I dont understand matchmaking bp bonus
If the killer queue is 3 minutes, why does it have a 2.5x bp bonus? Shouldnt that mean they are lacking killers in queue, and therefore queue times should be short? yesterday, survivor had a 4x bonus with 2 minute queue times, but killer had a 5 second queue time with no bonus. Am I stupid? But shouldn't this be the other…

NEW KILLER CONCEPT (PLEASE BEHAVIOR)
New Killer Concept: The Metamorphosis The Metamorphosis is a psychological horror Killer, capable of infiltrating Survivor groups by mimicking their physical appearance. A victim of clandestine laboratory experiments, she punishes trust and rewards careful observation, creating a constant state of paranoia within the…

What goofy mistakes did you make when you were brand new to the game?
At this point, pretty much everyone here has a strong understanding of the game, but that wasn't always the case. We were all new once. I remember the first time I played this game in 2022 with my partner. SWF'd together and got into a match against Myers. He found me first and was just standing there. I thought he was…

exhaustion perks rework is needed
Sprint burst - now has 3 tokens, once used the perk will deactivate for rest of the trial Lithe - is activated when unhooked and deactivate once used Dramaturgy - is activated when unhooked and deactivate once used Dead hard - now activates once you are one hook from death, lower the endurance window from 0.5s to 0.25s…

Dear BHVR - Please and Kindly hear me out. ❤️
Feedback for Houndmaster. 😄 Too many times my dog 🐕 Mr Snugs while I love him, he pulls survivors into pallets AFTER we had changed the pull coordinates. Please revert the pull coordinates so he pulls back to the Houndmaster again. It’s super irritating and it doesn’t have to be 🙏🏼❤️🐕 At the very least if you don’t want to…

Why is The Spirit still designed around sound-only tracking despite the accessibility support featur
I would like to raise a concern about The Spirit. This killer is able to track survivors primarily through sound, which often makes chases feel like there is very little real mindgame involved from the survivor side. In many situations, it feels completely normal to go down very quickly because her power is simply too…

Is there a way to check your Report Ticket #?
I reported a player for using VPN to Lag-Switch survivors. Submitted video and photo evidence of me using the in-game report, and the type of non-sense that was going on as well as what's needed to show that it's an actual lag-switcher and not just some foreign player in the wrong lobby. I got an "update to ticket"…

Last Survivor Hook Grace Period
Allow 10 seconds for the last survivor to be on the hook before they are killed. I can't tell you how frustrating it is in solo queue trying to have fun with some perks. Recently, I unlocked deliverance and twice in the span of like 10 games I sacrificed myself to hook with deliverance to help my team but in both cases…

Bloodpoint bonuses make no sense!
Bloodpoint bonuses right now: Survivor: None Killer: 2,5x Survivor Queue estimated time 16 seconds (and it actually finds games faster than that) Killer Queue estimated time above 6 minutes (and it actually finds games slower than that) Just… why? How could you mess up such an easy thing? It makes no sense to incentive…

What status effect/ mechanic you would add to the game?
From time to time I post some mechanic and status effects ideas in hope that somehow it will impact Behaviour new perks in the future and also because I would love more interesting perks in the pool besides repetition of we already have in diffrent forms that is quite common. So thats why I wanted to ask. Do you have…

Reworking the Krasue
It has been quite some time since Krasue was added to the game, and like many new killers she went through the usual phase of community hate. A lot of players initially didn’t want to understand how her power works. However, after months of gameplay, people have figured out a very simple counterplay: just grab a mushroom…

A ridiculous idea on how to "fix" tunneling/gen rushing (hear me out)
In the current game, one gen is equivalent to about 2.5 hooks, lets round up to 3 for simplicity. Let's change the game to only a single generator can be worked on at a time. The moment the one chosen generator gets done, all gens are blocked until the killer secures 3 hooks. What do survivors do then you might ask? Well…

Seriously, how have blight and nurse not been nerfed yet?
These killers have completely dominated the meta for years, since they came out. It really seems like there is 0 care from Behavior at all to balance this game. Blight is a 115 ranged killer with an extremely forgiving and high movement power. Even if blight misses every dash, he still can easily catch up because he is…

