What does each Killer and Survivor do in their spare time outside of the Trials?
So, we all know that whenever a Killer or Survivor finishes a Trial, they all spawn at the campfire, but why? But also, while all of them are waiting at the campfire, waiting for the next Trial to begin. What do all of them do in their spare time? Do they spend their time talking to their friends and reuniting together? Or…
What’s your favorite Gen Build? (Survivor)
Interested in trying a Gen build. What do you like or find effective?
Server issue icon?
Any fix for this issue? My ping is good but i keep teleporting every 2 minutes, making the game unplayable. I'm talking about the icon with 2 squares. The issue started yesterday.
Elodie's orange shirt
I dont have this shirt (and I want it), I heard that I have to buy her Chapter in Steam store to unlock this. But I already have everyone except Twin in this bundle. Do I have to buy a whole bundle for the price of 2 full Chapters just for this shirt?
Will The Community Be Compensated For Shop Price Changes?
With shop prices changing, I was wondering if we would receive compensation for the prices being changed since some outfits have inconsistent pricing. I feel like I would have waited to make a few purchases had I known that the prices were going to change, and just finding out about this has made me concerned that I might…
Any console Oni Mains here?
Can you flick with him? I can only do a sharp 90 degree. Is be just easier on PC?
Can Hatch spawn on the second floor of maps?
Can the Hatch spawn upstairs on maps like Ormond, Hawkins and Midwich?
Problem with my settings

Who waaaants to be my Duo when 2v8 comes out? 😍
Onyro main - need another killer to be my duooooooo 🥰 Merciless applicants only :p
New Rift/Tome date?
Anyone got a date for the new Rift/Tome release since the last one ended the other day?
Survivor's marked by Ghostface question
Just wanted a quick verification. After fully marking a survivor without being revealed, that marked survivor will not be able to reveal Ghostface, and only that survivor will hear and see his terror radius and red stain? Which would make something like Olsen's Journal addon make sense (marked survivor's are oblivious) The…
Packet Loss?
Anyone ever suddenly get packet loss but only when playing DBD? I can't figure out ######### is going on. I even have an app looking at my internet to see if its dropping but it isn't. It would sometimes have no impactand just show the yellow icon. Then it started doing the teleport crap in game when showing the red icon.…
What are counters to slugging for 4k?
I constantly get trapped in slug-for-4k matches as a survivor and I don’t know what to do. What are some options? Is there anything optimal?
Should Purple Medkits guarantee two full heals?
My most played/prestiged character, Killer or Survivor, is Cheryl. She's prestige 39 and has 37 purple medkits. I have consistently put bloodpoints into her for around two years while benefitting from the Blood Moon Event and the Anniversary event. Still, I only have 37 purple medkits. At least 25% of the Blights I verse…
Did they give Singularity a change and I missed it?
I can hear globally when a biopod gets nuked by an emp, I didn’t use to be able to.
Why do people complain about this so called Tunneling?
So, for the past month or so, I've been thoroughly enjoying Bubba. I've gotten many complaints over messages saying that I'm either 'camping' or 'tunneling' on account of going for the damaged survivor when they get off the hook. Also, telling me it's typical for a Bubba to do this sort of thing, having no surprise in the…
Good Builds for Singularity for high MMR?
I’m P22 with him and I get a lot of SWFS. Trying to see what builds synergize well with him. :) Thank you!
Game Freezing.PTB
Faced with such a problem. Sometimes, when loading into a match, the game freezes. The match doesn't load, and other players are shown that I'm disconnected. When I played the main game, not the ptb, everything was fine. Has anyone had the same? is there any fix for this problem?
How does the Entity communicate to Killers and Survivors to do its bidding?
I only just thought of this question just now, but how on Earth can the Entity communicate to its Killers and Survivors? And how can they understand what it is trying to tell them? I mean, if you take a look at the killers' universal perk called Whispers, right? Well, that's what I think it is called anyway. However,…
How does the Entity views things from its perspective?
So, this isn't usually a common question you would come across with, when it comes to Dead by Daylight. But I've been quite curious about this for quite a while now… So the biggest question is, how does the Entity view bugs and glitches are happening in the Trials? Us, as survivors or killers, would see this as a bug,…
Bloodsense Maps - After Event?
Will we be able to use these maps after the event like we can use firecrackers? Or will they all deactivate when the event ends?
Ghost Face reveal distance?
Does anyone know the max distance from Ghost Face to reveal him from stealth?
seasonal codes for badges/banners
I dislike how easy it is to miss a code in this game, I missed one of the badge codes for blood moon event, and now it's no longer redeemable (BloodFest) Will this code become redeemable again on the next Blood Moon event?
Outta Nowhere Achievement
Hitting 40 survivors with basic attack while you are Undetectable should work on Scratched Mirror Myers or if you are using Trail of Torment I would think, right? I tried a few matches but none of these attacks counted, it only seemed to count when I was playing Chucky who I assume came out with this new achievement. Am I…
In your experience, do time-limited cosmetic from redeemable codes ever return?
I just only recently found out that there is the blood droplet badge which was redeemable from 26th - 31 March 2024. I was really disappointed to have found that it had expired because it looked really good with the blood moon banner. I would not mind if the dead by daylight store starts selling banners and badges in the…
Why does my killer banner show Ash 4?
After a game of killer a little Ash 4 Rank icon appears on the top left corner of my banner on the scoreboard. I’m Silver 1. Anyone know why this is?

