This is just a thought of a game mode lol so here it goes.Its simple lets say kinda like the freddy vs. jason theme.2 killers,4-5 survivors(cant remember how man survivors there are i havent played in a while since i cant get a game as a killer)..Killers can hook each other on special hooks,same hooks for survivors.Opposing killer can also attack other killer holding a victim or steal the victim.1 comments 21 views last activity

Either the que is bugged or there are no killers. Or the majority of players are now PS4 and Xbox users. First time i waited 25 min at same rank on surv - also no crossplay. Got sick of waiting so left game. Came back a bit later and am now nearing the 40 min mark. At the first waiting period there were 16000 people playing. Now there are 21260 playing and i am still stuck in que. When do i sto3 comments 51 views last activity

When someone is hooked the entity block the hook so killers could leave to apply pressure on gens and maybe after 15 secs have passed since killer is at 32m of the hook it start the countdown.1 comments 21 views last activity

I feel like I need to start playing in a swf because it’s ridiculous at how bad some people i play with are.. in red ranks ..let me repeat that..in red ranks...going forward especially with these changes to rank I think it’s best to find a swf3 comments 71 views last activity

He seems fast and those bottles can be annoying when looping. Do you think he needs a nerf?17 comments 272 views last activity

First, their actual idea won’t work just watch ScottJund or listen to Tofu if you need an explanation of why “skill level,” can’t be figured out by an automated system. I don’t think they care though, this unknown skill algorithm along with hiding ranks will basically just allow them to throw all players of all ranks into games together and none of us will be able to prove that it was poor match0 comments 21 views last activity

Now, let me "present myself". I"m a killer main and a streamer, i have 2600hr in this game and wili i know i'm not the best or the one with most hrs, i think i have my 2 coin to toss in this discussion. I know that wile i dont really care about ranking, i dont like to be matched vs ppl who are gar abowe or under my level, cause i play conpetitively, when i play i want to win, my satisfaction is0 comments 21 views last activity

I guess...it's just a thought to the devs nerf any perk-meta used for 80% players on both sides what do u think? I think is also annoying perk for new killers players.103 comments 2,751 views last activity

the perk is all up to the survivors, cleanse totems . if you're solo queuing here are a few ways to counter it: 1. detectives hunch (is honestly a underrated perk and was in the shrine like last week) 2. small game (it may not show you where exactly the totems are but it will show you the direction) 3.start to memorize where the totems can spawn (spawn109 comments 1,631 views last activity

So with the recent announcement of a MMR style system coming into the game i want to voice my issue with this and how this will end up hurting not only the game health of dead by daylight but could all together take a chunk out of the player base if this is added. So the major thing that makes this system bad is the RNG that is very present within the game MMR is a system designed around skil0 comments 41 views last activity

For me, I would love to take the pipping system as a winning condition. But I feel like it is too hard for killers and too easy for survivor to pip. I'm just wondering what others think winning in Dbd is. (Also Devs please fix ranking system)28 comments 1,271 views last activity

I have to say that I really like the way this new matchmaking looks like, it is very close to how I feel it should work. It is based on skill but also experience and takes into account potential mistakes (different amount of skill points based on skill of enemys and yours skill). BUT there is one request that I think whole community will agree with: MATCHMAKING VALUES NEED TO REMAIN VISIBLE2 comments 62 views last activity

Instead of fixing the core problem once again (caugh caugh bloodlust) they are calling "hidden mmr" for new way to match people with equal skill. Yet they did the most BHVR thing by hiding all the evidence so people have no way of telling if there is even is any matching system in place. I dont know you guys, but knowing how BHVR likes their band aids instead of fixing core problem(s) I call the0 comments 11 views last activity

Let me preface it with none of this should affect normal rank. I'm thinking something like multiple killers and increased survivors, random builds on random picked survivors and killers, giant maps with an open exit gate on one end and a single survivor has to try to race or sneak to the exit against a killer, spirit but always have her power be active except when they attack, but give their basi0 comments 21 views last activity

It’s WAY too easy to find survivors with that. Probably the single best survivor locator in the game. I realize you still have to chase and catch but this solves half the equation with no effort. You can locate survivors once a minute. You can sort of counter by timing hiding in closets but it happens way too often. Only other real counter imo is gen rush, which sucks for solos. Whatever.

