Does it end tomorrow as on the 7th or on the 8th? I only have 13 tiers left and I need to know when it’s going to end so I can figure out if I still have time to grind or if I have to go ahead and buy the rest. also, completely off-topic.. kate needs a new outfit 🥺3 comments 761 views last activity

You can see with the designer notes that they state that the doctor and ruin changes were made so it wasn't as frustrating to play against. Proof that the devs are only looking at and balancing around the survivor side of the game.4 comments 71 views last activity

Thank you BHVR! ONE OF MY BIGGEST PET PEEVES OF THIS GAME!!! GEN TAPPING!!10 comments 191 views last activity

Given the game is already losing killers by the droves I guess bhvr thought nerfing ruin was the best idea? I mean this will further destroy que times with less killers leading to extremely long que times therefor killing the game.0 comments 21 views last activity

First of all, it definitely is a nerf. Survivor mains claiming it’s not or telling Killer mains to stop being babies are being toxic and biased. Currently at Rank 2 (solo) and it already feels like I escape around 70% of the time and half of those escapes are “5 gens in 5 minutes” matches. If you guys are going to make Ruin less effective at the beginning and more effective at the end (which pret10 comments 341 views last activity

Let them see how their metrics change once Ruin is gone. You all know how Ruin is in practice: There's a chance they'll spawn on top of it and it'll be pointless to bring in the first place. There's a chance it'll extend the game significantly. There is no practical way to measure its influence on game balance. Now that it's gone they'll see just how broken things can be without it.0 comments 21 views last activity

First of all, i play Killer and Survivor equaly, and i try my best to always look at topics like that very neutral. Topic: Some people say they "buffed" ruin, but from a theoretical standpoint, this is more a nerf to it. First of all, its super weak in the early game for obvious reasons, especially when survivor split up, The Killer can not chase them away from Gens and good Survivor will jus0 comments 21 views last activity

So this is wrong on many levels. One is the fact that getting ruin 1 now is pointless its literally a waste of a perk slot, its doing 1 times the normal regression rate. So the normal regression rate. Why would this be a thing? For two, why not add the original values of 3/4/5 % regression? The new values are hardly a change. For 3, it is a hex perk, no hex perk should ever be balanced nerfed or1 comments 61 views last activity

Splinters no longer appear in blood webs. This is a good change and I fully support it because despite owning all the content in the game I still get splinters for Myers in my killer bloodwebs. Splinters are disabled. This I don't support as much. I think that if you have them, you should still be able to use them. The only reason I could see for this change is a technical one, as maybe this11 comments 71 views last activity

Wraiths Bell is too obnoxious, easy to use with no survivor input. = Take Bell Away Hags traps forces survivors cameras to focus on trap and hag clone follows survivors direction. = remove that Myers jumpscares = remove grabs I don't know how many Hatchets huntress has left. = Reduce capacity to 1 Just Freddy = Remove from realm Legions deep Wounds is annoying to deal with = Make them a sur0 comments 11 views last activity

So I'm at the gym, taking a real liquidy protein ######### and of course that makes me think of Dead By Daylight and then I see the update, and then the forum with the usual rank 12 survivors praising a killer nerd, killer mains losing their mind and people that play both at high rank trying to be objective mediators. Here's my thought, we know a rank 12 survivors will never agree with a killer8 comments 51 views last activity

after the ruin changes every match will b 5 minutes long at best i really dont understand why are they making such changes ?for emblems ?? those are broken either way .... the gen rush will be super real now u should have buff the ruin not nerf it LMAO i have no worlds my god also there should be fun in this game right ??where would that be ??can some one explain that to me?3 comments 31 views last activity

This is a 100% serious question. Outside of making money, what exactly do you want for the game? Are killers over performing? Most people will agree that survivors are the power role in the game right now, especially SWF. You have 8 killers performing under a 65% kill rate right now. All of your current reworks and patches have been aimed at survivor fun and reducing killer kill rates, and I am c0 comments 21 views last activity

Ruin is getting changed... And you still haven't tried it yet... BUT THE SKY IS FALLING!!!! You know... I've gotten angry at this game... at the Devs.... But seriously.... About 90% of the first two pages of the discussion group is all about killers not wanting Ruin changed. Making up everything they can do prevent it from changing. LUL Come on! Let us try it first...

