Killer VS Survivor game balance
I don't know if I'm alone in this, if it's just how I typically play or when and where I play from but I prefer playing killer and often play Survivor with friends and family as well as watch friends play both Survivor and Killer and I've noticed a shift as of late towards more killer advantageous game play. I've also…

Nurse balanace
The Nurse can correct mistakes by spending tokens on her blink. If she misses, she can simply blink again to reposition and get close enough to land a hit. This alone is incredibly powerful - few other killers have anything comparable. On top of that, she has a second form of error correction: if she overcharges her blink,…

Abandon feature for killers
As survivor i can abandon when the killer is wasting my time after all hope of escaping is gone. So why when all the survivors are standing in exit is there not a killer abandon feature? This is a clear double standard and there is viable reason that is isn't here yet.

Blight Nerfs Confirmed
Today on the live stream Devs confirmed Blight will be receiving these nerfs. Devs are actually listening to Community feedback and Momos 2k Winstreak and this is great step towards a healthier DBD

Why do people act like Dracula isn't crazy overpowered?
I won't say the character as a whole I guess.. The changing between forms has no penalty, and the wolf form is crazy strong… He is honestly probably my most hated killer to go against. They didn't even make his wolf form count as a secondary hit? Just seems ridiculous.
-
Krasue
I'm just getting back to this game (haha) and every time I'm facing the Krasue I have no idea what to do. It seems like she can just catch up with you immediately in her head form, and if you try to avoid getting hit by her spit, it seems almost impossible unless you're in an indoor map. You can't even pick up the…

Houndmaster needs to be kill switched
The houndmaster dog mid-match went invisible, game was still playing but couldn't move, frozen then as soon as the killer hits you it's like the game resume play

Self care buff ?
I was wondering if they could possible buff sulfate. As a Claudia main I love using botany knowledge with it because it’s pretty good at making self care a bit faster. At the same time I wish self care was a little bit better alone if not having another feature to it. Like maybe they could make it so it’s not affected by…

Reworking Ghost Face into more Stealth Oriented (and net stronger)
What my rework is trying to Achieve: To make GF more unique from Myers and other Instant down killers by massively buffing his ability to ambush and weakening his ability to stockpile marked progress then Instantly apply exposed mid-chase. To remove GF being punished for injuring survivors and thus make ambush -> hit ->…

Improve Totem Spawn Logic
I’d like to see a change to totem spawn logic in Dead by Daylight that would be healthier for overall gameplay, especially for killers relying on Hex perks. Right now, totem placement can feel extremely inconsistent. They sometimes spawn right next to generators, on open hills, or in highly visible areas. Making them easy…

Perk Description Update Feedback
Please leave your feedback for 9.5.0's perk wording updates here. Thank you!

Event idea
I havent really thought too far into this, but how about an event where survivors would have to search the area for multiple generator parts before generators can be fixed fully? I feel like that would be cool to do in my opinion. Something new to do

(Concept) Killer: The Veil Huntress
Design: A slim, average-height elf (approx. 1.75–1.80 m), who at first glance can almost be mistaken for a survivor. Build: slim, slightly athletic, with an unassuming silhouette Face: pale, emotionless, with faintly glowing eyes Clothing: a simple dark cloak with light leather gear — practical and subtle Weapon: an…

Praise for the Trickster rework promotion
I'm saying this as someone whose most hated killer is Trickster: I love how this whole thing was handled. I'm not talking about the technical aspects of the rework or the map, I'm talking about all the stuff surrounding it, and that this happened at all. All the new music, the lyric video, the merch, a new survivor, a new…

What's going on with pallets?
Every time I run to a pallet I wait for the killer to get close and when he's close enough to stun all of a sudden my prompt to drop the pallet completely disappears, I can almost never drop a pallet on a killer as of lately and I'm wondering why it's extremely frustrating and I haven't had this issue since before like…
-
Please Let Killers Abandon
I'm so tired of horrible matches where I feel totally powerless as Killer and I've lost before the match even begins because of perk/power/map/MMR matchups. I no longer have faith that BHVR can fix these problems, so just let me go next without having to DC like Survivors can.

