Just looking for some clarification as I’m new to the game and it sounds sort of absurd that a killer who essentially replaces their basic attack with a chainsaw can’t use their own perk.1 comments 61 views last activity

In my match yesterday notice some of the survivor icons would seemingly randomly get brighter not sure if this means anything. It was one at a time if I remember. Does anyone know why this is happening?3 comments 81 views last activity

I just had a Match against a Doctor he would sometimes just stand still for a few seconds after that I could do nothing (Gen progression stopped, stuck in unhook animation could not move.) and my game froze for a few seconds but the sound was still there after that 2 survs (fully healed) just went down right next to eachother that were in completely diffrerent spots on the map before.

Do survivors really believe that calling everything tunneling and camping regardless of the situation makes people more inclined to play nice? I start caring less and less with each game I play and more and more I start doing what people claim I do anyway. Why should I not act and play the role that survivors tell me I am doing anyway? Why shouldn't I simply start playing in the way survivors are10 comments 141 views last activity

I feel like this should have an easy answer, but my search has failed me. My spouse and I share a steam account. Traditionally, this wasn't a huge problem. But lately we BOTH have multiplayer steam games we want to play at the same time, DBD being mine. I'd love to transfer my dbd account off of steam to a separate account. Though presumably not to another steam account, guessing there's a 0% ch2 comments 311 views last activity

I've been working for about 2 years on personal themes for some characters (deathslinger, trapper and wraith) and hence I'm a fan of DBD, I wonder if that could get me banned? The thing is, the music will not be changed from the survivor POV, just from the Killer's when in a chase. All the songs were adjusted the the game's volume levels4 comments 351 views last activity

Every single game of mine recently has displayed a white/red arrow in the top left corner of my screen. I have read that it has to do with internet lag, but my internet is well and working. I'm playing on PS5 and am wondering if there is a remedy for my situation. I've restarted my console, internet, game, switched between my 5G and 2G internet, but nothing seems to work.

I've been playing since release and am rank one killer and survivor, and have never posted before because I've always felt the game was balanced, but lately I've been timing my matches and 8 of my last 10 have had all 5 generators finish in under 5 min with the record being 3min 58 seconds and I just don't feel confident in my killer abilities anymore. Any tips on how to do better?4 comments 71 views last activity

Because tonight I've had [bad word]ing TERRIBLE games as Huntress. Games where I stood no chance at all against the Survivors. Some was bad map RNG but for the most part me as my Rank 13 Huntress going against Red and near-Red rank Survivors just hasn't been any fun at all. So when is the stuff from the PTB going live? Because I can't find a post saying when that will be.7 comments 111 views last activity

I got DbD on both PC and Ps4, and since i saw there's gonna be cross progression between PC and Switch i might buy it for this platform too for whenever i'm staying away from home. So, is the performance good, bad or tolerable?13 comments 1,731 views last activity

Hello, I was recently thinking about perk combo's and i thought, what happens with legion and feral frenzy if he is undetectable by any means, and on that note what happens when you do hit someone but your still undetectable? Do you lose undetectable? Do you keep it and lose the ability to track? Do you keep undetectable but suddenly become a ninja capable of jump scaring people and knowing of9 comments 602 views last activity

What the question said above. Will there be new skins for licensed survivors?I just bought the Silent Hill DLC and I am looking forward to buying more skins for Cheryl and Pyramid Head, considering if I should save my money for the upcoming skins for other characters too... Thanks!3 comments 21 views last activity

Hey guys. I have a question about the perk Blood Pact. This is the current description: " When you or the Obsession are injured, you both see each other's Auras . After healing the Obsession or being healed by the Obsession , you both gain the Haste Status Effect , moving at an increased speed of 5 / 6 / 7 % until you are no longer within 16 metres of each othe4 comments 81 views last activity

