2v8 killer queue time is a problem
I not asking to remove survivors BP bonus to play 2v8, but hell… queue time as a killer is insanely long and we don't have a incentive at all to play as a killer, like... 30+min to find ONE match that will take around 10 min to be done, seriously? Find a match as a survivor is fast, so the problem is lack of killers…

Xenomorph buff ideas
Flame turret: Increased the range at which turrets need to be before being setup from another to 5-8 meters to reduce double turret setups to burn xeno out of power constantly Increased flame turret firing range by 1 meter Reduced flame turret killer detection to 24 meters (was 41 meters) While xenomorph is undetectable,…

Bring back Technician!
Let's be real, who actually remembers Technician other than it's Feng's perk? When was the last time it was used by someone other than a new player (besides me cuz I hold onto things of old)? Technician in it's current state is not good. It got shadow nerfed AGES ago to have really no benefit for the drawback. Any player…

New costume lara croft
I wanted to take a moment to express my admiration for your excellent work on Dead by Daylight. In particular, the addition of Lara Croft has been a fantastic highlight for me and many others in the community. The model design and attention to detail truly showcase your team's creativity and dedication. Given how much I…

Feedback for 9.0.0 PTB Preview Patchnotes
The Notes Themselves: Make sure you add the word "Attempt" before self-unhook if you're going to only mention the ones that gamble the self-unhook! I don't think you're dumb enough to disable Deliverance & Anti-Camp unless you bring a luck offering, or at least not intentionally. But it will make people worry!…

The very sad state of ghoul *in my opinion*
I'm a P42 ghoul, all those prestiges came purely from the bp I got from playing them, no survivor grinding. Safe to say, I've played ALOT of ghoul. I come to the forums to plee, because these recent changes are, to put it simply, really bad. Practically every nerf so far I've been on-board with, I'm not the "nerf = bad"…

Killer perks and add-ons are broken and that's why people quit
If you really want to stop people from quitting games and abusing abandon. Don't penalise the go next mentality. Fix the problem. People quit vs Ghoul? Cause its not fun to get rushed down 1 microsecond into the game by an auto aim 2000ft long tentacle People quit vs Legion? Because who likes to be un-able to hide or run…

Ongoing Issues with Macro Killers, Penalty System, and Match Quality
Dear [Developer/Support Team], I’m writing this as a long-time player who genuinely enjoys the core gameplay of your title. The game itself is incredibly well-designed, and it’s clear a lot of care went into building its mechanics and atmosphere. However, I must raise serious concerns that are making the game nearly…

New killer idea
With the addition of FNAF it got me thinking. It has likely been mentioned before but I think it would be a great addition to add Bendy from bendy and the ink machine. Having bendy/ink demon I think could have a lot of potential

Feedback on PTB 'Go Next Prevention / Spawn Rules'
Remove luck offerings from the game, reimburse BP per offering. Remove Separation Offering Remove reagent offerings while we're at it Create new and useful/interesting offerings to replace them Rework Slippery Meat and Up the Ante Luck is an archaic mechanic and just needs to go so it's not abusable for the new go next…

Ghost face gets revealed way too fast!!
I am a ghostface main and have 800 HOURS Ghost Face is a fun and unique killer, but his current reveal mechanic makes him feel weak and inconsistent. Survivors can reveal him way too easily, even by accident through thin objects or while not even fully aiming at him. A fair fix would be to make it so survivors need to aim…

I think it is necessary to fix the "Linger Tech" to elevate the quality standard of the game.
What is the Linger Tech? As the name suggests, the linger tech is a tech that takes advantage of the prolonged persistance on an attack's hitbox to "move" this attack and still hit a target that is not in the initial line of fire. We mostly see this on Nemesis and sometimes Alien. What do i mean with "quality standard" of…

Re-Mapping the Realms: Haddonfield
Ah, Lampkin Lane, oh GOD Lampkin Lane! This map, infamously, has never been balanced. It's always been tipped one way or the other. For most of its life, it was the most Survivor-sided map in the game but right now, it's one of the most Killer-sided ones. Lampkin Lane Fixing up Lampkin Lane is not an easy task, but, well,…