Blood Moon discussion
So now that Blood Moon is almost over… how many prestiges were you able to complete? Are you guys happy with the event?

Favorites
Hi, I wanted to know if there's a way to select my favorite characters, both killers and survivors, so I don't have to search for them through the entire list. It would be great if they appeared at the very top.

(Concept) The Butcher a tracker killer
Name: The Butcher Look: a big and wide fat killer with butcher clothes covered in blood heads on his side tied to his waist Weopon: a Bloody Cleaver Animations: when he hits a survivor he Sniff the blade when he eats one of the meat piles he gets on his knees slams the Cleaver in the ground and he grabs meat from the pile…

(Concept idea) - Could Frieren be a killer in DBD?
I've been thinking about this during the Grimore when I saw The Judgement having a spear as a weapon and thought (maybe Frieren can be a legendary skin for the Judgement). And that ultimately made me think about the idea of what happens if Frieren enters the Fog. If you don't know who Frieren is, she is from Frieren beyond…

The Exhaustion perks problem needs to be adressed.
So lately I have been running in to perks like sprint burst, lithe etc. The other exhaustion perks are mostly fine while smash hit being the best designed exhaustion perk. But the perks i want to talk about are sprint burst and lithe. I"ll get right to the chase. They take ZERO SKILL AND REQUIRMENT TO ACTIVATE WHILE OTHER…

Nice new meta
Congrats BHVR to make this happen.

S tier killer camps hook till death
This Dracula is a joke, spends the entire game chasing other survivors, gets 5 hooks and one death, I'm over on the other side of the map while this is going on ripping through gens, he finally comes after me after he gets his first kill, hooks me and camps hook until I die, other survivors tried to come save me this time…

Deleting BHVR account and what it means for my steam account
I started playing DBD in May 2025, and linked my steam to my BHVR account 2 months later. About a month ago I also linked an old epic games account from my friend but it's kind of sketchy so I'd rather have that account not linked to my account. I tried to make a ticket already considering the unlinking (I'm aware of loss…

Many characters lack personality; Game visual is dull; Graphics are dated
Many of the older killers and survivors are just stoic, mute, and expressionless. Yet every licensed killer in recent memory has voice lines, character, "pazzaa" (italian for mad), and SOME personality. There's a lot of backstory filled into these killers, like the spirit, but we don't see this on screen. You would only…

Diversity and Inclusion
For a game company that openly prides itself on being diverse and inclusive to appease it's diverse and inclusive community I find it ironic that when just about anybody comes to the forums to make suggestions that would diversify gameplay with hopes that the community be inclusive of said ideas we actually get the exact…

New anti camp perk
I'm putting this in here so I can other peoples thoughts on this, but a perk that simply gives a injured surv endurance for 10 seconds after unhooking another surv, will stop killers from getting free downs on survs that are forced to save another surv about to go into 2nd stage or death. I can't see this perk being…

Try and negotiate with Capcom for Pragmata license
Please. It's way too good of an opportunity to pass from. Besides, you two have a fairly good relationship since you have 2 Resident Evil licenses.

Mouse sensitivity adjustment on PC
Hi! I have been playing DBD on and off with my friends for some time but every time I get back I am annoyed that the mouse sensitivity has still not been fixed. The sensitivity setting is especially annoying on the killer. When I set the sensitivity to 0% it is still too hight. In the space I would like to view to turn 180…

Overly Strong Perks
I thought perks got nerfed when they become meta or are too strong. Where is the nerf to aura reading perks for killers? Sure there are players that argue that they're not even that strong but I don't actually think that's true. You take new Michael (who can bring you to the exposed status within seconds of stalking) and…

What sucks most about this game
4ks and 0ks. And unfortunately they are the most common results. As surv a 4k is usually a steamroll, and it sucks, you can tell maybe a third of the way through a game that gens are not getting finished and at that point, why even bother? Aside from trying to squeeze a few more BP out of the match? Likewise as a killer,…

