What kind of OG Killer would you like to see in Dbd?
Edit: Made a mistake in Poll 8. It says "Like in Poll 6, he could turn into a Crow", I was previously going to put "SKIN WALKER" but I did Elemental Killer instead. We can make that a bonus option. Bonus: Skin Walker - He could disguise himself as a Crow, flying from place to place.
Are game filters cheating/unfair advantage?
Do you think that nvidia game filters and the like are considered "cheats" or an unfair advantage?
Do you agree with this statement?
The more skilled player in the match wins on average. I ask this because I think there are a significant amount of factors in DBD that lead to a person on either side winning when they didn't actually play more skillful. Essentially things that can get you "wins" that you didn't really earn.
Do people want crosshairs as an ingame option
I was wondering what people think of crosshairs in this game since I wanna get back to huntress and learn how to use flashlights on console. I feel like having a crosshair would make it easier to aim and I don't see it as something that would mess with the balance of the game
What Survivor Legendary Set would you like to see?
Survivor Perk Idea
An idea popped into my head for a new survivor Perk and wanted to see what the community thinks about it: "Heavy Handed" - a successful pallet stun on a killer deafens them for a short period of time, with maybe a blur effect added to their screen.
What kind of killer ideas and power would you like to see?
Does Freddy Krueger need another rework or just QoL changes?
Is another rework needed or just updates
PC Billy mains, which do you use to turn?
How many players are now unable to start the game?
The new update made my game crash on startup. I cannot play anymore and a bug report with the same issue was declined due to apparently CPUs being below the minimum requirements, despite them running the game before. I want to know if anyone else, especially from LatAm (Latin America) is affected by this, and how we could…
AFTER GAME VIDEO!!!!!
Ive been thinking about this for a while now, but would you guys like a thing after a match where it shows a video of how everyone played. It would be like the game EVOLVE where the survivors would be different color blips on the map and the killer as it's own color. The map would show the paths everyone took through the…
Who do you think the Survivor for the Five Nights At Freddy's chapter should be, if THIS year?
Which Resident Evil Character would you like to see as a Legendary Set in Dbd?
I wouldn't mind if they did third, or fourth Resident Evil chapter; I love the franchise. This is just a matter of "What if?" incase things like Lore Lady-D don't work out. I'd be happy if she was the third, and perhaps final Killer, concluding it with the Winters Arc, perhaps adding in Ethan (or Rose) along with Re4…
Should Behaviour make a Captain Jack Sparrow skin/survivor with his own special running animation?
Running animation I was thinking of was when he was running from the tribe in Dead Man’s Chest
Event Killers: Getting Genrushed or Fun?
Fellow killers, are the survivors you're facing just genrushing you every game, or are they actually enjoy the event more?
Revert Skull Merchant?
No generator ADD ONS, just her old version, with maybe 5 drones.
If Trickster were to have his own map someday, what would it be?
I'm going to be honest with you... I don't think we'll ever get that Trickster map, but that DOESN'T stop me from wanting to endorse Bhvr to add it in, so that's why I made this Poll, that new map we just got, Greenville... Is pretty lit. It gives off an 80s vibe with the right amount of dark and gritty that I've been…
Which of the previous Survivors do you think needs voice lines the most?
For the last few chapters, including the current one, 'All Things Wicked', Survivors have been given pre-game voice lines, including the newest Survivor, Sable Ward. "I don't like voice lines", well say if we had the option to cut them off, what then? If there's anything I'd like to see, one of those would definitely be...…
Win Streaks
People typically gauge their win streaks by kills. For the sake of trying to play fairly would you consider it a win for the killer if he got 7 or 8 hooks regardless of kills since that’s typically a harder achievement since you kept them all alive? I personally view 7 hooks as a win and equivalent to 3 kills as to me…
Are Stealth Killers Viable?
I wanna gauge the thoughts of the community on this, do you think stealth killers are currently viable? If not, tell us why you think so.
If 'Alone In The Dark' came to Dbd, who would you pay as?
While a bit niche, Alone In The Dark was THE survival horror game that inspired Resident Evil. (Or was it the other way around?) Regardless, it is a staple in the survival horror genre, and I think, with the potential success of the reboot, it could have great potential of coming into the game. Haven't played the reboot…
How do you feel about the Devs removing the MMR?
Since we still have uneven matchups with players either way over skilled or cheaters I feel having MMR is pointless. This is my opinion and would like to know what others think.
Should bhvr increase map spawn rates temporarily for reworked maps and new maps?
Thoughts on Nemesis having a Mr. X skin from RE2?
Would the skin work in the game, or do you think it would be too difficult considering Nemesis's tentacle power?
What do you think of the new Blood Moon event so far?
Only a day has passed since Dead By Daylight's new event, 'BLOOD MOON', has released. What are your thoughts? So far, I think it's... meh. Cosmetics look cool though, I'll give them that. Maybe after the next chapter we'll get that 5v5 event! Time will tell.
Who do you think the Anniversary Killer/Chapter will be?
