Time out for cheating is wild
They acknowledged the cheating, but if you quit when someone cheats against you, you still get locked out. And I understand the problem with rage quitting, but come on. If you're getting tunneled left and right because killers are mad then it's just not fun. And I play killer so I'm not talking about the survivors that are…

This is starting to piss me off
I really dislike in 2v8 how, whenever you select a class, it changes automatically whenever: 1. You select a different survivor 2. After 4/4 people already picked it and you get forced into a different one, but it even stores the forced different one for the next match, instead of the original one you picked I feel like…

Developers, go play killer.
After reading your patch notes there’s no question you guys have no idea how killers are played, the time it takes to kill a survivor and the knowledge you requiere to actually challenge good / decent survivors. If you are going to balance your game for people that have no skill, are new or are just messing around, you are…

Objectivity vs emotional reactions
After the latest PTB patch notes were released, it was no surprise that it divided the community, most arguments and comments diluded into us vs them. Regardless of what side a player is voicing their opinion from, I think it now more important now than ever to be objective about these changes. Unbiased and looking at the…

A Basement Hot Take
So as Im writing this I don't really think it's a good idea but my thoughts are what if all Killer powers are disabled while in the basement and all Killers move at 115% or 4.6 m/s. That would mean no more traps in basement, no more insta downs, no teleporting, etc.. it would also not let survivors use killer items such as…

9.2.0 patch
The 9.20 patch makes Dead by Daylight less fun by adding dumb restrictions like blocking generators and speeding up gen progress when a survivor dies, which only makes the game feel restrictive and snowbally. These changes reward bad survivor gameplay, letting players who recklessly stay in the killer’s face still get…

Patch 9.2.0 will destroy the balance
Well, I see a lot of people panicking and even outraged about the 9.2.0 preview, and with good reason. I understand that many hate tunneling and the slug, but there are already perks in the game to counteract this. In my opinion, the devs want to make the game easier for the survivor instead of improving bad perks that no…

Why is there no MMR?
People constantly claim DBD has mmr, but its just not true. Every single match recently, I play against people with 10x my hours, and I end with 3 hooks max. Next patch completely kills killer on top of that, so what am I meant to do? Uninstall? I wait 15 minutes just to get ######### on every match, and my apparently…

On the Anti Tunneling
I have been thinking, about the Anti-Tunneling, specifically on the gen regression and block prevention. Isn't this also semi targeting those matches when the Suvivor gives up immediately? Like you find them and they stop moving or stay under the hooks? Because a killer trying to prevent the regression/block prevention…
-
Are killers the only one that generate uninteractive gameplay?
I understand that the changes coming to ptb, are because sluggin and tunneling are boring playstyles to the receiving end, because they reduce their interation with the game, therefore i can agree with making the game more frenetic, but wouldnt that have to include immersing and gen rush? Both reduce the interaction the…

Is the PTB on Tuseday or Wednesday available?
So, usually a PTB drops on Tuseday and even in the developer update they said next Tuseday (September 2nd) is the release of the PTB. However, the social media accounts just dropped a new teasers that says the PTB will be on September 3rd (Wednesday). So, which one is true?

I think this patch will finally make me want to play the game again
Honestly reading everything about his patch seems great It might actually revive the survivor players by making it so not every game is a confirmed loss Killer players will now get into matches much faster because of it aswell they get basekit bbq! Literally all killer players need to do is not tunnel and theyre given…

Why Do PC Players...
Get a toggle option? Like I know why but they have the ability to Spin and 180 Lunge without trying. I play console and don't want to throw up every time I tilt the right toggle for an advantage no one should have. I have default/low camera sensitivity and toggle off for the same reason. Commitment to the horror aspects. I…

Sadako Deserves a Rework. Please consider these changes BHVR.
I've been thinking about this recently because I honestly feel like the way condemn works genuinely cripples her design space. Condemn is both exceptionally powerful and exceptionally inconsistent. That power prevents her from having any meaningful ability in any other area despite the fact actually getting the mori often…

This is a Surv-Welcome game, Killers are nothing more than Servants or NPCs in an escape game.
"Frustrating for survs"? Huh, have they ever thought about "frustrating for killers" if Survs play aggressively? Does anyone watch live on the Hong Kong server? Surv players there play extremely aggressively. I used to watch Killer streaming a lot, but now, I just feel as stressed as the killer streamer. They are not…