I mostly play survivor and swf and reading the reasons for the doctor rework hurt me. Ive played a fair bit of doc and my gf mains him. The issues of doc were that he was relatively slow and switching stances only made it worse. He has his treatment grabs and that's about it. Yes the passive maddness tiering is annoying, but that just means you have to adapt! Passive maddnes meant you can't j5 comments 91 views last activity

In any player vs player that has any sort of progression it will allways be harder to make it easy for new players, specially when the game contains soo many perks a new player has to learn about The best options you can give a new player is either -Make a better tutorial -Make the grind easier for new players But please don't change powers and perks to accomodate new players Decisive strike2 comments 11 views last activity

I've looked at the upcoming updates, I just don't understand the reason for them. It appears that they are balancing the game around new players, but DBD doesn't take long to learn compared to other games. There are many tutorials on youtube, which are easy for new players to learn. I started playing in July 2018, I got to rank 1 both as a survivor and as a killer in September 2018. at that point2 comments 41 views last activity

Everyone knows that Hex Ruin right now is an essential perk which you need to compete at the very highest level in dbd. Even if you disagree, you know there's a lot of people who think exactly that. People will not want to play killer because they will have less chance of success. When people don't play killer and are instead playing survivor or not at all, finding killers will be an issue in0 comments 31 views last activity

Why not just keep ruin the same with regression on good SC but get rid of the pause to carry on progMaybe increase the % to 6/7 maybe. If need be. But the most annoying part is the fact after the regression theres a pause before the gen starts to progress again. This game needs something to slow gen speed, not help regression. Or just make gens take longer. Surv main here btw, they are making it too easy for surv overtime. The only thing I find "unfun" against killers is when it doesn't look0 comments 11 views last activity

No survivor mains "rose up" to get ruin nerfed. There was hardly an outcry. What is their plan? The devs are killing their own game.14 comments 181 views last activity

After hearing about new changes coming soon I decided to go check up on the new announcement myself... And boy what a mess this is. I'm glad with the doctor changes, don't get me wrong on that. I believe it's great he's being reworked since he IS frustrating to play as, and against. But then hell broke loose... Hex: ruin changes. 80% usage in red ranks, does it surprise anyone? Of course not. Eve0 comments 20 views last activity

never seen so many crybabies as i have about this ruin change. if you're a good killer you can 4k any match . edit : anyone saying "you'll have longer wait times" you're not that important and many NON crybabies will still be there . you wont be missed and you're not important31 comments 721 views last activity

Nerfing Ruin seems to be deliberately going against the consensus of people that play the game that gens get done far too quickly. This Nerf has not been brought in alongside changes to gen times or a general change for regression. Generators should regress much more quickly if they are not being worked on anyway. Gens should require a regular skillcheck to be completed before regression is hal0 comments 11 views last activity

So now snapping out of it is so much easier. This is a huge nerf. The pressure of finding a safe spot to snap out of it is gone. You can now piece by piece snap out of it WHILE LOOPING the doctor. Madness 3 the pinnacle of doctors powers is a joke now. (oh yeah and they are removing his exhaustion addons) EDIT- i just read Snapping out of it takes you all the way to madness 1 now..... madness11 comments 331 views last activity

As a killer main who's played since day one... I wont continue after the changes. Red rank 4k's continue to be borderline impossible for most killers. If 90% run it it should be a base change to the mode! Slow gen repair time and make them automatically regress slowly and make skillchecks harder to do I've not seen a gen explode in red ranks in months If you care oh so much about survivors just5 comments 91 views last activity

If you follow the account leaks by daylight you may or may not have seen images of the patch notes for tomorrow.... Why are the known issues already typed up? We're they not bugs they couldn't iron out in time? How the heck do you make it so that you can't vault over ONE specific pallet in lerrys as legion? If your gonna have bugs like that....

