DBD on PS5 and PS5 Pro has input delay, can we fix it?
Hi, Even my steam deck has better input speed, no it's not my TV as I used an OLED lmao. I've tested on several monitors and its much harder to hit great skill checks on PS5, even with a wired controller and i think it's something to do with the games optimisation? it seems a little less impactful when I look at the…

I'm happy 2v8 got extended
If 2v8 were a permanent mode, I would never play 1v4 again. I enjoy everything about 2v8, from the challenge of evading two separate killers to the chaos of so many survivors running around and tons of stuff going on all at once. 1v4 just feels so tiny and mundane by comparison. To me, it's the closest mode that feels like…

whatever happened to the new servers from a few months back?
i swear i remember hearing that new DbD servers were active a few months back. one of the new servers was in Ohio, USA which is much closer to my state than the Virginia server. when it was active, i seen a pretty big decrease in my ping going from 65-70 on average to 40-50 on average. then all of a sudden it seems the…

Can I have some opinions from you on these questions?
Hello everyone, Could you honestly answer these questions? There is no correct answer to these but I am curious about your opinions. How long should a chase be to be seen as good? (1 Gen? 5 Gens? 1 Stun?) How many hooks happen before the first Survivor dies in a game? (3? 8?) How long should a new thing (Killer/Perk/Item)…

Killer Feedback Q&A on Why Killers Uninstall the game
Please give ur Killer feedback on why would you uninstall the game and fill free to give experiences and Opinions. This is a Judge free Zone and will be reported if a fight on Opinions begin. Please be respectful

Every basic/special attack (any Killer) should block the exit gate just like Wesker and Victor do.
This would allow less nonsense/time wasting in the Exit Gates. If a Survivor takes damage by anything in the Exit Gate it gets blocked for 2-3 seconds. No more pointing for Killers to hit you out as each hit would block it just enough to pick up the Survivor. Successive hits reset the blocked effect. It would only be…

I'm done with DBD for now.
It's not exactly a new and revolutionary statement when I say that DBD is not in a amazing state atm. I've been feeling a increasing sense of apathy towards the game since the Walking Dead chapter, that patch was easily the worst launch of a chapter since Binding of Kin and it unfortunately led to a increasing list of…

This is the issue with the game
I know I’m definitely not the first person to say this, and I won’t be the last, but this is one of the biggest issues in the game right now and it really kills the fun. I’ve been playing since 2021 and have over 2.5k hours. Dracula isn’t a killer I play much, only 1.4 hours—but I still know what I’m doing as a killer. I…

What is the power difference between Ghostface and Blight?
So for example, why is Ghostface considered a weak killer compared to Blight who is considered a strong killer? This might be a stupid question but it could lead to an interesting discussion which gives people a greater understanding to the killer power disparity.

Embracing the True Death of Horror in DBD 9.3.0 (Long post)
So, 9.3.0 is coming, and I've been reasonably vocal about my disdain for the changes. Who am I? Before we begin I want to clarify, this is completely from my perspective, and while I stand by my conclusion and don't use "it's my opinion" as a shield, I'm talking about a very subjective subject matter, so while I always try…

I'm back after a long break and... My god.
So, I'm a killer main, about 60/40 (now It's more like 50/50 since queues are way too long for playing only killer). I've took a long break off the game, then I decided to play again lately (just 2v8 so I can be a chill guy). Yesterday I've decided to play 1v4 again. First map - One of the borgos - Got 2 kills, not bad, I…

Cross Progression Question

I think Dead by Ghoul is the goal of the development.
I've seen a lot of discussion regarding the direction of the game, mostly negative So why the changes? I saw an idea being discussed and I agree with this idea. The current goal of development is to create Dead by Ghoul. the fact is balancing for 40 killers is a massive undertaking and usually fails hard. How do you have…

New Xenomorph Concept
I've been wanting to do this for awhile and have came up with a faithful concept to the Xenomorph that partly keeps its current design alive.

What nicknames do you call your killers?
Greetings DbD players, it's time for a new question! If I see a Hag in my game, I'd be like "It's Haggy". What about you? Do you have nicknames for your killers? Feel free to share.

Pyramid Head's Cages are Laughably Useless Now.
Pyramid head main here. I don't think cages are worth using anymore. They're basically glorified remote hooks from the anniversary event. I think they've been over-nerfed and I'll explain why. First off, no more loud noise notification when a survivor is saved from one. With experience this really isn't an issue. I know…

How are you doing in 2v8 with the new stats tracker?
I thought I'd share how i'm doing on killer since I'm seeing a lot of complaining about how bad it is for killers and how survivor sided it is lol: I mainly have played Dracula this iteration though but his hours dont match my huntress rn: he seems pretty broken so far in the mode lol How are you all doing?

Xenomorph chase theme
So, I'm one of the few players who wants to bring back the PTB version of the Xenomorph chase music. Many might object and say that the PTB version is incredibly annoying and has too much looping, which is partly true. But... The new chase music can also get boring with its simplicity, especially on a character like the…

Will the survivors get nerfed with gens?
When playing killer I struggle a lot because of the amount of pallets and how strong their perks are and the gens speed to much it's not a single chase without a gen done. I am a good player but it's impossible to win without doing a 3 gen and I am forced to tunnel and slug to get people of the gens. The solution for this…

How to win easy games as Survivor in 2025 with many Second chances NEW META
Hi, Use Dead Hard in combination with a Medkit and AHS + SA or another combination with SA such as Refi Serum in a chase, and you'll be super safe. Also use Windows Of Opp. and run from pallet to pallet.That's how I do it, and it works very well. Also use DS und Unbreakable :) This will be Horror for Killers 😁 Especially…

