The Trickster is getting more than just a power change...map, volume and more?
I'm a huge fan of the trickster and according to DBD stats I have like 800 hours with just him XD but I'm worried about his changes and him losing his identity. Although that is a concern of mine, I'd like to talk about a related topic and that is that according to BHVR his changes are probably in March and a while ago at…

Next patch please Revert
With a week away from next patch can somebody on the team confirm if Clown and Knight Changes have been reverted these changes cannot go live. Pig changes were great though.

What A Way To End Off The Twisted Masquerade
Dumped 10 Prestige Levels worth of Bloodpoints in to Nea and guess how many Coconut Scream Pie I ended up with? The rates for this year were horrible, I have no idea why they were decreased. Youd think for the last time the Twisted Masquerade would ever be here, that they would do some sort of massive send-off or something…

In your opinion is ghoul boring to face
Now everyone has those killers they don't like. Either it be Nurse, Wraith, Twins(if those people do exist) and so on but in my opinion ghoul can be boring not because simply...not much in the terms of counter play KEEP THOSE PITCHFORKS DOWN Listen closest I can put this to is Nurse but Nurse kinda has a better reason for…
-
so this is the vision with the ghoul
not bodyblocking playstyle, not "killer you have to loop because you cant run from them", it actually is "the killer you just die against because power autopilots every aspect of the game". yeah, i give up, nuke him

Is it possible to unreport someone?
I just had a survivor match with a Springtrap on Greenville and we had this Dwight who was using invisibility hacks (he also had an inappropriate name). At the end of the match I wanted to report the Dwight, but it has been a while since I reported someone and I was trying to remember how to report, and when I did…

Hardly any pallets on some maps sometimes..

Asking for clarification in terms of yesterday's revelation about Ghoul
I'm here to forward someone else's (@Lukadoosh) Twitter post on here: "Hi @/deadbydaylight, on the recent Reddit Q&A you mentioned that The Ghoul "stopping you in place" while vaulting is not a bug. I want to ask properly here in case this was a miscommunication. For each of these scenarios, is the behavior shown intended?…

Anyone have some fun Legion builds?
Usually I just toss some common or uncommon addons on Legion and try to make it work, but last night decided to change things up since the event was giving me plenty of BPs to buy tons of any addon. Changed up my perks as well and felt like an absolute power house...on Legion. Anyone else have a neat setup you'd recommend?…

A little thing that irks me
Why does Springtrap and Huntress have different ways to put away their power? If I want to put away a hatchet as the Huntress I have to press M1 but as Springtrap I just let go of the button. Shouldn't they be the same button? I like playing both killers but it is pretty frustrating that I have to remember a dumb detail…

Some things you hope never change
Despite the plethora of changes and direction the game has taken, what (even tiny things) are still here and would never like to see altered or removed? For me it would have to be the sweet perfect pitch DING with the gen aura everytime one pops. Its a trademark classic that practically defines the gameplay. Interested in…

Working with killer
when are the devs actually going to do something about this. I have honestly had a bad day as playing survivor and the last game just made never want to play. I play almost every day and now I think I am actually done. The last game was good until the killer just started to slug then allow other survivors to heal. They…

Hmm numbers aren't adding up
Twice now this has happened where a quest won't complete. 48 quests must be completed yet if you look 62/64 if we remove the reward quests...60 quests I'm missing one and it's been stuck at 47/48 fun fact...the quest system has bugged twice like this and as far as I know the archives...never did.

Gens getting done faster?
It seems that ever since this most recent patch gens just get done way faster than before. I'm not sure if it's because all the survivors spawn at one side of the map clustered together or what but it seems like if i chase a survivor for more than fifteen seconds three gens pop at once. Not sure what else to do as Killer…

Does BHVR have any news or plans to change some maps?
I genuinely want to know if there are any changes regarding this because there are maps in the game that are absurdly ridiculous. Haddonfield and Forgotten Ruins are perfect examples of terrible maps for survivors, while Badham Preschool and Disturbed Ward are for killers. I believe Nostromo is terrible for both sides and…

has the "survivors spawn together" feature already been retired?
nope, no offerings to change spawn locations. i have lethal persuer. survivors spawn on different maps, they are that far apart. i had a match yesterday on rpd where i spawned outside the main hall (by the exitgate) and 2 of them spawned in west wing, 2 in east wing. and the 2 in west wing were on different floors. and…

Can we please get new chase/menu music themes for original killers already?
It's literally been years. Why do Wraith, Plague and Huntress still miss menu/chase music after all these years? They even went though the trouble of making new menu themes for random SKINS, while whole (and very old) characters still don't have anything. I know this isn't a huge priority, but it's been years. Let the…

I think Rage Quiting is becoming a serious issue
I want to say this is from my prospective as a Killer Main so be warned on that I think the number of rage Quiting has became such a problem not only for Killers getting inaccurate results and this can lead survivors without teammates and just flat out ruining the game for other people. I understand the game has some…

So what's next for Springtrap?
Definitely one of my favorite killers so far, and the skins are 10/10, but after having 4 add-ons adjusted and no other changes so far, what exactly is next? He recieved no update in the mid-chapter and after how Ghoul was handled, we knew it was going to take awhile before he received any sort of update. If I had to…

Please Expedite Shared Inventories
Thank you for considering this. It's been highly requested ever since its introduction in DbD mobile. For years many players have ignored new releases because of being faced with a choice of faster progression (aka stacked offerings, consumables, etc.) or a shiny blank slate character. Please, this is personally my most…

Vic Viper Charm for PS5
So yesterday I tried to type Konami Command on my PS5 to receive this charm, made sure that PH was the killer I selected, but one of the buttons I was supposed click kept opening the rift book. Is there any method to solve this problem?

