My question is can you only get the survivor masks by playing survivor and killer masks by playing killer or is the mask you obtain completely random no matter which side you’re playing? I really want to try and get them all but I feel like it might be easier to achieve by playing killer since survivors have to escape to get their mask. I hope you can get them all no matter what side you play on.2 comments 31 views last activity

Feel free to disagree, I'd actually genuinely want to know if anyone has experienced this perk differently. Is it just me though or since the nerf after PTB before going live has this perk become redundant.? Scavenger seemed alright but now it feels like you'd just get more value out of 'built to last' over this perk. You need to deplete the toolbox, then you need to hit GREAT skill checks 5 of t1 comments 22 views last activity

I have always wanted to voice a survivor character in dead by daylight, and I would say I'm pretty talented in making visceral noises and such, all the screaming and pain noises. I just always wondered how I could go about doing all of that because I haven't really seen casting calls before for the game maybe I'm just not looking hard enough.5 comments 912 views last activity

I was in a match where the killer had to drop me due to teammates bodyblocking the hook, while my wiggle bar was maybe around 50-60% (not sure). However, upon being picked up again I immediately wiggled free as if I had used Decisive Strike. But I was pretty sure that they could have still hooked me since the hook was right in front of them, and I thought that wiggling free would only occur if3 comments 61 views last activity

Will Killers be able to perform a “Breakable Wall” Break Action on the blocked Vaults to remove the entity block? Or will certain Vaults just be a “screw you”, like the chute vault on The Game?3 comments 52 views last activity

From my last five games on dead by daylight, I’ve had this strange glitch, where, out of nowhere randomly for up to 10 seconds from what I’ve seen I would just slow down to a snails pace. This is it made my games very and fun and I’m contemplating never playing the game again I’ve tried multiple things to try and fix it. I’ve closed the application and re-opened it, and I even uninstalled and rei0 comments 41 views last activity

My game crashed multiple times Today- and Yesterday and the game thought i did a dc. The timer always increased since Yesterday first 1, then 5 and two times 15 Minutes. Im worried that it will always increase. So does the Timer reset sometimes? It would suck to get banned for a Hour or more or even permanently because of crashes.1 comments 52 views last activity

I read some people saying that in the past they’ve had characters and cosmetics discounted as part of the anniversary event. Has BHVR stated if this is going to be a feature of this year’s event? I’ve been saving my shards and I’ve got shopping fever.0 comments 41 views last activity

I’m talking about the scenario where your bear trap is activated and she sees you, but instead of chasing you off the box, she simply crouches and follows you. When she does this, you won’t be in chase so the timer still ticks. She’ll let you do the box but then down you right before you finish. She can either hook you again or carry you until you wiggle off, and then she can repeat it until you2 comments 122 views last activity

So with the new update we can now hold a special item in addition to a med-kit for example. My question is how do you switch between the special item and a med-kit? Example: holding a med-kit, pick up the new EMP thing. Both are now in my inventory but it won't let me use my med-kit. Is there a button to swap which item you want to use? I play on Nintendo Switch.2 comments 7,883 views last activity

It seems extremely bad tonight. I just played x4 games in a row. 1st: Three anonymous named players (I am killer Trapper) and they are able to outrun me in a straight line, all three of the anonymous player, I cannot physically catch them. 2nd: I tried survivor and a nurse player with 0 perks was able to find me and my team mates while hiding and zero in on us with no information.

Survivors put into the dying state by your basic attacks are not revealed to other Survivors when they are standing outside of a 32/24/16-meter range. Survivors put into the dying state by your basic attacks crawl 50% slower for 15 seconds, and their recovery speed is reduced by 25%. During this time, Survivors are affected by the Blindness status effect. ----------------------------------1 comments 22 views last activity

Hello everyone, As said in the title i have been playing DBD since 2020. What brought me into DBD was a Video in 2019 of a Streamer playing as Nancy Wheeler, which immeadetly got my Attention since i was really into Stranger Things at that time and since today, she has been my Main in the game. Now, for the Killers, i had absoloutely no clue whom to main. It was basically, take a guess and if y3 comments 51 views last activity

Hello, I play on a laptop, and ever since the new update, my game keeps crashing out of nowhere. I play on low graphics and resolution scale. I tried to mess with in-game graphic settings, but it didn't provide much help, so I uninstalled and reinstalled the game. For half a game, everything ran smoothly until the game went to windowed mode for a split second and crashed. The picture with Claud0 comments 41 views last activity

So since the newest update my game stutters whenever I enter the fullscreenmode. In windowed mode everything runs perfectly. In addition to this, when I was lowering the graphics nothing happens. I already reinstalled the game and change some resolution and fps settings in the engine and gameusersettings data, but the problem is still there.

