New Perk Type: Forgiveness/Sacrificed Perks
I think the dynamic gameplay experience of Dead by Daylight would be extended with "Forgiveness" perks that trigger when the player has entered an unfavorable experience. I'm not confident that my idea can justify creating an entire perk of classes, but I do see merit in the concept. There are two gameplay instances that…

Old descriptions phrases.
Please put back the old phrases or character depictions in the perks information, they were fun, engaging sometimes and can help understand even better the use of the perk or how the character is in his lore or personality. "Lady Luck always seems to be throwing something good your way." -Ace visconti "The increased…

Let's Talk about it. . .
I would love it If you guys would do something about the toxic players in this game. Or at least not penalize me for abandoning a match. When I'm literally the only one doing objectives and I see TWO of my teammates literally doing nothing. So many matches have been griefed. It's truly ridiculous that I'm forced to play…

IP block people from Africa from playing with US players
Seriously it's just impossible to catch someone who has 500 ping and causes every other person in the game to stutter.

Skull Merchants second scanline
Could you please bring back the Skull Merchants second scanline? Of course reduce the rotation speed back to 85 degrees per second. It would also make so many of her addons less useless since they are based a lot around Clawtraps. The single scanline is just too unreliable and it would make applying Clawtraps much easier.…

Skull Merchant in need of large buffs
Skull Merchant is by far the worst killer in the game. Otz has her ranked as F tier. There's just nothing that's effective on her. The change to 1 scan line made her unplayable. BHVR is not buffing Skull Merchant due to the 3 gen play style. Just make it so drones can't be placed near gens or something so she can be…

Hillbilly 8.3.0 Patch is overdone
Hello, I think there is currently an issue with how killer balance adjustments have been handled in Dead by Daylight, particularly regarding Hillbilly. When Hillbilly was buffed in Patch 7.5.0, most players agreed that he might have been slightly over-tuned. However, the nerfs that followed ended up making him feel…

Map offering issues
The map offering now carries a flat 20% chance, which means any achievements which require a generator to be completed (with an escape) such as the one just added, are arduous and excruciatingly hard to achieve. If all map variations in realms are included, these specific achievements are now near impossible to achieve.…

Cosmetic presets should also have a renamable feature just like what loadout presets have.
I seriously don't understand why only perk presets got that featured, back when it was first added. Cosmetic presets needs it just as much.

Improving the Xenomorph – Players’ Best Ideas for Developers
The Xenomorph is generally considered a B-tier killer, often closer to B-, and even C-tier for players in Asia. Since the changes in recent updates, the Xenomorph's tail attack can be easily dodged by survivors with even minimal skill or experience. When turrets are placed strategically, they become a real threat,…

Improvements for The Skull Merchant
Hello, I’d like to suggest some changes for The Skull Merchant. I know the voice of a single fan might not change much, but I believe it’s worth a try. Currently, the Skull Merchant feels quite monotonous to play as and against. While she was controversial before, people seemed to enjoy playing her more back then. I don’t…

Trail of Torment does not need "Fixing"
I just saw this line in the patch notes email I got. Please revert this on the next hotfix or update. Trail of Torment was already a niche perk that required a whole build and playstyle around it, utilizing blocking generators with Thrilling Tremors, in order to give more Undetectable than perks like Unforseen. A very fair…

is there an actual reason for end game chat?
why do we still have it because the close feature makes it so it randomly opens if you close it anyway its like i want a feature like every other game has to actually permantly disable it in settings so I don't have to worry about seeing you're a trash killer or negativity yes its nice when you see ggs but at this point…

Grimm Chapter with Blutbad Killer and Nick Burkhardt Survivor
I've been thinking about licenses that could fit Dead by Daylight and one that almost nobody talks about is Grimm. The show has a dark folklore theme with a lot of monster designs (Wesen) that could fit really well into the game’s horror atmosphere. A Grimm chapter could include: A new survivor (Nick Burkhardt ) A new…

DC penalty
can we please make the DC penalty 10 minutes for every DC. my internet is bad and I keep on crashing which is causing me to accumulate a large DC penalty and I can't just keep on playing, cause I will more likely just crash again and get a higher DC penalty. So I have to get off of the game for a few days in order to get…

Try the incentive to hook again
The original idea was good, just needed some tweaking. What can be done: → Each time survivor is hooked, all generators lose 10 % progress and begin regressing. → This is applied to every fresh hook (must be hook on different survivor every time) → If consecutive hook on same person is performed or if anyone dies before…

Bubba in need of moderate buffs
Bubba doesn't really fit at any skill level. Low level Bubba players struggle with Chainsaw timing and is heavily punished by bumping. Against high level survivors, Bubba lacks map pressure and is easily countered by Dead Hard. Otz has Bubba at C tier, and seth_kills who has been playing Bubba for thousands of hours…

Reasonable Ghoul Nerfs
First of all, he needs many of his animation bugs fixed or even changed. These bugs makes him way harder to tell what he is doing. I know BHVR is dead set on the auto aim feature but that doesn't mean it can't be changed. The Auto-aim shouldn't be instant. It is definitly fun to do it as a killer but feels unjustified as…