Are there more addon pass updates planned for other killers like you did one for the executioner?

Do survivors and killers get rewarded by the entity after matches lore wise?
Are bloodpoints(the reward for us players) just for gameplay, or is there a lore reason too for them? Like does the entity just gives like 40k liters of blood to a survivor after a match lol?

I made an automatic hook tracker for killers. Is it allowed under the EULA?
Disclaimer: Posting it here because I'm not sure where to post it otherwise. Let me know if I should change the sub-forum. Hello! I recently made an app to help DBD killers track the hook stages and possible DS timers. It works by visually monitoring survivors' statuses on the screen and then displaying them as an overlay.…

Would You Use a 'Perk Loadout Randomizer' Button in Public Matches?
Just a fun idea I had — what if there was an optional button in the loadout screen that gave you a fully randomized perk set before a public match? Could be a fun way to break out of meta tunnel vision and encourage more creative gameplay. Maybe even have it as part of a “Daily Challenge” system for bonus Bloodpoints.…

does Forced Hesitation have a future in dbd?
long story short, I've been getting tired of pre ran and after some disastrous stealth Kaneki I decided to say frig it, I'm going louder and prouder with Ghoul; let's troll with Distressing. the build i settled on was "distressing, phantom fear, infectious fright, forced hesitation". the idea i just play for hooks as…

Cake vs Zombies
I'm torn on what to do. I haven't been able to play much during the anniversary so I'm lacking in cakes. For the last two days I've been free to play and been grinding BP.

your opinion about current killer state
I'm new here on the forum, but I've been playing the game for a while now. I'd just like to discuss how most people play killer. Not in the sense of endless complaints (which I might), but more of a question - what are your impressions of the last few months of the game? My killrate has dropped significantly, after 600…

Tunneling and Slugging Aren’t Toxic and Should Be Encouraged
[This mainly goes to players who played hundreds of hours] The same goes for survivors, they can also bring extreme stuff like 4 syringes, 4 of that perk etc. Why? Because you have to assume either side is going to try their best and do these things. I mainly play killer but that is irrelevant to the fact that same thing…

Why does BHVR think killers need so much help and survivors need to be constantly punished?
As a player of both roles I can talk about many things, but in particular I wonder why are some meta killer builds so horrible for survivors? Have the developers even tried playing constantly against those builds? Also, what is the need for some survivor perks to be disabled during game collapse? Do killers so desperately…

Question to the Devs. Why does the dark fog work on Greenville but not on other maps ?
hi, as the title says. On Greenville, the dark fog just looks great and creepy. It also adds to the atmosphere of the game, and I think that's extremely important. Look at other maps like Haddonfield, Coldwind and others. It doesn't work there. Not even with offerings like "Murky Reagent". Only the offer “Clear Reagent”…

Nerfing killers that need buffs?

Which killers do U feel miserable playing as?
I have 1050 hours in game, and i can confidently say that i can play like 70/60% of killers pretty well, but my god, when it comes to xeno i'd rather play perkless trapper for a hundred games than play xeno for 1, i just feel so misreable playing her. I used to play her quite a bit when i had like 200-500 hours but ever…

Dying on hook. the last 2 survivors!
Am I the only one who feels this is a mistake!? Even though you can try to unhook yourself when there are only 2 survivors, the struggle time takes too long for you to die. There is almost no hope for the last survivor to try to escape if he is being chased by the killer while the other survivor dies. One of the coolest…

Clown Changes (9.1.0)
Unfortunately I'm not onboard with them, I don't really like the idea of placing greater emphasis on The Clown's invigoration bottles because I personally don't really like using them. I play Clown to be an area denial killer, I really like the gameplay of placing negative zones that discourage and impair survivor's…

Are we playing the same game?? Springtrap is NOT balanced.
I'm sorry, but all the people saying that Springtrap is bad or mid are completely wrong. He has cross map teleportation, a projectile, 2 instant-grabs in his kit, his axe detects survivors, and he can camp hooks better than the majority of survivors in this game. He is undetectable coming out of doors, the cameras are…

Can we bring back map offerings?!
As a survivor main who occasionally heads to killer when matches get too toxic and I'm being tunneled out for my Ace leopard shorts, I tend to enjoy a little scratch mirror Myers. Last night I brought indoor map offerings (risky in lieu of scream pie I know), and couldn't get an indoor map to save my life. The offerings…
