  • Hooking a survivor gives you a sense of focus. At the start of the match a dull totem becomes a hex. Everytime the killer hooks a survivor they gain a token. Each token reduces the killers terror radius. The effects of calm collection remain until the hex is destroyed. 1st hook = 1 token, the killers terror radius is reduced by 4/6/8meters 2nd hook = 2 tokens 8/12/16 meters 3rd hook = 3 toke

  • Each time you injure a survivor gain a token up to a maximum of 4. Each time you down a survivor lose a token. Whenever you start a chase gain a 3% movement speed boost for 1 second per token up to a maximum of 4 seconds. Afterwards this perk goes on a 40/30/20 second cooldown.

  • I've been experimenting with all sorts of perks recently and I've found that some perks that are rarely used or are of limited usefulness work really well with other perks. What "obscure" perk combos have you happened upon whilst playing?

  • I remember that in games like team fortress they did this thing of shrinking the head's model until it was almost invisible. SO how possible would be that for this game? Maybe shrink the head and cover the neck with some blood and flesh thing so it doesn't looks weird. and to avoid making head models for every cosmetic, the moris in which this would be used should be ones where the head get'

  • Trying to save an ally while the killer is camping can be very difficult, but I might have a solution for this. If the unhook progression bar is at 50% or higher, the killer cannot perform the interrupt action. Most killer players will just stand there and wait for you to start unhooking so they can pull you right off your teammate, but this feature will completely counter this. Feedback would be

  • Just an idea that could be neat even if it was an add on and not base power. What if when the legion does a successful chain hit on 4 survivors in feral frenzy. The fourth survivor is instead warned that they are the last potential victim and the exposed status is put on them. If feral frenzy connects then the survivor is put into the dying state.

  • The goal for these suggested changes is too better everyone’s experience in the game, and there are such perks that are available that I feel should be apart of the base kit of the game that both sides should be able to utilize without needing to equip said perks. Let’s start off with survivors... Survivors: Kindred, Wake Up (without the increase in exit gate open time), aftercare, and f

Seems Dbd optimizing is based only on processor performance, not on graphics, thats why i have max (?) graphics settings and 10-15 fps. It looks beatiful, but its not playable. My phone is galaxy a70

  • And the Clown is pretty much a unicorn, i finally found a wild Clown and i realized that i haven't seen Legion in weeks. A Legion nowadays is like an albino Leprachaun shitting on a pot of gold at the end of 2 crossing rainbows with reversed colors. Meanwhile i still get Billy 9/10 times. How does the balancing for fun turn out for you?

  • Would like to see John Carpenters The Thing as a killer. One of it's perks would be, Doppelganger, where the thing can transform into one of the survivors. Imagine doing a generator with the thing and then it gets you. Survivor, MacReady, and the map, a snow artic base just like the movie.

  • When she was released I thought she was a really creative and fun to play killer but I haven't run into a plague player in ages. Is it that she isn't up to par compared to other killers or more that few people own her DLC?

  • So curious... -- I've was given the impression... Way back when.. before these forums where even created, the Match Making took the average rank of the SWF group. Cause in the beginning, when SWF was released, it took the rank of the player who created the SWF lobby, which resulted in rank 1s, grouping up with a rank 20 survivor. If the rank 20 survivor created the SWF lobby, the match making

  • Title says it all: -Balance issues are more prevalent -No rewards for ranking up -Viable Killers are Nurse/Spirit/Maybe Billy all other Killers are at a disadvantage -SWF can destroy you unless you rely on no fun tactics, camping, tunneling, mori, etc. -Fun factor as non-viable Killer's is non existent Basically what I'm trying to say is, there is no incentive to rank up. Why should I stres

  • Would like to have new game modes. How about a mode where the survivors work together to complete a Easter egg to summon the entity to kill the killer for once. Kinda of like Call of Duty Easter Eggs. 1st step a survivor needs a map to locate a hidden room within the map. 2nd step, you need a key to unlock the room, 3rd step you need the flashlight to shine an orb to unlock the totem, 4th step yo

Everybody down under has seen or at least heard of the Wolf Creek films and recent cool Stan adaptation series. I know others have requested him in the past as a playable killer so help spread the word! I'd be in line to buy old Mick. See more of him here: https:

They can be silly or just cool. Here's two of mine! Also, is there a certain killer that tends to mori you the most? For me it's Nurse. (unfortunately.)

It seems like a relevent topic to necro, due to how the EGC works (last survivor ALWAYS has a chance for hatch now) But maybe it's because I actually have this mental illness, that I want to see it's game reflection make some sense.

  • I don't think it's fair, or fun to only play, or vs hillbilly, nurse, spirit, and sometimes huntress, only because they're the only viable killers that can apply enough pressure to stop genrush. Sure, you can play weaker killers for fun, but I know it's not fun to always loose. It's not fun to get looped for 2-3 gens either. Everyone hates nurse, but why? Because she is what a killer should be?

Here are a few things I'm interested in learning, or are concerned about as we go into PTB: How will perks like Discordance and Surveillance impact matches with Freddy? Seems like both will be extremely powerful with him. Was this taken into

  • I'm new to the game and the forums, currently rank 11. I just wrapped up a match and noticed that as a killer the survivors were ranked 11, 9, 8, and 4. It also took about 9 minutes for the lobby to spawn and another 5 to get it full. I started thinking about if these guys were playing together and using teamspeak, vent, discord, etc what perks they would not even need to bring to the match.

  • If you could change one thing (not an individual perk or killer power) what would it be? I'd like to see it so if the killer has someone and is taking them to the hook if they are within 3m or so they are able to hook regardless if someone is crouched below it.

  • If you're a killer who dodges lobbies because a prestige 1 Nea joins it, I'm going to make this very clear. Prestige does *not* define how good someone is at the game, if you want to be worried about survivors, worry about the ones wearing bright colours. I'm currently looking for a game and I have not been able to join a single one in over an hour because whenever someone wearing prestige joins,

    I like the idea behind the whole DS nerf but I really think it needs to be reconsidered. This whole 60 seconds to use thing is BS. What if I don't get saved, or what if I'm not seen again until the Endgame? It honestly should be reworked to "After being hooked or unhooking yourself the perk becomes active, the next time you're placed into the dying state you'll be given a skill check, etc etc bla

  • Its nice that the survival category finally gets sone love there is still another category that bugs me. Some Killers like the Plague still have a hard time making any real gains in the deviousness category. Can we give those the Pig treatment so you don't get out with 3k on a good match?

  • Just as the title states, I don't understand why? This is a asymmetrical game and you need a 4/1 ratio for it to work out. I play survivor more because the wait times for killer are very long. It takes me up to 15 minutes at times to get a killer game (a decent percentage of the time) and around 5-15 seconds to get a survivor game. I've played this game since 2017. I definitely get in the neighbo

Am I actually making my search longer by doing this? It seems to me that when I do it I get a lobby more quickly after retrying but I'm not sure if that's just my confirmation bias.