I've used this option in the game but I don't know what it really does. I also don't know where to find the block list and how to remove people from it. Apparently I can't block people anymore because when I try it doesn't say "unblock" anymore just "block" so I assume my list is full? I hope it actually blocks players from being matched up with you because there are some people that play this ga4 comments 521 views last activity

I don’t understand why the hate for keys. Usually 2-3 survivors will escape with it, the same number you’ll probably kill with a mori. They both end the game faster by the same amount, it seems. Also, you can’t use a key until a certain # of gens is done, probably around 60% usually, and can’t mori until certain # of hooks is reached, 67% per survivor. It seems like they would both end the game f3 comments 31 views last activity

During both the lobby screen and the end game score card, there is an option to block other players in-game. What does this do exactly? Does it stop you from playing with/against this person at another time? Or does it just stop them from messaging you or joining you through the game's menus? Or, is it just there to make you feel all warm and fuzzy, and does absolutely jack?1 comments 21 views last activity

Let me preface this by saying I'm a survivor main trying to play killer. I'm trying really hard to get better at this role, but I keep consistently getting matched with survivors who are way above me in rank. I wouldn't complain if it were a mix, like a green, two purples and a red, but it's every one of my matches that look like this. I'm not terrible at10 comments 323 views last activity

I watched a survivor stream where killer, the spirit, used hacks. The streamer does not want to waste time to report. He gave the killer's Steam ID, can I report for him and how? There's VOD.6 comments 41 views last activity

Anyone know if there's a bug right now? I was full strength and unhooked someone, then I hid in a locker. The Inner Strength perk icon did it's clockwise wipe. Then later when I was injured, I went into a locker and it did not heal me.2 comments 11 views last activity

The most fun thing about playing killer is chasing survivors, but sometimes finding them is pretty difficult and takes up a long time! What are some good builds to find survivors and get the game rolling?3 comments 21 views last activity

Out of Ghostface, Leatherface, Freddy, Pyramid Head, Demogorgon, or Myers which would be the best. I've heard the Pig isn't good but idk1 comments 21 views last activity

Recently I got into a match with David with a purple flashlight(and battery addons). He could blind me while I was moving and also while chasing him. The flashlight blind always started way too early(less than 1s) and my attempts to flick the camera didn't work. How is it possible?22 comments 311 views last activity

I'm playing with an Xbox controller on PC and I can't figure out how to crush Victor. I briefly got an on-screen prompt that I think said to either use LB or LT, but neither of those seemed to work when I tried them, and also both of them are mapped to running/crouching, so I ran and crouched when I pushed them. What's the proper way to do it?1 comments 51 views last activity

if this is not something that should be happening in the game, why was my discussion closed? I find it pretty rude and actually offensive.

Hey guys, I'm just tryin' rn some plays as Huntress but I need any advice about her hatchets and precise shots. I know +/- where's my middle of screen on x/y-axis but I don't know how properly I need to aim. Somewhere I found you need to aim little bit higher, because exact spot for Huntress crosshair is on y-axis (-45) but I don't know if it's true or not.

So, I have been playing DbD since September on PS4, and I've made up my mind I want to play on PC instead. What is the best killer for me to start off on?

Hello. I'd like to know a few things about perk Solo Survivor. I hope someone makes it clear to me. Your aura cannot be read by the Killer within a maximum range of 20/22/24 metres for each killed or sacrificed Survivor. So when one of my teammates dies, the killer can't detect me from 24 meters with any Aura reading perk/add-on. Does that mean that perk like I'm All Ears or Wraith's add-on2 comments 22 views last activity

Pessoal, sou muito fã da franquia de Filmes " Pânico na floresta", Ou como conhecido em outros paises " WRONG TURN", Gostaria de mandar uma Sugestão para os desenvolvedores do Jogo em criar o KILLER mais temido do filme, o Three Finger, Eu realmente iria amar se eles colocassem esse killer, (FOTO DELE ABAIXO) e como sobrevivente poderiam colocar o Chris Flynn que foi o sobrevivente que Lutou cont1 comments 11 views last activity
