I watch YouTube videos of popular streamers to see what decisions they make in which situations as playing Killer, so I can improve my gameplay. But their videos are literally ridiculous. Unless they specifically name the title "versus a sweaty swf", most teams they play against are incredibly bad. Not the perks, but their gameplay: They catch multiple people repairing the same generator, easil24 comments 701 views last activity

im fed up of killers with bad ping in my games getting free hits all the time… why is this even a thing? make it so servers favour the person with better connection?!3 comments 101 views last activity

having multiple actions on a single button is annoying ill give some short examples: when you play as killer and you down someone infront of a pallet/window/locker and the game for some reason prioritizes those actions i listed before instead of the survivor pickup, youre force to look a certain direction in order to get the pick up option and are vulnerable to flashlight saves, or waste time3 comments 31 views last activity

i came back after i haven't played the game for most of 2025 and honestly, the gen speed is insane. I'm experienced (4000h) and i tried many different perk setups and tactics and honestly, there just isn't a way to 4k anymore. At least not against the survivors i play against. Even if my chases go fast, it's almost impossible to prevent all 5 gens from finishing. All the band-aid perks are gone a15 comments 362 views last activity

Why am I penalized for the server disconnecting during 2v8. I never DC on purpose for any reason. Since this event has started the server has disconnected 3 different times handing me penalties. It's a bit ridiculous at this point, I mean cheaters can run rampant but I get penalized for something as trivial as your server problems.0 comments 31 views last activity

Adaptive Endless Boss Mode with Engagement & Monetization Potential Dear Team at Behaviour Interactive, I would like to submit a more detailed proposal for an experimental PvE mode in Dead by Daylight: an Adaptive Endless Boss Mode featuring a progressively learning AI Killer.

I would like to suggest a focused improvement regarding Eleven from Stranger Things in Dead by Daylight. Eleven is an extremely iconic character, and her visual identity is strongly tied to her psychic strain moments — especially the nosebleed and signature hand gestures during power usage. Currently, when using her perks, there is little to no visual feedback that reflects this defining trait.1 comments 22 views last activity

I haven't lost a single game as survivor. Survivor survival rate and killer kill have already swapped in this mode. Having above 60% escape rate isn't healthy for the game.5 comments 101 views last activity

I got recently disconnected in DBD during opening exit. I finished the last generator, and I started to open exit and turned my camera like back to see if killer is coming. All of suddenly server stopped it just basically like game crashed I couldn't abandon nor exit. Then I get disconnected with a reason " Server isn't responding, disconnecting… " and then I get a 4 minutes penalty??? How in the3 comments 91 views last activity

I've seen a number of posts talking about/complaining about 'genrushing', and while I do feel that generators in my games are going faster than before, I don't think it's down to a single factor. It is an accumulation of a lot of things happening across the game, which I've tried to enumerate below. First, the number of Bloodpoint farming events we've had in succession means that the Bloodweb e33 comments 1,144 views last activity

Am I the only one playing killer in 2v8 and always getting genrushed and having 7 or more survivors escape? Seriously, this has become the rule for 99% of my killer marches in 2v8. And I played many killers in this mode. Spirit, Wraith, Legion, Wesker, Nemesis and Blight. And the result was almost always the same. The vast majority of survivors escaped on almost every match. This is the worst ver14 comments 444 views last activity

Unknown needs a buff that lengthens the time a survivor is infected needs a cooldown reduction to his m2 attack This would make him feel a lot better to play, as of right now its way to punishing to miss ONE shot and they can clear the UVX. Please buff him2 comments 31 views last activity

The zombies that spawn with Nemesis have always been the topic of many discussions, with their ai being buggy and getting stuck on rocks, or how they can bodyblock Nemesis himself, but i wanted to raise a question. Should Nemesis have some control over their movements and where they go? I'm not talking about taking full control over them like changing from Charlotte to Victor, but more like makin7 comments 151 views last activity

I mainly play the game to be a killer, but this 2v8 is a nightmare! 90% of the time, people rush generators like their real lives depend on it. It's infamous! 30 minutes of waiting for 5 minutes of gameplay? Please, it's long, it's VERY long... Please, devs, add more time to the generators or something, it's horrible. You spawn, take 5 steps, 2 generators pop instantly, and we haven't even had a1 comments 22 views last activity

Got out the theaters recently and was pretty impressed with what the film had to offer! Nice soundtrack, solid concept, cool effects, answers without giving too much of the mystery away. Disconnected from the hype and media attention surrounding it, I thought it was a well made movie that built nicely off what little was seen in the game.

The number of pallets needs to be reduced. Pallets are everywhere on the map, so many that you'd find one almost every two steps, not to mention the survivors' professions allow them to regenerate pallets. Unless two killers cooperate, even a strong killer in 1v4 mode, they still need a tremendous amount of time to take down a survivor in 2v8. And two killers cooperating means there's no time to0 comments 41 views last activity

nice map dropped me))))))))) I play on hillbilly and I get ALWAYS Lery's or hawkins. it is normal? Where is autohaven? why normal maps dropped maximum 1 time out of 10? And then we wonder why the online is low in the game, because the offerings don't work, because in all these ten matches I had offerings on Autohaven lol.

