  • I thought this game was supposed to have freedom of choice in character builds, even killer builds. I hate hex perks and yet the only way to prevent 3 generators getting finished in under 60 seconds is to use Hex:Ruin which survivors can negate almost as soon as it spawns on the map. Where is my non-hex alternative? Rework Thanatophobia's action slowing values so that keeping a mere one surviv

  • The few killer mains out there, tell me your rating of the killers in the funfactor value,not how powerfull they are. There's mine as an example: Huntress > Wraith > Billy > Nurse > Shape > Doctor > Leatherface > Hag > Pig > Freddy > Trapper

  • As of right now, Fork Knife is the only game I know of that has pulled this off...why? All my children play DBD, but it's a real pain in the ass because 2 play on XBone, and I sometimes take turns with the other. I'll concede that there's not real motivation to do this....sales are sales (And I'm not sure, after 2 years, it would be considered a sell point), and I'm sure there are a 100 thi

  • Needless to say, the killers are going through a stage ... frustrating. I'm going to cut to the chase, I want to summarize some changes that all killers need in order to be "competitive" again. Since we currently only see: Huntress, Billy and Nurse. Trapper: Start the game with 2 traps in your hand More protection in their traps (To avoid turning them off so easily) New tools so th

  • Are Shards being reset to 0 with 2.0.0, and is that why the message on the main discussion page is telling us this is our last chance to use them before 2.0.0? Clarification on this would be nice so we don't lose shards we could have spent before the update, but at the same time If they aren't being reset I'd like to know so I can save them for cosmetics. Any clarification would be greatly appre

  • So since SWF was created it has sturred some back and forth hatred between the users and killers beeing the dupe. So I decided to think about things that could help the situation in any way. My first thought was to check if I could come up with any form of nerfs for the SWF but eventually realized that no matter what kind of punishment I gave to the SWF to make it more fair for the killer I al

  • Starting 19:30 EST today (June 11th), the Shrine of Secrets will be disabled while we upgrade to our new systems for 2.0.0. Today is your last chance to spend your Iridescent Shards before 2.0.0. does this mean that the shards that I currently have will not transfer over in the new update tomorrow?

  • A small but maybe meaningful nerf to the doctor suggestion: Survivors don’t start gaining madness by his terror radius until they are directly shocked by the Doctor at least once. Once they’ve been shocked once they can begin passively gaining madness. Reasons: -Doctor doesn’t get a free “here I am” notification by just walking around and not actually looking for survivors -Better rewards survivo

  • Killers are what makes the game. I don't understand why survivors usually complain a lot when the strategy is usually the same for them. Hide, run in a circle to distract, do gens and then run out. I get that some people will say things like "get good" or ya know "mind game" but killers dont usually have control over the map when survivors know what to do which saddens me a lot

  • This is just a minor issue, but one that's kinda nagged at me since I first used Self Care. Since I don't know if was an intentional decision, I wasn't sure whether I should post it under Bugs or here in Balance Feedback. When you heal yourself, you gain Survival points, which makes sense, but any skill checks that appear while doing so reward Altruism points? The Survival BP category has alwa

  • So I've noticed a problem about daily rituals on console (specifically PS4). It's probably not a bug, however, it is an issue that bothers me. I've noticed on the PC version, players are able to collect any daily rituals that are completed regardless of whether two or three are completed. On the console version, you aren't able to collect a specific daily if more than one is completed. You are on

  • (This Perk Idea thread was previously posted on the Steam Discussion Dead By Daylight Forums, on Sept 19, 2017, and I am now moving it to the new, dedicated, Dead By Daylight Forums. I have revised a few of the perks contained within to either fit better with the current game environment or to better describe specific interactions appropriate to them, but the thread is otherwise identical to its

Killer: Your bloodpoints earned will now be spread among all 4 categories but you earn 10% less. Active ability: Send a echo of yourself in a direction for 2 seconds. (60/50/40s cd)

  • Can someone please explain to me why this is not a game worthy of a pip? In fact, it's barely a black pip!? Yes, I am salty :'( under the old system this was nearly a 2 pip! It was a long game, and having survived I get nothing for it??

