  • I can't even be happy or feel stress relief after getting 4k or 3k because of the amount of ######### this game throws at me, auto aim, loops you can't mind game, god loops, gen times etc etc I had to play a red mori game just to make myself feel better They are killers for god sakes, not a test dummy for survivors

All these maps, some potentially, some always have overpowered windows making the killers feel helpless af. Someone will tell: "Just run Bamboozle and everything will be alright" - WHY I HAVE TO USE ENTIRE PERK SLOT TO POTENTIALLY FIX POOR MAP DESIGN? 2) Mother's Dwelling, Templ

  • https://youtu.be/fRm-UnW1S2k So, today I was playing against a regular team. They were doing fine and we were playing the game normally. I got blinded a few times, all was well at the ironworks of misery. Then, I get blinded at a regular ol' pallet near the KS, and the blindness went away... For around 5 seconds. Then the blindness came back, at 100% forever. You can see m

  • Lately i've been noticing a bug as killer and it's really annoying. The last generator will get completed, and then all 3 of the remaining generators will pop with the bubble icon, and then when the exit switches show up in their bubbles an explosion notification will happen next to both switches. It's really confusing as killer because I don't know if there's actually someone there or not. Any

  • This is just an idea but whenever I hear about people in this community talking about how they should nerf these 3 subjects it doesn't allow fairness in my eyes. First, they should make a decisive strike work when a recently hooked survivor gets off a hook and try to go for an objective. Sabotaging, doing generators, totems, and fully healed it would immediately deactivate the perk except if th

  • People make posts about how negative post chat is for them sometimes. So lets talk about how they can also be a positive experience. I'll share one of mine: had a match where 2 died and me and another solo escaped. Nobody was salty at all and admitted that they all played well and how they had fun during the match. Continued chatting for awhile until we all decided to add each other and play at a

  • In DBD there are perks and add-ons to counter nearly anything the other side can throw at you. From that aspect you can correctly claim this game is balanced. There is legitimately a way to counter nearly everything. However, having potential counters to everything does not equate to balance in matches themselves. Take a Ghostface set up for all the stealth he can offer that ends up in a match

  • He's not -that- strong. Not so strong he needs that dreaded word "rework." He's stable. You have to learn how to finesse with that chainsaw, otherwise he's just as useless as a day 1 trapper main. He has been the same practically since the game came out? So whats with the NERF BILLY, REWORK BILLY talk? Honestly it's starting to seem like people are grasping for straws almost like knee jerk po

  • I'm going for the "Six Feet Under" challenge (sacrifice all four survivors in the basement in a single match) and the amount of times I've been robbed of completing it is ridiculously stupid. Someone DCs when I'm about to death hook them. Amazing, now I wasted my time. Except this has happened more than once. I love when I can't even complete challenges because other people simply rob me of the

  • So this new ban people who leave lobby thing wouldn't piss me off so much were it not for the fact that it doesn't take into account people who get disconnected at the loading in to game portion. I don't know why, but this happens to me at least a few times a night when playing. Why can't they make it so if you DC before you gain control of your character you don't get the penalty? Stupid to puni

  • 15% faster vault at the expense of canceling the lunge and commiting to a direction? ie pig, demo, legion, possibly myers with his ultra lunge, and billy/bubba with their chainsaws. would allow some cool new movement tech. Also i know this is more a suggestion then anything but i wanna know how this would be broken? expecially on someone such as pig/legion or demo.

  • Currently some of the more well known second chance perks in the game are decisive strike and mettle of man both of which give the player a second chance and waste a lot of the killers time. Decisive strike counters tunneling either forcing the killer to slug for 60 seconds or endure the stun either way it wastes a lot of time and can be used aggressively to pull off saves that would otherwise be

  • So I found a really good combo where you can get this done in 1 game if everything goes well. 2 Perks required: Nemesis, Furtive Chase. If you find the obsession first. Awesome! Get them down and hook them. Now your obsession is on the hook. 2 things can happen. If you find someone else you can force them to pallet stun you by lunging in for a hit and making them drop the pallet and now you hav

  • I don't like conplaning about things I don't have a suggestion or solution for, and the ranking system in dbd is obviously...not great. This reset feels particuarly harsh to me because I recently got to rank 10 and was having a lot of fun as survivor. I'm not great at the game, colorblind with slow Wi-Fi, but y'know i can play. Simce reset I feel like im stuck at 15 because of my teammates. Its

  • The below numbers are solid, but they would obviously be subject to change via testing. • The time it takes to fully repair a generator is reduced to 32 seconds and a fully repaired generator becomes powered . • A Power Supply progress bar will appear on the top right of all players screens. • It takes 1,200 Power Supply points to fully fill the Power Supply bar. • The Power Supply bar

I ask this question because I'm completely stumped. I went from hating him when they first started to actually liking the killer. As a survivor I always thought he was overpowered (my friend and I thought he was just absurdly fast. It was just my min

  • If you don't know, the new level of the tome had three new pages, which showed off potential new characters, a killer and a survivor. The survivor was a girl living in a cult devoted to the Entity, trying to stop a ritualistic sacrifice before being taken into the fog. The killer was a farmgirl who lured men by promising to marry them, before taking their life savings and feeding them to the pi

  • I got all the lore tidbits in all of the tomes. I'm pretty happy with them. Challenges weren't nearly as bad as I thought they'd be. I'm not much of a completionist so it'll be fun and visit other challenges left over, but outside of a few hiccups (Decisive Light) it was fun. Revelations makes me look forward to the next Tome!

  • I've been playing as The Clown today and every time I'm close to someone after hitting them with my tonic, my frames dip to single digits and it's terrible. Any chance of this getting fixed soon because I know for a fact if I'm seeing it, the survivors are too and honestly that's not exactly fair to them, ya know?

  • Just played 3 games where I was using the Honing Stone on Trapper for challenges. 2/3 games, the trapped survivors could still escape the traps and run off without being put into the dying state. The other match, it worked fine for some reason. Not sure why. I'd suggest not using the honing stone until this gets resolved. Sadly, it's one of the best tools for these challenges.

  • So Legion's Feral Fenzy nerf, like Myers' Tier 1 nerf, was ultimately just for the sake of consistency. To make it easier to understand what a basic attack is, Feral Frenzy no longer triggers perks that activate with basic attacks. I don't think consistency is necessarily a good thing if it's not for a specific and good reason. Feel free to discuss.

  • I am all for DC penalties against the crybabies who DC on first down, but do you realize that they will just let themselves die on first hook instead? The only people who are going to be getting bans are people DCing for a legitimate reason. The other day a Nurse got stuck in a rock and she couldn't teleport out. So I guess someone like that gets a ban. Oh, by the way, if your game decides to c

  • Back in the day Halo 3 makers Bungie tried to implement a timeout penalty similar to what DBD is doing now. Basically after so many "quits" you would receive a timeout penalty and wouldn't be allowed to enter matchmaking. Bungie encountered the same problem as users of DBD have. You go to start a game and then you freeze on loading, forcing you to force kill the game. In Halo 3 you would get th
