After seeing some posts about the terms we commonly use in game, I thought I'd create a thread with a list of the most common ones - any that need to be added, please comment below and I will add them to the list. Acronyms BBQ Barbeque & Chilli, Teachable Leatherface perk STBFL Save the Best for Last – Teachable Myers Perk…

Welcome to the Ask the Community subforum! This is the place to go if you've got a question you'd like answered. Maybe you're new and wondering how something works, or maybe you're a long time player curious about a specific fine detail. The rules here are pretty simple: There are no dumb questions. (Be nice to each…

Hey friends I have a couple of suggestions for the DBD team as well as a question for you all. I feel the game would be a lot better if they went back to the old tome challenges since it makes the game more of a "grind". Do you all feel the same way? It makes the game more fun and exciting when you have a reason to play…

Missing Cosmetics j logged in dbd as usual on playstation and when selecting my killer I noticed his outfits was back to normal then as I went to edit it was gone then found it in the store for purchase almost all my cosmetics are gone that I earned or got with erredesecnt

Definitely would be funny (I know, this edit sucks, took me like few seconds alr)

Hi, has anyone else experienced missing info on official stats tracker now or in the past? My 2v8 killer stats is missing character Nurse and Huntress completely and Nurse is my most played killer in 2v8. Now it says that Wraith is my top 1 played killer (which actually should be my second played killer there). Recent…

Hey, me and my group have really high ping for DbD since Tuesday. It was fine on Monday, but we just can't play, thought maybe it was a server issue and would just palyntje next day. We join a match and all 3 of us have a red bar along with two or three other randoms every lobby. Every other game we play is fine and have…

I have two copies of the same comic; if I enter both codes, will I be able to get two different charms?

Enough said I think, his look is unsatisfying to say the least.

So short story. I was queing as survivor to a 2v8 and at the last second a guy posts somethingt along the way (to quick to screenshot, guess saves me the censorwork): "Hello guys, I'm gona freeze the Loadingscreen for 5 Minutes and cancel the Game. HF!" So I am not here to yell: "There's a Cheater omg!". Thats like be mad…

(I use Epic Games) For about a month I've been getting these really unfortunate crashes, especially during killer games and killer 2v8 games. They usually happpen completely at random but always during gameplay. I have tried many solutions from google and other posts, such as: sfc/scannow, dism, verifying games files,…

With the new buffed perk, does Do No Harm stack with Shoulder the Burden. So if a survivor is hooked twice then you take one hook stage away, would you heal them 150%?

Long story short: I haven't played since the Tokyo Ghoul release. I got Springtrap when he came out and I played a few matches online to learn him, but that was it. Long story long: last month I updated the game, booted it up, and was immediately overwhelmed by 300 popups and menu click-throughs, a constant stream of…

Why did all my DLC disappear one day on both Steam and on the platform I bought it on (Xbox)? I owned nearly every killer and survivor and now I don't have them anymore.

I'm a highschool student; I'm writing a paper, and I wanted to know whether or not there was any way to see global stats. I really want to write my E.E on DbD, but I can't seem to find the global stats outside of "Highest kill rate in xy county." (I just want to know kill/escape rates) Thanks y'all, love y'all so so much…

I missed out on the Jester skin for the Wraith and Ive been bummed out about it does anyone know when it might come back?

So the 4 perks that I reccomend for anyone who want's to try out this build are: Dead Hard, Resilience, Iron Will, 5 Moves Ahead. I'm using this build to max out my looping, since Resilience is very balanced and good when you are injured. (BGI: While injured, you get 9% speed on all actions. It's a free general perk that…

I took a vacation recently, and was excited to play when I got back, but my ping is super bad now because the Ohio server is down (the one my game usually connects to), and I don't want to play if I'm getting hit from the other side of the country lol. I know it's been down for about 3 days, is there any word on when it's…

Essentially, with the new perk changes a lot of unhealthy perks got nerfed and a ton of weaker perks got huge buffs. I was curious as to what you guys thought would be some amazing secret perks or combos to use. I'll start with killers Dark Arrogance, Ravenous, and Whispers. Then for survivors I think Road Life, Do No…

Just wondering

Since last Wednesday, I simply can’t play a match without getting kicked for high ping. My ping oscillates between 40 and 500, and I end up being removed from the match and banned for abandoning it. I already called the internet technicians, we replaced the equipment, but it didn’t help. Does anyone else relate?

Exactly what the title says, what killers do you think will eventually be added into future 2v8 events? (both original and licensed)

I mean, I have a lot of perks, but I don't really know how to find the ones that fit me. Honestly, I am not good not taking hits, so Finesse won't help me that much, do you know what other perks are good for practising looping?

When I try to join a specific friend's room, he receives the invitation and accepts it, but nothing happens. The same thing happens when he tries to join mine. I'd like to know if there's anything that can be done about this—it only happens with him; with other people, it works fine.

