I am a long-time DBD player and I decided to make this thread because it's something I feel pretty strongly about. I believe there is an error in the general attitude of the DBD community. Keep in mind, I am a roughly 50/50 Killer/Survivor player. I love the mechanics and dynamics of both sides. Almost every time I play as Killer, in the after-game chat I get somebody who whines about my "camp

If any devs do read this then please even if you don't think some of these are good ideas at least put them on the test version and see how people like it. From my understanding this is a survival horror game. Then why is it that killers in general are so underwhelming. You only win games when the surviors are bad not when your good. You can do everything perfect and still lose. From playing for a

For example, I have three different builds for Leatherface. Rather then switching perks and add ons every time I want to use a different build, I could save the builds, and switch them at the touch of a button in the character select screen.

I don't really know where to post this. But I don't usually find other players that go above and beyond to use hate speech and be an overall toxic person. And I don't want to play with those people, I'd rather have slower que times if I didn't have to deal with these folk. But I didn't see an option to block them. Do I have to go to steam to do that? Why isn't there an in game option? Reporting i

I've gone afk a few times as killer, not many times at all, to try to drop my rank because I am new to the game and was facing very difficult players and it was not fun. Is this okay to do..? I asked someone who has thousands of hours in the game and they told me it is fine to do. I have not purposely went afk again because I want to make sure it is okay to do.

I confirmed by his achievements, i need a mod...

This double standard really pisses me off. Lag switching is ######### bad, we all know that. But its completely fine for survivors to be EXTREMELY laggy, and barely uncatchable, and gain a simular advantage to lag switching from whatever it is they do to increase their latency. Both need to be bannable offences. Its funny how the lag is very selective too, and only occur's during chases or when t

If I clipped a game where the survivor was teaming with a killer to farm the other 3 of us, how do I submit the video as proof they were cheating?

Uhh, anyone else lost their Scorching BBQ Event cosmetics after swapping back to normal from the PTB?

Ive seen a lot of forum posts with mixed opinions on if you can get punished for using wiggle/struggle macros and most of the posts are 1+ years old. Has there been any recorded bans of them? I don't wanna get banned but at the same time I don't wanna ruin my keyboard.

Since this topic just came up again, Id like to know what the community thinks about this feature. Would you like to see the introduction of crossplay (with the ability to disable it, apparently necessary for xbox folks) https://www.strawpoll.me/17525698 Feel free to explain why in the thread

Since the new hotfix my game is blurry as hell and i would like to know if i follow this guide could i get banned? https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1872719580

Title says all. You wake up, wearing only the clothes on your back, in The Entity's realm with your fellow survivors. What do you do?

The title pretty much sums it up, but: What is the most blood points you've ever earned in a single match... - and what survivor or killer were you playing to obtain it? Any perks/offerings/etc that affected overall gain? The most I have EVER made on DBD was about 181,000 in a match as huntress - using the "machine gun hatchet" build with multiple party streamers active and just tunneling the

Hello. I played a match with one guy who insulted me after the game. I reported him by in-game report system. I got him in another lobby and happened same thing. I want to know, when someone insult me before the game and he left the lobby what can I do? There is no report system.

I played today for 4 hours DBD only Killer today, and I play a very fair killer. I always try that everyone is having his fun (because the other 4 also paid for the game). I dont camp, I dont tunnel (at ALL!), I dont use ANY Addons on Nurse or Hillbilly and I dont use the OP stuff on Spirit e.g., I try to take Party-Streamers if I can (because I also play survivor and know that BPs are not balan

Hi guys. I want to ask ALL of you if you want to see Ultra rare perks (pink color) again. If yes, write a comment. Btw, Ultra rare perks were removed from game and were changed to Very rare perks (purple color), because Devs were lazy to fix one bug that prevented you to get ultra rare perks to show up in the bloodweb until you unlock all the other tiers.

Could we finally see the option to NOT vs SWF? Like the option to vs Solo Survivors or vs SWF with different ranks? Perhaps even give the killers a small BP bonus 10-20% as an incentive to go in with the Deck Stacked against them with SWF?

On both ends. As a Survivor, when a Killer is near, the loud music can be godawful and cause misconceptions in what the Killer is able to hear, as well as obscure your ability to hear them (except for the Spirit because dear GOD she is loud.) As a Killer, it can very easily cause you to lose track of a Survivor when your eyes fail you. I honestly feel that ears are more important that eyes in DB

As a Pig main, I think they need buffs. They can't really "stall" the game when survivors can remove them on the first box and even remove them when they aren't even activated. Not to mention that they heavily rely on generators being completed and I don't see how that's a good thing. Here are my buff ideas, Survivors can no longer remove the RBT when the trap isn't activated. (Or make Rul

like the title says how do i get purple pants for claudette ?

I love that there are licensed killers in this game, I really do. There’s just something awesome about playing as your favorite movie slasher. Like most people, I have a few that I’d love to see in Dead By Daylight.. Jason Voorhees (The Undead), with Camp Crystal Lake as the map, and Tommy Jarvis as the survivor. The Creeper (The Monster), with the the last town in the first Jeepers Creepers mov

I LOVE Thrill of the hunt. But I swear, like every 3rd match or so (at rank 2 or 1), there is at least one survivor in my game who taps the hex totems (I use ruin + thrill) VERY QUICKLY (could also be a macro) so I get spammed with all these explosion notifications. I am chasing one survivor - someone starts spamming me I get to the totem, chasing the spamming one, another one (survive

There is a malpractice that afflicts this game: it is called "lobby dodging", the claim of some players to choose the opponent or the opponents according to their comfort. In competitive and ranked matches such a conduct should not even be conceivable, instead it rages undisturbed. Survivors and killers are equally responsible for these abuses, which greatly increase waiting times and create unnec

I think the endgame sounds promising but I don’t know how this would negatively effect those swf who will hold the game hostage. They could just stand in the gates for 2 minutes 59 seconds as is right now. I think this would be a fair change for the game. Now there are behaviors that should be discouraged for both killer and survivors.