Is this the start of REAL gore in DBD?
With the whole head-detaching feature (I hope it's true) and possibly even more additions with this new Killer. I wonder, did the devs change their stance on gore? 🤔 They’ve mentioned before that some countries have pretty strict laws and regulations when it comes to violent content in games. If that’s the case, how are…

Please...just bring lights out back
I think it was only out twice but just 2v8 and chaos is getting dull or overall boring. Lights out had just a few days then poof it was gone but it feels like you can't go a month without chaos or 2v8 showing up...just please for the love of anything bring lights out back or just a new modifier. I took a good break maybe…

Lithe
So I have seen a lot of survivors hardcore metaing Lithe like no tomorrow. Making this game incredibly painful as killer. Usually if survivors over abuse a perk, it normally gets nerfed or changed. Why hasn't Lithe been touched up yet? And what are some good perks to counter it? Its just SO ANNOYING its like everyone's…

(Please read this devs) my early thoughts on PTB 9.2.0
Slugging reduction: for the most part, I think this is fine. I do feel like if 90 seconds isn’t enough you can maybe bump that up to like 120 seconds. But overall, if you are really going to slug a survivor to go after another person real quick that’s nearby. That’s probably gonna take like 40 to 50 seconds. I do feel like…

why are killer only players panicking
every time they've introduced something to "address survivor complaints" i remember them nerfing it to the point where it's completely ineffective. why do people think this will be any different?

About the Upcoming hook incentives .
having a semi basekit pop , furtive and bbq is not the same strenght for all killers . Firstly the gen regression needs to be applied on hook ( rework Pain ress to balance this) . The reason is that even on live version perks like pop are not as usefull on the low tiers for two reasons . They lack the time and mobility to…

New update…..Game killer?
played this game from release,seen some really good updates and some bad.I had given up on this game twice before due to some of the updates and frustration on playing them.I do play mainly killer and am happy with a 2k,play for fun and not a sweat.Never play meta builds actually like playing trapper and occasionally…

Map offering changes really killed scratched mirror myers
its a shame as the jumpscare myers playstyle was the most fun you could have in dbd. Now if i pick a offering to go to lerys im probably gonnna get coldwind as a map where everyone can see you from a mile away. If you wanted to change map offerings just have when survivors choose an offering have it be 20% and if the…

Would BHVR consider "The Last Of Us" License Chapter?
Just imagine how popular this chapter would be, most popular survivors could be Ellie and Joel and maybe even Abby? I think this would be a really big chapter for them considering its so many diff locations they can choose if they brung a map to this chapter, St. Mary's Hospital, Jackson, The Boston Mall, Silver…

So that last patch notes.
So those last patch notes are something, if they go live can we reduce hooks from 3 to 2, remove the tbagging ability, and increase generators from 5 to 7? I think that would be a fair trade. Also I'm kinda shitposting here so don't take it to serious. Just some ideas.

Dwight the Brave and Dwight's Fright
Dwight the Brave and Dwight's Fright are two Tome challenges from Tome 3 levels 3 and 4 that are just annoying to get. You have to hide within 10 meters of the Killer for both of them. One for 60 seconds and the other for just 30 but also escape. I know the tome challenge will display on your screen when completed but I…

How about instead of basekit pop its pain resonance? Thoughts?
This idea comes from user @Slan So basically the basekit pain resonance, it would save time a lot of time actually than just having basekit pop that requires you to hit a gen. Yes it removes ability to choose which gen which to regress and will probably make certain people mad but this is just more in flow and more natural…

The PTB Live Balance preview got pushed to wednesday as well?

We need dev's to trust themselves with update, not the community.
I know, title isn't what most people want. I love newest developer update. It's definitely about time - we need to adress those survivior's pain points (slugging and tunneling). It will finally be the time, that we won't need to be using meta perks like unbreakable, decisive strike etc. We will finally be able to use worse…

Gen rushing vs. Tunneling
It's a silly argument. Killer's mains continue this silly dialogue; I'm doing my objective, it's my job. Completing gens is literally the objective of the survivor. It's a strawman argument. The difference is, survivors can't abuse the system to change gens to 4v1. It's always 5 gens; regardless.

