10th Anniversary bets?
After the Stranger Things return and All Kill Comeback have turned out as solid successes to round out a struggling yet massive year for the a game, the next chapter up is set to continue the trend by being the big 10th Anniversary blitz. When I was 10 and originally caught wind of the DBD alpha on YouTube, I thought to…

Have the devs revealed if the 10th Anniversary cosmetics will be animated?
People on Twitter (X) are claiming it was confirmed, but I can't find it anywhere, so asking here. I hope and expect that they will be, but confirmation would be nice. Thanks.

Important Abandon Killer MMR Discussion
if a killer loses the match when he abandon the game he will simply bully survivors of lower skill level all the time without consequences which makes no sense to me, now let me explain, btw im not talking about killers that lost their match and decided to abandon, im talking about killers who clearly won the game yet…

Played killer 1st time in ages... killer was sooo bugged I'm back on Arc Raiders
After months and months of DBD balance team consisting now of players who occassionally play survivor I thought I'd try DBD as killer. Huge mistake

nearing 4k hours and just finally faced my 3rd Krasue
I swore I've only seen her twice, but I really wasn't tripping as I got met by a Krasue loading tip jumpscare tonight. I spent the match kinda starstruck like wow...I'm really facing this killer. sadly I never looped her, I was using my no Mither treacherous crows build so I never got chased. but it was nice listening to…

Plague Advice.
I would love some help. I don't do well with her at all but she is so fun and unique. Please help me. They just hold my power against me all match.

We need different playlists
I've mentioned this a few times in various threads, but felt like I should make an actual thread dedicated to it. It would really be beneficial to the game to give us two separate playlists: a ranked competitive playlist using the current tier system with additional rewards, and a separate casual playlist. Before people…

Is my Xenomorph build good?

I feel like we're in the best period for an AMA
With tomorrow having our second to last main update of the content year (that is, before the anniversary chapter) and knowing that this year we could be seeing some big things happening, I feel like the upcoming weeks are PERFECT to do anything AMA. Yeah, they don't always gives us the answers we hope for, but sometimes…

Honestly just feel like I'm either tired of this game or gaming in general.
Tired of sweaty and toxic players. Tired of getting irritated and frustrated with myself, the game and other players. Tired of feeling like I wasted an evening when I sign off unsatisfied. Tired of regretting even giving gaming a second chance sometimes. I'm honestly just drained and over it all. Hope you can all somehow…

Why do Abandons still count as Escapes in the official stats?
Seven minutes was all I could spare to play with them. And indeed, the snowball early on was so crazy that the entire recording of the match, lobby and tally screen included, did not even reach the 5 minute mark. Yet when looking at my official stats, it appears as if the Survivors have all escaped: And, correct me if I'm…

Is there any sort of ETA on a Midwich fix?
Midwich is one of my favourite maps to play on as survivor...when the pallets actually spawn. And them not spawning has been an issue for a while now, has this problem been acknowledged by the devs? Or are we just going to have to settle for 2 pallets per quarter of the map for the foreseeable future?

Dead by daylight nemesis.
For those who play nemesis, what kind of changes would you like to see happen to him? This can range from small number buffs to slight reworks to even a full rework. Kinda curious as to what other nemesis players wants to see happen to him.

Remove the Map boost
BHVR since a long time now, the most hated and poorly designed maps are boosted. Nobody gets why this is the case. If you do this for data collection, how long can it take. What kind of bad developer do you need to be to not get this.

Gen speed + killer nerfs
I know this keeps getting brought up and it's obviously for a good reason, I just ran a game, two people had only one gen speed perk each no toolboxes, the perk that gives 6% boost to gen repair, they finished a generator per minute, within 5 minutes all gens were done, keep in mind I'm running Oni, arguably the fastest…

An option to abandon matches earlier than the current one
One of the most frustrating aspects of this game is watching yourself losing for 10 minutes. Unlike other games, where the round or the match is just over in 2-3 minutes, losing in DBD can drag for a good amount of time. If the killer has already 6-8 hook stages or 2 kills and there is not more than 1 gen done, people…

