I'm only a rank 10 killer not because I suck but because I don't have time to play a ton. But I keep getting paired with rank 1-6 survivors constantly. People who play the game a ton more than I do. It's kinda ridiculous any solutions?5 comments 41 views last activity

What is the most ridiculous, absurd, or otherwise baffling accusation you've ever gotten in the game, as either Killer or Survivor? Feel free to share several if you've got some doozy stories. Today, I was accused of poor sportsmanship for using my power too much as Doctor, by a SWF group of Rank 1's, in a match that I lost. I once got a complaint from another Survivor that I wasn't being a "22 comments 181 views last activity

In order to deal with the giant Ruin nerf, killers have had to change their playstyles in order to compensate for the new found ease of genrushing. I've tested out a few things like different perk builds, but what's proven to be most effective isn't perks, but slugging and especially tunneling. I never played using those tactics before because they just ruined the fun of the game for a number of36 comments 1,721 views last activity

Will we ever get a fix considering a lot of people started having the issue again after 3.5 I am getting increasingly frustrated that nothing has been done about it and the known issues doesn't include it. This doesn't just affect me when on survivor but on killer as well by forcing me to go to the loading screen for the main menu every game I do well/poorly. If I safety pip I don't get kicked f0 comments 11 views last activity

as title say, there should be a mode which doesnt have ranks, you can use all perks at tier 3 and all addons and offerings, less xp and bp gained, allows you to select the map and literally a custom game with randoms so the game would feel way more fresh and fun for those who feels the game is frustraiting.5 comments 52 views last activity

I know this is just another vent post but this has really annoyed me tonight. So I get gen rushed and end up hooking someone who got cocky at the gate. The hook was directly in front of the exit gate so it was either I stay by them or I let everyone escape and depip/lose BP. I had to face camp and ended up getting a 1k. The person messages me and I apologise. I don't normally play like that, I8 comments 211 views last activity

I was playing Billy Boy to get one of the archives done and ended up getting Lery's. The entity spared me no mercy. The survivor's ran to windows. I lost a bit of my soul. Gotta love Billy on that map lol As either role, what's your least favorite map? I love Lery's new design, but as most killers, I hate it. As survivor, my least fave is hopkins. Love the way it looks but I am not good on it1 comments 21 views last activity

Footsteps, even normal breathing, grunts of pain etc. Everything can be heard even with several meters of distance. Why do some killers pretend that sounds are gone? https://youtu.be/zex7eP30BjM I found this Claudette outpositioned twice during this match due to her normal breathing (which is even noticeable when watching this on my phone).

I don’t know how many times I see killers saying self care needs a nerf, it doesn't it’s a ######### perk that takes 32 seconds to heal if all 4 survivors are running this perk they are going to be busy healing, self care is a survivor perk crutch you do not need it38 comments 1,952 views last activity

Hello DBD Community, First off i would like to say that I love playing DBD. Ever since one of my friends introduced me to it in September 2018, I have put in 600 hours of play time. I play both survivor and killer evenly and I don’t really main anyone (maybe that’s my problem?). I am currently a rank 9 Killer and after playing 10 terrible rounds in a row, I am left feeling so disappointed that22 comments 832 views last activity

The idea of a free escape is SO stupid. I think if you find the hatch before the killer does is fine you know cause it's luck, but just needing an ITEM to escape is really stupid. If you want to escape, work for it or rely on your own luck via hatch. Keys should be GONE! Slugging for the 4k is annoying enough and to do that, find the hatch, close it, and STILL not get the last player because of a6 comments 51 views last activity

Okay so, how does stuff get calculated? Is there going to be a baseline average among all players for various categories? Which your performance against those global averages applies to your individual skill rating? So lets say global chase average is 40 seconds. Killer ends it in 35. He will get a slight boost in his skill rating? The survivor would lose some skill rating, but maybe gets a pall6 comments 41 views last activity

There needs to be a punishment for a killer that allows all survivors to escape. The entity should kill the killer for losing. Yay or nay?0 comments 21 views last activity

The new match making system do nothing but only hide our rank. Here is the reason. How can hide rank system decide you win or not? Is it emblem system again? If it is. What's the different between old and new except it would not reset. If it isn't. Why not just rework the emblem system? So if new matchmakeing system do nothing different. Why does it even exist?

Survivors: Why does it take so long to find a game? *finally gets in lobby* Survivors: *Equip toolboxes* Killer: Aight I’m out This game is being ruined by Survivors lol. Most of you are the ones screaming for nerfs against killers after one of the biggest changes I’ve experienced towards killers (Ruin). Killers deal with 2-3 Gens being popped before or shortly after their first hook.3 comments 41 views last activity

I started doing challenges for the rift as survivor and I gotta say, I was able to find all 5 totems and cleanse them, search through 2 chests, finish 1 Gen and everyone escaped. It's not even an award at this point, I'm able to hide well since the maps have become darker and I slap on iron will.3 comments 41 views last activity

1) how will disconnects affect the MMR of the DCer and the rest of the team / killer? 2) for survivors: is the game considered a team game, or a solo game ? Meaning: what's more important, to survive or to complete objectives a-la emblem system? 3) for killers: again, it's a 4v1 or a 1v(1+1+1+1)? Should we slug every time for a 4k, just in case the one that gets the hatch is an0 comments 21 views last activity

It's actuall dog #########. Like it has zero effect on gameplay and is a training wheels add on. If the devs can make the flannel a common for nurse, they can make this common for the oni. Like I'm begging someone to prove me wrong. I want this add on to be good but its pure #########. And here i was thinking bubba's chili addons suck1 comments 11 views last activity

