Does 2V8 have a Wesker problem?
If there is a 2V8 Killer poster boy, it's probably Wesker. It's not an exaggeration to say he is in at least 50% of my 2V8 games. And I'll be honest here and get this out of the way, I intensely dislike this Killer and I always have. There's nothing BHVR could really do to make him more enjoyable for me to face except…

My takes for this game after playing for 100 hours
I play both sides with a 60/40 split killer sided sense killers have diffrent play style while survivor is just well all the same just different skins. This game can be fun but more times than not its just frustrating and mainly on killer. the toxicity in the game is next level and nearly always comes from survivors i have…

Killers for 2v8
Hello, I would like to suggest skull merchant in 2v8. I know she's a less played killer and I'm mostly saying this as she is my favorite, but I think there is a lot of potential with killers she can pair with. I understand many may see skull merchant in 2v8 as unbalanced but I really think she could work. This would also…

2v8 Suggestions
Hello hello! I truly enjoy playing both sides equally during 2v8, but killer really needs more love. So here are my suggestions to make it more fun for them. Gen Blocking/Regression - I think basekit Deadlock (blocks two gens instead of one), Corrupt Intervention, or something would be incredibly helpful. Split the lobbies…

Make the killer the power role again
Ive been playing this game for a good while now and i watched you guys turn the killer role from a power role too being a clown in a circus. You guys need too sit down for one moment and ACTUALLY play a game of killer and i mean a REAL GAME with GOOD survivors for you guys too understand where everyone is talking about how…

Pain Resonance
i lowkey hate using this perk, i dont feel satisfied using it, and barely feel the value. could just be me, i prefer to use perks like Eruption, Surge, Pop Goes The Weasle. i feel its a little restricting, what are your thoughts on it

This is the worst anniversary reveals to date
No hype, no excitement, just a bunch of random numbers. This is them trying to bait people into engagement and failed. It will, however, start another divide between players and/or devs per usual. It will only lead to unnecessary disappointment, hatred and doubt. If it's an original chapter or a licensed chapter not big…

Regular scene partner users, Is the perk bugged?
recently started playing scream Lisa again but had two matches now where something odd happens . scene partner was not playing the animation when screaming I would scream but have no animation attracted to the scream. This lead to my item not being usable until I was hooked. (was using flashlights both times and right…

Character - Banner/Badge Preset Setup
Just as you would normally change your banner or badge when playing a different dedicated survivor or killer, this preset button would allow you to keep that same banner/badge for that specific character. For example, if you prestige that character, you could automatically use the prestige badge reward on them if it was…

judgements perks are...?
what do we think about the new killers perks ideas so far. i generally feel the Hex perk is absolutely useless, and look when u compare the killer perks to the survivor perks…killer might be absolutely done for at this point. i do however like the gen kick perk from what i saw

Killers could really use a Spring Cleaning 🧹
I’d really love to see killers get a bit more love and attention in a future update (pretty please). The last update just didn’t feel like it had enough bandwidth dedicated to proper killer balance and power adjustments like a lot of us were hoping for after the livestream. A lot of killers, especially the really outdated…

Killer Generator Regression Overhaul
Now I don’t mind the killer regression we have now a TON, but I’d love to see it get reworked, since the way it works now with any gen regression counting together globally (Kicks AND perks) the whole trial is really bad for killers like Trapper and others who require setup at the start of the game. So, to fix it! Here’s…

Pig NEEDS to stop getting nerfed and Buff Doctor
Pig used to be honestly one of the best killers for closing chases quickly but ever since your cry baby survivor community complained ITS way different now. Pig on Gideon meat plant which IS its self titled map is brutal… Your Rush Ability pretty much becomes useless since there’s a pallet every 5 meters and terrible…

Suggestion to buff Trapper
What if, after charging for 60s, Trapper could use a secondary ability where you can look at any trap on the map, select a trap with a visual reticle (like Freddy's generator teleport), and have the trap teleport from its location directly into Trapper's inventory? Does this sound balanced? Is it too complicated for new…

View of chucky
I am someone who struggles with eye sight and i find it completely absurd that chucky is a killer thats about a foot tall meaning i cant see him normally when im looping . I know this means that youd abandon the style of chucky as a killer being a doll but where was that consideration when the myers rework happened (in the…

Krasue Buff
Feel free to disagree with me on these changes - these are just my opinion. So I just got Krasue and while I don't think that I'm good with her yet, my first impressions are that her infection is essentially worse Plague in exchange for fast mobility. Main sticking point is her infection going away on hook, forcing me to…

Reworking No Quarter to be actually Usable
Issues with the perk: This perk requires way to many things to go right to see any value for it (survivors actually self-healing, survivors failing the skill check, survivors not having increased heal speed.) This perk could become instantly decent by just removing the self heal condition, but only by combining it with…

