I was watching another player on the cusp of green ranks and I noticed something very interesting. When they were at rank 13, the games were balanced with similar ranks and the player easily won and ranked up to 12 When they were rank 12, the games were mostly against all red rank survivors with a couple of rank 5s and 6s thrown in. The player lost, went back to rank 13 and the cycle continue1 comments 71 views last activity

Is this "Abusing bugs or errors in design to gain a competitive advantage?" The "counter" of face-camping doesn't work as survivors never sit there long enough for the hooked person to hit struggle, meanwhile two survivors can get half a gen done each.65 comments 2,211 views last activity

I jumped on one of @Peanits streams recently. To be honest I was hoping I might catch some insider information when his guard was down. (I didn't). Peanits played really well, he is a knowledgable and entertaining rank 1 killer who understands how to pressure gens and when to drop chases. He is very comfortable beating red rank survivors. However, The survivors he faced were nowhere near35 comments 1,991 views last activity

And lighten maps for killers. Is this acheivable? Would you want there to be a difference? Survivors complain about the maps not being as atmospheric as they used to be but killers complain when they can't see anything. It would even make sense in the Lore, the fact that flashlights blind killers and not survivors suggest that they are sensitive to light, as if they see better in the dark.5 comments 61 views last activity

With the new matchmaking, a new method will be used to match players. Currently survivor skill is measured as following": Repairs Escaping Not being downed Unhooking and healing When I mentally assess a survivor, I consider none of these when deciding who is going to cause me problems. Similarly, if I play survivor, I consider myself dominated when we all get chainsawed and slugged after8 comments 71 views last activity

On the live stream, the devs told us that there won't be a DS nerf because its usage is not at the same level as Hex: Ruin was. However, this is misleading: If one person in a match is using Decisive Strike, then all survivors are getting value from it. In fact an SWF team could save itself three perk slots by only one person running it, the killer will still avoid picking up the three non-obs0 comments 111 views last activity

If Dead by Daylight was in your top 3 most played games in 2019, you can see how many hours you played it here: https://www.playstation.com/campaigns/2019/wrap-up/ I'd love to know how many hours you all played last year. I played for 716 hours.10 comments 181 views last activity

In order to encourage people to play both sides, do you think it would be a good idea for two dailies spawn each day? Always a killer one and and always a survivor one? Personally I hate my own idea, as I recycle all my survivor dailies.3 comments 31 views last activity

Giving love to the Nurse, the Doctor and "The Chainsaw Bros" was mentioned in a stream not so long back. I know they "gave love" to the Spirit before her time but the first two are pretty much done now. What are we hoping for or expecting from these reworks?24 comments 451 views last activity

I've seen a lot of posts along the lines of "Ruin was fine as it was. I can hit Hex:Ruin great skill checks and if you can't, you are trash." These players tend to be red rank survivors. But I think more people struggle with them than red ranks realise. I've noticed a pattern as I learned to play survivor: Yellow rank was quite tricky. The other survivors were yellow rank like me and would14 comments 351 views last activity

With the incoming Ruin nerf, what simple options do we have that could be shoehorned in between the end of the PTB and the full release? Right now, gen speed is reduced for each person working on a SINGLE gen. Is it now time to slow down gen speed for the total number of survivors working on ANY gens? At least this way, at the start of the game when 3 gens are being worked on, the gens won't al6 comments 91 views last activity

Hi, my name is JawsIsTheNextKiller, and I used to be a Ruin addict. I haven't done Ruin for a couple of months now. There have been times were I have had a bad day, and I have been drawn to Ruin. With support from friends and family, I have fortunately stayed on the wagon. When I was addicted to Ruin, I would start my games and immediately get stressed, where is my Ruin? Do I run to it?

So Christmas is cancelled then? I've taken my Christmas decorations down and bunged up the Chimney to make sure Santa doesn't try anything silly. I've returned the presents I bought online as I am covered by the Distance Selling Regulations in the UK. The kids are crying and so is Mrs JawsIsTheNextKiller.

I want to decorate my hooks with the bloodied severed heads of survivors. Somehow the Trapper cuddly toys aren't really intimidating the survivors as much as I hoped. Arms, legs, torsos and David's groin are also options. Any chance we can have this?2 comments 42 views last activity

I understand WHY they are ditching events but I will really miss them. The Chinese New Year event was enjoyable, last years Halloween event was fantastic and having no Summer event was really disappointing. Future events are going to be more akin to this years Halloween event. Which didn't even feel like event. Even if the Halloween event had been exactly the same as last years, I would still39 comments 752 views last activity

Remember the last time they nerfed the Pig? They then released some great cosmetics for her. At the time I wondered if they would give her a buff at the same time. But then, why would they? They have never done it in the past. I'm sure some people may have been put off paying quite a lot of Auric cells for a newly nerfed killer. Why should we pay Auric cells for the wonderful Legion cosmeti9 comments 142 views last activity

After playing a ridiculous amount of DBD because of the bloodhunt, rift and now trying to use up all my pustula petals, I am now in a "boosted" position: If I play killer, I have to play red rank SWFs that are WAY above my skill level If I play survivor I am inevitably matched with another 3 solos who are probably in purple ranks just because they've played a lot this month, versing killers wh17 comments 263 views last activity

Can we get a consensus on this? I see high rank/low rank being used interchangably on the forums. Normally when something is described as high ranking, they mean the better ranks. But on the DBD forums, people often look at the number 1 being a low number, and call it low rank.1 comments 32 views last activity

