The Lack of a DC Penalty Has Improved the Game
I actually think removing the DC penalty has drastically improved the game. As killer, I've only had one match out of the last two dozen or so where people DCed early when the game was still "winnable," and that might have just been because it was on Hawkins which is a pretty universally despised map. I won every match…

Some Ideas For Boons
Now, before I delve into the ideas I have, I do want to mention that this is more a series of changes intended to adjust the more annoying parts of boons (from either side) and boost the more interesting parts to bring some more attention to the archetype. I'm not trying to lift them out of the gutter and into the light,…

Rick Grime's Apocalyptic Ingenuity
Chest‑based survivor perks are basically dead on arrival, rare survivor will sacrifice 25% of their build for a chest related perk. Moreover if choosing between this category, there are way more useful ones. Current perk desc states: After unlocking or rummaging through 2 chests, press Ability Button 1 for 8 seconds next…

New Anti-Tunnel Mechanic idea
When a survivor is unhooked, they receive two conditional effects: Entity’s Protection (30 seconds): A Decisive Strike-like effect activates. If the survivor is downed by the killer during this 30-second window, the effect is retained until one of the following happens: The survivor uses the stun against the killer…

More skins for Houndmaster please 🙏🏼 Choice of Dog
I want more skins for her but the ability to choose which dog I want. Would love more options for dogs as well. :) Somedays I wanna give snug a break and choose a different dog 🐕 to help me sniff out these pesky survivors.

Add a new killer without a full update.
Had the thought. Release a killer without any notice. Wanna see the game pop? Start a new killer that no one knows. Only devs play as or certain people that won't ruin it. Starts gossip about a new killer type in game. Makes the game scary for veteran players. Imagine how scary that would be. A match with a complete new…

I actually changed my mind about antitunnel antislug
I'm killer main, and I was hard defending the urge to put on pressure when the game is not going in your favor. But as there is ongoing event and I swapped to survivor role, mainly due to queue times I must say that I never ever suffered such a frustration playing survivor. I don't mind killers bringing meta perks (dms,…

Springtrap's (The Animatronic) Biggest Power Flaw (Security Doors) and Ideas to Improve it
Security Doors: The most flawed part of The Animatronics kit for many reasons, from the Jumpscare mechanic being obsolete, to the Doors favoring Survivors more than the Killer, to an abundance of design flaws. Most can probably agree that the Doors add more to the Survivor-side than the Killer side. For Survivors they add…

Badham Either Needs Reworked or Deleted
I'm sorry, but this map is absolutely ridiculous. Not only is it absolutely massive, but it has THREE main buildings, and all of them are very strong. And a shack. And a strong pallet loop every few feet, with all of them low enough that you can't even mindgame any of them. It's to the point that I just don't even want to…

We should have shared inventory
I think having items add ons and offerings shared across all survivors would be nice, and it would encourage more survivor variety. This might be harder for killers because their add ons are all different but I think offerings should at least be shared.

Could the devs please add the Aro/Ace flag to the charms?
I was super happy to see the Ace and Aro flags join the charms, but I don't know if the devs know there is a third flag that is used by people who are both Aro and Ace. It's a really pretty one, and the colors look kind of like a sunrise (Orange, yellow, white, medium blue, and dark blue) I know it seems like a small…

Ranks need a whole redo
it needs to be significantly harder to reach Iridescent ranking. It’s so easy to get any skill level can basically acquire iridescent ranking and that just ignored the whole point of ranks if anyone of any skill level can reach the top. Needs to be way harder, rewarding for reaching such ranks

Myers should have base kit undetectable when using stalk while in Evil Within Tier 2.

Change the survivor door camera interaction ending button to space
I have been wondering why when playing against Springtrap and if you use his door cameras the leave button is the crouch button and not space that you use to get into the cameras in the first place. Logically the button to end the interaction should be the same you start it so you should exit the cameras with pressing…

How would yall nerf/buff/balance these characters?
I already said how I would, and even with valid changes like fixing weskers hit boxes or reworking acid blood addon so its not useless, people still disagree/downvoted without giving their opinion, except for a select few, so Instead, let's hear YOUR ideas Characters in question: Knight Dredge Wesker Xenomorph Demogorgon…