Voice Communication (SWF) Creates an Unfair Information Advantage – We Need Game Design Solutions
Dead by Daylight was designed around limited survivor communication. In-game we only have gestures and basic interactions. This limitation is clearly part of the tension and asymmetry that defines the game. However, in practice, many survivor groups play as SWF using external voice communication (Discord and similar…

Wesker Changes
I am glad that Wesker is going to be receiving changes to make things about him basekit, similar to Oni, but I ask to PLEASEEEE PLEASEEE Remove that weird buffer between his dashes. It just makes him feel so sluggish to play This twitter post explains it best, https://x.com/Zyrav_/status/2026395189489684854?s=20 at around…

do you think the first is ridiculous because honestly i just give up
he's ridiculously op he comes out the ground which is a guarantee hit. listening to the clock literally does nothing for us. once you get hit with this red stuff around your name there is no way to even get it off of you every killer has a way to get there stuff off of you except him yet behavior doesn't think that's op is…

Badham still needs a rework
Badham already got reworked several times, but it's still the by far the most survivor sided map. The problem with Badham is it's a huge map with very strong loops. The large map size screws over most killers without mobility, and the strong loops waste even more time. I think the buildings having strong loops is fine, but…
-
Eruption should get a buff.
Eruption is a very overestimated perk. It takes so much time damaging multiple gens if you want to get the maximum value of the perk and still have to down a survivor to just get miserable 10% damage, which is only 9 charges. Most of the time you will damage only one gen because you don't have time to damage multiple gens.…

Request: Please shorten killer animations
In patch 6.1.0 BHVR decided to speed up many animations. These included 10% duration reductions of basic attacks, and basic-breaks for pallets and generators. I think it might be time for you to consider another round of animation duration reductions, including not just the above but also picking up survivors, dropping…

Please give boons some much needed love!!
Ever since circle of healing, boons we’re doomed to be bad. They simply don‘t justify the time spend blessing them and are too niche/bad at the same time. Their radius is too small, too long set up time, too easy to get rid off for killers and too bad effects. Here are some ideas on how to solve their problems. Boons…

The Oni: The Three Shards of Jigoku (New Secondary Power)
Hi everyone, I’ve been thinking about The Oni and how he currently feels a bit limited when not in Blood Fury. I wanted to propose a new secondary power inspired by Japanese folklore to give him more map pressure and unique interactions. Here is my concept for 'The Three Shards of Jigoku'—three unique Yokai spirits that…

How terribly bad this game is balanced
I’ve been playing video games since I could move my fingers. There is absolutely no argument on the planet that could prove your game is well balanced. This is most one sided game I’ve ever played. Not only is the killer unbalanced ,but they are SEVERELY BROKEN. I’ve put countless hours into this game and the ONLY time we…

Request: 120 FPS / 120 Hz Performance Mode for PS5 Pro (and ideally PS5) + fix the cubic skin textur
Hello Behaviour, I wanted to make a suggestion regarding Dead by Daylight on PlayStation, mainly for PS5 Pro. I really think a 120 FPS / 120 Hz Performance Mode would be a great addition for PS5 Pro, and ideally for standard PS5 too if it’s possible. Dead by Daylight is a game where smoothness and responsiveness matter a…

Skull Merchant Rework
In terms of the community stream for the 9.3.0 PTB: If you want to scrap the rework for the Skull Merchant then revert the nerfs she got. You knowingly nerfed her BECAUSE she would be reworked. Its really unfair towards the Skull Merchant players and its getting more andmore obvious that she did not need the nerfs in the…

Rank
The new way of ranking in DBD (silver, gold, iris…) is starting to really piss me of. Before if u did good you were going up, bad down and if u were doing ok you stayed. Like that you could really know your level and now the MMR is a mess. Change it back or do something else because i'm really tired of pairing with players…