  • I of all people understand that killers are underpowered some and against good SWF teams it can be a joke at times. BUt some of the stuff I'm seeing is just ridiculous. I'm a killer main and some of this stuff is crazy. Killers need more control and power. Wraith, Freddy and Trapper shouldn't be so low in the tier list. They need to be reworked. I get that. Just buffing certain add ons woul

  • I have been working on writing 9 killer concepts for 6-7 months. This killer concept is my favorite idea. I've gotten a lot of feedback on this idea much like my other ideas but this one was my favorite. I hope you guys/gals enjoy. Feel free to skip the lore.

Assholeface: Both mangled add ons, Nurses Calling (or Knockout) + Unnerving Presence + Distressing + Coulrophobia Slug everyone, it will take an eternity or two to heal up again, and watch them be afraid of healing within your gigantic terror radius once they realise you got nurses calling

  • You all who whine about the nurse beiing too strong unlike other killers etc, would you be happy if other killers would be buffed to be closer if not on her level of power ? So that you can see more than just billy, huntress, nurse at high ranks. Since they are already useful I won’t change them in this thread. Also I'm not saying that if played masterfully against decent survivors some of the

  • PTB shows us costumes and new characters with much higher clothing and detailing. So, are the older unlicensed characters getting updates to their base skins? I don't mean whole new outfits but added detailing to the original costumes and skin textures. Are we going to get reworked Mori animations for the older characters? It'd be nice if we had a randomized trio of different Mori cinematics f

  • So as a killer I just want to point out that using Ruin is basically required. If you do not use ruin against high ranking SWF then the game ends WAY to quickly. Well when you have 3 survivors doing the gen tapping it basically defeats the purpose of using ruin bc it doesn't really stall for much time, at that point you may as well use thantophobia. Also it really makes no since for a person to t

  • I know you have changed Myers tier 3 EW animation( in PTB) when Myers hits a survivor and inspects his knife. its the old animation and I can understand it makes animation different from EW1 and EW2 thats nice. But I wanted to say the way Myers hold his knife as first person in EW3 is just the same as EW1 and EW2 even though as 3rd person when survivors see Myers in EW3 he holds his knife upside

  • Since self-care is such a powerful and popular perk, it is always such a hot topic of debate of what to do with it to make it not feel like a crutch but also have a mechanic that has been in the game since launch. It seems as though every survivor mains’ first character was Claudette for the sole purpose of unlocking that game changing perk to every other survivor web (myself included). Therefore

  • So we all know in what position the Wraith is right now, and I thought of a pretty good buff since his power is pretty bad (You can see him with no problem whatsoever). I thought that instead of seeing his silouette when he is invisibile, you can't see it anymore, and you can only see the grass move and hear his grunts. What do you think? I played many matches with him at high ranks, but I am see

  • Hey! I'm wanting to dedicate a wall to this game and I have some stuff ready but I really want some official artwork for everyone. As time goes on, I'd like to add the new killers and survivors they put in the game as well. Anyone know a place to do this? Or if not, who would I try to get ahold of to maybe get permission to print off stuff myself?

  • Hi I am a ranked 1 killer and a ton of people that I know basically stop playing the game once they get to a high rank because it destroys the ability to have fun in the game. I have not played this game for 2 weeks even though I love it, waiting for the rank reset to update. Their are times when I would like to be able to try out new killers or work on them but my rank makes in impossible to do

  • Whenever I play SWF with my friend, after each game we have to re-invite one another. It's not a huge inconvenience but it would save time if we'd return to a lobby where we're already together rather than having to go to survive with friends and re-invite.

  • I went back into old DbD and my god it's so infuriating to play when all ya got are nothing more than Ochidouche wannabes that abuse every mechanic like the vacuum. I'm not playing until the actual update since this game is downright bull$hit as a killer. I miss the PTB. Bring it back please.

  • I prefer being able to mind game rather than loop. Take example the nurse. Looping doesn't let you win most of the times, yet good jukes that break line of sight will do the trick. However. Juking is extremely impossible. Against the doctor looping is nearly ****** NEARLY ****** A must. Wraith when he has the all seeing addons is also impossible to hide from if he knows where to look.