New player survey asking about anti cheat
Make sure you hit this topic guys, and encourage others to do so. Might be a bit naive of me but if they are surveying for feedback about combatting cheating we need to make our discontent known so hopefully something happens. Not that we don't already to that on the forums (an awful lot recently) but every little helps.…

Cancer awareness ribbon charms

Springtrap big review (very big one)
Hi there! I just noticed that my review was erased with the Animatronic PTB, so I am sharing it one more time for the community due the fact that lots of you share the same points of view in this topic of FNAF spirit in Springtrap, the power, etc. Of course it's been a while, the PTB and this discussion already ended but I…

Hire Almo back now.
We need the game to go back to its older nature, I'm not saying for it to happen instantly either. Either design an older iteration for veteran players or start to slowly go back to an era without as much restriction. We need a far more mature mode in this "mature" game. The game has become a button holding simulator for…

Dead by Daylight Chapter Pitch – “Outcasts”
License: Wednesday Survivor: Wednesday Addams Wednesday wouldn’t be your typical “help the team” survivor. The idea is she plays more selfish/smart and rewards people who stay calm instead of panic. Perks: Deadpan After being injured, you don’t make noise for a few seconds and your scratch marks don’t show up consistently.…

New cheater tactic found?
Hello, is there a new cheater tactic where cheaters act like they lag for the entire game? He did that for at least 5 minutes. that perk said some code about Blast Mine

Diminishing Returns Healing perks that we could buff.
So with Diminishing Returns coming in a couple of weeks BHVR can finally buff a lot of perks with low pick rate because others perks have been simply better. These are my suggestions for some Healing perks Better than New is currently 16% but we could buff it to 30%. If stacked with another it would go down to 15%.…

Crashing Problem

Everything I would change in DBD
Reasoning for everything in 1 post: DBD has had the same meta for literally 10 years Surv side. I'm bored. Some will have long stats with explanations, others will just be an idea that a killer, perk, or QoL needs. I will try to respond to comments for discussion on good/bad ideas/give more reasoning for changes. But I…

Struggeling on hook

New Chapter Concept
Not sure how many people like or have seen Dead Silence, but I feel as if a chapter based off of it would be pretty cool. Killer would obviously be Mary Shaw, and maybe the survivor would be the main character Jamie. A map idea would be the church grounds in the ending. Since the movie is based around silence and…

Upcoming Krasue Nerf
Since the last official stat drop revealing that Krasue has a 67.1% kill rate, what is the timeline the community should be expecting her nerf? This killer is extremely oppressive at high mmr, especially with her Chicken Head addon which causes all survivors to start infected coupled with dissolution. In addition to her…

Forsaken Boneyard Dead Branches
These past few weeks I've been doing a deep dive on Map collision, mostly invisible walls or things that are missing collision. I figured while I was at it, I could drop a post on here to talk about something I really really really dislike when I play Huntress/other ranged killers. Both the Forsaken Boneyard maps have…

Trapper desperately needs a rework
Since they're allergic to buffing Trapper in this PTB, how about a dedicated rework for the poster boy Trapper? I could give suggestions like making him throw bear traps which is straightforward but I think the community here are more creative with thinkering powers to that aspect. I just want to push the ball and see it…

Double Speed Blight
The nerfs coming to blight are fine and all but base blight isn’t the problem in the slightest, it’s rat and crow. Without them he’s fine, balanced even, but they remove all form of counter play because he’s simply just too fast to make a counter move you’re basically just gambling for him to make a misplay which the best…

Springtrap rework idea
Ok so as Scott Jund had said about this PTB is springtrap's buffs don't address the thematic issue…sure he's balanced and fun but he just isn't "thematic." So what it a big theme of FNAF? Security cams, and doors, that's been a staple in most of the titles of the franchise…especially the cameras. Which he has in DBD but…
