Some people don´t want to adapt am I right?
Hello everyone, just a short question (and I guess I will get the answer at the count of downvotes as always…) I am a gamer for a long time and in most of the games I have played adaptin to the meta was kinda the fun part of the game. To many carrys? Play an assassin!, To many trap cards play trap card counters and so on.…

I really wish they had gone through with the second finisher mori Idea.
do killers really need the ability to Mori all 4 survivors in a match? it makes them more annoying then anything. And having a mori be the finisher to a match works great. Yes we have that ability now but they should have gone all the way with it.

Tweaking > Delaying (Recent PTB Changes)
Would it be better if they instead of Delaying the Anti-Tunnel and Anti-Slug They instead tweaked it and Republished? it is a PTB after all they could just release different versions with different stats maybe even different mechanics and Let killers and survivors test it to see which version should go public but it's just…

Is DBD Supposed to be Competitive
With the recent QoL patch being rolled back, I'm curious what DBD is. I dont see it being like League of Legends competitive ranked queue. Although since it has a ranking and MMR that means it's not a party game? So what is DBD. Is the point to see how good you can get or how theoretically high you can go? Theres no ladder…

Why a Doctor Who or SCP chapter wouldn't be easy to do
So I sometimes see a few posts saying hey Doctor Who or SCP would make a great chapter which I'm all for but one little problem comes to my mind for both. Killer selection. Now both IPs have a good amount of choices but of course BHVR would want to go with the most iconic. Rough estimate for killer choice Doctor who would…

Why the hype?
Maybe I'm the minority here but I just dont get the appeal of 2v8. I kinda hate it lol. I just can't wrap my head around it to be honest. Whats the appeal of being ganged up on by two killers and being double tapped? I mean, I can see how the chaos could be amusing for awhile but I can't take this mode seriously at all.…

Pig Mains, has this ever happened?
I'm trying to understand how this happened. Meg's reverse bear trap timer ran out, and Claudette's timer is just a few seconds behind. And yet, despite having slightly different timers, they both died simultaneously. And neither of them were chased to pause the timer. So how does this happen? I'm just asking for my own…

No more 2v8… time to uninstall again (I have a suggestion)
I’ll get straight to the point: This game desperately needs an alternative mode to the standard 1v4. There are too many killers, too many survivors, and—above all—WAY TOO MANY PERKS. Every update adds more, and at this point it’s impossible to keep track of them all. Even the perks we already know are constantly being…

Why is there a problem with slugging/tunneling when survivors can taunt and stand at the exit??
Makes zero sense to have the killer punished for an unspoken rule while survivirs can show bad sportmanship by taunting the killer. Survivors got a wide variety of ways to stop the killer, survive etc. But gets salty when a killer slugs them or tunnels to the point its being considered to now a punishable offense. Best to…

this pic was 4/5 iterations in the making thanks for the dream come true
2v8 is wrapping up. I admit I was on a bit of a break lately as I've been enjoying helldivers, rivals and midnight suns lately but I managed to find one entire friend to geek our with on the very last night. I know things are a bit hairy right now, but this 2v8 was a dream come true for me. thanks BHVR for making it…

How is Mute Focus still not fixed?

The DBD Community has a "Win at all cost" problem.
This has been something that has been on my mind for a while but has come up again with the 9.2.0 PTB. I already spoke my mind about what I think about the new content and the changes being made but if you didn't read that, here's the TLDR, I think the anti-tunnel and anti-slug systems are a good thing in spirit, they were…

Is there any way to counter constant aura-reading apart from rushing gens in solo queue?
Please don't say distortion, literally tokens now burn out completely for me during chase as I get them and the moment they start recharging the killer breaks chase and goes somewhere else and the process repeats itself, I spend the game constantly recharging one token that gets destroyed the instant I have it again. it's…

How to Make DBD Fun! (NEW GAME MODE IDEA)
Intro I think we really really need a DBD classic mode. This mode would be like the old DBD, but polished up. It would be a more simple and nostalgic version of DBD, more beginner friendly, more immersive, and for many, more fun. What it is Old DBD where we have the old graphics, old maps, old lighting and old movements,…

9.2 Patch Workshop
Trying to make a patch rework that (ideally) has less problems compared to the previous iteration of the 9.2 changes. I'm looking for critique more than anything here, as this is a workshop. I don't want to add to the floods of suggestions without getting some opposing views. Me and my perspective of the game: I play 60%…

