Power description updated to reflect change.…

PTB scoreboard HUD: A new discussion to a universal solution for stealthy killers
ill keep this short, but as i see many people discuss the new TAB menu displaying teammate perk loadouts and the killers power icon, a lot of the criticism stems from being able to see who the killer is straight off the bat. now this has pretty much been normalized via killer powers appearing the moment the trial starts…

Ghoul vault compromise
Now everyone is mad about the ghoul and weve nerfed her ability to vault since survivors can now walk through your collision mesh. Give me back my vaulting auto attack and in return you the ghoul gets bumped down to 4.4. Thoughts?

We are getting primed to have 2v8 put in permanently
Watching stream the 2v8 section was interesting they are adding play as you wait to the normal 1v4. I personally think is a sign that they are looking to have it as a permanent mode but are cautious to do so as they are clearly aware of how long the que times get. but the causal playbase love this game mode I think it…

Did my build do anything?
The build I'm talking about is healing slowdown with the Doctor. Distressing, Coulrophobia, Unnerving Presence, and No Quarter. Survivors don't heal in front of the killer, so I don't really know how my build is affecting the survivors. Is it doing nothing, something or is it making the game actually a lot more difficult?…

New Hex: Face the Darkness Bug
Survivors will keep screaming and leaving sound bubbles even while dead or sacrificed. Very distracting if you’re trying to find a rat and you’ve forgotten where you killed other survivors.

the animatronic survivor buffs are actually a killer buff
hi, I'm "that guy" that drains all the battery power trolling the killer. with this update, I can continue to neglect my generator duties and fulfill my fantasty of playing fnaf versus Pingtab himself. will we all die? sure. but all them bunnies start acting a tad ornery when you get into their business. they are shy…

Improved (Maybe) Way to See Team Perks
The new thing they added to be able to see your teammates perks is definitely an improvement, but I think it was not that greatly implemented. I say that because sometimes you need to know what perks your teammates have right then and there, but it's not always viable to have to stop and open up the tab menu to see their…

Wesker Fix Patch 9.5.2 Issue’s
To start off, I’m so very thankful for BHVR fixing some of the drastic issues that were extremely problematic to Wesker and his mechanics. However few things must be addressed and i’m doing this out of refining Wesker to help others and myself enjoy the Killer to the fullest extent without frustrations. Firstly, Wesker’s…

Do you think Dead Space, Siren and F.E.A.R. fit in Dead by Daylight?
I'm dumbfounded Dead Space, Siren and F.E.A.R. haven't collabed with Dead by Daylight. My guesses are F.E.A.R. and Siren aren't popular and Dead Space I guess it's difficult to negotiate with EA? I don't know. But those 3 games gave me life long mental scars and probably ruined me in some ways as a kid lmao. Shout-out to…

The Problem with Springtraps power on the Survivor Side, and potential fix (BATTERY ISN'T THE ISSUE)
I was dissapointed with changes to Spring-traps power. Battery was never a problem, the problem is there is no incentive to see where he is. He isn't concealed in stealth that often, and you run from him anyway when he gets too close and traversing the doors is just too risky, battery has nothing to do with any of those…

Fast vaults, I don´t get it
Hey there I hope you had a good easter days, I have a short question, because I don´t know if this is intended or not. From time to time when I play Killer I stumble above the following szenario. A Survivor stands close to a window like in shack and seemingly with no effort of running they do a fast vault without a single…

New Patch Notes: What are they aiming for the win rate for killers to be?
It seems like the amount of buffs to killers and hard nerfs to survivors continues as time goes on? The win rate is already between 55-60% for killers, leaning towards the higher side. If we continue to drive survivors into the ground, why are we expecting them to stick around?

Day 26 of the Krasue arc
OK so six times the amount of blood points apparently means six times the amount of grinding as in I may or may not have gotten prestige 19. In like two days… anyways the final day will be the vote on what killer I dedicate myself to next and would personally love some suggestions. I’ll probably go to prestige 10 or 15…

Excessive slugging - Holding the game hostage
I've had three killers today slug my remaining teammate repeatedly in order to search for me and furnish a 4K. I kept picking up my remaining teammate, and the killer kept knocking them down. This went on for 3 min, 5 min, and a knight kept us in toba landing for nearly 7 minutes. My kill rate with most killers is around…

