Can Killers See Gen Traps?
Apart from seeing the animation of a survivor installing a wire tap or blast mine trap on a generator, are there other ways a killer knows if a gen has been trapped or not before kicking it?

Knight issues
Dear Dead By Daylight. I’m having a serious issue, not with gameplay, or technical issues but with a character from the game. Knight. Knight is a very poorly made character. Everyday I go on Dead By Daylight and expect fun and exciting gameplay, and usually it lives up to the expectations, but then there are the days where…

Feedback Regarding Game Stability and Mechanics
To the Dead by Daylight Development Team, As dedicated players with a deep investment in your game, my colleague and I are reaching out to share a comprehensive list of critical issues and strategic suggestions. Our perspective is rooted in extensive experience: I have personally logged 7,800 hours in the Fog, while my…

We need to be able to change killer after readying up.
Readying in a killer lobby and waiting to go to the next lobby. Why are we unable to change killer? Even after coming to the pre game lobby. We are unable to change killer. Before, we could change killer after readying up at any time. No problems. We need this back asap! This irretates me a lot tbh. Plus we could switch…

Rebalancing Hillbilly's Chainsaw
This has been a minor gripe I've had with this killer for a while: Every billy I've played against only uses the chainsaw and nothing but the chainsaw. What this results in is the match either being a loss because there really is no reason to heal against him when he can instadown you, or the billy player rage quits…

User Version MisMatch
I play Dead By Daylight on Switch ( I know, how filthy ) and I was trying to play with one of my mates that is on Playstation 4 and it kept giving us User Version MisMatch which was when I realized that he is on 9.5.1 yet I am not, I tried my best to do everything to update it but it wouldn't work, it won't let me; is this…

Nintendo Switch 2
I understand there are no plans on releasing a Switch 2 update for Dead by Daylight, but I really hope BHVR will reconsider soon. The Switch player base might not be big, but there’s potential to grow this community with a decent port of the game. It’s unrealistic to expect Switch owners to play DBD, when there’s really…

[21+][NA] Looking for chill friends
First time posting here, so I'm giving it a shot. I would love to meet some DBD friends who are around my age (F, 25) and have chill vibes. I've been playing the game for upcoming 3 years, and I play casually. Haven't dwelled into the comp scene so please don't expect me to be perfect. I don't mind what platform you're on,…

Looking for 18+ women who aren’t offensive
Hello! I have two friends who want to play 2v8 with but we want a full squad. Please don’t be offensive in language. We’re just looking for someone easy going and likes to play the game. We have discord and we’re all women too.

Being able to specify items you prefer in the bloodweb
I would love to be able to preset preferred items in the blood web so i dont have to scan it for specific things that I'm looking for. I work on trophies on playstion so a lot of the time I'm playing specific builds or using certain items. It would just make life so much easier to auto spend for 50 levels knowing it will…

A hypothetical question regarding anti-slug
Assuming that an anti-slug was ever implemented into dbd via basekit unbreakable at maybe half bleed out, to not ignore the complaints about gens going to fast, what if the trade off was a basekit Deadlock for killers. After every gen, no conditions have to be met the entity just blocked the next most progressed gen for…

Diminishing Returns indication
Would anyone else like it if your loadout told you what perks were being affected by diminishing returns? (and maybe even better, how much your percentages will be affected) No indication makes this system hard to wrap my head around and I can't imagine this is too friendly for new players who likely won't even know of the…

What do you think of current Freddy Krueger?
Greetings, friends of the Fog! I hope this discussion finds you doing well. So, if you are familiar with my posts, you know that Freddy Krueger is a character that means a lot to me. If you aren't, however, allow me to quickly give you some context: Freddy Krueger has been my main killer in DBD from the day I started…

SUPERNATURAL X DBD
Please can we try get a supernatural chapter in the game it would fit so so so well I’m surprised it hasn’t happened already! I think so much could be done the themes of dbd and spn fit so well could be a wicked chapter!!

Stop with the 2v8 nonsense
This mode is only popular for ultra casual players and hurts the game in many ways : awful killers' queue time in 1v4 (and 2v8) awful matchmaking for 3 weeks in 1v4 It makes the game unplayable on the killer side, it is not acceptable in 2026 to have to deal with 10+ minutes queue times the whole day. Why do you keep…

Would you like a Mortal Kombat collab?
Mortal Kombat is my favourite video game franchise and I would absolutely love for it to eventually make its way over into DBD. Would you be here for a MK collab and if so, how would you want it to be implemented? Full chapter or something else?

Left 4 Dead X DBD Wave 2?
i know left 4 dead and dbd already had a collab years ago but why was it only bill added and nobody else…why not add all the characters as legendary outfits for bill? would love to see louis, zoey, francis, rochelle, coach, ellis & nick in the fog with bill <3 i know it’ll probably never happen but one can only hope! i…

Add Houndmaster to 2v8
She would be a great teammate; she can use her tracking power to find survivors with Killer Instinct and mark them with Houndsense, which inflicts Deep Wound if they are hit by you or a teammate. Survivors can't hide easily because Houndsense marks them in red. Your teammates can follow the trail to gain speed or even…

Jason vs Darth Vader
So there's been a commotion lately about who the anniversary Killer will be Jason Voorhees or Darth Vader and the two sides have been arguing about if they will or belong in dbd Personally I don't mind if both come to DBD what do y'all think?

