Please Consider Adding a South African Server – High Latency Is Making DBD Unplayable
I’m a long-time Dead by Daylight player from South Africa, and I’d like to raise awareness about the severe latency issues we face due to the lack of a nearby server. Right now, we are routed to Europe, resulting in ping ranging from 180ms to 220ms — sometimes higher. This high latency makes precision-based gameplay…

Lessen the gap between the killers.
Can we just do something that would make the Atlantic ocean between Low-tier and high-tier killers smaller? Many killers need changes. I would like to list some ideas. Give Nurse a blindness effect while holding M2. It is a small change, but it would make the games against Nurse much better. I dont think it would affect…

Disconnected due Internet problem!
I just had 2 matches with my Internet going down and it counts as DC…I got downgraded 2 times cause of nothing, it was out of my control, i'm frustrated and diss on your system. Do something about this BHVR!!!😡

Day one of The Krasue Arc
So day one is done and i got P4 (I probably should’ve but Krasue I have P3 on like most of my killers just because of bloodweb RNG) one of my games I was just not having any fun so i just DC’d so for the rest of my games i just decided to play perkless to calm down. I don’t know why but playing perkless legitimately is 10…

Does Abandon manipulate stats negatively?
With Abandon, stats are artificially skewed. It seems that, at least through the Stat tracker, the abandoned trials are completely discarded. Characters I'm certain that have abandoned hundreds of trials are listed as having played significantly less. It does not alter my pick rate, hours played, or even bloodpoints…

Post-game chat abuse
My personal opinion is that BHVR should just eliminate post-game chat altogether because a vast majority of interactions are toxic, in my experience. I just finished a match where someone told me to off myself after they lost. This type of thing happens fairly frequently. I reported them, as I always do for this kind of…

Kindred Base-kit?
I have been thinking about this for a while, Borrowed Time was able to become base-kit, why can't Kindred? It's a great information perk but I don't personally think it would be overpowered to have it implemented into the game as a basic mechanic. I was wondering if anyone has any arguments against it?

Can't access Dead By Daylight Stats website
I'm suddenly having an issue with the stats website. When I try to open it, all I see is a blank white page with just the cookies message. I've tried different browsers and my phone, but it's the same. Does anyone know what's going on or how to fix it?

Don’t Forget About The Hag! – Rework Ideas
I believe that The Hag is currently one of the weakest Killers in the game. When it comes to buffing The Hag, many players suggest simply increasing her movement speed to 4.6 m/s. While that would certainly make her feel better to play, I don’t think it would fundamentally solve her problems. In my opinion, bringing The…

Regarding the future of "The Krasue"
Finished my assessment of quick fixes that will help Krasue feel more fleshed out and have more fun interactions on both sides of play based on my extensive playtime on her as someone who personally finds the design frustrating as a Killer & Survivor player: Leech 5 charges per second drain -> 3 charges per second drain…

Add option to make your stats public
Basically, add an option to make your stats profile public. This allows you to share your profile for other people to view. Additionally, if this option is enabled, you should be able to view that person's profile in your match history. For example, this is a match from the match history with the names of all the players.…

Allow custom loading screens and use skin backgrounds
The New yun jin skin is great. I've been asking for a sexy Yun Jin skin since release. The skin has a really great art to it, and it made me realize you guys put all this effort into skin splash arts, but theres no where else to see these. ONLY when you buy them. Please let us shuffle art from skins we own for our loading…

What's going on with the game anyway?
I have a lot of questions. Why introduce an anti-tunnel system, etc.? What's the point of playing as a survivor and learning how to play? I can easily tell the assassin about their limited position. Honestly, there are a lot of problems without this, starting with the fact that the developers don't seem to play DBD. There…

How do i keep new players playing?
For whatever reason two friends tried DBD again. They played around 100 hours two years ago, but got frustrated and quit. We are not doing well and im worried they will stop quickly again. I try to take aggro, but then the killer leaves and downs them pretty fast. Shoulder the burden gives them some time, but bc of the…