Why are games vastly harder recently?
Out of my past 20 matches, I've won maybe 6-8. Back to back to back 4 hooks 3 hooks 5 hooks, 4e 4e 4e. Infinite pallets, god window, god window. It genuinely shocks me that anyone that plays survivor is yelling to the high heavens that the game is killer sided. Are we playing the same game? There such an ungodly amount of…

Why are people crashing out on these forums about the changes being delayed?
There are literally hundreds of videos and thousands of posts demonstrating, with concrete evidence, why the current iteration was not good. This wall of evidence was so thick that BHVR made a statement a couple of days into the PTB indicating as much. Objectively, it should not be going live until these issues which,…

[Fan Killer Concept] Mavka — The Whispering Wraith (Ukrainian Folklore Inspired)
Fan Chapter Concept: Mavka — The Whispering Wraith Inspired by Ukrainian Folklore Lore: In the shadowed heart of the Carpathian Mountains, where the trees grow twisted and the wind carries ancient songs, there lived a girl whose name was lost to time. She was kind, radiant, and deeply in love with a hunter who wandered…

Why do killers always get what they want when 4x more survivors are needed to sustain the game?
BHVR you are just shooting your own game in the foot by rolling back the anti slugging / anti tunneling changes that non-biased players have been wanting for YEARS. Why roll them back because of a loud minority of killer mains? Survivor is becoming increasingly frustrating with bad killer design (clown, kaneki, nurse,…

Teammates not helping complete the objectives
out of 10 matches tonight I only had one good team that actually seemed like they knew what they were doing. The others just hiding around. Solo btw. Can you all start addressing these useless players? Completely ruins a solo persons game when they are just throwing the match. Like come on now. Hiding and not doing…

Am I the only one who is tired of this?
Almost any major change to the game doesn’t make it past a PTB. Were those the right changes to fight tunning. No they weren’t and some of us knew right off the bat. However since they canceled them it’s been all over social media that the community saved DBD by complaining. When the reality those changes were never going…

Damage 15 generators in a single match? Really?
How. Like, actually, how? Do the devs expect you to just throw a match and run around with oppression kicking every gen you see?

What do you all think about the new perks?
Now I'm a survivor main so I can't comment too much on the killer perks but they seem kinda mediocre but I can comment on the survivor perks. Ghost Notes: this perk is 100% getting nerfed. No way is their perk making it to live as it. It's a good perk bordering on annoying and broken. I just hope they don't completely make…

Hyperfocus
I have been using a full gen rush build and started using hyperfocus in every match, but I was accused of cheating by a killer, who said "nobody can hit those skill checks, you must be cheating".. So now I'm a little confused? Are the skill checks meant to be impossible to hit? I do on occasion miss one, but I'd say I hit…

Anti-tunneling incentives
While I know they already said they're holding off on alot of the PTB stuff, there was 1 part of it I think warrants discussion and could possibly be room for really nice changes going forward. BHVR for seemingly the first time ever have noticed that some killers are stronger than others and shouldn't get the same blanket…

How many people have actually played a party game?
How many people have actually played a party game? I see people saying that DBD is supposed to be a party game, and I'm wondering how many people have actually played a party game in a real life party? Party games are supposed to have really simple rules, so that people can quickly learn the games even if they're drunk.…

A Question On Anti-Tunnel Rewards
How would we feel about ramping up rewards for continuing to hook unique Survivors? For example if you hook 4 Survivors, with nobody being hooked twice in a row, you get an extra bonus. Say, arbitrarily, that if you hook 6 Survivors and none of them are hooked twice in a row, you get like 20% Haste until a damage state and…

Tension, Strategy, & Depth In Dead By Daylight
While this is somewhat related to the PTB, it's a broader conversation so I'm putting it in general discussions instead. There's a comment that I see repeated about the notion of anti-[X] additions, whether it's about tunnelling or slugging or in some cases camping, where people object to the idea of removing… one of the…

Buffs on Myers Rework (If it stays as it is on the PTB)
1. Buffs in Evil Within (Tier 3) Currently, in Pursuer mode Myers receives: +10% lunge distance +15% vault speed through windows +10% endurance +10% Brutal Strength effect However, when Evil Within (Tier 3) is activated, these bonuses should feel much stronger and more distinct from Pursuer mode. Suggested values: Lunge:…

New Killer Krasue
First off the Anti slug and anti tunnel update completely overshadowed this Chapter. Secondly since how this killer is designed and will basically function like a Diet Twins you detach your head leaving behind your body and when you hit a survivor you injure and inflict deppwounds and then are recalled to your body. PTB…

How to counter X
Hello everyone, since we have to wait for the Anti Tunnel, Anti Slug and maybe an Anti Camp here are some good advices how to counter these playstyles.

