Survivors what's more important: Team Mates or Generators
So I've decided make a poll to ask the community in their opinion what's more important doing generators or helping a fellow survivor (i.e unhooking, healing)? For me in my opinion it's always team mates are more important then gens, as you can always come back to a generator but with less team mates getting gens done…
A look to the past. Wouldn't you love to be able to choose between new and old Freddy?
I mean, I loved old Freddy, it took brain to use him. Could it be possible that the Devs make it an option to switch between the old and new abilities for Freddy? I mean, it would sell that DLC even more right? EDIT: I'm not saying to take the new Freddy out, but to add the option of being the new or the old one at the…
Should killers be able to wave/point/t-bag/<3/visual display of affection
I'm having lots of fun being able to t-bag with GhostFace(TM) back to surviors whilst slaughtering them. I feel Leatherface is misunderstood ;) but shouldn't the killers be able to respond/point back?
Does anyone enjoy the rank resets?
We are closing in yet another rank reset. I wonder what community think about rank resets. Because for me they are just waste of time and energy. If you ask red ranks they say rank means nothing, yet you try to be in the red ranks to increase your chance of getting better teammates. But 1 week before the rank reset people…
Should Dead by Daylight become a free to play game?
Dead by Daylight is infamous for its excessive grind. The grind for perks, grind for characters, grind for cosmetics, and so on. The newest feature to grind out will be the archives, which come with an optional paid rift pass. Dead by Daylight’s grind is comparable to that of a free to play game. The example that comes…
Would you rather have licensed movie killers, their own killers or other video game killers
I see alot of requests from the community wanting movie killers but not alot of people wanting new killers or even other games killers. What would you rather have?
How many Bugs, Glitches, and Exploits do you experience every-time you play DBD?
How Does It Feel to Depip
We have all been there once or more. You enter the game as survivor or killer, cautiously optimistic the game will not end due to a player disconnecting while the match is loading and finally you arrive at the map. A few minutes later you are on a second hook, or as killer, 4 gens are completed. While on the hook you…
Place your bets on the new teaser (speculation)
In your opinion, what is the new teaser about?
Who here actually prefers the Withering Blight event over the Hallowed Blight?
I'm coming out and saying it, the Withering Blight is absolute garbage in comparison to the Hallowed Blight. On its own, for those who never played the Hallowed blight it might still be a grand time, but in comparison in sorely lags behind in multiple categories when set side by side with its predecessor. (Vote in the poll…
Which licensed killer would YOU like to see?
We all know that a BUNCH of killers will come to Dead by Daylight, and we also know that a good amount of them are licensed killers from horror movies. But there are A TON not in the game. So which one would you like to see the most?
Myers vs Ghostface
Just like my Spirit and Billy poll, I am here to settle another 'who is better killer' debate and today we have to two stalking masters Michael Myers (The Shape) VS Danny Olsen (The Ghost face). Now this is a tough one because in my opinion both are equally good. Michael is the one killer that doesn't care about the entity…
Regarding the State of The Ghost Face
Collecting the last bits of data for a follow-up post I made on Ghost Face potential changes. I would like to know your personal stance on The Ghost Face, preferably with a comment that includes: How good you think Ghostie is. Your opinion on Night Shroud's reveal mechanic. Your opinion on Night Shroud's expose mechanic.…
Does hitting a killer with head on increase you chances of being tunnelled or camped?
Is Ranking Fair? (pips)
Do you think that the amount of pips you earn is fair and is their any circumstances where you don't earn enough or vice versa?
Is spirit balanced?
Hi. I am a spirit main. I've seen some arguing in here and wanted to see peoples opinions. Some people are saying she is op, and some say she has fair counterplay. Which I personally believe. Having that said, what do you think?
Who else experiences very bad lag in lobby's?
Should Survivors Be Able To See Killer
Since Killers can see Survivors (Assuming the survivors don't have all perks unlocked), shouldn't survivors be able to see the killer.
What Maps do you want to see reworked first? And why?
Lets face it, we've all had those moments where the map either works for or against us on either side. It can get frustrating and that's mainly because some of these maps were remnants of an older Dead by Daylight, not affected by the current meta and strategies. The only way to make it more fair for both sides is to see…
Survivors: What's stopping you from playing killer?
This poll is mostly for those survivor mains who want to play killer more or dip their toe in and/or who are low rank killers. Killer can be fun. With the archives coming out, I have found new reason to try playing them again, and it gives me more incentive to try my killer dailies as well. But there seems to be many…
Would you like a DBD TellTale-style game?
I enjoyed the Walking Dead TellTale games and think the characters and atmosphere of Dead By Daylight would make for a great TellTale-style game. Obviously they would have to leave out the licensed characters, but I think it would be fun to make decisions and influence outcomes in the Fog.
Do we need dead bodies on Lerys?
Dead Bodies = Scary Scary = Good
Who kills you the most?
