The term Addon Pass refers to when a killer gets a complete overhaul to their addons, but will we ever receive a perk pass? I dont refer to any set of perks in general, what i'm talking about is taking a look at perks that are never used because they are too weak like territorial imperative, still sight ect ect. The staleness caused by the years long meta we have been stuck in could be lifted and5 comments 92 views last activity

It is without a doubt that Blight is the most hated Killer for having some of the worst impact on the game's health and design as a whole. Some people would argue Nurse is because she is stronger, but Nurse has surprisingly had a more benign effect on game design by introducing more Line of Sight blockers in Maps (which does increase Skill Expression in the game as it allows for more mindgaming4 comments 121 views last activity

Seriously how much handholding do survivors need. 4 people still in the match after you buffed gen perks and I cant even secure 1 kill after being unhooked because whiny new survivor players want to escape every match. So lame and that doesnt even include all the various techs they get to cheese out the exit gate. Emoting should not deny the knockdown effect at exit gates.

Been playing a few games as survivor and these have been getting a bit way too out of hand... Genuinely, why were they scrapped in the first place? I understand that the anti-tunneling needed a major rework, but why was anti-slugging also scrapped with it?61 comments 2,071 views last activity

so kaneki hits me around corners, through walls and over pallets? I actually don’t understand how to even counter that? Even with losing sight he can just get a free hit?31 comments 833 views last activity

I feel like I should be able to know if I'm going against an individual with bad ping BEFORE I'm actively in the game with them. It's already no secret that the game is killer sided when it comes to hit boxes. Lagging killers almost always get hits they shouldn't if they're de-synced from the survivors.. But it feels like you're almost trapping us by not letting us know before hand. There wa6 comments 81 views last activity

there is a bug with this challenge, doesn’t equip random perks. I am not going to make a new account to report this as you all want. Please move to bug reporting, thanks0 comments 21 views last activity

can’t believe it’s day 7 and we’re at prestige 7. I’ve updated my build so it’s filled with perks that I think work really well and honestly one of my favorite combinations right now is handkerchief and no way out. This combo works surprisingly well together if I’m being honest and provides a great chunk of lethality during the endgame. And I’m also running forever entwined because I have an ad2 comments 31 views last activity

I feel like it has to be. I killed all the survivors, but when I had downed the last two (Third was on a hook) they all Abandoned the game and it shows on my Stats Tracker as them "Escaping". I dunno how to feel about this, it's very odd because that almost makes "winning" pointless as Killer if a Survivor tanks their kills through the Abdandon. I assume it is just a visual bug, because that just3 comments 41 views last activity

The amount of how much he can't use his power by a hook feels awful. Most killers can use their power by a hook. Even in EGC I can't defend myself against a swarm of survivors because welp…my power doesn't do anything. I am not a fan at all of these restrictions. PH, Vecna, Houndmaster, Huntress, Trickster, Hag, Doctor, Bubba, etc so forth and so on can all use their powers at a hook. At the v5 comments 71 views last activity

Why does the latest survey only ask for opinions on Killer balance from the Survivor perspective? I assumed going into it, that there'd be a section dedicated to asking Survivors their thoughts followed by a section asking for Killer opinions, but no. The survey asks for your thoughts on a couple of random Killers from the Survivor POV and then it just ends. Don't get me wrong, I'm not bashing37 comments 1,192 views last activity

His cooldowns are way too fast. I dodged 4 of his dashes and of course he still has another one. His power also comes back up SO fast. If you are not at a pallet or have any type of distance (Which is hard to do against him) you are just dead.30 comments 591 views last activity

Ghoul on his own is already an extremely poorly designed killer but everyone already knows that (except the devs apparently?) Regardless you can make him even more ridiculous with the new perk, secret project, which makes the killer undetectable for 30 seconds anytime a gen has been blocked. Ghoul has an iri addon called yamori’s mask that makes survivors scream after hooking in enraged mode.8 comments 302 views last activity

Today I've encountered a cheater and I knew it right away since he blinded me from nowhere. I confirmed he was cheating when facing the wall and he kept blinding me…so whatever, I refused to engage in the game and suddenly I got dc'd from the game and got matchmaking banned. Also at the end game screen I wasnt able to switch to match results to report him, first time this happened to me.0 comments 22 views last activity

So I spent 6 hours on Twitch to get the rewards and still nothing. My accounts are all linked and I clicked claim on the reward. That's not the issue. It's just that everytime they do these little events, the rewards never unlock or take multiple days. It's been over 3 days now. Do they simply not work properly or do they not release until a certain date? If it's the former, they really need to0 comments 61 views last activity

I completed the DBD survey last night and I wanted to share here the 3 killers I chose and the changes I made to those killers and their perks: The pig: .Reduce the amount of jig saw boxes needed to be searched to 2-3 rather than being between 1-4 jig saw box searches. .Increase the time it takes to search a jigsaw saw box by 25%.

Hey everyone, With the big 10th Anniversary approaching, I’ve been thinking about the ultimate addition to the roster. Do you think we might finally see Jason Voorhees join the Fog this year? It would be the perfect way to celebrate a decade of DbD. Fingers crossed!0 comments 101 views last activity

As a soloq survivor, I lose matches all the time. It's not unusual to have a situation where almost everybody is death hook at four gens. Yet it never feels like a miserable defeat to me. It doesn't feel PERSONAL. I never get the feeling like the killer is doing things on purpose to get under my skin. But playing killer tonight after a long time of playing survivor really reminded me of what the13 comments 402 views last activity

Super weird thing just happened and I need to know if it's normal or what. Playing Myers in Tier 3, mid-chase with a surv on death hook. Got the kill prompt, M1 grab from behind, start the mini-mori. SWF teammates BLINDS me during the kill animation. Never had this before in like 50+ of these kills. Was this a cheat or is it possible to visually blind Myers during the mini-mori animation?2 comments 61 views last activity

can’t dc, will be faced with a penalty. Killer tunnels you out you get a warning you may lose a grade. Like how is this our fault. It’s the games fault/content creators thinking this is the only viable option to win. You can’t do this you can’t do that, this game is becoming so unbearable. Devs are you hearing us????? Helloooooooo??? Maybe killers need to lose 2 grades for tunneling. The heck18 comments 371 views last activity

Almost every Billy i face has this + Spiked Boots. I don't get why this add-on hasn't been changed yet. It's not like Billy is a weak killer yet it just allows him to brute force every tile without any thought. Just forces safe predropping since almost every single good read you do as survivor in a tile gets you hit becouse he is zooming at Mach10 compared to normal base-kit speed.

