Season's greetings from the Fog!
It's been one heck of a year for Dead by Daylight and we're so happy to have been able to share it with all of you! Whether you were serving up detailed feedback to our Developer Updates and Patch Notes, embracing the silly side of the Trials with your screenshotting skills, proving your trivia chops, or anything in between, the unbridled passion you've brought to the Dead by Daylight community on the forums and beyond means the world to us.
As the year comes to a close, we wanted to highlight a few members of this community who have gone above and beyond with their constructive feedback and support for the community as a whole. A huge forums THANK YOU goes out to:
As a lil' show of appreciation, we'll be sharing Auric Cells codes with these contributors, so if you see your username, keep an eye out for a direct message from our team today.
But back to our regularly scheduled THANK YOUing, many of the things we all love about Dead by Daylight have come about as a direct result of community feedback, and the forums are an essential part of making this happen! Every single day, we dig into the Feedback and Issues section – among many others! – to ensure your voices are being shared with the wider dev team. While things can move fast online, we see your contributions and it's important to us that they're shared with the appropriate folks. So seriously, thank you! You're the best community a team full of horror fans could ask for.
We're beyond excited to dive into everything 2025 has in store for Dead by Daylight and can't wait to have you along for the ride!
Until next time and happy holidays,
The Dead by Daylight team

Kinda sad now, but that reward is honestly a very cool thing.

Seems like I chose the wrong year to be more busy with other stuff 🫣
cant say these 3 woudnt deserve it though so thats nice and it wouldnt be reasonable to expect the top 50 or so members to get auric cell rewards as these still count as money that can be used for licensed stuff

Truly, our appreciation goes out to everyone in the community and we don't want anyone to feel left out of this.
Just in case you haven't seen it, we shared a code earlier today (IFLOOKSCOULDCHILL) that grants the Frosty Eyes Cosmetics from past years when redeemed in-game. But that's not all! As a little additional spoiler, we'll be sharing another community-wide code on our social channels a little later today, so keep an eye out for that.

Wow - not showing MMR with the reasoning it could cause an Elite - but doing this? ^^
Those three deserve it - no questioning - as would have some others too.. But well..
And now keep the frosty eyes and bring your new Killer back into the Event - thanks.

is the fog in the room with us?

when looking at the current unbalanced and killer sided state of the game these three people did not do a good job…

Come now, you know damn well these three don't have the ultimate say in what BHVR does.

I am beyond myself with gratitude. 💐💐💐
Sincerely, I love horror. I love this game. And I love this community. I’ve always found a home in the horror genre- I’m sure many of us can relate. For one reason or another we are all here enjoying this game together.
@TheSingularity (pre and post 😊)
@C3Tooth We all miss you
@CountOfTheFog 😊😄💐
@Shroompy 😊😄💐
+ Everyone else I didn’t list!!! 💐💐💐
I’m a huge fan of being the change you want to see. The above people have demonstrated a willingness to be that change while remaining their authentic selves. I see Dbd reflected in every single person listed and on this forum. These people will give you the best that they have to offer. Why not match that passion and be the change you want the dbd community to become? Why not? It can happen. They can help you get there.
I wanted to thank @For_The_People for being the first person from the forums that I’ve ever played Dbd with. He is a very sweet person who will give you his time of day in earnest if you need him to. He’s one of the prime examples of politeness in this community. Thank you for being a positive force in the community. 😊😊😊
Lastly I need to thank @solarjin1 . What can I say? When you meet a friend that gets you, you both just know it. Her courage to be funny and humorous is so infectious. She told me that the small pallet in rpd was the most op pallet. I was so naive of game knowledge that I believed her! LMAO! After that I realized that it was anything goes when it came to humor with her. I’m at my best when I can be silly. Solarjin1 is that friend who brings out the best in me. Thank you Solarjin1 for all the laughs and for the laughs to come 😂 I’m going to be collecting🤣🤣🤣
None of this would be possible if we didn’t have a phenomenal community team here to support us discussing this twisted hobby we all have. Thank you again to everyone at Bhvr for putting your hearts and souls (ha!) into everything that is Dbd.
They say you attract more flies with honey than with vinegar…
Let’s just use blood instead 🩸😈🩸
Happy Holidays everyone, I hope everyone stays safe and has a wonderful New Years 😊🎉

Completely agree and congrats you guys! But I really think @UndeddJester should be 4th, he did a lot of great posts with suggestions, thought and reflections.
Glad to be in this list, thank you for the kind words! It's mutual! <3

Cheers.
Ideally BHVR would have honoured and highlighted a larger group of regular forum contributors, and be it with a smaller little thank-you (some custom badge or charm or 500 cells or whatnot), but it's cool that you took it upon yourself to do so!
I'll say that given their approach of highlighting a select few members here, I'm really surprised @jesterkind is not among them. You probably couldn't wish for a more level-headed, constructive and debate-happy regular poster on your forums. That has been my impression anyway.
I'll also leave a word of appreciation for @Peanits, who is no longer a community manager as of this year and hopefully more directly involved with the game's development now. I hope whoever takes his spot of senior community manager will be at least comparably as competent as he was. Much as I can at times disagree or be disgruntled with BHVR's development direction and cycle for the game, it is after all a game and all in good fun, and as such any positives there are to it I appreciate, and the negatives don't weigh nearly as much (or I wouldn't be playing or let alone contributing here still). With someone like Peanits at the helm of community relations, I had always had the feeling that there was at least a decent amount of listening-to, understanding and critically and intellectually engaging with community discussions happening.
The best gift for us forum dwellers of course would be to see more inclusion of forum feedback and more dev interaction on the forums going forward. There has been a notable uptick in dev activity on the subreddit, whereas the forums can appear neglected by comparison. I suspect this also is in no small part due to Peanits' departure from his role. Hopefully more actual discussion (or any type of communication) between the team and us players can happen in the forum's future.
Happy holidays and a merry start into the new year to all. While the world is darkening, I hope people can find joy in things like this little horror game of ours.

Bless your heart. That's such a lovely post.
Merry Christmas to you and the rest of the wonderful people in this community.

I was not expecting to be mentioned, thank you so much!
You more than deserve the praise you've been given! Thank you for helping make the forum (and by extension the DBD community as a whole) a better place!

I have no idea who the other two people are i only see the guy you have pinned to the top lol
1 -
Aww, thank you! That's such a lovely thing to say.
Spend those well earned Auric Cells wisely, you guys.
I hope everyone here enjoys plenty of fun snowskull fights and snowman jump scares for the rest of the festive period. Appreciate all of you. After all, even if we don't always agree as a community, we're all here because we love this game and we want the best for it.

Very much deserved! You guys have always been such positive entities in these forums, it's always been a joy conversing with you and reading your posts...
Wait a minute... Entities!?? Now it makes sense... Seriously though congrats!
*kicks floor * Shucks... thank you... appreciate that very much, all warm and fuzzy over here. ☺️
It's been a joy being a part of this community, even if I am a Skull Merchant baby (May 2023!). There are some truly brilliant and talented minds to debate and learn from in these forums, and its great to see the passion people still have for this crazy little horror showcase tag game 🤘😁🤘
Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays, and much love all! Raising a glass your way! 🥳🥳🥳