Sorry to anyone who I've played against during 2v8 that happens to be the last remaining downed survivor, I'm not trying to be toxic by leaving you downed not hooking or mori, it's just that I'm probably Trapper or a different original killer and I'm waiting for my random teammate to come do their much cooler mori so I can get in photo bomb it.3 comments 121 views last activity

Ok so I'm more than a little concerned because I think I've literally only played the same few maps for like a month. My 1st match of the day is always Badham, followed by Nostromo, then I only get Toba Landing, The Game, Midwich, Lery's and Haddonfield (until it recently was removed) in varying order. Yesterday, I got Badham twice in a row as Freddy in Chaos Shuffle with no map offerings.12 comments 591 views last activity

i’m gonna be so for real. I’ve just been doing nothing but losing my games recently and in one of them all the generators got done in like three minutes so I don’t know whether or not that just shows my skill as a player or Gen rushing becoming a more prominent thing, but who knows. We are finally prestige 8 and I’m beginning to learn which angles I can and cannot curve at along with actually ge0 comments 61 views last activity

If there is one subject of DBD's balance that can be equated to beating a dead horse, it would be complaining about the matchmaking. This horse is more then just dead, it's so dead that it's basically ash on the wind. So with the 2026 roadmap including a supposed "MMR Rework" I felt it would be good to look at exactly what the problems with the matchmaking are and see what can be done to fix it.6 comments 1,063 views last activity

i keep seeing SO many different people saying the values range completely differently. i've seen it be 1 - Low, 2 - Medium, 3 - High, and 4 - Ultra. but i've also seen it said as 0 - Low, 1 - Medium, 2 - High, and 3 - Ultra, which made the most sense to me. however, when i removed the file to recreate a brand new one, the values were set to 3 and 4 which is confusing to me because I didn't think2 comments 262 views last activity

I thinks its Terrible. And its that there isn't much to it. Other than the classes and other features like hook cages. What bothers me is that it feels the exact same as 1v4. I do like the cages, its a very healthy way of dealing with Tunneling and Camping without changing the game to much. I like the cage moves when the killers finds it. If they can add a version of this system to 1v4, even i7 comments 153 views last activity

its not every match but I have noticed that there is just alot of DCs in my matches. Including the Killer side. I was on Trapper and I had a ghost face as my partner. everyone on the survivor team left, leaving me and the Ghost Face looking at eachother like : Really, what did we do: it might be rare to have everyone DC but it was funny and disappointing because of the Q times for killer.10 comments 231 views last activity

I have been enjoying the cosmetics they have been releasing recently. I like all of the new skins they have been releasing, including the outfits they had months ago of the birthday outfits for the clown, chucky, dwight and claudette. and today I got the new Taurie cain skin that has a cool reactive color to it with a gas mask. Also the nurse skin. Hollis and his team at BHVR have really been doi14 comments 261 views last activity

One thing that I have noticed in many 2 vs 8 scenarios is that once the survivors have an edge on the killers, killers run between hook spawning locations instead of checking gens to slow their progress or abandoning long chase more. I'm interested as to why this doesn't serve as evidence to support the OG cages that moved once the killer arrived at a cage. I know an argument was that people were3 comments 101 views last activity

Hi gamers, is there a way to cap DBD's power usage? IDK why but at certain times DBD's power usage is and will stay at 100% and my PC runs way too hot. Mind you I have water cooling and enough fans, so it really shouldn't be a problem 😅 but for some reason with DBD it's sometimes a struggle. I don't have this issue in other games, even though I run those on ultra settings. If anyone knows how2 comments 161 views last activity

Now I understand that you've most likely clicked on this post in belief that I'm complaining about the removal of Stevegull. In all honesty I couldn't care less about Stevegull because professional screamers know that Shev and Lisa the best for that. I just wanted to see if anyone else finds Steve's new screams weird. To me they just kinda sound like aggressive grunts more than an actual scream.2 comments 121 views last activity

I've seen multiple people try it. But never succesful. I know the time between pickup and cage is small, but unless the time is to small to actuall apply the effect, there are people out there who are precise enough. So is it just a really small chance or really impossible? Edit: Thanks everyone for answering. In the mean time, I've seen it happen a few times.

IIve Been playing a lot of trapper lately. Ive been even going perkless with addons to try and strengthen my fundamentals but this guy definitely needs perks against sweaty survivors who want to bring 4 second chance perks.

With the Recent bug fix patch Pallet spawning broke now it's spawning pallets everywhere where it can spawn on EVERY MAP. Every 4-8 meters a pallet you can see every map now has 20+ Pallets I strongly recommend you don't play an M1 Killer right now https://youtu.be/4zrBBGPg82U?si=Ea0Hp95IDQI0D4BK9 comments 531 views last activity

I suggest as killer you try running lethal persuer. Most games now, (with all 5 of us running bloodpoint offerings, so no offerings changing it are in play) survivors just spawn like they used to. I don't think it is actually working right.38 comments 1,343 views last activity

Yesterday I had the experience in the 2v8 mode that the player who was playing the Nurse left the match. The bot is completely overpowered, hits every single time, and there’s absolutely nothing you can do about it. Behind a wall, with height differences, doesn’t matter. Looping the killer is nearly impossible; the bot downed four players in a very short amount of time. I mean, a challenging game14 comments 462 views last activity

Always the same killers, always the same strategy, always the same perks/loadout, always the same maps, always the same layout, always the same survivors. Where is the variety? It's so boring seeing the same thing over and over again.54 comments 1,042 views last activity

I am a long-time player and a big fan of Dead by Daylight, and I would like to share a suggestion that I believe would generate a lot of excitement within the community.

As if 1v4 wasn't bad enough, you'll have to deal with more hackers now more than ever. As if they all came out of their closets to suck out all the fun from your soul.
