When some dbd players suggest the devs add a story mode & coop missions, a lot of people argue that it would split the playerbase and cause longer queue times. In my opinion, the reverse will happen in the long term, here is why. Every time a new chapter is released (example: Demogorgon), the fans of the movie in which the killer is featured try the game, which means a temporary massive incr8 comments 91 views last activity

So in the MMR tests and them explaining what they did I find the grade section most interesting as the devs clearly states it's a good system but the real issues is when good players dont play in awhile and get reset... So theory, grades is better because it's not just based of kills/escapes. However because of rank reset it can be an issue and without it people will often reach a certain point53 comments 701 views last activity

HEY, Here are a few suggestions on my part: Old Newspaper : the 33% effect should be added to the base package (kit). Under this condition, I would grant the add-on only a 25% effect. This would mean that the total effect would be 50%. The Mirror of the Mother : Is somehow mistranslated in the German version and causes more confusion than clarity. You should increase the effect by 1 level.0 comments 11 views last activity

The remaining survivors should be allowed to DC from the match after one or more survivors DCed. I am currently stuck in a match where: A survivor DCed within the first minute. A second survivor killed himself on first hook. The killer caught my 3rd teammate and allowed him to wiggle free. I kept working on generators. The killer comes for me and since there is no point in trying to play o1 comments 21 views last activity

Hellu, So if you ask me, I would love to see more variations of the RPD map. I really like this map because it's beautifully designed and has a great game atmosphere, and I'm not alone in that opinion. greetings1 comments 31 views last activity

If I read correctly, the matchmaking tests showed that players want SBMM removed. What percentage of the player base do we have to lose before BHVR removes SBMM? I also think it's ridiculous that the grades will no longer be visible in the post game. Did I read this correctly? Because if the tests shows that we don't want SBMM, I don't understand why it isn't removed. I'm confused. 😴11 comments 181 views last activity

Title. Currently on a break from DBD, games been a complete stale recently. I currently dont play killer, I dont see the point when half the roster cant complete to the players I'm versing especially with their full stacked meta. I mainly play survivor now but even this is a drag, I see hardly any killers but nurse and blight and why I dont mind versing any killer or perk its boring only seein23 comments 321 views last activity

One quick question based on the test results that I'm curious about, what percentage of players are at the MMR cap? For reference the devs talked in the article and previously about how the MMR has a built in cap where it treats everybody who is at or above that ceiling as if they were that same rating (e.g. everybody over 1900 is treated as a 1900 for matchmaking). They then go on to say they're35 comments 1,022 views last activity

I've just done the four man rancor mori challenge from Ohtofu. Yes, i need the first survivors to make mistakes and the last to accept to stun me (thank you so much by the way). But i did it. My build was: rancor/ nemesis/ no way out and knock-out. The addons were rules set n°2 and jigsaw's sketch. The map was Ormond. Knock-Out didn't do much to be fair...8 comments 252 views last activity

We need some creepy Victorian streets, perhaps make it a Blight map. I'm talking nighttime, lanterns, cobbled roads and old shop fronts. Maybe it could have a cemetery in there as well as an optional area. It would be soooo dope.2 comments 23 views last activity

Stealth For starters, she is a stealth killer with a lullaby. I... why? I don't understand. It's directional too. What's the point in stealth if they still hear a warning? Just remove it. Please. Don't worry about her overshadowing Wraith; he has plenty of other things going for it. Chase She has 1 trick up her sleeve in a chase.

I just saw the explanation for the matchmaking tests. First of all I would like to thank you for the transparency, this is something that could be done more often. Then I would like to share my thoughts again in an own post, especially my tjoughts about one special day. Everyone is allowed to see it differently than I do, I don't want to make the post to argue.

if you got a swf with these perks ggs. no scratch marks, self healing at a fast rate, iron will so you will never hear them and dead hard to just flat out ignore your attack. legit if all survs runs this you can't do anything. i just wish they would nerf all the meta perks so others can shine, the mmr is fine since you get bloodpoints for climbing up but mmr is kind of not balanced70 comments 1,221 views last activity

Hey, Much of what you read again is just complaining, as usual, instead of just being grateful to get such insights. I find the final report very informative and understandable to lay people like myself. I look forward to seeing what we can expect in the future and when these future changes will come into effect. greetings5 comments 91 views last activity

(Attention: long stuff ahead which probably no one cares about but I had to get this off my system now..) So.. Actually my first post here and I don't wanna brag, cause there is nothing to be proud of, but I want an answer.. Dear Survivors.. How can a match like that be fun?! ..

I couldnt get any value from keys since the nerf. 1, Has to be the last survivor since Hatch only spawns if everyone else dead or left(at worst case means that you have like 10-20 sec to find it) 2, Hatch has to be closed by killer(since it spawns open so no need for key), and then you can search for the hatch use the key52 comments 821 views last activity

dont get me wrong, i love a 4k as much as the next guy but im no otz, tofu, or gears and so i do get a little nervous about getting 4k streak games because i know its increasing my chance to go against the survivor gods that will roll me all game. 4ks feel good, but its really heart crushing when you try your hardest and get 0ks with few hooks.