Be more consistent on the Bug Reporting forum with template declines.
How is my post that adheres to the template as much as possible gets declined for not using it and other posts that blatantly don't use it properly get asked for more info instead of getting decline for not using it? Tell us what is missing and allow us to add or at least know what we need to do for next time or if it's…

What characters would you like to see to get a rework similar to the ptb executioner
Basically the title, im curious to know what killers yall would like to get the same rework treatment that pyramid head got For me, it'd be legion, xenomorph & demogorgon, I would like to say ghoul & springtrap but they are too new & recently added to deserve a rework rn This can be any part of said killer, like Perks,…

Buff Trapper's Bloody Coil addon
This addon in its current state injures a healthy surv who disarms a trap. All well and good, except that it does nothing to stop someone from following Trapper and disarming every trap he puts down. It's a similar situation to Ghostface where a smart team can just devote one guy and leave him with no power. Thus I suggest…

How would you fix tunnel? my idea
Regarding tunneling, what I would do is implement a system where each unique survivor gives the killer a unique card (like the Trick Cards from the event). You hook the first survivor? You get a random buff (for example, 5% faster recovery after a basic attack). You hook the same survivor again? You get nothing**. But if…

Following the DBD Satisfaction Survey – Here's My Wishlist for Improvements
Hey everyone, I’ve been thinking about what changes most of us might agree the game needs—whether it's map reworks, balance tweaks, or quality-of-life improvements. I’ll share some of my thoughts below, and I’d love to hear what you all think. Map Reworks Backwater Swamp This map is frustrating to play on for both sides.…

HALO chapter when?
Think about it, you could use a flood form as a killer perhaps the tank Add Sergeant Johnson or someone not too OP of the sort as a survivor You could add skins for other survivors and killers for example an Elite/Sangheili for the Demogorgon Captain Keyes or Dr Halsey as skins for survivors there are a lot of directions…

Suggestion: Color-blind Settings
Hooks should be a different colour when picking up a survivor for accessibility reasons. It can be hard to distinguish hooks from gens if both are in front or behind one another. Another suggestion to alleviate the former would be color-blind settings. Inclusivity can make or break a game.

Invocation/Scourge Hooks/Boon/Hex ideas?
I'll leave my 4 ideas and look forward to yours. Invocation: Mending Wolves - After completing 60s ritual there will spawn ritual symbol within basement. Stepping on it will passively heal any survivor within course of 24s. The invocator is penalized with 20 % debuff to healing. (This will be high risk perk that…

New Perk: The Prestige
I woke up today thinking about the Prestige (great movie) and it lead me to this perk idea: Entering a locker highlights it in yellow for you and any hooked survivor. Performing an unhook teleports the unhooked survivor to the highlighted locker. If it's overpowered, which it may very well be, it can be compensated with…

Houndmaster - Revisited
So, some time ago, I proposed some changes that the devs could do to Houndmaster to make her a better killer. I'd like to redo them in this post. Constructive feedback is appreciated. Here they are: Chase Command: • Make Snug's pull cycles faster. In short, this makes Snug have more pull strength. Search Command: • Polish…

Please give Springtrap the same wind-up time as Huntress
Huntress' wind-up time is 0,9 seconds. With Babushka she even has an addon that reduces the wind-up time to 0,8 seconds. Meanwhile Springtrap has a full second. Some might think 0,1 seconds is a joke, but it's a huge difference. The time it takes to wind up your Axe, a survivor can be gone around a corner or move away…

Are we no longer going to own the characters that we purchase?
in the recent PTB the owned icon on characters has been changed to saying unlocked same for cosmetics, I don’t know why they would change this specifically, but this genuinely makes me fear that we no longer own the characters that we purchase.

Reconsider the Cross-Progression policy.
Hey everyone, I’m writing this post to share my experience and raise awareness about a critical issue with the current Cross-Progression policy—one that I believe needs serious reconsideration. Some time ago, my email account was hacked and ultimately lost due to Microsoft's account closure policies. Unfortunately, that…

can we please have this QoL change to DbD?
bhvr, can you please give us the option to have 2 different buttons to pick up or search the locker? Let me give you an example. i played against 4 survivors with 4 flashlights i don't have any issues with flashlights at all… but but when i downed one of them, i couldn't pick the survivor up because she was facing the…

Can we please fix cloth physics
This is happening almost every match as Trevor Belmont, it really saddens me, it's irritating and hard to ignore and disappointing considering these are premium cosmetics.

