Why are we killing healthy, not the greatest perks? - furtive chase
BHVR! why are you making BALANCED perk that convices people to go for the obsession (different guy that was not hooked/unhooked) a stealth perk? Furtive chase was really balanced and somewhat good for synergies with friends till the end/nemesis? This became one of my favorite perk after the buff, now you are killing effect…

A question about the PTB Furtive Chase
In the PTB the perk furtive chase has been nerfed, going from a speed and undetectable perk to a terror radius shrinking perk, and its effect will max out at a 50% decrease of the terror radius size, so for most killers its 32 → 16 meters if I am not mistaken. How does this work with the monitor and abuse perk, does it…

The more I think about it, the more I realize DbD's balance mathematically doesn't make sense.
Match starts. Survivors split and work on 4 gens. One gets found and gets chased. At this point, from my observations, 3 gens almost always pop at the same time or very soon after the down Here, 1 survivor on hook, 3 free. If they just decide to crank a gen, and the next chased survivor can survive 90 seconds (or less…

No, the game should not be balanced around extremely high skilled players
One of the absolute worst ways to balance dbd, in regards to keeping new players and improving the experience of the AVERAGE player, would be to focus on feedback from players that are at the absolute height of the player skill set. Because their experience in the game on a daily basis is going to be miles away from what…

New Suggestions
Hello DbD Team, I am a returning player who first started in 2017, and I wanted to share my feedback I would appreciate it if you would consider a slight increase in the spacing between pallets, and in exchange, increase the number of available windows. Many current maps feel very tight, yet they seem to lack enough…

There need to be better ways of telling new killers that camping is bad
This is an observation I had yesterday while playing against a clearly new killer. They didn't appear to be camping just to be an #########, it seemed that they simply didn't know any better. Then it hit me, I myself didn't know what camping and tunneling meant when I was new and I only learned from the community. There…

Streamers continue their campaign against anti-tunnel changes
I'm tired of all the streamers, most are main killers, running these kinds of campaigns to sabotage help for survivors. Excuse my English, I'm Italian.

As a new Killer I feel so screwed next patch.. not only is there a ton of pallets now but also survivors are getting hard buffed. I already dont have any killers prestiged, I have no good killer perks because they take forever to unlock on other killers, but im also playing against thousand hour survivor 4 man groups with…

Don't make the match details screen separate from the settings
While I like the look of the new settings menu, there is no need to make it separate from the match details screen. I personally use the tab key for survivor event powers, and obviously the new update would force me to change that keybind. At the very least, make it a setting so people can choose to have settings and match…

Please add a bit more to Blighted Springtrap.
Currently, there isn't much that justifies Blighted Springtrap being Ascended rarity. When compared to a skin like Inoculated Xenomorph, another blighted skin, Springtrap's variation seems a little underwhelming. Aside from VFX and SFX and the arm on the abdomen, there isn't much to justify the cost. Maybe adding a voice…

About the quests.
I may be going insane or delusional but arent the new quests more grindy since the last battle pass ? Daily quests jumped to 4, but the objectives got much harder (10 skill checks instead of 3) and now require 1-2 games. That in of itself is fine but i looked at the milestones and they changed the rift fragment amount on…

Tome 4 "Handyman" Challenge Does Not Work With New Maps
SUMMARY OF THE ISSUE: Tome 4's Handyman challenge reads as follows: Despite fully depleting a map to 0 charges this match and escaping with the perk equipped, this challenge did not trigger. I believe that maps are still being counted through their old system of depletion rather than charges. I would guess that keys likely…

Is there a worse skill-based matchmaking system than what DBD currently has?
Players who spend more time in chase are more likely to be sacrificed. (lowers MMR.) Players who try to save their teammates are more likely to be sacrificed than those who play selfishly. (lowers MMR.) The abandon feature lets survivors void games they would otherwise die in with no change in their MMR. Players who hide…

Playstation Store (PS4/PS5) is still using old screenshots of Dead by Daylight from 2017-2020
Not sure if you're aware of this BHVR, but the Dead by Daylight photos on the PS Store haven't been updated and is still currently using screenshots/pictures of the game from 5-8 years ago, this is very confusing to new players/casuals thinking about buying the game

