Alright guys, it's been a while since we had any truly QoL updates, what would everyone like to see?


I'd like to see:


Holding shift to negate the bloodweb hold to buy, so it instantly buys and you can drag through the nodes.

Saving perk loadouts

Saving survivor/killer outfits

Seeing your current challenge progress in the pause menu in DBD

Seeing emblem progress in game

Perk page doesn't change when you click the perk slot you want to change

Apply-To-All-Characters charm option

    Use the d-pad on the menu.

    The "cursor" thingie is so slow... so obnoxious...

    Opening credits turned down by like a thousand.

    Able to raise survivors or killers regardless of which queue you are in

    Able to change challenges without constantly being disconnected from your lobby (happens to me more often than not)

    Either remove or shrink that dark circle that appears when the killer hooks someone. There have been times where I'm looking directly at the hook to see which way the killer walks after the hook and even though I have line of sight, I can't see anything.

    Being able to mass buy stuff from the BloodWeb. Doing it all by hand is super tedious, I would rather tell it to prioritize certain things and let it go nuts with 1 mil than do it myself.

    Would love to see the "Switch to Survivor/Killer" button return.

    I really like the idea of saving perk loadouts. There are certain matches when I want to do things.

    My standard build on my maxed out characters is "Lithe, Inner Strength, We'll Make It, Plunderers" (Lithe and Inner Strength are my non-negotiables currently)

    When I want to try hard or when I face too many campy killer in a row, I'll switch out Plunderers with Borrowed Time.

    There was a short time where I changed my name to trash perks and put on things like "Up the ante, sole survivor, and other lame perks no one uses.

    Being able to quickly switch between those builds would be cool

    I do perk roulette a lot, so being able to go to my default build with a press of a button would be super dope!

    Being able to choose what hook will appear in the trial as killer.

    Could be easily chosen in the same menu that decides hook decorations.

    Holding x (shift) while in struggle state instead of spamming it.

    Legacy and default prestige as a layer instead of specific outfits and toggling killer specific chase music. I’m sorry but the Doctor’s chase music is very fitting for the character but it makes it incredibly hard to hear when I’m a killer and is super annoying to listen to every single chase as a killer.

  • Seanzu

    Almost like a toggle on the character, I like that. Just a little tick box (Killer Chase/Default Chase Music).

    I half and half like the legacy/default thing but think it would suit better to only being default prestige you can change.

    oooh! I like this too, I remember a while back when I knew where every perk was, and now with new perks every 3 months and them being not so memorable it's a lot tougher!

    Remove stick wiggle on console. My sticks break fast enough. Mario Party 1 was over 20 years ago, have game developers not learned since then? Make it alternating button presses instead (player can pick 2 buttons in control options).

    Make phase 2 hook opt-out instead of opt-in. By this I mean you automatically struggle unless you press and hold a button to let go (choice in options).

    Let console players equip perks/items/add-on using just D-pad and buttons. This whole "fake mouse pointer" is annoying AF. This goes for any game that uses it. We get it, you ported the game from PC. Time to commit to what actually makes sense for a controller.

    Remove the mori channel and just make mori it's own button. We don't even use all the buttons on console for killer so this wouldn't be an issue. This is to both make mori easier to perform and remove the ability to mori spam (an actual serious issue on Xbox).

    Prioritize vault actions over lockers when running for survivors.

    Increase the time between a survivor opening a locker when another survivor is inside. You can actually trap the survivor in a locker by spamming the button.

    Let us to preview combinations of store items before purchase.

    Make Spirit take out her weapon in Rift previews.

    Shorten opening credits

    Option to instant buy items in web

    "Buy in bulk" option in web (like hold this button to buy x items per second )

    Does having 60fps on console count?


    If not. I wanna see the huge delay between leaving a killer lobby to cue up for survivor decreased moderately

    Its kinda sad how often these threads get made but here we go again:

    1. The ability to mix and match outfits in the store before buying them all.

    What would be extra amazing, what if they had a preview button in the store that would load you into the tutorial level so you can run around a bit with that new outfit setup you might want to buy.

    2 A dedicated PTB file to download so we dont have to re-download the entire game twice everytime a PTB is released.

    3 A more controlled PTB, no longer a copy of your profile but instead just a pre-setup profile for everyone with in it limit supply of stuff that dont help with testing. AND a maybe dedicated rift panel for it so there are actual objectives that help with testing with a reward Charm at the end for the normal game.

    (for the last ptb for example one of the objective would be saboing 5 hooks in a match, then another where you have to sabo with a toolbox etc etc)

    Its okay people, devs will read all of this and probably implement something polar opposite of what has been asked after few years.

    Getting an in-game notification upon successful completion of a Daily Ritual or Challenge.

    Rapid level up, a way to instantly level up a Survivor or Killer and designate the target level or max you wish to redeem. Example, click on Zarina with 1M points banked and select "Level to 40" or "Highest Possible" and it will auto redeem your BPS. Even if you could rapidly level up in increments of 5 or 10.

    Increase cap to 2.5M or whatever they desire.

  • Seanzu

    I still think they should tie BP Cap to devotion, raise your BP cap by 50K with every level, that way it rewards their long standing players by making it easier for them to level and enjoy new content.

    That is a great idea. There should actually be a special charm for reaching 10, 15, 20, etc.

    Make prestige skins to outfits aswell so you equipe all 3 parts at the same time and dont need to take them 1 by 1.

    I am a person who likes to switch skins often, and it just sucks to dont have Prestige skins at the outfit section.

    Thanks here is one more.

    When you give another survivor Borrowed Time the perk icon will flash to confirm it.