Blidness is just an effect that only exist to make SoloQ more miserable
After playing some chaos suffle I encounter a lot of killers with third seal. It is a totem, yes, but the times I've reached second state in my first because my teammates didn't know where I was is ridiculous. A swf team doesn't have this kind of problem because they can tell where they are, but with randoms? I just wish…

I think it's time for Killer bots
In general I think we should have killer bots in customs and as a dc bot in 1v4, technically I think we should have a dedicated bots mode for new players before going against sweats, You guys have coding for majority of the killers, if certain ones don't work yet, just make them m1 bots until you can code them, I hope…

Oni buffs suggestions to make him feel better to play as.
Oni during blood fury is one of the most amazing killers to play as, however he has many annoying issues. The need for a basic attack on early game is at the center of this, as sometimes survivors will just keep pre dropping pallets and holding w making it so your power is impossible to get which feels incredibly…

Please make Game afoot work on killer power breaks
As the title says, the perk game afoot would be SOOO much better if it did work with killer power breaks(Bubba/Billy chainsaw, Nemy whip, etc.). In fact, it used too i dont remeber when it stopped working, but it just suddenly stopped working with killer power breaks. So plz BHVR fix or rebuff this perk, it's not so strong…

The Strange Case of Shoulder the Burden, the META perk that nobody uses.
Remembering back to when Doomed Course released, this perk was easily the most hyped part of the chapter, a perk that let people trade hook states around, which could help Survivors keep their teammates alive if used correctly. There were two prevailing opinions, on one side you had killer mains decrying this perk as…

Is Optiscaler Whitelisted?
I'm a big fan of upscalers, but DBD has only two: FSR1 (simple bilinear upscaler that gives a waterpainterly look to the image) and XeSS (an old version of it, don't recall which) and while these options have high compatibility with older hardware, DLSS has been around for 7 years now and RTX GPU's make up a large market…

Nintendo Switch 2 version
Good afternoon, Is the team at BHVR working on a Nintendo Switch 2 version of DBD. The console is powerful enough to handle a better version of the game, and it desperately needs it. I can't handle 15 fps and 720 much longer. Thank you

DEVs please bring back TRYKS (Jezable) - Killer and or Survivor
Tryks doesn’t vanish - she leaves traces. Like a rare alignment of the Moon, Saturn, and Neptune, her return is quiet but inevitable. Some stars don’t fall away… they circle back. Catch her smiley face in the triple conjunction on June 23rd. Copy in web browser: https://www.tiktok.com/@frickingnick…

Please do something about survivor items disabling the lobby animations!
Over the years theyve been making a ton of cool idle animations for survivors in the lobby. However these do not play if you are holding an item which is a massive shame imo. Theres no reason why this should be the case, at least in the matchmaking lobby. I think an elegant solution would be to be like springtrap, whenever…

Nerf Dracula please and thanks
too strong, boring, cant see wolf over any tiles(meanwhile they can see 3rd person and see everything AND orbs to further increase their chances of mindlessly outplaying you), can outplay you at any pallet since his power goes through holes and over every single tile. you can never out play them because every time you do…

the nemesis should be buffed for normal mode too
There should be 3 zombies instead of 2 in 1v4.

The Krause has vanished.
I’m sure that all of y’all already know that The Krasue has vanished and has already gotten overshadowed by Vecna two the squeakquel, and I think there’s a variety of reasons as to why that is. Don’t get me wrong, but I love a lot of things about this killer. Her lore is great, her music work is phenomenal, and even the…

Tryks, Written in the Constellations
Tryks doesn’t vanish - she passes through. Through silence. Through distance. Through the thin places between moments. And everywhere she’s been, something stays behind… footprints pressed into the snow, a pulse in the dark, a presence that refuses to fade. Like a rare celestial alignment, her return isn’t rushed or…