I wanted to share what im doing this patch when I play The Krasue im gonna do a no perk, no Addon and no Offerings until I hit max Blood points. Ive been wanting to challenge myself for some time and this is how im choice to do it. I never touched The Krasue. So I thought it would be a amazing opportunity I recommend it to anyone else that would like a challenge or to do something new0 comments 21 views last activity

I've seen a uptick of this behaviour again, and it's really annoying me. What happens is that people queue up, ready up, and then as soon as the timer hits zero and we're about to go into the offering screen, someone dips and leaves everyone behind in the lobby. This is a massive waste of everyone's time since now we have to wait for a new player to fill the gap and sit through that whole proce15 comments 321 views last activity

Hi guys, I hope all of are doing well I was playing survivor yesterday with my friends, and one of the matches were against a kaneki, and ok, nobody wants to play with the new vecna and I don't mind kaneki so much, but this match was really awkward because, every time he was vaulting right after me on pallets, I was insta dying, every single time, I wasn't trying to vault back, I was just going51 comments 1,473 views last activity

EDIT: POSTED IT TOO SOON, LOL Me and my friends did an experiment on running 4 toolboxes with BNPs. On 10 matches, we got like 8 with killers doing 1 or 2 hooks only, or only 2 of those getting a kill. Why toolboxes still exist like this? EDIT2: Toolboxes are the most commons currently for winstreaks. Even casual with 4 toolboxes can pressure experienced killers with ease.9 comments 201 views last activity

Seems like BHVR is considering adding a ranked/tournament mode in DBD from what we’ve seen in today’s feedback survey. My only concern with that is the queue times being messed up especially when we have events. I also think comp players will go into casual mode to stomp on those players.46 comments 982 views last activity

Over the last few months I've had an issue with the game running fine and then randomly start crashing every game. It feels almost impossible to play the game anymore on that platform because of this. I've tried cleaning my playstation, resetting wifi, resetting my playstation, everything, and it keeps happening.

Hello everyone. The problem I wanna talk about has been there for YEARS and it keeps getting belittled on a large scale. I've played Doctor and won many matches and my win rate spiked, therefore I got into better lobbies and just met a cheater SWF again. They all were subtle cheaters. I know having a clip would be amazing in that situation but I didn't pay attention to the survivors in lobby16 comments 551 views last activity

I recommend everyone puts their honest opinions on how awfully balanced the top tiers are. Or better yet you can say which low tier killers are awfully balanced too <3 Let's let them know how dumb Blight/Nurse or whoever else are, coz I'm personally sick of them. If you disagree that's fine, you can also say how much you like them too I believe.27 comments 982 views last activity

Just poking around to see if this apparent rank bug is known. I seem to be ranking up despite getting rinsed and not at all reaching the thresholds for rank up. Additionally I am double pipping when only scoring enough for a single. Not a massive issue or anything just curious if this was known. -M0 comments 1 views last activity

Last four games I just played in SoloQ, every single match had a Surv that was cheating and "escaped" the match with 5 gens to be left. At least two of them 99% all the gens on the map before dipping, so the game was cut short. Also in one of them there was cheating wraith who was blatantly cheating, despite the game being a 3v1 at 5 gens, felt the need to cheat because he was still loosing the m7 comments 142 views last activity

Hey guys! Hope all is well. I was wondering if exponential is bugged at the moment? I've looked it up in bug reports and didn't see anything. I'll be in the boon radius and still not get up. Others will but I will not. I just had a friend go through the same thing. Is it bugged or is there a limited use change I don't know about? Tysm!!3 comments 51 views last activity

I wanted to share my final thoughts as I decide to step away from Dead by Daylight. This game has brought me incredible friendships, but the current environment has become too toxic to enjoy. The shift toward a heavy aura-reading meta, combined with the lack of effective moderation against tunneling and slugging, has made the survivor role feel like a chore rather than a game. It’s disheartening87 comments 1,752 views last activity

I have been watching the fog carnival event stats for global progress, and I have noticed two main issues. The Base numbers to reach are geared in a way that almost insinuates the killers are supposed to win, I think this points to the developers being aware that short of the most cream of the crop skilled players most survivor games are going to lean toward multiple killer kills. the actual n7 comments 282 views last activity

It's not possible to always play the same maps. Is there an "official" explanation? In a week, I think I've only played Ormond once (my favorite map) .

I was playing survivor and two players were hacking. They let us get insta sacrified + healing each other from a distance. Sabo'ing from a distance and other obvious things.

OK been a while but we have made it to prestige 6 which means I officially have my prestige drip and honestly the killer is more fun than I gave her credit for and I’ve been experimenting with new perk combos and by experimenting I mean 90% of my games were just with bamboozle and disillusion, and that was enough most of the time.

As you can see, according to the DBD Discord, Steve's old scream still exists in the game but was obviously very rarely heard since the Stranger Things Chapter 2 change and so they are going to make it trigger much more often.
