Kill Switch update: We have temporarily Kill Switched the Forgotten Ruins Map due to an issue that causes players to become stuck in place. The Map will remain out of rotation until this is resolved.

    You can turn it off, but I think it’s because the devs want you to play the game a certain way.

    You can turn it off
    "Press Windows Key + R and in the Run dialog box, type, %appdata%/../Local/DeadByDaylight/Saved/Config/WindowsNoEditor and open the file GameUserSettings.ini in any text editor.

    From there, change bUseVSync=True to bUseVSync=False and FrameRateLimit=0.000000 to FrameRateLimit=300.000000 or whatever you feel like the limit should be."

    I know you can do it that way, but you shouldn't have to do that.