The way it will work is for survivors to do thee gens fast and for the killers to kill fast. So in the game will chose killer that can kill fast bill/nurse/oni and put them against survivors that do gens fast and the rest of the killer will be against survivors that can't do fast gens.0 comments 31 views last activity

How to counter Static Blast: Calm Spirit Lockers SB can be wasted for nothing, Doctor should use it carefully If Shocked by SB - just run away, Doctor has no speed, at Red Ranks he cannot chase you long if you are already far How to counter Shock Therapy He slows down massively, bcs of that he can waste so much time at safe pallets Dead Hard and any Sprint Burst like perk allow you to e11 comments 111 views last activity

With the new matchmaking, a new method will be used to match players. Currently survivor skill is measured as following": Repairs Escaping Not being downed Unhooking and healing When I mentally assess a survivor, I consider none of these when deciding who is going to cause me problems. Similarly, if I play survivor, I consider myself dominated when we all get chainsawed and slugged after8 comments 71 views last activity

Hello it me baby killer. Being more specific, I'm currently rank 14 killer and rank 7 survivor. I will preface this with I don't have a problem with ranks being hidden before a match. I will definitely say however, that it feels like them being hidden is a band aid for when match making doesn't do its job properly. cough.

Pardon my fantastic drawing skills but lemme explain Green = pallet Pink = Window Okay so this tile is EXTREMELY problematic especially on killers like GF, Clown, Or Plague because I mean you cant do anything until the windows blocked off or the survivor throws the pallet down early.

Do you other killers out there ever come out your bloodlust fueled frenzy for a moment after you've cornered the last little lost lamb and stop butchering to see what they will do? Sometimes instead of trying to follow their instincts and flee they accept their fate and submit.

Why do survivors keep their items and addons after escaping a match when killers lose them, doesn't matter how well they played? any reasons behind this? SEEMS VERY UNFAIR2 comments 31 views last activity

I'm a rank 7 that has recently decided to main clown, I constantly go up against mostly "Rank 4's" and kill them semi-consistently. This wasn't a problem until I hit rank 8-7. It doesn't matter if I win, It doesn't matter if I lose. I'm always told some variation of "Get better trash clown" or "God you suck, quit proxy camping." And every time I rebuke them with something like "I saw no one with22 comments 761 views last activity

I'm really looking forward to the new elo system, curious how it will work out. It will be interesting especially once the unique mmr for different killers will be introduced. But now as ranks are basically gone but for "bragging rights" and achievements, will there ever be rank rewards?Even if it's just a few thousand bloodpoints or whatever0 comments 21 views last activity

I have been missing my Freddy a lot. Like the delay on his snares isn't entirely life threatening, but like. I just want the smooth game-play and don't really want to play him till it's back.

you could waste every pallet you ever run to as a survivor, and 3 gens will get done by the time you get hit and you still have half the pallets lol. so many tool boxes and prove thyself cause its so quick.22 comments 341 views last activity

I mean, my confidence in them is shaky at best; but I want this to work out so badly. This game is SO much fun when the matches are fair, close, and intense. They almost never are though, you usually know in the first 60 seconds if it's going to be a win or a loss, and most matches are curbstomps in one way or the other; where one side feels pretty much hopeless.

As a rank one survivor I am having a field day constantly going against green and yellow ranked killers. This most recent matchmaking change you guys have done has been amazing to this beautiful community and game. I just wanted to tell you guys to keep it up because 5 minute games have been a blast and nearly every killer I've went against in the last week have told me they want to kill themselv3 comments 81 views last activity

So, what does everyone think about the matchmaking and ranking changes that were posted recently and that will be coming to dbd soon? I'm honestly excited to see if this actually solves all the issues with the broken matchmaking and the terrible ranking system.