Hi there! I visited this forum some time ago and I was pretty sure there was a section for artwork/fanart (since I also submitted stuff for it). But now I can't seem to find it again and I don't want to submit to the wrong category :') I haven't found any official info on posting fanart either - so if anyone knows anything about this - help would be highly appreciated!! Thank you :)1 comments 31 views last activity

After the new anniversary chapter came out, I played a few games and in those games, acouple of the killers were using Surge/Jolt. Whenever it would activate while I was on a gen, I would scream. I'm not sure if the perk got a buff that wasn't mentioned, or if this is a bug. Last thing to mention, I know for a fact it wasn't Eruption or Infectious because when looking at the killer's perks, they1 comments 81 views last activity

Due to some sort of insane bug, people are encountering massive black screen flickering and their screen resolution changing mid match, with the latter suddenly causing massive frame drops after being fixed (I lost 80 fps after putting my resolution back to normal). These bugs are making the game completely unplayable for some people. Has anyone found a workaround yet (and if any BHVR employ1 comments 801 views last activity

Hello, I only have a problem with this game, I have 32 ram and a 3060, when I open the game the resolution drops to 600p and the game looks horrible, it doesn't matter what graphic configuration I use in the menu, this is not solved, I also saw guides from internet and changed some files but it still doesn't work0 comments 11 views last activity

PC-Steam- I just waited 24 hours for a time ban that wasn't my fault to be over and now my game closed itself mid match causing me to have to wait 48 hours to play again. I'm over this crap. Why hasn't my timer reset?! Get rid of the time ban or I'm done with this game. There's too many connection issues to have a "DC penalty" right now.

Hi all, I logged in just now and got the Deathslinger Pecan Crown (head) anniversary year 4 cosmetic. From my understanding, logging in daily will reward you with one different piece. However, there are 4 outfits (David, Wraith, Deathslinger and Claudette) which is a total of 3x4=12 pieces. The giveaway lasts for a week. Aren't we days short then, to acquire all pieces?

Yeah so when exactly do the anti-camping changes go live? It was mentioned in one of their recent videos, and I thought it was coming with the Singularity. But I guess not. It was incredibly disappointing being facecamped my Bubba for my first match of the new chapter :/ Do they have a set date for this update? I couldn't find any info on it, Thanks :]1 comments 41 views last activity

So, I just recently bought a PC, and I have also purchased DbD on sale. However, I have done quite a bit of grinding on the PlayStation, so I am just wondering if it has ever been stated or denied whether or not there will be Console and PC cross progression. Probably will never play again if not. Thanks in advance!1 comments 51 views last activity

I’m curious what happens if you purchase content you already own? So, a while ago I got Mikaela and Jill through my first auric cell purchases. It was only recently that I noticed there are some chapters that have an exclusive cosmetic or item only through purchasing the whole chapter, and there’s a great sale going on in the Nintendo store on DLC. I planned on getting Leon and Nemesis too eventu2 comments 71 views last activity

Wish I could ask the mods this, but how come we havent gotten any new profile icons of the new killers, survivors and perks in such a long time? Not even original content? Will we ever see them? They added new icons for Meet your Maker so its just a bit puzzling. If they've already answered this then please let me know.3 comments 61 views last activity

So i got playstation plus extra because if you had that or premium, it would allow you access to play dbd, which is one of the reasons why i got the extra tier.

Firstly, I’m seeing a lot of complaints (I know this isn’t new in this community but I’m noticing it’s a lot more than usual this time). Some players are saying they don’t play as often anymore and some even decided to quit the game. So what exactly happened? Any survivors/killers worth getting? What are the best perks currently? Is the meta still the same? Any gamepl6 comments 102 views last activity