I'm starting to get tired of reporting cheaters only for nothing to happen.
This is a bit of a rant discussion, but would love to see what other stories people have to share, I have reported around 5+ cheaters since the start of the year, have filled a ticket on them, given all the sluggish details they ask of me plus video proof, yet here I am, going against the SAME cheater I reported like 4+…

Are Ruin, Oppression, and Deerstalker changes also cancelled?
As we know, devs announced that some perk changes are cancelled along with the delay of anti-slugging and anti-tunneling updates. Does anybody know if Ruin, Oppression, and Deerstalker are included in that "cancelled" list?

Who was supposed to enter 2v8
Devs decided not to add any New Killers in 2v8 however that wasn't always the case it's been discovered in the Code that Chucky and Clown were supposed to enter this 2v8 iteration before devs decided not too.

2v8 ends today now stop extending events
Its pointless to extend events constantly this has been going on for a while. Seeing a lot of survivors wanting it permanently but it already messes with the queues, not to mention people only play 2v8 for the bloodpoints. I just personally don’t get enjoyment playing survivor in 2v8 after a few matches.

dbd has become a joke but not for the reason you think
basiclly dbd is a joke, survivor gameplay is sitting on a gen and pressing button now and then. the "fun" element is chase which includes going in a circle around the pallet or jungle gym. killer gameplay is speed dash or pretty much chase in a loop to force a pallet drop. they even changed myers to semi dash killer. the…

Can BHVR finally do something about cheaters?
######### balance discussions for a second, can something finally be done about the anti-cheat which clearly doesn't work? Having to go against multiple cheaters every single day (EU-W) is getting to the point where I'm considering just quitting altogether. I can't even begin to give you a count of the amount of cheaters I've…

Survivors should really stop playing this game for the time being
Well there goes my reason to maybe come back to this game for now, as the anti-tunneling and anti-slugging changes are being delayed for who knows how long, alongside the buffs to none tunneling strategies that I was very much looking forward to. I do get that these fundamental changes probably would have needed some…

The strange world of 2v8
Hello everyone as always I have a short question. I played a lot of 2v8 in the last time and my mind was blown apart. People going down left to right in less than 10 seconds. You could say ofcourse the Killer went Tag Teaming on them but that wasn´t the case. I am kinda confused how it is possible that people falling like…

It's not "Killers VS Survivors" its "Competitive VS Casuals"
TLDR at bottom; This has been on my mind since the announcement. BHVR has now accepted that winning takes priority over fun. Tunneling and Slugging and inherently unfun strategies to face, and frankly they are incredibly unfun to play. But they are also some of the easiest wins you can get. Removing these in any way…

So… I want to learn how to play Artist.
a while ago, I made a tier list on killers I find the most fun to play as and Artist was second to last on that list. I think she is the second most boring killer in the game, she is one spot above my most boring killer personally the Spirit. So I want to go through a bit of character development as it were. I want to…

Opinion: The problem of Solo Q survivors are the Solo Q survivors.
A lot of people complain that playing solo is horrible because survivors don't do generators, they only search chests, they only cleanse totems, they just hide, they don't unhook, etc. But have you ever stopped to think that none of these complaints are about the killer? About their perks or their powers? This means that…

The Divide In Killer/Survivor Stance Is Shockingly A 50/50 Split As Of This Update
Theres alot to unpack here, but we should all want the best of both roles. Heres my diagnosis and recommendations. Hopefully no matter your stance, you agree. I'm not gonna bore anyone with personal life and #########, but I am a very unbiased player when it comes to whats best for the game's balance. I'm actually studying Game…

Annoying interaction
There's annying interaction in dbd that probably should be removed due to huge survivor buff next patch. You see, survivors can finish sometimes gen in front of your face and others can help with it by bodyblocking them. There should be possibility to kick a genwhile survivor is worknig on it in order to prevent that toxic…

Give us the option to disable autoaim/aim dressing
It's the year 2025 and we STILL do not have the option to disable this awful mechanic, idk how annoying it is on console since i've never played with a controller but I would assume its just as rage inducing when it makes you miss a hit. How in tarnation do we not have the option to disable this already? Like seriously…

Penalize Survivors who don't leave right away.
After a certain amount of time of not leaving the game when the exit gates are open survivors I feel need to be penalized. I hate having to escort them out so they can disrespectfully tbag in front of me after running Lithe, Sprint Burst, Windows of Opportunity and whatever crutch survivors need to get a free win. Its so…