No new cosmetics from Vee for the 5 months
Vee has gotten no fully new cosmetics since her release All she has in the past 5 months are two event shirts that are limited time, and two shirts of hellfire and iron maiden, and that was it She also didn't even get casting of frank stone murder mill shirts unlike Taurie and Orela who did end up getting the torso…

Deerstalker dead.
I came back to DBD after a long break and they needed my deerstalker. Why? This hurts my Oni load out and just makes slugging last long so I can't hook quickly. This is a really rough change does anyone know why and when they did this?
-
Will Featured Maps 🗺️ return?
Recently, DBD tested a "Featured Maps" server that guaranteed a specific map for 3 days on a separate server. The map would rotate to another featured map for 3 days. As someone who loved the old Map Offerings, I thought this was a great idea to satisfy both those who wanted to play on a specific map and those who hate Map…

Trickster Nerfwork
The upcoming rework for Trickster feels like 20% actual rework and 80% nerf. 36 blades and slower movement speed in THIS economy? all for looking and sounding cooler?

2 questions concerning Deerstalker
1: Does anyone have a concrete answer on how Deerstalker and Object of Obsession interact with one another? 2: On the wiki is says that Deerstalker only works on survivor aura reading with a set time limit, (No conditional aura reading. ex: Wiretap) but We See You has a set time, but EVERY survivor sees the killer's aura,…

After taking a break..
Just played my first two games. Majorly rusty and got hooked. Ended up going to second stage both games because survivors didn't unhook me in time. Surely after so long being on the hook, we should be able to try and unhook ourselves? What a stupid mechanism. Are they planning on adding a way to self-unhook after X amount…

Fair play
How is it that survivors get penalized for running around doing nothing, but the killer can get u down and just either stand there or follow u around til u bleed out... It's like holding the game hostage... Because other survivors can't save u without being hit, or worse...
-
Secret project is awesome
I love the design of this perk, the way it has synergy with two distinct play styles. 30 seconds of stealth if you have totem broken AND if you block a gen by any means. I've been using this build on demogorgon. Corrupt, alien instinct, dead man's switch and secret project. You get a lethal persuer-style starting…

Why does Sadako have such a high killrate?
When we get official killrates from BHVR Sadako has always had a decently high number with her usually around the mid 60's in terms of killrate. It is strange because this killer who is often considered a d or f tier killer has a higher official killer rate than Nurse who iirc had around a 44 the last time we got…

Stuck on easy anti cheat screen
I tried opening DBD today just to be met with only the EAC screen stuck on initializing and I've now tried just about everything to fix it but nothing seems to be working. Does anybody here know anything I could do? I haven't changed anything on my pc since I last played it last night.

I have a question about the mobile version.
I've been a fan of this game since its early days, but due to personal issues, I wasn't able to play on PC. I recently got back into playing when the mobile version launched. So I wanted to know if there's any chance of a mobile version being relaunched again. I think the mobile version is just as easy to play and as good…

"This Game Genuinely Makes Me Feel Miserable"
I see a lot of content creators creating videos specifically about burnout as a Killer for one reason or another Some of the issues raised in various videos: - maps - pallets - MMR What are your thoughts on this? Here are a few examples of such videos: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RkF4D4AXAw4…

Your daily reminder that Residual Manifest as well as other chest rummaging perks like Quentin's need built in aura reading for the closest chest to not be gamethrowing perks Enjoy the rest of your day ❤️

remove the prompt for teammates to open a locker if someone is already in it
nobody likes to play with a salty kid who rats out his teammates to the killer, just remove it

When are we going to get a update about the MMR rework?
The rework was delayed that i know, but ever since its delay BHVR has been pretty much radio silent about it and its making me nervous. I dont have much hope for it but at least tell us more about it.

