Day 13!

Day 8:
Take a look at these posts—players from all over asking for African servers in Dead by Daylight, dating all the way back to 2019. From high ping to unfair gameplay, we’ve all been facing the same issues for years.
We love this game, but we deserve a fair experience too. The infrastructure is already in place—AWS and Google Cloud servers are here. Other games have made it happen, so why can’t DBD?
Let's make DBD fair for everyone, everywhere!

Could South Africa get servers soon please? There is an amazon data center here and plenty of South Africans play DBD it would stop us having to connect to EU. It'd be really awesome thank you
@Dem34888 said:
CIS countries and South Africa need their own server(s)
The only objective reason I see is that players from Europe / Africa / CIS countries are so few that if you divide them into separate servers, the que time will become unrealistically long for both roles@SoGo said:
So, bringing this one up again, since we just got new servers in North America and Europe.
Would it be possible to also add Middle East and Africa servers?
@SoGo said:
This could be solved with more servers.
There is STILL no server in the entirety of Africa, so ping being high is a standard.
Also, the Middle East region has some issues, not sure if those got resolved.
Not matching people from other regions with you for the sake of queue times would also help.
@SoGo said:
There is an issue.
You would completely disable the entire playerbase in Africa with this.
They have 0 servers there.
@CruelLimits1982 said:
But no South African ones I don't understand Africa is literally the only continent besides meme answers like Antarctica that doesn't have a single server people do play games on this continent btw its not a backwards jungle.

Thank you, Retro_Gamer for the support! You're totally right, it's not just Africa but other regions too! I can obviously only speak for Africa since that's where I live, but BHVR should really have a look at all their regions and servers and do something to help out their players who don't have their own servers.

A full week of asking, and we’re still here! African players just want the same fair experience as everyone else. Right now, we’re playing at a disadvantage—missing hits, getting unfairly accused, and struggling with ping that ruins clutch moments.
The infrastructure is already in place with AWS and Google Cloud servers in South Africa. Other games have done it—so why not DBD?
It’s time to level the playing field, BHVR. See you tomorrow. 😉

Day 6!
I'll just straight up ask if you think it's acceptable that so many of your players have 200+ ping, purely because you don't have servers for them?
It seems unacceptable to me!
See you tomorrow!
Love,

High ping doesn’t just hurt killers—it’s a massive disadvantage for survivors too. Fast vault? Too slow. Dead Hard? Pressed it, but the server disagrees. Dodging a hit? Guess what, you already got hit a second ago. Playing survivor shouldn’t feel like fighting the game itself.
African players deserve fair servers, just like everyone else. BHVR, the infrastructure is here—let’s make it happen. See you tomorrow! (This is Day 5 btw)
-
Agreed! It is unacceptable, especially from a company as established as BHVR. I appreciate your support <3

Seconding this, BHVR sorely needs to invest more in their servers. The community deserves better!
Agreed! Thank you for your support!

I agree. I am lower MMR solo queue and newer to the game. Since the update 38% of my matches have been all 4 survivors killed (in 81 games). That's more than a third of my matches where not one single survivor escapes. Face camping is rampant with the cool down on basic attacks so hook trading without the coordination of a SWF is nearly impossible. If a killer was face camping before, you could just do gens. But with deadlock, thana etc. face campers are easily getting 3 or 4 kills. The balance is completely lost and I am starting to lose interest. I used to play 50/50 survivor/killer so I'm not some survivor main here to complain. But I can't even play killer anymore due to the queue times. My options are either get destroyed and frustrated in solo queue, or just find a new game to play with my time because 10min queue for one killer match is too long. I am really sad to see my favourite game going down like this