Rampant cheaters
I played 9 survivor games this morning and encountered not one, not two, NOT THREE, but FOUR cheating killers. I got the terminator one, cheesehub twice, and some random anonymous clown. I turned the game off. What is the point of reports if they do absolutely nothing. Sure I get notifications of my reports finally having…

Am i the only one who encountered this in my games
Ive had a game (Survivor Game) where my teammate while i was on hook t-bagged and literally left me. Im not sure if i upset them in another game. I play Killer so I might of made them mad. No idea why. I could of made A mistake dearing chase and they wanted to call me trash. Im not that good on survivor but I have fun with…

intentionally 12 hook, never chase people off unhook, play a b tier, never slug even when theyre camping with flashlights they still teabag and stand at gate and flashlight click anyway? why should i even bother following their made up rules if theyre just going to act like toxic babies anyway? surv players are terrible…

A COMPLETE Critique of DIMINISHING RETURNS (And solutions)
INTRO: Let me first start off by saying, I am on the same side of the Devs on many of the goals they have set out for the game. One of these goals is halting over the top gen-rushing, as well as preventing problematic stacking values through Diminishing Return systems, and allowing safer designs of newer perks without…

Cheating is out of control
Just had a survivor instantly revive from the dying state. Survivor main. It's one thing to never address balance, it's another to never address blatant cheating. BHVR didn't quality of life anything. Waste of a year. Make the game server side to control this trash.

Endurance body blocking
You know I've been thinking about the ghoul vault changes and I think I'd be ok with them if I could walk through survivors with endurance. After all its the same thing, its a free hit for the other survivor and is thereby unfair.

Why survivors are like this
I said gg cause i was about to 4K and she unhook misteriously. Thought she had an unhook perk but after a moment i notice she didnt have any perk to unhook nor they have anything to give themselves luck to get out of hook. Is there any other way she could have unhook? and why are survivors so toxic about escapes, specially…

Ghoul vault collision
Survivors being able to walk through goul vaults is terrible since it actively punishes me for using my power in chase. Whether intended or not. I dislike it so ai am going to keep making noise about it until it is fixed.

Saves are kind of out of control lately
Mostly due to reset speeds+anti slug perks rising in the past few years, its become pretty easy for coordinated survivors to put the killer into lose-lose situations too often. WGLF and conviction alone counter slugging. Combine that with pallet saves, background player, stacking healing perks etc its pretty easy for the…

Are map related generator achievements buggged for anyone else?
In the past few days I've done the requirements for at least 8 'repair the generator in room X on map Y and escape' and no achievements are unlocking for any of them.

Security systems sound unrewarding for survivors
I make this post not to intentionally start a war.

2V8 Killer Criteria
First things first, I can't be too honest about how I really feel about Legion's removal from 2V8. I would probably get a warning from the mods for not being respectful, so I'll just say it's embarrassing to be a part of this community sometimes. I've lost a lot of respect for part of the player base that called for their…

Ping difference should be balanced out in the Code
Having a high ping is especially advantageous on killer and on survivor side it does not even matter that much. It should be balanced out in the code, because it cannot be the case that having bad net/ping gives you an huge advantage.

What YOU get WRONG about stacked healing builds
INTRO: I personally found it funny how many people misunderstood self-care back in the days.

Apparently, it didn't occur to people that a 32 second heal, only requiring 1…

Nintendo Switch 2
I understand there are no plans on releasing a Switch 2 update for Dead by Daylight, but I really hope BHVR will reconsider soon. The Switch player base might not be big, but there’s potential to grow this community with a decent port of the game. It’s unrealistic to expect Switch owners to play DBD, when there’s really…

The Unknown might need Kill Switched
For those who are not Aware The Unknown has Developed a new Bug. Im gonna warn any survivor not to be too Close To the Unknown when firing his UVX. He has a chance to do a M1/Basic and firing at The same time. And yes The M1 Counts as a hit. There is a chance of him damaging you with both his UVX and M1 Attack. Meaning he…

Be Careful with What You Wish For
With a lot of people debating the diminishing return update and worrying about Gen Regression perks not being nerfed by it, I want to quickly get your attention to the following statement; The HEALTHIEST meta in DBD is where killer regression perks are the strongest and where survivor's chase perks are the strongest. And…

In Response to WACEK; The Trickster REWORK
Let's start off by saying, I absolutely love what the Developers have done when it comes to Trickster. Not only have they added a lot of depth; they have also created a Trickster that is genuinely fun and fair to play against, as well as creating a killer that can be a monster when properly mastered. That is why, in…