Game start killer animations.
So. Not a long time ago I watched the video about ranking the killers spawning animations and saw a comment that was suggesting a lot of cool animations for AFK killers that just stand there without the animation like Trapper or Wraith. This motivated me to suggest you to create more animations for them. That's the…

Bulk spending / Auto bloodweb filter suggestion
The recent bloodpoint spending changes are incredible and much needed for the game, however as the last thing I'd suggest I would propose a system that changes how the pathing in the auto spending system works. Just like the current system prioritizing perks, and then cheapest nodes, we could have one that prioritizes…

Bulk Bloodpoint feedback and suggestions
Question for the team, With the bulk bloodpoint spending, does it act just like clicking the button in the middle? Or does it take the cheapest nodes/prioritizes event items and offerings? I would love to give feedback and suggestions to make the bulk bloodpoint spending save you the most possible bloodpointsfor more…

Map Offering Imbalance Between Killer/Surv
The survivor team FULLY controls the map you go to and it's a problem that has been in the game forever. Not only do survivors acquire 4x more map offerings per team average (4 people doing bloodwebs individually for a tremendous% chance map offering) They can also use a sacrificial ward on only 1 out of 4 members of the…

Opinions on the current version of the ghoul?
I want to know what people are thinking about the current version of ghoul, to play and play against. and maybe share changes they think are healthy. Im currently maining ghoul and going for body blocks mid loop, which is hard to do but very cool to pull off. Example of a body block mid loop Some changes i would like for…

Reintroduce hooks to 2v8 with pulleys and additional portals
When the killer hooks the survivor with new animation, instead of swapping for a cage, the closest hook will start to reel down its hook with a pulley through a portal on the ground to appear in front of the killer then reel it back up to make more sense and a seamless transition with the new animation while also possibly…

Why does 2v8 Killers get something not even SoloQ Survivor get?
What is the point of Aura Reveal when Chase begins? Is it to help Solo Killer tag-team Survivor without Comms? Why do Kill get coordination and not even SoloQ Survivor get it.

Bugs/exploits/techs that should be removed
Killer 1 - Wesker's hug tech - Wesker is supposed to slightly bump off environment when colliding with it, however with hug tech he can just straight up slide around certain loops, eliminating a big part of his counterplay. I like playing as/vs Wesker but hug tech is unfair and shouldn't be a part of his gameplay 2 - Oni's…

2v8 needs a lot of CHANGES
This mode in theory is very fun, but it has been suffering practically since the 1st iteration. The killer role has continued being much more popular than the surivvor mode, hence the killer queue times have always been bad (and have gotten worse, I believe) I order to fix the queue problems, these are the solutions I…

Kill-Switch Deathslinger
I suggest to killswitch Deathslinger untill their aim animation is back, it is pretty unfair and gamebreaking not being able to react to a killer power because no visual or sound clues are playing

2v8 Class Shakeup Ideas
I won't sugarcoat it: 2v8 makes all killer queue times awful, and while the next iteration after this one has some fixes planned, I still feel the survivor role needs new shiny toys to play with so people feel more inclined to pick that role over the novelty of playing with a killer teammate. I think one of the best ways…

Quality of Life Improvement: Favorites Feature

Currently, players navigate through extensive lists, often using the search bar to find specific elements. However, many players…

Bots in 2v8
Hiiii in the match i was just in the one bot had a tendency to continuously rescue survivors while in a chase, which really just condemns whoever is rescued (me) to being tunneled out of the game, if there was a sort of check to take advantage of the fact that not rescuing survivors while the killer is nearby is to a much…

Premonition Rework Concept
While your Aura is revealed to the Killer, Premonition activates and notifies you. If Premonition has been active for a total of 30/25/20 seconds, you see the Killer's aura for 3 seconds, and Premonition's timer resets. Premonition cannot activate while you are afflicted with the Blindness, Oblivious or Exhausted status…

Killer changes I‘d like to see
Traper Traps spawn armed at pallets and windows. Smaller terror radius (24 or 28meters) to make locating the tarps more difficult. He can carry 4 traps. Rearming and setting up traps is faster. He can select one trap like xeno can with his tunnels and when he opens a locker that trap disappears and enters your inventory.…

Allowing Players to Use Wesker in 2v8 Is... a Decision
Why would you allow a character to be played that can softlock both the killer and a survivor for an entire match? In what world does that make sense? Take him out until you fix him! There are plenty of other killers to play.

