This is the issue with the game
I know I’m definitely not the first person to say this, and I won’t be the last, but this is one of the biggest issues in the game right now and it really kills the fun. I’ve been playing since 2021 and have over 2.5k hours. Dracula isn’t a killer I play much, only 1.4 hours—but I still know what I’m doing as a killer. I…

What is the power difference between Ghostface and Blight?
So for example, why is Ghostface considered a weak killer compared to Blight who is considered a strong killer? This might be a stupid question but it could lead to an interesting discussion which gives people a greater understanding to the killer power disparity.

Embracing the True Death of Horror in DBD 9.3.0 (Long post)
So, 9.3.0 is coming, and I've been reasonably vocal about my disdain for the changes. Who am I? Before we begin I want to clarify, this is completely from my perspective, and while I stand by my conclusion and don't use "it's my opinion" as a shield, I'm talking about a very subjective subject matter, so while I always try…

Issues with typing in chat and presets
SUMMARY: Typing in chat is bugged, once letters are typed you cannot backspace or delete text. I have only found this issue on the Survivor side, not Killer. Hitting Enter to change preset names also consistently changes the games mode to windowed if not already in windowed. PLATFORM: Steam/PC STEP BY STEP INSTRUCTIONS ON…

Killer Bots!
Something I want to do is improve as a Survivor in general but I can't do that in a controlled environment (not without other people). It would be awesome to have the ability to make Killer bots in Privates! It would work just like how Survivor bots are in privates. This obviously will take time to implement but I think it…

Make the game less survivor sided
Dbd is in such a bad state as is because well the game is so survivor sided you can't play anything other than S tier killers and S tier perk builds to actually win and as a ghostface main its so annoying I just want to play my character that I spent real money on I don't want to play blight or nurse so if the devs would…

I'm back after a long break and... My god.
So, I'm a killer main, about 60/40 (now It's more like 50/50 since queues are way too long for playing only killer). I've took a long break off the game, then I decided to play again lately (just 2v8 so I can be a chill guy). Yesterday I've decided to play 1v4 again. First map - One of the borgos - Got 2 kills, not bad, I…

Cross Progression Question

Suggestion to MatchMaking ban
Matchmaking ban is all find and dandy. I get it when people actually disconnect from the game match itself. But as I went to play a few minutes ago, I was kicked off the server twice because of bad internet. I can't switch internet services, and where I live. Service to even make phone calls are awful. I can't help it. I…

Survivor side adjustment
As more people post dicussion about how strong survivors are now (maybe strongest they ever been) here are my ideas of some adjustments: Overall: → Increase time to heal others from 16s to 24s → Increase time to heal self from 24s to 32s → Decrease repair speed by 0.1ch/s per each injured, hooked or dead survivor (thana…

I think Dead by Ghoul is the goal of the development.
I've seen a lot of discussion regarding the direction of the game, mostly negative So why the changes? I saw an idea being discussed and I agree with this idea. The current goal of development is to create Dead by Ghoul. the fact is balancing for 40 killers is a massive undertaking and usually fails hard. How do you have…

Add a feature to see what players were que'd together at the end of a match
A lot of competitive like games have it now a days main example being Counter Strike but its very much a factor that always ruins play sessions as a killer or survivor wondering if you ran into a swf or not

Victor does not affect the AFC gauge.

9.3.0 is stupidly survivor side
Don't get me wrong, camp, tunnel, and slug are annoying things, but does this elusive state make DBD stop being DBD and look like Fortnite? We already have several anti-tunnel and anti-slug perks, and the developers want to strengthen this even more? DH, sprint bursts, decisive strike... The nerf to the Cenobite is…

Add a Visual Indication a Skill-Check will Occur
Not everyone is using a headset or in a sound-focused environment, or know that they need it. Some people may have auditory impairments. Some may be chatting with friends, viewers, or have other auditory distractions around. Skill-checks are punishing: 9s of progress lost and halting progress for 3s from all survivors…

New Xenomorph Concept
I've been wanting to do this for awhile and have came up with a faithful concept to the Xenomorph that partly keeps its current design alive.

What nicknames do you call your killers?
Greetings DbD players, it's time for a new question! If I see a Hag in my game, I'd be like "It's Haggy". What about you? Do you have nicknames for your killers? Feel free to share.

