Should cross-progression be linked to the forums?
So right now we've got a (surprisingly) functional crossplay between multiple platforms, that likely I'm sure will continue to be refined and get even better than it already is. The next thing people are looking toward is Cross-Progression so that they can not only port their progress but also their items, cosmetics, etc.…

Should I Use Calm Spirit?
So between infectious fright, dragon's grip, and a bunch of other killer perks, I've had about five consecutive matches where I could have stayed hidden from the killer if I hadn't screamed. It's not that I mind the chase (I like the chases in fact) buti t seems like Calm Spirit is just becoming more and more of an…

Legion changes
would you be happy if the changes for the legion were these? Feral Frenzy - For each attack on a survirvor NOT in deep wound state, feral frenzy will have a reduced cooldown of one second for each hit. Feral Frenzy - After the fourth hit in a row in a survivor, legion speed would reduce to 4.2 for 3 seconds. Feral Frenzy -…
Should Hatch Be Removed?
With the ability to close the hatch, survivors have now started to just camp doors and just let the killer close it. Sluggin will still be a thing with or without a hatch since the doors would only be powered once the last survivor is dead. To me, hatch seems like an unnecessary feature now but I would like to know your…
HOW EXCITED WOULD YOU BE FOR THIS KILLER/CHAPTER: Marta - Outlast 2
I was participating in another poll when I thought of another great killer I would love to see. Marta would be a great addition to the killers because: A) Both her appearance and her personality fit with the aesthetic of dbd. B) She comes from a well-known and loved horror franchise. C) There are some amazing ideas for a…

Crossplay use by Platform
Inspired by a recent poll about crossplay status based on roles, I am interested in seeing how crossplay is being used based on platform. For the purposes of this poll, please vote based on either role. For example, if you have it enabled for survivor, but not killer, then still vote "enabled". Only vote "disabled" if you…
Should Demogorgon's Portals have the same passive Killer Instinct effect as Pyramid Head?
Just a question. I'm curious of how the community would feel if Demo's portals automatically triggered KI when survivors walked past, just like PH's trails of torment. Without Demo Channeling the Abyss. Not for too long of course, so as to not continuously inform Demo if Survivors are sealing it. What do you guys think?
Do You Want Stats Back?
I personally do, but let's see if there's a big enough demand for them. (Although polls usually don't get many votes anyway. 😜) You know the stats: Sometimes the devs released statistics of the game, like how every Killer rank did at killing over the course of a month, or the pick rate of Perks, showing the most & least…

Healing in the basement after being unhooked
Question for survivors. After you are unhooked from the basement, do you let the survivor who saved you heal you/heal yourself in the basement or you run right away from the basement and heal somewhere else? I usually just run out of the basement and heal after, but just had a match where the survivor that was saved…
What do you think about the Blight?
I personally really like him and I think he's balanced, but I want to hear opinions from other people!
Should pig recover unactivated bear traps when survivors free themselves?
Title. Most of the pigs power is (arguably) meant to come from the traps that the pig can use on survivors. The problem is, because of RNG and how surprisingly easy it is to take a trap off, they are ineffective most of the time. I'm curious what you guys think about letting the pig recover unactivated traps if the…
what are some good perks to use on legion
right now I'm using discordance, iron maiden, bbq and chili and bamboozle and its working pretty well for me ive won every match so far even with no addons although I know legion is really good so it could just be that its just easy to win with but yeah and no I'm not a legion main just using him for for now while I get bp…

Pumpkinhead (1988 Film) as a killer, and Lance Henriksen possibly as a survivor
So I watched Pumpkinhead on Prime the other day and I absolutely love Pumpkinhead's design and Lance Henriksen in general. The film is about a man (Henriksen) summoning Pumpkinhead to kill the teens who murdered his kid accidentally. Google Pumpkinhead. He's reminiscent of Alien's Xenomorph, but still very creepy and huge…
Killers, what perks you use to counter gen rush ?
So far I been using Pop and Corrupt and debating if its worth the time to get Ruin and Undying or should I just go for something new entirely. 🤔
Badham Preschool needs changes
Just finished a few matches on the Badham Preschool maps and they are ATROCIOUS to play on. Sure, they LOOK aesthetically better, but they bring more problems to the table (the most notable being lag and frame rate drops). Not only does the amount of pallets seem unchanged, but now there are too many breakable doors that…
How long would you wait....
if the DEVs did the right thing and focused all their resources into optimisation and eliminating bugs? This would of course delay future content. So how many chapters would you be willing to skip for DBD to be reasonably optimised and for the most part free of bugs? posted in off-topic bc I´m unable to post it in general…
Two Killers?
I was thinking how lonely it must be for a killer when survivors can work together, but what if there was a big enough map for 2 killers and 8 survivors. They would have to do about 7 or 8 generators with three exits but still 1 hatchet. Ps please vote then push vote up if you like
What do you think the new killer is?
