I think it would be fitting, both for the horror of the game and the player playing killer, if survivors can be one shot in the exit gates. If they have been waiting in the vicinity (so survivors can’t camp outside the gate to avoid penalty) to taunt the killer and they get downed in the exit gates, the Entity should also close the exit for them so they can’t sit at the edge and escape like that8 comments 201 views last activity

Well it is official, we need a new mask for the Michael movie, and we need it now, and we could also use a little change in the music that plays for the different levels of Evil Within. If we cannot get this, then I will be shocked and disappointed, and many others will be too.4 comments 101 views last activity

For some reason everytime I try to make a post it uploads twice. I don't know how to delete threads so sorry. Is the optimization patch going to fix framerate issues? I don't know much about technology. But when I play killer (rank 5 atm) grabs don't work right. The animation will start but then my character swings and hits the gen. Super annoying. Will the optimization patch fix this?5 comments 161 views last activity

I'm on ps4. It sucks when this happens and this is by no means a 100% way to end it but it gives a shot. If killer, stand still, don't move. No matter what do not move until you see the survivor jump. This doesn't always work but sometimes they think you are doing something else and risk it (Just did this and got a salty message lol). If survivor, message killer. Add them to a group and then immed7 comments 182 views last activity

Which killer would you like to see in the game?23 comments 221 views last activity

With the team sending out a small vague spoiler for chapter 11. Wondering what about chapter 10 the next one. Ussually they focus on one killer at a time. But they will come back to a character there creating if they get a licensed character. Think they got the design ready and then got word of a killer they can work on. So then they pushed that killer to chapter 11. Why would you talk about a kil45 comments 3,941 views last activity

if you just tap your phase walk ability, the survivor has a white blink before they disappear, you can use this to just locate immersed survivors since their white blink is different than any other texture on the map. Just used this for a 2 man hatch standoff by just phasing while on a hill.7 comments 241 views last activity

dwellers of the fog, hear me. I’m trying think of the most ideal teammate build which focuses on every aspect of the game, not specifically carting, gen rush, totem hunting, etc. here’s what I got. Bond - You need to know where the team is at. Emphaty is nice to have late game but its not as versitile as Bond imo. You have awareness up to 36 feet around you. That can help you time and act if yo4 comments 971 views last activity

I really like the recent perk reworks the devs made. It made a lot of weak perks more fun. However, there are a couple of other perks that I think need a rework. But give your opinion wither these are good or bad reworks. Surveillance - Original: Unlocks potential in one's Aura reading ability.

basically its a super no mither "you have suffered many times in your trials" user shares a deep bond with the entity so they feel their past faliures survivor gains the deaths door effect deaths door you are injured and cannot be healed a dark aura permeates your soul your aura can never be revealed by either killer nor survivor your numbness to the pain allows you to step lightly scra5 comments 111 views last activity

I really want to hear your opinions on this. Which Killer is the most fun to play against? I'm not concerned about balance, I'm talking pure enjoyment and tension - what Killer do you find makes for the most interesting opponent? I'm working on a Killer concept and so I want to know what makes Killer fun to play against to ensure that the concept will be as good as possible.

Alright so here is the blunt of this discussion/idea: What if Rank for killers was tied to individual killers instead of them altogether. Hear me out at the very least. So recently I got to rank 1 mainly with Myers and Wraith and It's completely put a sledge in my ability to play almost any other killers as their levels and my skills with them just doesn't match Rank 1 play.

So when playing as survivor this works perfectly, when playing as killer it does not. As survivor I can see my other 3 teammates and the killer I was playing against shortly after the match. When I play killer I can't see the survivors I played against listed there, ever. Is that intended or a bug? If it is intended why?0 comments 21 views last activity

15-20 games played today, 100% NOED. After it's ridiculously unneeded buff to cause EXPOSED on every tier, when should we expect to just become baseline for every killer? Just like Self Care, almost any killer worth their salt knows that there is ZERO reason NOT to take NOED now, especially since some genius made it so that you only need tier 1 to receive the only benefit this perk is eve92 comments 1,701 views last activity

I propose this: Ranks 20 -15 will be only one, a "Bronze Rank*". Ranks 14 -8 will be only a "Gold Rank*". Ranks 7-1 will be only a "Diamond Rank*". And: Don't do rank resets. Each rank will have its own "Levels*" that you go through with pips. Bronze Rank: Has 2 levels, each has 4 pips to complete. Golden Rank: Has 3 levels, each has 5 pips to complete. Diamond Rank: Has only one level, to maint4 comments 81 views last activity

On the recent devstream, hard numbers were given on the distance a survivor gets from the killer when taking a turn around an obstacle, given in meters per second. So for every turn around an obstacle in a loop a survivor takes, the survivor increases the distance to the killer by 0.4 meters per second. Where the killer is 0.6s faster in a straight line so looping is HEAVILY in favor of the survi48 comments 571 views last activity