I know that will solely depend on permission from the owners if possible, but seeing particular animatics/lore featuring some licensed killers would be very interesting. Ghost Face would probably be the most flexible, considering the lore half of the killer was entirely original on your team's part. I only ask if this will ever happen?6 comments 91 views last activity

I'm tired of hate equipping this cosmetic because even though it's rare, it looks awful. All the cosmetic team would need to do is re-skin it, since it's already a re-skin of Kate's base body.1 comments 41 views last activity

Balance around TRUE red ranks/optimal players: I KNOW I KNOW. This has been said a million times. But the game has to be balanced around what's POSSIBLE rather than what happens on AVERAGE. Just because survivors don't run toolboxes EVERY match or killers don't bring a mori EVERY match, does not mean that in the case in which they do decide to, the other side should just expect to take it in the0 comments 11 views last activity

If devs scaled up speed for everyone, chases would still be the same but killers could actually pressure gens on huge maps since the distance would remain the same.0 comments 31 views last activity

It’s not about you getting the kills or if you escape that makes you a good player. It’s about how Well you played the game and how you got there. Some of you mediocre survivors and killers think you are big hot shot GOAT at the game, BUT you are not. Come at me if you want, but that’s just fact.

————————————————————— As said on stream, the reasons as to why Ruin is still a Hex perk, is because: Hag’s perks are all Hex perks If it wasn’t, it would need to be toned down ————————————————————— The second reason I understand, because Hexes are meant to be powerful perks that can be lost. That being said, I would much prefer Ruin being a stand24 comments 511 views last activity

I've played quite a bit of survivor in the last few months - not that I prefer playing survivor, I just wanted to play with my BF and we unfortunately don't have KWF yet lul. One thing I see way too often is people escaping unbroken while some of their teammates die or people having their first hook when everyone else is dead. Let's make something clear.

Why was optimizing not addressed on the Doctor rework before putting it on consoles? The frame rate drops to -1 when you're 5 minutes in a game. Notifications on the Xbox has always been an issue and there's too much for the system to handle apparently when you use his power and the framerate never recovers.5 comments 61 views last activity

Hey everyone. I would like to share some observations that I made regarding the adjustments that Doctor's Shock received as of the 3.5.0 live update. Doctor's Shock Therapy attack (M2) takes 1 second to charge, and Doctor moves at 3.08m/s during that time. After that he enters a 1.5 second cooldown, during which he moves at a regular Killer speed of 4.6m/s. That means that he covers a distan0 comments 101 views last activity

You know how your game's community is known as being toxic? You know how you like to nerf things that are frustrating? Why do moris and by extension keys exist? Why can I spend minutes of my life in queue, even more waiting for potato computers to load, just so I can get into a match where I get hooked right away, sandbagged by a teammate who unhooks me in front of the killer without borrowed0 comments 21 views last activity

Waiting nearly 15 minutes for a survivor match and I finally give up knowing I'll get a insta queue switching to killer. So I switch to killer ready up and not even 5 seconds in I get a freaking match. Cool. Great. Guess I'll never play survivor again. Have they discussed this issue somewhere, are they working on this.

As scott already pointed out most of things that pretty much rule out any viable rank matchmaking of the game I have one that pretty much sums it up. How do you want to match players based on match history if you take these games into the account: Game 1: Perkless clown vs 4man swf with unbreakable, DS, adrenaline combo with syringes or comodious toolboxes or keys on Temple map Game 2: Iri h1 comments 11 views last activity

I see pallets right next to eachother in LoS, it seems anywhere where a pallet CAN spawn there is one. and because of this pallet freddy LITERALLY can't even use his power for pretty much the entire game, because when he does break 1 pallet and replace it with his own, the odds of a survivor using that 1 pallet is low because there is like 50 other pallets in the map to use. remember when the19 comments 551 views last activity

I feel like a game mode that randomize builds + items would be pretty entertaining and a mix up for the current state of the game. No strategic planning, completely RNG for both sides as far as perks and add ons go. No limitation to what a player has unlocked.1 comments 11 views last activity

So watching their new Q&A, I have a better appreciation for their decision to change Hex: Ruin. At first, I was totally against it & did not think it was a good change during the PTB. I did see this as a way to just make things easier & less annoying for survivors (which basically this is still the case whether it was fully intended to be this way). Yes, I still am a believer that gen15 comments 541 views last activity

So it has been 8 months since DBD became included in the Xbox game pass in may of 2019. what I'm wondering is how much that has either helped or hurt the player base on console for DBD. while the tracker was for steam DBD's player base jumped 4k more players in may of 2019 compared to the month before. May also happens to be the month they dropped the ghost face trailer the day before DBD was add1 comments 101 views last activity

I feel like the wiggling effects do practically nothing since it's so easy to counter it. Also, I feel like the aura cancelling range needs to be increased since it's easy to find hooks on the map. It would be cool if it increased wiggling speed like Breakout does too.6 comments 61 views last activity

Just got out of a game with Legion, feeling a bit frustrated, so I apologize if this seems biased, it probably is. I'm just not sure what I am supposed to do at this point. The Survivors sent me to a Coldwind map, I thought, "well, alright, we'll see what I can do." I got Rotten Fields, fun times. Corrupt helped a little, the Survivors mostly hid, I finally found someone and hit them with FF. F45 comments 821 views last activity