Translation Error in Spanish (both versions)
Basically, someone made a translation error, or they used Google Translate. When someone leaves in the lobby or after a match, it should be "X se fue" rather than "X restantes". The current translation simply means "X remains", which I'm thinking either might be because there was not enough information for the translator…

I really enjoyed this Survey. It meant a lot. <3
Survey's if you don't know can be found in your In game mail box if you want to do them! All the survey's are important but this one really was an important one. I spent extra time filling it out and making sure I was being as honest as possible so BHVR could get the best amount of Feedback possible for the team. The…

Quest UI improvement
A suggestion: Please add an option (could be a button or something) in the Quests UI (which displays the quest sections Part1, Part2, etc., and the individual quests) that minimizes completed quest sections (Part1, Part2) and also hides individual completed quests. Currently, you have to scroll a lot to get an overview of…

I hope a killer like this gets created.
I hope you consider adding the Korean yokai ‘Gumiho’ as a killer. She’s a female spirit known for her mysterious charm, and I think she’d make a very compelling addition. I believe the Dead by Daylight developers would really like her too. The Gumiho is a fox spirit with nine tails from Korean folklore. She is known for…

Healing downed team mates need a boost
There has been too many games where I'm being healed while down and as soon as I'm healed I get downed again because the killer is returning to us. Most people aren't running buckle up, soul guard, we're going to live forever. Fix: Add buckle-up and we're going to live together (minus the healing speed for balance) when…

Change to the Yellow Rabbit Animatronic cosmetic
I hope this is not a duplicate of an already asked question, but i couldn't find anything in a pinch. In my opinion, it would be great if the yellow rabbit cosmetic would have two versions. One without the head piece, like it is now, and one with the headpiece, as seen in the movie. It would give that particular cosmetic a…

Reword Overcome For Better Clarity
"When you are injured, you retain the movement speed bonus for 2 seconds longer." Overcome only works when you're healthy, and does not activate with the speed boost you get from Deep Wound / Endurance. That should probably be added to the blurb to make it a bit more clear: "When injured from the healthy state, you retain…

Why are secret Survivor offerings hidden for their teammates?
If you're playing as Survivor, and one of your teammates brings in an offering that's labled as "Secret", why can't it at least be shown to their teammates? It makes sense for the Killer to be unable to see what this particular player is trying to do, but why hide potentially crucial information from the others?
-
Scourge hook idea
Mechanically just: Whenever someone gets unhooked from a scourge hook, the unhooked survivor will recieve a healthstate. The unhooking survivor will lose a healthstate(or get deepwounded), be broken for 120 seconds and have their aura revealed for 60 seconds while the killer will be undetectable for 60 seconds(mainly to…

New Pack?
I think that Dead By Daylight should make a Katseye or a BlackPink pack.

Myers tombstones
I see that Myers use tombstones 24/7 and every game i go against Myers they have tombstone piece add on If it's so popular, it might easily become basekit. Myers is allowed to kill 4 survivors total, he used to be able to kill 2 max. So 3 tombstone kills basekit would be fine.

Please address people spam picking up and putting down their items to prevent crows.
People do this to prevent crows and it needs to be stopped. You should detect it as part of the afk crow system and give them crows anyway. Also you need to rework the system it is now too long. This has been abused way to long. Also to anyone down voting this you are showing your true colours.

I am once again asking the Devs for Night Shroud Haste...
It felt great in 2v8. It doesn't need to be the 10% it was there, 2-3% would do. Just give Ghostface this one thing, then having to Reveal him would make sense as a counter and not just hinder him. He doesn't have any sort of mobility or anything, this would give him some. It's not even a big change or a hard thing to…

The tunneling needs to stop!
I know there's some update coming out in the future, but if it came out yesterday, it is still horribly long overdue. 90% of games, someone is getting tunneled out or proxy camped. And probably around a third of these games, it's just a hard tunnel right off of hook. This is absolutely insane. These jerk killer players are…

Rework or just retire map offerings already
With the recent change, map offerings only grant a 20% chance to get the map you want, which is pretty much unusable, would you rather have a chance to get a map or have more bloodpoints or spawn alone? You cannot even tell if the offering worked since you can still get the map even if the offering didn't really do…