I'm not sure if this is the right place to ask but I haven't been able to play in days and my support ticket is in queue because there's a high volume of inquiries. As of the update this afternoon I'm 2 updates behind now because I'm on Switch, and I've been plagued with the initialization error telling me my game's loaded…

I genuinely hate seeing the same 30 perks every game, and was curious as to why people only use meta perks? Obviously its just to win, but as long as you're actually good at the game or even just have good fundamentals winning is relatively easy. On the survivor side I personally never use meta perks on survivor aside from…

Discord handle: \@readycent Ban Date: ~1 year ago Ban Length: Permanent Ban Reason: Don't remember exact reason, but probably had something to do with being raunchy, too self aggrandizing, or something like that. I have had a few bans in the past for minor issues like not minding my audience with my jokes (ie.…

Dredge is the killer with the greatest potential of skins but none have voice lines and with Witcher ever gaining more appraisal, there's a lot more skin potentials CD Projekt RED would possibly go for. Hear me out… Iris' Greatest Fear as a Dredge Skin: Why does it work perfectly? Geralt faces multiple clones of Olgierd…

So I've been thinking, if one survivor can go inside, why not both? It can also be a good hiding spot, and it would reduce the quantity of lockers spreaded on the map. Since I am talking about this, here's how I would balance it if I was a dev at BHVR. New locker mechanic: Instead of one Survivor, you can add another…

im trying to find people to play this game with but i was banned from the discord like 3-4 years ago and ive been trying to find a way to request an appeal but idk how or if i even can

I want to play in borderless window with vsync off but every time I turn the game off and come back it's reset to fullscreen vsync on. What can I do to fix this? Google says to edit the ini file but either I'm doing it wrong or it's not working

Now that the new chapter is out i still see crossplay is disabled? how come? are we getting a new update or?

I played almost every day during this DLC launch week and barely got matched against any Judgment, like 10, most of them were on launch day trying for Adepts. I don't know if the MMR reset did something, but it's really weird. P.S. I faced more Jasons than usual xdd

Does anyone else have the problem with the Ready button in the shop covering everything up, so you can't buy anything? (screenshot) You can't click on the Auric Cells or Iridescent Shards because of that.

So I'm a little confused about the purpose of this perk. Is it essentially a reskinned Adrenaline with a mini sprint burst thing?

Can you tell me exactly how in the world you use this addon? After a certain streamer got it nerfed (making it so you cant control when to shoot the beam is an overall nerf and you cant change my mind) I fail to see how you even use this addon. What am I missing here? Every game is use it is just bad. The speed mechanic is…

I've gotten 2 crash reports last night and it gave me a penalty. I log in today and remove the 5 minute and play like 2 games and it crashed on the 3rd match. What is going on….

Has anyone had them or know a hint for a fix? I'm tired of often getting 15 minutes ban from matchmaking because of technical issues. I leave the crash logs here:

As its not very clear what it does through gameplay besides getting a tiny 10 points at a time.

I've been playing Judgement a ton as of the past 2-3 hours, and was wanting to improve some more. I am wondering if there's a way to know where the Shrines spawn, or how to find the 2 closest shrines to me easily.

I owned the DND chapter for a few months, but i logged on today to see a 500 auric cells mark in front of The Lich, it still says i have him prestiged, and his perks are still playable on other killers. but i cant play him nor Aestri? im on Switch and i was hoping if i can possilby get the back? or at least get my 1000…

使用しているのはスカルマーチャントなのにクラッシュしてゲーム終了全逃げ扱いで不満が募る epicだから手抜き？ EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION DeadByDaylight_EGS_Shipping なにこれ？ 遊びたくても遊べないね、クラッシュするたびにアカウントに対してペナルティーが出るんだからさ、アプデ前はクラッシュ報告なんて出ないでサクサク遊べたのにね

This perk combo is no skill and genuinely busted, yet I don't see anyone run it anymore..? Did it secretly get nerfed or is everyone just running Decisive Strike now that its free?

I'm not seeing any trophies with Chorus of Sin. Is there meant to be some?

I just bought the killer on my console not too long ago and have been loving her, and was curious about your favorite builds for me to try.

When do they usually happen and how interesting are they? Context: I'm a HUGE Castlevania fan. I immediately got my hands on the DLC and the DLC (allowing me to play Castlevania characters) is the main reason I started playing DBD. However I'm a university student, so I'm quite on a budget with university expenses and…

so when are we gonna put it where the killers cannot see the survivors names so they can’t stream snipe plus what are we gonna do about the tunneling and slugging?

Hello everyone Could someone point me in the direction of where to ask about missing stuff? Im 99% sure i bought the rift pass for Darkest Dungeon but noticed i don't have anything from the pass.

Sorry for weird question. Does anyone saved the BHVR (moderator/developer/community manager?) reply about nemesis lingering and dragging his hitbox, confirming that it is intended mechanic? I SWEAR i remember they said it somewhere on this forum, but i can't find it :(