Killers should not be balanced according to statistics. Statistically, the Nurse is average, but she
I have 7k hours of Dead by Daylight, I've had my mono oni, mono spirit, mono surv days, I play with all the killers. To this day, I don't understand what Behavior is waiting for to nerf Blight and Kaneki. These two killers are absurdly strong when played by someone who masters them due to their mobility. Blight hitting the…

About some overpowered killers
Killers like The Blight, The Nurse, Kaneki, and Rin Yamaoka (The Spirit) clearly have extremely strong abilities. Is their strength balanced with voice chat (SWF) groups in mind? I usually play solo, and when I go against these killers, it often ends up feeling like they just dominate the match. That’s why I’ve been…

What has BHVR done???
so I took a long break from dbd. I was on a two month break before Springtrap, and then played him for a handful of games and haven’t touched dbd since….until recently. As in one day. And every game is a trash heap dumpster fire of bullshit. As a killer all the survivors I get anymore all just bring gen speed builds and…

The Bleak Killer Experience & Why I want A New Game Mode | | Entirely New Game
I've noticed a bit of a negative and repetitive gameplay loop both as survivor and killer. If the killer decides to tunnel, and does so successfully, it will force the team to sacrifice themselves to protect the tunneled survivor. If the killer has mobility powers with gen regression perks, it's basically game over. If the…

Day 17 of the Krasue arc
Prestige 12 has been achieved and Im gonna be honest I genuinely didn’t think i would enjoy playing as Krasue as much as I am but Im having fun so who really cares. Another update at prestige 13. Also I’m thinking about doing a poll for who Im playing next at prestige 19.

Head On should be reverted
With Patch 9.0.0 BHVR changed how the AFK crow system works. Which also directly or indirectly (not sure if this was an intentional change. Hopefully it wasn't) buffed Head On to work even though you have AFK crows on you. Before 9.0.0 if you get a single afk crow you no longer would be able to use head on. Which makes…

Every Killer Adapted Into Dungeons and Dragons 5th Edition
A while ago I started a project of adapting every killer in DBD into D&D 5e, and I have finally completed. I took creative liberties with some things, because some abilities don't really adapt directly into 5e, due to mechanics not shared by both of them. Some values were also adjusted to different numbers, cause while 1…

Dead by Daylight Killers Converted to D&D 5e
A while ago, I stumbled across a post made by a user named Chordyceps that began in April of 2022. This user shared their vision of the Killers in a 5e format, where players face against these threats and have a chance to fight back. Recently, they have gone quiet. I would like to hold the torch of continuing the work they…

Fun Interactions!
Back at it again with a discussion thread to fuel why we love this game. Stop by, take a seat, and have a break from balance discussions for a moment. I think micro-moments in this game are one of the main things that keeps people coming back. There is fun in the macro game, juggling and balancing multiple things,…

Auto Recovery Toggle
Personally, I do not like the automatic recovery feature that was just added. I feel it dumbs down the game and reduces player agency. Please consider adding a toggle in the settings to remove it.

Ghoul shouldn't lock you in place when attacking you
The actual attack cooldown can be shortened such that the the distance is the exact same. but just forcing the survivor to just sit there and do nothing for 2 seconds feels horrible. Its such a small change and has very little actual gameplay impact but would make the killer feel so much better to play against. It would…

In need of new mechanic/ status effects part 4
New Status Effect for Generators: Unstable Information ( appearing as active status effect ) about this status effect is visible to survivors when they start repairing a generator affected by it.

My opinion from both survivor and killer POV
Hi, I have been playing since 2018 both killer and survivor, and with recent updates is really boring and really predictable. The maps are too small and very limited due to gens being too close together to the point the exit gates are beside eachother and are neighbours and the maps and too bright so it loses its horror…

Betahub bug reports suggestion

Imagin if they remastered the Naughty Bear Games.
The first Naughty Bear game was my child and I played it for hours. I would love them to add a Multi-player mode where One player is Naughty Bear and the others are The Other Bears trying to survive and take down Naughty Bear. So you can experience the Other Bears POV of what Naughty Bear does. That would be so fun if they…