These are most, if not all of the major licenses that would be worth grabbing, besides maybe Dead Space since it came out last year, and Alan Wake came out only a few months ago. Come to think of it, American Horror Story would also be a good option, but I'm not sure who'd the killer be; probably would work more as a…
What tier is the new Pig?
Still might be too early to tell but just for fun.
Cosmetics should align with a character's lore?
It seems odd to me to see a medieval character in trendy clothes (excluding event items), but that's just my perspective. What are your thoughts?
killer duo preference
just because there have been multiple polls like this doesnt mean i cant do one too
Who are you and what would you do in a horror?
So you are in a horror movie, or scenerio.....................what would you do and which one are you?
Which types of perks do you prefer? (part 2 )
Just in terms of fun, which type of perks do you enjoy using the most?
Is the game killer sided, or survivor sided?
Let me know why you picked your answer and how you think the game can balance both sides.
Which of these Klownz would you play as?
The Unknown cosmetics possibilities
Assuming that the killer is more than just an urban legend and it's been around for a long time, which cosmetics seems fitting for the character?
Hardest skill to learn
Which of these is the hardest to master as a survivor
Which Survivor from THE WALKING DEAD would you play as?
Say if, in a world, Bhvr got the rights from Robert Kirkman himself. That being the franchise itself, if that were possible. Sort of like how they obtained the Ringu license. Edit: I accidentally put Carol Peletier twice, I meant to put Carl Grimes in the OTHERS Poll. Sorry for the confusion. 😅
What other Heavy Metal band would you like to see in Dbd?
So far, the IRON MAIDEN content has been well received, especially that Dredge set; and soon. we'll be seeing that SLIPKNOT collab, which I can only assume is different masks that the band members wore, along with some maybe some Slipknot t-shirts for all the OG Survivors, or maybe the Survivors also get masks; fingers…
Pig Changes
Do you feel Pig is actually stronger now post PTB? They significantly buffed aspects of her that were so bad that even with these significant changes they're still bad, but in exchange nerfed her RBT, which were the actual strong part of her kit by removing box auras. This is a significant nerf. Her ambush is still largely…
Resident Evil x DBD next phase
As a Resident Evil fan, what would be the best option for the next phase of this collab? P.S. I took the liberty of adding "Collab with other capcom games" because I'm dying for a Mega Man/Singularity skin. I grew up playing that game and I have fond memories of it.
If they added more 'Texas Chainsaw Massacre' Content, what BUNDLES would you wish to see first?
With the success of the new Texas Chainsaw Game, I think BHVR ought to start adding more content for Leatherface. Rule 1, I'm counting only the first and second movies as canon possibilities, none of the other "Sequels" or any of the "Prequels". Rule 2, it can't be Johnny, Sissy, or Black Nancy, and maybe not any of the…
How does a 2K feel to you when playing Killer?
When playing as the Killer and you get a 2K specifically, how does it feel? Does a 2K feel satisfying, unsatisfying, or are you indifferent? This of course doesn’t capture the nuance of some 2Ks feeling good, while others feel bad. But as a general whole, how does a 2K feel when playing as the Killer?
Which licensed chapter would you like to see in dbd?
May 2024 isn't far away: What do you think the upcoming 8th Anniversary Chapter will be?
It's far too soon to start debating now, I'm aware, I'm just doing this for poops and giggles.
Gen Kick Regression Perks
Now that we’ve had the anti 3 gen mechanics implemented to prevent long stalled 3 gen games do you still feel the nerfs to those perks are necessary? I feel like even if those gen kick perks were reverted to their old strong state they would be fine now that they can no longer hold a game hostage with limited kicks. We…
If Bhvr decided to make an "ALL-KILL" (Trickster) Movie/TV Series, what would you rather it'd be?
This is a follow-up to a previous Poll I made asking which Killer would you like to see their own movie/tv series, once Bhvr achieves finishing that long awaited Dead By Daylight movie. Also, I THINK Nicolas Cage is going to play Ace, but that's just me, unless they're gonna go lore accurate and add Talbot Grimes (Blight)…
If Leprechaun came to Dbd, who do you think should be the Survivor(s)?
They could easily pull an "Alan Wake" and throw in Leprechaun. They got Chucky, what's stopping them? And any of these characters could make for good Legendaries considering they're all still owned by Lions Gate, or at least I think they are. According to Screenrant, there's also another reboot in the works, time can only…
Do you think 'Lights Out' should come back?
As much as I though Bhvr started out with the easiest mode to make possible, I thought it was pretty cool, brought back a bit of the horror aspect. Though personally, if they do bring it back, I think they should just make it a Customs feature. The reason why I think it'd work better in Customs, this could be a hot take,…
Killer need to spend more bloodpoints for playing a specific build
Switching to Killer told me one. It is more expensive to maintain. Beside Medkits I bring rarely strong addons/items as Survivor and save the most for challenges.
Which OG Killers do you think should have their OWN movies/TV shows?
If you wish to choose a different killer, feel free to specify it in the comments.
