Locations of popping generators are not shown properly
SUMMARY OF THE ISSUE: Whenever a generator pops, it should show the location of the popped gen to the killer for five or so seconds. In the current patch, about half of the times this does not happen. I know that this is intentional for cases where a gen pops very close by. However, this bug also happens when a gen is…

Can't switch to other killers while in a queue
SUMMARY OF THE ISSUE: Normally when you are searching for a match as killer, you can still switch to other killers in order to change their loadout, for example. However in the current patch, whenever you click on the loadout button, the game automatically switches you back to the killer you are queueing up with. This bug…

What if hooks were blocked for the first 30 seconds?
If you play both Killer and Survivor, you'll understand that tunneling (repeatedly hooking the same Survivor three times) is only effective for the Killer if the Survivors enable it by unhooking too quickly. Since Survivor have 70 seconds per hook stage, a lot of that time is best spent repairing Generators in order to…

How would you all feel about a Killer Vs Killer PVE Mode?
Most gamemodes have focused on the regular game and minus 2v8 has not really been that big of a hit, now what if we got a 1v1 with 2 Killers being put against each other and they must compete to get hooks or kills or heck maybe something else. It would be kinda funny to see a Killer vs Killer land grab game mode and the 2…

Dead zones more like pallet zones.
this changes has completely ruined the game for m1 killers. There is no point playing any other killer than the best killers to win.

Please, give survivors immunity to Krasue's spit when they eat a mushroom
Is so easy to infect survivors with the spit with the stupid autoaim (something that should be deleted), but the fact that removing the infection takes forever and Krasue can just spit to infect them again is ridiculous. Also, increase the cooldown even more for spits, is so fast even after the nerfs

Twins Swapping Bug
SUMMARY OF THE ISSUE: When playing Twins, swapping from Victor to Charolette will randomly cause a "ghost" bug. You can't see Charolette's weapon, but can still down players. You cannot pick up players or interact with anything (breaking pallets, relighting totems, anything). Swapping to Victor does not fix the problem.…

Spacebar refusing to register during gen repair or healing
I'm losing my mind. I normally don't go to forums or seek community help because I typically can figure things out on my own. But, after looking it up on the internet and attempting to scour these forums, I cannot seem to fix this issue. I've even changed buttons from spacebar in order to get what I want done. However, it…

#rework the trickster's ascendant skis
Please rework it, it's very disappointing. The eyes aren't animated, it has no new dialogue, no animations or sounds, nothing new. You can't leave the main tome skin in this state, especially considering that the previous trickster ascendant skin had special dialogue and animations. I am a very dedicated trickster and…

I Want To See The Devs Playing This Game
For a long time, there's been a schism between Devs and Community for this game. Like, an AWFUL long time! So, what I want to see is the Devs playing this game in a stream, and not just any Dev. I don't want Manny or another Community Manager like the Reddit Guy playing the game on stream. No, no, no, no, no! I want the…

Pallet Density Rollback
Hello. I just want to say the pallet density update was a mistake. So many maps have been added lots of new pallets, almost most killers have trouble getting a hit on survivors when they can just run to safe pallets and drop one immediately. After about 10 pallets have been destroyed, when a killer has just hit a survivor…

Us vs Them is killing the game (current patches)
I know there has been billions of forums talking about this but we really need to stop getting at each other's throats for things the developers add to the game that fuels the fire. I need to also mention first that I'm not a killer or survivor main, I play both having thousands of hours of experiences in both sides so I…

I want a unique hinderance-type killer power.
Similar to the Cenobite or the Clown; I want a killer which applies the "hindered" status effect to survivors. I imagine a killer power which is similar to that of 'Moira' from Overwatch 2. If you are familiar with that character, you would know that her M2 attack has an auto-aim feature, which triggers when targets are…

Killer Concept: The Corruptor
The Corruptor is a menacing killer, able to heave a great spear at his victims and displace himself to quickly move around the environment. Using his power, Whispers of the Grave, he can efficiently down and pick up survivors. His perks Hex: Draining Touch, Scourge Hook: Phantom Walk, and Ghastly Omen allow him to hinder…

DBD Talk
I understand DBD is only 20$ but the way the community talks about this game and how much they hate it. Why would someone want to spend 20$ for a test run of DBD. To my understanding its free on Epic games but not everyone has PC. Not only is the 20$ app purchase there are hella in game purchases especially if you want…

Onryo Gain
Is there any plan to buff the killer Onryo? I think this killer is very weak. It's very difficult to land a lethal hit on players. It's very hard to chase them because the killer is not mobile. She's my favorite character, but she's weak. I get frustrated every time I play her.