Game overhaul thats needed.
Dbd is suffering heavily. Killers below the wanted threshold and Survivors in long queue times and both sides not having fun. We heavily need an overhaul and bhvr REALLY needs to stop looking at spreadsheets and look at the bigger picture. Without these changes the game is doomed to fail in the near future. So these are…

SBFL and new item description
With the release of the next update, changes to perk descriptions will be introduced, which is great! However, I ran into an issue with SBFL (Save the Best for Last, now called Keep Them Waiting) and the difficulty of understanding its current description. I was not able to play the PTB to check new description myself. So,…

Please start running DS
I'm tired of playing survivor games and having my team complain about getting tunneled. Just run DS ,its a free perk now, you have no excuse.

I dont understand matchmaking bp bonus
If the killer queue is 3 minutes, why does it have a 2.5x bp bonus? Shouldnt that mean they are lacking killers in queue, and therefore queue times should be short? yesterday, survivor had a 4x bonus with 2 minute queue times, but killer had a 5 second queue time with no bonus. Am I stupid? But shouldn't this be the other…

What goofy mistakes did you make when you were brand new to the game?
At this point, pretty much everyone here has a strong understanding of the game, but that wasn't always the case. We were all new once. I remember the first time I played this game in 2022 with my partner. SWF'd together and got into a match against Myers. He found me first and was just standing there. I thought he was…

Should Victor be in third person?
Now that more and more killers have some form of 3rd person in their kit it seems really weird that Victor is still in first person. Like it makes the Twins feel suuuuuuuuper dated. Has Behavior made any comments about this topic?

What status effect/ mechanic you would add to the game?
From time to time I post some mechanic and status effects ideas in hope that somehow it will impact Behaviour new perks in the future and also because I would love more interesting perks in the pool besides repetition of we already have in diffrent forms that is quite common. So thats why I wanted to ask. Do you have…

Reworking the Krasue
It has been quite some time since Krasue was added to the game, and like many new killers she went through the usual phase of community hate. A lot of players initially didn’t want to understand how her power works. However, after months of gameplay, people have figured out a very simple counterplay: just grab a mushroom…

A ridiculous idea on how to "fix" tunneling/gen rushing (hear me out)
In the current game, one gen is equivalent to about 2.5 hooks, lets round up to 3 for simplicity. Let's change the game to only a single generator can be worked on at a time. The moment the one chosen generator gets done, all gens are blocked until the killer secures 3 hooks. What do survivors do then you might ask? Well…

Voice Communication (SWF) Creates an Unfair Information Advantage – We Need Game Design Solutions
Dead by Daylight was designed around limited survivor communication. In-game we only have gestures and basic interactions. This limitation is clearly part of the tension and asymmetry that defines the game. However, in practice, many survivor groups play as SWF using external voice communication (Discord and similar…

Killers should not be balanced according to statistics. Statistically, the Nurse is average, but she
I have 7k hours of Dead by Daylight, I've had my mono oni, mono spirit, mono surv days, I play with all the killers. To this day, I don't understand what Behavior is waiting for to nerf Blight and Kaneki. These two killers are absurdly strong when played by someone who masters them due to their mobility. Blight hitting the…

What has BHVR done???
so I took a long break from dbd. I was on a two month break before Springtrap, and then played him for a handful of games and haven’t touched dbd since….until recently. As in one day. And every game is a trash heap dumpster fire of bullshit. As a killer all the survivors I get anymore all just bring gen speed builds and…

The Bleak Killer Experience & Why I want A New Game Mode | | Entirely New Game
I've noticed a bit of a negative and repetitive gameplay loop both as survivor and killer. If the killer decides to tunnel, and does so successfully, it will force the team to sacrifice themselves to protect the tunneled survivor. If the killer has mobility powers with gen regression perks, it's basically game over. If the…

Day 17 of the Krasue arc
Prestige 12 has been achieved and Im gonna be honest I genuinely didn’t think i would enjoy playing as Krasue as much as I am but Im having fun so who really cares. Another update at prestige 13. Also I’m thinking about doing a poll for who Im playing next at prestige 19.

Head On should be reverted
With Patch 9.0.0 BHVR changed how the AFK crow system works. Which also directly or indirectly (not sure if this was an intentional change. Hopefully it wasn't) buffed Head On to work even though you have AFK crows on you. Before 9.0.0 if you get a single afk crow you no longer would be able to use head on. Which makes…
