Feng Min gets way too many cosmetics. I get it shes a fan favorite but i feel like others would get a chance to be a fan favorite too if they actually got cute cosmetics as well. Im a girl so obviously i want cute clothes for my main. Theres a lot of girls who play this game and the only one who really gets girly cosmetics is Feng. So it only makes sense for girls to gravitate towards Feng. My ma74 comments 2,803 views last activity

Can all the yellow bars of the stoic state be changed to fall to the ground if they are not repairedCan all the yellow bars in the perseverance state be changed to fall to the ground if they are not repaired within 15 seconds after they are triggered. Instead of running, turning left and right or chasing, you can prevent the yellow bars from losing their progress. The repair must be completed or It has nothing to do with whether you are chased by the killer or not. Even if you are chased and tr2 comments 61 views last activity

I main Pyramid Head, Prestige 34 with him. I've tried everything against these stupid gen goblins. Call of brine, eruption, tinkerer, jolt, you name it. but in the end I get tinkerer pops in the first 5 seconds of every chase. I just wanna have fun..4 comments 141 views last activity

A curious question for you guys! I've seen discussions in the past where people were of the opinion that map offerings should be removed entirely - to which I fully agree - but I can't recall a conversation on offerings in general. Offerings are a nostalgic part of Dead by Daylight to me, but their actual utility is kind of questionable, I feel like.

I'm talking Old Power Freddy. I honestly miss the shake up of a playstyle old Freddy was. He was hopeless against real gen focused survivors, but his kit was unique. Every killer game I feel like I'm just going through the motions as an m1 killer. It makes me miss having a power that really changed your playstyle.5 comments 81 views last activity

If i damage a generator not by kicking it, but with a perk like jolt, eruption or pain resonance etc. Does it trigger perks that go active after damaging a generator, such as call of brine or oppression? Or do i need to directly kick the gen to have them work?1 comments 111 views last activity

Currently playing DBD on PC, but would love to see it come to the steam deck. It looks like some people have it working on Epic Games Store on Linux, so I can't wait to see when the game will be playable on Steam with the Steam Deck. Sidenote, buff the Trapper(would love to see more traps)!2 comments 671 views last activity

As a killer, there’s no fun in killing everyone, or at least 2, when there are still 2-3 gens left. And I only play Dredge, Bubba, Twins.. I play survivor too and I know those games are no fun. When 2 ppl die and you still have 2-3 gens left, “it’s game over man!” I know it’s weird to complain about winning as a killer. And of course it’s no fun when killer gets 0 kills and survivors have it e2 comments 101 views last activity

The perk should have a cooldown per pallet, to prevent people spamming it on the same pallet, dropping it and resetting it over and over again11 comments 402 views last activity

Submitted this as a bug report but couldn't figure out how to attach my log file. It appears that moving between rank levels (not numbers IV-III-II-I, I mean ranks like Silver to Gold, etc.) after a Trial will sometimes cause an error with communicating with the server, and then will cause the next Trial to randomly disconnect you during it. Restarting the game does not seem to fix the problem.0 comments 31 views last activity

Has anyone else noticed a major upswing in teammates sandbagging you? Multiple games today I've had players screw me over at pallets. Body block me, etc. There are many players who don't understand when it's appropriate to try and take hits. A tip I'll give to newer players, if you see someone looping the killer - even if they're injured - STAY BACK. If you see someone running to a pallet, please1 comments 71 views last activity

Yup. It's another one of these sodding spots. Not even sure how you get into this one, but it allows you to be both very difficult to hit (you can only hit them from a very specific angle and if they crouch you miss) but it makes them completely impossible to pick up.

Even if they take dead hard out the game.. killers are going to complain about something.. next it will be nerf sprint burst.. then nerf medkits.. then "it should be a 2v1 not 4v1"...

As Killer there are a few maps I feel like I have no chance on, Mother dwelling and Brogo being the worst. Borgo feels miserable to chase anyone on. pallets are dominos and I keep getting stuck on random bits in the fields. And Mother's dwelling has quite the walk between gens. Some matches I feel like I lose because I guessed which gens survivors were at wrong. This also one of the few maps1 comments 41 views last activity

I have been evolving the way I record my stats for about 14 months and the image shows 150 games from the season ending on Sunday. I find them interesting and thought you might, too.

