Solo Queue: Do you prefer aggressive or immersed teammates
As the title says, this is mainly to all my solo queue teammates out there, but feel free to answer even if you don't play solo queue. I personally have more fun when I play aggressively and feel like more gens get done but I want to see what the preferences are amongst my teammates. Also, by immersed, I mean they hide…
Which "the game" is better?
The game has been reworked, it has updated graphics, and a little areas changed. So... from the point of view of balance, considering that some killers can use their powers a little more, there are more safe pallets etc. Which one do you think it's better?
Would Passives work in DBD
Passives (Perks) are ability's that some games devs use to give a slight buff to a character and show off there personality's as well , some are too strong but some are weak but they all have one stimulatory they cant be activated by the player but are passive though out the game (I'm focusing on survivors for now) would…

Survivor Perk Tier List: Adrenaline
You are fuelled by unexpected energy when on the verge of escape.When the Exit Gates are powered, instantly heal one Health State and sprint at 150 % of your normal Running speed for 5 seconds. Adrenaline is on hold if you are disabled at the moment it triggers and will instead activate upon being freed. If playing against…
Survivor Perk Tier List: Ace in the Hole
Lady Luck always seems to be throwing something good your way. When retrieving an Item from a Chest, there is a chance an Add-on will be attached to it. 100 % chance for an Add-on of Very Rare Rarity or lower. 10/25/50 % chance for a second Add-on of Uncommon Rarity or lower. Ace in the Hole allows you to keep any Add-ons…
New David or old David?
Which version of David do you guys like better from the original or reworked version
Do you want HD texture pack ?
This game is so great. Every update is better. But in 5 years of gaming, things becoming old. I think a little updrage with HD texture pack will be a great idea. For exemple, generators are little weird now. Thank you all, and remember, always look back :)
How do you feel about Kate Denson's rework?