Round Robin Mode
i think it would be cool to have a mode that's like round robin where five people can queue and one of them is chosen to be the killer either at random or it cycles through. would be good for friends who want to play together and still work towards quests/tomes/etc. which can be very hard in solo queue since not everyone…

Killer Concept: The Starlet
The power is a jack-of-all-trades. She has a projectile but with a sizeable cooldown, so missing does punish her. The gameplay loop is successful hit = creates TP spot, get downs and use abilities, fill meter to start a chase on anyone you'd like with them being Exposed. The TP would be more like Freddy's so it's…

Future 2v8's
So BHVR has put out a survey recently about the latest 2v8 asking specific questions about it, such as "What Killer would you NOT want to see in 2v8?". As well as in their question "What Killer would you like to see in 2v8", there's a check box for "No new Killers added". Not to mention Survivors want Oni removed after the…

Unknown is better! But it still needs more!
Hi! Hope everyone is doing fine! I'm currently testing the Unknown after the buffs and he feels much better to play as! I've thought the buffs wouldn't be noticeable, but they are. The buffer on Weakened dispell reduced to 0,75s makes real difference - its funny how now bots are better than some players at dispelling,…

Remove Matchmaking Penalty For Killers.
This needs to be a thing. The amount of hackers in this game is running rampant. I have a long matchmaking penalty for being forced to DC from hackers holding me hostage IN 3 STRAIGHT GAMES. This is absolute garbage. Survivor penalties make sense because you're sabotaging your team. For killer, the only one getting harmed…

New killer idea: Stormbringer
New killer consept! This killer have the ability to control a storm that will pull Survivors with the wind, causes survivors Hindered or Haste. Depending on which direction the wind Blows. The killer can change the wind from one direction to another, with a longer cooldown. The killer can lounge a Burst of Blow from…

I hope more countries are allowed to enter the cosmetic contest this year
As an Australian I would love to enter but I never can as we are always excluded :( With it being the 10 year anniversary this year, wouldn’t it be nice to let more people enter by making the contest available to more people? Make it the biggest one yet! Please!!

Judgement Power Thoughts (SIN)
I want to say that I like the idea behind sin, where toxic gameplay is punished in match by de-buffs, however the devs had this idea and its perfect to try to stop toxicity from both sides of the match (Surv and Killer) However I think they fumbled with it only effecting Survs, yes there is toxic Survs but there is also…

Symbol and full button mapping support for the new Steam Controller.

Server disconnects
When you're disconnected from the server, the game recognizes that it isn't an intentional DC. However, any progress made toward challenges, experience, etc. is nullified as if it never happened. If this information is catalogued, we should be able to keep it. As is, server disconnects are common and it ends up wasting a…

Bringing Jack Krauser to DBD
I am doing a re-run on RE4R remaster and I would like to see a legendary skin for the Mastermind ( Albert Wesker).The skin I would like to see is Major Jack Krauser. They have pretty similar powers in the game and It would be really nice. I really like Krauser and it would be a good addition to DBD.

Why do we even have map offerings anymore?
Like seriously just remove them at this point. 20% chance is absolutely pointless, if it was 50 they might be worth using. But individual map offerings are so rare that you could easily waste all of the ones you have on a low prestige character and never even see the map you want to play. They were never a particularly…

Glen Legendary Skin for Chucky
With the success of the chucky killer, I'd like to propose a new legendary skin for him similar to Tiffany Valentine, to complete the full family i think chuckys child Glen from the movie "Seed of Chucky". Glen is a fan-favourite horror icon and i think its only right if he was added to the game along side his parents.…

New game tutorial
So basically the main problem why new players struggle so much is the tutorial that sucks, so here's my proposal how to improve it. 1st, when you click on the tutorial for a particular side, it'll open a window with some sort of lessens that will be split in cathegories (basic, intermediate, advanced). Each should grant…

Attack Titan Trapper Skin
I wanted to know if the Attack Titan Trapper Skin would get any added SFX, Voice-lines, Mori or really anything that makes it worthy of a legendary skin at some point? Im sure there are many AOT fans super disappointed by this skin, just like me because of how it barely feels like a legendary skin. I understand that it was…

Please stop healing under hook unless you have resurgence or we’ll make it, you’re just asking to get caught healing and either give the killer a bunch of pressure or the easiest tunnel of his life. Run away from the hook and then heal please 🙏

Feedback surrounding this week's ban wave
I want to preface this by saying as per the Forum Rules, this is not a post about about a specific person’s ban, nor do I need to appeal a game ban.

Tunneling
Dead by Daylight needs to do something about the tunneling. This is making me not want to play as much as i used to anymore. I do stream this game and i have some many videos of killers just not going for anyone but me in 2v8, and normal game modes. These type of killers need to be punished somehow.

Should 2v8 be put to rest for now?
Before i start this topic i will say i am not the biggest 2v8 fan and i have only played survivor and dont want to que with a random killer player. When it was announced that 2v8 was coming back again, i will say i was not really that hyped for it to be brought back so soon. The art says it is attack on titan themed, but…

Apparently Kaneki Players have migrated to Ghost Face as the new 0 Effort Killer.
Drop-Leg Knife Sheath + Outdoor Security Camera & See How They Run/Play with your Food + Coup de Grace, You can't realistically loop this unless you are right next to a Strong Pallet.

can we possibly nerf the amount of zombies that spawn for nemesis in 2 v 8?
I know the counter play is using scout but seriously the amount of zombies that keep spawning after scout and flash lighting them is a lot. it needs to be toned down a bit in my opinion but i don't know what the community thinks.

Fruits of your Labor will be the next Fast Track
Because Fruits of your Labor is a ramp up perk its boosts get pretty insane very quickly. This perk (unless the numbers get nerfed) is a 20->40->60->80->100% healing progress combined with (presumably) a 5->10->15->20->25% haste for 2 seconds. (and even the 5 gen effect is basically Adrenaline with 25% worse haste, no…

2v8 Bug with Cages
Someone attempted to unhook me, then got downed by a killer. Then it glitched and didn't count and no one could get me off hook so I had to die on hook.