Are you finding your AVERAGE game to match you against players around your rank? As killer, my instantly found games are 3-4 ranks above me. If I have to wait for a few minutes for a matchup they are invariably 5-6 ranks above me. (And often all load in at the same time, you can guess how those games go!) As survivor, I get ranked with killers straight away and am typically matched with kille16 comments 142 views last activity

I'm on PS4 so Nurse was never a thing.but I used to get 4 or 5 Hillbillies in a row, then someone random, then another 3 Hillbillies. Now they seem almost rare. What happened? Not that I am complaining. I hate Hillbilly. Except when I am Hillbilly.53 comments 1,093 views last activity

I played Doctor for the first time since the patch and the complaints people had who played on the vanilla PS4 are now evident on the PS4 pro. The frame-rates are terrible since the patch. But what is it specifically about him that makes his frame-rates lower than the other killers?3 comments 72 views last activity

Obviously this fluctuates because of the lunar cycle and events but what rank survivor do you "identify" as? I always rank up to purple every month but I only consider myself Green rank.18 comments 161 views last activity

I knew what I was letting myself in for when 4 survivors entered the lobby at the same time, armed with toolboxes and flashlights: Two Davids and a Jake could predict every quick hit and every lunge. They would look at me the entire time, seemingly always knowing were the walls of the brand new Hawkins map were. I couldn't counter their jukes by waiting, feinting, walking backwards or strafing.35 comments 601 views last activity

After all the complaining by survivors that killers lobby dodge, have you noticed that survivors with pings of under 50 are lobby dodging now that they can see the ranks of their team mates? Double-standards.19 comments 251 views last activity

I know this has been mentioned many times but BHVR tweeted that the game is free to play at the moment and I am seeing lots of games were two red ranks survivors are teaming up with a rank 18-20 and destroying brand new killers at rank 19/20 with one perk. Do you not want these new players to buy the game? In what world should red rank players be allowed to use this exploit. This IS an exploit23 comments 361 views last activity

Yes I know that survivors are just skins and anybody can use any perk. But lets be honest, there is still a survivor tier list. I'm more concerned about a Nea than a Quentin, Steve and Nancy don't scare me (yet), Ash is no threat any more and threads have been posted previously on how all Jakes are all useless. What is your survivor tier list?15 comments 451 views last activity

Unfortunately though, I was playing survivor in all ten games. I'm at the point where I have played so much survivor this month I can admit to being "boosted". Unfortunately I cannot drop back to green ranks because despite not managing to get a single escape all weekend, I am still pipping more than I am depipping.

Time and time again we get the same posts. Nerf NoEd, nerf Ruin.

I have abandoned leveling up certain survivors because I did not want to pollute other survivors bloodwebs with bad perks. Ace's perks are all terrible so he's stuck at level 35 (because the only perks I can pick are both teachable). Quentin is stuck at level 40 because he had one perk I liked and two that I didn't, so now I cannot level him up without picking unlocking a bad teachable. Did an8 comments 271 views last activity

If, on a failed skill check there was a 100% chance to prevent the explosion, would that be the worst idea in the world? It certainly wouldn't make it meta, but it would certainly stop me from ruining other people's games with my incompetence and help newbies out.29 comments 591 views last activity

With possibly nine new perks, I am concerned that at least one of them will break the game like MoM and DS did. Are you confident that we have seen an end to perks coming out that will break the balance of the game? Would you prefer to see underpowered perks that get buffed later on?31 comments 471 views last activity

I understand that currently too many people are playing killer so I have to wait. But if I switch to a filthy survivor, I STILL have to wait (but not as long). Is there a shortage of both killers and survivors? PS4 Europe if that helps.8 comments 211 views last activity

When playing Hillbilly, I often have to be looking at the survivor and keeping my eye on the chainsaw charge so it doesn't hit 100% until I am ready. In the heat of a chase, it can be tricky to do both at the same time. Are there any audio or visual cues I might be missing or do you just get used to the feel of holding an 85% charge? Similarly, is there another way to tell if Leatherface's cha9 comments 81 views last activity

All my killers are at level 50. I like to be fair and distribute the bloodpoints roughly evenly (except when I am struggling to get my favourite perks). I don't understand why every level above 49 is called "Level 50" considering that the levels currently go up to around level 180. What's the point of even giving them level numbers if they stop counting after a while. I want to know who I hav5 comments 331 views last activity

What are we expecting from these Doctor changes after the Nurse nerf? Will he be buffed or nerfed? I think he's another killer that suffers from similar issues to old Freddy, in that he can seem overly strong to rank 15 survivors but weak against good survivors so it could go either way.18 comments 1,021 views last activity

Currenly the ban system is: if you break a rule you are banned for 24h -> 48h -> 1w -> Permanent. This seems reasonable, until you consider that recently, people are not getting banned for using the recent exploits. The problem is that anyone could reasonably argue that they didn't realise that were performing an exploit. Many players are not using the forum and I would imagine that12 comments 221 views last activity

Are there any score events that people think have been missed? I think a huge one that should be added, is one for healing downed survivors back to the injured state. It is almost as risky as an unhook but is barely rewarded if the survivor has healed themselves to 99% (or whatever the max is)0 comments 51 views last activity

I had not played Trapper for a while and now going back to him I've started stepping in my own traps A LOT. It used to be a very rare occasion that I would be so clumsy.

If I play survivor, I consider less than 10K as survivor a BAD game. Mrs JawsIsTheNextKiller says anything less than 20K as survivor is a BAD game. When you watch your survivor score counted up at the end of a match that did not go as planned, do you have a "please be above x bloodpoints" target?12 comments 761 views last activity