Mirrored Illusion
Me and many people like fun perks for a little bit of change to our games. Mirrored Illusion is one of the most unique perks rn and honestly has much potential. The current state is very underwhelming and has no reason to use it. no killer falls for it bcs it has an obvious glow, no movement, no sound and easy to see…

Por otro lado, la finalidad…

Solo queue is hurt again, buffing swf

Filter the way that feedback is collected from the PTB
There needs to be some way to authenticate a player's feedback from the PTB, because even in the dedicated space for collecting PTB feedback, there are all sorts of takes from people who, in their own words, haven't played on the PTB. That seems kind of counterproductive, no? Maybe collect feedback from an interface that's…

Adds and Fixes/ideas
Some might disagree but I will say. Can the repairing and healing be a tad bit faster. Not hyper speed but! Faster than it is cause it seems like its way to slow. Not to make the game to easy for a survivor even though it truly isnt lol but! Maybe a 3 or 5 second aura here and there. Sorta like a SONAR. I know killers have…

Why anti-healing perks and addons are getting nerfed while devs buff healing perks?
Hi! Hope everyone is doing fine. This is not a "Us vs Them" post but i have a genuine question for the devs and the community: Why perks like Sloppy Butcher, Gift of Pain, Deathbound, Leverage and many other perks and killer addons that are meant to slowdown heals are handicapped or just plain nerfed while we see every…

What DBD needs the most is better tutorials — a suggestion
I feel like many balance problems the game currently has honestly depend on the completely lackluster tutorials and guides it offers. Many mechanics and general rules of this game are now clear and well-known to everybody who has played this game for a while, but honestly this game is not intuitive at all for new players,…

Survivors judge other survivors based on the character they are playing
Something happened to me a while ago that's still bothering me. I don't have a main survivor; I always play in rotation because I like variety. When I went into the queue that day, it was Sable's turn in my rotation. I don't usually read the pre-game chat, but for some reason, I did that day. And I'm glad I did, because…

Weeping Angel from Doctor Who
I thinking about this: The killer is moving around, but in the map there are some "stone angels" too and you can teleport to them like the unknown. The angels just there and moving closely to the nearest survivor like nemesis zombies but only when you not watching them. So it's a nemesis zombie, unknown teleportation,…

Should using the survivor part of killer powers be a conspicuous action?
Seeing this with pinhead on the ptb where survivors with elusive and endurance can literally solve the box for free everytime because he cant chain them. And when ya think about it a bit deeper. Its just weird killer powers are excluded from the conspicuous stuff. Is a survivor grabbing the box not asking to be considered…

Rebelancing options for gen speed perks, gen items and heal perks
It's not a secret that gen speed went a little bit our of hand. While increasing repair time would be pretty boring, adjusting the time it's possible to decrease that time is a must. Same with altruistic heals that are completely out of control while self-healing might need a very slight buff. Autodidact → Decrease healing…

Killrates are deceitful.
Do not balance the game around killrates. A lot of players die when they should not. Balance the game around the optimal players. Why? Balancing for the casual players means in high level play it's insanely lopsided. There are times a killer deserves to lose if they are playing poorly. Same goes for survivors. Do not make…

Temporary killer bloodbath that may lead to future success?
I have hope! The more I think about the current attempt to naturally make the killer spread hooks, the more I like it and I think that it's an idea that will change the meta in a way that will benefit both killers and survivors. It will not restrict the "agency" of the players (other than shift incentives), and…

An idea about QoL for the game
Recent discussions with @cogsturning and some other players has made me wonder about what some actual good QoL changes might be. The most debated topic: Tunneling. As has been the case ever since the 9.2.0 PTB, the discussion around tunneling, prevention of said tunneling, and not being too punishing has been like a…

Dc penalty
please remove the dc penalty. If a killer or teammates are doing nothing to progress the game I think it’s safe to move on to the next game. I still think dc penalties are ridiculous given the recent killers I have gone up against have been complete asshats. It’s annoying. Fix your game, fix the balance, fix everything! I…
