No Network Connection
I've been playing DbD for years and I've never encountered this issue. I have a stable network connection and have been receiving this message for the past few days when trying to log in to DbD through Steam. Is anyone else having this issue? Any solutions? https://imgur.com/a/xhHoXky

How to deal with Dredges Nightfall?
I just faced Dredge the second time now, and haven't bought her myself yet so i can't go for testing on her. Just this really newbie-like question: What to do at nightfall, as a Surv? I barely see anything, and lockers are a no-go if playing against Dredge as far as I can remember? You just go on doing gens and stuff,…
Is This Reportable? Please Don't Set Me on Fire.
Okay, so I'm playing Nurse, and I caught a survivor body blocking another in a doorway. I proceeded to blink through them, go after the sandbagger, down them and camp them out of the match. If the douche clipped me nodding at the other survivor as they left them to die, could that be reportable as working with the other…

What is your favorite year in DBD and why? (You can specify several years at once)
My favorite years were 2018 and 2019. Then, in my opinion, there were some of the best chapters, again for me personally. I liked the old maps, their visuals, the old character models, the old Freddy, the old Billy, the old balance of perks and killer skills (yes, I liked playing against Nurse 3 Blink or Nurse 6 Blink :DD)…
hey have the devs said anything on crossprogresion between microsoft store/windows and steam?
basicly i own DBD through the microsoft store but i want to get it on steam so i can more easily do things with my friends and all the articles online talk about xbox/ps4 and steam or steam and epic games is microsoft store/windows lumped in with xbox? or if its not how would i transfer my progress from there to steam?…
Is it bannable for dying survivors to crawl on top of one another?
Like if I have been picked up and dropped, and the killer cannot pick me up without me wiggling free, and I crawl on top of another downed survivor so that the killer can't pick them up without possibly grabbing me instead. Is this a valid strategy or abuse of an exploit?
any idea how long it takes for the killer to drop the survivor?
is it the same time as the pickup animation?
Hiding names in trials?
I've seen some content creators who have the players' names completely hidden during the match, and I'm wondering, how do they do that? All I can find are settings to change player names to their characters' names. One person suggested Anonymous Mode, but when I tried that, it still showed the other players' names during…
Why are some survivor displays outlined with white in the game menu and some are not?
Talking about this screen: Why doesn't Cheryl Mason have a white outline? None of them were bots, none of them were crossplay. It varies with every game, sometimes nobody has one, sometimes multiple people have it. (It being the second person in this one is just coincidence, it's not consistent)
Why isn't Haddie's Fogchaser skin available with shards?

Terrible performance on a PC, game is unplayable, need advice on how to fix

How does DBD League scoring work?
I was watching some DBD League on Youtube today and was wondering how points work. I see that a first hook on a Survivor is 3, hook states afterwards are 2 each. Generators are 2 each. But when three survivors escaped, they got 8 points total for that? Does anyone mind breaking down the scoring format for me? Thank you so…

Does someone elso experience fps drops after the new update when picking up or hooking survivors?
Since any "technical problems" cannot be connected to bugs for some reason, I will try my luck here. Since the update I experience sever fps drops when picking up or hooking survivors. Nothing similar happens on survivor side, nor during the chase or other actions as killer. It does not even always happen when I play…

Why can survivors surrender the game but Killer cant?
Why can survivors kill themself at the hook and instandly que for a new game and killers are forced to play even when its over? The whole problem with toxic SWF groups, holding game hostage, would be solved if the killer could just surrender the game. For toxic players the game would become very soon very boring since all…

PS5 Trophies not popping
First off, I apologize if this question had been repeated multiple times I just haven’t seen it asked in this depth** So like many players, I’ve recently switched from ps4 to ps5 version, with the understanding trophies won’t auto pop (which is totally fine I don’t care to earn them again).
