MAJOR RACISM ISSUE
I just played a killer with a racist name and they only killed the black character playing with us. They tunnelled and shook their head at us when we tried to unhook. Personally, I do not think that is acceptable. I understand it’s “just a game” and not real life and killers can pick and choose who to kill if they want to, but I don’t think any form of racism in gaming or real life should be tolerated. I did report them though.

Report them to Steam or EGS.
I don't think BHVR has any jurisdiction over profile names. I think that's up to the platform owners.

Report them both post-game and to the platform they're on. All you can really do.

It is not acceptable and it is good that you reported them.
Who cares if it's a game or anything else, being that vile towards others is disgusting.

I've seen very similar names.
It seems real to me.

It is something that definitely actually happens, albeit very rarely for most people. I simply just can't understand people who just tunnel poc characters in a video game, just be a normal person and tunnel the booner.

Downplaying the situation. It’s easy to put two and two together. Let’s not 😂

I also thought posting on here might help get them reported too. Wasn’t sure!

We are not able to do anything in regards to a player's in-game behavior here on the Forums, it is handled by the ACMs via in-game reports, as well as tickets submitted to Support. From what you posted, their name should definitely be reported to the platform that they are on, and the name along with the behavior targeting a character for their race does sound like it warrants a report for targeted harassment. An in-game report for this is required, and Support ticket is optional, but if you wish to make a ticket, you can do so here: https://support.deadbydaylight.com/hc/en-us/requests/new
For more info on reporting, you can find it here in our Game Rules: https://forum.deadbydaylight.com/en/kb/articles/139-game-rules
(Also, a little reminder that Naming and Shaming is against our rules here on the Forum; if a post will reflect negatively on others, please do not show names, thank you!)
