Honestly bad matchmaking and proplayers in bronze are already ruining half of the games (or the night the totality of them) but how do you counter comms? I mean, if it's a team of friends playing fairly it's not that great advantage but they designed the game without an ingame chat or voice chat so, using discord or other…

Why is playing solo survivor so miserable?
I dont like to complain a lot but its really bad, i dsont even mean the teammates, some are good some are bad, its a mixed bag. im not an skilled survivor, most of my experience are with killers. but why does soloque feel bad? i mean i have more fun playing ghostface than as a survivor, and the killer role is way more…
Can a dev answer this: Do Petrified Oak offerings stack?
I always thought they did and when I try to google this answer, I get reddit results where people say they do and a few saying they don't. The reason I ask is because in a video posted by a fog whisperer (SpookyLoopz) said that they don't stack. That survivors only need to bring one. I'm hoping to get someone from BHVR to…

What could possibly go well with this perk?

Looking for the ultimate terror radius build
Hello everyone! Can someone recommend to me the ultimate terror radius build? My goal is to have as large of a terror radius as possible. I want to focus the build around Distressing. So Agitation would be okay, but Unnerving Presence not so much. I don’t care too much about perks that associate an effect with the terror…
Crashing and Freezing + Penalty
I was told to come here from the bug reporting forum so maybe you guys can help me. I play dbd on Steam/PC and have a pretty consistent flow of crashes. It usually doesn't bug me but during event updates they're during almost every match as both killer and survivor. I wouldn't mind but this has been giving me match making…

A friend of mine is having an issue with ability tests; whenever she presses her space bar, it takes 1 to 2 seconds before it works. I had the same problem, but I can't remember how I fixed it."

Everytime I go to play DBD on Steam I get a no network connection error, I play on ethernet and have tried to play without and with it, I've tried every fix I can find online along with some of my own ideas. No matter what I try it doesn't launch, but I've tried playing on the same account on Epic and Xbox and it works…

Theres is 12 search box for the 4 initial traps. What happen if we add 1 or 2 traps ? Does it become 12 search box for 5 and 6 traps ? Or each additionnal traps add a certain amount of search box ?
Steam players, have you seen cross-players with legacy cosmetics?
I play DBD thru steam and have been seeing (though still rare) some players with legacy prestige cosmetics, which wouldn't be a big deal but they have all been cross-platform. IIRC the first bloodweb update was around november-ish of 2016 and dbd wasn't on anything outside of steam until the 1st anniversary I believe.…
Ptb
When does the new ptb go live? :)
Disconnected from Host while playing custom games.
As the title says, I keep getting disconnected from games when I play custom with friends or when playing SWF. Always after the first game and when I try to rejoin, it locks up the game on my friends end and will continue to lock up and not let me play. I've tried resetting my internet, verifying game files and…
Why isn’t Trickster & Artist 4.4m/s?
I just realized the Deathslinger moves at 4.4 m/s and has 32 meter tr, and Artist & Trickster also being ranged killers (And having longer range than Slinger himself) have 32 meter tr but they run at 4.6m/s. Is this intentional and if so, why? It doesn’t really make sense?
Does anyone know if you can downgrade PS5 version of DBD back down to the PS4?
I have only played DBD on my PS5. I also have a PS4 that I want to leave at my boyfriend’s house. I would like to play DBD on my PS4 with the same account. I’ve signed into my PSN on my PS4 and downloaded DBD. I open the game and it loads, it shows the tutorials as completed but I redid them just in case. It won’t let me…
Behaviour doesn't answer me.
Hey guys, I sent a ticket to Behaviour on January 8th regarding a ban in the game but that's beside the point, and so far they haven't responded to me, is this delay really normal? because I had sent a ticket before about another matter and they responded to me within a day. Sorry for my English, I'm from Brazil.
Insufficient specification of generator adjustment at PTB.
The current generator update in the PTB stipulates that the generator must continue to make 5% repairs, so by repeatedly making 4% repairs and then letting go, the survivor can complete the repairs while the killer is deprived of the means to generate a new withdrawal event The survivor can then complete the repairs while…

Hex: Ruin exploit with new gen system?
I am not on PTB (console player) to test this myself. Can someone pls confirm. Under the new gen system is says "Each generator can only suffer 8 regression events maximum". I am guessing every time a surv lets go of gen and activates Hex: Ruin, it'll count as "1 regression event" If so, then survivors can easily let go…

I heard that a bhvr rents Amazon servers and one of the servers is located in Israel, is this true?
Anti Team Players?
As of lately since I've returned to dbd as a survivor main (3 Months break). I seem to get a lot of Teammates who leave me dying on 1st hook or refuse to heal and just shake their head to say no. Am I the only one having these Issues in solo queue or is it an issue in general?
New skin for The Artist
What do you think of the new skin for Artist with Caroline's Other Mother? At first, I looked at The Artist and saw details and a great similarity with a character from Caroline, the Other Mother, well there could be a skin for her in DbD that would be very sensational. Two of her skins: one with the clothes that the Other…
Rate my build?
Hi everyone, I have been playing Hillbilly exclusively. While he isn't as strong as Wraith in my opinion, he is still super fun to play. To me his power makes me think of a race car a little bit. I still am not good at using his power while in a chase but I am learning some things. For instance, I am learning that when I…

Burn out items and accidental DC
I was wondering, if I bring an anniversary cake, and my internet goes out (It has been doing a bit lately, so I'm waiting for it to be fixed before I continue playing) does everyone still get the bonus of my cake or do they not since my internet went out and I got disconnected? :( TIA!

Has anybody actually gotten use out of the report system?
I feel like, outside of hackers and blatant cheaters, the report system does systematically nothing to punish actually bad players in the community. Ive only ever gotten notified that my report DID something when I reported a hacking hillbilly who instadowned during the load into match and auto hooked everybody. I've…
