So I've played since the beginning of DBD and have noticed many changes to many perks but what about boil over? Boil Over is one of those meme perks that people run just to run it. There are many better perks that can substitute it like Decisive Strike. I think it should be buffed or changed either one sounds like. What do you guys think?4 comments 111 views last activity

I was a Trapper main on the ps4 and got to rank 1 with him. I switched over to P.C. and played around with other killers but this last week I decided to go back to Trapper. For some reason suriviors are just running straight through my traps! I've never had this problem on ps4 but on P.C. it seems like 70% of my traps can be dodged so easily. People tell me that I need better placement but for a1 comments 51 views last activity

Are coop actions twice as fast as regular actions or what exactly? Players always insist on healing you instead of using self care since its way faster, but now youre taking two players out of the game instead of one. Often you'll see players waste a ton of time running across the map to come heal or do a coop gen. Moreover teaming up on gens is obviously popular but it means that if the killer4 comments 691 views last activity

So, to preface this: I've got about a thousand hours in the game, been playing since 2017, between Hag and Doctor. I prefer killer, but I do play roughly 50/50 since I find survivor less stressful. I've had 100% achievements two separate times and hope to eventually get back there again (some of the deathslinger's chapter's achievements are awful!), so I've played the game enough to have been r2 comments 111 views last activity

Which mouse sensitivity do you guys play on for both roles? I've just recently started playing killer more (almost 3k hours), and noted that the default 50 seems to be a bit low.1 comments 5,921 views last activity

We had an AFK Wraith, which is reportable (https://forum.deadbydaylight.com/en/discussion/comment/1157234#Comment_1157234). After all the gens were finished and the Exit Gates were powered I ran to one and saw a Survivor topping it off at 99%, and then they just stood there blocking the switch. I ran to the other switch and just barely beat another Survivor to it. It's possible for SWF (or even1 comments 91 views last activity

Is there any way I can obtain the cardigan torso for Feng Min? It doesn't seem to show up in my in-game store. Also, It might just seem like my game is glitched considering I'm not able to see all cosmetics with the store. Weird and hard to explain...2 comments 1,072 views last activity

I have been getting an issue with "disconnecting from the host" but have not been able to resolve it. It displays me and the killer having disconnected. I have done the following and still manage to get disconnected: - tried to change internet to NAT Type Open but the Type remains "2" - hard reset ps4 to factory settings - delete game and rebuild database - play on a different internet c0 comments 31 views last activity

I’ve seen a video talking about how DBD tournaments are difficult to make, so I’d like to show rules from one of the biggest dbd tourney in my country. What do you guys think? You can watch the VOD of the tournament on twitch.tv/dossierchannel . To see some nice jukes. This is the rule from one of the biggest dbd tourney in my country (512 teams, 1.6k price pool.)

So last night I was playing a game as Pig at Lery's. I had a Yui with 'No Mither' and a flashlight. I was chasing her and she ran into a wall and suddenly dissappears and she was running the opposite direction behind me (had good ping). When I downed her and picked her up, she had 'Boil Over', making extremely difficult to get to a hook (I don't know if more than normal because I don't counter t8 comments 171 views last activity

See the title basically. As far as I can tell there is no legitimate way to do this as there is no way to share progress between the Steam version, the only version where you can have legitimate legacy, and any other version. Therefore if you play the Steam version and you have a crossplay survivor in your lobby who has legacy it is always hacked, correct?3 comments 141 views last activity

Hello! New to the forum but have been playing DBD for a couple of years on console and looking to switch to PC. I am completely overwhelmed by the options regarding which type of PC to go for as I have no experience what so ever with them (usually just use laptops and tablets ect), so I'm curious to see if there is anyone here that could help out?

Today I stumbled upon this tidbit in the DBD wiki: Early on in the Game's life, hooked Survivors established a way to communicate a Killer's proximity to the other Survivors: Hanging still from the Hook means something along the lines of: "The Killer is far enough away or preoccupied with something else, you can come and rescue me!"

The title is worded weirdly, I get it. My internet happens to drop occasionally, sometimes when I'm in a match. Can't predict it. Is there any way to like differentiate between an internet connection drop dc or regular dc?

I just bought Spirit's DLC and played a few matches with her today. I'm trying to think about some really good perks to use on her for when I have a larger pool of killer perks to choose from, because I've only bought three killers so far: Spirit, Oni, and Plague. I don't know if some perks don't work while she's phasing. As an example, can I see healing survivors with Nurse's Calling while I'm p5 comments 641 views last activity

hi! i want to get a killer - dlc or licensed - but i'm not sure which one. I know killers are subjective to play style, but I'm honestly open for any kind of opinion on which I should get! I enjoy playing killers that take skill, but not too long to learn. I like to finish games rather quickly, without being too unfair (as of right now, I main Spirit).

Has anyone else experienced lag issues on the PS4? I have been on second hook and mashing the struggle button when all of the sudden the game has a quick freeze for a millisecond and it interrupts the struggle and I die. Also, if there is a gen skill check when some one is downed or hooked. I play in the states and have decent internet also.0 comments 31 views last activity

I'm asking this for the "dwight the brave" challenge. It says " hide within 10 meters of the killers for a total of 60 seconds ". Does just not being in a chase within 10 meters of the killer count as hiding or do you have to crouch or something?3 comments 2,331 views last activity

You already read the question above. Do you think they're going to keep PC between steam-windows store, and Console between ps4-xbox-switch? Do you think they should? In my opinion, yes, they should keep them seperated.2 comments 33 views last activity

Was hiding in a corner hoping he wouldn't see me. He did, and then AFKed there for 5 minutes, trapping me. The other survivors tried blinding him, making noise, dancing around him, and so on.

I have some questions after playing him a bit. Maybe some of you already tried the stuff I'm going to ask and can hopefully answer my questions. 1. Does Caging someone give BBQ/Dying Light etc stacks? 2. Do you get Devour Hope stacks when someone is rescued from a cage? 3. Does PGTW/Dead Man's Switch etc activate after Caging someone? 4.

Hi there. I play on PS4 and right now a player abused the game physics and made me hostage for almost the whole trial. I reported him after the match, but I was wondering how can I support my claim with footage of the match? This kind of behaviour destroys our hobby, and I want to do whatever is possible to guarantee players like this are appropriately punished. Thank you for you time.1 comments 31 views last activity
