For me, it has to be a complete nerf /gutting of the meta on both sides. That's what I would like to hear. How about you guys?

    Make the choices more impactful in-game. I don't know how to explain it.

    Dead By Daylight THE MOVIE! 🤩 That would be hype.

    Of the things we've heard about previously, I'm looking forward to probably seeing details on the bloodweb revamp they've been working on the last six months. I'm curious what direction they go with it.

    They did mention "quality of life" as well, which I'm guessing includes things other than just the bloodweb. I certainly wouldn't mind seeing the daily missions getting a bit of a revamp. For instance, it would be nice to had a mission tracker on the HUD during the match, and also to have either separate mission logs for killer and survivor or have the missions be dual-purposes ones that either a killer or a survivor can complete (like the dual missions on the Rift.)

    Basic graphics and gameplay settings in-game:

    Shadow Quality, Post-Processing Quality, Effects, etc.

    And a FOV slider for killers, god idk why this is not in the game yet.

    They're not gonna "gut" all meta perks, my dude.

    For me it is a huge grind reduction.

    That they're no longer supporting continued development of the game past (insert date). There will be a month of rewards/events every day leading up to the day they pull the plug on the servers.

    People will hop on in droves and play to have fun.

    Other people will hop on to ruin everyone's last moments with the game and remind people why dbd ending is a good thing.

    My friends will finally be forced to play something other than this game and we can remember what it is to have fun in a video game together after we get used to playing b4b, ED:TG, or wwz or something other than this game.

    Cross progression. Everything you had unlocked on the current DbD gets transferred to the new one.

    Which doesn't has a spaghetti code and was made from scratch with the idea to record matches.

    Brave Girls collab with 4 legendary skins for Yun-Jin representing each member and a skin for Trickster representing E-Chan from their Pool Party MV lol.


    But realistically more Silent Hill content and major anti-cheat fixes

    Progression overhaul and solo queue/facecamping changes.

  • Crypticghoul

    Remove SBMM, take away Dead Hard i-frames (and nerf the really strong killers with this change), reduce grind.

  • Shroompy

    Theyve been doing that

    Thats probably why Year 5 was the buggiest one to date

    I need Mathieu Cote to lift up a physical Funko Pop in his hands and say, ‘this will be available for preorder right away’.

    I’ve never been so hyped, yet so crushed at the same time when he hastily announced them in the 5th anniversary stream - only to then have complete radio silence. If they’re not coming, that’s fine, but you shouldn’t have added something in as an after-thought that was never going to materialise.

    Other than that, gameplay wise - I’d like some practical solutions for; preventing camping, proxy camping and tunnelling. Even something as similar as Pyramid Head’s cages would go a long way. I need people to remember the game is supposed to be fun for both sides, not just defaulting to playing scummy because the match isn’t going your way.

    An actually optimized game and not "we're below a threshold for console".

  • Barbarossa2020

    Gen regression balance, i think it would do alot to help the meta/camping/tunneling.

    At the moment the best way to win is tunneling survs out rather than trying to slow down gen repair.

    Literally hearing them say that this perk would be getting a buff would make my day.

    What they’re actually going to do about Bubba facecamping.

    And potentially DH nerfs/rework, although I expect that to happen with the mid-chapter.

  • Mooks
    Mooks Member Posts: 14,841

    finally some meaningful base game mechanics changes to reduce the frustrating feeling of playing killer/soloq and making survivor gameplay outside of chases more fun instead of all actions just being ‚hold button in one spot for some time‘


    also very much this:


  • Barbarossa2020
    Barbarossa2020 Member Posts: 1,369

    Hatch removal would make 1v1 games go forever, Hence why it was invented. it's better now keys are "fair" but it's removal would just mean the last surv would just go semi afk until you rage quit.

    My dream quality of life update would be tome challenges giving you confirmation of progress during a match. Especially for challenges with super specific requirements that must be done in one match. For instance, it would be great to know if I've successfully hit survivors X times from Y meters away with Trickster's knives.

    Just kill last survivor, they've already lost team game and no need to give em chance after all.

    Unrealistically: SBMM is deleted.

    Realistically: SoloQ improvements.

    The best thing is to completely rework the game honestly.

    I'd hope they'd make it into an actual horror game.

    but if they announced a better chase, loop and the stuff system that's be cool.

    Top 3:

    Killer to survivor efficiency changes. Make survivors objective slower or killer faster, rework/change the way hooks work so tunneling is no longer the most efficient all the time.

    Remove boons.

    Perk tiers removed or another type of grind reduction.