Just got hit with a warning because a Blight slugged everyone
Yeah, I was in a game against a Stupid Ice-Cane Comp Blight that slugged everyone using Infectious Fright, and I got hit with this: Gee.Thanks. Not only do I deal with literally THE SWEATIEST most obnoxious playstyle to go against on a very High Tier Killer, I also get punished for it because I died by Auto-Sacrifice…

Killer bugfixes need to be priortized more.
For lots of reasons, I think bugfixing killers should be a higher priority than it is right now. Firstly, because some killers just feel SO rough with the bugs that plague them. Houndmaster is a great example - but various snug bugs continue to make her feel really awkward to play, even though she's better than her release…

Dredge improvement ideas
I'm a dredge main myself, and while I enjoy playing him, he can get a bit limited in large loops against efficient teams, plus he's generally considered a below-average strength killer. I've got an idea to make him a lot more fun and boost his "being in multiple places at once" playstyle in a way that doesn't add too much…

Badham STILL Doesn't Have a Hook in the Basement
I don't know how, after years of people asking for this, there's still no hook spawn in the basement of the main building. I'm tired of survivors just running to the middle of the basement because they know there's no way you can make it to a hook when they go down. The map's already ######### enough for killers as it is. Put…

Red Hooded Raincoat for Eleven
Hi, I think it would be nice if add Eleven's wet red hooded raincoat. And/or a face-mask for her, just because. ( and would be nice if change her hook-scream to something more tolerable, tbh ) ( and if she could have more voice-lines like reacting to seeing killer the way Alan Wake does etc.) Thanks for listening :)

Spirit
Spirit needs at least a partial power recovery speed increase ( half the effect of Rusty Flute, so 20% ) and then adjust all of the passive recharge addons to compensate. Also, some add-ons need changing: • Senko Hanabi ( please don’t make it a status effect effect ) • Mother’s Glasses ( same as above ) • Juniper Bonsai (…

Regarding the Future of "The Skull Merchant"
The Skull Merchant has been through a very rough set of updates and so i thought i would take a crack at a rework concept that focuses on making her more active around the map in order to find her value while still maintaining her core audience: My core idea stems from her very own "style system" but themed around data…

The Legion's HUNK skin overhaul
The hunk skin for the legion is lacking feels overpriced. Much of the community has stated the lacking feel the Hunk skin has. I feel as if the skin were to receive a revamp as not to make it a cosplay but more as Hunk, Like a new Mori to match his iconic neck snap and maybe even new voice lines. Another thing I have seen…

I personally would like to see an overhaul on some of the games liscensed Characters, particularly ones before 2024.

Bringing Jack Krauser to DBD
I am doing a re-run on RE4R remaster and I would like to see a legendary skin for the Mastermind ( Albert Wesker).The skin I would like to see is Major Jack Krauser.

Flashlight Rework Pitch
I'm going to be pretty bold with this one, so I ask that you bear with me and really consider what I'm saying. When it comes to flashlights, the problems I'm aiming to fix aren't that the item is too strong or too weak. In that regard, I actually think flashlights are in a pretty good spot- my issues lay elsewhere. For…

You come up with some AMAZING designs and I mean amazing, truly. I then fall in love with it for you to only make changes that was not even requested for a change. Sadako - Loved her OG design!

The Onryo & The Pitfalls of Balancing Around Inexperience
At this point, basically all of us can agree that DbD has a problem with successfully onboarding new players.

A long essay meant for BHVR studios about DBD.
(This is an essay written on 3/13/2026 I haven't played since Stranger things chapter 2 dropped) Hello, I really do hope that the developers of DBD read this essay, it is meant for them. This might be the last time I'll come back to DBD (hopefully not) and I have a lot to say. I'm a veteran player, and have been here since…

A Weirdmageddon in the Fog: Gravity Falls Chapter Idea
Dear BHVR Team, I would love to see a collaboration between Dead by Daylight and Gravity Falls.

Killer dynamic audio responses
Say what you will about Chucky's viability, but his dynamic audio responses are hilarious. I'd love to see more killers have responses to things going on in the match. Mind you, they don't all need to be funny (and shouldn't be depending on the killer). https://youtu.be/SaFrDAyLvKs

Dead by Daylight x Grimm – This Crossover Would Be Perfect
I would love to suggest a collaboration between Dead by Daylight and the TV series Grimm. The world of Grimm fits very well with the dark and supernatural atmosphere of the game. There are many interesting characters that could work perfectly in DBD. For example, Nick Burkhardt as a survivor would be amazing, since he is a…

Keys and Maps
So Keys and Maps were reworked for the Walking Dead 9.1.0 patch on July 29th 2025 and I feel like they could still use a little more tweaking. I do like that the Keys open Chests now but there is only 3 chests per trial. I also like that there are only 3 Variations of Key, Maps, and Fog Vials each for Uncommon, Common, and…