With how strong the gen regression meta and some killers are. I feel ive reached a mmr where just simple meme builds i don't probably have the overall skill (skill diff i know lol) to make use of something like 3 aura reveals+shadowborne to stop gens from popping. (I have to run shadowborne as a motion sick player) should i just tank the losses until my mmr gets to the point where i can play meme8 comments 91 views last activity

Apparently it is what killed pop and what will kill eruption. When i first returned to this game i didn't understand why people were saying pop was useless now just because it does 5% less damage but apparently it is much worse than that. So can someone please explain to me exactly what the difference between "current" gen progress and "total gen progress" is?7 comments 612 views last activity

It’s very sad to see this game dying. Within the past 6 months all BHVR has focused on is making DBD very easy for killers while making surviving basically impossible for survivors. The excuses I hear for this 4v1 pvp game is astounding. F13 is a 1v7, with weapons, stunners, multiple escape options and even a kill the killer choice. Yet there are so many crybabies about a 4v1 with no weapons, kil29 comments 1,171 views last activity

Tell them that, "It was the game developers who trained me to get kills as efficiently as possible." Take it up with them. Survivors love to hate on killers who camp/tunnel, but these strategies have consistently been supported by the game developers. Before skill based matchmaking, games were killers focused on CHASES rather than KILLS were abundant because gens were not completed as quickl0 comments 91 views last activity

So Eruption is dead, Ruin is extinct, Dead Man's Switch is gone, Thanatophobia is destroyed and Pop Goes the Weasel has been burned to ash. To be honest, the one I miss the most is Pop Goes the Weasel and the thing is, out of these perks, it was the least complained about. Seriously, back in the day, there weren't many survivors who would whine about Pop Goes the Weasel. I get it that the devs t38 comments 1,467 views last activity

From the patch notes: First, Eruption will now cause the generator to lose 10% of its current progress, not total. This means the effect will be less severe on generators with less progress, but more impactful on generators that are nearly completed. Second, Eruption will no longer apply the Incapacitated effect to Survivors who were repairing the generator when it exploded. Instead, Sur106 comments 4,845 views last activity

After the meta changing patch. You said that you would buff some perks that nobody use right now. So you buff the Thanatophobia,yeah 1% ,let it become it used to be in the ptb though it already lose it ability for delay the healing. And Eruption our new friend,it was so useless that nobody use before. It doesn't really help too much but still we are happy for it. Because for such a long time3 comments 101 views last activity

Eruption rewarded unhealthy and boring playstyle and had to be changed asap, that's why they pushed the change in the upcoming patch now instead of the next midchapter with other perk changes. Dead hard on the other hand, has already gone through a major nerf, only works in a 0.5s frame rewarding skill play So what exactly are you complaining and crying about?

I think there are a lot of survivor mains who get confused, so I'm attempting to reinforce this fact. No, you are not supposed to escape every time you play the game. Yes, the odds are supposed to be stacked against you. Mic drop.28 comments 561 views last activity

Eruption is unhealty, DH is still unhealthy, NOED is unfun to go against, so is COH. can we just complain equally about our own sides and other sides perks? Yeah, i get dead hard was piece of unfair garbage for 5+ years and still can be. But BHVR is starting to do more perk changes. So there is hope we won’t have stuff like that again.

after the last update they are penalizing me if another player goes offline DC. What is the reason for punishing someone who doesn't do it?

Hi everyone! As the title suggests I’ve recently bought a PS5 and transported all my data from PS4 to PS5. Now the problem is that there are quite a few characters ‘locked’ even though I had all of them on ps4. I’ve already had to buy the game again for €30 and really don’t want to spend even more money on characters I should still own. I wouldn’t mind waiting for them to be on sale, however I0 comments 91 views last activity

Survivor to killer ratio is 4:1 So any company with an ounce business sense will naturally cater to 4 consumers more instead of one. Expecting a business to be "fair" and treat both sides equally in a video game is idealistic, not realistic. The side that brings in the most revenue will always be catered to more and no amount of posting in the forums will change that. In simple terms, if you ma10 comments 191 views last activity

So... I have been playing this game from quite a few years and I remember when this perk came out... I remember the "unhook" being added due to preventing the perk of becoming too strong but the perk actually it's not really. Think about it, yeah, the effect of self unhook is cool but... you are broken for a big part of the match... and you also need to unhook another person, which sometimes do1 comments 81 views last activity

It surprises me how you seem to be trying to hear the community, but you always try to do it your own way, much worse than the community suggests. So many ways have been suggested on this forum as to how this perk could be fixed so that it remains useful, but becomes healthier.

Ya sabemos todos que Freddy es actualmente el peor killer del juego y lo único que más o menos lo salvaba era su sinergia con erupción, pues ahora que está Nerf este killer ha muerto por completo y si ya era el peor killer del juego, ahora es un meme jugarlo y es una broma enfrentarse a el de lo débil que es.2 comments 41 views last activity

Make it a Gen blocking Perk. Survivors know when their teammates are in chase by looking at their fancy new hud. They shouldn’t be spoon fed every crumb of information.

I wanted to say "thank you" once again for all the fresh entertainment.

Listen, I literally never used this perk, but Ive faced it A LOT on SoloQ, and I think I have the right to speak on this. Eruption being "strong" was never really an issue directly, but moreso that it was punishing to SoloQ players and not at all effective to those in SWFs. The perk itself was a highlight of perk design that BHVR needs to avoid, since it would only widen the gap between SWF and24 comments 601 views last activity