Buff Skull Merchant
Exactly one year ago, you murdered Skull Merchant. You promised us a rework, you said her state would be temporary, that she'd be reworked in a year. Clearly that wasn't the case. But, I get it, this has been a busy year. Things come up, plans go awry. The biggest issue that I have isn't that Skull Merchant was in this…

Names containing special characters (e.g, %/$/&) get cut off
SUMMARY OF THE ISSUE: Names that contain some special characters, such as a %, in their name will get cut off at it spot. I have quite a silly name but it gets cut off because it has a % symbol in it. My name on Steam is "2% Milf Drinker" but in game it is now always just "2". Moving the % causes it to cut off at different…

Don't trust companies with 'Health Updates'
It's a blatant lie to safe face. That's all it is. No matter what industry it comes from, don't believe in their lies. I truly hope that dbd's 'health' announcement tought you all a valuable lesson not to listen to the words of a corporate PR.

Please change the map rotation, it is genuinely miserable
Most people's least favorite maps in the game currently have a boosted map chance. This has persisted for months and I'm sure enough data has been gathered on these maps if that was the reason for it. If anything, boost the realms that recently got changes, I just want to see something different it's actually hindering my…

Thoughts on potential future musical collaborations?
With the slipknot and iron maiden collabs being as successful as they are/were I imagine that bhvr wouldn't be opposed to adding more bands/musical groups into the game. What are some bands you'd like to see integrated or think would fit theme of dbd? I personally think there's a decent chance of seeing the mascots from…

The pallet density change is making the game unbearable to play right now
The killer role has never felt so bad in such a long time, any killer below A tier feels so bad to play due to the cycle this change created: increased pallet density drives lower tier killers to become unplayable, high tier killers starts to be played more with sweaty builds, survivors are pushed to use more sweaty builds…

New Freddy bug I just found...
There's a pretty annoying Freddy bug I just found that happens in Azarov's Resting Place in which when you teleport to the gen to the right side of shack, you get stuck in between a obstacle and the gen, and you can't get out, the only way to escape this is to teleport to another gen, yet every time you teleport to this…

Cursor sliding on dual monitor setup
When launching Dead by Daylight and in the lobby/menus, every time I drag my cursor to my second screen (the no-DBD screen), it keeps sliding back to the DBD screen, even when the mouse isn't moving.

Is BHVR trying to self-sabotage?
What is going on lately with their past and current updates? Where is the promised quality of life? You promised to do that this year but there is not a single QoL from my recollection. The rift pass is absolutely awful too. Look how they massacred the Dredge ghost skin. The free pass barely has anything other than…

Pyramidhead trails of torment

Nemesis infection should do something too
Every other killer has a passive that causes afflictions. Dredge, wesker, plague, freddy krueger, pinhead, onryo and now krasue. Why is the nemesis the outlier of the group? Can't you at least make the zombies more aware of infected survivor's whereabouts or something?

Which Original DBD Killer would you want in Mortal Kombat?
Mortal Kombat has had horror icons in their games like Freddy, Jason, and Alien so when the next MK game comes out (hopefully Injustice 3 comes out before MK13) which DBD killer would you pick to be a guest character? For me it would have to be Blight with Unknown and Dredge coming in at second and third place…

People really hate lightborn

Milestone quests
So right now there is a killer milestone quest that is: Hook survivors. My suggestion is to change it so instead of counting hooks, it counted hook stages. Because sometimes at the end of the match instead of doing a mori, we are pushed to hook the last survivor so as that hook counts towards the quest. Also some hooks are…

Can we actually do something about nearly every game being a 1v3 at 5 gens?
Literally every game I've played E V E R Y G A M E has been tunnel 1 player from go. Survivors maybe get 2-3 gens done MAX and then killer slugs for the 4k. 'It's the best strategy' no argument here it makes the game easy mode for killers but that's not the kind of game DBD should be am I wrong? And before all the 'LoOp…

Burn out?
According to stats, I feel absolute fine playing both roles now, but mentally I am exhausted.

When I play survivor, I rarely play against person itself,…

Perk Description Rewording
Taking an example out of the perk [Agitation], in-game, the description reads "While transporting a body, your Terror Radius is increased by 12% and you have 18% Haste." When entering the search bar for perks related to "carrying" a survivor, said perk does not show up, so the description should be reworded as "While…