Seriously I hardly ever see a console killer, I dont know what it is but nearly every killer is on PC I feel I only really see console survivors and even then the majority seem to be PC I'm sure I'm an outlier again in this matter but I just find it weird.

For me, it's blood pact. The counterplay for Twins is to stay with another person, and blood pact encourages staying together. BTW, I specify non-meta because CoH and DH are counterplay for nearly every killer.10 comments 81 views last activity

I made similar thread or two before I think (long time ago) but it crossed my mind again. For me when it comes to killers Billy still takes the cake. He looks so funny and goofy in some outfits. Him bumping into objects with chainsaw looks like it came straight from a cartoon. Hag m1 animation and voice Huntress makes during m1, also hilarious. Nemesis and Bubba have funny moving animations to36 comments 761 views last activity

I can't even have a polite conversation on this game anymore without half of it being #####ing out. Whats worse is not knowing what these 'hot words' are to avoid them so when you do try and have a civil or kind conversation it just looks like you're being mean and salty because half the text is blocked.

The devs said it as plainly and as simply as it is. High skill players want one thing while casual players want the other. You can't please both sides with one matchmaking system. Soooo... why not have two? Make a competitive queue that has more strict and fair matchmaking, and maybe gives 2x bloodpoints. Then have a separate casual queue with shorter matchmaking that's more lenient. It would hel0 comments 31 views last activity

I'm reading through this part of the matchmaking tests, and it sure sounds like you are going to sacrifice mid-level survivors to high-level killers so they have easier matches?10 comments 271 views last activity

Its been a HOT minute since BHVR said they were going to change the bloodpoint grind in the game yet literally nothing has changed and the grind only continues to get worse with every new chapter release. The current math is it takes somewhere around 6million bloodpoints to P3 all perks a single character.

I have more than 5000h and I am worried about the state of the game. The game is worse than ever. I would say that the problem is that people are told that playing as an assassin if you don't kill the four survivors you have lost and playing as survivors if you escape you have won. Proof of this is that they are rewarded with points, instead of rewarding the skill, knowledge and cunning of the pl23 comments 501 views last activity

Currently on a 53 game streak of trying to get 5 stacks on pentimento. Having to hope and pray that not a single boon is brought, and needing to wait till all five totems are broken before rushing to light all of them otherwise one might get broken is a struggle.

Otz recently posted a video where 70-80% of all survivors he went against for a few day span ran dead hard. How are the devs, notoriously focused solely on data, able to justify not ######### nerfing this perk? Are they going to let the player count reach zero? That's what it's looking like.

Hey, i think i found a potential bug/glitch. About 2 weeks ago, i played some DBD in the evening as usual. Me and my friends noticed something very strange: I sabotaged a hook in order to save my mate from being hooked. I had 0 hook stages at that point and did NOT have DS as perk with me, but i was injured and the killer put me into the dying state, while carrying my mate.

We can’t rework her power and here’s why. if you remove the ability to teleport through walls then she will be THE WORST killer in the game. You would have to buff her movement speed to normal killers, and probably give her a secondary power to compensate. if you remove the ability to blink twice she won’t be able to make it to gens quick enough. Meaning you can gen rush her, that’s not fun for38 comments 661 views last activity

It's not Ranks. It's Grades. It's not MMR. It's SBMM. There is no pay to skip the Grind. You can just pay for DLC to have the perks available to you sooner. You can just pay for the DLC, so you can spend Iri on perks in the Shrine for Bloodpoints. It's not pay to win. You can just pay for the DLC to have the perks than waiting 4+ months for the perk you need to appear in the shrine. The commu55 comments 1,161 views last activity

Have been playing a fair bit more survivor recently. While I think there would at least be a loose consensus on the killers people dread seeing, which ones make you happy to see? For me: Demo. Rare, tend to be pretty mannered. Plus, every Demo feels different - from the 'battle demo' types to the ones that ping pong all over the map. Strong enough to be interesting, but not overwhelming.

Firstly if you lower the MMR cap you're gonna be exposing players who aren't how do I say this "HIGH MMR GODS WITH THEIR 360 HATCHETS INTO FLICK BLIGHTS INTO NURSE BLINK ONE SHOT DOWN GAMERS" to this exact thing but you're also gonna be exposing players who aren't "DEAD HARD GODS WITH THEIR UNBREAKABLES INTO THEIR BOON CIRCLE OF HEALING INTO THIS DS OF INFINITE GLORY AND INSTA TBAG GAMERS" to peo17 comments 321 views last activity

You had the right matchmaking test right here. Should stick with this one BHVR it's nice for both sides being able to chill and not have a stressful time. There could be more Killer players and some Survivor players would want to maybe try Killer cause I still see people saying I don't want to try Killer it looks to stressful this could help those players12 comments 231 views last activity

Even with the MMR changes, it doesn’t solve the fact that an escape or kill is not a good indicator of skill in isolation. Even if other variables were purposely excluded due to there being a plethora of variables when it comes to skill in DBD, I don’t see why these 4 would be helpful in solidifying its meaning. In addition to kills/escapes, MMR will also account for: Generators Completed A s0 comments 41 views last activity

The devs posted the results from their recent matchmaking results and it’s an interesting read.
