Whenever he zaps I cannot see anything, It screws me up constantly because I can't see the generator timer skill check and of course it causes me to fail the check. It is really annoying in my opinion and feels like an extra leg up than other killers. I would advise reducing the area that the zap covers on screen because it is very hard to complete objectives when I can't see and I am constantly18 comments 322 views last activity

You really think pig is going to be able to maintain the gatekeeper badge as good as the plague or billy? That’s the only thing that’s making pipping so difficult right now killer side. Preventing the survivors from doing as many gens as possible for nine minutes instead of focusing on kills is a pretty counterintuitive and forced objective for a killer. It literally means you have to get lu2 comments 52 views last activity

I'm level 12 and last night I got 3 matches of out 5 that had the following: Other survivors levels 5, 5 & 6. Killer level 2. Other survivors levels 8, 8, 11. Killer level 2. Other survivors levels 5, 5, 9. Killer level 2. How can I be matched with 3 different level 2 killers out of 5 matches? The wait to get in those matches wasn't even that long, a few minutes at most. Is this hap3 comments 42 views last activity

No way to aim your bottle throws properly.(Lack of any aiming crosshair) Slow as hell. Just when you think you know where your bottle is going to land it flies waaay the hell off in the distance. And they call him "intermediate" difficulty?! He's basically a killer without a damned power!15 comments 462 views last activity

I was just wondering if stridor effects the volume when the survivors are sick and/or vomiting. I only have rank 1 of stridor and I felt it did slightly but was wondering if anyone else has tried this and got results.5 comments 1,272 views last activity

Okay, let's suppose you normally play killer and have a good amount of experience in survivor as well. What perks should you run to maximize your chance of surviving AND ranking up as survivor. There's only one rule restricting what perks you can pick: at least one of the perks MUST be Kindred. So what have you guys got?13 comments 3,672 views last activity

I’ll go first. When I play killer and a survivor disconnects on me when hit or carried, I add their username to a list I keep. When I start matches, I consult my list. If a listed disconnector joins, someone who has already proven to waste my time, I waste theirs. I’ll wait until there are 6 seconds in the countdown and then lobby dodge! Petty? Yes Satisfying? You better believe it!81 comments 1,263 views last activity

The devs have a really full plate right now. They're working on dedicated servers, a Switch port, performance enhancements, entire character reworks (Freddy/Legion rework & Add-On passes), along with keeping up consistent bug fixes and new chapters. I'd assume the devs will have much much more time to work on game balance AFTER the Switch & Dedicated servers release around mid to late7 comments 82 views last activity

For the update regarding the matchmaking: https://forum.deadbydaylight.com/en/discussion/54397/matchmaking-update#latest However, I still have two major issues with the current situation that I would like to see addressed: why did it take so long for a statement regarding the matchmaking to come out, considering that it made it impossible for high rank players to get a game (example: EU regi0 comments 102 views last activity

The game was 100% perfect for every single individual? that EVERYTHING you wanted nerfed, buffed etc etc was perfect.....that the devs specifically designed the game, surv or killer or both just for YOU, personally. Would you still play it? would it even be a challenge any more? would you have fun or as much, would you be frustrated? if there was nothing left to whine about would this game even b5 comments 62 views last activity

After stunning the killer leave no scratch-marks for 6 seconds. You better respect that pallet boi! 🤔 🤔 🤔 🤔 Knowing the devs the only way for Houdini to activate is to cleanse a totem, finish a gen, point emote 3 times and search a chest with exhaustion after activation since we can't have any more viable meta perks now without arbitrary requirements making them14 comments 222 views last activity

In the PTR it was instant hit detection, now I've done literal full streams at survivors a short distance away(barely 3 meters) and they don't get touched! The fuick is going on? did they nerf her vomit distance to 1 meter or something?!3 comments 262 views last activity

What would be the up and downside of removing a hook state? Would the game become more easy? Would it be more exciting because there is more on the line after one hook? Would it promote camping or would it be better to hook as many as possible? What are your opinions?10 comments 182 views last activity

This is a very simple idea for buffing the points for giving the killer the old shinobi. There's already code in the game that counts how long you are in the killers TR without triggering a chase. I think that every 15 seconds in the TR without a chase, your point tick for staying in the tr will increase. And the base points should be brought up. This behavior should be awarded, not discoura7 comments 102 views last activity

Since the reset I am now a rank 13 and I can’t seem to pip when almost all my team mates DC or can’t do a generator for deal life or just die in minutes . How can I pip or be better with people like this ? How do any of you deal with it ? Edit: I’m on Xbox BTW4 comments 92 views last activity

What is this dodge rate today, no joke, almost every lobby is a dodge now and it hurts, dodging because you are scared of survivor swf shows that you target weaker prey, which is slightly sad7 comments 102 views last activity

Basically makes it so all totems are lit to the survivors. If you have a hex perk, then the killer will see that hex’s aura as red, and inactive ones as yellow. When a survivor cleanses any totem, all survivors hear the destroyed sound and any hex-related debuffs they have disappear until they’re triggered again. Thoughts?0 comments 12 views last activity

In public matches, sacrifice all survivors before the last generator is repaired, 15 times if they disconnect does that mean its a failed attempt? it wont count as a sacrifice? also do the survivors have to die by hook only no mori to count?2 comments 112 views last activity

Along with the new pipping changes, it seems as though they’ve also changed the requirements for the adept killer achievements/ trophies (or so I have heard). You actually have to get a merciless killing (double pip) to earn the achievement. I’ll probably wait until rank reset. My question is how difficult is it to actually double pip in green/yellow ranks?12 comments 212 views last activity

50% at tier 3? the purpose of tenacity is that you want to crawl away from killer as fast as possible so they don't pick you up I mean, recovery rate can stay the same at 50%, but crawl speed definitely should increase11 comments 412 views last activity

When the killer comes around I do my best to do one of 2 things: 1. Run the killer around to give my team time to do objectives like totems and generators 2. Try to win the chase by using mind games and/or skill However even if I perfectly run the killer I usually end up getting significantly less BP even though I did what I would call an important job. I get it; objectives should matter the18 comments 202 views last activity

Obviously a lot of people dont like the new ds rework and I thought of maybe a better solution to what it currently is Decisive Strike . Using whatever is at hand, you stab at your aggressor in an ultimate attempt to escape. After being unhooked or unhooking yourself, Decisive Strike will become active and usable for 40/50/60 seconds. If hit within 10/15/20 seconds after Decisive Strike is us25 comments 274 views last activity

ya ya I know what you are gonna say dead hard doesent need a rework but I thought it would be way better to change it so instead of being invulnerable for the split second it would be cool if it could stun the killer like a rugby tackle kind of obviously would work the same way but instead you would be vulnerable for the dash Idk just thought it makes better sense because david is a big guy and a8 comments 232 views last activity

... and due to NOED and Gen rushing being perceived as problems, would it not make sense that for every totem on the map remaining, a 1% (or 1.5%, or whatever's balanced) addition time is added for all Gen's still remaining on the map. This means with all 5 totems up, each gen now needs 5% more repairing. Waddya think?6 comments 72 views last activity

Matchmaking is a mess. Only people on are complete noobs who get matched against me (rank 1 killer), or 1k+hour hardcore, tryhard survivors running Adrenaline and Balanced Landing, and run map offerings where they can exploit bad loops (######### you Crotus). Nothing's fun anymore. I can't even run meme builds without getting Adrenawinned by players who know how run perfectly around every jungl10 comments 222 views last activity
