  • Hey everyone, I’ve been playing this game for years and have clocked around 3,000 hours in the trial. Lately, I've been thinking a lot about game pacing, specifically how frustrating it is when matches fly by in literally 4 minutes. Right now, killers are practically forced to stack four slowdown perks just to have a chance to play the video game, which completely destroys perk variety and crea

  • Not whatever judgement is. It should've been saved for a spider killer chapter but ofc it's 8 legs and not 4 legs.

  • Perk1: The nearest exhausted, non-oblivious, survivor within 32 meters of you gains the oblivious status effect. The effect lasts for as long as the survivor remains exhausted. This perk goes on cooldown for 15 seconds. Perk 2: The nearest Oblivious, non-blind, survivor within 32 meters of you gains Blindness. The effect lasts for as long as the survivor remains Oblivious. This effect doe

  • Title is self explanatory - but why would anyone use Pop > TBTC? I can understand if you're running nowhere to hide, overcharge, etc - but those are additional perk slots. TBTC lets you damage a generator mid-chase, damage one from afar, stops you from having to really choose between chase vs damaging generator, etc. I'm not saying either of them are too strong or too weak - as they both h

  • Make dead hard ONLY usable with no mither. Make it to where you also don't have to eat a hook before you can use it and make it an exhaustion perk again like in the sense you can use it more than once per hook!! cause if I'm good enough why am I sandbagged by the devs. I mean if I can loop and evade the killer and regain use of the perk in between hooks I EARNED that and should be rewarded for it

  • The Judgement changes with the Hud and to zealous steering must be reverted. The fact that you are balancing the game around players who are not paying attention is absurd! Why are we making a killer, who has already been deemed the hardest killer to play, even harder to play? Please, for the respect of your player base. Do not let these changes go to live.

  • Example: The Executioner Fixed an issue where The Executioner's Punishment of the Damned failed to travel uphill. If this is a bug that has existed from the start, why did it take so many years to be fixed and never be addressed previously? So Devs, is there any other killer bug we should know? And players, what do you think about it?

  • So this is a denuvo post, i understand if it is removed. Weird thing i noticed At first the crash happened when i played on either side and now its only when i play killer, which sucks bc i main killer. Im down a whole color grade (bronze 3 to ash 3) bc it keeps happening:( For anyone else is it happening on only one side for you? Or is it both still? This anticheat crap has gotten me so many m

  • Boon builds have gotten a new piece to play with the past two chapter with lend a hand and steadfast along with shadowstep finding new life as aura perks get more popular so how do we feel about them atm? I wouldn't call them meta but they feel viable like maybe if you call exhaustion perks and some anti tunnel tier 1, boons feel like they're just outside in a tier 2 space where they're not the b

  • I developed a system in which Totems could function properly and become much more viable. Once activated, Totems would initially have a weak effect on survivors. However, as time passes, the totems would become stronger. There would be a total of three levels, or tiers: Tier 1, Tier 2, and Tier 3. Totems would level up over a certain period depending on their current tier. From Tier 1 to tier

  • So, as the title says, I was banned without using cheats. I don't know what happened, but that new anti-cheat system they introduced for te,sting banned my account.I hadn't played on the account for months, so this ban makes no sense. Please BHVR, give me back my account.

  • Someone's probably thought of this already, but why not make both these perks token based? Each token can reduce the time MoG activates by 10 seconds, up to 30 seconds. Apocalyptic Ingenuity could gain 1 token per chest/rummage simultaneously up to 3 times to reconstruct 3 different pallets. Both of these perks often get low value due to their cooldowns, so just lighten up on them a bit. Even

  • The 10 minute XP limit is just so frustrating to me. 
 I know the grind is hard on purpose to make us spend money on new characters but aren't cosmetics and licenses enough? 
 XP and with that iri shards shouldn't be this hard to earn. I know we won't get a general increase in iri shards we can earn but this is something they could at least address.

  • Title. I can't seem to play a single match without the game freezing for a good 2-3 seconds, either causing me to miss a skillcheck or get downed. I've tried everything: From cooling down my CPU/GPU with Afterburner, to unparking my CPU, to custom initialization commands through Steam, to moving the game to my SSD instead of my HDD… Nada. I'm quite baffled I haven't seen many people talking ab

  • One message, sure. Two, I guess. But everything after that is unnecessary. I get it, there is a new feature in-game that lets you explore a Killer's power with a short video alongside it. Don't get me wrong, I think it's very neat. I'm happy it's in the game now. It does a lot to augment the Tutorial. It's a gre

  • I’m curious how other Knight players are experiencing the 10.1.1 Guard pallet pathing change in actual matches. My main concern isn’t really the 48m Hunt cancellation itself. Even shorter detours around dropped pallets can consume a meaningful part of the Hunt timer and reduce Guard pressure, especially on indoor or pallet-heavy maps. Have you noticed Guards losing noticeably more pressure beca

  • these last two days i've had 4 cheater games . The easy tell for me is the crazy bugged spawn animation when the match starts . You can tell there is a cheater if your killer has an odd starting animation . Before this test i would see them very rarelly but 4 matches in 2 days is way more then i'm used too. Long behold every single one was on global so likelly epic games store if i had to guess .