Pyramid Head's Cages are Laughably Useless Now.
Pyramid head main here. I don't think cages are worth using anymore. They're basically glorified remote hooks from the anniversary event. I think they've been over-nerfed and I'll explain why. First off, no more loud noise notification when a survivor is saved from one. With experience this really isn't an issue. I know…

How are you doing in 2v8 with the new stats tracker?
I thought I'd share how i'm doing on killer since I'm seeing a lot of complaining about how bad it is for killers and how survivor sided it is lol: I mainly have played Dracula this iteration though but his hours dont match my huntress rn: he seems pretty broken so far in the mode lol How are you all doing?

Xenomorph chase theme
So, I'm one of the few players who wants to bring back the PTB version of the Xenomorph chase music. Many might object and say that the PTB version is incredibly annoying and has too much looping, which is partly true. But... The new chase music can also get boring with its simplicity, especially on a character like the…

Survivor slowdown bug vs Doctor (And other killers)
SUMMARY OF THE ISSUE: In or out of chase with the Doctor, his abilities cause all survivors in the terror radius to slow down drastically without the killer losing speed. This is not inclusive to just Doctor. I experience the same with Dredge in just chasing, Wesker when he uses his dash, and a few other killers. The…

Smile Killer Concept
Hi guys, the title is pretty self explanatory, I made a concept for fun for how the power of the smile entity would work in dbd.

Will the survivors get nerfed with gens?
When playing killer I struggle a lot because of the amount of pallets and how strong their perks are and the gens speed to much it's not a single chase without a gen done. I am a good player but it's impossible to win without doing a 3 gen and I am forced to tunnel and slug to get people of the gens. The solution for this…

How to win easy games as Survivor in 2025 with many Second chances NEW META
Hi, Use Dead Hard in combination with a Medkit and AHS + SA or another combination with SA such as Refi Serum in a chase, and you'll be super safe. Also use Windows Of Opp. and run from pallet to pallet.That's how I do it, and it works very well. Also use DS und Unbreakable :) This will be Horror for Killers 😁 Especially…

SBMM will never be effective in this game as long as match format is asymmetrical
The fact that you and your opponent are playing two different games means there is no way to directly measure your skill against your opponents in a fair manner. The only way SBMM will ever become effective is if the match format of dead by daylight were to change such that it were teams of 5 where each team had 1 killer…

Switch 2 Version please
please do a Switch 2 Version of DBD. The graphics on switch 2 are horrible and makes my eyes bleed every time like no killer in the game could do… also would be willing to pay 10 dollar or something like that for that just to prevent my eyes for more damage playing the game on the go

Let the game be INSANE!
Listen, we have to be really careful of "balancing" the game into a boring snoozefest. Consider: just let the game be INSANE! Sure, give survivors a whole bunch of insane tools and protections! Let them all get up from the ground! No more unhook notifications! But THEN, give Killers similarly awesome buffs! Give Nemmy more…

2v8 Bug - Seeing steam profiles of disconnected killers
SUMMARY OF THE ISSUE: - You are able to see the killer's profile when they disconnect in 2v8 - This works on Pc if their account is connected with steam - You are able to click on the right hand side on the name banner and get to their profile - Might happen in normal 1v4s too, haven't been able to check/confirm that tho…

Mushrooms
The krasue's infection should not be completely reset when hooked. It should be set on a cleansing timer. Meaning when the survivor is unhooked, it's as if they ate a mushroom and the timer started. The krasue should be allowed to hit this survivor to get the infection back up in one hit. Some may say that this is a…

FIxed generators not displaying the loud noise notification
SUMMARY OF THE ISSUE: When playing as either survivor or killer I don't see the black bubble whenever a generator gets fixed about 50% of the time, I still hear the noise and see the red arrow pointing though. This is annoying when playing as the killer as I can't know where the survivors who fixed the generator are.…

It's literally unplayable PLATFORM: ps5 STEP BY STEP INSTRUCTIONS ON HOW THE ISSUE OCCURED:…

2v8 keeps getting worse
In original Killers had unique abilities, like Hillbilly exposing Survivors, which actually made them different and encouraged unique synergies. That was replaced with 4 classes that give minor changes and work the same on each killer. Herbs were a fun feature that encouraged engaging with something else than just the…

Ghostface Reveal Sound Bug
SUMMARY OF THE ISSUE: At times when dodging a reveal, the entire sound file for the reveal will play. Afterward (for an indefinite amount of time) there will be no sound played to indicate you are being revealed, you will just suddenly be popped out of shroud with zero warning. Obviously, this is game-breaking to the…