Can we please address the weskers dash hit box problems with map environments
Everytime I play as and against mastermind, the Killer tends tk dash into obstacles that should allow them to slide off & stop at others, I just had a match where wesker dashed into a wall and slid off instead of stopping while stopping on a corner where, visibly, wasn't even close to, and stopped him entirely instead of…

2v8 has overstayed it's welcome
Here's the thing Lights out was about like 4 or 5 days and choas was a week long but 2v8...two weeks yeah no I'm sorry but it's a game mode that overstays it's welcome. Atrocious queue time for killer and even then terrible killer match where you get destroyed if you don't have a legion on your team. Plus after a while I…

these color changes to items and addons is just stupid
i'm probably the five thousandth person to complain about this but the color change was completely unnecessary and just stupid. the old color system was fine and whatever excuse was given for the color change is pointless and has no bearing on reality. please change it back. you won't, but i'm still gonna ask.

Ranked Mode – Solo/Duo Queue to Preserve Balance and Immersion

While his points about the necessity of…

Hook count displayed next to Survivors
Im a Killer main and im not good at remembering who i hooked how often, i dont want to look like im tunneling people only because i cant count properly.

Request for P100 Houndmaster rewards - additional Main Menu lobby animation.
So I was logging in today and I thought, Houndmaster and Snug have a nice animation at the main menu, the one with Snug losing attention with Survivors and she redirects Snugs attention. Its very cute. I was thinking if it would be possible for your team to create an extra lobby animation for reaching P100 Houndmaster, the…

Dungeons and dragons part 2 chapter ideas
So what would be as iconic and intimidating to face in dnd besides vecna? What about The Beholder itself?

Not giving Killers a generic +1 chest offering is an oversight
So I know this a minor me thing, but I feel like this is a genuine oversight that needs to be addressed. There is a perk called Human Greed. This perk shows you temporarily the aura of Survivors when they go near a chest. This means the killer should want there to be as many chests as possible. For add ons, there isn't…

Shattered Hope Should Be Basekit and Reworked
Overview Shattered Hope is currently one of the least viable killer perks. Its intent—to counter survivor Boons—is solid, but in practice, it fails to provide meaningful utility given the current meta and map design. Especially when survivors choose not to bring a boon and you instantly lose one quarter of your perk…

Old tinkerer should come back.
i get that old tinkerer was really opressive and stuff,but it was honestly SO FUN going with or against with the perk. Obviously in todays meta its unbalanced so i have a few suggestions to make it actually work. 1-time based- tinkerer works as usual, but only activates once a machine is done, for lets say 15-30 seconds.…

Oni 2v8 Innate Skill turning speed
The innate skills of the Oni include increasing the turning speed of Demon Dash by 20%. This makes him far too maneuverable with the rest of the buffs, plus the changes allowing him to flick in any direction. This should be dialed back for the next iteration. Especially for a killer built on 1-hit downs and snowballing.

Sadako Addon Buff/Rework Suggestions
This isn't really one of the big "thorough and comprehensive" posts I do sometimes, I've just noticed a few addons I think could be tweaked here and there. Sadako needs basekit changes as well, but those are a little outside the scope of this post. Here's what I've got for Sadako: Cabin Sign: Reduces the time it takes for…

Anti-Tunneling: Stick & Carrot
Tunneling is currently a strong, viable tactic for killers as is quickly reduces the number of survivors. However, tunneling is a constant complaint by the playerbase as it's not fun to have your hook hovered or patrolled, if not outright camped, by the killer who is waiting to re-hook you. It also aggravates those who…

Removal of Bloodpoint Cap
So, I've never seen the point with the Bloodpoint cap at all as it doesn't really serve any purpose to the game as much. As players may want to save a lot for a specific character from Survivors/Killers. Don't get me wrong, I'm pleased that the cap has increased to 5 mil, but why didn't it get removed altogether? What do…