Anyone else thinking the forums have become pointless?
Clickbait title aside, I'm sure you've felt it as well. Loads of negativity, people on both sides reinforcing their prejudices against the other? I can't help but think that with how many comments and posts I see that not only devolve into wars over which side is being bullied more. Part of me thinks that this community,…

Enforcer's Mark Doesn't Go Away
It's like Ghostface's Exposed Mark but it isn't. I ran around the whole Trial luckily avoiding him. It didn't even go away when he hit someone else. Unless the Legion was getting every hit off, this perk is just a perk. No downside. If Legion was the Enforcer, that's even worse. What is the point of Haste vs Injured when…

Spirit’s husk supposedly had its hitbox reduced?
Can anyone confirm if this is true or not and if so, how does it affect her doing the “ husk tech “ ? I also haven’t seen any official information regarding this even if it’s true that her husk’s hitbox was reduced.

I have to wonder if the new killer has a "heavy slug" ability, hence the changes
Given the most likely theories surrounding the new killer, such as the idea that she might be able to seperate her head from her body and float after survivors, I have to wonder if her ability is some kind of mix of twins and Draculas bat form. Which is interesting because the twins kit heavily leans towards slugging. And…

A little more clarity about when the 9.2.0 PTB is
When the dev update dropped the other day, at the very end in the ‘perk updates’ dev note it was stated that a discord live preview of the upcoming live balance changes will be on tuesday (september 2nd) with full PTB patch notes releasing after. But just a few hours ago, another teaser for the new chapter dropped and at…

Killers who will be Effected by the Update and why
I wanted to start off by saying these maybe extreme, minor or even Similar results. I wanted to make this to show exactly how much this will effect the game and create my feedback on the Patchnotes Trapper: this one will make Trapper avoid Trapped survivors who where already been hooked and make Trapper Mains not use traps…

Options to help killers spread hooks
This topic came up in another post so I'm giving it its own. 1. Make the hook states visible to killers. Many players often ask for this. The argument against it has been that it could encourage specifically targeting people with more states. But with the game now baking-in the need to spread hooks, states need to be…

Should we force a play style on the survivors as well
With the new patch we can all see that the devs eant to force a play style to the killers. Now i don't say if it's good or bad but should the same be happening to the survivors as well. For example if 2 gens are completed with in 60 seconds of each other all gen are block and can't be repaired for some time. Or After the…

Elusive Status Effect
So I made a list of what Perks I think could get this new Status Effect, Buffing most of not all of them. Even if Survivors have the Elusive Status effect active they can Still Scream, be detected by Killer instinct, and have their Location revealed by Perks like Rancor, Death bound, Hex: Face the Darkness, Ultimate…

I'm amazed that killers are surprised by the changes
It's not uncommon for killer mains to have an average kill rate of 70%. Some even with 80%. The concept of "win streaks" should never be possible in a competitive pvp game with mmr. The game just became an ego boost for killer mains where survivors were just supposed to be punching bags for a killer's enjoyment. Survivors…

Myers Rework, Junpscare thoughts
So The Shape's rework has got me wondering. Will they still keep the mirror add on? Like for jump scare myers builds, and just rework them so you can't build stalk for evil incarnate mode? Idk if its just me, but as a killer main i loved Jump Scare myers, be it when I played him, or the times I played survivor and faced…

Here's a list of perks I think will be affected by the changes.
I don't want to doompost too much since we have no numbers and no idea which perks will be changed, but behaviour please tell me you actually changed a lot of perks and not just 2/3 perks like you did with the removing of haste and hindered stacking. Here's a list of survivor perks that will make playing killer after just…

The new Myers dash would fit Ghostface better (+ suggestion for the Shape)
Both killers have a similar kit and are in needs of a buff, but honestly that new Myers lunge doesn't really fit the character at all thematically. In the movies, Myers walks slowly and relentlessly, and appears and disappears randomly almost as if he was teleporting. I don't think giving him a Pig ambush makes justice to…

Poor Sadako
Why is Sadako not getting any buffs or changes since her condemned will now be useless for half the match? It's nice to see Oni get something for the slugging changesm but Sadako is just being abandoned for no reason. If you want to play Sadako well, you need to pressure survivors with condemned. Well with the anti tunnel…

Story time
When a killer works with another survivor, it shatters this fundamental understanding of the game. It creates an unfair advantage, a betrayal of the basic rules that makes it impossible to play on a level field. For Kelly, it's not just a minor frustration; it's a profound violation of the trust and understanding that the…