Before I get into the downward trend, and the reasons for it from my experience of talking to other players. I will post the chart that shows what I'm talking about. https://steamcharts.com/app/381210 You can clearly see a 27% loss of players over the course of the last 2 months. This coincides with the release of Legion. But it's not the Legions fault, per say. That

We need need NEED some sort of penalty or ban for disconnecting. I have never seen such a piss poor community more than I have this game. I play red ranks as both survivor and killer and I wish I was kidding but i played 4 games in a row as killer last night and someone had disconnected in ever single match I had played. And just now I played 6 games in a row as survivor and someone has disconnect

In your opinion, which role has access to more Crutch Perks?

Scenario: Me, Killer Doctor. SWF in my game, but not a needed variable for the scenario. Hatch standoff. Using my Rapid Fire Mouse (Speedlink DECUS SL-6397-BKBK) in shock mode so i spam the M1. Survivor try a jump - instant grab cause M1 Spam. Result: Afterchat was full of lagswitch and speedhack blames. All 4 Friends reported me for speedhack they said. In my opinion i did nothing wrong. The

Which exhaustion perk is better out of these two? I ran BL when I first started playing then tried out DH for a bit and fell in love with it. Then I went back to using BL and now I think I’m going back to using DH, I just can’t seem to make up my mind lol I like them both very much. Which do you use?

This is getting a little bit ridiculous now you start a match and still 5 seconds later ruin is gone and gen rush begins. The totem placments still really need to be reworked or something needs to be placed so that the killer is getting a benefit of a perk being removed not just it's gone deal with it. I will say I have had a few really good placements but majority of the time it's in the middl

Obviously a lot of people dont like the new ds rework and I thought of maybe a better solution to what it currently is Decisive Strike . Using whatever is at hand, you stab at your aggressor in an ultimate attempt to escape. After being unhooked or unhooking yourself, Decisive Strike will become active and usable for 40/50/60 seconds. If hit within 10/15/20 seconds after Decisive Strike is us

25, 100 is just too low. I have been playing her today and yes, I probably didn’t get much bp because I am so inexperienced with her, but I usually get more bp as a survivor (or at least played 2 survivor games in that span for the same points) and when I play other killers I get more too. Plague should at least compete with Freddy and Doc for being the wealthiest in bp. It should be 75, 300 at L

Look at "Developer Activities" it says they are going to PAX East soon. (March 28th) after this event has passed surely everything will work itself out. All we need to do is wait, 'course with the matchmaking revert we're already waiting but nothing is perfect.

I like the new system. Yes depipping sux buuuuut... It punishes bad survivors much much more! Farming survs, not saving on hook, hiding staying in lockers, toxic bullying the killer, they give you nada, zip, zero, zilch. The change in how survivors play is 180. Now folks go after those on hook safely. They don't waste time click clicking that darn flashlight. There is much more team play beca

Was just DS'd because no survivors were an obsession. He then became that obsession though.

So i just had a game facing a billy and vaulted being completely on the other side and still somehow got hit by the chainsaw. Shouldn’t the chainsaw hit the window ledge instead of the survivor?

Since this addon is kinda boring/weak I decided to buff it! Black Incense A dark paste made of sharp osseous shavings. The inhaling of its foul fumes sharpens the mind's eye. Survivors' Auras are revealed to you for 5 seconds when they vomit. Dropped Pallets that have been infected for 10 seconds are instantly destroyed.

So EB games has the "Dead by Daylight - Complete Edition" available for pre-order with estimated release of June 30th, but doesn't show what's included. https://www.ebgames.ca/PS4/Games/764520 The optimization roadmap shows at least up to Chapter 14, so will it actually be "complete" or will there be more coming? I have people acting like this will mean the end of DBD bu

Thats what i think, they are scared to get all the complains in chat. They want to calm the waters before do something with us

Ds is horrible, they are giving a slug for 60 seconds so you can not use it, it was better to use perk unbreakble now. Thank you devs for this beautiful work.

For the entity's sake. It takes 5+ mins to get a match as killer. I am afk and waiting for the game to start to realise that 3 survivors immediately DC after I loaded into the match. They had steam names like "Plague or Legion = DC". This is unacceptable. Disconnecting and rage DCing is still not being punished and those entitled survivors ruin our gaming experience. I payed for this DLC, ffs I

I played as the Doctor because I hadn't in a while, and decided to just max their madness, then slug. No hooks (although I did hook a couple of them because I was getting bored with how long the trial lasted). I took NOED because I figured they'd easily finish all the generators and wanted to startle them a bit once they did, as well as having a more concise way of slugging at the end. I went ar

The glass shattering sound. And.... Pallet stun now resets your phase meter. Is this intentional? When will it be fixed? And yes....this has been tested several times.

Is it true that she now emits a sound when she starts phase walking to the survivor too? ######### thats just basically killed her, I can't see her being viable. Dear god, now she'll be so effortless to predict as survivor. @Peanits is this intended or a bug? Because it will suck if it's intended. Someone test this for me pls.
