Go Big or Go Home - BHVR Chooses Go Home
Like a lot of people I'm not surprised things are getting delayed, but, like a lot of what has happened this summer, this feels like such an unforced error on BHVR's part that leaves everyone angry. Of course the patch was going to be met with massive backlash, so will withdrawing it. Any large scale change will get that…

Did Anti-Slugging also needed to be postponed?
I think Anti-Slugging was much less problematic or exploitable compared to Anti-tunneling update. And even if it needed extra polishing, I think it would be possible to change it before PTB goes live, as it was mostly fine imo.

Killers Crying about changes once AGAIN!
it honestly never fails, its always a killers word over survivors - we have been begging for changes like Tunneling and Slugging to come to the game for YEARS and i already know they are going to change it again just to make it useless. The only thing they need to change as far as the Tunneling feature goes is this…
-
BHVR needs to lock in.
Stop making Survivors feel bad to play. Stop making Killers lose all their strategies. Revert Clown, revert Fog Vials, don't push the anti-tunnel changes to live, and play your ######### game, BHVR! We don't want Walking Dead era BHVR anymore, give us something to be happy about. Thanks!
-
Surprise surprise.....not
So i can't tell if everyone has decided to try and force behaviors hand by rage tunneling and slugging but this has been the single worst night for it so far.

Ex-Dev says 9.2.0 will destroy Killers
Former Dbd Dev Almo chimes in on the 9.2.0 Changes and how it will seriously gut killers If even former Devs and known Content Creators who been with DBD since the beginning are gonna quit if these anti tunnel changes go live. These changes cannot go live.

We don't want your Changes PERIOD
For the release of Sinister Grace, we will hold back those features (and their associated perk changes) to iterate on some adjustments based on your feedback. We will test these features again in an upcoming PTB and will release them live when we believe they are ready. And there you have it Devs are going to make slight…

This game is becoming so survivor sided
So what happens if you hook survivor A You then cannot find survivors B, C and D but survivor A makes a mistake and you hook them again, this is only two hooks and you may have the intention of not tunnelling them out of the game. they get mad and let themselves die on hook, you now can’t kick gens and the remaining…
-
Thanks devs, but…
Delaying/reworking the “anti-tunnel” and anti-slug changes is the right choice. However, I’ve said it here a couple times and I’ll say it again: with how quickly so many people saw the flaws in these ideas, even before the announcement of the numbers, it’s disheartening that the devs were even considering these changes.…

New Anti-Pig tech found
My friends and I were playing the PTB, just checking things out y'know, and I decided that since one of my favorite pig builds had been changed due to the alterations to many perks, I'd play pig against them. Being the merciless and conniving bunch of rapscallions they are, they got 2 gens done by the time I got my first…

So what should you do as trapper if a survivor gets unhooked from 2nd and runs right into your trap?
Saw this happen a few times and come up in conversation. Same for pinhead if they immedately grab the box and start to solve it after being unhooked. Or springtrap if they go into a door. Stuff they know that would get them killed, but If the killer acts on it. They are the ones being the bad for acting on...the thing the…

Theory about slugging/tunneling changes
The updated QOL road map has the updates to slugging/tunneling (as well as camping) coming up in October-January. However, they're being tested in the upcoming PTB, which also has the folklore killer that the roadmap promises for September. I think this likely means that the current iteration of anti-Tunnel and anti-Slug…

Why do you think there is a Public Test Build?
So, I wanted to take the time to remind everyone that this latest patch was on the Public Test Build. While it was always possible it would go through to live unchanged, that wasn't a given. It has not been completely canceled, they are going to look at it again, make some changes, and likely do another PTB in the future.…

I think Dead by Daylight being boring is the problem
Holding M1 on generators is boring. Crouch-walking to the next generator is boring. All of this stuff is boring, except interacting with the killer. But when the killer is too good or their powers are too OP, you get to sit on a hook or on the floor where you get to do nothing. I really, honestly believe that the biggest…

They're turning 1v4 into 2v8
I suspect 2v8 is so popular that the goal is to make 1v4 replicate that experience. They've just increased the pallet density on pretty much every map. They nerfed strategic play styles. They gave both sides enough base kit to constitute a "class" in 2v8. The more frustrating, higher skill curve stuff is just not going to…
-
pallet density is getting ridicuous and is being buffed further
against killers without anti pallet or mobility, it is reaching the point on many maps where if survivors simply w key pallet>pallet and predrop them all they will not run out before 5 gens are done this is not interesting for either side and just pushes people to play high tier killers, i dont get how this is okay

Shoulder the burden on PTB
I dont have access to PTB, so was really hoping someone who DOES could test this. Would it proc the anti-tunnel penalties if someone using shoulder the burden dies, even if they've never been hooked before? I know LEAVING ppl on hook isn't suppose to trigger this, but does the new system see me as a dirty tunneler for…