Yea, I’m aware it’s a strategy ever since EGC came out, but the problem is people have seen it and now assume it’s correct to always 99 the gates when sometimes it’s best just to open them. Sometimes a survivor, or yourself is being chased and literally can’t afford that half second to go out of your way and click the door. Sometimes both gates are at 99 with two survivors at each so no one kno21 comments 451 views last activity

Ruin has always been a save pick for me as killer. As much as selfcare an ds was for me as survivor. I no longer play selfcare because its way to inefficient thanks to the healing nerfs. i run a medkit now or another perk that helps me healing without wasting to much time on it. Unbreakable has taken its place now. DS. Why would i not run it. Be honest. Its OP and devs dont nerf it so why don1 comments 11 views last activity

As someone who plays both sides about 50% right now I really think if the Ruin change was exactly how they described but it became permanent, no Hex, it would be perfect. Maybe they could even change it from 2 times normal to 1 times normal regression.4 comments 41 views last activity

Seriously, this kind of lunacy shows incredible bias towards Survivors. There has not been a single Killer buff in the game since Ghostface, Freddy got nerfed, Nurse got nerfed, Oni got nerfed less than a week after release. Doctor and Ruin are getting nerfed because... beginner survivors have trouble with them? Beginner survivors have trouble with everything in the game, that's the idea of bei25 comments 681 views last activity

So we got a ruin nerf and a doctor “change” which caters to new survivors and survivors enjoyment yet no update on the killer sound bug which has been happening for awhile now. Nice.0 comments 21 views last activity

Killers are already going against 4 survivors and the other survivors can easily tap the generator while you're in a chase to stop the regression, I am a survivor main but to me this is bs, like how much easier are you making it? And even if people that are new go against it? They have the choice to play on their own, why are they making it so easy to pip for survivors.7 comments 141 views last activity

Pick the killer in question being nerfed to hell, this case doctor. Equipt the perk vdibf nerfed to hell. Ruin. And do nothing but que up for lobbies and be "afk" most of the match and open the exit doors. It's easy, mindless and won't help inflate the kill rate which could incite those in charge of balancing to think - "kill ratio high? Nerf more" (you know.

And people are mentioning how streamers like scorpionz ex. do well without ruin.. the thing is that not anybody do streaming for life, not anybody is pro, not every killer has a slowdown ability like pig.. where are the killer noob frendly changes?i know there are others slow down perk like thana, sloppy,pop but none of them is consistent against good survivors who rush through gens into adrenali0 comments 11 views last activity

Devs: "We want to make this game fun for the players" Killers: "What about us?" Devs: "Oh no, not you." At this point I just have no more faith in the Devs. They are actively pushing away the killer player base and apparently don't notice or simply don't care. God forbid a killer is fun or a perk is reliable. They put more effort into nerfing killers and perks than they do fixing the bugs they2 comments 61 views last activity

When the devs said consistently that they did not EVER want to split the community, but now it seems like its the opposite. They are working actively to split the community by only catering to new players on the survivor role to have "fun". And never addressing "unfun" aspects of killers and high rank players.

I haven't made a dedicated slugging build yet, but seeing as Ruin can't give me thirty seconds of breathing room anymore, gotta make due somehow. I know Knockout is a must, but what other perks would work? Could use some ideas here.9 comments 231 views last activity

Understandably so though Ruin was kinda known as a perk that was needed to prevent the survivors from just destroying you which sometimes would get found instantly. Now it HAS to survive to get any purpose pretty much AT ALL. Its got some good synergy with stuff like thrilling tremors and survelliance don't get me wrong but its still pretty bad.6 comments 81 views last activity