Keyboard Issues on Linux
Hi Community! I'm wondering if anyone else is having issues with their keyboard on Linux right after starting an online match, regardless of playing as a killer or survivor after the latest patch. I have been playing on Linux (openSUSE and debían) with no issues until this last patch. Connecting a controller and enabling…
Is it easier to play MM2 killers on PC VS Console.
I play on a Ps5, but I was curious if it’s easier to play M2 killers on pc? Like getting better shots with, huntress, trickster, unknown, or curving with oni etc? (Should I include pyramid head since his is a shockwave,?)
Hi! I can’t seem to play my Dead by Daylight Mobile
upon opening the app, on the loading screen it keeps on loading. Screenshot below the Initialization loading below the Main Title is overlapping. I tried restarting my phone (iPhone 15 PM), uninstalling and reinstalling the app. I also did Fix Client multiple times by to no avail. please help
When you blow gen by missing a skill check, how much progress is lost?
curious :)
Does your MMR as killer not go up if you get a 3k?
Just curious. My friend usually always lets one go but his opponents are pretty silly
Would this work?
So were all familiar with NOED by now, how it makes everyone exposed and you gain haste. Anyway i have just recently bought the plague found my self wondering if my corrupted vomit would instantly knock a survivor if NOED is active.
Bloodsense Map
Sorry I might be misunderstanding something but the in-game description states that objects with auras are revealed to me as long as the map has charges but I'm not seeing this. So a base Crystal bead like effect? When I look at the wiki it says it reveals injured survivors. So is this map just an Empathy?
What’s the spawn logic for Cages?
How does Pyramid Head cages spawn logic work? It’s so weird. I thought it was furthest from me but sometimes it amazon primes the survivor to their teammate.
Xbox_pc
Anyone know how to fix this I have tried everything, works on my Xbox just not on my pc Xbox app, i have uninstalled, rebooted my pc, EAC is running fine when booted, Fortnite works and runs of EAC, started when game pass ran out and then I renewed it and still getting this.
Old Mute Focus? No Map Intro Sound when tabbed out?
Many patches ago we were able to get a sound que when the match started. BHVR for some reason patched it ??? If you have mute focus on and tab out, you no longer get a notification (map intro sound) that the match started. any way to fix this? This sucks because i'd like to do music stuff in FL Studio without hearing billy…
When does the ptb release?

Do the kill stats take into account matches where people intentionally commit suicide on the hook?
We know that matches with disconnects will not be counted. But what about matches where the players give up straight away and don't seriously finish the match (hook suicide, trolling)? I know this isn't a Dev Q&A subforum, but I don't know where else to ask my question. @Peanits has made it clear several times that the…
New shop question for the devs
Will we be able to buy the bundles of characters that are for example in the PlayStation store in the new ingame store? Since you said it might be possible to get cross progression for content you bought in the ingame store this would cool.
Can anyone help me with this crash error im experiencing?
I cant play the game anymore since the latest bugfix update yesterday. I tried every fix out there and still nothing. Fatal error: [File:Unknown] [Line: 258] Direct3DDevice->CreateUnorderedAccessView(Texture->GetResource(),&UAVDesc,(ID3D11UnorderedAccessView**)UnorderedAccessView.GetInitReference()) failed at…

Xbox to ps5
hey I’m new here. There is a way so I can transfer my data from Xbox to ps5???
Can I get banned for leveling up characters with an autoclicker?
Can I launch the game, open bloodweb, place my mouse cursor on the auto-purchase node and launch an autoclicker? I'm not talking about hacking in more BP or anything like that, I just want to level up characters while making myself tea or going to the toilet.
Build recommendations for Pig?
I’m getting my butt kicked as pig. I love her but I suck. My high mmr isn’t giving me a chance to breathe. I need Pig help and builds. Begginer build? I get gen rushed hard. 😭
Does MFT not work with For The People?
I’ve been trying a new build with using MFT and For The People. The times I used it were to heal someone injured to healthy, not dying to injured. Does this combo not work on purpose? Or should this be working?

Disconnected from host issue
Apparently this doesn’t count as a bug to bhvr even though it is caused by their servers which they refuse to acknowledge are having issues for some reason. pretty self explanatory ever since the blood moon event started I’ve had constant connection issues with frequent yellow bars, everyone in our matches having over 200+…
Blood Moon currency to spare
Hey! I'm just curious: is this the first time at an event that some Trinkets (Thrombotic, in this case) are left after finishing the book and purchasing all the products in the Store? Because I just completed both levels of the event tome and acquired all the goodies from the Store, but there is still 250 Trinkets left. In…
my game has a constant infinite loading screen (bloodmoon event 2024)
Currently, 100% of the time i get into the loading screen to get into the match will not load, i have waited up to 1 hour and nothing happens, this is such a shame because this event has a big bloodpoint multiplier and i cannot play at all, i would like atleast a tiny compensation, i have been trying to play for the last 5…
