  • So i know Dbd switched to dedicated servers, but sometimes I think the killer is lagging because he teleports, swings at air, i get hit from 10 miles away, etc. I thought with dedicated servers, only the lagger suffers. Can someone explain whats going on? (its not me as I played swf with 1 other person in another house, he had same issues, and 2 other randoms in end game chat compalined)

  • Just had a game where I played against literal new players - I don't think they even knew the mechanisms of the game and I felt bad killing them. How do I help new players? I cant communicate with them to let them know I want to help, and I feel bad rekting new players - its a bad experience for everyone. Is there a way to restrict me from playing against people have 0 perks and just installed th

  • Every time (as survivor) I clear up a portal, I get white falling dandruff looking icons all over my screen for the rest of the game - is this a subtle annoying thing that is supposed to persist?

  • I think it would be super cool to implement a skill check battle between survivor and killer, with skill checks getting harder and faster until one side fails to hit it and loses. Fun applications would work for things that are currently not in a good place ie: Ebony Mori: Survivors you mori after the first one can engage in a skill check battle to avoid getting mori'd Hatch Game: Rather than l

  • Last teammate died and was in the dying animation when I found the hatch. I stood on top of it waiting for it to open, and the killer ran over, and while I was on top of it trying to jump in, closed the hatch. I always thought the hatch game meant to reward whoever found it first, or am I wrong? Is it skewed to allow the killer to find it later than survivor and still get the last kill?

  • If i get into a locker and am in the animation of getting in, and my ally gets hooked, does the killer see me entering the locker? Alternatively, if I am fully in the locker, can I leave as soon as my ally has been hooked, or do I need to wait 4 seconds? I couldn't find the answer anywhere - help!

  • I am a survivor main, and switched to killer. I've noticed that against SWF teams I get demolished. My only fighting chance is bringing in the OP items (prayer beads, ultra rare mori, etc.) and suddenly it feels like a fair game. Here's the true issue: The game play itself is balanced towards 4 solo players trying to play together with asymmetric information. This doesn't work when half the gam

  • 4 survivors start the game and hop on 4 generators. The killer finds one and starts chasing that one. The other 3 do gens. Is this gen rushing? If so, why is it rushing? What should the other survivors be doing? Looking for chests? Sabotaging? I am confused what Gen Rush means - what else should survivors do if not gens? I'd like to hear from the perspective of killers - what do you expect othe

  • I know its been out for a while, but I am curious to hear what the community thinks is the reason why spirit was buffed a patch or two ago - now you can't hear her spirit walk in her terror radius. I've always thought that Spirit had a lot of mind game potential (standing still at window and pretending to vault since standing is same as her vaulting animation), and that her spirit walk made it a

  • Yes, if you see a facecamping killer you go and do gens. I don't play dbd so I can sit idly by and hit space bar all day, I do enjoy chases and mind games. Had 2 games with a facecamping leatherface running insidious. Insidious has no heartbeat, which means no borrowed time - it would be great if BT triggered if killer is standing within 5m of hooked survivor so that there is SOME counterplay,

  • Just played ~20 games tonight, 3 of them I got a DBD error crash (and Im guessing/hoping those games were cancelled), and another 1 where I got the crash about 2 seconds into a match. This has never been the case until maybe 2 patches ago (I think alot of others also have similar issues). Im curious - do these count as DC's toward a temp ban? I send reports every time it crashes but 4 out of 20

  • twice today someone in end game chat says gg...... except they werent in the game! This isnt kill with friends, i don't believe random matchmaking can have spectators - am I wrong? What's going on?

  • Just played a game where I got facecamped after first hook. Don't really mind since my team got out, but sucks that I have to de-pip Easy proposed fix? Facecamped should award bold emblem points just like a chase would - after all you are distracting the killer. Ideally, as long as you did a little bit of other stuff, you could have a strong chance of 0 pipping. what do you guys think? This way

  • Ive noticed against any killer (viable or not) survivors are either just dcing immediately, or more often than not dcing on their first down. Ive been playing for a year now, and Ive never seen it so frequent (in my past 10 games, there has been 1 in 4 games, 2 in 4 games, 3 in 1 game, no dcs in 1). Did they change something? Is there no penalty for dc? im confused

  • Just played 2 games in a row where the whole time I had wriggle (a and d to break free) showing. I could not run, basically kept stopping when moving. I could do generators or heal fine, but had no way of avoiding killer. I dont have a video, but someone else recorded the same issue a few days ago: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=25ef_2Zgofc . Can we get this hot fixed? So annoyed to lose tw

  • Thought I might save others the trouble, although I do admit the DBD team responded really fast to my questions even when I submitted them over the weekend. I live in NC, and was on the outskirts of both hurricanes (Florence+Michael) this past month. I wasn't in the direct path and had work cancelled, so I played more DBD. I believe there was a period where I ended up getting 3-4 dcs, so I sto
