  • I'm trying to set up a killer with only totem perks. I'm thinking it should be someone who can at least try to defend the totems but also is strong enough to still stand a chance if they get destroyed. Right now I'm leaning towards the plague...thoughts?

  • Currently sitting in what is a 15min + (Not a joke) queue time, and as many can relate, when are queue times atleast bareable?

  • Turn it off already. Please. It's pissing me off as survivor equally as killer.

  • Can't get a killer lobby to do a daily or finish the two killer challenges I have left on the Tome. Fun. Waiting for 10-15 plus minutes to get nothing. Survivor at rank 5 is the same for me and then I do get a lobby and it's like 200 plus ping. Can this please be addressed? It happens far too much for what's apparently a thriving game.

  • After 5 games in a row as Killer, 1 survivor is guaranteed to be camping the hatch. Now don't get me wrong, I'm all for a survivor escaping via the hatch, but when they're allowing a hooked survivor to die just so they can escape and keep their pips, its low. Survivor mains all complain about killers camping them on hook, but they're all good for a nice pitched tent at a hatch? It's serious doubl

  • Currently the matchmaking doesn't limit the difference in rank between you and the other players if you're between rank 20 and 16. If I'm going to play against rank 10+ at rank 18, just remove the beginner ranks and the "no depip" rule, then at least the queue times will be shorter. I didn't wait longer than my current shortest queue time (6 min) for this match so I'd like to believe that the ra

  • Is that a new thing for this update? No indication of the killer having NOED usually it has this big thump to reveal that the killer has NOED and it just shows a Cursed symbol instead of the Exposed skull icon.

  • There is almost no counter play you just turn as a bot for the spirit to hook you 3 times easily. this is boring and i might dc each time i see her. fix this BHVR it is unfun.

  • Being able to BT yourself and go for some big plays is actually really fun. I never used it to pick up teammates before the rework (only ever used syringes for pickups), so it doesn't feel like we lost anything with the new effect. The BT effect is a pretty significant buff from gaining a health state since chainsaws and exposed hits don't bring you down. Pretty dang cool if you ask me.

  • After completing the 1st level of Tome I, I selected "Select Challenge" on the sidebar when not in The Archives, and was taken not to the 1st level, but the 4th. It won't let me complete challenges, but I can still view them! I can't really take a screenshot, but the challenges are as follows (left to right): Top This is Happening | Survivor Master Cha

  • I know the popular strategy is not to cleanse because then plague is just an M1 killer but there are times it makes sense. At end game if two of you can cleanse to go after an unhook it may be safer. Middle of the game if there’s no gens in one area, and it’s a big map, cleansing there may be okay because the plague walking over wastes time and walking back to find people will eat up a chunk of

  • The Rift's UI is atrocious. There's so much empty deadspace that could've been filled with the rest of the tiers in a single line or something extra. Instead it's just this awkward, empty orange background. I know this is a very very very minor nitpick but this is one of the things that has been bugging me a lot ever since The Rift has gone live. I know

  • I'd much rather prefer a stable, good optimized game without bugs and constant crashes instead of these pointless events and new killers every 3 months. Think about it, devs.

  • Currently when you burn the petals offering you lose all the bloodpoints you would get from the event. Basically rendering the entire event useless. While I am completely enjoying the double bloodpoints id really like the actual event to work

  • The Nurse's Add-On Review isn't bad. The Nurse's power is good. You need to think about your strategy, not SpAmInG BlINkS. Add-Ons are not bad (maybe just the Ultra Rare) She needs only few tweaks in her add-ons. fight me. I MEAN - LET'S DISCUSS ABOUT HER.

  • After re-watching and reading his memory and cut-scene multiple times, I have a feeling that he will be the next killer He injected himself with a small dose of the serum at the end of the cutscene and in "Memory 1750" it mentions that The Alchemist would return to the trials just to get the flowers again, and that he would tear survivors and killers apart just for that feeling again, and

  • If I decide to buy the paid version of it, will I instantly gain the progress up until where I currently sit in the free track? Or will I have two different tracks in different places going at once?