We all have that one specific killer we just can't survive against...
Should you gets stacks from Inner Strength?
Spirit : Unfun or Fun - That is the question
This weeks topical debate revolves around people complaining about the Legion. Simple answer - Do you enjoy playing with / against the Spirit - or not.
The Emblem System
Look I know for a fact that I am not the only one who is enraged by campers and tunnelers just trying to rank up or complete some adept challenge. I doubt there are any changes coming to the emblem system anytime soon but I for one believe that there needs to be some tweaking. I shouldn't be penalized for someone face…
The "must have" perk for survivors
You know, regardless of which survivor you play as you just NEED to have that perk in your loadout
First hook last survivor
Do you think if the last survivor hasn’t been hooked yet they should get their 3 attempts to get off the hook
Moved: Face camping gives points to survivor
This discussion has been moved.
Which side is the balance inclined for? Survivor? Killer? Balanced? Answer depending on YOUR rank
I really want to know what the community perceives about the game being inclined in favour of a specific role Please select your choice depending on your rank color
What's your stance on Borrowed Time ?
Just curious about what this forum thinks about Borrowed Time!
Which new survivor would you like the Devs to add?
Should the Dev's remove the timer that counts down in Lobbys?
dont you find it annoying when thier is an afk survivor in a lobby and because of this they may leave the game or even be afk in-game? i do because i experience this as a survivor and killer multiple times a day, when im the killer i feel obligated to not kill them because it wouldnt be fair to the rest of the team, and as…
Who the strongest killer in dbd
edit: Forgot to add The "other: write down in comments" option
Should cleansing bones have skill checks?
When we are cleaning bones (totems) should they now do it so it's a skill check totem?
Which survivor do you think is the least likely to be toxic?
As of Halloween 2019. The survivor that you voted for has the least % of players being toxic based on your observations of them. Don't count your own playstyle into this.
Buff Perk (Saboteur)
Sabotage is fun and all, but this perk on its own doesn't do much, might be better just to take ######### box. What buff would like or accept? 1. Increase base sabotage speed to 50/60/70%. 2. Increase how long hooks stay sabotaged by 20/40/60 seconds. 3. Increase sabotage speed with toolbox by 10/20/30%
Which survivor perk idea would you choose?
I've come up with a couple of perk ideas that could be pretty good additions to DBD. But I'm curious what you guys/gals think. Now if you want to add to one of these ideas or have an idea of your own, you can leave your ideas down below.
What do you guys think about monstrous shrine?
So I've seen many different opinions on this perk, the two most common being [people thinking its complete trash] and the other [it being a highly underrated perk] so I wanted to know if more people think its good or bad.
Should survivors get signals (emotes?) on hook.
One that means: Killer is camping, so do gens. Seconds one: Help, nobody is coming.
Which rank do you have the most FUN in?
Rather than discussing "best" rank, which one do you simply enjoy playing at? As of late, I've been getting into higher ranks on console and fought nothing but Hillbillies for 95% of my games, and other killers who don't exactly use skill to get kills. I've also had higher ranking survivors who just randomly stun you,…
Who wants the IT chapter?
As I understand, it is likely that IT will get it's own chapter in dbd. I want to ask you who is interested / excited for it and who isn't. Personally, I'm not a big fan of licenced chapters, and much less a fan of IT. We already got a clown, too. I really don't see the appeal, find it rather boring and secretly hope we'll…
Which one is High rank?
Can we get a consensus on this? I see high rank/low rank being used interchangably on the forums. Normally when something is described as high ranking, they mean the better ranks. But on the DBD forums, people often look at the number 1 being a low number, and call it low rank.
I Challenge You to...
That's right. I'm challenging you to do one of the following challenges below. Choose your challenge down below. I know we just got some challenges from the Archives but I want to issue a true challenge. If you want to issue you own challenge, then make some in the comments. Good luck.
Petition to keep the spinning killer in Lobbys!
So many details I haven't seen up close. The panda nurse headpiece, I had no idea how it actually looked because it's kinda fades in the customisation screen.
Should the Dev's remove the perk kindred and make it something that everyone already has?
this would help people like me who almost always run solo and get to struggle because no one is coming to save me until someone else gets injured half the time.
Passive character perks
What do you all think of this, Claudette has 2% faster healing per natural perk (the 3 starting for that survivor and if no natural perk used then it's a 0% boost) 1% gen repair per natural perk or Dwight that's 3% gen speed Dwight can get but some perks will outclass that extra gen speed, Myers evil build is 0.5% quicker…
Should the Dev's Take a Chapter to Fix the Game and not Release a new Chapter or any new content?
now that we have the rift i think we can afford to wait a chapter IMO. they could also take the time to do a bunch of map reworks that are badly needed
Which killer perk do you use often to slow gen progress?
What does waving your arms on the hook mean?