Will he ever get some better cosmetics? The "Frontier Miner" one that came out with the new cosmetics patch was kind of underwhelming. Especially when you compare it to all the other killer outfits that came out at the same time Examples being the trapper's "Strong Man", The Wraith's "Wax Warlock", or The Nurse's Bridal outfits. Hill Billy did finally get a pretty good one "Blood Thirsty1 comments 31 views last activity

ok dwight has 48 cosmetics, meg has 54, claudete has 48, and jake has 42. i mean jake is a little low and at the same level as ace but then you see nea at 40, feng at 37, david at 37. and i understand that kate and adam are going to be low since they just came out not that long ago but come on guys stop adding more cosmetics to the high ones and start showing more love to the others.33 comments 421 views last activity

why even have this stupid mechanic/ when everyone uses macro to do it.. Not sure what sneaky update they did but my macro mouse freezes up when im playing as killer.. which is weird since i dont have any macros for killer.. it freezes up at random times.. this wasnt happening before last patch.. if disable macros and put the settings to default i experience no such freeze.. i dont want to use mac23 comments 321 views last activity

Hello, I have 2 killers at P1, 2 at P2, the rest at P3 50. The next focus will be equipping all the Killers with their recommended Perk layouts. Obviously everyone needs BBQ, but what others sit well with which killers. I believe Doctor works with Distressing and Unnerving Presence, but what others work nicely with other killers? Many thanks!8 comments 451 views last activity

i depipped back to rank 20 and im just staying their between 15 and 20 because the games are more enjoyable for me. i have been a high rank killer before and the constant looping and flashlights were too much trouble to deal with in casual play. is this an ethical practice or am i a horrible person?19 comments 241 views last activity

Please don't just crawl around under the hooked survivor? Is there a reason you might want to? I can't unhook, and heal you at the same time. It really ties up 1 more person than it should. If I can get you on your feet, you can do gens, or rescue, or get healed. Or I can unhook the person you're crawling under and you may not get hooked immediately? Then the unhooked person can help us li5 comments 221 views last activity

So, I just want this topic to be about brainstorming new and interesting motivations behind why killers are driven to kill. I always enjoyed reading the killer bios and seeing how their back stories played a role into shaping them into what they became. With that said, let's explore a few areas that I don't think have been done yet and would be appreciated: Th instrument of justice/righteou8 comments 91 views last activity

Everyone is constantly complaining about Decisive Strike it is too strong. Or it would not be fun to play against the perk. Arguments like first having to hit the wiggle DS, arguments like counterperks, arguments like dribbling are all not worth mentioning. But the Noed can easily be destroyed, that's argument enough to say that the perk is perfect in the current progress of the game? Nerfing thi42 comments 401 views last activity

I think there is still A LOT to do for this game, and many ways to improve it. In the long run, it gets more repetitive than it should be, with killers tunneling survivors until they die, from the moment they are found, and survivors trying to escape, until their chase ends on a hook. So, here I have a few ideas which I think would make the game better, some about gameplay, some just about inte39 comments 391 views last activity

Having a bit of a panic here as the event just ended and the last vial I collected didn't get counted when the game ended and now i'm stuck with 29 vials when i'm 100% sure it was full. Is there any hope to have the vial compensated or something as I rushed to earn these and am irate that i'm missing out on the full outfit because of a technicality.5 comments 71 views last activity

Hi, this is my first post and I don't know where I should post this, because it isn't a wish, is a thing that in my opinion devs should change or take a look. I really like the game and i can see all the effort they've put on making this game as immersive as possible, but when i played against freddie i noticed something weird, when you hide in a locker and freddie opens it, the survivor goes to10 comments 131 views last activity

Hi Everyone! I would say most people agree blocking a fellow survivor in a doorway for the killer or dropping a pallet in front of another survivor would be considered sandbagging. I would also say most people would agree that an instant save or saving while the killer is right next to the hook is sandbagging. My question is unhooking someone before they go into struggle or die. I am tal3 comments 121 views last activity

So, the developers don't wanna add voice comms to both solo Q survivors and SWF. We will need a way to bring both parties up to strength so the developers can nerf them both at the same time instead of making one side more stronger than another when they throw a general nerf to survivors.

Someone else has so many stuttering and freezes recently aswell? It's insane today, whenever the killer M1 the first time or any other random action it freezes for 1-2 seconds. It's really gamebreaking right now. We have these lags due to the bad engine, but I'm not used to get so many lately. I restarted my pc and let steam checking the dbd files.

I know the devs have been trying to get a new objective for survivors/ killers and think this should tie into their income system for skins and shrine. Survivors will have 2 Iridescent veins that they have use a toolbox to gather faster, killers can also gain shards from 4 special hooks and basement hooks and survivors can "sabo" to just gather shards, the hooks will remain active.

Remember Me is a pretty useful perk for the end game, but what if Remember Me also delays when the hatch opens normally (without a key)? That would be an up to 30 second delay from when the second-to-last survivor dies to when the hatch opens. When they roll out the hatch closing mechanic, this would only work the first time the hatch is opened normally, not after the killer closes the hatch.7 comments 171 views last activity

Hi, people of the fog. I know the Devs already gave us two weeks to enjoy The Halloween Blight. Sadly, I'm too busy at work to enjoy the event these two weeks...
