Where's this maps own map offering?
This map has been out for awhile, and didn't & still doesn't have a map offering, although I may understand why, due to it having its own matchmaking specifically for that map itself but the fnaf map doesn't have an offering which, as far as I'm aware is the first time this has happened and curious as to why

Swamp simply must be killswitched until rework
Both Swamp maps are unacceptable, they have always been in an unacceptable state. They are abusable by both sides, they make some killers like Pinhead or Artist or Houndmaster borderline unplayable, and on the other hand they have the most absurd 3 gen potential in the game. They are too big, the structures are too strong,…

Why did that hurt my feelings so much? : ( How do I delete a post?
If I knew I was going to be attacked like this over a post then I would have set my profile to private to begin with. Honestly didn't know that was a option. I don't even know how to delete that post either. It's fine. I feel I'm already the Villain here. If I can't delete it how do I close my account?

The state of servers, ping, hit validation, and everything in between... and how to fix it!
First of all, PLEASE upvote this if you are even remotely impacted by the things I mention below, we need visibility on this issue! As a survivor, currently this game is unplayable. I will outline the problem and all straightforward solutions in this post. My perspective exists as a game developer myself, a person with a…

Aura colors and accessibility
TLDR at the bottom. Every trial has the same basic mechanics. Pallets, vaults, generators, hooks, terror radius, etc. And in the almost 9 years DBD has been released, very few of these have options to make it more player accessible. A toggle to hold or only touch gens, heals, totems, etc. Was great! And when the option…

Desync is back and likely in a different way than the 8.3.1 patch
This entire thread in the dbd subreddit AMA points out something went very wrong recently. People are noticing, which means things are in really bad shape. Somewhere between the FNAF chapter and the masquerade event it came back. Hits from extra far, through every window and pallet, and even when the game is at ultra…

New CLASSIC DBD Event.
It's been happening for so long now that my list of friends I've made on DBD keeps getting quieter because they all leave. They leave because of the bad changes in DBD. One thing that keeps getting brought up is how much we all miss the old days. The CLASSIC days where keys would open hatch before end game, large maps,…

Suggestion
Balance Suggestion: Prevent Speed Perks from Stacking My suggestion is simple but could solve many current survivor meta issues: Instead of nerfing individual perks like Made for This, why not prevent speed-increasing perks from stacking? 🧠 How it would work: The game allows only 1 active speed buff at a time. If multiple…

"NEW SURVIVOR ITEM: FOG VIAL" should be for beginners only.
Its too strong in now live server. surviver's plays is very well, Particularly chasing. Now, the UI display allows any survivor to take the best action at any given time. Therefore, the killer's chances of winning depend on how quickly he can end the chase. However, FOG VIAL has too great an effect on special attacks that…

healing speed feels too fast and my suggestion for it
just buff anti heal perks, and also buff the mangled and hemorrhage status effects Thats it, what do u think?

Remove Bond!
Lately all toxic players use bond. They use it to rat out all the other teammates to save themselves. Most don't even do anything but hide the entire time then once killer finds them they run straight to the others even though the others are the ones doing the objectives. I'm really tired of these little children that…

Early Discussion About Skull Merchant: One Step Forward, Two Steps Back, And Her Identity
Greetings, friends of the Fog! I hope this thread finds you doing well. As you may know or may not know, the Skull Merchant recently surpassed Freddy and became my favorite killer in Dead By Daylight. I am having more fun with her than I did with Old Freddy, and considering how much I loved Old Freddy, that is saying…

Crows (match progression changes) are awful.
I love having some 180 ping subhuman carry around my teammate (that has gone afk to avoid the dc penalty) in order to avoid allowing them to bleed out, so that they may patrol the gens until I INEVITABLY have to complete gen progress to prevent crows from accumulating. 2 players left on 3 gens, and I am expected not to…

Yeah, I’m no longer playing killer
literally any killer match I’ve been playing recently has been nothing but miserable three gens get popped before I get one hook, I keep losing all of my games, I run Meta, non meta and every single game just ends up being a four to three man out. Unless I have an actual good reason to, I’m not playing the killer role…