August 2025 Update
It’s honestly incredible—finally a buff for the poor survivors. In the next patch, I’m sure the killers will be the ones repairing generators, and the survivors will have to kill them .-. I wonder what goes through the developers’ heads when they decide to add a buff like this, considering that a killer already has to…

why is bhvr obsessed with only the first chase mattering?
i don't get all these constant changes to make the game snowball immensely hard in eiher direction from the outcome of the first chase with these new changes, having a really bad first chase will just be truly unrecoverable for the killer, whilst a strong earlygame gives them extra momentum from chaining unique hooks i…

Behaviour need to STOP killers slugging when only 2 players left.
I don't think Behaviour understand their own game. I'm not stupid, I KNOW there is a massive difference between, 5k SWF games and my low hour solo-Q games. In my games killers win 90%-90% of the time, because they have EVERY advantage - there's about 40 killers in the game, EVERY one has totally different mechanics to…

Next 2v8 that needs to have
Obviously Legion ruined this current 2v8 and needs further major nerfs and for the people shouting just remove him y'know they're not going to so he needs to be balanced accordingly. Next it's been shown in the code that next 2v8 will have Silent hill and Castlevania Event so PyramidHead and Dracula will arrive to 2v8.…

Is anyone else looking forward to all the incentives to chase different survivors?
I'm not talking about the downsides here to be clear: I'm really looking forward to all the base perks and incentives to chase different survivors, I mainly run chase and information builds and I'm really excited for how this all plays. The Unknown change is cool too, excited to have more ways to catch survivors off guard…

My fear with the coming Meta shift
Hello everyone, It is kinda impossible to see all the posts about the anti Slug and Anti Tunnel coming to DbD soon.

Yes the Survivors can repair the…

Updating Onryo after the upcoming patch in the near future
So I want to get straight to the point that Sadako would need an update after this chapter drops in the near future. Whether the changes that are coming from this PTB go through fully or some adjustments are made- even in the current state of the game- Sadako is one of those killers in low/casual level she is fine and can…

Long killerwait times every time bhvr starts a new modifier or ptb
That's cruel. I mainly play as a survivor, but if i want to play as a killer, the wait times for games have become unbearable. Do you agree or not agree ? It's especially bad when new modifiers are added to the game. Even if you get a killer game, it's not worth it because of the low blood points. Take a look at 2vs8.…

If the changes are good for the average survivors what about the average killers
Now before you say that the average killer don't tunnel or dlug or YOU have no problem with that, i will like to remind you that the average killer will get punished from this change want it or not . The way they are made is to force you into this game play even you don't really used them. And survivors with any…

Will we be getting some match stats from the PTB
With everything being said on how bad or not so bad the PTB is, and how it's going to be devastating for the killer role and so on, will BHVR be releasing any stats on what the kill rates were? Despite the doomsaying, there's also been plenty of videos that seem to show the opposite. I don't know which side is ultimately…

Taking a very Long Break
Honestly I just need a massive break. The Game wasn't as good when I first started playing which was when Venga came out. And im a P33 Unknown Killer main RN.

Remove or rework entity blocker from bloodweb, it's already outdated
Remove it and make fewer items/addons less as a trade, so you won't even need to QOL on bulk spreading to have the ability to choose items/addons.

Lets talk about the on-going baseline additions in dbd (possible mini corrupt)
Since we are now seeing these changes happening i think its fair to assume and possibly have door open to request a "mini- baseline corrupt" That would last for 90s to match the values of current upcoming changes. That would deactivate on first hit (not a down) That would also allow players to repair but not get any repair…

The Removal of Killer Player Macro Agency, The Real Issue - 4k Hour player's take
I'll preface this by saying I'm probably one of the few people that is going to benefit massively from the PTB changes on both sides as I rarely run gen regression on killer and BBQ is in my build for most killers so for my killer side experience I'm basically going to be getting to run 6 perks every match and that should…
-
Question about new gen slowdown
So, you now get 20 % gen slowdown for each unique hook. But is it current or total slowdown? This makes quite a difference actually. And regarding BBQ, does the extra 5 % on kicks add on top, making it 10 %, or is it just 5 × 1.05, making it 5.25 % slowdown?

After looking at what the update in the ptb looks like, I would just like to take a moment to share my take and criticisms.

New Anti Slug and Abandon
Hello everyone… If the new Anti Slug comes into the game should the abandon option still be a thing?

Why design an environment where survivors feel safe around the killer?
Alright, look, I get it. You play a video game to interact and have fun. You don't like it when you get slugged or hooked too fast and you can't play that video game. I have to question why you're playing a video game where the penalty for being caught is getting murdered by a horrifying monster or insane psychopath, but…

So... They nerfed Gen Regression, but no change on Gen Speed??

A Killer based on the Yeti
The more killers based on myth and legend the better imo, if we could get a killer based on the Yeti who apparently lives in the himalayan moutains it would be sick to have a map thats on a mountain. It would be like the Far Cry 4 dlc if anyone played that.
