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.

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…

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…

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…

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…

Focus on a Worthy Rework for Michael Myers
The proposed rework has good intentions, but in my view, it strays too far from the original essence of the character. The new dash ability, while fun, does not align with Myers’ identity in Dead by Daylight. As someone who mains this killer, I believe a faithful and balanced rework would be much more deserved. Below I…

Console players who main killers like Trickster, Blight, Nurse, Huntress, etc., how do you do it?
With these killers notoriously bring harder on console do to playing with a controller, how have you learned to do it and what are some tips you have for other console players

A question about Houndmaster Voicelines.
What happens with her stun and hook voice lines ? in this clip here only some rare hook voices but never the stun sounds. Have they really remove it or bugged ? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jWVYB1aqkwM

Here me out, sorry if someone has already asked/said this.
What if in the 2 vs 8, instead of the killers working together, how about scoring points? picking them off in a vs? sorta like freddy vs jason in a sense, I don't know it may or may not work I could be speaking mad, just sort of wondered, Also alas wondering a battle royal with the survs now lol

Cheaters are spreading in 2v8
Now I have encountered 2 cheaters in 3 matches and its becoming annoying more and more, same cheats from cheapest budget they can buy probably with no counterplay decinding turn of the match. Just got mishone reapearing gens infront killer face and no pissibility to injurre her,grab her or damage the gen, I strongly doubt…

Why developers listen to bullies to balance whole game?
Let me understand one thing: SURVIVORS: - Medkits? Nerfed. - Healing? Nerfed. - Rare item add-ons? Nerfed. - Toolboxes? Nerfed. - Generator repair time? Nerfed. - Flashlights? Nerfed. - Keys and Maps? Useless. Phew, thankfully they don't need to be nerfed! (Although the default map was supposed to create a point and show…

The pallets are lying to us!
I feel like pallets are a bait and switch scheme. You're presented with an idea, one that festers and consumes your whole identity, "what if I can use this colorful peice of junk to my advantage." Suddenly, you hear noise of somthing big comming from the distance. You realize you have just come face to face with your worst…

Add the ability to abandon if someone tunneled at the 2+ gens left
I'm not going to stay in the match any longer if they decided to tunnel someone specifically from the start and we barely managed to repair 3 gen or slugging from the start, I'm not interested in pleasing the ego of such toxic killers, the match is already clearly over for us so just add abandon in this case in the next…

Is the 9.3 Mid-Chapter coming 2 weeks after the 9.2 update?
The current rift pass is scheduled to end on Wednesday, October 8th. Whenever a new rift pass starts, it’s with the release of the mid chapter. Does that mean we should expect another ptb for the midchapter very soon or was this not pushed back along with the content delay that happened 2 weeks ago?

Can someone explain the reasoning behind the new abandon scenario?
Everytime someone suggested killers being able to abandon, it typically gets shot down since they still have a chance to make a comeback. How is this any different?

Tunneling/Slugging Update
The Slugging feature was fine but the Tunneling update was the problem not saying I need to tunnel to get kills. The problem was definitely if someone misplayed then the killer gets punished for it
-
"PTB exists to test out the changes"
This is the argument I've been seeing whenever someone discusses the new anti-slug and anti-tunnel changes. So the Twins rework that made them Nurse 2.0 was acceptable becouse it hit PTB first, right? The problem is that these ideas should have never hit PTB in the first place, it's literally a waste of resources. The 2…

So about the back pedal on the ptb...
Mostly for me, I was kinda glad about how some of that would help solo Q, AAnti-slug i would think help them a lot, and honestly might be called a fool for this, but this would be one of the good times to make a "SoloQ only" buff and have it negated for SWF.(because one is your paired with randoms and the other you are…

This Is Exactly What I've Been Saying
Mintskull does an incredible job of explaining what was good and what was bad about Anti Tunnel and Anti Slug. Check out his Video. https://youtu.be/IGunrDw5W_Y?si=FVo4ylOWjxlUDkuE Just a little note. This thumbnail being based on a certain meme is actually pretty funny to me, since this is exactly what the killer…