  • DBD has procedural generation for tiles and pallets, everyone knows this. But should BHVR consider the idea of making the main building of every map (if the map can have one) to spawn in a random place and a random chance of what main building it can be. Also for those wondering about multiple map realms, i have a hot take for that and i think every realm should just have one map in general. It w

  • This killer is legit Henry all over again, just pure guess work. Killer guessed right (or aura perk) and spawns the ray under your feet? well ya getting hit with no counterplay Killer guesses wrong by a few metres? well ya make a few metres distance til she tries another guess literally everyone hates henry and you make him all over again, plus all the interaction (flash saves, sabos, pallet

  • So, for those who haven't seen, Vigil is losing its status effect additionals to avoid a number of interactions with other perks, being restricted exclusively to its main draw of reducing exhaustion. In exchange, BHVR are luckily tuning its numbers… down another 10% ? By Judgement that can't be right, I must be misreading! Hold on, let me go grab my glasses…and, nope, that still looks like a numb

  • Not 1 person has been able to explain or justify the design and balancing choices in regards to judgements power. It would be great to hear the design perspective on this killer as many in the community are mind boggled at the insanity that's been created and desperately waiting answers. I'm curious as to if any devs are able to do so? As anyone with a decent understanding of the game knows this

  • now that theres 44 killers can we finally have the option to ban killers and prevent certain ones from queing? if a survivor doesnt wanna play against a certain killer theyre not gonna play and thats that, for example if i load in and see its a Henry then im gonna run into the killer and go next, its simply not worth me investing my time in a match i know is not gonna be enjoyable. 99% of games

  • Very simple and straight forward. She will receive a new power. Power- The Gamemaster Amanda will retain her stealth crouch and her power to dash and it now breaks pallets. But the big change is there will be a new way the traps work. When Amanda downs a survivor she can drug them and send them to one of 4 Jigsaw traps!!!! Only two suriviors at a time can be sent to jignsaws labrato

  • Guys I think The Trapper, THE TRAPPER the face of DBD and the original killer as far I know XD. Deserves so much needed love because not only is he a really unique charecter with alot of potential but he deserves to be more that the begginer Killer. His power will have a new name!!! Power-Master Of Traps The Trapper is truly a master of all things that can maim and stop prey in their very

  • Hey everyone, first let me say I am not a FNAF super fan, but I think this would be a really good idea for a Springtrap rework. His Fire Axe is now his MAIN weapon. And his fire axe can be charged a bit faster and has a little more reach for lunge attacks. HOWEVER, if you fully charge a lunge attack he swings the Fire Axe wide and can hit multiple survivors. The name of his power will rema

  • That means the time limit for hunts is 11,50 seconds now? Or did i got it wrong? Jailer runs 4.2m/s, in 11.50/12 seconds he reaches 48 meters, if that's the case, whats the point of having the banner at all?

  • I know this would seem very overpowered but that only depends on how you design it. Maybe it could be a basekit Exhaustion feature, an affect of Vigil or maybe even a future Boon perk. Obviously getting exhaustion back while running at the same speed of walking would be very strong so it would probably get back twice as slow. Or taking even longer while in chase. What do you guys think?

  • Let's be honest. In a recent Q&A, they said Bloodpoints are meant to give players a sense of reward—which is why they cut back on point-boosting offerings, reduced matchmaking bonuses, and so on. But come on, does anyone actually feel rewarded in this game? Seriously, we have nearly 100 characters, and new ones are released every quarter; you don't even have time to level up the new ones—or t

  • I really hope that this is straighten out. Cause I also love going trophy hunting for any new chapter. For both survivor and Killer. By taking away those future trophies progress just ruins the fun and hype for everyone. And I feel everyone should be able to trophy hunt regardless of what platform you are on.

  • Ranged attack with no downside, almost guaranteed hit; SCRATCH THAT, in addition to having no downside, it hinders and brokens survivors, soooo yeah… RANGED ATK with HUGE UPSIDES TP around the map basically on demand → Jason basically plays 2 ways, in a chase, and in TP Blocking windows, pallets, survivor screams when he TPS, i mean… EVEN a mentally challenged individual would have an oppinion

  • With killers relying very hard on aura read recently we need a better counter to these builds. Much as I'm enjoying playing as and against her, judgement has exacerbated this since she can be actively tailing and attacking a survivor without being in chase as far as the game is concerned. But even without her being able to crossmap survs with constant aura with add ons there are a lot of killer

  • I had great fun playing both killer and survivor today, if I lost it didnt feel bs so I'm rather confused, is there more people subtle cheating in comp outfits than I am aware of? Or like, is it the MMR doing its job now. Whatever the cause this patch has been really fun for me, I hope this is a sign of things to come.

I narrowed it down that it’s all the characters I’ve purchased from the in game store and not steam. I still have access to all perks and if I click on a character that is now locked, it shows the prestige level that I had. For example, in one of the screensho

  • Will there be a chance for Serious Sam content in DBD? (If there was it would have most likely been a launch promotion thing) It was a suprise to see BHVR's name on it. And it makes me wonder what happened to Croteam. Is the Serious Sam license now owned by BHVR?

  • I'm talking about the likes of Spirit who are terrible from an accessibility stand point, like I don't care if you need to buff her or whatever to make up for it. Why does she NEED headphones to play as and against, not to mention people using 3rd party software to change audio just so they can hear survivors more clearly. It feels like it's been swept under the rug for like years and years.

With Eric pope, hired cosplayers and things like the anniversary entity photo station being there. However the place was way to small for a game of this size, for example with the line, which was way too long and caused problems for other e