With ranks being removed for the determining factor on matching making, how will match making work exactly? i think lobby with the same skill group is or rank is still the best. Not throwing us all together. So is this just to save queue times? Because I see it going very bad for new and lower skilled players.0 comments 41 views last activity

So I've been playing this game for 40 hours now, which I know means nothing in this community besides "Hey look you sort of understand what to do now". 20 of which was spent on survivor, and the other 20 on killer, naturally leaning towards killer because doing gens all day is just boring.

https://youtu.be/R98e-Y4Lu8w its scary to say that survivors are becoming almost as powerful as they used to be , never as much considering pallet nerf and flashlight nerf but still gen speed combined with a ton of loops yeah , thanks cote for the making game but I’d like to see if you would have fun as killer today73 comments 1,911 views last activity

Hi all. After being inspired to collect my own data for 100 games for survivor solo/swf and killer, I got to it almost immediately. Anyway, I wanted to show a truly horrendous sight. And this brings me back to one of my older arguments in the week. Which was, if someone recalls, that the base gen speeds may be fine, but the maps favoring one side the most is not, and this is the MAIN reason why0 comments 31 views last activity

I'm a measly rank 8....why do I only get survivors 5,6,7 ranks above? Since I hit rank 10, this has been the norm. Again...just looking for the short answer and didn't want to read though 5 pages of people giving opinions. Just want to know, yes or no; Is the current match making system working as intended?2 comments 41 views last activity

So they already have a working version of the hidden skill rating system. They are gonna to start tracking skills in the live version of the game. This means they have already come up with how to determine skill for survivor/killer. They will be making tweaks here and there based on the live data.

as a killer I usually get near 100,000 BP in a round. I always get at least 60,000. As survivor, I only break 20,000 if I escape. why is this? why do killer rounds give 4x the points? someone told me it's because there are 4 survivors and they get equal points to one killer, split amongst the 4 of them. THAT IS ABSURD? IS THAT REALLY TRUE? Because we are all individuals and if killers mak5 comments 61 views last activity

People are always contemplating how to even out either side. Nerf this, buff that. Remove this item, replace this one. What if we didn't mess with perks at all or items My question is. How game changing would it be if survivor POV was made to first person. The same as a killers.

I really understand that slow-down builds are very annoying and boring to go against, I know why Jump Rope, Swing Chains and Outdoor Rope were changed, but... they are useless. By themselves these add-ons are trash (2%, 4% penalty.. in the damn Dream World, really?!) Why will I use Outdoor Rope with 2% slow-down by itself if I can bring Nancy’s Sketch, Green Dress which are much more useful? W5 comments 381 views last activity

This will mostly be directed to the Killer mains who have preven to be the most upset, as the outcry has snowballed from actual feedback to just plain nonsensical insulting. *Survivors whined about Spirit and Nurse and they were gutted! - Yes, they were.

I see a lot of people talking about this on the forums and I think that people might be overlooking an aspect of the debate. Killers are all unique with their own powers while survivors are just reskins of each other. Because of this, seemingly useless perks on some killers are valuable on others. For example, Thanataphobia is almost useless on Michael Myers since the entire purpose of his power1 comments 41 views last activity

Today I was playing with a friend, and we joined with 2 other people who also played SWF. It was a game with the doctor, everything was going well. My friend died and I was alone with the other two, and I only needed a hook to die. Suddenly when one of them was in a chase, the killer stopped chasing him and started chasing me. The others made me body block me so that the killer can hit me. When I2 comments 41 views last activity

I just finished a game as a Doctor and I was insta blind by a flashlight. There was only one flashlight with 2 batteries addons and I went insta blind.

*edit added in* Why not just have certain perks not available until certain Killer/Survivor Ranks? Aka, no old ruin within the 11-20 category. Same with no DS, BT etc. The better you get, the more perks? Or the better you get the less perks you can use? Maybe even less or more perk slots?
