It appears like they are testing dedicated severs for xbox currently. Up until yesterday green ping for all matches at 91. Since the rift went offline, all ping has been up to 150-200. Everyone has been getting the same thing. Even though at times the ping is almost red there is little lag, meaning it's most likely the dedicated servers. Has anyone else been experiencing the same?7 comments 91 views last activity

Please, playing almost every killer is painful. The map is too dark, and there are so many LoS breakers. Playing killers like Nurse, Huntress, and Spirit really suffer the most. Hopefully some map balance will come soon! We need map lighting and sizes to be relooked.1 comments 41 views last activity

I like what it tried to do unless I had the wrong idea. I thought it helped against tunneling but i feel like babysitter is useless if the killer is near. I just need to know do people actually run babysitter most of the time.7 comments 81 views last activity

In my opinion at this point behavior doesnt know what kind of game they want dbd to be. They've kept their god awful ranking system since the games release but then work against it by "balancing" their game around being "fun" [for survivors]. They want any aspect if skill stripped away in favor of a casual party game that newer players can still have fun with. Also the gap between new and old pla2 comments 51 views last activity

So I returned (just to check him out), luck had it, he was my second matchup. Now what the flip is that power? I get he absorbs blood and becomes a slower Billy, but my god, he's so creepy. Those roars, his ability to counter windows, insane. Also his idle roar when he goes into flames scared the crap out of me. Nice job on designing devs, he looks incredible. Also, how do I counter him? Prope5 comments 191 views last activity

If they removed certain handholding perks for a season and fixed certain bs loops that certain clicky clicky annoying survivors run to everytime you give chase you would be able to see which survivors were genuinely good and which were frauds cloaked behind second chance perks. You can really see which is the power role when you've got survivors running to the killer daring then to chase cause2 comments 41 views last activity

The real reason killers mains despise SWF or adrenaline or toolboxes so much is that they loathe the game being balanced around 2 kills and 2 escapes per game. (Ideally.) They ignore that just as 3-4 escapes per game balance would screw over killer players and be messed up, balancing for 3-4 kills per game would screw over survivor players and be messed68 comments 2,241 views last activity

Even thought I think Doctor changes were not that necessary, I am really glad Ruin has been reworked. After spending 500+ hours in DbD skillchecks became of a little problem, but my two friends, that were following this game and waiting for a discount are having a real bad time with introduction. Every game it's ruin, ruin, ruin, ruin and not only it's just boring to sit for twice as much on a ge3 comments 91 views last activity

How will you all be marking the occasion? I think before the patch I'll burn a lerys offering as doc and watch over the totem for the duration, giving it a few respectful zaps. Then the best dressed survivor will be permitted to give it one last smash. Unless they break it before I can attend the ceremony and they all get slugged and left to bleed out.0 comments 11 views last activity

I was just playing and had 2 challenges left. One to escape as Nancy and 1 to get 4 downs with the chainsaw with Bubba. I go to killer side and use Bubba but realize the challenge is gone. I haven't used Bubba at all today. Never had that happen before, ps i didn't get the bp either.1 comments 11 views last activity

Depending on the number of “activated” pistons, the repair will be different: 0-24% 10 seconds to complete Skill Check trigger chance is 5% Bloodpoints gained at 40 BP per charge (max is 400 BP) 25-49% 18 seconds to complete Skill Check trigger chance is 15% Bloodpoints gained at 50 BP per charge (max is 900 BP) 50-74% 27 seconds to complete Skill Check trigger chance is 25% Bloo0 comments 41 views last activity

I know, this is an online competitive game, it can't exist without people who would make it their life goal to ruin your mood. But there are a lot of online competitive games and a lot of players describe the DBD community as the worst. Why do you think this game contains THAT much toxic players?8 comments 101 views last activity

Give survivors something to do after death. The reason they dc when down is because they dont care... The reason wait times are so long for survivors but instant for killers All the nerfs on killers leans on 2 escapes. Heck the hatch opens for the last person to just hop out of there locker and win Give players something to do, like a ghost that floats around and affects the trail in a mi0 comments 21 views last activity

One of the best stealth perks in the game,iron will is the best perk to use in order to break line of sight in loops while injured. Really useful and pulls its weight and more. How about you. Do you use iron will? Let me know down below16 comments 3,111 views last activity

Not saying its a flawless idea but... what would be the worst that could happen if ruin didn't have a totem with the new changes? maybe make regression speed to 100% instead of 200% but no totem?

Hi, Wraith-only guy here who has had the same build for about a year and finally got out of that comfort zone some months ago. You got any great tips on Wraith-Perk (build) suggestions?

In mid-day time, it's incredibly easy to get survivor matches, and incredibly hard for killer matches. At night, it's hard to get survivor matches but easy to get killer matches? What is this? It's really weird.2 comments 31 views last activity

For me its not because he is strong or weak or annoying, NO! Its because he is not a doctor! When the doctor was released my first thought was: "#########? Thats not a doctor!" His power does not fit a doctor, he doesnt use any instruments that a doctor would use and he does not look like a doctor (######### is the vanilla outfit? why did he remove his sleeves? was he part of a bike gang?).