Can we revert clown already
All the changes to him were entirely unneeded and he was one of the few perfectly balanced killers before you randomly ruined him in the walking dead chapter decreasing the skill required to play him massively and nerfing him overall

I got a new killer idea
killer will be a spider and we can give skins to it like toxic skins, fire skins green toxic skins for is sounds when he’s close to a survivor will be I think of a devil talking voice for him when he on u and a evil sound go with it for him when u on hooks small spiders will run all over you to scare you and he a big…

JoJo's Bizarre Adventure Collab Would Be Cool
Dio For his ability first having to hit a survivor giving haste then if he gets stunned gains his ability charge for the world where it's 2.5 sec of stopped time and he gains another charge after hitting enough survivors plus cooldown for charges regenerating every 25 second is fair mostly plus the mori and survivors only…

Bodyblocking and holding the game hostage - not so black and white?
The longer I think about it the more unsure I am about it, so maybe someone can quote a dev on the matter. What happened: Game where killer didn't play. We just did the gens and then went to escape and go for next. Or at least so we all thought, but in cases like this I always cleanse all 5 totems, because I did encounter…

Prestige System – From Locked Skins to Visual Effects
Personally, I’ve always imagined the Prestige blood not as a fixed cosmetic skin, but as a visual effect. Core Idea Players can equip any outfit they want. The Prestige blood is applied as a separate overlay effect. The blood effect would be: Toggleable on/off Independent from specific cosmetics Why This Matters Gives…

Trapper Rework – Improving Tempo While Preserving His Identity
The Trapper is one of the most iconic killers in Dead by Daylight, but in the current state of the game he feels heavily punished by the overall speed and generator pressure. His reliance on long setup time often results in losing momentum before meaningful pressure can begin. Core Problem Heavy early-game setup Low chase…

beginner or training friendly DBD alternative
You know, I really suck at DBD, but I play a lot of Roblox and stumbled upon a easier to play alternative that takes a little less skill, even if it is a little different. It's called Murderthon. I've been playing for a bit, and it really has helped me get the basics down in DBD (minus skill checks) and I feel like it has…

SOME things were NOT 80s and I shall spare my words as no doubt peeps get offended BUT please be aware the 80s was different to NOW. Some scenes when I did watch or google it,…

My idea for the new killer grimiore
A killer that uses divine weapons made of fog and the shards and maybe it could be that it was some type of war veteran who was blown up after a grenade was thrown breaking through the glass at a church taking shrapnel and sacrificed himself and he was ignored and never thanked so he became vengeful as the entity saves him…

Mettre la possibilité de reconnexion suite à une déconnexion.
Bonjour, Pourquoi n'y a t-il pas de possibilité de reconnexion suite à une déconnexion ? En effet, si la connexion n'a pas été stable pendant 2 secondes, l'hôte se déconnecte et le joueur se fait expulser de la partie. D'une part, il perd ses points de la partie, deuxièmement il se fait ban comme punition. Mais ce n'est…

Do you know under which conditions the unhook option is available?
Our entire team was taken down within about a minute by Mike Myers, and the game didn’t even give me the option to try to unhook myself. I still ended up losing points because it was apparently considered “dying on purpose. This pisses me off. This game even gives me a penalty when the game disconnects due to a crash,…

Please don't forget about Fog Vials
The game desperately needed new items for survivors and when we finally got Fog Vials after 9 years, they got basically destroyed after a few weeks. They really need some kind of buff, for example: The number of charges can be increased from 2 to unlimited again, but each use would increase the cooldown by 10s (let's say…

I think it's time we add more Abandon options.
Perfect example for abandon options is when all generators are completed, the Killer can Abandon, or if a Survivor is slugged for 90 Seconds, than they can Abandon(Like in the anti-slug 9.2.0 update but an Abandon option instead) and this timer doesn't reset, countless times on Killer do I have to wait for survivors to…
