Dedicated Servers
We really need dedicated servers, the killer being the host can be a bit...annoying. I had games in DBD where the killer would lag to my position or even a survivor and also getting hit behind trees, walls etc.
Please and thank you.

I agree, dedicated servers would help this game so much. I was fortunate enough to play in the Deathgarden alpha and having those server connections just made such a huge difference in my opinion.
Ways it would help:
- Faster matchmaking
- Global matchmaking
- More stable connections with less lag
- Fewer accidental disconnections due to internet connection
- Less lag makes for a fairer game for both sides (no teleporting survivors and no lag-switching)
I know right now we have a ping indicator but I hope the DBD devs will be able to see the success that dedicated servers are going to help bring to their sister game and bring it to this one. Would be an amazing step to take.

A lot of problems and issues could get solved with dedicated servers. Dunno why Deathgarden is getting them but DBD not.

Not to mention the killers who intentionally stream videos or download things in the background to make the survivors lag.
I would assume that the reason DBD doesn't have dedicated servers is financial, because I can't see any other explanation. Having killers host games is like having cost-free regional servers. Perhaps Deathgarden has a bigger budget.

I would really really like to see this happen. The reason Cheaters are rampant is due to the fact that it's P2P, with the dedicated server all lag switching, cheats, progression hacks will be all dead. No one will be able to cheat anymore
For Honor started out as P2P, it has dedicated servers now, I don't see why it's impossible for Dead by Daylight

Dedicated server are inded really needed, not only for lag sake but also for security reason.
You have no idea how ######### easy it is to get a killer IP adresse and DOS/DDOS them0 -
same for me, this game is needed for dedicated server, because but always in the night whose I play, you see that almost all the killers who have a good connection, after when i enter the game, these killers lagg to be disgusting.
I hope that with dedicated servers will improve the game.2 -
It would be lovely if Behavior would support they're loyal fan base with Dedicated servers. Instead of launching a new ip with them. It's kind of a middle finger to us and shows where our community stands to them.