To the devs: Do you believe that the current state of generator speed is fine? It's possible for a killer to traverse the entire length of a map just in time to see the first gen be completed by a group of survivors. Is this ok even as an outlier situation?34 comments 531 views last activity

Otz is a great killer, but I've read people saying "oh, well, but how does Otz win without ruin then?". He also struggles without ruin, A LOT. This is the kind of game all killers will be facing from now on, since you can't tunnel (DS) to do your objectives faster and Adrenaline will still be a frustrating thing for killers. Also, you can't expect every killer to be like Otz, that's the problem79 comments 2,971 views last activity

With the removal of Ruin skill checks comes the removal of some skill expression as Survivor (being able to consistently hit hex skill checks). I'm not gonna say Survivor is too easy because there are plenty of Killer players that demand my best gameplay. But my problem is my "best" isn't exactly demanding. The skill ceiling for Survivor is relatively low. Chases are probably the best method o1 comments 51 views last activity

Is it knowing that certain loops are safe like the coal tower and to just constantly run them? Well. It's not exactly demanding if people at rank 13 are doing it constantly. Is it knowing how to not 3 gen yourselves? Well. If 4 survivors are Alive at that point it's a game of attrition that isn't that hard to play. If 3 or 2 are Alive you get your free escapes with a key Is it playing un50 comments 991 views last activity

Since every killer plays a bit different and you can't effectively fast derank as killer, what if there was an option for the player to toggle an overall killer rank (for achievments or whatever) and ranks for unique killers? They wouldn't need to reset the unique ranks or even let them derank to a certain point/timeframe so matchmaking wouldn't suffer but it would solve problems for having fun19 comments 251 views last activity

So I started testing out with different killers how long matches last with no tunneling and camping. On Average, without Ruin, all Gens we finished in about 6 minutes with one survivor bringing in a toolbox and other survivors bringing in misc. Items. All escaped and I was playing clown with no perks. First hook cost me 3 gens. Another game I played as Trapper and 2 gens popped before I set10 comments 1,513 views last activity

Hi i played as killer and when a survivor slow vaulted a pallet i grabbed her, but when i was going to hook her i couldnt do anything and just walk around with her and i couldnt use my power i couldnt destroy pallets, the other survivors tried to help me by stunning me with pallets but at the end of the match i had to dc because survivors are better than killers and killers are just eating dirt e1 comments 42 views last activity

In light of all the recent ruin rework controversy I think this might be a good time to rework hex perks in general. I think it is pretty safe to say that all of us have been in a match where a survivor spawns next a hex totem and it gets cleansed before the killer even had a chance to run over to it. What if instead of a hex perk randomly being assigned to a dull totem, the killer got to pick wh0 comments 21 views last activity

I was toxic when it came to having a bad beginning in my games. I felt frustrated playing against certain killers. I thought ruin and NOED were completely unfair. That being said, I feel I have grown as a survivor. After playing solo and having my fair share of teammates DC on me I rarely DC anymore. I'm not perfect, but if I am downed in the first minute I have stopped DC'ing. Watchi2 comments 71 views last activity

In the last month or two there's been a lot of negative posts about people saying they are going to up and drop DbD! Many of these posts are just general complaints, but others do lay out good criticisms. I'm in a bit of a rut aswell and have been for the last few weeks.

Sick of seeing all the people crying over a crutch perk being nerfed and saying there quitting.

My favorite and most annoying perk in general. FD is so frustrating to go against since you have to find the item that you dropped and have to spend time searching it.

So generally everyone seems to agree that gens get done too fast, and that ruin is annoying as hell pre-nerf. How about something like this? As basekit, all generators progress 20% slower for the first 90 seconds of the match? Then the slowdown goes away. Make ruin do something else entirely. Gets rid of the annoyance of being forced to either hit great skills checks ornfind a totem, and hel8 comments 51 views last activity

What if Doc, Clown, Plague, Legion had an ability to teleport fire barrels around the map. It would have a minute maybe 2 of cooldown, they could teleport only from one barrel to another. After activating this ability they'd slowly manifest(kind of like Freddy) at the barrels they are going to. This can't be cancelled, can't be used in chase and the barrels which have a hooked survivor in 20 m ra3 comments 61 views last activity

All Hex totems start as dull totems but their abilities still work. This would greatly increase the odds of the totem surviving and make late game Hex totems, such as Hex: the Third Seal, more viable. Note that the only the Hex perk that is really ran is Hex Ruin. The other Hex perks are not ran because they take too long to have impact but have a high risk of being cleansed before then. Survivor3 comments 61 views last activity

In my opinion this is probably one of the most broken aspects of the game, I was I believe rank 5 or so when I stopped playing in either September or October for a break I'm now rank 17, and being matched up against completely new players. This is a massive problem for me. If I play to win I am going to absolutely ruin their experience and time, but if I don't play to win I'll be stuck in the8 comments 732 views last activity

It would be a neat idea if the developers would take a daring look at the now revitilized similar game "Last year" and get inspired by its giant spider killer that takes a step away from the typical humanoid killers. I know it would be a lot of work, but damn would it be cool. I would love to see a new killer that resembles nothing of a human form.

I genuinely want to try this PTB out, but it is so broken that I cannot find any amount of enjoyment from playing it. It's almost impossible to reach a bronze gatekeeper emblem, the servers are awful, my fps is lower than usual, sometimes I just don't have a lunge, and so on. I really hope the PTB becomes playable soon so I can actually try out the changes.7 comments 121 views last activity

Not being sarcastic at all, I had nat issues before and couldn't connect to most lobbies, now its fine. Also my ps4 slim couldn't host well and would make one or two survivors lag hard in my killer games. My internet is 50mbps up/down fiber for those curious, midwest USA.

So, does anyone have this problem? The last time they did an update for the Oni I lost my P3 bloody clothes for my survivors. And I haven't got them back.