"Too Punishing for killers"- Yet being tunnelled and camped at 5 gens isn't punishing survivors?
I dont understand this response.. why not just make it harder to tunnel..? take some aspects and see if they work? keep the buffs from the unhooking and get rid of the gen progress aspect to it. Cant it just be met halfway?
-
Its a shame that devs are doomed if they do and doomed if they don't
Here we are again. another update that was met with such criticising from both sides so the devs quite rightly decided to hold fire and have a rethink before just pushing it to live…and what happens?? Oh look a metric ton of posts criticising their decision to pull the changes. Seriously the community can't complain that…

Cheating in 2v8
Seriously! How miserable is your life if you have cheat in 2v8 mode?? Just came across with weird cheat while I was playing Trapper. As the game went on, I wondered who is following me and triggering my traps all the time. I really thought I had put them in the most secured and hidden. Later, when I put another trap on the…

Is the PTB full of cheaters or is it a bug exploit?

BHVR devs don't play killer: Prove me wrong.
I genuinely do not think that the people at BHVR play killer. Until I see a video of the developers queueing into public matches and playing full on killer matches, I'm just going to assume that BHVR doesn't really know or care what the killer experience is like. I'd LOVE to be wrong about this.

I waited 30 minutes for this?
So…had to take a screenshot...I waited 30 minutes(though played survivor) to have a teammate be AFK the entire match I got 2 hooks by the end and just open the exit gate because I'm sorry I gave up at the end. The game never kicked them for being AFK and it has done this in the past to where an entire match a killer is AFK…

big thanks too...

Once again killer wins
Yeah guess I shouldn't have expected anything less from behavior. Nerf the first new item survivor into the ground 2 weeks from release. Completely axe the anti tunneling and slugging at day 0.

First time uninstalling the game (Rant)
The sad part is is that it isn't because of the game itself, but rather the lack of moderation or consequences. I had 3 games in a row in 2v8, 2 as survivor, 1 as killer. In ALL 3 of them where there TWO survivors that straight up gave up, trolled and grieved. And the worst one was the last one I had as a survivor, where…

No. BHVR doesn't need to tell you exactly what tunneling is
They already have, killing someone before 6 hooks is tunneling. The outrage just proves that even though something was DIRECTLY stated as being toxic and in need of punishing, there will always be people trying to move the goalposts. There is never a single instance in this game where killing someone before 6 hooks is a…

Did they buff disturbed ward on the PTB?
i’m genuinely curious because when I loaded into disturbed ward testing out the Myers rework I noticed that there were more fillers, and pallets than on the live version. Maybe I missed something when I was looking at the patch notes, can someone explain this to me?

A reminder for veterans and lesson for new players on The Original Finsisher Mori PTB.
So a few years ago on PTB, BHVR tested this new idea called "The Finisher Mori" where they had some anti-slugging (yay) with all survivors getting a basekit Unbreakable (no recovery bonus.) However, if at any time all remaining survivors were hooked or slugged, the game ended. All of them died and the last survivor downed…

How we feeling about the Myers rework
I feel Like I haven't seen enough discussion talking about Myers rework So I wanna ask, how we feeling about the Myers rework, in my opinion I just don't like his rework, mainly the dash ability that he has in his kit Just felt like it was implemented very poorly not feeling like Myers at all
-
Instead of taking all of Anti Tunnel back...
Why not add: - Elusive No Clip with Endurance Remove the unhooked Survivors aura from Floods of Rage This part is relatively unintrusive and would certainly be worth throwing up to the PTB/live to see their effect on the game. You can then look at adding further effects if needed.

This is driving me nuts
Michael Myers new attack IS NOT A DASH!!!! I really hate this fascination that Myers is 100% ruined cause of a “dash” that’s not even a dash it’s just a super coup de grace lunge And btw I’m sick of this dash slop term. It was only invented cause of annoying killer deigns but now it’s just thrown around and generalized oh…