Head On Suggestion - QOL.
The person carrying the perk Head On - the locker will now be highlighted in Yellow for all survivors. I think this would be really cool because you can get more stuns on the killer to help out other survivors in chase. You have no way to communicate this in SOLOQ, so this would fix that. :)
-
Scavenger doesn't feel right.
I think the 50% repair penalty should be reduced to 30% OR the 30 seconds bumped down to 20? One or the other. The penalties for using this perk comes at a high price.

p100 rewards
From recent reddit QnA we know what kind of p100 rewards we will have in future, but! What if make it a bit more interesting? In game we have killers who can change your appearence by leaving some kind of substence on u, so… P100 reward should give u new type of cosmetic "effects" or "paint" that would work like Nemesis…

New killer: Horace Pinker from Shocker
He could body hop survivors and sow a nice bit of chaos amongst survivors before manifesting and going in for the kill. Other killer suggestions would be The Corinthian from Sandman, Beta or Negan from Walking Dead, Alex Mercer from Prototype (a James Heller legendary skin aswell, naturally), maybe Pelonquin from…
-
Ozzy Cosmetic(s)
Title says it all. With his passing, I feel it's only right that the prince of darkness has his place in the fog. Whether it's simply shirts for survivors like the Iron Maiden ones, or giving him his own legendary skin (Jeff would obviously be most fitting to get it) his legacy deserves to be in dead by daylight.
-
QOL improvements I would like for Springtrap
these are just suggestions that I think would make the animatronic a lot smoother to play while also trying to make him fair on both sides (keyword being try) reduce the time it takes to retrieve the axe from the environment to 5 seconds (was 7) Increase the grab range to 4 meters (was 3) Increase grab detection to 48°…

Do you guys think you could do an event like this?
Map or maps where parts of the layout change during a match. Lore wise, you could say it's places in the fog where The Entity's control is weakest so everyone's thoughts keep influencing the map. Then there's a sound to let you know the shift is about to happen. They would have to program a 'deadzone' around the players,…

skull merchant doesnt need a rework
this is exactly what it says. she doesn't need a rework. she needs her current kit buffed back into viability. the fans of her (me included) aren't playing her because she's strong or effective. we are playing her because we enjoy her playstyle and her power. a rework now after this long of us playing her like this is just…

The THING is?
The thing would be pretty cool as a killer if we could get the licensing hear me out they could have an ability that allows them to mimic one of the players and could hide in vents around the map go vent to vent, you could also try going for an among us imposter skin and give survivors could get one skin as the crewmate…

Event Ideas: Classics
I had a thought (shut up) about a potential idea for an event. Something akin to a return to classic DbD. Obviously not literally,but basically a limited mode where the only available killers and survivors are from the original line-up. Either the original PC version line-up or up through what was available when the game…

Map Offerings
There wasn't an issue with map offerings and yet there was a change to it. I'm trying to play scratched mirror Myers and i've used around 7 offerings with no survivors trying to change the map and it's to no avail. Please stop sucking the fun out of the game by making unnecessary changes and revert the map offerings back…

The pros and cons of seeing other survivors perks in the lobby
I have mixed feelings about the possibility of seeing other people's perks in the loading lobby. On the one hand, I'm always looking for ways to be a better teammate. And knowing what other play styles other people are going to be using would help me to better understand them in the match. It would also give me a better…

[SUGGESTION] Rift UI Changes
I like the new UI with the Rift and he new Quest system but I do have one minor grievance. The Quest/Rift rewards block the page arrow for the Rift. If I want to change the page, I have to sit on this page and press the right arrow repeatedly. If you could add a tiny X instead of the arrow so we can just skip the animation…

Would a permanent 1v1 gamemode be accepted by the community?
Face front it seems like it wouldn't change anything, if you don't like it you could just not play it, but then again, the queues are already pretty bad, a permanent gamemode could compromise it even more, so what would the majority think about this?

DBD official stats page suggestion
I don't know if BHVR would be willing to share this data for one reason or another but I would LOVE to know my escape and kill rates on certain maps. That would be very illuminating for me to know what my best maps are and my worst maps.