SBMM will never be effective in this game as long as match format is asymmetrical
The fact that you and your opponent are playing two different games means there is no way to directly measure your skill against your opponents in a fair manner. The only way SBMM will ever become effective is if the match format of dead by daylight were to change such that it were teams of 5 where each team had 1 killer…

Mushrooms
The krasue's infection should not be completely reset when hooked. It should be set on a cleansing timer. Meaning when the survivor is unhooked, it's as if they ate a mushroom and the timer started. The krasue should be allowed to hit this survivor to get the infection back up in one hit. Some may say that this is a…

My biggest problem with DbD
Hello everyone, today I want to talk about my biggest problem with Dead by Daylight and this is the change of killers. Many of you know i am more a full survivor main but this wasn´t always the case. I loved to play many Killers. My favorites were: Trapper Clown Myers Chucky Skull Merchant Why do I love them? And what made…

Could Skull Merchant have stayed the same with these changes?
Hello everyone… as we all know the old Skull Merchant got kinda butcherd out of the game because she was able to hold even strong teams hostage with a good 3 gen. She got nerfed and changed again and again till she fell into oblivion. So I was thinking after the 3gen nerf (which happend cause of her) and the ability to sit…

2v8 needs to be reworked in several Points.
First of all, before any of you argue against me: I am a survivor main. I basically only play killer because my best friend refuses to play survivor while 2v8 is online. But I noticed something urgent in both killer and survivor rounds. Most of the time, survivors only pick Escapist or Scout, because these categories are…

Play Guide = Get Griefed
The point of the Guide class in 2v8 is to see the most important generators that need done and reveal their aura while working on them. This let's teammates help complete these gens or avoid them in chase. Or in theory that is how it works. In reality people see the gen as a means to get the killer to chase somebody else…

Quality of Life as Option for Graphic Engine
I recently got back to playing DBD after some time and I read they have changed the graphical engine. I felt this in gameplay because I started getting unstable FPS that I didn't have before... in some maps/places I have to do generators looking at the ground! Something that kinda sucks. So I changed my settings to…

The State of the Killer Role in DBD
This is just the opinion of one dedicated DBD player. While killer can be tough and survivors can be intense to deal with what with their second chance perks, gen rushing and toxicity. I personally feel like when it comes to this game, a LARGE majority of killer players (non casuals) don't really spend the time to pick a…

So when will these updates be shared?
We were promised a week ago that we would get updates soon. Now there is only a week left until the PTB goes to live. Did they mean the patch notes or is anything else going to be shared before that?

Remove people from lobby if they didn’t ready up, especially for 2vs8 event.
I tried to give 2vs8 another chance, because wanted to achieve 60% rate on my killer. However sometimes I feel it’s impossible, because some people just fall asleep and I’m alone in the trial. It’s already… pretty exhausting trying to carry other killer when u are playing on those who are weak. If people didn’t approve…

Extra Prestige Reward
I think it'd be really fun to also unlock a profile badge of the character you prestige'd, say at the same time you've completed their bloodied outfits.

beHaviour hates money
As you all know, beHaviour has released many well known games such as Deathgarden and others As behaviour has continued to invest in new titles, it peeked my curiosity on why they didn't cancel some of these projects to invest in DBD, to rewrite it in C++ with a modular system that they can easily expand on without the…

Easy tunnel fix
just make the unhooked survivor transparent, meaning the killer can’t hit them easy fix, the unhooked survivor can’t drop pallets, body block, heal other players, you get self care when unhooked so you can only heal yourself and do gens, the survivor becomes parent again when the killer hooks another survivor or all gens…

My proposed perfect change for the Anti-Hemorrhagic Syringe
Syringes too powerful? Used in chase a lot? Here's how I'd nerf them to the perfect state: Syringes should have an animation of activating that lasts 2 or 3 seconds (this prevents vaulting windows or dropping a pallet and immediately activating the auto-heal without losing any distance. Healing mid chase SHOULD be a risk)…

Survivor Freebies
Hello! With all the doom and gloom about DBD dying and talk of unbalanced this and that, I have found a new way to play the game that is actually quite enjoyable as a killer player. It may even revive the player base! It does stem away from the horror genre and the entire purpose of the game, but it is another way to have…

What do you guys think of the current version of Krasue?
I faced a lot of Krasues from release but after the nerfs, I barely see her at all. I played against 1 Krasue 5 days ago in soloq and we did pretty good with 4 of us escaping. I think she's easy to face especially if you know what you're doing. When you bodyblock for a infected survivor, Krasue is pretty much done for.

Why does it take so long to find a killer match?
At least here in South America, it takes a really long time to find a killer match, no matter the mode or the time of day. Every single day, it's several long minutes of waiting. A few years ago it was the opposite, you’d wait forever just to play survivor. On top of that, there’s never any Bloodpoint bonus for killer,…

Developers and gamers should take a good look at these two videos from Otz and Hens

Pinhead's chains reveal that Ghoul could have been a better, more fair killer
We all know it. Objects break pinhead's chains. The logic is already in the game. Thus they could make Ghoul's power work the same way and this I don't understand. Instead we get survivors frequently being injured from behind walls, it's frustrating and genuinely feels unfair to play against. (And that's on top of how…

Dead By Daylight is a forgotten Legend
Well when this game first released it was a horror game and probably one of the best multiple horror games around. Now its losing what made it popular and I want to explain how. The Game was popular because of the Killers in the game of being able to play as and Against. The game grew popular because of elements it grew…
