Which Characters are Played as the Most?
I was just thinking about this, and I don't think I've ever seen any statistics regarding pick rates for different survivors and killers, so I wanted to know if there are any.

Dwight and Legion, clearly.0

Claudette and Meg are probably the most popular. Tapp and Quentin probably the least.5

Squadette0

I imagine Hillbilly is probably up there. Just guessing, though.

I play Feng and The Pig0
-
Billy, Claudette, Dwight, Nea and Meg have to be the top 5
2 -
Hillbilly leatherface and Michael myers0
-
Blendette.0

we would need a complex and long SQL query from the DBD side to answer to that accurately
so from my inaccurate perspective I think Claudette is the most played cuz she is camo/perks
from killers is harder to guess

if there isn't any statistics available do your own. start with scientific method. make an observation, ask how why who or what, answer question - hypothesis, design an experiment to test hypothesis - with replication. accept or reject hypothesis based on data.
what I would do as my own test: play a number of games, can be 10, 20, 50, however many. The more one plays the more data one can collect. play half as a survivor of your choice (exclude yourself so bias play wont be an issue. [i.e picking same character the whole experiment.]) and other half as killer. Each game you play tally up who is playing what characters. eventually you will find out who is played more. fun little idea. I'd do this twice in the year. one at the begging and one near October. i'm sure you'd get different results. others can test it too, never hurts to compare data.
just a random suggestion1 -
Claudette and Trapper are the most played.
I was confused with Trapper as I was expecting Billy. Someone explained that it is because it's the go-to character for new players.26 -

Claudette is no surprise. She seems to be picked around 20% of the time in games I play as the killer. That is a rough guestimate though. Trapper on the other hand is a little surprising.

Do you have statistics of the 2 least played characters aswell? Would be interesting, I will guess nurse (because too difficult) and Jake0 -

Yeah he's on the cover of the game, and the 1st one. And he looks menacing. Plus Samination's videos have glorified him in a good way.

Well trapper is the first killer to select and if you are new and have no clue or favorite you just pick the first one and if the my dailies aren't broken, the trapper is the first daily you have to do.

Well that is what I'm saying. He's glorified as this "cool" funny type of killer. SO people might play him more for that too...
Just because he's like the really unique nice killer.

There's no way it stays the same, at least for killers. someone has to get pushed out to make way for Nurse and Billy

Trapper's a surprise. He is a boring killer to play.

Claudette is something........else0 -
Would be cool to see a complete statistic about it. About how much everyone is played.

Do you have rankings of the nost popular DLC from top to bottom?
Not looking for the actual sales numbers, just rankings.
E.g. I imagine the Halloween chapter would be near the top due to how popular laurie and michael are. Whereas you never see clown or Hag, so I imagine curtain call and Of flesh and mud would be nearer to the bottom.

I guess.
It's hard to tell though when shards and shrine come into it. I.e. buying ruin off the shrine and ditching both, or people that bought Kate with shards and skipped the dlc pack.
Kind of glad less people use Hag. She's a pain in the ass when I play survivor. I think stats wise she was confirmed as the least used killer, followed by clown. Which is weird because both are pretty good.

The most played characters are Meg, Claudette, Nea, Billy, and Nurses
I almost never see any Tapp, Quentin, Adam or Freddy :(

I doubt Claudette would be the most picked survivor if she didn't have Self Care/Empathy starting out. Those are a lot more useful to a new player than Sprint Burst, and possibly Urban Evasion.

I can try to see if I can get data on more. Not promising anything tho.

I'm surprised by Trapper also, and Claudette I wasn't cause... its Claudette lmao.