Chapter Idea
Not sure if this'll go anywhere but I thought of an idea for an original chapter and I couldn't not submit it somewhere. There is one survivor and one killer. The survivor is a cultist (similar to Taurie), and the perks are all based around the worshipping of the entity. The killer is another cultist who, after seeing the…

Suggestion for a original chapter i thought of for a while
Alright first off please be respectful even if you hate it (i just know you will). So my thinking was how could we implement and represent more niche themes and niche fandoms into dbd so i came up with a chapter that has a strong fantasy/darkfantasy and also anthromorph character theme because since we got furry skins for…

Existing maps need to be smaller
About 70% of the maps are big or down right huge, making them quite a hassle traverse for both sides. Making the maps smaller would over all be a healthier as it encourages interactions with The Killer and Survivors

It's TIME for 5 Perk Builds!
Welcome my build enthusiasts! As you may know, many people, maybe including yourself have fallen in love with this game and their ability to create their own perk builds to have fun with, which is absolutely great! As DBD has grown, new perk ideas have been added and some of the perks have become increasingly niche, which…

Dracula doesn't need a full addon pass, but his two iris and at least one purple needs serious work.
I think that Dracula has to have one of the worst set of two iri addons in the entire game (after PH gets his addons reworked). The good thing is that he doesnt need a "Pyramid Head level" addon pass, as most of them are pretty decent, but his two iridescent addons (Alucard Shield and Vlad's Ring) are absolutely terrible.…
-
Servers
Please do something with the servers (I live in Blagoveshchensk, across the river from China), it's impossible to play DBD as a maniac against Chinese survivors. Please, if possible, configure the servers so that it's at least possible to play.

Perk buff ideas (very, very long)
If I would be dev and in charge of buffing perks, that would be the result. I tried to change the perks in a way that I would want to start using them. Killer Alien instinct All other survivors become oblivious for 30 seconds after hooking someone. (New) Batteries included The haste you get is based on how much progress…

Would making tenacity and deerstalker basekit be balanced? (when downed by the killer)
I was thinking of it as a way to nerf extreme slugging but at the same time keep the killers ability to slug for pressure still possible, you could even make the time to fully recover a bit longer when downed BY the KILLER (so plot twist doesnt get nerfed unnecessarily). Idk, would it be balanced or maybe too busted on the…

Can you fix the Wesker bug?
There is an issue where when Wesker grabs me as survivor, the camera starts wobbling. I can't run straight (holding up) after being grabbed with Wesker's power. It happened to me a lot of times. I am sure it happens to other players as well. Just wondering if this Is a known bug to behaviour. If so, when will it get fixed?…

Lower the speed of The Animatronic to 4M/S or 3.8M/S
Respectfully, a 40 year old, broken down, 7 feet tall Animatronic made of medal shouldn't be able to walk the same speed as The Huntress, a killer 2x smaller.

Let me abandon when the killer is slugging for the 4k.
PLEASE. I still don't know why this isn't a scenario. I just had a match I bled out on the floor because Vecna really wanted the 4k and Ada was hiding the whole time. Add something to make the survivor on the floor bleed out faster or just add the abandon option. It's so annoying and just want to go next instead of waiting…

A way to get the Legacy Character Portrait on characters who previously did not have it?
What I'm talking about is the red markings on character portraits here: I think it would be nice if there could be a way to get this portrait on characters that previously did not have it, and my idea for it is that it would involve getting said character to P100. Once you get them to P100, you unlock an option in the…

Balance killers with perk tiers
Haywire, perk nerfed to its unusable state because of one killer. Singularity Situational Awerness, Perk nerfed because of 1 killer, Nurse Undone, perk intentionaly bad because of 1 killer, Doctor I think there would be more examples of that, like gen kick meta nerfed cuz of knight or manga nerd. Why dont we use perk tiers…

On the audio rebalance
Recently in the QnA, the devs said that in a recent update they normalised Survivor sound levels. Now, I personally haven't noticed much, so I decided to test it. I loaded in against bots, and tested their injured grunts and scream sounds. This video (https://youtu.be/3Vib9EThQg8) is my results (I don't own all Characters,…
