    per nerfed Hangman trick is a good perk and had one of the best ability's in the game.

    Exhaustion perks design is very bad.

    Most of killers add-ons aren't great but could be great and creative.

    The game itself cannot work as a repetitive game and the dev should always work on the base gameplay of the game or drastically change the way loops work so the game feel fresh.

    Deathslinger is fun to play against.

    Sprintboost is stronger then Dead hard.

    Killers with a strong chase are good for the game and force survivors to play differently if they'd want to win.

    Also the less basic M1 killers there are in the game adds to the variety of gameplay the survivors have in the game.

    Finally great skill checks bonus progression are partially responsible for gen rushes as they can shave off a surprising amount of time(Even after they been nerfed by 50%).

    Perks that affect skill checks should make them significantly harder or change what the skill check is.

    DS should be buffed to have tokens to punish the killer if he tunnels. If they do an objective they lose DS until hook.

    Quite unpopular, is it not? Well, there are a few reasons as to why:

    -I never had any problems with people holding the game hostage, which leads me to believe that it wasn't as common as perceived to be.

    -Having a timer at the end of the game is not something that I enjoy. It does nothing other than encourage scummy tactics and rushed actions.

    -Blood Warden value guaranteed, if you managed to catch a survivor, since doors were opened right away.

    -EGC's weird sounds are extremely annoying.

    -It did not exist back when I started. That is the image that I have of the Endgame.

    They should bring old Undying back, it brought a new meta after 1 year and half of the omnipresent corrupt pop and survivors actually started to do totems

    Once you master his tonics and antidotes, Clown is one of the most fun killers to play as.

    Trickster is a very unique killer power-wise.

    That Perks on Killerside, especially slowdown Perks are very overrated because most teams you play against are average. My only slowdown Perk is Corrupt, then I go with what's comfy. Bbq for points, Shadowborn for FoV, Agitation for less wasted time when hooking.

    And even slowdown Perks won't really help against sweat teams so yeah. I think perks aren't as needed on Killer as people think.

    Then there's no such thing as gen rushing or survivors being toxic

    if its a fair killer, sure, spirit is fun to verse. But that's kinda the issue, most people playing spirit arent really fair killers. They use her ability to tunnel and facecamp people.


    She still has issues even if people play her fairly tho.

    I think we should go back to some licenses and add more content. I think the popular opinion is we need more licenses (that are done well) but I think we have a lot of honorable franchises that should be added to. Main examples

    • A potential paragraph to Halloween that adds Samuel Loomis as a survivor
    • L4D having some similarities with DBD (mainly the 4 survivors against near impossible odds), I think it would be nice to go with a full on chapter (my opinion being Coach should be the new survivor, with either a Charger/Tank, Witch, or potentially Horde of zombies as a killer)
    • If we ever get licensing to the original Nightmare on Elm Street franchise, Nancy Thompson is an obvious survivor addition.
    • We should get a Scream chapter. The Ghost Face doesn't count, it's just a mask. I mean the Killer from the original movie and Sidney Prescott.
    • Resident Evil should get another chapter eventually. Not in this year, maybe not even in the next, but I think Resident Evil should be revisited eventually.

    Playing killer is way more balanced than it used to be and fine how they are. Survivors aren't OP. And im a killer main

    Decisive Strike’s skill check should be slightly delayed so the Killer gets a chance to drop the Survivor if they picked them up by accident or are forced to grab them (ie, locker, vault, chest, “CJ tech”). But not delayed enough so much that the Killer can hook the Survivor while the skill check is running.

    Exhaustion perks are completely unfair by design and only really bad survivors actually think they're necessary and/or comparable to slowdown perks in terms of genuine requirement. They're not, info perks/comms are.

    True "skill" does not exist in this game because of how the game works. If we want skill to truly be a thing, DBD would have to change at it's core. How Survivors defend against Killers, etc.

    In soloq Self-Care is one of the best perk and is mandatory if you are not holding a medic kit

  • Grimmy_Bluues

    Killers should get an extra perk slot that only allows perks that activate based on gens completed such as Coup De Grace, Fire Up, and Bitter Murmur.

    Kharbarg Member Posts: 126

    Dead by Daylight is getting better year after year because improved balance but above all because the constant adition of new maps, new killers and new perk.

    SWF needs some kind of in game nerf or killers needs some kind of in game buff against SWF.

    Felix is not hot. He is seem like loser.

    Look at David, he is strong, muscular, fit and hot. I really do not know why people saying Felix is hottest male survivor. David is still here, hello.

    legion is hard to counter in solo, but with a little communication, making sure you're spread out can make using their power extremely difficult. and you should be spreading out on gens whenever possible anyway

    Wake Up is a good perk and Deja Vu is one of the worst perks.

    C3Tooth Member Posts: 8,266

    Low tier Killers like Trapper, Pig, Demo, Plag (incoming Nemesis) are well designed. Because they gives survivor something to interact with. Their power are rounded, not focus on 1 aspect.

    The breakable walls are a good addition, but the devs in the reworks have implemented them bad and poorly.

    Bubba and Wraith take zero skill to play, even at red rank.

  • WheresTheGate
    WheresTheGate Member Posts: 576

    The rank system on the survivor side unintentionally encourages a style of play that is often selfish and counterproductive to escaping.
