Luck builds used to be viable but with Diminishing Returns and the eminent rework of Slippery Meat they are dumpster gravy. Luck Offerings & Up The Ante will only be used for nefarious purposes that are in no way good for DbD matches. Rather than just retiring Luck Offerings: For all Vigo's Jars of Salty Lips offerings…

Theres been mixed reviews currently about the new MMR system. Some say it works, some say its all over the place. Is it too early to judge? Should we give it more time before we make a decision so that it has a chance of leveling out? Or do you believe its flawed or doesnt work. U can also tell us any sugesstions towards…

Hello again, now the next is The Trapper, let's read it. Basekit - Increase Escape Attempt time to 12 seconds. (Was 1.8) - Increase Escape Attempt chance to 100%. (Was 16.67%) - Any survivor Attempting that Bear Traps is faced with continuous of Skill Check until attampted. And everytimes when Skill Check successful,…

Currently anticamp is just to prevent facecamping, but instead most just camp outside the anticamp range and stare at the hooked player waiting to move into facecamp range at the first sign of rescue. What if the anticamp bar wasn't for the sake of getting yourself off the hook, but for teleporting to another random hook…

In this discussion is from my mind. You can comment to me any mean. Basekit Increase the "Lunge" duration of Feral Slash to 0.8 seconds. (Was 0.5) Increase duration for Feral Frenzy to 12 seconds. (Was 11) When being stunned by any mean, Feral Frenzy won't be end and duration is still in progression. (New) Can do interrupt…

I’ll love to see more Lara Croft outfits to the game and the biker and the angel of darkness would be so cool for Lara users

I would love for this extra side outfit release for rick grimes. "The white dirty shirt, black belt, black jeans, brown dusty boots, and left arm silver watch" outfit which is apart of the sheriff outfit already. Of course it'd be interchangeable with other clothes. Or with a little more blood and grime which looks just as…

Hello, Since their release, the Invocations suffer from a very strong downside, making them detrimental to use for most games. First, the permanent broken status effect and then the fact that the killer is instantly warned when someone is downable fast in the basement, which is problematic against killers with teleport or…

As a massive fan of classic 90s horror-fantasy, I believe "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" is a franchise that belongs in the Fog. Instead of just adding models, I designed a full Chapter concept that heavily utilizes the game's existing Voiceline-System to create unique character interactions and pairs it with a highly iconic,…

As my absolute dream collab, I want to pitch a full Chapter concept for Bungie's "Destiny" universe including a lots of survivor ideas, killer ideas, map idea and charms. Destiny has some of the best cosmic horror lore in gaming history. By focusing strictly on character-rig efficiency, a visually striking map blend, and…

https://x.com/deadbydaylight/status/2103530081054331005?s=46 I seen many people discussing this topic. And I have to say this is disappointing and disrespectful to those who can’t afford healthcare to live. That’s why the Douglass charity was created to help everyone in need. And treating killer players like their horrible…

Hi there :) the recent buffs to chest perks like moment of glory and apocalyptic ingenuity have been great and made them a lot more fun and easier to use in a match, but I thought with apocalyptic ingenuity specifically, it could be a nice update to let you gain a token (up to however many) each time you open or rummage…

I've noticed how in head form and in every single M1 click triggers the full lunge distance as if I'm holding down the mouse button, it makes it very easy to react and to use perks like deadhard because krasue can't use short lunge.

As The Judgement Aura debate has been going on, we've been hearing multiple suggestions. Fix 1: (Rejected) With one of the ones coming up the most is making The Judgement not see Auras while holding her power. Although this might seem great on paper, you might forget that for many actions, people will be doing an action…

I really hope BHVR reconsiders making Pride cosmetics limited-time rewards. One thing I've always liked about DBD is that most of the Pride charms, badges, and banners are available all the time. They're not just normal cosmetics to a lot of people, they're a way for players to represent themselves. That's why I was really…

I’ve been wanting to gift friends. Can we please get an IN game gifting feature for cosmetics, auric cells, maybe even blood points. I think dead by daylight is a little behind on the updates compared to other games. If we can gift people stuff on other games, why can’t we do the same on dead by daylight? The game has been…

With characters like Lara Croft and Alan Wake proving that standalone Survivor updates and full narrative expansions are a massive success, I wanted to share two iconic franchises that would fit flawlessly into the Fog. These concepts focus heavily on fan-service plus one idea has a atmospheric map design. Here is my…

