Just a thought

  • It is not considered cheating. There is an official Dead by Daylight Discord channel which includes voice comm sections for SWF players.

    Edit: In case you're looking for a statement from someone official, here it is:

    SWF using Discord is not cheating

    SWF was always intended to be added to the game, the delay in adding it was purely down to not having the time to make KYF and SWF, so KYF was prioritised.

    Survivors communicating is not cheating...just because voice communication is not in the game does not make using discord cheating. We fully expect players to play together and be chatting on some form of voice communication at the same time.

    The game rules are clear, please do not call something cheating when it clearly isn't. This is something that's decided by ourselves.


  • Yeah, no cheating as confirmed by the devs - and actually they stated that SWF and therefore communication between survivors has always been considered to be possible despite it being a feature only introduced one month after release.


    also, you wouldn’t consider using a phone or even playing in the same room with two devices cheating, would you?