Blight still has 2 core issues that make him way too strong
Blight got 2 well-deserved nerfs (he's still the 2nd best killer), but there are 2 other things that should be changed: His movement speed add-ons are extremely overtuned. If you combine them (like 95% of Blights), you gain 5% speed for each consecutive rush (up to 20%!). That's more than a fully stacked PWYF for doing…

Sadako and Freddy mains
it might just be me but i like rarely see Freddy or Onryo anymore, its kinda sad. I love the killers and im curious as to what happened. i know they are weaker killers, but its kinda weird when i used to see them a lot

Developer Hypocrisy: Since Wesker techs were a bug, when are yall gonna nerf heal tech?
Point tech and heal tech remain untouched, yet killer power techs like hug tech and flicks are being removed. Survivor techs like heal techs are abused making the already strong survivor endgame even stronger. How come this is not being addressed?

2v8 Escapist is another Major Problem
Its no hot take to say that Escapist class is the most OP of all the classes giving a AOE sprint burst to all Survivors at a press of a button I think this class needs to be reverted to how it was before or we can rework it to something more fair Rework ideas Survivors with the class now gain Finesse and resilience…

Krasue is not healthy for the game at the top level
I would love to see any dev that works in dbd play against this killer and show me any types of counterplay. A killer needing comms to be tolerable to face is not healthy for the game. Please nerf this killer. It’s extremely boring and dull going against the auto-aim spit too.

If you could pick any killer to be in dbd, who would you choose?
I'm not asking for actual debates or what characters you want from a game standpoint I'm just asking: you get free reign to pick any character and put them in. Who are you choosing? Me personally, I have a few answers Marble hornets: id LOVE to see any slenderverse character, marble hornets being the best answer. Having…

My problems with Slenderman as the Anniversary Chapter
Let me preface by saying: Slenderman (specifically the operator from Marble Hornets) is my dream chapter in dbd. He'd be a good fit for the game, the community wants him, hell, it's literally my name. Getting slender in dbd would be a total dream come true, not just for me, but also for my older brother, who got me into…

Traps too close to 2v8 cages
I think this should not be possible. Another player was able to unhook me., but got caught in the trap as soon as my feet hit the ground. If she had cleared the trap, I wouldn't have survived. I 1v4 you can't be as close to a hook, not remotely. Is this intended?
-
Why do high prestige level survivors always refuse to play the game?
I've lost count of the number of matches with P40+ survivors will crouch everywhere, not do generators, not unhook anyone, try to harass the killer, lead the killer to the rest of their team, or just generally refuse to partake in actual survivor goals. Every time I get one of those matches, the end game always shows P40s…

Play while you wait” — the 1v4 situation has become a major problem
People are abusing the new 1v4 mechanic. I often end up in matches with TTV, and when I check the VOD, they pair up as Killers and use “Play while you wait” to find Killer matches faster. The problem is that when they start a survivor match, they either go AFK or drop all the pallets to end the match faster so they can…

My Proposal on Why Artist Would be Suitable for 2v8
Hello! I made this a few days ago and figured I should share this here aswell! I am an Artist main, so I'm strongly advocating for her to come to 2v8, I made this in hopes someone from the Dev team might see this and take some of the points I made into consideration! I tried to fit EVERYTHING into this one image, so I…

2v8, I’d like the Killer’s options to be filtered by character type rather than class selection.
When two of the charging-type enemies—Wesker, Hillbilly, and Bright—appear together, the survivors can’t perform repairs properly. This ruins the essence of the 2v8 event. Wesker, in particular, is far too powerful for this event. His performance is so frustrating that I’d almost want them to remove either him or Nemesis.…

Revamp Gestures to Bridge the Solo Queue-SWF Gap
It's no secret that playing as a SWF with the ability to communicate offers a significant benefit compared to solo queue teams, who are only able to coordinate indirectly through the use of the in-game HUD and intuition of other players' behaviour. This might be enough for a well-matched, competent team of solo Survivors…

2v8 is getting boring, unfun and in need of a major shake up
I want to start this discussion by saying that 2v8 is a fantastic addition to dbd. Having a game mode like this is really healthy for the game and is fun when it comes around. However; over the last few iterations of 2v8, its begun to become way too monotonous and unbalanced in the worst ways. On the killer side we…

Hand-Eye Coordination Achievement Is Out Of Your Control To Get
Now I know most players don't care about achievements, but ever since I've been hunting achievements, I've found that the Hand-Eye Coordination Achievement (where you channel and escape with a Vecna Limited Item) is actually the most difficult achievement to get and I'm not saying that because I don't have the achievement,…

Ghoul only received nerfs since his release and did not receive any buffs to compensate, he is incredibly easy to loop now.