Hi, I wanted to point out that for around two years now, Dead by Daylight has been overwhelming players with notifications and promotional messages through multiple different channels. For example: In-game notifications (the red notification dot) The in-game news/inbox Email Steam news On top of that, the same topics are…

Made a post in the last couple days about a Diminishing Returns QoL change, and realized if this last month is going to be my last chance to actually put these changes out there then ######### it, there are so many QoL changes we need and don't have. The DR QoL update I mentioned: There should be an exclamation mark that pops…

Hello dear devs! Waiting for over 50 mins to have AFK killer with you feels really bad. I know this has been suggested before, and now I’m suggesting this again. Please add “Match found” button when killers are queuing in 2v8 to prevent AFK killers. League of Legends have had this mechanism since the beginning. You simply…

Good afternoon, Is the team at BHVR working on a Nintendo Switch 2 version of DBD. The console is powerful enough to handle a better version of the game, and it desperately needs it. I can't handle 15 fps and 720 much longer. Thank you

I think Dead by Daylight would benefit a lot from having a proper match history and more detailed post-match stats. After a match ends, most of the useful information disappears once you leave the results screen. It would be nice to have a Match History page showing your recent games so you could look back at how you…

I think Dead by Daylight should add earnable player titles as another form of long-term progression. Titles could be unlocked through accomplishments such as escapes, unhooks, flashlight saves, sacrifices, Killer mastery, character milestones, events, and difficult challenges. They could appear on player profiles, in…

I used chat GPT to help design the below. I spent a few hours reworking some of the perks and stuff. Let me know your thoughts! Killer: Imhotep – The Mummy Priest Role: High mobility via form-shift; relentless, time-based Curse pressure; objective tax via Canopic Jars and roaming Golden Chest; executions on death hook when…

The smell hit me first—the choking, metallic stench of dried blood mixed with damp earth. I woke up face down in the mud, my fingernails scraping against shattered glass. The air was freezing, so cold that my breath bloomed in thick, ragged white plumes. My computer screen was gone. My room was gone. I was shivering…

Not trying to be rude or anything. And I’m glad that the artists won. But me and others are tired of Clown, Unknown, Sable, etc skins winning all the time. I mean it’s all the same repetitive stuff over again. Again don’t mean to come off rude or anything. But please can we have other characters instead of them next time.

The tomes are both a time capsule of DBD's history and a hidden trove of BP, charms, badges and banners for new players to discover. Discarding years of content feels like such a waste. I understand that certain challenges have become dated in modern DBD and some might even be outright impossible as killer powers and perks…

is there any need for this nerf? It’s a useful solo q perk and also useful for new survivors learning maps. I can’t ever remember one killer complaining a survivor ran windows or FMA

Even though the forums are closing soon, this is a post I've been meaning to make for a while. New players have no way to know about Diminishing Returns, what it is or how it's affecting their builds. Even players who do know of it may not understand if it applies in certain cases, or may accidentally put on two perks…

Since full Chapters with both Killers and Survivors are the absolute pinnacle of Dead by Daylight’s lore and gameplay, I wanted to share my little wishlist for future licensed Chapters. I designed these concepts to expand the Fog with highly requested characters while keeping their mechanics perfectly manageable for the…

What I mean by this, based on the PTB, is that perks like these used toactivate regardless of how a Survivor is injured (m2 or m1), however, while I LOVE that m1s are getting attention, m2s are being pushed into the direction that m1 killers were at for a LONG time and this would just cause the same issues but for m2…

I have played DBD for a very long time (about 5 years or more) after playing the game for the last month straight I can say the game is not fun at all as a survivor. What's the point of getting more survivors if there's a killer that can counter your perks but it's not vice versa. This whole game is pay to win now; I…

My ideas for Reworking Trapper comes down to several new additions to his current power: Disabling Tools, Hunting Ground, and a New Ailment: Hobbled Bear Trap The Trapper transforms the Trial into a deadly hunting ground by placing Bear Traps for survivors to step into. Survivors caught in a Beartrap are held in place and…

We were told to wait up to 2 weeks for MMR to adjust itself back to normal… It has been 1 month and i'm still getting matched with survivors with less than 100 hours. I can't play this game in this state. I went through the trenches, forcing myself to play, even in SwF, to get my MMR back to normal so I can start getting…

LITERALLY. PLEASE. JUST DON'T DO IT. IT'S A HORRIBLE IDEA, FOR REAL. Many people have already explained why under the main post.