  • Ok so I'm playing killer and a dumb survivor decided to start teabagging me so I chase them, long story short I catch them and down them but then they dc. And in a chat they said that they won because I didn't hook them. How does that make any sense? It literally says when you go to dc that you are taking a defeat.

  • A game as Trapper without add-on. Walked close to this single door room, heard the Gen so I enter the room. First thing to do is add a trap at the door, then slay them. Best moment 1 DC instantly 1 tbag so I tunneled to death 1 hooked but not be saved, died 1 I gave him the hatch

  • guess I have to make a point... I challenge the devs to 10 match’s. they can stream it as proof this is totally doable. in those 10 match’s the dev they choose at the start of the match must get 3 safe unhooks during egc. they can use w/e they want as far as items and perks hell they can bring back old instant heals for this if they want. i will be playing my main wraith. i will not be us

  • why second wind doesn't activate if you heal with a medkit?? " to gain more points" aaand to heal a little faster. sorry if the word faster annoys some killer mains but trust me with all these resident sleeper perks and add ons being added to the game.. ( dying light - thana- sloppy ) I dont think healing a team mate couple seconds faster is an issue. whats the point behind it?? is the perk OP

  • dear devs, thank you all for the hard work you're putting I honestly appreciate all these events and new cool stuff which is taking alot of effort <3 I have couple of points : 1- please fix ghostface detection bulls.h.i.t. its so inconsistent 2- make the killers aura show ( when not using insidious) if the killer is crouching for more than 10 seconds within 16 m waiting someone to come sa

  • It's been happening really often after the patch, but basically any time I leave a match, most of the time it happens when I'm playing survivor, it wont tale me back to the lobby screen and itll instead keep me on the dbd logo just loading over and over for eternity, I have to close the game and open it again to stop it. Anyways, I was just wondering if anyone else has been having this problem or

  • If you don't know what im talking about, there was a trick that allowed you to get on pile of straw, then lunge and attack a survivor who jumped over window in the up-right corner. This could be used by experienced killers to get hits sometimes. Since this update the whole trick can't be done anymore. And i don't know what was the reason behind this cha

  • Believe it or not I actually have used and activated post nerf MoM. Recently I have activated it vs a legion, but getting hit by frenzy does not trigger the endurance status though I am injured. The deep wound status effect I suppose prevents that status from appearing because the need to mend seems to be important, even though I am being chased at the same time, rendering the deep wound effect a

  • In two consecutive matches, I charged EW2 right up to the last millimetre, then as I catch up on a survivor, sprang up to EW3 and stabbed away. Only to see the survivor sprinting away in wounded state. What? I then saw I got rewound a little back to EW2 . It already flashed the tier status and played the merry tier-up music; how can that happen?

  • Please remove these terms, I've played for 1800 hours and still struggle to understand what the numbers are for certain addons, like clowns etc. I'd rather have numbers, it's a lot easier for veterans but new players aswell. They'll know exactly how much time they're getting reduced on cooldowns for example.# It's time for a change, this will be a massive QOL change!

  • I love hearing ways to counter her so please do drop em. But ive been running iron will for so long now and i dont continue running when she phases but almost everytime i still get caught because she can see the blood puddles i believe or they just gets dumb lucky and its purely because we cant see her. The footsteps thing isnt useful because if im hearing it im getting hit. Prayer beads need to

  • There is a number of posts about how Spine Chill now counters all Killers in the game and is due to be meta. It is a rather decent perk and is able to do a lot for Survivors, but it is one that fell OUT of meta once before. Spine Chill once was a pure meta perk, so why did it stop being meta? Killers can counter Spine Chill. Premonition has no counter, but Spin Chill does! Back at launch Wra