What Tier is the new Trickster?
Blight Map Ideas
Since we missed out on a map for the Descend Beyond chapter, here's a few ideas for maps that we could receive later on for the Blight. The Alchemists' Shack - The Shack that the Alchemist used to test his serums. Shown in the Hallowed Blight Animatics. The Opium Den - The location where Talbot was contained and drugged…
Do you know the RPD layout by playing RE, or have you played that game at all?
Many people complain that the RPD is confusing and very bad, so I want to see how many actually know the layout from playing RE.
Should they increase the distance of hooks or take 1 out from each map?
Now we’ve seen the reworks, who’s the prettiest?
Some have been kinder to others, I’m now glad the only Scandinavian is actually pretty. My personal preference would be Nea/Jill.
Worst killer in the game?
Yeah, in my opinion Legion which killer is countered by the simple survivors basics as much as Legion spread out to avoid snowball, and remain injured to focus on gens. Also, no ability in chase, Add-ons and perks are in play.
how many cakes to do plan to get on your main killer/survivor?
I personally plan to stop after 100 cakes on trickter and then spend BP on other killers, but what about you?
Add a setting to disable SWF? (Killer)
Hello everyone, What would you think if this setting was added for killers? Allow Swf? Yes, if you select this setting you will be matched with a swf team. or No, if you select this setting you will get a match with only solo players.
Do you consider perk Iron Will a meta perk?
Just from your game experience, yes or no
Help me decide who to get all perks on next! (Survivor)
Ok, so I've been working on getting all perks on my survivors during the event since now's the time to get BP when people are working together to stack offerings (and to gather offerings/items from the web). I have Steve, Leon, Feng, and Jane all fully complete. I'm leaning towards working on non-licensed ones right now…
How Does Everyone Feel About An Elvira Mistress Of The Dark Chapter?
Would the community welcome the Hostess with the most as a survivor?
Which Killers are the most fun to play against? Finals
I made 4 polls early last month showcasing all the killers that were current at the time and asking this question. For the final poll using all of these results, I am not including Nemesis, because at the time of polling he hadn't released yet. So, which of these four do you have the most fun playing against when you're a…
Should Spirit have an indication of when she's phasing?
Yeah, she should. This will eliminate the no skill standstill mind game. That creates unfair and unhealthy gameplay with no meaningful interactions behind. And it won't butcher her you'll know she's phasing but you won't know where she's phasing. My idea she'll have a red glow from those glass shards when she's phasing.…
Which Chapter Concept would you like me to make?
Okay, this time without screwing things up because of the Forum's faulty system, I would like to ask you of something to vote for. It's which of these chapter concepts do you think I should make in the creative forums. Like I did with the Final Fantasy chapter, I want to try my hand at a unique concept and approach to…
Should we change balance on the Raccon City police station?
Raccon City police station the biggest map in dbd with 3 floors and on my opinion this map need changes.I think this map need be smaller and need to make passages wider.Guys,please explain in comments why you want or do not want change this map.
How to fix most toxic problems players have Survivor/Killer
Hello, first of all I am quite new to the game, but I am in touch with community and while playing the game I saw there are several things that are unfair/dumb that people complain about as well as a compilation of random ideas I heard. I am a main Killer, BUT I also play survivor to get those juice thick BP from the…
Should Licensed Content get the Crowns?
Ah, the fifth year anniversary. And the crowns. Ooh, maybe I would be able to wear them on my favorite Killer, Pyramid Head or my favorite Survivors Cheryl or Leon. But what's this? I can only equip them on the characters original to Dead by Daylight? Well then, what a way to celebrate the fifth year anniversary when I'm…
Would you like a Non-Human Survivor in the Game?
Disclaimer: By non-human I mean a character that obviously isn't human but shares some human physiology and traits, an alien or just another general creature that isn't capable of killing. The thing about Dead by Daylight is that it has a whole host of things to pull from, or at least, the Entity has a whole host of things…
There should be an option to disable certain teachables from appearing in bloodwebs
I think it would be really useful if you could "untick" the checkbox that is available when you look at a character's unlocked teachables by their backstory and it stops showing in other's bloodwebs.
hair physics
did you like hair physics before bhvr removed them
How likely do we think a chapter for "The Shining" is?
Since I've started to play dbd, I thought that a chapter for Stanley Kubrick's "The Shining" based off of the Stephen King book would be a fantastic chapter to add into the game. With the release of the sequel movie "Doctor Sleep" a few years ago, I was hoping that maybe that would bring some spark to bring it to dbd but…
What TV series licenses would you like to see in Dead by Daylight?
You see, days ago I did the one for Slashers 80's Movies having the IT license as the winner, the other for Videogames who is between FNAF, Outlast, and Amnesia, now I wanted to do the series.
Add a fourth charm slot for crowns
I would love if a fourth charm slot (that isn’t actually for charms) could be added. That would allow us more customization options because it wouldn’t force us to use the default head/hair/mask. In theory, that could also allow us to use it on licensed characters since it technically isn’t altering the character itself.…

Would you like to see a chapter based off the horror game series F.E.A.R.?

Limited selection 5th perk slot
Would a 5th perk slot that is dependent on player usage rates be a good idea? Pros Perks that can be used rotate as time passes Shakes up the metagame Encourages usage of more niche or bad perks Could give devs more data on each perks survival rates Encourages at least some adaptation instead of one build. Cons Some perks…
How much have you Leveled up so far,During the Anniversary

Forums, Which Legion would you Prefer?
You've got two choices to make here; which Legion would you rather prefer for this game over the other? Old Legion (Feral Frenzy + Deep Wound) This version of Legion is the same Legion we currently have, with no changes outside of a minor tweak or two to the fatigue of Feral Frenzy or his movement speed. If you still think…

Which killer is both fun to play against and play with(if any)?
I’m semi new to the game and been playing casually for around 1.5 months at usually around rank 12 and wanted to hear which unpopular(as in how often they are played) killer is fun for both sides. Please explain why too, thanks for your time.
Night king as new killer
Im wondering what everyone thinks about the Night king from game of thrones as new killer. I’m not sure if this has been said I did a quick search and didn’t see it but what do y’all think?

Do DH & NOED need to be changed?
Yeah, in my opinion both since there are both second chance perks that can cover the user's mistakes. But, what do you think
Should nemesis's daily be changed?
Nemesis's daily is currently the only daily that can't physically be completed in one game. While other killers daily's may be more difficult they're able to be completed in a single game. With nemesis's it required the player to reach mutation 3, 4 times. so because mutations never go down it means you at minimum are…
