushing out gens I couldn’t do anything and on top of that they loved to tbag I mean the devs really need to do something about gens and gen time it’s ridiculous at how fast they can go against a

  • I always see these threads and I see people posting their tier lists a lot. Here is my killer tier list, I was bored. Have fun. Pretty standard. Don't feel the need to explain anything other than I do not believe an F tier exists anymore. If there were an F tier it would just be Bubba because he is definitely the weakest killer in the game. EDIT 1: Just

  • For me: -Spirit Fury, it's complete BS (and boring to counter by throwing pallets like a rank 20) and it makes trash killers who can't loop actually feel like they're good at the game. -Sprint Burst. It's freaking annoying to go or sneak to a survivor only to have him sprint to a window or a pallet. It requires 0 skill and the reward is too much and it can't really be countered (though rarely I

  • What if for a new killer they add pyramid head from silent hill? I think thatd be cool and they can just have his power be something kinda like the onis except instead of dashing he swings the the giant knife back and forth and maybe his perks be Call of Crows which while working on gens the crows circle around the survivor(s) when the gen is at 75% and once the gen is finnished it shows the aura

  • So I have been playing DBD for a little over a year now on PS4, I had a daily ritual to do with Plague that took me quite a few matches to complete. In that past I saw myself as an alright player as I usually have ranks between 12 and 8, having reached red ranks only once. Each match I've been in pits me against SWF levels 4-1 it just makes the game completely unfun. I don't need a game wher

  • As killer that is, every game is stress and even if you kill all the match was not enjoyable at all. I dunno why they make these changes to killer gameplay when this is the result.

  • Except of course BloodPoints ones. All other offerings can be abused by swf teams for their own fun. But it is extremely unfun for Killers to play against: 4x Petrified Oaks bcs I am forced to slug 4x Mist offerings bcs I become blind Shrouds (except Vigo's) bcs gen rush happens 4x Luck bcs they kobe Heart Locket, The Last Mask, other map offerings (damn....)

  • Dead By Daylight is a 4V1 game. You need to have a much greater survivor population than killer population. By that, the survivor population needs to find the game to be as relaxing (not to stressful) and casual as possible to some degree so the likelihood of the player to come back is increased. This way the devs can maintain this 4/1 ratio. Too keep a higher survivor population you must try to

  • When will this actually happen, cause I can't play doctor at all due to my game going to ######### and me giving up when all gens get done as the FPS goes to #########, demogorgon FPS, Controller sensitivity just feels so slow at max. This is the most I actually ever needed this

  • I ask because as last survivor I have hardly much luck, but have been doing the thing where you wait at the gate and then as soon as killer closes hatch, I open the gate. Does not always work, but escape more this way than trying to find hatch. How about you guys?

  • And then you strike them into dying state, and hook them. This gives that last survivor a lot of hope that you are a friendly killer, just to take it all away in that same moment. The entity would feed greatly off that one exchange. By that fact alone the Killer should get big points for doing this.

  • I live in Russia near to China, thats why its nearly impossible to play Killers bcs people from China, Korea, Thailand, etc always have red ping and dodge my lobby. I've started to use VPN, finding game as Killer became possible, but... survivors became laggy. I use Windscribe. So, is using VPN for getting ability to play Killer is bannable?

Everything was ok, than she reached rank 16, and here we are with rank 9-10 survivora, or rank 17 with p3 swf going at that rank just to bully the killer. Result? After the 5-6th game totally bullied she looked at me and ask, why am i against thos g