1. Hag bug There is a critical error in the wall-generating add-on. The duration of the Hag's wall is only 0.45 seconds. The Hag's traps do not function normally when a survivor has been hit and has an increased movement speed. 2. Movement speed stacking bug As movement speed stacks accumulate, the distance traveled when…

Since I see no point in switching to Discord or Reddit for the ideas and concepts I have in mind (where they would likely just get lost amidst nonsense spam without being seen) I’ve decided to post everything currently on my mind here before the forum closes… I always think about how we can introduce completely unique…

Due to the abundance of auras perks for killers and their frequent use, especially by killers who use them as a crutch, such as the nurse, the judge, and any killer who can injure survivors behind walls. Survivors must be able to counter all these aura perks, forcing killers to learn to look and find survivors instead of…

Its a little uncomfortable to try and play with friends who are waiting to play killer because most of the time theyre unable to leave the queue without losing their spot after waiting for so long (especially in 2v8). While you could simply let them invite survivors into the lobby i understand it might cause trouble…

Before I detail my proposed changes I do want to note, I think releasing the changes as they are and letting them mix things up for a bit would be more than fine. However, I wanted to make a list of how I would adjust the ones I think will end up being too weak or problematic, and see how they'll stack up once things have…

Ghost Face Buff Proposal I’d like to suggest a small buff that would make his stealth more consistent without giving him extra chase power. Remove the ability for downed and hooked Survivors to reveal him. They are already out of active play and shouldn’t be able to remove Night Shroud. Increase the reveal time from 1.5 to…

I've come across killers with high ping and its pretty impossible to loop. loops require lots of reaction time when killers double back. when killers have high ping, they hit u from really far away. making it seem pretty unfair. add a system that matches ur ping with the killer. i always end up having 40 ping while killers…

I really liked how they took some the perks that weren’t used or some that needed buffs or nerfs and made them more viable If the devs are listening to this, I hope I do more perk changes like this maybe in a smaller scale like 5-10 perks and maybe now u can focus perks that aren’t affected by diminishing returns and buff…

Let me explain, so, since 2v8 has 2 killers and 8 survivors, and only 8 generators needed to be done, on maps that are 2-3times the Size as 1v4 maps, what made it a good idea to keep pyramid heads trail segment at 100, which is good for 1v4 modes but absolutely non-existent for 2v8? Pyramid heads trails constantly…

On the post-match screen. Make it identical to the message for a 4K and not ambiguous. Something like "You Won!" or "You are Victorious!" and not Ruthless/Merciless Killer. The only reason I suggest this is because I believe it would improve match experiences by having less killers choose to slug for the 4K, which is just…

While holding a depleted Toolbox, Scavenger activates: Succeeding at Great Repairing Skill Checks grants 1 Token, up to a maximum of 5 Tokens. Reaching the maximum number of Tokens automatically consumes them and fully recharges the Toolbox. Recharging a Toolbox will reduce your Repair speed by -50 % for 40/35/30 seconds.…

With bhvr releasing more standalone Killer chapters lately, I wanted to share my personal wishlist for future standalone Chapters that don't need a Survivor. All of these characters have massive horror potential, frequently appear in official surveys, and would bring incredible hype to the Fog. And as a fan of both metal…

I am a fan of diverse horror and pop culture, and I have an idea for a collection of nine unique Legendary or Bloody crossover skins specifically tailored to BHVR's original killers, featuring their own unique Voicelines and custom Mori animations to making them completely safe for the engine by utilizing existing…

Since I see no point in switching to Discord or Reddit for the ideas and concepts I have in mind (where they would likely just get lost amidst nonsense spam without being seen) I’ve decided to post everything currently on my mind here before the forum closes. I’m in favor of consoles getting in-game chat so console players…

The Dredge is honestly one of my most favorite killers in Dead by Daylight but sadly they can be kind of weak when they get a map that has bad locker RNG and among other things so here are some changes for the Dredge! Dredge's teleport is now under an individual token system with each token having their own separate…
