What should actually be considered "winning" in DBD?
For ME personally, earning a pip is a win. I don't always have to escape or get a 4k. But when you play well enough to earn pips, the game is pretty much saying you should be playing with/against higher ranked players. But that's just my take. I'd like to know what you guys think. There are a lot of players that take this…

Has BHVR made any comment on if they are going to update Rick Grimes' scream/pain sounds?
I was going to get Rick Grimes to prestige 100 because he's one of my favorite characters from any TV show/comic but I can't stand the actor they used for his screams. It sounds NOTHING like him. Has anyone heard any discussion on that in any of their dev talks or social media?

DbD Makes Steam take more than 21gbs ram at a random time
Hey, I’m having a really weird issue and I’m wondering if anyone else has seen this. Sometimes when I play DBD (could be after 5 minutes or after 1–2 hours), the game crashes or I leave a match, and then Steam suddenly starts using like 21 GB of RAM or more. When that happens, Steam becomes super slow or freezes, other…

Kindred Base-kit?
I have been thinking about this for a while, Borrowed Time was able to become base-kit, why can't Kindred? It's a great information perk but I don't personally think it would be overpowered to have it implemented into the game as a basic mechanic. I was wondering if anyone has any arguments against it?

Can you no longer hear the wind sound from closed hatches?
I have a memory from playing Dead by Daylight in the past two years where I could predict the location of unopened hatches on the map by the sound of the wind.
